For Conscience' Sake! (Book I) By Pastor Bill Taylor A publication of My Father's House, inc. Volume 10/ Issue 11 Prophecy: This is the one I look upon with favor; the one to whom I don’t impute iniquity; the one who has a contrite spirit and trembles at My Word. How could I impute sin to one who trembles to obey Me? How can there be iniquity in the heart of one who seeks to fulfill everything I ask of him, who listens closely when I speak? When I have one who hears Me like Abraham, My friend, I can’t see sin in his heart because he doesn’t have sin in his heart. Men may judge him and think he’s sinning, but I know he’s faithful to Me in all he does. Such a one will do all I ask of him, and every decision he makes prudently. Always there are reasons noble and good behind the things he chooses to do. So if he slips in some little way, that’s inconsequential. Why would I pay attention since even he himself will correct his error and not repeat it? I won’t even note it; I’ve paid the price to forgive him, and he’s forgiven because he trusts in Me. I’ll not impute iniquity to such a man, and woe unto him who does, thus saith the Lord. (Prophecy delivered at “My Father’s House”) For by one offering He’s perfected forever those who are being sanctified. (Heb10:14) This speaks of the perfection of the conscience, as in How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (Heb9:14) For the law made nothing perfect; on the other hand, there’s the bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God. (Heb7:19) For the law, having a shadow of the good things to come, can never with these same sacrifices, which they offer continually year by year, make those who approach perfect (in conscience.) For then would they not have ceased to be offered? For the worshipers, once purified, would have had no more consciousness of sins. (Heb10:1,2) So under the Old Covenant guilt wasn’t done away with “forever” but only temporarily! The law is only a copy of the Spiritual things we receive in Christ as in Who serve the copy and shadow of the heavenly things, as Moses was divinely instructed when he was about to make the tabernacle. For He said, “See that you make all things according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.” (Heb8:5) Since the law is a copy, it doesn’t have the power to do anything except give an indication of what the real thing will look like when it comes. The Old Covenant was given so the Jews would recognize the real thing when Jesus came. If the things given under the Old Covenant could make men perfect, there’d be no reason for the New. For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second. (Heb8:7) So God brought in the New because the Old didn’t do the job. It wasn’t intended to do the job. In a sense the Old Covenant was like John the Baptist preparing the way for the true “Messiah” to come. The Old Covenant prepared the way for the true New Covenant religion in which “perfection” could be accomplished and would come through Christ. If you feel God is out to get you when He’s correcting, then you don’t have a clean conscience. It’s because your conscience condemns you that you think God’s against you. So for God to perfect you, you’re conscience must be clear and your heart clean, meaning you don’t feel like He’s condemning you, but have faith He’s helping you when He does things in the area of correction. One wise thing Job said was “Shall we receive good from God and not adversity?” (Job2:10) If God is good then He does good no matter what things in the immediate may seem like. It’s foolish to trust God when things go well and reject Him when you’re in a hard time. Eliphaz, Job’s first comforter says, “Happy is the man whom God corrects. For God strikes and God heals.” (Job5:17,18) When God puts you through something uncomfortable, your attitude still ought to be He’s doing it for my good. The New Testament agrees. Indeed we count them blessed who endure. You’ve heard of the perseverance of Job and seen the end intended by the Lord--that the Lord is very compassionate and merciful. (Jms5:11) God intended Job to have a good end. If you have faith that God’s working all things together for your good (Rom8:28) then even when you go through adversity you’ll still trust He’s doing you good and you won’t hold it against Him. For this is commendable, if because of conscience toward God one endures grief, suffering wrongfully. For what credit is it if, when you’re beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God. For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps. (1Pt2:19-21) These instructions are intended to help make you Christ-like and every “believer” who reads his bible should know these verses. The problem is when the time comes you’re actually suffering wrongfully, do you remember them then? You’re not a real Christian if when testings come what shows in your behavior isn’t like Jesus. What do you think perfection is? To perfect you God needs to put you in situations where He can show what’s in you isn’t like Jesus so you can repent. How can you make any progress in Christ-likeness until you see the things you need to change? If you’re really in the school of Christ, these verses and all the scriptures can’t be just words to you but must truly affect the way you behave. God must give you opportunities to show whether you’re a doer of His Word or not, like when you do good and suffer patiently, this is commendable before God. (1Pt2:19,20) The way of the Lord is often revealed in enigmas as in comparing seemingly contradictory scriptures! For by one offering He’s perfected forever those who are being sanctified. (Heb10:14) This could be interpreted as “Everything’s already done!” The mystery is other places in the Bible indicate it’s not all done. Then Paul, looking earnestly at the council, said, “Men and brethren, I’ve lived in all good conscience before God until this day.” (Act23:1) I have hope in God, which they themselves also accept, that there’ll be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and the unjust. This being so, I myself always strive to have a conscience without offense toward God and men. (Act24:15,16) This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare, having faith and a good conscience, which some having rejected, concerning the faith have suffered shipwreck. (1Tim1:18-19) Some have suffered shipwreck even though Christ has perfected forever those being sanctified. Paul also says he must maintain a good conscience by striving to keep himself without offense, even though Christ has perfected forever (the conscience of) those being sanctified. To understand what Paul’s saying, we must recognize that when you were a sinner, your conscience was evil and it condemned you, so it wasn’t easy for God to correct you because if someone pointed out your sin you’d say, “you’re judging me,” and you’d resist or turn away from the correction. But by His mighty power God is able to capture us and get us to listen to Him until we can receive that work of Christ which has perfected forever (the conscience of) those who are being sanctified. “Being sanctified,” means our sanctification is still going on as in the renewing of your mind. I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. (Rom12:1,2) But perfected forever means the conscience itself has been cleansed. Past sins are forgiven and forgotten forever! If your conscience wasn’t cleansed then you couldn’t receive the additional work of being sanctified in your body and soul etc. Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. (1Th5:23) Until your conscience is cleansed and set free from guilt you fear God’s exposing your sin to punish you instead of to help and perfect you. Sanctification is God perfecting you. It begins with the cleansing of your conscience but continues until you’re completely sanctified in body, soul, and spirit. (1Th5:23) The first work of the conscience being cleansed is past sins are forgiven forever and you’re set free from guilt. Jesus through His “one offering” has done what the law couldn’t do, because under the Old Covenant the blood of goats and bulls couldn’t cleanse away guilt. (Heb10:4) So the law didn’t make the conscience perfect. (v1) The law was actually a reminder of sin not a cleansing forever (v3) because when you “see” the law, you become aware you’ve broken it. But Jesus went to the cross for us, and when we accept His sacrifice by faith His blood does cleanse our consciences. Being freed from guilt we can now receive God’s correction because we know He’s not mad at us. Because we know He’s completely forgiven us, He can do the work of cleansing and sanctifying our mind and the things pertaining to our understanding and behavior. Though Paul knows God’s forgiven his past sins, he still says, “I strive to have a conscience that’s clean towards God and man” (Act24:16) and “some having rejected a good conscience concerning the faith, have suffered shipwreck.” (1Tim1:19) How is it that Paul must still strive to have a good conscience, when His conscience has been cleansed? And how can a good conscience be rejected? The answer is, once Jesus has cleansed your conscience, shouldn’t you try to keep it clean? Don’t you know that even though Jesus has cleansed your conscience of past sin, new sin will still defile it? So having been forgiven of past sins, if you want to maintain a good relationship with God, don’t sin anymore. Stop sinning! Your sins are forgiven so your relationship with God can be restored. The person who rejects a good conscience may have accepted forgiveness of past sins, but because he continues to sin and doesn’t keep himself clean, he never enters into a real communion with God. By continuing in sin he gets dirty again and again, and God can’t have fellowship with him. If he doesn’t think keeping a clean conscience is important, he doesn’t think having fellowship with God is important. How important is keeping your conscience clean? It’s so important Jesus died so you could have a clean conscience and return to God. Who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness--by whose stripes you were healed. For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls. (1Pt2:24,25) Why would you want to undo what Jesus has done by continuing to sin? For if, after they’ve escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they’re again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them. But it’s happened to them according to the true proverb: “A dog returns to his own vomit, and, a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire.” (2Pt2:20-22) Jesus has made provision that if we stumble but repent, His blood will cleanse us and restore our relationship with God. (1Jn1:9;2:1) But if you’re continually repenting and repenting for the same sins, then your “repentance” isn’t real! Now I rejoice not that you were made sorry, but that your sorrow led to repentance. For you were made sorry in a godly manner that you might suffer loss from us in nothing. For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, not to be repented of; but the sorrow of the world produces death. (2Cor7:9,10) Real repentance must bring forth fruits worthy of repentance. Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, and don’t say to yourselves, “We have Abraham as our father.” For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones. And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which doesn’t bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. (Lk3:8,9) Godly sorrow produces a repentance never to be repeated. Repentance implies you’re sorry you sinned. Since you’re sorry if given the chance you’d undo your sin and not do it again. Thus godly sorrow produces a repentance not to be repented of. (2Cor7:9-11) It causes you to behave in such ways as show you hate your past sins and won’t repeat them. Also your present behavior has fruits worthy of repentance; good works that show you no longer follow selfishness and sin but are now walking in love. So you not only get out, but stay out of sin with a proper repentance. But when your repentance must be repeated it means you weren’t really sorry for your sin in the first place. A repentance that’s repented of says you still like your sin and wish you hadn’t turned away from it. Like I quit smoking but I miss it, so I’m sorry I quit and I’m going back to smoking. In such a case your original repentance was false. The Baptists, Catholics and many other “churches” today have done what Paul describes: they’ve rejected a good conscience and suffered shipwreck. Instead of teaching people to maintain communion with God by keeping a good conscience, they say, “Jesus paid the price for our sins so we don’t have to worry about sin. Just confess your sins and you’ll be forgiven.” But the bible says we can’t sin willfully and be forgiven. For if we sin willfully after we’ve received the knowledge of the Truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins. (Heb10:26) Even the sacrifices of the Old Covenant, which are a picture of the New, aren’t for willful sin, but for unintentional. If a person sins unintentionally, when he sees he’s sinned he must bring a sacrifice to be forgiven. But if the person is presumptuous and sins on purpose there’s no sacrifice for him. And if a person sins unintentionally, then he’ll bring a female goat in its first year as a sin offering. But the person who does anything presumptuously, whether he’s native-born or a stranger, that one brings reproach on the LORD, and he’ll be cut off from among his people. (Num15:27,30) Cut off means killed! Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, on whom the ends of the ages have come. (1Cor10:11) Since Jesus has paid such a high price to cleanse and perfect my conscience, then I should consider My perfected conscience to be a very precious gift that must be protected. My perfected conscience opens to me the door of fellowship with God, so He can help me attain to immortality! I need God’s grace to progress in sanctification and become irreproachable and blameless that I may enter into the resurrection of life. So keeping a clean conscience is a very important part of Christianity. Paul strives to keep his conscience clean. Hymenaus and Alexander don’t. (1Tim1:20) By not thinking there’s a problem with having a dirty conscience, they’ve fallen from grace, suffered shipwreck and ruined their own salvation. But where are you concerning the conscience? Are you striving to keep a clean conscience? For if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things. (1Jn3:20) If your heart condemns you, your conscience isn’t clean, and if you’re conscience isn’t clean, you’re still a sinner in rebellion towards God. In a spiritual sense you’re a criminal, and you’re not fit to come before God until you’re cleansed. Cleansing comes through Christ’s blood and a true repentance, which means you must put away your sin and not go back to it. (See our previous Glory of His Grace publication “Cleansed”) Repentance isn’t just “confessing” or asking forgiveness for everyday sins. If you’re confessing the same sins over and over you’ve never really repented. It’s actually a mocking of God to do that. To truly confess you must agree with God that what you’ve done isn’t right! By “confessing,” you’re showing God you see what you’ve done is wrong and shouldn’t be done. If you “admit” you’re sinning but don’t care to stop – that’s flaunting your sin not confessing it! If you come to God asking Him to forgive you when you’ve no intention of stopping your sin, then you’re mocking God. There’s no forgiveness in that case! Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, (Lk3:8) is what forgiveness is about. You come to God with the sincere intention, “God forgive me and I won’t do it anymore.” But if you come knowing you’ll do it again, there’s no reason to even ask for forgiveness. That’s wicked! This is what the Baptists, Catholics and most of the contemporary churches have come to. They think Jesus died so we can continue to sin, again and again. Because Ephraim has made many altars for sin, they’ve become for him altars for sinning. (Hos8:11) Come to Bethel and transgress, at Gilgal multiply transgression; bring your sacrifices every morning, your tithes every three days. (Am4:4) These people have turned their altars of repentance into a license to sin. They think because they can sacrifice and be forgiven they can multiply their sins without fear of punishment if they just keep increasing their sacrificing (or confessing). But God will punish them for this. For thus says the Lord GOD: “The city that goes out by a thousand shall have a hundred left, and that which goes out by a hundred shall have ten left to the house of Israel.” For thus says the LORD to the house of Israel: “Seek Me and live; but don’t seek Bethel, nor enter Gilgal, nor pass over to Beersheba; for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to nothing. Seek the LORD and live, lest He break out like fire in the house of Joseph and devour it, with no one to quench it in Bethel. You who turn justice to wormwood, and lay righteousness to rest in the earth!” (Am5:3-7) Jude warns us, “I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints. For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into (a license to sin) licentiousness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Jude3b,4) The false churches today think the blood of Jesus means they can continue to sin and confess with impunity. Such “christianity” is foolishness! Jesus died to cleanse our consciences so we can stop sinning and serve God. And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin. Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him. (1Jn3:5,6) He purges our conscience so we can come to God as friends instead of rebellious criminals, so we can hear God and do what He asks of us. (Gal 3:2) So we can obey and serve Him and actually be fruitful. I don’t pray for these alone, but also for those who’ll believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. And the glory which You gave Me I’ve given them, that they may be one just as We are one, I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know You’ve sent Me, and have loved them as You’ve loved Me. (Jn17:20-23) How could Jesus be one with the Father unless He was without sin? Whoever abides in Him doesn’t sin. Whoever sins has neither seen nor known Him. (1Jn3:6) “Sin” is a disagreement with God; it’s the opposite of unity. To be perfectly one with God, Jesus had to be without sin and to fulfill Christ’s prayer for us to be one with Christ and the Father we must also be without sin. This exposes the foolishness of most contemporary “christianity.” The “we’re just sinners saved by grace, but still sinners” doctrine totally rejects Jesus’ prayers and purposes for God’s people. True believers have stopped sinning. We know that whoever’s born of God doesn’t sin; but he who’s been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one doesn’t touch him. (1Jn5:18) Because we’ve stopped sinning we can be one with God. (Jn17:20-23) The purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith. Having faith and a good conscience, which some having rejected concerning the faith have suffered shipwreck, (1Tim1:5,19) Likewise deacons must be reverent, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy for money, keeping the mystery of the faith with a pure conscience. (1Tim3:8,9) I thank God whom I serve with a pure conscience as my forefathers did, as without ceasing I remember you in my prayers night and day. (2Tim1:3) Pray for us; for we’re confident that we have a good conscience, in all things desiring to live honorably. (Heb13:18) But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that’s in you, with meekness and fear; having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. (1Pt3:15,16) There’s also an antitype which now saves us--baptism (not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. (v21) We’re often attacked by wicked false believers who accuse us by saying such things as “Do you think you’re perfect?” Our defense is to have a good conscience For I know nothing against myself. (1Cor4:4a) We also must put on the armor of God. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with Truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness. (Eph6:13,14) Righteousness means sinlessness! The conscience is foundational to conviction. When they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said, “He who’s without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first.” And again He stooped down and wrote on the ground. Then those who heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last. (Jn8:7-9) They couldn’t have been convicted unless they “knew something against themselves”– their conscience bearing witness of their sins. Still they weren’t convicted until Jesus spoke. The conscience often remains silent until someone says something it can bear witness to. Who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them. I tell the truth in Christ, I’m not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit (Rom2:15;9:1) The function of the conscience is to protect you from false accusations as well as convict you of true ones. Concerning the woman caught in adultery, her accusers were powerfully convicted because Jesus knew they were sinners and their consciences strongly agreed. This confirms how the Old Covenant religion of the Jews didn’t cleanse their consciences, but actually reminds them they’re sinners. But in those sacrifices there’s a reminder of sins every year. (Heb10:3) As opposed to a “perfected forever” conscience in which past sins are forgiven and forever done away with. (Heb10:14) The Old Covenant is law and the law shows men they’re sinners. But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors. (Jms2:9) Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified, for by the law is the knowledge of sin. (Rom3:20) The conscience works with the law to convict of sin by showing the sinner he’s transgressed the law. Thus although the conscience is the fundamental and necessary agent in conviction, it doesn’t work alone. For someone to be convicted a law has to be broken. Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. (1Jn3:4) Then the transgression must be recognized, as for example, when a witness points out the sin. But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an uninformed person comes in, he’s convinced by all, he is convicted by all. And thus the secrets of his heart are revealed; and so, falling down on his face, he’ll worship God and report that God is truly among you. (1Cor14:24,25) God often uses men to rebuke or even speak prophecies so the sinner’s conscience can awaken and bear witness to his guilt. And since the conscience works together with the law and witnesses, the incorrigibly wicked who don’t want to repent, will hate and may even try to destroy the godly witnesses who are awakening their consciences. The world can’t hate you, but it hates Me because I testify of it that its works are evil. (Jn7:7) When He’s (the Helper’s) come, He’ll convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment. However, when He, the Spirit of Truth, has come, He’ll guide you into all Truth; for He’ll not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He’ll speak; and He’ll tell you things to come. (Jn16:8,13) The Holy Spirit is God come to convict men of sin. He’s the Spirit of Truth. If you’ve sinned He’ll expose your sin. Therefore don’t fear them. For there’s nothing covered that won’t be revealed, and hidden that won’t be known. (Mt10:26) When God exposes your sin you’ll be convicted for your conscience will bear witness to the Truth the Holy Spirit reveals. The Holy Spirit often works with Godly men to do that. A bishop must Hold fast the faithful Word as he’s been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and convict those who contradict. (Tit1:9) Men of God must know God’s Word (law) so they can be fellow workers with the Spirit to convict and awaken the consciences of sinners. Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men also, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints, to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they’ve committed in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.” (Jude14,15) But the righteous are to have a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. (1Pt3:16) There’s therefore now no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. (Rom8:1) No matter how much someone tries to convince you you’re sinning, if you’re not, your conscience won’t convict you. If your conscience knows when you’re sinning as it must to convict you of sin, then it also must know when you’re not sinning – and in such a case it won’t condemn you. The righteous know they’re doing right because their consciences bear them witness. To be led by the Spirit is to be led by God who can only do right – so the Spirit-led saint can’t be condemned or convicted. Those who try to condemn the just are actually misjudging and sinning. When they misjudge that way they judge themselves. Therefore you’re inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. And do you think this, O man, you who judge those practicing such things and doing the same, that you’ll escape the judgment of God? (Rom2:1,3) You condemn yourself when you do the same things for which you condemn others. How many people accuse others of being selfish when they themselves are selfish; their condemnation is just! How foolish to accuse someone of being inconsiderate when you’re often inconsiderate yourself. And particularly you condemn yourself when you condemn the innocent. But if you’d known what this means, “I desire mercy and not sacrifice,” you wouldn’t have condemned the guiltless. (Mt12:7) “Mercy triumphs over judgment.” (Jms2:13) One who “judges” for the purpose of saving is exercising mercy. The one who judges for the purpose of destroying will be judged and destroyed. For judgment is without mercy to the one who’s shown no mercy. (Jms2:13) I’m often accused of “judging” when I’m rebuking, reproving, and obeying the scriptures in convicting sinners and bringing them to repentance that they may be saved. That kind of “judging” is unto salvation and it’s an exercise of mercy! People who falsely accuse me of “judging” when I’m actually working to save are actually “judging” me. Though they accuse me of not being of God, it’s their “judging” that’s really not of God, and those who do such things won’t escape God’s judgment. What I do is by the Spirit. It’s the calling of a true preacher to convict sinners including sinning “believers” so they can repent. But those who accuse me when God’s telling me to convict will be punished by God according to the same punishment they wished for me. Therefore you’re inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. (Rom2:1) Judge not that you be not judged. For with what judgment you judge, you’ll be judged; and with the measure you use it will be measured back to you. (Mt7:1,2) The wicked accuse others while they’re doing the very things they accuse others of. Thus they condemn themselves in the very act of condemning others. They accuse others of being selfish or inconsiderate when they themselves are often selfish and inconsiderate. They accuse others of being ignorant and unfair when they often act ignorantly and unfair themselves. They accuse others of acting ungodly while they themselves demonstrate they don’t know God or do right before Him. The wicked don’t know how to be merciful and they don’t understand righteous judgment. Don’t judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment. (Jn7:24) The conscience is a witness that must be involved in conviction, but the catch is for the conscience to bear witness a wrong must have been done in such a way it can be proven. So if there’s to be conviction, something like a trial must go on where evidence is brought forth, as through a preacher or other witness that what’s been done is sin. Only then can the conscience bear witness and conviction come upon the sinner. But if you have a good conscience no accuser can convict you. Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the Kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.” (Rev12:10,11) Those who even try to convict the innocent will be convicted and “cast down” themselves! What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It’s God who justifies. Who is he who condemns? It’s Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who’s even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. (Rom8:31,33,34) As true Christians we may be accused by false judges and even the people who Jesus says will think they’re doing God a service when they kill you. (Jn16:2) But God won’t condemn if your own conscience doesn’t condemn you. Beloved, if our heart doesn’t condemn us, we have confidence toward God. And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight. (1Jn3:21,22) Paul says his goal is to present you holy, blameless and irreproachable in Jesus’ sight. (Col 1:22) That should be the goal of every true minister of Christ! Irreproachable means no-one can convict you; they can’t bring a charge against you that will stick. It’s possible for example, that your conscience is quiet because even though you’ve done something wrong, no evidence has been brought forth to prove what you did was sin yet, so you aren’t convicted. (Rom7:9,7b,c) But in such a case you wouldn’t be irreproachable, because as soon as someone showed you your sin you’d be reproached and your conscience would awaken and convict. Therefore you’re reproachable even though at the moment you aren’t feeling conviction. To be irreproachable, there can’t be anything even dormant in you that could be brought out; your conscience must be truly clean. To make you irreproachable, God must cleanse you until there’s nothing left to bring charges against. Likewise, blameless means you aren’t doing anything in the present you could be blamed for, and anything blameworthy in your past has been repented of and covered by the blood of Christ. If you belong to Jesus your conscience has been cleansed. If you’re truly serving Him, He won’t accept any charge against you when He’s the One who’s cleansed you. (Act10:15) Like every real man of God, I must keep a clean conscience but especially in order that God can use me the way He does in exposing the heretical “churches.” Some of you were present in the service where God had me sharply rebuke the church for not properly worshipping. Mrs. Wolf spent a half an hour after that service trying to convince me I’d sinned and the rebuking had come from my flesh! I calmly listened to her tell me everything she thought was wrong with me, but I was in perfect peace because God had spoken to me throughout that experience. I’d even questioned Him about how hard He was telling me to rebuke the church, but He instructed me to strike even harder. It may have appeared to the false “christians” I was sinning, but I knew what I was doing had nothing to do with my personal feelings or flesh; it was God who was commanding me to rebuke so strongly! This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith. (Tit1:13) The Wolves in “My Father’s House” met the real Jesus that night, but He was very different from their false concepts of Him and since they couldn’t “believe” it was Him they left the church. Because of that I know for certain they “believe in” a false Christ, and they don’t “know” the real One! Their religion was always legal, full of self-righteous rules and their own ideas. People like Mrs. Wolf aren’t led by the Spirit! Won’t they be surprised in the day when they meet the real Christ and discover He’s the very One they were so sure He wasn’t? (2Cor5:11) Concerning that service I was led by the Spirit, so I was uncondemned. (Rom8:1) No-one could convince me I wasn’t doing God’s will because God Himself was telling me to do what I did. You can’t cause somebody to be convicted whose conscience doesn’t convict him. To be convicted, their own conscience, not yours, has to condemn them. “Conscience,” I say, “not your own, but that of the other. For why is my liberty judged by another man’s conscience?” (1Cor10:29) Some people are so wicked they’ve seared their conscience. There’s no way you can save them. Since they can’t be convicted, they can’t repent unto salvation! But it’s easy for the righteous to know they don’t have a seared conscience. For example, God deals with me on so many things where my conscience responds. A “seared” conscience couldn’t do that! Often God touches me in my home during my prayer times, and other times in the church services. But because He breaks me so often, He keeps my conscience soft. So when I’m not convicted, I know it’s because I’m not doing wrong. Because I have a “healthy” conscience, if I’m doing wrong my conscience will immediately convict. But I can’t be convicted when I know I’m not doing wrong. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves. (Rom14:22b) He who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And by this we know He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He’s given us. (1Jn3:24) How can you know you have the Spirit? This verse proves having the Spirit is perceptible to a real Christian. To know we abide in Christ we must know we have the Spirit! If you know what you’re doing is in the Spirit, then you know there’s no sin in it. For there’s no condemnation to him who’s in Christ Jesus, who walks not after the flesh but after the Spirit. (Rom8:1) One who’s in the Spirit knows he’s where he is because the Spirit led him there, not because he followed some selfish lust. The Spiritual man knows he’s doing what the Spirit wants and it’s not some carnal desire motivating him. One who’s in the Spirit can’t be convicted because the Spirit is God, and God can’t be convicted, so when you walk in the Spirit you’re blameless. How difficult then is it for a believer to attain to blamelessness? It’s as difficult or as easy as it is to walk in the Spirit. How difficult is it for us to become irreproachable? It is as difficult as it is for us to walk in the Spirit continually. If I’m in the Spirit now but two hours ago I wasn’t, then you might bring a reproach against me, because I must have done something reproachable two hours ago if I wasn’t in the Spirit! But if I’m in the Spirit all the time then I’m irreproachable. You can know you’re in the Spirit. To be “saved,” you must abide in Christ. Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch can’t bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. I’m the vine, you’re the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. If anyone doesn’t abide in Me, he’s cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they’re burned. (Jn15:4-6) To know you abide in Christ you must know you’re in the Spirit (1Jn3:24) and you must continually abide in Him to remain fruitful and irreproachable. Also if you’re in the Spirit, the fruit of the Spirit will manifest in you. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there’s no law. (Gal 5:22,23) When the fruit of the Spirit is yours, you’re in the Spirit and therefore abiding in Christ. Now he who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And by this we know He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He’s given us. (1Jn3:24) It’s common however for false “christians” and carnal “believers” to fabricate “fruits of the Spirit.” They try to drum up a feeling of human love for example and tell themselves it’s Christ. Often they’ll exaggerate some kindness they’ve done and try to attribute the deed to their being Spiritual – claiming it’s a proof of their salvation. In actuality however, the fruit of the Spirit isn’t your love, or your kindness. It’s the love the Spirit shares with you by imparting His love to your consciousness. The Spiritual Man is aware the love, joy or peace he’s experiencing doesn’t originate in him, but is being given to him as a gift from the abiding Christ! So when I receive the wisdom that comes from God – I know that in myself I’m not this wise. This isn’t my wisdom, it’s God’s. Likewise, I know I can’t love this way on my own! This love is better than mine – it’s coming from God! So it is with all the fruit of the Spirit. The Spiritual fruits aren’t “of me” they’re better than me and make me better than I am. They make me like Christ so I know they’re from God and not who I am, but who Christ is in me! When I have the fruits that make me better than I am, I know I’m in Christ, the better man; the perfect man. Likewise, when you manifest the works of the flesh, it proves you aren’t in the Spirit. Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, those who practice such things won’t inherit the Kingdom of God. (Gal 5:19-21) When these sinful passions manifest in someone, he’s fallen from grace. If you can point out a “work of flesh” in someone with a healthy conscience, that one will be convicted, as opposed to Having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. (1Pt3:16) If you can be convicted, you’re not walking in the Spirit and you’re not in faith. And if someone does something that causes you to “get out of the Spirit,” that means you’re not “established” in Christ. Whatever they’ve done to cause you to stumble isn’t just their sin, but it’s exposed a sin in you. If you’re really established in Christ, blameless and irreproachable, you must be able to stay in the Spirit no matter what happens or what anyone does to you. As you’ve therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you’ve been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving. (Col 2:6,7) To be perfect in Christ (Col 1:28) you must be like Him and nothing could get Him out of the Spirit; beating Him, ripping His beard out, cursing Him, lying to Him, bearing false witness against Him; nothing could get Him out of the Spirit! So what must God do in us to establish us in Christ? (Rom1:11;2Cor1:21) He must bring us to where nothing gets us out of the Spirit and we’re consciously in Him at all times. But the Lord is faithful, who’ll establish you and guard you from the evil one. (2Th3:3) The law can convict you if you’re doing something selfish. It can’t convict if what you do is done in love and for the purpose of serving the Lord. So the person who’s following the Spirit (which means walking in love – Eph5:2) isn’t under law and you can’t convict him by the law. (Rom6:14) Of course if you can be convicted that shows you’re not perfected. (Col 1:28) And what’s making you imperfect is selfishness; some place, some how, in some way, selfishness is still operating in you. When you can see you’re in selfishness, then you need to repent. Christ isn’t in you. He’s not selfish! The opposite of selfishness is LOVE! When you know you’re operating in that godly love that’s bigger than your human love, then NOBODY can convict you. Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law. (Rom13:10) There are often subtleties involved in this. For example: recently we rebuked Pam because she brought a testimony that was useless and poorly presented. She was insulted because we didn’t appreciate her effort to “share” when she was intending to do good! The point is, if she really intended to do good, she wouldn’t have been offended by our correction. Of course she’d be disappointed but not offended! If she were in love when we pointed out her error, she’d want to learn how to do right, because true love wants to really help in a way that’s worthwhile; not just doing “token” good but real useful good. You can see Cain’s failure in Pam. Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat. And the LORD respected Abel and his offering, but He didn’t respect Cain and his offering. And Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell. So the LORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you don’t do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.” (Gen4:4-7) Her “offering” wasn’t acceptable, but if she truly wanted to do good she’d have learned from her mistake and gone on to do better. But since she was offended when she was corrected, she must have had a selfish motive in what she was doing. Love wasn’t really her purpose. You can always see through the lie in such people. What does the Word say about love? Love isn’t proud, it doesn’t get offended. (1Cor13:4) So love isn’t what was operating in Pam, but flesh in disguise. If Christ dwells in your heart through faith, you’ll be filled with what? Love! Love that passes understanding; the love of God that fills you with all the fullness of God! (Eph3:17-19) When you know love is the reason for what you’re doing, you can’t be convicted. Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the Day of Judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. There’s no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. He who fears hasn’t been made perfect in love. (1Jn4:17,18) Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law. (Rom13:10) To be convicted you must be shown to have transgressed the law. But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors. (Jms2:9) Love fulfills the law, (Rom13:10) and there’s no conviction in fulfilling the law, only in transgressing it. So a sure way to know you’re in the Spirit is to know you’re in Christ’s love. If you keep My commandments, you’ll abide in My love, just as I’ve kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love. (Jn15:10) If I’m in the flesh, I’ll have selfish motivations, not love! I know what my motives are; you can’t know my conscience as I do. For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? (1Cor2:11a) How can you tell me what my conscience is saying, it’s my conscience not yours. For why is my liberty judged by another man’s conscience? (1Cor10:29b) My conscience keeps track of what’s going on in me, and my conscience knows whether or not I’m doing something in selfishness. My conscience knows the motives for what I do and if my motives are right with God, nobody, not you, not even the whole world can make my conscience bear witness against me. Concerning wicked people, their conscience is as an enemy; but to the righteous, my conscience is my friend, and protects me from false accusations. If you have an evil conscience then your conscience testifies against you. If you have a good conscience then your conscience testifies for you. Since having a good conscience protects me from false accusations, I strive to keep a good conscience. What are the things that defile your conscience? Any disobedience to God! I was bought with a price and I’m not my own, (1Cor6:19,20) and for me to live is Christ. (Phil 1:21) So the whole purpose of my life is to serve the Lord. (Rom12:1) Now, I have a good conscience about that and I know it’s true that I do serve the Lord with all my heart! If that’s what I’m doing then who can convince me I’m not? My conscience knows better than anyone what I’m doing; the motives and the sincerity of my heart! My conscience bears me witness in the Holy Spirit! (Rom9:1) The problem we have with many so-called “believers” is they’re trying to steal from God, trying to keep something they owe Him for themselves. For example, time that should have been spent in prayer or devotions is wasted on entertainments like TV. Every time you do that, you offend your conscience, because your conscience knows what you’ve done. And an offended conscience will cause you to lose your joy and your fellowship with God. You must realize to indulge in sin the price is much too high. It isn’t worth giving in to the flesh when it causes me to lose the blessings I receive from God’s presence. When your conscience is defiled, you’re cut off from everything good and godly. You have to repent or you can’t get back to God. Then why should I ever allow my conscience to be defiled? It’s so important to keep a good conscience that Paul says without it, you’ve suffered shipwreck. (1Tim1:19) One great purpose of Christianity is to help you keep your conscience clean before God and to establish you so perfectly in Christ that the God of peace Himself may sanctify you completely; and your whole spirit, soul, and body may be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord. (1Th5:23) And because you keep yourself abiding in Christ, the evil one can’t touch you. (1Jn5:18) Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! (Jn1:47) Guile is duplicity. The root of duplicity is “double” as in “double-mindedness.” A duplicitous person may appear to be serving the Lord, but he’s also serving himself, so selfishness is polluting all he does. A double-minded man gets nothing from God. (Jms1:7,8) One of the works God does in perfecting us is to remove anything that’s duplicitous. Whatever isn’t a pure service to God must be repented of, because there’s corruption in it if you’re trying to serve self and God at the same time. You shall not let your livestock breed with another kind. You shall not sow your field with mixed seed. Nor shall a garment of mixed linen and wool come upon you. (Lev19:19) You shall not sow your vineyard with different kinds of seed, lest the yield of the seed which you’ve sown and the fruit of your vineyard be defiled. (Dt22:9) Mixtures are defiling. Evil company corrupts good manners! (1Cor15:33) The selfishness has to die; it has to be crucified if you’re to be like Christ. Jesus is never duplicitous. Suppose I had an uncrucified desire for deep-sea fishing. Then I receive an invitation from two different churches on the same weekend to preach, and one is in Key Largo, and the other Nebraska. A duplicitous person may think “I can get some fishing in while I’m in the Keys so that’s where I’ll go,” instead of “Lord, where do you want me?” What good are you to God if you’re duplicitous? You’ll end up going where God doesn’t need you instead of where He does. Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I tell the truth, why don’t you believe Me? (Jn8:46) How could anybody convict Jesus of sin? It’s not possible to convict Him of sin when He knows He’s in the Spirit because the Spirit can’t sin. So how can anyone convict you of sin when you know you’re in the Spirit? And we can know we’re in the Spirit. John says, “By this we know we abide in Him, and He in us, because He’s given us of His Spirit.” (1Jn4:13) When I’m in the Spirit, I’m not sinning. So the Spirit-led man is irreproachable and blameless. To be a true believer every area where there’s any selfishness, must be exposed and repented of. We’re not fit for God’s Kingdom until we’re established in Christ and abiding in Him at all times. Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know Him. Beloved, now we are children of God; and it hasn’t yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He’s revealed, we’ll be like Him, for we’ll see Him as He is. And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure. (1Jn3:1-3) This being so, I myself always strive to have a conscience without offense toward God and men. (Act24:16) (To be continued in Book II) Prophecy: I’ve paid an awesome price to perfect your conscience, so I can sanctify you and make you blameless and irreproachable in the day of My appearing, so you can be fit to enter the first resurrection and everlasting life in My Kingdom. All these things depend upon your having a clean conscience. What happens when you go back to a defiled conscience? You’ll lose everything, because I can’t sanctify you, I can’t perfect you or cause you to be irreproachable and blameless unless you maintain that perfect conscience that I first bought for you by My blood. Now, how important is it to hold onto faith and a good conscience? It’s as important as your salvation, as your attaining to the resurrection and eternal life, saith the Lord. Prophecy: I’ve said the Pharisees make long prayers then devour widows’ houses. Their prayers are a façade and it’s common in false religion to put on the façade of making prayers for things that are “out there” then sinning right in your own home. My people don’t make long prayers, put on a façade and then sin in the midst of their brethren. My people crucify their flesh with its passions and desires. That’s the beginning of being worthy to be of My people. When you put to death the deeds of the body by the Spirit, that’s what makes you Mine. After you’ve put to death the deeds of the body, after you’ve crucified the flesh then you can become the sons of God because only then can you walk in My Spirit. Then you’ll pray the prayers I put upon your heart to pray and you’ll pray from and through the Spirit because you’re a people who have Christ in you, a people who walk in love, a people who make peace in your own home. And you’ll stop playing games and pretending you’re religious because of what you do somewhere else. You’re not a Christian somewhere else unless you’re a Christian in your own home, saith the Lord. (Prophecies delivered at “My Father’s House”) Letters to “My Father’s House” Dear Pastor Bill, I was raised in a Baptist church but I found out from your Glory of His Grace book I was taught a lie. When I read “Once saved, always saved” I was shocked because I was taught that once I accepted Jesus Christ I was saved forever, I didn’t think I’d have to do anything else. I believed I was saved no matter what, and I’m so thankful that Brother F. was talking to me and the Word of God came up and he introduced me to some of your Glory of His Grace material. I read it and the Holy Ghost moved on me where I understood everything you said. I read the scriptures also and the Spirit of God led me into truth and I just want to thank you very much for publishing the truth because there are many antichrist teachers out there. That’s why we Christians are being defeated everyday in our lives because we haven’t been taught the truth. I’ve a calling from God to preach and I want to preach the true gospel because we’re supposed to be doing just as Jesus did when He was on earth, but we don’t have the power Jesus had because we’ve been taught lies and it’s sad. My father’s a deacon in a Baptist church and they don’t tell the people the truth. I thank God I know so now I can share with the people, so they can work at their salvation; especially my loved ones. May God continue to bless your ministry to get the truth out. Love always, your brother in Christ A.W. Pastor Bill, Greetings in the name of Christ. I’m so grateful and thankful for the work God is doing in and through you. The Glory of His Grace has tremendously blessed me and has been a tool of the Holy Spirit to shine light in the midst of darkness. My eyes have truly been opened to the deception in this age; in the churches and in the lives of many professing believers. For two months since I was moved to this camp from the main unit, it’s been a struggle for me to fellowship with the “believers.” The Grace of God has been sufficient in supplying me with the wisdom to reign in life through Jesus Christ, and to attack and expose the heresy in the camp. It’s been a challenge of being accepted by man and denying God, or standing for the truth and being persecuted for righteousness. The inmates have fellowship on Fridays through Sundays in the yard during Rec. time. While at the main unit I met a couple of believers who were interested in the Glory of His Grace, one was already receiving them. We fellowshipped daily, every chance we could get. Then I get over here and I began to see the true essence of the work and ministry of the Glory of His Grace. It’s set up where whoever the overseer chooses to preach on certain days will do so. After about a week of fellowship I was able to discern from the things said that they were compromising – carnal (worldly) and hypocritical in many ways. The doctrine wasn’t sound – not according to godliness but according to diabolos. I spoke with one of the guys on the topic of salvation. It was clear from what he said he was Baptist raised. We had a few scripture battles and I shunned him from that day forth. Later he was sent to confinement for saying something inappropriate to a female officer. He was supposed to be a leader – preaching the Word of God in the church the inmates set up. Later one of the Baptist services was centered on assurance in salvation. There were several men preaching “Once saved, always saved.” After service I stepped up to one minister and said, “For 2 years I’ve had a problem with Once saved, always saved, because it teaches lasciviousness.” He said he’d watch what he says from now on. I thought you need to find out the truth before you preach anything. Last week while I was reading 1st John, the Holy Spirit opened up the 5:13 verse the Baptists love to use to support their Eternal Security heresy. This light I shared with another who proved to be a goat because the sheep hear the Shepherd. I shared that John was writing the believers to give them experimental assurance but not assurance without the evidence of the things he was speaking of. Near the end of 1st John at 5:13 he states “these things I’ve written to you, etc…” I asked him what things? Then I explained all the things he’d been teaching from the first chapter up to this point. And if you’ve believed properly according to God’s Word on the name of the Son of God, these things – the love for God and His Word and for the fellow believers, will be evident in your life. Your obedience in all things will be visible, but if you believe without any of these things in your life, then your believing is in vain. He refused this light, but God is using the Glory of His Grace to open the eyes of God’s true sheep. A man in my dorm has been a believer for 2 years now but all he’s been studying is Baptist material. He recently crossed my path and I shared some Glory of His Grace books with him. He said he knew something was missing concerning his salvation. Recently he came to see the gifts of the Spirit were for today, so he’s been open to the truth. I gave him two Glory of His Grace books and he was so excited about what he was learning, he came back for more. He shared some questions and I told him the truth is exposing the FALSE DOCTRINE of the Baptists. I was able to help him through prayer and the Word to come to the knowledge of the truth. Pray for your children in this prison. Thank you in Christ , W.B.
Dear Pastor Taylor, I’ve been a “believer” since Oct 2002. I’d like to say I’ve been saved that long but it’s not true. My life has been one disaster after another but I’m so glad there’s an answer. Over a year ago I met Bro-C. This man truly loves the Lord and he’s led by example. His testimony touched me but it wasn’t so much the words as it was the change I witnessed with my own eyes. “We’ll be known by our fruit” and this man is surely walking with God. Pastor I’m very joyful that I know our Lord Jesus but it was only as of late, that I’ve come to see the real Jesus. For 2 years I’ve been following the Baptist belief and up until recently I was constantly wondering why I wasn’t real. Coming to jail I was at the end of my rope. I’d gone as far as to put two .357 rounds in a pistol one night, spin the chamber and took my chances. That click was the loudest, sobering sound I’d ever heard. My point is I threw myself into God as from the Baptist point of view and honestly nothing changed. Bro-C was growing and I wasn’t. Secretly I didn’t like the guy. Something kept telling me he was right but I did what I do best and ran. I’ve personally witnessed this man go from the bottom of the hill to standing on its top shouting. You can see God in his life and this made me dislike him even more. I even told him so! This is where your ministry came into my life. Bro-C walked up to me, rebuked me, and then gave me a Glory of His Grace book. I promised I’d read it and after doing so, found I fed on it. Every word pointed out my sin and showed me I wasn’t saved. Two years were shot because I was wrong. I know at this point “once saved, always saved” isn’t true. I no longer had my free pass to sin. The same night I read this I’d prayed for God’s forgiveness and guidance, and found the answer about 2 AM when I was awakened from sleep deathly sick. I rushed to the bathroom and there I heard a voice as clear as day saying that I was being purged and it was time to walk the walk and leave off the lip service. This sir has brought joy and sadness because my grandfather was a Baptist preacher for 60 years and is dead now, and my mother is so set in her belief. Thank you Pastor Taylor for following God’s Word and for sending help to men like me. I’m not a very book wise man, but I’m glad God chose me to be the one He sent Bro-C to with your message. Please send me all the Glory of His Grace books you have, and allow me to study what God has shown you. It would be wonderful if there’s a fellow brother who wouldn’t mind corresponding God’s Word with me. (A brother was provided for him) I surely don’t have many friends and feel sure I’ll soon have less, because so many people reject the truth. I used to be one of them. Thank you. Love in Christ – Bro K.B. Prophecy: My church, I’m doing a marvelous thing. Through the works I’ve done in you, I’m destroying the enemy from the inside. As the people take hold of My truth, they’re asking questions the false and blind preachers can’t answer. And the integrity they’ve thought they had has been shown to be a shamble; falsehoods, lies, darkness, and utter deceits. You don’t see yet all the glory I’m bringing forth from you. For as you see My truths and you put them into print and they go forth, My Word is causing the people to say things that confound the false “christians.” But the true believers will come looking for the answers. That’s why I’ve built up “My Father’s House.” This is a place where My light can shine forth so others may come into My light and hear My voice for themselves. But many won’t know they can hear My voice until there’s a people who hear Me and show others it’s possible to hear and be led by Me! And that’s the glorious thing I’m doing here, making you that people, saith the Lord. (Prophecy delivered at “My Father’s House”)
