<h1 style="text-align: center;">BIBLICAL MINDSET</h1>
<p style="text-align: left;">WE AS BELIEVERS MUST HAVE A <span style="color: #333333;"><a style="color: #333333;" href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2+Corinthians+4%3A3-5&amp;version=KJV" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BIBLICAL MINDSET</a>,</span> INSTEAD OF A RELIGIOUS MINDSET.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">IT IS TIME FOR US TO CHANGE OUR THINKING AND SEEK YE FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD, AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, INSTEAD OF FOLLOWING THE DOCTRINE AND TRADITIONS OF MEN, AND THERE SELF-MADE RELIGIONS.</p>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="text-align: left;">
<p>THE BIBLE IS VERY CLEAR ON THE CONCEPT OF A BIBLICAL MINDSET. READ <a class="bibleref" href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=MARK%207:1-19&amp;version=KJV&amp;src=tools" target="_BLANK" rel="noopener noreferrer">MARK 7:1-19</a>.</p>
<p>ONCE YOU CHANGE TO A BIBLICAL  MINDSET, YOUR WORSHIP WILL BE PURE, YOUR PRAYERS WILL BE MORE POWERFUL, YOU WILL HAVE THE FREEDOM THAT YAHSHUA DIED FOR TO GIVE US.</p>
<p>YOU DON’T BELONG TO A CHURCH, (BUILD) OR A DENOMINATION, OR RELIGION, WHICH ARE MAN-MADE INSTITUTIONS, AND ORGANIZATION.</p>
<p>YOU BELONG TO “THE CHURCH THAT IS NOT BUILT BY HANDS” THE BODY OF YAHSHUA, YOU ARE HIS BRIDE, AND HE IS THE BRIDEGROOM. THE TRUE HEAD OF YOUR LIFE, AND THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE.</p>
<p>SOMETHING TO REMEMBER.</p>
<p>YAHSHUA SAITH UNTO HIM, I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE: NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER, BUT BY ME.</p>
<p>YAHSHUA ALSO SAID “AND I SAY ALSO UNTO THEE, THAT THOU ART PETER, AND UPON THIS ROCK I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH, AND THE GATES OF HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST IT”</p>
<p>AND WHAT IS THE ROCK? THE WORD OF YHWY, MADE INTO LIVING FLESH AND BLOOD. AND PETER BORE WITNESS TO THE ESTABLISHING OF YAHSHUA’S CHURCH, FROM THE MESIAH’S MOUTH.</p>
<p>iN THE BOOK OF REVELATION 2; 4-5 WE FIND THESE WORDS…</p>
<p>4 NEVERTHELESS I HAVE SOMEWHAT AGAINST THEE, BECAUSE THOU HAST LEFT THY FIRST LOVE.</p>
<p>5 REMEMBER, THEREFORE FROM WHENCE THOU ART FALLEN, AND REPENT, AND DO THE FIRST WORKS; OR ELSE I WILL COME UNTO THEE QUICKLY, AND WILL REMOVE THY CANDLESTICK OUT OF HIS PLACE, EXCEPT THOU REPENT…</p>
<p>MANS DOCTRINE, RELIGIONS, OR TRADITIONS WILL NOT SAVE YOU, WILL NOT GIVE YOU SALVATION, ABSOLUTION, OR REPENTANCE. THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY, AND THAT IS THROUGH YAHSHUA.</p>
<p>WE MUST GET BACK TO OUR FIRST LOVE IN ORDER TO DO OUR FIRST WORK, AND RETURN THE HEAD BACK TO YAHSHUA.</p>
<p>TO YAHWEH OUR ELOHIM, BE ALL THE GLORY, THROUGH YAHSHUA HAMASHIACH (THE MESSIAH) NOW AND FOREVERMORE…</p>

<h1 style="text-align: center;">Biblical Guidelines For A Pandemic</h1>
<h4>Biblical Guidelines For A <span style="color: #000000;"><a style="color: #000000;" href="https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-updates/summary.html#:~:text=A%20pandemic%20is%20a%20global,pandemic%20by%20the%20WHO." target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pandemic</a></span>, found in the book of Isaiah Chapter 26 Verse 20-21 (KJV) and it reads;</h4>
<p>20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.</p>
<p>21 For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.</p>
<p>But your Pastors aren&#8217;t giving you this word!</p>
<p>Ya&#8217;ll crying for the Church to be open, so you can go back to your social clubs, clicks, fellowships, etc. But for the first time in my life time and most of yours, the Church building is shut up! and ya&#8217;ll are lost.</p>
<p>But I submit to you today, that YHWH is warning you about your &#8220;Church building&#8221;, your Apostle, Prophet, Bishop, Evangelist, Pastor and Ministers, your religions, traditions and doctrines of man, your loyalty to these man/woman who lord over you, demand a portion of your wealth even in the worse time in modern history so they can live while you struggle.</p>
<p>Even now they shame you into giving,(Will a Man Rob God?) they tell you that God demands the tithe and the offering to keep the work of the ministry going&#8230;</p>
<p>Let me tell you something. The work will continue with or without them. Allow me to lay this on you!</p>
<p>Oh I hear a WORD coming today!</p>
<p>In Jeremiah the 23rd Chapter verse 1-4 (KJV)</p>
<p>1 Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the Lord.</p>
<p>2 Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the Lord.</p>
<p>3 And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all countries whither I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase.</p>
<p>4 And I will set up shepherds over them which shall feed them: and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, saith the Lord</p>
<p>Did you read that? YHWH is getting rid of the CHEAP Preachers, that have LIED and misled you all these years. trying to made you feel all warm and fuzzy. But meanwhile YHWH has been setting up the REMNANT! Read it again. one more time..</p>
<p>He is setting up a REMNANT to watch over His flock, you shall be fruitful and increase, not deceived by false doctrine and mans traditions, or bring worldly things that YHWY hates into your heart and presence.</p>
<p>It time for the people of YHWH to WAKE UP! You&#8217;ve been Had, and You&#8217;ve been Hoodwinked for 400 years. Have you ever saw a passage of Scripture in the Bible that said YHWH or God is the God of the Christians in the Old or New Testament?</p>
<p>Ask your Christian Apostle, Prophet, Bishop, Evangelist, Pastor or minister to explain that! &#8220;&#8221;Hint&#8221; look at the second verse of the scripture posted above in the 23rd Chapter of Jeremiah.</p>
<p>Now is the time to learn how to Worship YHWH in SPIRIT and in TRUTH, and Truly be Baptized by the fire of the Holy Spirit. Because you haven&#8217;t even come close yet.</p>
<p>May YHWY bless you and keep you and your family Safe through this Pestilence. And may the Holy Spirit minister to you, with the WORD of TRUTH, so this message will resonate in your Spirit with clarity and understanding.</p>
<p>1 Peter 1:16 says Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.!</p>

<p>What can we learn from the Psalm 119? The Word of YHWY our Elohim (GOD)’is sufficient to make us wise, teaches us righteousness, and equips us for every good work.</p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;"><a style="color: #333333;" href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm+119&amp;version=KJV" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Psalm 119</a></span> in it&#8217;s entirety, is reflection of the Nature of YHWY our Elohim (GOD), and from there we learn that we can trust Him, and love Him as he loves us, even when we are afflicted or persecuted in our darkest hour.</p>
<p>But his delight is in the law of the <span class="small-caps">Lord</span>; and in his law doth he meditate day and night <span style="color: #333333;"><a style="color: #333333;" href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm+1-2&amp;version=KJV" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Psalm 1:2</a></span></p>

THE QUALIFICATIONS FOR THE OFFICE OF A BISHOP &amp; DEACON</h2>
<p>Please read very carefully for IT IS WRITTEN!</p>
<p>1 This is a true saying, if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.</p>
<div class="text_exposed_show">
<p>2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;</p>
<p>3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;</p>
<p>4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;</p>
<p>5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)</p>
<p>6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.</p>
<p>7 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.</p>
<p>8 Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;</p>
<p>9 Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.</p>
<p>10 And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless.</p>
<p>11 Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.</p>
<p>12 Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.</p>
<p>13 For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.</p>
<p>14 These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly:</p>
<p>15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.</p>
<p>16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.<br />
___________________<br />
This is one of the most used scriptures when it comes to the office of the Bishop &amp; Deacon, but only the first 5 verses are started, if that.</p>
<p>Many people are being Consecrated into this Office that DO NOT Qualify. Especially when it comes to the FIRST VERSE!</p>
<p>This should clear up any lies, misconceptions, misinterpretations, and placing those who do not meet the qualifications.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center;">Sabbath Scripture Reading</h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">2 Corinthians 6:10-18</h2>
<p>Ponder On This!</p>
<p>10 As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.</p>
<div class="text_exposed_show">
<p>11 O ye Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged.</p>
<p>12 Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels.</p>
<p>13 Now for a recompence in the same, (I speak as unto my children,) be ye also enlarged.</p>
<p>14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?</p>
<p>15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?</p>
<p>16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.</p>
<p>17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.</p>
<p>18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.<br />
__________</p>
<p>As Sons and Daughter (Not Kings and Queens) we are NOT to be YOKED to UNBELIEVERS, but to SET OURSELVES a part and BE SEPARATE and NOT touch UNCLEAN things so our Elohim can dwell with us,</p>
<p>Everyone will not be welcome into the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those how are considered the TEMPLE of GOD our Elohim.</p>
<p>Let that sink in for those of you who think God loves everybody. (For It Is Written)</p>
<p>Shabbat Shalom<br />

<p>Ponder On This!</p>
<p>3 And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live.</p>
<div class="text_exposed_show">
<p>4 Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.</p>
<p>5 Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the Lord thy God chasteneth thee.</p>
<p>6 Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.</p>
<p>7 For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills;</p>
<p>8 A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and honey;</p>
<p>9 A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any thing in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass.</p>
<p>10 When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the Lord thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.</p>
<p>Our Elohim will supply all our needs, and bless us if we are Humbled, Keep His Commandments and Be Obedient to His Word!</p>
<p>You YHWH be ALL the Glory, now and Forever more.<br />

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Here is a Powerful Message from 1 John 5: 5-10. READ CAREFULLY!</p>
<p>5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?</p>
<p>6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.</p>
<div class="text_exposed_show">
<p>7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.</p>
<p>8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.</p>
<p>9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.</p>
<p>10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.<br />
_________________________</p>
<p>in these passages of Scripture John proclaims this testimony about Yahshua (Jesus) is absolute and validated. showing He is the Overcomer and the Son of YAHWEH (GOD) and the Record in Heaven and the witnesses on earth. &#8216;Water and Blood&#8221; As believers we have evidence of the truth because the Holy Spirit who is the Spirit of truth that lives in each and every believer.</p>
<p>When we have a true relationship with the Yahshua (Jesus), we experience the love of YAHWEH our Elohim, with evidence of our fruits of the Spirit, and the manifestation of Gifts.</p>
<p>On the other hand, those who do not believe in YAHWEH or His Son Yahshua, John says, are rejecting His truth, which is the same as accusing Him of lying. referencing 1 John 1:10, John noted that the person who says he is free from sin makes God a liar, and shows a lack of truth.</p>
<p>In this case, the unbeliever has not accepted the testimony of God, as believers has, and they may see Jesus as a good person, but do not accept Him as God&#8217;s Son or the Savior.</p>
<p>As a result of this, they accuse God of lying, since God called Jesus His Son (And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Matthew 3:17). Likewise, at the point just before Yahshua die, The Scripture stated, &#8220;And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him&#8221; (Luke 9:35)</p>
<p>To YAHWEH our Elohim be All the Glory, now and forevermore.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center;">YOU CLAIM TO KNOW THE MESSIAH,</h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">BUT ARE YOU KEEPING HIS COMMANDMENTS?</h2>
<p>Our Text is found in 1 John 2:1-6</p>
<p>1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:</p>
<div class="text_exposed_show">
<p>2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.</p>
<p>3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.</p>
<p>4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.</p>
<p>5 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.</p>
<p>6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.<br />
__________________<br />
Many Churches and people who claimed to be set, called, chosen, or Highly Anointed, never tell you that in order to lay claim to the Salvation of the Messiah you must &#8220;LOVE HIM, AND FOLLOW HIS COMMANDMENTS&#8221; why? Because even them, themselves don&#8217;t follow them, which means they are Liars, and the TRUTH is not in them.</p>
<p>They want you to believe that you are saved by grace which was a word that the Messiah never used, (Paul said that, not the Messiah) because grace alone will not save you. The Messiah gave explicit instructions throughout the New Testament how to Keep your Salvation, and they are not being taught. Because you think you are under grace.</p>
<p>So John reiterates what the Messiah said again, to remind us. As we look at the scriptures above, let&#8217;s look at this one also, in 1 John 14:15</p>
<p>15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.</p>
<p>Obviously, this is very important for us to receive and understand for our Salvation. How can you love the Messiah, and forsake His Commandments? The answer is plain and simple. You can&#8217;t! and you are lying to yourself and others.</p>
<p>We must READ OUR BIBLES, and stop listening to these Apostles, Bishops, Prophets, and Pastors, trying to make you feel good and tell you that you are under grace. You must know the TRUTH, so you can be set free from their bondage, I give the Messiah your all, and honor the Father who is in the Messiah.</p>
<p>Then and only then will you have true Salvation. To YAHWEH our ELOHIM be ALL the GLORY and HONOR.</p>
<p>Apostle Eric Townsend</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center;">Today&#8217;s Scripture Reading Found In 1 John 5-10</h2>
<p>5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.</p>
<p>6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:</p>
<div class="text_exposed_show">
<p>7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.</p>
<p>8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.</p>
<p>9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.</p>
<p>10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.<br />
