What Country Number Two Traffic?

Might be a surprise to you but at number two traffic just behind the United States this month is Iran! When the truth of the Gospel is presented to any culture they respond! Last year Israel came in first place country traffic for one month! Languages are so important to reaching cultures that is why we have our Gospel Tract in 140 languages! To go out into all the world and preach the Gospel involves languages! James & Hamsa Sasse. IndiaJesusLovesYou.com

One Sacrifice! Two Kingdoms!

Matthew 9:13 “But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”  Commentary: What did Jesus mean here? What were the disciples going to have to learn? Would Jesus have to send them to school? They were just a bunch of regular guys! For three years Jesus was trying to prepare them for what was to come! These guys were not in the top of their class! Peter knew how to use a knife! Matthew was a tax cheat! The Sons of Thunder could start a bar brawl at the drop of a hat! Thomas even doubted God! These men were not graduate level material! Could Jesus teach old dogs new tricks? They were not going to learn their lesson until after the Cross! Experience is sometimes our best teacher! Jesus was telling them and us that all of humanity was going to redeemed not by the sacrifices of these men and women but the sacrifice of God himself was the mercy we were going to receive! The sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the Cross was the only mercy that would last forever! We have two Kingdoms in this world and the world to come! God’s Kingdom where he sacrificed himself for your gain and Satan who will try to sacrifice you for his gain! During our election cycle of 2020 be alert for the deception of words where a candidate is trying to convince you he is for you when really he is for himself! You have to read between the lines and perceive deception! Both Kingdoms are a sacrificial system yet one to sacrifice himself for you and the other to sacrifice you for his or her benefit! The church is no different! Follow those who sacrifice themselves for others not those that sacrifice others for their gain! A family is about sacrificing yourself for others! Any ministry should be about sacrificing ourselves for others! Such is the Kingdom of God! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Two Sides?

Did you ever ask yourself why we have two sides? Two political parties here in America! We have the best lawyers on the Supreme Court yet the judges on almost every case will take sides on any issue? Split decisions? We have one God yet an estimated 4200 religions in this world? We have the religious and the atheists! We have two branches of Islam the Sunni’s and the Shiites who have been fighting each other for 1400 years! However they are joining together in Iraq to kick us out but after we leave they will return to killing each other! We had the wars with the Catholics and the Protestants! We have the socialists and the capitalists! We have Democracies and Dictatorships! We have revolutions all the time to overthrow existing orders! We have two Kingdoms in this world! Good and evil! Heaven and Hell! God and Satan the leader of the rebellion against God! This rebellion started in Heaven! We have one Bible yet millions of books written and ideologies that oppose it! So right now which Kingdom are you in right now? Satan is so deceptive most do not even know they are working for him! God discriminates between good and evil! You will reside in one of two Kingdoms! Heaven or Hell! However you have made a choice already where you will spend your eternity! Embrace Christ and you embrace Heaven! Reject him and you embrace Hell! Do you want Heaven or Hell on earth? If you choose Hell on earth you cannot expect heaven in eternity! Choose Christ and his love and sacrifice for you who has purchased heaven for you with his own blood! ! James and Hamsa Sasse.

Only Two Ways! Romans 6:4

Hot or cold, right or wrong, abundance or lack, day or night, peace or war, light or darkness, freedom or slavery, innocent or guilty, satisfied or hungry, sight or blind, righteousness or evil, rain or drought, honor or dishonor, marriage or divorce, male or female, respect or disrespect, love or hate, creation or evolution, incarnation or reincarnation, birth or abortion, legal or illegal, citizen or alien, law or lawlessness, obedience or disobedience, loyalty or rebellion, authority or anarchy, heaven or hell, death or resurrection, burial or cremation and forgiveness or guilt. There are only one of two ways God cleanses or purifies his creation! Either through judgment or redemption! Which way he uses on you depends on what you do with his Son Jesus Christ! There is a way that seems right unto a man but those ways lead to death! The opposite of eternal life is eternal death! The choice is in our own hands! It would be foolish to reject those hands who were nailed on the Cross for your sin who took your place as guilty! You cannot acquit yourself of your sin! It takes the love of God to do it!  Pastor Oscar Cope, Mount Vernon Baptist Church, Fairburn, Georgia.

One Garden Two Tree’s! Genesis 3:22

” And the Lord God said, Behold, the man made in my image is become as one of us, to know good and evil, and now, lest he put forth his hand and take forth of the Tree of Life, and eat, and live forever.” Comment: So what is this all about? In the following verses Adam and Eve are kicked out of the Garden of Eden and the angels protect the Tree of Life where they cannot approach this tree! Man sinned against God to gain the knowledge of evil! He did evil to gain evil! The penalty of sin is death! Adam and Eve had not received the penalty yet so God had to guard the Tree of Life until Christ had paid the penalty of their sin on the Cross! Eternal life is a destiny spent in one of two places! Heaven or Hell! God had to protect Adam and Eve from themselves! No repentance is accepted by God outside of the Cross! The Anti-Christ and his followers will never confess they are sinners! Muslims do not believe they are sinners! A Hindu makes God into his own image and changes the image millions of times in his mind to accommodate his new sin! They make God! Remember after the Cross where did Jesus go for three days? He went into the heart of the earth and preached to the captives! This included all people from Adam and Eve to all who had lived up unto the Cross and included the Thief of the Cross! Now after the Cross Adam and Eve could partake of the Tree of Life! After the Cross the Tree of Life is open to all! To avoid the Tree of Life and try to live on the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil is sin against God! The knowledge of evil that you have was acquired through sin! The goodness of God is acquired through Jesus Christ and the sacrifice of death for your sin! God makes you right with him but you can never no matter how hard you try make yourself right with God! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Two National Anthems!

Samuel Francis Smith wrote the lyrics to “America (My Country Tis of Thee)” in 1831 while a student at the Andover Theological Seminary in Andover Massachusetts. The church-music composer Lowell Mason, a friend had asked him to translate the lyrics to some German school songbook into English or to write new lyrics to the same tunes. The “God Save the Queen” melody in Muzie Clement’s No. 3 also called “The Great National”, written as a tribute to Clement’s adopted country caught Smith’s attention at the time; rather than translating the lyrics from the German, he wrote his own American patriotic hymn to the melody, completing the lyrics in 30 minutes. Smith gave Mason the lyrics he had written, and the song was first performed in public on July 4, 1831, at a children’s Independence Day Celebration at Park Street Church in Boston. The first publication of “America” was done in 1832. For 100 years it was our National Anthem or National Hymn until 1931 when the “Star Spangled Banner” was adopted as our official National Anthem! Let us together celebrate America and remember the good she has done across the decades! The sacrifices her people have made in two world wars across Europe to stop tyranny and help freedom to reign! In wars across Asia and the Pacific and across the Middle East to promote freedom of people in bondage to tyranny! America has done more good for the world than any nation in history! For those that hate her they are free to leave America! The joke is those that hate her do not want to leave her? Millions of migrants have rushed to our shores and borders for a good reason! They have fled their own countries for America and there is no better testimony of the greatness of America! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Two Witnesses! Revelation 11:3

“And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days (3 1/2 years), clothed in sackcloth. Comment: So who are these two witnesses? The word witness means to bring to remembrance! Jesus said do this in remembrance of me! We are to remember what Jesus prophesized about the end times as we are half way through the seven year tribulation period in this chapter eleven! Notice in the earlier verse the Jewish Temple at Jerusalem has been rebuilt! That has not happened yet! Future! The Holy city has been tread down by the Gentiles for 3 1/2 years! The Jews have discovered they have been betrayed by the Anti-Christ in the middle of the Tribulation and he goes into the Temple as demands worship as God! From scripture we know he will be Jewish and a homosexual! Most Bible scholars believe these two witnesses are Elijah and Enoch! Remember Elijah and Enoch did not physically die but were raptured from the earth! They did not experience the resurrection from the dead! Now in chapter eleven they get their chance to experience this great faith building event! Remember at the rapture of the church millions of Christian’s will miss the resurrection from the dead experience! However when the Saints return with Christ at the end of the tribulation they will have this experience at the last great battle on earth the Battle of Armageddon! Everyone will be raised from the dead! Some to everlasting life and some to everlasting judgment! It all depends on what you do with the Judge! The scriptures in your Bible are like pieces of a puzzle and when you put them all together you see God!James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Two Sides of Coin! John 3:36

Greek Translation: “He that believeth giving God credit trusting with confidence on the Son hath everlasting life in the spirit and the soul and he that believeth not in disobedience to the Son shall not see life; but the wrath and anger of God with vengeance.” Comment: Hold it Pastor? I just do not hear these kind of scriptures from the American pulpit anymore? God has two sides! Love and wrath! Why is the Book of Revelation largely ignored by the church today? Because it messes up their theology! The scriptures are cherry picked to the point where God becomes a teddy bear and the more you squeeze him the more stuff he gives you! Today at least in America number one best sellers are all about me! Selfish as hell! Jet airplanes! Million dollar mansions! A lot of money to be made in the God business! If you just compromise the scriptures you can become popular! God is love! But his love is based upon the sacrifice of his Son for our sin on Calvary! Sin is never mentioned anymore and the specific sins in the scriptures are ignored such as homosexuality? Heaven and Hell are never mentioned? This is a strange time in history? Like the church has joined the world? So how is God’s wrath appeased? How do you escape the wrath of God? By accepting the sacrifice of God’s only Son made for your sin! God’s anger was poured out on his only Son! This is the love of God! But if you reject his love vengeance does not escape you? So what are my sins? Read your Bible! You will not hear them from the American pulpit anymore! The only sin that will doom you forever is to reject Jesus Christ! All judgment is given to the Son! If you went before an earthly judge and blasphemed his name just before sentencing what would this judge do to you? Stop being stupid and plead your case and repent to the King of the earth and judge of Heaven and earth today! Plead guilty and be set free! No earthly judge will do this! Jesus walked through the fires of Hell so you would not have to! Jesus has the keys to heaven and hell! Let him open the prison door to escape the flames! We are under Grace but only because the law for our sin was paid for Jesus on the Cross! Never try to pay for your own sins! It will condemn you to separation from God forever! James and Hamsa Sasse.
