[size=+1]I just wanted to talk a little bit. We need the Bible when seeking The Real Truth. We should talk to God, and get the truth right from God Himself; and ask Him for it :Call out .

It's written how fragile truth can be ( Mark 4 ). And it doesn't help that Satan & his own seducing spirits, are confusing people.

Don't settle for anything less but God's Word; as He present it.
Stay away from traditions, and vain blabbing of men. Stay away from crumbs .

We get the real truth the real fruit from the True vine , or bread that is going to sustain your soul :right from God's Word.

Think about sitting by a river on a clear warm day, looking into clear water, you can see pebbles at the bottom, you know their colors, you can see how smooth they are, you can even make out the tiny sands.

When there is a disturbance in the water, the mud is kicked up, its no longer clear. You cant see anymore.

Its the same with a bad spirit, but fruit, man's traditions, their ideas: when they come along, they muddy the truth, to where genuine people who other wise could have founds God , can't. Because see to the bottom of the matter.
And those who are told everything is going to be okay, lose their life, because what they're fed was bad fruit .


They will build a wall for you saying : live here your safe behind these walls. Its a strong wall, it's peace behind this.

The Truth is, the walls they want you to buy as protection, actually has big cracks in it. Cracks that reveal the Truth of the matter: that there is No safety there . Not hope, and no comfort.

Before you were able to see that, they frivolously smeared over the cracks with their slime, and whitewashed the whole wall with it. They covered over top the cracks .

But if were only getting false promises, filled with cracks, in time when the winds blow, the walls going down. And your going to have no protection, just left naked and ashamed.


Think of it this way, there was a marriage arranged for a Bridegroom and his bride to be married.

The groom sent His bride a letter telling all about Himself. Even detailing their plans for the wedding, the most care was given to make sure she would be informed about every aspect of the wedding. He told her the time, the place, and all the major players, and even what she should wear.

When the message arrived to her, she asked her helpers who the bride employed, to adorn the letter in fancy coverings, roses, and the like. And to read it to her.

The helpers informed her the time was near for the wedding, her help adorned for her husband, they offered her a special veil. As she readied herself for the wedding ; placing veil over head. She asked for the letter form her husband.

But she was unable to easily open it in a rush ; she unravel the fancy coverings placed over its edges. She finally opened it, but in frustration unable to read; because of the veil she wore.

The planers of the wedding told her there's time no longer, her bridegroom had arrived on a white horse. With veil over head, unable to see, shes lead by the hand, into the main event.

In view of his bride , the happy groom lifts the veil and views his bride to be. They lock eyes & agree , they will be husband and wife.

Later she wondered what was in the letter , she did not have time to read it all. He told her, its nothing really: only to love me and no other. They consummate their marriage, so their fate is, pronounced. In joy, she says : I sit a queen, and am no widow .


Five months later,a man enters the city on a white horse. He is throwing a wedding, and he's looking for His bride to be . On His might white horse races through the city in search of His bride. He finds her in a clearing, with groom and child.

He asked her : did you receive the letter I sent ? I am your husband to be . She said, I could not open the letter, because the helpers placed fancy coverings over its edges, and it was not easy to open. They placed a veil over my eyes, so It was blurred, and I could not see what it said.

The True bridegroom then held a great wedding feast , and those who did read His letter, virgins with oil in lamp, were invited in to the marriage of the True bridegroom .

The bride in tears ask to enter, but, the doors were shut. She did not regard His letter; so she would wait for the True bridegroom . She did not read of the stranger looking to steal His bride ;who's child she nurses .

If we are not careful, this can be the fate of a lot of Christians in the very near future. And once you've allowed those commencements placed over your heads, and coverings over God's out reaching hands of correction and Truth , you won't be able to tell what is a lie, or recognize the Truth. Though its right there in front of you.



We as Christians know, there is a wedding coming. And we need that oil to guide the way there.[/size]

Thought I push this up one more time with a verse.

Amos 8:11-12

King James Version (KJV)

11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord:

12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it.

It's not found with traditions of mans sayings. Its found in the Bible with understanding.
