Colossians 4:5 Greek Translation: “Walk following Christ in wisdom with the knowledge that your relationship to God differentiating between spiritual wisdom and worldly wisdom understanding true wisdom comes from God. Walk in wisdom to those outside or strangers to the covenant promises knowing Christ has purchased our time through salvation.” Commentary: If we miss Christ in our journey here on earth we have wasted our life in the time here and the costly sacrifice God has made for you! At the time or point in our life where we denounce our sin and accept Christ our entire time here on earth is purchased back! Christ then has saved you from your past, present and future sin! He is the same yesterday, today and forever! Whether you find Christ at ten years old or one hundred years old your lost or wasted time is purchased back! It is though as you have never sinned! The thief on the Cross is one of the best examples! He had just a few minutes to live yet he received Christ as his Savior then Jesus told him this day you will be in paradise with me! His whole life and wasted time in sin was purchased back! The other thief on the Cross rejected Christ so his entire life was wasted here on earth and his eternity separated from God forever! There is only one choice on earth that has eternal consequences! What do you do with Jesus Christ? Everyone including you have either rejected him or accepted him! Where is your position in Christ right now? James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Do Not Add or Subtract!
Revelation 22:18-19 Greek Translation: “For I testify unto every man that hears the intelligent written words of the prophetic rank of this Book of writing where the names of the souls of the saved are written down and that any man who shall add unto it shall add the plagues that are written in this book. And if any man shall take away from the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the Book of Life with the names of the saved written therein, and out of the Holy City inclusive with those separated, consecrated and devoted to serve God and the promises to them written in this Book.” Comment: What would be some examples of adding to the Word of God? Darwinism, Evolution, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, atheism, humanism, secularism, socialism, communism, fascism, Nazism, ANTIFA, and the list goes on and on! Democracy established in our U.S. Constitution is the closest we can get to the Theocracy of God! Our three branches of government are patterned after the Trinity! Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The trinity of government is the legislative, executive and judicial branches. This balance of power assures liberty and freedom and helps to prevent tyranny! The Father is the law giver or legislative branch. Moses was given the ten Commandments! Jesus Christ his Son is the executive branch! He executes the laws with judgment and redemption! All judgment is given unto the Son! The Holy Spirit is the interpreter of the Law! He is the judicial branch! When I read scriptures the Holy Spirit interprets the Bible for me! Do you think the Apostle John understood everything he recorded in the Book of Revelation given to him by the angel? No! The Holy Spirit helps you to interpret it! God has created all people since the beginning of time! That is God has chosen you! He has given you life! All that is left for you to do is choose him! We can refuse to believe the scriptures! We can choose our own way of sin and death! We can refuse Creation and replace it with Evolution! We can reject the Trinity! We can reject the virgin birth! We can reject salvation! We can reject the resurrection! We can reject the sacraments! We can embrace atheism! We can refuse the blood of Christ! Happy Holidays but no Crosses allowed! Do not mention his name! Do not say Christmas! To mock his name is no problem! Remember the Jefferson Bible? Thomas Jefferson tore out every page of the Bible he did not believe! The Jefferson Bible is a very thin Bible! It is on display today in some museums! He subtracted from the Word of God! You are free to chose Heaven or Hell! When it comes to your Bible it is better to have poor math skills so you cannot add or subtract from it! It will save your soul! There are blessings and consequences in life and eternity based on our choices! If the culture of America rejects Christ then the Democracy will not save you! Evil people will elect evil leaders! This is why our Founding Father’s said this Democracy will not survive unless we have a religious people to sustain it! We are in a war between good and evil! You are going to have to choose a side most likely you already have! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Why Suffer? Revelation 1:9
Greek Translation: I John, who also am among you a brother of the same womb (Born Again) and companion in tribulation. In tribulation of being broken, squeezed, crushed with the pressure of a burden upon my spirit in a confined space (Prison). And in the Kingdom of God under all circumstances with endurance towards people. I was in the isle of Patmos, for the Word of God and for the testimony being a witness, certifying and declaring Jesus Christ. Comment: Suffering by the world brings death! Suffering by God has brought men Salvation! John suffered for a testimony of Jesus Christ! Suffering in Christ brings purpose in your life! To live is Christ and to die is gain! We have an interesting story about India. We spent two of our three years there on a remote mountain village named Yercaud in South India. They had an old English church up there that had the graveyard surrounding the church! I explained in a previous post why the British did this. Since I had to walk through the cemetery to get to the front door of the church I noticed some of the grave markers. There were two grave markers of a missionary couple from England that spent their whole life preaching the Gospel in India! But I noticed next to their graves was a little grave marker of a four year old girl. This was their daughter who died of malaria while ministering to the people of India! I wrote there names down and then inquired of the elders of the village if anyone knew about them? An old man in the village told me the story his grandfather told him many years ago. This couple had a powerful ministry bringing hundreds of Hindus and Muslims to Christ! They had been appointed to a three year mission work to India. However after their daughter died there they spent the rest of their lives ministering in India! They decided their daughter’s death would not be in vain! Her sacrifice was not to be wasted! Jesus said, “This do in remembrance of me!” As we take the bread and the cup let us remember he did not let the cup pass from him! A sacrifice was provided to you for your Salvation! Remember him when you are suffering for he has never forgotten you! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
This Do In Remembrance of Me! (Communion)

Do Not Follow The Crowd!
Those people should not be listened to who keep saying the voice of the people is the voice of God! The riotousness of the crowd is always very close to madness! Alcuin of York (735-804 A.D.) Comment: When I was in high school back in the 1960’s my grandfather Edgar was a simple farmer but very wise! He would have these wisdom sessions with us that at the time did not seem important. However we listened to him! He said, “Jimmy never follow the crowd! It was the crowd that crucified our Lord!” With the Vietnam war going on then and the race riot’s and assassinations I followed my grandfather’s advice and he proved wise and helped me in many ways preparing for life! Thankyou. James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
