II Timothy 4:8 (Please Read) Commentary: Do you love his appearing? In an earlier post we discussed another scripture where Jesus said he would appear to those that are looking for him! Not everyone is looking for Jesus! In fact much of the world will weep and cry when he shows up! Their wicked schemes will come to an end! Those that hate Jesus promote unrighteousness in the earth! Abortion! Gay marriage! Homosexuality! Transgenderism! Promote every wicked imagination of the heart! We are created in the image of God not the image of sin! Those that hate God promote removing Bibles and prayer from schools! Deprive our children of truth! Promote evolution! Remove crosses and the commandments from our land! Remove nativity scenes! They do not love his appearing! Just the opposite! Hate his appearing! So how do we promote Jesus appearing? Get Bibles into schools and government! Get Bibles into prisons, motels and hotels! Distribute Gospel Tracts! Encourage and support your church pastor! Financially support the work of your church! Much of the world will fight against God and are fools enough to think they can win? Did you know when you pray for your enemies you are promoting Jesus into their lives! Your enemies cannot stop you for praying for them! This is how you love your enemies! What is the crown of righteousness used in this verse? There is none righteous but God alone so how do we receive this righteousness? The righteousness of God is the right God has on men his creation! Yes we did not evolve! Righteousness is the state commanded by God and is judged by his standard! We do not achieve righteousness but receive it! A gift from God! We live by faith and not by law! No mortal flesh can keep the law! This is why God had to become flesh! To pay the penalty for our sinful flesh! Flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God! That is why all of us will go to the grave then he will raise us up! Jesus wore a crown of thorns so we could wear a crown of righteousness! At the Cross Jesus established our righteousness forever! Paying the penalty for our sin! This is why we look for his appearing again! He accomplished for us what we could never do on our own! Without faith it is impossible to please God! Not faith in ourselves but in him! We receive the righteousness God has provided for us in trusting that his way is the way back to heaven and no other way will work! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Plague of Public Education!
To have our youthful population in the hands of secular teachers will be to sell them to the Ishmaelites! A great many parents sell their children by putting them out as apprentices to men of no character, or by placing them in institutions where ungodliness is the paramount influence! Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892), Prince of Preachers, Opposed liberal and pragmatic tendencies. Comment: Charles Spurgeon witnessed the beginning of the Charles Darwin crusade to make disciples of our youth away from God and embrace atheism! Our public schools have been the vehicle to indoctrinate our youth into believing the lie that evolution and its theories are science! The founders of socialism and communism like Marks, Engels, Lenin and others believed the way to indoctrinate youth is to control their education by institutionalizing them by control with mandated public education! Charles Darwin here in America has more disciples than Jesus Christ! I have requested to President Trump to implement school vouchers where parents can choose their own schools! Right now the Democratic Party controls our public education system promoting ungodly ideologies! Freedom is always more choices! This includes our education system! James and Hamsa Sasse.

Greatest Influence?
So who had the greatest influence in my life? Who kept me on the straight and narrow during my youth? Who had the most influence? My parole officer! Jessie Watters, Fox News
Looking for Who?
Hebrews 9:28 Greek Translation: “So Christ our anointed High Priest was once offered to carry up the sins of many, and to those that look for him with anticipation, expectancy, patience, and hope for the redemption of their bodies shall he appear a second time without sin unto Salvation with deliverance and preservation of our spiritual and eternal soul with all past, present and future deliverances.” Comment: You know the old saying what you see is what you get? Ever buy a used car and two weeks later it needs a transmission? The truth is what you are looking for is what you get! Most of my life I was looking for the wrong things! Pride led me to pursue vanity! How important could I become to people? Success was the tool to promote myself! It was only me in my trophy case! I was my own idol! I worshiped me! Self-worship! I built my own altar and set myself on it! I replaced God with me! I built my own throne and set myself up as God! Vanity of vanities! Common theme with the human race! To worship me I had to put God down! Put myself above him and demand worship! A little Anti-Christ! The one I was not looking for was the one I really needed! No mortal could help me! Self was in the way and I could not see! My crashing down off my throne was the best thing that ever happened to me! Then Christ found me when everyone else abandoned me! Forty five years later I am still looking at the Christ who found me! Look and receive his love everyday! No longer alone! He became a failure for me on the Cross so I could have a victory over myself! If you embrace Christ he will pick you up out of the miry clay! You will walk in the victory Jesus has purchased for you! He has defeated your every enemy on the Cross! Sin and death! Who is Satan looking for? Those who follow Christ! He will mock them! Persecute them! Why? If our faith were of no effect he would leave us alone! The veracity of his efforts to persecute Christians confirms our faith in Christ! We are persecuted yet delivered from evil! Who are you looking for? Satan reminds you of your past but God your future! Today can change your tomorrow! This can be the day of your salvation! Jesus hung between two thieves on the Cross! One looked to Jesus and got saved! The other rejected Jesus and lost his soul! There are two kinds of people in eternity just like here on earth! There are forgiven sinners in Heaven and unforgiven sinners in Hell. Which thief are you? James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Stimulus Money?
If I get a stimulus check I have been pondering what to do with the money? Ten percent goes to His church and offerings for other ministries! But what about the balance? Since I am too old to waste it on another woman I have decided to pay off my debt for my local cemetery burial plot!
Signs & Plagues!
Luke 21:25-27 “There shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars, and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring: Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then they shall see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.” Comment: Jesus disciples asked him in Matthew Chapter 24 what will be the signs of your coming again and the end of the world? Jesus gave them some troubling signs but he also gave them some encouraging signs! Jesus said the Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all the nations and then the end shall come! The end means judgment for Satan and his followers and redemption for the saved in Christ! This explains the resistance to the Gospel! Satan does not want his evil Kingdom to end! This is why Doctor Ben Carson was sued because he had a Bible study going on! Today in America if you open your Bible in the wrong place lawyers will flock around you like a vulture on a corpse! Jesus left some more encouraging words in verse 28 of Luke Chapter 21. Jesus said, “When you begin to see these things come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads: for your redemption draweth nigh.” As the world can only see the trouble we look up to the heavens where our help comes from! Two opposite perspectives! Two opposite Kingdoms! Two opposite outcomes! Two opposite ways of living! One by faith and one by self works! Who do you look to during this Coronavirus! Government? Politicians? How about God? The word Corona means crown! Is Christ wearing your crown or is death? Man’s promise to you if you pay is an undertaker and a burial plot! God has promised you at death to raise you from the dead! And God himself paid the price! Then Jesus has prepared a place for you in heaven! Is that a deal or what? A memorial park got caught in this Coronavirus because over years they had been selling more burial plots than they actually had! Yes time share burial plots! Maybe they can double stack them? Do you want to trust men or God? The choice is still yours to make! God asked the Jews before judgment and captivity how much longer will you be of two opinions? Heaven or Hell! Democrat or Republican? Truth is they cannot both be right! I have only one opinion! Christ is my Lord and Savior yesterday, today and forever! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
True Friend!
A true friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out! Walter Winchell; Comment: Jesus said I will never leave you nor forsake you! I found this to be true on my death bed! James & Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Prophecy & Plagues!
Revelation 11:6 “These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy, and have power over water to turn them into blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues.” Comment: The prophecies of God predict good things and bad things! Redemption or judgment! Right now we are in the dispensation of grace! However here this grace period has ended in the last 3 1/2 years of the Tribulation period of history! Jesus has sent his two prophets Moses and Elijah as preparations for his return to earth! When Christ returns the Kingdoms of this world have become the Kingdoms of the Lord and of his Christ and he shall reign forever and ever! Jesus will return suddenly with his saints from heaven for the last great battle on earth! Armageddon! Man is deceived and stubborn so he will put up a fight to the end! Satan cannot win but he has deceived men into thinking they can! Deceived into thinking they can build their own Kingdom! A kingdom that will perish! Here God sends two of his prophets from heaven back to earth! Moses and Elijah! Remember Moses turned water into blood in Egypt thousands of years earlier! Also Elijah stayed rain from heaven for 3 1/2 years thousands of years earlier in history! Jesus gives them power to defeat the Anti-Christ and his followers! Power to bring plagues upon men in judgment of rejecting Christ! The Millennium cannot come by the efforts of men! Men will oppose Christ then as they do today! Taking prayer out of schools! Removing the Ten Commandments from the view of our children! Taking Crosses down across our land! Removing Bibles from instruction to our children in schools! Removing nativity scenes! Promoting evil with legalization of deadly drugs to our children! Promoting homosexuality, lesbianism, transgenderism confusing children of their sexual identity! Promoting gay marriage! Promoting abortion and open borders! Did you know heaven has a border and so does hell! Satan may win some battles but he will lose the war! They will lose their eternity to hell! The battle on earth today and then is between good and evil! It will continue until Christ returns and binds Satan for a thousand years! Jesus will put all his enemies under his feet! The season of grace will end soon! Get serious with God for he got serious with you and went to the Cross for you! Time will close the final chapter on our life here on earth! Did you use that time to promote or resist Christ? Time is short for all of us! What you do with Christ determines blessings or plagues! Either forever! You will never be able to blame God for your rejection of Christ because that is a decision you have made! Choose this day who you will serve! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Servants & Plagues!
Matthew `10:1 “And when he had called unto his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and “to heal” all manner of diseases.” Comment: When Jesus calls anyone to the ministry he gives them power over evil spirits and the associated diseases! What has happened to the 21st Century church here in America is the church has submitted to secularism and has been neutered of it’s power! You cannot find a Bible in a hospital anymore! Years ago was not the case. Hospice forbids Bibles! When I had my back surgeries back in the 1990’s I was witnessing to another man in the same room I was in! I prayed for him and shared the love of God to him! He wanted a Bible! I went down to the nursing station and asked for a Bible he could use while he was in hospital. None were available! Sad to hear New York is kicking out Samaritan’s Purse who set up their hospital beds to help New Yorkers! Now that they do not need these beds they say get out because we disagree with your position on LGBT communities! When you really have the love of God in your heart you help people who even disagree with you! That is what a servant does! Whether the woman at the well or the woman caught in adultery! Jesus did heal me and with human intervention! The Apostle Paul instructed the church to call the elders of the church to pray for the sick! To anoint the sick with oil and pray! To anoint the sick translates in the Greek to apply medicine and then to pray! We always pray with expectation! Sometimes Jesus either says yes, no or wait on me! Why did not Jesus heal himself on the Cross? Not my will but thy will be done! Jesus could not heal anyone in his home town because of their unbelief! When you come to Christ the greatest challenge is convincing your family! Why? They only remember the old you! Not the born again you! The religious leaders mocked Jesus! He saved others can he not save himself? Come off the Cross if you are God! Jesus ministry was to defeat disease and death! He had to go through death and hell to deliver us from both! He could not raise the dead if he were dead! What is an unclean spirit? What is a clean spirit? A spirit is either manifested from God or from Satan! A clean spirit is from God! Remember Jesus promised to send his Holy Spirit to his disciples at his return to heaven from earth! The Holy Spirit has the power over an unclean spirit! Without the Spirit of God dwelling in men an evil spirit has power over men! The word “to heal” is an interesting Greek word! It means to be a servant! To come along side and help others! The Holy Spirit is a servant! To have the interest of others over your own interests! That is why Samaritan’s Purse went to New York! To be exposed to death while helping the sick of the plague! Jesus said he who is greatest in the Kingdom of God is servant of all! We serve regardless of the cost because that is what our Savior did! In the midst of the struggle to pray for the very ones that mock our Christ like in New York! In Christ you will never die alone! He will be there to receive you to heaven or he will heal you for a purpose of ministry down here on earth for a season! Paul had a thorn in the flesh! He may leave the thorn to humble you for an effective ministry here on earth! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Who Touched Me?
Mark 5:29 “And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.” Comment: After this woman touched the hem of Jesus robe he asked the crowd who touched me? The Greek word used for disease or plague here means the flesh has a softness or is a delicacy for disease! Disease thrives in our flesh! It is the perfect environment for death! The disease is acquired by contact! The Roman whip is related to this word! By his stripes we are healed! Jesus got 39 stripes on his back one for everyone of our diseases! This woman got the disease by contact but got healed by contact with Jesus! Our contact with sin leads to disease and death! Our contact with Jesus brings eternal life! Jesus went around healing the sick and raising the dead! I asked the Lord would it not be wonderful if you would come back now to America and raise the 65 thousand who have died from the Coronavirus? Jesus had to rebuke his disciples and that includes me! What do the scriptures say? Sorry Lord! After death the judgment! Some to everlasting life and some to everlasting judgment! I have already raised them from the dead! If Jesus would return today and raise the dead what would the liberal American press say? The same thing the press said in the first Century! The deceiver is back! They stole his body! He did not die! He is an imposter! He is here right now he did not die! What would the politicians say like Herod said? Crucify him! Follow not Jesus but my political party! Congress would craft a law to crucify him again! That is why Jesus will only come back at the end of the world’s destruction! The world trying to live without Jesus! Who are you in contact with? Satan or God? Who is your King? Jesus or who? Who do you follow? Yourself? I have decided to follow Jesus as the old hymn writer from India wrote years ago! Do you contact disease and death or the Savior? Repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand! Man fights hard to keep his sin and death! If Jesus would return today everyone would be out of a job! Hospitals would be closed! Funeral homes would have to close! Why would not the world want this cure? They want to keep their power over men! They would have to turn from their wicked ways and repent! They would have to give up playing God! Perhaps we are learning that we cannot keep our jobs and the world system is not our Savior? Without faith it is impossible to please God! If America comes out from this epidemic with a strong faith in God then it will have been worth it all! If we could just believe! My concern is if we come through this pandemic and return to business as usual then we would have lost the lesson we should have learned through this suffering of our people! We cannot make it without Christ but many fools will try! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
