TIGER WOODS AND JESUS CHRIST – WHAT DO THEY HAVE IN COMMON ?

cac1988 — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 18:49:35 +0000

WHAT DOES TIGER WOODS AND JESUS CHRIST HAVE IN COMMON?

The answer is simply this: People either love them or they hate them. You either accept them or you reject them! Tiger Woods made a horrible mistake,sins of the flesh,and he is paying for it dearly! I don’t care who you are,rich or poor,God judges everything,(good or bad) you can’t hide from God. There is no such thing as a secret from God. If you spend time in the bible, “THE WORD OF GOD”,it reveals to you the truth about sin,and the truth about life – JESUS CHRIST. God resists the proud and gives grace (mercy) to the humble. Now that Tiger Woods has been humbled,maybe he will turn to God and accept Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior. And all you people who are judging Mr. Woods and are happy about his failure;you better take a look in the mirror and make sure you know Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior !!!

This is the reason for the season- JESUS CHRIST (CHRISTMAS) ! LET US LEARN TO FORGIVE AND FORGET BECAUSE JESUS CHRIST DIED FOR THE SINS OF THE ENTIRE HUMAN RACE,AND ROSE FROM THE DEAD, THAT WE MIGHT HAVE LIFE ABUNDANTLY NOW AND FOREVER WITH GOD.

So instead of judging,and rejoicing in Tiger Woods utter disgrace;pray for him,pray for your family,pray for your friends,pray for this country,pray for the world,and lastly pray for yourself ! That we all will be found blameless in spirit,soul,and body;when Jesus Christ returns !

Just like Jesus Christ died,and was buried,and rose from the dead – so shall Tiger Woods.

VICTORY STARTS IN THE MIND

cac1988 — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 02:29:39 +0000

THE SECRET TO OVERCOMING SIN IN YOUR LIFE STARTS WITH KNOWING THAT SIN IS A THOUGHT THAT IS INVISIBLE;AND IF YOU CHOOSE TO ACT ON THIS SINFUL-THOUGHT IT MANIFESTS ITSELF IN THE VISIBLE REALM AS AN ACTION SUCH AS MURDER,FORNICATION,ADULTERY,ETC.

SO TO OVERCOME YOU MUST REPLACE THE SINFUL-THOUGHT WITH A RIGHTEOUS-THOUGHT! THIS IS AN EVERYDAY BATTLE THAT EVERYONE HAS TO DEAL WITH! BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS WE CAN CALL ON THE NAME OF JESUS WHEN THESE SINFUL THOUGHTS COME, TO STOP THEM IN THERE TRACKS BEFORE THEY MANIFEST THEMSELVES INTO SINFUL ACTIONS !! SO THE MAGICAL WORDS ARE “HELP ME JESUS !!!”

FOR IT IS WRITTEN IN HEBREWS 4:14-16 “SEEING THEN THAT WE HAVE A GREAT HIGH PRIEST,THAT IS PASSED INTO THE HEAVENS,JESUS THE SON OF GOD,LET US HOLD FAST OUR PROFESSION. FOR WE HAVE NOT AN HIGH PRIEST WHICH CANNOT BE TOUCHED WITH THE FEELING OF OUR INFIRMITIES;BUT WAS IN ALL POINTS TEMPTED LIKE AS WE ARE,YET WITHOUT SIN. LET US THEREFORE COME BOLDLY UNTO THE THRONE OF GRACE,THAT WE MAY OBTAIN MERCY,AND GRACE TO HELP IN TIME OF NEED.”

GOD’S KEY TO EVERLASTING,COMPLETE SUCCESS!

cac1988 — Sun, 25 Jan 2009 17:12:23 +0000

Do you have ears to really hear the truth? Do you have eyes to see the truth? Do you have a heart that is open to the truth? Do you incline your mind to seek after the truth? Well if your answer is yes to these four questions,then you are on your way to understanding God’s key to everlasting,complete success in every area of your life!

THE START:

FIRST CALL ON THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN SAVE YOU,CONFESS YOUR SINS TO HIM,AND ACCEPT HIM NOW AS YOUR PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOR. THE “HIM” IS THE ONE AND ONLY JESUS CHRIST.

ONCE YOU HAVE DONE THIS,THEN SIMPLY “FEAR GOD AND KEEP HIS COMMANDS.” RUN AWAY FROM ALL SIN,IN THOUGHT,WORD,OR DEEDS. BUT ESPECIALLY THE SINS OF UNFORGIVENESS AND ALL SEXUAL SIN(FORNICATION,ADULTERY,MASTURBATION,ORAL SEX,WATCHING PORN,ETC.) IF YOU ARE ENGAGING IN THESE SEXUAL SINS YOU WILL PROVOKE THE WRATH OF GOD IN YOUR LIFE! SO STOP DOING THEM!!!!!

ASK GOD TO TAKE AWAY THAT DESIRE IN YOUR HEART TO COMMIT SIN AND HE WILL DO IT. THEN “FEAR GOD AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS” TO LOVE GOD,YOUR NEIGHBOR ,AS YOURSELF IS KEEPING ALL THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD!

NOW THE KEY:

THE KEY IS SIMPLY “FEAR GOD.” AND IF YOU FEAR HIM YOU WILL DO THE THINGS OR HAVE ALREADY DONE THE THINGS MENTIONED ABOVE IN “THE START” SECTION. TO FEAR GOD MEANS TO HAVE THE UTMOST RESPECT FOR HIM AND HIS WILL, WHICH IS CLEARLY REVEAL TO ALL IN HIS WORD-THE BIBLE! I FEAR GOD, AND HE HAS FREELY GIVEN ME DIVINE HEALTH,DIVINE PROSPERITY,AND DIVINE PROTECTION. HE WILL DO THE SAME FOR YOU IF ONLY YOU CHOOSE TO FEAR HIM!

SO YOU COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND BECAUSE I HAVE CHOSEN TO FEAR GOD,GOD HAS MADE IT SO I CAN’T GET SICK,SO I WILL LIVE A LONG TIME ON THIS EARTH,I HAVE AN OVERFLOW-SURPLUS OF MONEY IN MY LIFE,AND NOTHING OR NOBODY CAN HURT ME BECAUSE I HAVE ANGELS PROTECTING ME 24-7!

SO THE KEY TO EVERLASTING,COMPLETE SUCCESS IN EVERY AREA OF YOUR LIFE IS TO FEAR GOD.

UNDERSTANDING HOW FAITH REALLY WORKS-JESUS THE CHRIST!

cac1988 — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 04:46:34 +0000

God has given me insight into how faith really works! If you are a true born-again Christian-meaning you have a serious relationship with God thru Jesus Christ. Which also means that you have turned away from sin,that you have no desire to commit sin;(lie,steal,fornicate,etc.) But you also have enough sense to run to God if you do commit sin and ask Him to forgive you via Jesus Christ,and to take away the desire to commit this sin or any other sin that is ruining your opportunity to be blessed by God – in every area of your life! GOD IS HOLY, AND HE WILL NOT BLESS SIN. If you want God to bless you in every area of your life then you must accept His son,Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior. Call out to Jesus,acknowledge the fact that you are a sinner that needs to be saved,and ask Jesus to come into your heart,to give you reconciliation with God. And Jesus will give you a new,holy,spirit;and He will also give you THE HOLY SPIRIT,to dwell inside your body,to teach,to instruct,to lead you on the path of righteousness.But the key is with this new born-again spirit,that is now right with God;you still have to deal with your flesh that is still sinful and wants to live contrary to the will of God. So in order to deal with this battle you must read the Word of God-“the bible” everyday of your life,you must renew your mind with the words of God,and do,act,believe the Word. But you have a God given free will to do as you choose!!! And God will not violate your will,He want’s everybody to choose life,which means choosing Jesus. Now to understand how faith really works: The bottom line is faith comes by hearing,and hearing by the Word of God-“the bible” FAITH IS A LIFE STYLE,NOT A FAD! THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH,AND NOT BY FEAR. FAITH AND FEAR CANNOT CO-EXIST. EITHER YOU ARE LIVING YOUR LIFE BY FAITH,OR YOU ARE LIVING YOUR LIFE BY FEAR. YOU MUST ALSO WALK IN LOVE IN ORDER FOR YOUR FAITH TO HAVE REAL POWER. YOU KNOW,LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF,FORGIVENESS TOWARDS PEOPLE,THE SAME WAY GOD FORGAVE YOU THRU JESUS,WHEN YOU MESSED UP! JESUS EXPLAINED IN DETAIL HOW YOUR WORDS ARE SEED AND HOW THE WORD OF GOD IS A SEED. READ MARK CHAPTER FOUR AND MARK CHAPTER ELEVEN,VERSES 20-26. WHEN YOU GET THE KNOWLEDGE THAT PERSECUTION OR TRIALS COME AUTOMATICALLY WHEN YOU RECEIVE,HEAR,AND BELEIVE THE WORD OF GOD,THEN YOU WON’T GET MAD OR OFFENDED. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS REST IN JESUS,STAY FOCUS ON THE WORD,WHICH IS JESUS,BE CONTENT IN WHATEVER SITUATION YOU ARE IN,TRUST GOD,AND YOU WILL SEE AND HAVE VICTORY OVER THE TRAIL OR PERSECUTION THAT COMES BECAUSE OF THE WORD,EVERY SINGLE TIME !!! IF THE TRIAL OR PERSECUTION IS OVERWHEMING YOU CAN PRAY IN THE SPIRIT VIA THE HOLY SPIRIT,AND ALSO CONDUCT SPIRITUAL WARFARE AGAINST the devil and his evils spirits. ASK THE HOLY SPIRIT FOR INSIGHT INTO THESE THINGS I JUST MENTION AND HE WILL DO IT FOR YOU. REMEMBER,GET IN THE WORD OF GOD EVERYDAY,AND BE BOLD ENOUGH TO SPEAK HIS WORD,AND BELIEVE HIS WORD. BELIEF IS SIMPLY “HAVING THE UTMOST CONFIDENCE IN GOD-THAT HE CAN DO IT! STUDY HIS WORD AND FIND OUT FOR YOURSELF THE MANY BLESSINGS YOU HAVE BECAUSE YOU HAVE ACCEPTED JESUS AS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOR! I HAVE DIVINE HEALTH,DIVINE PROTECTION,AND DIVINE WEALTH, BECAUSE BY THE GRACE OF GOD I’M DOING HIS WORD,HIS WILL IN MY LIFE EVERYDAY. IN CLOSING REMEMBER THESE WORDS: “BY HUMILITY AND FEAR OF THE LORD ARE RICHES,AND HONOR,AND LIFE.” PROVERS 22:4 THE FEAR OF THE LORD IS THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM:AND THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY IS UNDERSTANDING.” PROVERBS 9:10

THE TRUTH:FORNICATION,ADULTERY,ALL SEXUAL SIN,IS DEADLY!

cac1988 — Sat, 06 Sep 2008 16:23:06 +0000

This doesn’t sound cool at all,but the truth is any sexual activity outside of marriage is wrong and destructive to you spiritually,mentally,and even physically! Making a life style of engaging in fornication,adultery,masturbation,porn,and all types of sexual sin will place a curse over your life! All sin is sin,but sexual sins really provoke the wrath of God in your life! So my message to anybody who has the ears to hear,the eyes to see,and the mind to really understand where I’m coming from is to stop with the sexual sin today! I was guilty of these sexual sins – fornication,adultery,watching porn,and my favorite masturbation. I ask God to forgive of all these sins and I gave up committing fornication and adultery. But for many years I was still guilty of committing the sin of watching porn and masturbating. I tried to reason in my mind that these sins were really not as bad as fornicating and adultery. I would always ask God to forgive me via Jesus Christ and stop doing these sins for awhile;then eventually start the cycle all over again! Things should have be going well for me, but the last few years of my life have been filled with all kind of problems,failures,and disappointments! So once you really get tired of having a messed up life you get real with God and seek some answers! So I boldly ask God why am I having so much failure and financial hardship in my life,I’m a born-again Christian,I read the bible,I pay my tithes,so what’s the deal? And God boldly revealed to me,place in my mind and heart that “I must get rid of all the sexually sin in my life today if I want to be blessed financially and have success in every area of my life.” It’s just that simply,if you want to be blessed by God you must get rid of the sexually sin especially;but getting rid of any sin in your life is a definite step in the right direction. But how do you stop doing something that feels so good and that you have been doing for years? You have to make a decision and have the discipline to think thoughts that are not sexual. Stop watching porn. Exercise,dance,swim,ride a bike,etc. do something to take your mind off committing sexually sin – when the thought comes to you and it will ! Abstain if you can,but if you can’t,and most people can’t,then ask God to bless you with a partner (NO HOMOSEXUAL STUFF-GOD IS HOLY) so you can enjoy sex with your wife or husband. Be real with God,He’s knows everything anyway! (ASK GOD TO TURN OFF YOUR SEX DRIVE UNTIL HE GIVES YOU A SPOUSE,AND IF YOU ASK IN FAITH HE WILL DO IT,BECAUSE HE DID IT FOR ME !)

I hope that my bold revelation will help someone else to really become free and enjoy life to the fullest. .

WE NEED MORE POSITIVE ENERGY ON THIS PLANET!

cac1988 — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 16:20:15 +0000

Unfortunately,we live on a planet where most of the people are negative thinking people! If you look at any news program on television,95% of the telecast is about “bad news”. Who got shot,who got robbed,who did the police chase today,who got hurt today from around the world! When you are surrounded or saturated with bad news or negative “thinking-talking” people,this negative energy can get into your mind and ruin your life! It’s very important to surround yourself around wise,”positive thinking-talking” people. The people who enjoy talking about how bad things are in their life all the time,never stop to see the good in anything,or never say “Thank you God for another day of life”- you could do without them!!! The people who enjoy talking about other people,”she’s fat,he’s ugly,they are stupid, etc. ,never have anything good to say about anyone,just always cutting down people because they are really insecure about themselves- you could do without them!!! The people who enjoy doing or have a life style of doing everything that God does not endorse,you know stealing,murder,lying,adultery,premarital sex,and even homosexual activities-you could do without them. You can love the person,but if the activities they are doing are wrong you must be truthful to them and yourself! When I say,” you could do without them ” I mean you must shield yourself from the negative energy they are surrounded with,keep a safe distant from them “mentally”. You still can be and should be nice,friendly,and cordial to everybody;hopefully your positive energy will rub off on them!!! But it doesn’t happen over night,its totally a mental thing! If I offended anyone with this post I’m sorry that you are one of those people – “negative energy” ! Come over to the positive side and make this planet a great place to live !!!!!

PLEASE ACCEPT JESUS BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE!

cac1988 — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 16:37:36 +0000

It really doesn’t matter if you believe in God or not. You have a free will to choose not to believe in God because He created us that way. To freely make up your own mind to acknowledge God,to serve God,to worship God or not to acknowledge God,not to serve God,not to worship God! Yes every man,woman,and child was created by God,but not every man,woman,and child is a “CHILD OF GOD” The only way you get the status of “CHILD OF GOD” is by accepting His son Jesus Christ,as your personal Lord and Savior. Because of the free will of Adam and Eve to choose to disobey God in the Garden of Eden,God had to fix their mistake.

JESUS CHRIST WAS AND IS THE FIX FOR THE MISTAKE OF ADAM AND EVE!!

If you haven’t already pick up a bible before and read from the beginning to the end I strongly encourage you to do so and understand why we were created and what is our responsibility now! If you come to God with an open and sincere heart He will come to you in return. If you confess your sins and acknowledge that the only way you can have right standing with Him is by accepting His son,Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior,God will forgive you and grant you the status of “CHILD OF GOD”. And don’t get confused with the issue of sin. Once you are “Saved”,”BORN AGAIN”,or whatever you want to call it ,you will sin again. Whether it’s willful or unwillful,you will sin again it thought,word,or deed. We were created as spirit,soul-mind,and body. Once you get saved,your spirit (the real you) is renewed and free from sin,but your mind and body are not free from sin-must be constantly trained to do right! So if you sin,just be real with God and tell Him that you messed up again and ask for forgiveness via Jesus and God will forgive you every time as long as you are sincere about trying to stop committing that sin or sins again! The key is to always be “REAL” with God because He knows what you are thinking anyway. So if you are mad at God let Him know,and ask for understanding-wisdom. SO PLEASE, IF YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY,CHOOSE TODAY TO ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOR! I promise you it’s the best and most important decision you can make. You will really start to enjoy living,with the understanding that some hardships may come your way,but even in these hardships GOD-JESUS-HOLYSPIRIT are right there with you,so consequently you will always win-become a better person because of the hardship. Don’t be sentence to eternal hell with the devil,but be sentence with eternal togetherness with God.

WOMEN PLEASE BE WISE ABOUT LUST VS LOVE!

cac1988 — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 03:15:19 +0000

Ladies I’m writing this special letter to you. Whether you are sixteen or fifty-six years old,ladies please understand that most guys who say they love you are really saying I lust you!!! If you are a very attractive woman with a great body,most guys are just plotting on how they can get in your pants! Ladies don’t be deceived by charm and flattery. Ladies please don’t get caught up on how great the guy looks or how much money he spends on you. The bottom line is does the man show you respect in all his actions and words towards you! Does he care about your feelings! If he is a real man he will wait as long as it takes before he makes any sexual advances. If he is a real man he will tell you the truth and no lies !!! If he is a real man he will try to get to know you spiritually and mentally. If he is a real man he would die for you if that was the only option he had;now that’s deep!. ONLY A MAN WHO KNOWS THE ONLY WAY TO GOD IS BY JESUS CHRIST ;AND HAS ACCEPTED JESUS CHRIST AS HIS PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOR . If you encounter this type of man,and he declares he loves you,then give him the benefit of the doubt because he more than likely does. I am such a man.

THE MESSAGE ALSO APPLIES TO A MAN SEEKING A WOMAN- ” MEN PLEASE BE WISE ABOUT LUST VS LOVE ! ” YES SHE IS BEAUTIFUL,SEXY,ETC. BUT DOES SHE KNOW JESUS CHRIST AS HER PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOR ? WHAT A CONCEPT A BEAUTIFUL – GOD FEARING WOMAN !

Think positive,say positive,do positive,live positive!!!”
