"THEREFORE....(Christians)
"do not be partakers or have a share in" ( the wrath to
come) with... them. (Ephesians 5:3-7)"
But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not
even be named among you (Christians), as this is not fitting for
saints; neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse
jesting, which are not fitting but, rather the giving of thanks.
For this "you know", that no fornicator, unclean person, nor
covetous man, who is an idolater, has any "inheritance"
(CHRISTIAN....not about salvation but rewards) in the kingdom of
Christ and God.
Let no one "deceive you" with EMPTY words, (we are ALL "worthy"
of Christ - we are ALL.. His bride obedient or disobedient,
faithful and unfaithful, repentant and unrepentant, soiled and
unsoiled) for because of these things the wrath of God comes
upon the sons of disobedience. (It could come upon you too if
you do not repent)
Proverbs 3:11,12
My child, don’t reject the LORD’s discipline, and don’t be upset
when he corrects you. For the LORD corrects those He loves, just
as a father corrects a child in whom he delights.
Hebrews 12:6
The Lord disciplines EVERYONE He loves. He severely
punishes EVERYONE He accepts as His child."
Revelation 3:19
Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline.(no excuses)
SO........ be earnest and repent.
Revelation 2:4,5
Yet I hold this against you: (Church - members)You have forsaken
the love you had at first. Consider how far you have fallen!
Repent and do the things you did at first. If you.... DO NOT
(Christians) repent, I will come to you.... "and remove" your
lampstand from its place.
Revelation 2:21-23 (to the Church)
I have given her (and My servants) time to repent of her (their)
immorality, but she (they) are unwilling. So I will cast her on
a bed of suffering, and I will make those who commit adultery
with her suffer intensely, (Great Tribulation) UNLESS they
repent of her ways. I will strike her children dead.
THEN...."all the churches" will know that I am He who searches
hearts and minds, AND..... I will repay each of you "according
to your deeds."
Revelation 2:3-4
WAKE UP! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have
found "your deeds unfinished" in the sight of My God.
REMEMBER, therefore, what you have received and heard; hold it
fast, and REPENT. But.... IF YOU DO NOT wake up, I (Jesus) will
come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will
come to you. Yet you have.... "a few people" in Sardis who have
not soiled their clothes...
"THEY"........ will walk with Me, dressed in white, BECAUSE THEY
(wake up, repent, hold fast) are "WORTHY".
Matthew 10:37,38 (worthy of heaven by His blood but not worthy
of Him)
“Anyone who loves their father or mother more than Me (not His
first love) is not "WORTHY of Me"; anyone who loves their
son or daughter more than me is not WORTHY of me. "WHOEVER does
not" take up their cross and follow Me is NOT...."WORTHY of Me.'
- Jesus
Ephesians 5:31,32
“For this reason.... a man shall leave his father and mother and
be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” This
is a great mystery, but I speak concerning... "Christ and the
Church."
Revelation 3:10 (conditional)
“BECAUSE you have obeyed (some don't) My command to persevere,
(wake up, come out from among them, repent, hold fast) I will
protect you from the great time of testing (Great Tribulation)
that will come upon the whole world to test those who belong to
this world.' - Jesus
Revelation 3:15-22
“I know all the things you do, (Church - believers) that you are
neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one or the other! But
since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will
spit you out of my mouth! (NOT...His bride)
You say, ‘I am rich. I have everything I want. I don’t need a
thing!’ And you don’t realize that you are wretched and
miserable and poor and blind and naked. So I advise you to buy
gold from me—gold that has been purified by fire. Then you will
be rich. Also buy white garments from me so you will not be
shamed by your nakedness, and ointment for your eyes so you will
be able to see.
I correct and discipline EVERYONE I love. So be diligent and
turn (repent) from your indifference.
“Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and
open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together
as friends.
THOSE "who are victorious" will..... sit with Me on my throne,
just as I was victorious and sat with My Father on his throne.
(His bride)
“Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and
understand what he is saying to the churches.”
