I hope that this teaching will edify you and glorify our Father in heaven

Anybody can quote scripture, we see it all the time.
But everybody doesn't quote scripture in Truth.
The Bible talks about, rightly dividing the word of truth.
(2 Tim. 2:15  Study to show thyself approved unto God,
a workman that need not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.)
The next question might be, what should we study to be able to
rightly divide the Word of Truth? The Bible of course, which brings us to the
next thing. The Bible is not a matter of private interpretation
(2 Pet. 1:20  Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture
is of any private interpretation.) Study the Bible to get the interpretation,
don't give it your own interpretation.

Paul wrote that the letter kills, but that the Spirit gives life.
(2 Cor. 3:6  Who also has made us able ministers of the new testament;
not of the letter, but of the Spirit: for the letter kills,
but the Spirit gives life.) The letter that kills is literally the Law of Moses.
Jesus, the last Adam is the giver of a quickening Spirit that brings life to the letter.
(1 Cor. 15:45  And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul;
the last Adam was made a quickening Spirit.)

Finding the Truth does not lie in reading a multitude of books,
listening to a couple of sermons, seeing what everybody else is saying,
and taking out of it what makes sense for you and then compile them into
a doctrine which you cling to and tell other people about.

Truth should start with the premise that Truth is not simply a concept,
but that Truth is a Person, Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the embodiment
of Truth and without Him there is no Truth. When Pilate came in contact with Truth,
he didn't know that Truth was in front of him because he didn't have the Spirit
to discern the Truth, even when he was face to face with the Truth. Pilate knew
there was something about the Man in front of him, but he didn't know what and he
couldn't recognize Jesus as the Truth, that is why he washed his hands to distance
himself from handling the Truth or going against the Truth.
(John 14:6  Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life:
no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.) also (John 18:37  Pilate therefore said unto him,
Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou says that I am a king. To this end was I born,
and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth.
Every one that is of the truth hears my voice.)

The problem is that we have heard the lie for so long that we mistake it for the Truth.
We need to repent, change our minds, to follow God's Word, the Truth, even if we don't
understand it all or have a revelation of everything written in the Word of Truth. God
will reveal His secrets to His servants the Prophets. (Amos 3:7  Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing,
but he reveals his secret unto his servants the prophets.) We have one such a prophet,
a true man of God here in South Africa, Prophet Kobus van Rensburg, who expounds and
explains, and opens the door to understand the deep secrets contained in God's Word to us.
Prophet Kobus van Rensburg is not the only prophet, but he is by far a prophet for our time, through which
God speaks the hidden mysteries, and because I accept the Prophet, I get the prophets reward,
by understanding more and more of God's Word by myself. Have a look at www.spiritword.org.za.
It is as if suddenly but for a while now I have stepped into the mind of God Himself, and He reveals Himself to me.

It is imperative that we understand God's Word concerning the Kingdom, for if we don't then the evil one comes and snatches way the Word that has been sown in our hearts. (Matt. 13:19  When any one hears the word of the kingdom, nd understands it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catches away that which was sown in his heart. his is he which received seed by the way side.) Some of the biggest lies floating around now for years dying a slow ut sure death is the so-called end time teachings, of the Rapture, The mark of the beast, The New Jerusalem, rhe Streets of Gold, the Great Tribulation, Israel being God's special people, the Temple being rebuild in Jerusalem and other fantasy tales that's not even good enough for a Shrek sequel.
God's prophesies are supposed to build us up, to strengthen us, to give hope;
not to instill fear, that is not the fear of the Lord.
(1 Cor. 14:3  But he that prophesies speaks unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.)
God's Truth shall prevail. No lie can stand in the presence of Truth.
John 8:32  And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
The lie keeps you in bondage, the Truth sets you free.

B Blessed and may God's grace overflow in abundance, and may His mercies never end.
