“IF GOD GIVES YOU A FEW MORE YEARS, REMEMBER, IT IS NOT YOURS. YOUR TIME MUST HONOR GOD, YOUR HOME MUST HONOR GOD, YOUR ACTIVITY MUST HONOR GOD, AND EVERYTHING YOU DO MUST HONOR GOD.” – A. W. Tozer
Jesus in Matthew 7:13-21
“Enter in by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter in by it. How narrow is the gate and the way is restricted that leads to life! There are few who find it. …
Every tree that doesn’t grow good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. …
Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.”
IF YOU’RE GOING TO PREACH ABOUT GOD’S LOVE, PREACH ABOUT WHAT GOD HATES.
IF YOU PREACH ABOUT GOD’S MERCY, PREACH ABOUT GOD’S WRATH.
IF YOU MENTION HEAVEN, DON’T FORGET HELL.
PREACH THE WHOLE COUNSEL OF GOD..(ACTS 20:27)
[“I didn’t shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.”]
“A HALF TRUTH, EQUALS A WHOLE LIE.”

PAUL: “CONSIDER therefore the KINDNESS AND SEVERITY of God.”
“So DO NOT BE ARROGANT, but BE AFRAID. For if God did not spare the natural branches, PERHAPS HE WILL NOT SPARE YOU either. CONSIDER therefore the KINDNESS AND SEVERITY of God: to those who have fallen, severity; but to yoʋ, kindness, IF YOU CONTINUE in his kindness; OTHERWISE yoʋ too will be CUT OFF.”
– Romans 11:20-22
Sheltering homeless to cost Anchorage $125/day! Spiritual revival would cost NOTHING — solving this!
Sheltering each homeless person in this hotel will cost Anchorage taxpayers $125/day! Whereas, spiritual revival (Dick Strutz’s dream) would cost nothing — except humbling ourselves, becoming right before God and men, like Paul always made sure he practiced. So his conscience was clear when he saw Jesus face to Face (Acts 24:16), having faith to enter — unlike the majority of born-again Christians (including church leaders) who die these days!

“Better you get ready — on time!”
We need to walk in love, led and enabled by the Holy Spirit, having the fruit of the Spirit to have no condemnation now and when we see Jesus face to Face — resting in Him.
“You may have been born in church, baptized in church, served in church, could have married in church, died in church and still end up in hell, because you were only in the church and not in Christ.
It is necessary to be born again, take up our cross and follow Jesus. Many have religion, but have no relation with the living God!”
I’m still offering $6,000 to anyone who can refute what the Bible actually says:
My comment:
THANKS for sharing this short testimony, Bill! It seems that hardly any born-again Christians are being led by the Holy Spirit these days, including pastors. Almost all seem lust addicted, which is demon driven, so they think they can never be free. Many are clinging to the false doctrines of OSAS (once saved always saved) and “only believe,” because like Martin Luther, they think that’s the only way they’ll go to heaven. In the meantime, America is falling like a rock, since hardly any “Christians” are salt and light.
We need to get real Christianity going before this is all over, Jesus’ prayer in John 17 and the way Christianity should be explained in Ephesians 4:11-16.
“History fails to record a single precedent in which NATIONS SUBJECT TO MORAL DECAY have not passed into political and economic decline. There has been either a SPIRITUAL AWAKENING to overcome the moral lapse, OR a PROGRESSIVE DETERIORATION leading to ultimate national disaster.” – Douglas MacArthur
NOTE: I Posted this in early January (2010) as a theory, simply titled: My Theory On Divorce, which is radically different to what is taught and practiced by many ‘Christians,’ today, but this is something I’ve believed for many years.
Also, I wrote these two articles to clarify further:

1:08:00 “… That simply is not acceptable before God. He is not going to take a bride for Christ that is unfaithful to what Christ has taught.” – David Berkot
A century ago, it was extremely rare for a non-Christian—let alone a Christian—to obtain a divorce. Today, so-called Bible-believing Christians divorce one another just as frequently as does the world. The reason is that the Church has abandoned Christ’s teaching on divorce and remarriage.
In this message, Bercot looks at the New Testament teachings on divorce and explains how those passages were applied by the early Christians.

Jesus: “..LOVE your enemies, BLESS those who curse you, DO GOOD to those who hate you, and PRAY FOR those who spitefully use you and persecute you, THAT YOU MAY BE SONS of your Father in heaven….” – Mt. 5:44-45 NKJV
Manuel Lacunza’s book: “The Coming of Messiah in Glory and Majesty” (1790)
Jesus warned us in Matthew 5 in the strongest language that if we look at a woman to lust for her we’re committing adultery with her in our hearts. So He said we need to do whatever we have to control our eyes and our “right hand” so our whole bodies will not be thrown into hell when we die.
“You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery’ [old covenant].But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell. And if your right hand [masturbation] causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell. (Mt. 5:27-31)

Who-Goes-To-Heaven Scriptures — Narrow is the Way | Who are the Children of God? — “There is therefore now *no condemnation* to those who are IN CHRIST Jesus, who don’t WALK according to the flesh, but ACCORDING TO THE SPIRIT”

In addition to what George says, few seem to understand the DEVIL’S OTHER MAIN DECEPTION with sexually lusting.
Actual DEMONS DRIVE LUST so people think they can’t stop, because the desire to lust is constant as long as the demons are allowed to drive lust. Freedom from these lust demons requires complete rejection of willfully lusting, COLD TURKEY. Then rebuke the lust spirit(s) in Jesus’ name or pray in tongues against them, and we’re FREE!
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” – James 4:7
When we’ve completely repented from lusting, the lust demons then no longer have a right to be in us to drive lust. We’ve closed the sin door that lets them in. But if we knowingly, willfully let ourselves sin again, the demon(s) have the right to reenter to addict us all over again — back into that place where we no longer abide in Christ and again cannot bear fruit. We’ve let ourselves again become prodigal.
Once we’re free from the lust demons, this place of freedom is like daylight compared to darkness — fresh air! We can relax, and are no longer driven.
Though the endorphin hits from lusting are gone too, the pleasures and false joy from sinning.
WITHDRAWALS
For serious lust addicts, it might take a few days after the demon(s) go to be able to completely relax and rest in freedom — until freedom and rest is the norm.
They say lust addictions can even rewire the brain, shrinking parts, like the self-control center. Regular lusting can also cause vitamin/mineral deficiencies. Complete normalcy could take some time.
Then we have to be ever vigilant to not let those demons come back again. We discipline ourselves to look away when we’re tempted to lust, to not open that lust door again, which gives the demon(s) the right to come back into our bodies and drive lust through thoughts and strong feelings they give us.
After having lived totally lust free, we then know what this FREEDOM is like. The difference is COMPLETELY OBVIOUS. If we let the demon(s) back in again, it’s like being in prison all over again — which is probably the normal condition for most people today, including even most pastors, who themselves aren’t free, because they’ve bought into the lies themselves, and teach some of them, like “once saved always saved,” “only believe,” or “it’s hard to lose one’s salvation.”
Many New Testament scriptures teach that if we’re addicted to lust we can’t go to heaven.
Jesus said if we look at a woman to lust after her in our heart we’re committing adultery, and it would be better for us to lose body parts than for our entire bodies to be thrown into hell.
We need to make sure we live in Paul’s “those who belong to Christ” list in Galatians 5, to not be in serious danger.
In John 15 and 17, Jesus tells us He wants HIS JOY to be in us and OUR JOY to be FULL!
Jesus’ prayer in John 17 should be our goal as the body of Christ — that we’d be ‘ONE’ with each other in Christ “that the world will know!” We need to fulfill God’s holiness goal in Ephesians 4:11-16 — which is supposed to be normal Christianity.
We need to have the FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT in our lives instead: love, joy, peace, kindness and self-control — getting our JOY from Christ, not endorphin hits from lusting, disobeying Christ, setting ourselves up for eternal punishment by putting ourselves in the “will not inherit the kingdom” list in Galatians 5.
We can live FREE!!!
Paul clearly lays it out in Galatians: 5:
14 For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, in this: “You shall †*LOVE* YOUR NEIGHBOR *AS YOURSELF*†.” 15 But if you bite and devour one another, be careful that you don’t consume one another. 16 But I say, WALK BY THE SPIRIT, AND YOU WON’T FULFILL THE LUST OF THE FLESH. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one other, that you may not do the things that you desire. 18 But IF YOU ARE LED BY THE SPIRIT, you are not under the law [like Romans 8:4].
[WILL NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM]
19 Now the WORKS OF THE FLESH are obvious, which are: *ADULTERY*, *SEXUAL IMMORALITY*, *UNCLEANNESS*, *LUSTFULNESS*, 20 idolatry, sorcery, *HATRED*, strife, JEALOUSIES, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies, 21 ENVYINGS, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that THOSE WHO PRACTICE SUCH THINGS *WILL NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM* of God.
[THOSE WHO BELONG TO CHRIST]
22 But the FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT is LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and SELF-CONTROL. Against such things there is no law. 24 *THOSE WHO BELONG TO CHRIST* HAVE CRUCIFIED THE FLESH WITH ITS PASSIONS AND LUSTS. 25 If we live by the Spirit, let’s also WALK BY THE SPIRIT. …
6:7 *DON’T BE DECEIVED*. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that will he also reap. 8 For HE WHO SOWS TO HIS OWN FLESH will from the flesh REAP CORRUPTION. But HE WHO *SOWS TO THE SPIRIT* will from the Spirit REAP *ETERNAL LIFE*. 8 Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, *IF we don’t give up*.
EXCELLENT Analysis!!!
Steve Hill was probably the main person responsible for the Brownsville Revival. He had a dream showing 7 great deceptions in the church today. Rejecting hell is #6:
You are looking at a microscopic image of the legs of an insect called a leafhopper. You would expect to find gears in a factory, or somewhere manmade, but in nature where scientists say life just evolved randomly? How did evolution “create” such a clever machine? It didn’t. It took a mind. A thinking living Creator. God!

These insects, which mainly hop around on European climbing ivy, are only a couple of millimeters in length, but with one mighty jump they can spring forward more than a meter at a velocity up to 3.9 meters per second (nearly nine miles per hour). As noted in Popular Mechanics, “In 2 milliseconds it has bulleted skyward, accelerating at nearly 400 g’s—a rate more than 20 times what a human body can withstand.”
Does God Hate Some People? Yes, Check It Out
- Summary: Does God love every person and everything? No! In fact, Scripture reveals a number of things and people that God hates! You may be among those who are surprised to discover from Scripture that God does hate some people.

We MUST live in Paul’s second Galatians-5 list to inherit eternal life in heaven:
19 Now the WORKS OF THE FLESH are obvious, which are: ADULTERY, *SEXUAL IMMORALITY*, UNCLEANNESS, *LUSTFULNESS*, 20 idolatry, sorcery, *HATRED*, STRIFE, jealousies, OUTBURSTS OF ANGER, rivalries, divisions, heresies, 21 ENVYINGS, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that THOSE WHO PRACTICE SUCH THINGS *WILL NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM* of God.
22 But the FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT is *LOVE*, JOY, PEACE, patience, KINDNESS, goodness, faithfulness, 23 GENTLENESS, and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 *THOSE WHO BELONG TO CHRIST* HAVE CRUCIFIED THE FLESH WITH ITS PASSIONS AND LUSTS. 25 If we live by the Spirit, let’s also WALK BY THE SPIRIT. …
If Paul could see the church in America today, then maybe Mary could hear our prayers too — but still could only process one at a time, since she’s not God. She gets MILLIONS every day and hears none!
Pray to Jesus, not Mary, who can’t hear your prayers or intercede for you.

That one time Ron Paul was booed by Republicans for suggesting the U.S. follow the Golden Rule when it comes to foreign policy.
There’s a lot of irony here, as it’s supposedly the party that promotes Christian values, and there aren’t any caveats in Christ’s command.

Anchorage Mayor Dave Bronson defeated RADICAL leftist Forest Dunbar in 2021 by only 1.3%. Bronson was able to ride on his no-lockdown and no-mask-mandate position during Covid. [Afterward, Anchorage Assembly masked citizens again anyway, taking away mayoral powers that RADICAL leftist Mayor Quinn-Davidson had, and also Mayor Berkowitz.]
All of what’s shown below has happened since, which will be weaponized against Dave in ad after ad.
On top of that, the liberal press has continually blamed Dave only for the homeless problem and deaths, and many residents are upset with Dave’s headship of the snow removal street issues.
Nonetheless, Dave is still running, which seems to me will guarantee a leftist winning in 2024. Dave needs to do the right thing, please.
Key articles below tell the Amy/Dave story.
THE MAIN PROBLEM & MAIN SOLUTION
NOTE: both Amy and Dave are openly Baptists. The Apostle Paul says “Christians” are not supposed to sue Christians in secular courts (1 Cor. 6:1-8). The main problem in America is a lack of REAL Christianity. The main solution is REAL Christianity, which can start in Anchorage — Jesus’ prayer fulfilled in John 17 and His clearly stated goal in Ephesians 4:11-16!
Parents teaching their children to be good because Santa knows if they’re good or bad is idolatry, teaching children to be good for Santa instead of God, the Creator of the universe. And Santa is a type of Satan, with his elves (demons). He has God-like characteristics. Lying to children is wrong.
Please don’t tell your children fables. Santa then becomes a type of god to them, whom they hold dearly. And when they finally learn he’s fake….
This is Howard Pittman, a BAPTIST PASTOR whom I often mention when talking about how FEW are GOING TO HEAVEN now. In 1979, he DIED in the ambulance on his way to the hospital. At the gates of heaven, the angels told him he HADN’T MADE JESUS LORD. He had served self, so couldn’t enter, and that only 2.5% were entering heaven then, 44 years ago. Imagine how much lower the percentage is today. THIS IS SERIOUS!
How Many Will Be in Heaven? How Many Find the WAY? Only 1 in 40 — 2.5%!?!!
My 560th post on what really happened on 9/11:
No steel high-rise building has collapsed from fire before or after 9/11, during which our lying government said three “collapsed from fire.”
The official story has no legs, yet many unforgiving evangelicals, especially, still believe lies as justification for our reverse-Christian, post-9/11 wars.
Unforgiveness blinds people, and will keep us from going to heaven too if we don’t repent.
