Thomas Akempis: An Imitation of Christ

From: Thomas Akempis: An Imitation of Christ

"The more recollected a man is, and the more simple of heart he becomes, the easier he understands sublime things, for he receives the light of knowledge from above. The pure, simple, and steadfast spirit is not distracted by many labors, for he does them all for the honor of God. And since he enjoys interior peace he seeks no selfish end in anything. What, indeed, gives more trouble and affliction than uncontrolled desires of the heart?

A good and devout man arranges in his mind the things he has to do, not according to the whims of evil inclination but according to the dictates of right reason. Who is forced to struggle more than he who tries to master himself? This ought to be our purpose, then: to conquer self, to become stronger each day, to advance in virtue."

Cripus Attucks

My Search for Crispus Attucks:

"Crispus Attucks (c. 1723 – March 5, 1770) (pronounced Att-a-cus) was one of five people killed in the Boston Massacre in Boston, Massachusetts. He has been frequently named as the first martyr of the American Revolution and is the only person killed in the Boston Massacre whose name is commonly remembered. Although little is known for certain about Attucks, including his ethnicity, the possibility that he was African American or Native American has elevated him to an important symbolic status in U.S. history." Wikipedia
Years ago I received a prophecy given in the form of a vision and it was confirmed by more then one witness:
The vision was of a black man and a white man’s hand joined in a grasps together, meaning working together for a common call.
I am the White man.
I joined with a black man who first gave that vision and that relationship did not turn out well because he thought of himself as better than me. We eventually shook hands and separated.

I still search for a man to fulfill that vision.
Along the path, I have actually been offered an agreement with a black woman in another region. But that was not the vision.

I must be about, bringing kingdom truth to Marion and this region, and doing it working together with a black man.
This is the specific person I look for according to the vision and the call. A black man, (or Native American) full of power, willing to lay down his life for the Revolution that is presently arising, which is called "The advancement of the true Kingdom of God."

I look for one who is first spiritual. One who loves God. A man of God. I seek one, called to bring change to the church. He must be aware that there is something wrong with the religious system. He must be aware of the needs of his world. One who is politically aware, able to understand the true nature of this present world climate, and the problems of our society.

I look for one who is a prophetic singer or minstrel. One who is comfortable with the gifts of the Spirit. I look for one who can commit long term to a work. I look for one who will give himself for the work. One who will give his life for the call.

Revolution is the word of this hour. It will happen with you or without.

Hebrew Names

The reason we are employing the Hebrew names for God on this blog is that there is a false Jesus being preached by the churches in this nation. We like to delineate from the false traditional religious honor of Jah, and speak of the truth of this day.

We do realize that many who are sincerely His, still use the Greek names for the Father and His Son. We do not judge their hearts, but we lead into and preach truth. We are in transition on using these names, and do not believe we are called to be religious about the use of them.

We understand the problem in the US church. A false Jesus has arisen and is the abomination that works desolation. The misuse of His name, is but a very small part of this.
