WHAT IS IT TO BE LOST?
Being Lost
is so important, let you and all that may read this be sincere before God and
one another.
Matthew 10;28 is where Jesus said to fear Him who is able
to destroy both body and Soul in Hell. If
anything is destroyed, it is destroyed, not live on. If anyone
in Hell or the Lake of Fire suffers Eternally,
then he has eternal Life, only suffering in that Life. People
have been lied to so much, some don't really
know what to believe, so believe the Scriptures, and don't let
anyone add to or take away from them.
Rev.20;14--And death and Hell were cast into the Lake of
Fire. This is the second death. Look at the
next verse in 15---And whosoever was not found written in the
Book of Life was cast into the Lake of Fire.
Matthew 7;13--Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is
the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be
which go in thereat:
14---Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way,
which leadeth unto Life, and few there be that find it.
Now destruction means just what it says, not live on and
on suffering in Hell.
Matthew 15;12--Then came His disciples, and said unto
Him, Knowest Thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this
saying?
13---But He answered and said, Every Plant, which My
Heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
14--Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind And
if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
Now to ROOT up a plant, it will die, and cannot ever live
again.
Matthew 13;36---Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and
went into the house: and His disciples came unto Him, saying, Declare unto us
the parable of the Tares of the field.
37---He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the
Good Seed is the Son of Man; The Field is the world; the Good Seed are the
children of the Kingdom; but the Tares are the children of the wicked one; The
enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the
Reapers are the Angels. As therefore the Tares are gathered and burned in the
fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. The Son of man shall send forth
His Angels, and they shall gather out of His Kingdom all things that offend, and
THEM which do Iniquity; and shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall
be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Now how can a weed live on when it is cast into a furnace
of Fire? it is destroyed forever, and Jesus was
speaking of people, not natural weeds...Verse 36 to 42.
Malachi 4;1---For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn
as an oven; and all the Proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be as stubble:
and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of Hosts, that it
shall leave them neither Root nor Branch.
If a plant has no root, nor branch, but burned up in a fire,
it will never live again. See that? So a person that is lost, is destroyed ETERNALLY.
He or she goes out of existence, like they never was. It is because the sinner
does not fear God..Some think if they go to church, read their Bible, which
is fine, but does not get born again, and filled with the Life of Jesus Christ,
as He destroys the Sin-nature the sinner is born with, and set free where He
can worship God is Spirit and in the Truth. He is a new Creation. People need
to know this.
It takes the Spirit of God to move on a sinful heart, and
no clay-power can work that Miracle. Unless the Holy Ghost draws a person, they
can't come to God, so if you have a desire to repent, be baptised, and be filled
with the Holy Ghost, you should be the happiest person on the earth.
Fear God, and pray to Him that you want that sin-nature
destroyed so you can be a slave to Jesus Christ, instead a slave to sin.
Jesus wants to live with people who Love His Word while in this life,
as He does not want to live with anyone who despises His Word, and will believe
anything any person says, preacher or whatever, and will not check that out
with the Scriptures to see if that certain thing is true. Respect God more
than anyone, or anything.
In Romans 6, the Bible says ye that are dead to sin, how can you live any
longer therein? Then on down there is the statement of not yeilding your members
to sin, as who you yield to is your master.
In Romans 8;10 we read this, And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because
of sin; but the Spirit is LIFE because of Righteousness.But if the Spirit
of Him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, He that raised up
Christ from the dead shall also quicken (Bring to Life) your mortal bodies
by His Spirit that DWELLETH in you. Therefore, brethern, we are debtors, not
to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh, ye
shall die: but if ye THROUGH THE SPIRIT DO MORTIFY (Put to death) the deeds
of the body, ye shall live.
Before the world ever was, God in His Great Mind, planned His Family, and
wrote all their names in His Family Album, the Lamb's Book of Life. Then when
He placed Adam and Eve on earth, to start His Family, Sin came before any
children were born. Therefore that made all God's Children come as sinners,
so Christ came seeking all that had their Names on His Family Album. All that
He passed by, were NOT Lost, as to be lost, you had to have it at one time.
You see God had them in His Family Album, and Christ came to pay their way,
so He could redeem them to Himself without spot, blemish or any such thing
that can be named. You see NON Seed cannot be Germinated, as there is nothing
there to Germinate.
In Gal. 4;6, we read this statement--And because ye are Sons, God hath sent
forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father...By this
you can understand that the Holy Ghost does not make you a Son or Daughter
of God, but because ye are Sons and Daughters of God already, is the only
reason why you could be reborn. Take a piece of ground, and plough it all
up, and when the rain falls on it, all kinds of plants come up. The RAIN did
NOT change any Seed, but gave Life to what SEED was already there. I was never
a Goat, but always a Sheep, but a Lost Sheep, but because I was His Sheep,
I had a Shepherd to feed me, and keep the wolves away, and lead me by the
still waters, and clear, not muddy, and I shall not want, but live with Him
forever throughout the ages to come.
You see before the world ever was, God put My name on His Book, the Lamb's
Book of Life, and that was what made me His Sheep, and for that reason only,
when the Truth was waved over me, there was a conception, and I was re-born.
Romans teaches that God is the Potter, and all humanity is clay, and He
chose whether to make a Vessel unto Honor, or one into dishonor. Even before
Esau or Jacob were born, He hated Esau and Loved Jacob that His Election would
stand. There you have Salvation in a nutshell.
Satan has to use preachers and the bible to deceive with,
as it has always been that way.
This world is dying, and soon the union of churches, the
world counsel of churches will come into power, and that will be the Mark of the
Beast, so let us all be up and be about the Business of our Heavenly
Father.
Love the Truth, stick to the Truth, And it will keep
you.
I can't tell it all, but I hope these few broken words
will help some soul get desperate with God about their soul.
In His Service, Nathan Miller.
