I Corinthians 4:11-13 “Even unto this present hour how are we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwelling place. And laboring working with our hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it: Being defamed, we entreat: we are made the the filth of this world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day.” The Apostle Paul.

Lying Apostles! Revelation 2:2
Greek Translation: “I know thy works you have done for me, your labor and your patience and cannot stand them that are evil, evil retreating from the battle between good and evil and also endangering the lives of others. You have tried them and proven them evil who said they are Apostles and showed them to be liars.” Comment: The Church at Ephesus in the 1st Century was facing the same challenges the 21st Century in America is facing! There are exceptions as with the Church at Ephesus but a lot of the Church in America has retreated from the battle! I believe the 501c Tax Exemption is the biggest culprit! Even in the church the love of money is the root of all evil as Jesus said! The battle between good and evil in our culture is never or seldom mentioned from the pulpits across America! It is all about getting wealthy, famous and all the stuff your God can do for you! It is never about what you must do for your God! Selfishness sells! A lying Apostle will never call out evil but will look the other way! He will even endorse it by his neglect to call out what it is! It is as though their soul has been numbed by evil! They cannot feel the fires of Hell! Their soul is dead! So what sin are they dead unto? Homosexuality, lesbianism, transgenderism, abortion, Darwinism, Islam and the list goes on! They retreat from the evil and the obvious! An Apostle is supposed to be an ambassador for Christ! That is he or she represents Christ before the people! An Apostle can never be greater than the one he represents! If I make myself greater than Christ then I will not speak up against evil! I will retreat from the fight! Jesus came to defeat evil! Not to write best selling books! Not to be popular! If we do not call sin sin then their blood is on our hands! We cannot be like Pilate who tried to wash his hands from the blood of Jesus! Love means nothing unless defined in the light of judgment! Judgment for evil! My evil and your evil that he took upon himself for our evil or sin! Those that retreat from Christ will have no hope in this life or the life afterwards! God Bless! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
The Trump’s & Apostles Creed!
The Apostles Creed is never used by the Orthodox Church! They only use the Nicene Creed! The Apostles Creed arose as a baptism creed. Donald and Malenia were married at an Episcopalian Church in Florida. They only recite the Apostles Creed at Baptism and the Nicene Creed at Communion! Malenia is from the Eastern Orthodox and they only use the Nicene Creed! This may explain the misunderstanding at the Bush funeral! It may demonstrate their convictions! Some of our former Presidents would recite the Quran if you gave them a copy at a Service! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Who is the Woman? Revelation 12:1
First when you look at the Greek this woman translates as a married woman! So why did the English translation say just woman instead of married woman? Because the translators use just one English word to translate from the Hebrew or Greek to best represent the meaning! From verse two she is pregnant so we can assume she is married however the woman riding the beast in Revelation chapter 17 represents Satan! She is also married but to Satan! In verse one here heaven is translated as God’s dwelling place which includes the sun, moon and the stars! So heaven is inclusive of God’s creation including us! This woman in her brilliancy is clothed with the sun, moon and stars! The word crown means a conqueror rather than a crown just worn on her head! So who is this woman married to? The number twelve is significant! Who represents the twelve stars? We have twelve apostles! We have twelve patriarch’s in the Old Testament! We have the twelve tribes of Israel. Many believe the woman represents the church for we are the bride of Christ! However some believe the woman represents Israel. Some others believe the woman represents the virgin Mary! She gives birth to the church though Israel. I have no problem with all three interpretations! If you make the church exclusive and end up with replacement theology church history has shown us you can become anti-Semitic then much harm can come to the Jews and God’s Kingdom through the church! Israel is included in the Book of Revelation with the 144000 Jews out of 12 tribes redeemed during the 7 year tribulation period! Studying the Book of Revelation is challenging but there is a special blessing for reading and studying this Book! (Revelation 1:3) Scholars say that there are more references to the Old Testament in this Book of Revelation than any other New Testament Book! Problem is the Apostle John does not directly quote these but weaves them into the Book! Many referrals to Book of Daniel, Ezekiel, Isaiah and the Psalms! The most important point here is what is God telling you about the prophetic Book of Revelation? You have to read it and study it yourself if you want the answer! James and Hamsa Sasse.

Christmas Message from the Martyred! 150 A.D.
Since we find it recorded in the memoirs of the Apostles that he is the Son of God, and since we call him the Son, we have understood that he proceeded before all creatures from the Father by the power of his will…. and that he became man by the virgin, in order that the disobedient which proceeded from the serpent might receive its destruction in the same way it devised its origin. For Eve, who was a virgin and undefiled, have conceived by the word of the serpent, brought forth disobedience and death. But the virgin received faith and joy when the Angel Gabriel announced the good news to her that the Spirit of the Lord would come upon her and the power of the highest would overshadow her. Therefore, also, that which was begotten by her is the Son of God. Justin Martyr (100-165 A.D.), Early Church Father and Apologist, Martyred in Rome 165 A.D. Comment: This is why Jesus said we must be born again! We as descendants of Eve can never live right before men and God! It is impossible because we were conceived by our ancestors who believed the word of Satan rather than the Word of God! Sin produces sin! We cannot just be born once! The virgin birth makes it possible to be born again! The choice is up to you! You can believe your ancestors or you can believe the Word of God! Why not choose the best Christmas gift this Christmas and receive the Savior born in a manger and sacrificed to redeem your life from Hell and separation from God forever! Justin Martyr paid the ultimate sacrifice to get this good news to you! The truth is costly! Never forget it! Merry Christmas! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Homosexual Behavior?
Does Scripture forbid homosexual behavior? Of course it does! Jesus and His apostles taught that God’s intention in marriage is for a man to leave his parents and join himself to one woman. American Theologian Michael Horton (1964- )
