Who Supplied the Slaves to America?

African slaves brought to America were purchased at Muslim slave markets. Over the 1400 years of Islam conquest, Muslims enslaved an estimated 180 million Africans.

Who is the Whore? Revelation 17:6

“And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyr’s of Jesus, and when I saw her, I wondered with great astonishment.” Comment: So who is the whore? Here is what Coffman’s Commentary says, “The description of the whore was once the true church of God!.” John Gill’s Expository; “The blood thirstiness of the Church of Rome.” Commentary Critical and Explainitary of the Whole Bible; “The church becoming a world loving Apostate, moves his sorrowful astonishment at a sorrowful change.” Vincenti Word Studies; “The testimony of Jesus Christ has been the cause of their deaths.” Wesley’s Expository Notes; “So that Rome may be called, ‘The slaughter house of the Martyrs.” There are many more commentaries if you want to do a more detailed study! Remember John the Baptist was martyred at Jerusalem! How about Stephen! So here the Jews were the whore riding the horse! How about Babylon? The future Anti-Christ with his False Prophet will be ruling the entire world during the seven year tribulation period just before Christ’s second coming! Our Savior is a Jew faithful and true! Remember the church is also represented by a woman! The church is the Bride of Christ! With every generation and in the 21st Century you have the Bride and you have the whore! In America today we have some major denominations giving leadership in the church to homosexuals, transgenders and lesbians? This is the whore! I heard the prayer in the congress this week by a Chaplin that throughout his whole prayer never mentioned the name of Jesus? He called it the people’s house but without Jesus it will never be God’s House! The best defense and offense is to know the Holy Scripture of your Bible! This will keep you out of apostacy! You can discern the evil spirits of Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Darwinism, socialism, atheism and every other man made religion on this planet! You see the difference between every mortal on earth and Jesus Christ is that Christ was both man and God! This fact separates him from all mortals! The 21 Coptic Christians who were beheaded for their faith in Christ knew and understood that their future was not in the hands of men but with Christ and him alone! We live by faith and we die by faith for the one who has promised to raise us from the dead! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Who is Worthy? Revelation 5:——

Who is worthy? They looked everywhere in heaven and on the earth but could find no one worthy to open the seven seals of judgment on the earth! Then a revelation came that only the Lamb of God was worthy to open the seals to release the judgments! Why was Christ only worthy? Because he took our judgment upon himself at Calvary! If you do not let Christ take your judgment then you take your own judgment! Christ released the judgments upon the earth to judge those who have rejected his judgment for them! This is the one and only unpardonable sin! Why? Because if you reject Christ and the judgment he took for you then you have rejected the only one who could pardon you from your sin! This Easter do not let the season pass without receiving the Passover lamb as the sacrifice for you! Remember he makes us worthy!!James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Believe in Who? Mark 1:15

We see here that John the Baptist was thrown into prison by Herod. After this Jesus begins his three year ministry beginning in Galilee. Did you notice what Jesus said here? He said to believe in the Gospel! Believe in the good news! The word gospel in the Greek means a reward with the good news! Wait a minute? Why did not Jesus say believe in me? He did later but here at the beginning of his ministry he had not gone to the Cross yet which would be three years later! So what is the Gospel here he is talking about? He is referring to what had been written about him in the Old Testament! He said Moses spoke of me! Believe in my creation as described in the Book of Genesis for evolutionists will come later to try to discredit me! Believe in the Gospel of the New Testament soon to be written! Believe the Gospel of the Book of the Revelation which will be written in about 60 years later that will explain and prophesize my second coming! Believe the Gospel of both the Old Testament and the New Testament! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Who is Worthy?

Revelation Chapter Five: Commentary; Good question! I am glad you asked! It seems challenging for most to ask this question and more challenging to get the right answer! God does not give us multiple choice questions! You either know or you do not know! Do not feel bad this question seemed to be challenging in Heaven! The question in Heaven was answered by asking who was not worthy to open the seven seals of the Book to pour out judgment upon the earth! Notice some honorable mentions of those not worthy to open the seals! The Father was not worthy! The Holy Spirit was not worthy! The angels were not worthy! The twenty four elders were not worthy! The four beasts were not worthy! No man in heaven and on earth or under the earth was worthy! No King or priest in the earth was worthy! In our natural state all men on the earth are fit for judgment! All have sinned and come short of the glory of God! So who is our sin against! Our sin is against the Father! Our sin is not against the Son but the Father! Christ sacrificed himself on the Cross to reconcile you to his Father in Heaven! Christ provided a way of escape from your judgment! He took your judgment on the Cross! This is why the Father has rendered all judgment unto the Son! So only Christ in Heaven was worthy to open the Book after taking it out of the Father’s right hand and loose judgment into the earth! Judgment on who? Those that have rejected Christ! If we reject Christ then our sin expands not just against the Father but against the Son! This is an unreconcilable sin! This is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit and the complete Trinity! You have now gone over the edge with no return! Now we have committed the unpardonable sin! Jesus said of Judas who betrayed Jesus it would have been better if this man had not been born! Why did Jesus say this? Because Judas chose to reject the only one who was going to take his judgment on the Cross! Had he not been born he would not have made a choice for eternal separation from God! However had Judas not betrayed Jesus someone else would have! You or me! This is why evangelism is so important as Jesus commanded us to go out into all the world and preach the Gospel! Do not let the popular culture try to conform you into being silent about Jesus! Shout his name from the roof tops! Jesus will either be your Savior or your Judge! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Who is Worthy? Revelation 5: 1-14

Worthy to do what? To open the seven seals of the book in the hand of the Father! To bring judgment upon the earth! So who was not worthy to open the book? This book is your Bible my friend in heaven! All judgment is rendered according to His Word! The strong angel was not worthy! The elders, angels, saints, four beasts, patriarchs, disciples, Jews, Gentiles, not anyone in heaven except one! Who? Who is worthy to render judgment on earth from heaven? The one that took your judgment upon himself for your sin while on earth!  When Jesus took the book out of the hand of the Father a celebration broke out in heaven! A new song was written! The prayers of the saints were released! The song of redemption was sung in heaven! God now closes his plan of redemption on earth and judgment is released on those that have rejected Christ! Seven judgments come upon the earth! Your decision on Christ has current and eternal consequences! Your eternity rests on what you do with Christ! Today on earth there is redemption and judgment! However the redemption chapter will close one day on all of us! Were you wise to receive him or were you a fool to reject him? Have you made the right choice? If you have not time will run out on all of us here on earth! Time is forever in heaven but the time of judgment ticks forward on every human born on earth! You can stop that clock of judgment by starting your walk with Jesus today here on earth!  James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Who Get’s In? Revelation 21:8

The best way to answer this question is to describe who does not get in? The first listed are the fearful and unbelieving! Fear and unbelief go together like bacon and eggs! They simply do not believe the Gospel of Jesus Christ! They substitute an ideology for Christ and the Kingdom of God! Rather they replace Christ with themselves! Good examples today would be Darwinism and socialism! Atheism! Too many to list here! A true believer in Christ has no duplicity! They do not try to add or take away anything in our scriptures! We do not try to marry any sin with Christ! As the reformers said Christ and Christ alone! The abominable are those that are foul and stink because they have replaced the worship of Christ with their own self-worship! They replace God and make themselves the object of worship! Hello Satan! Murderers are those that kill mankind who are made in the Image of God! Whoremongers translated from the Greek means a male prostitute! It is any immoral human sexuality committed outside of marriage! Do you see how tricky the Devil is? This is why the push for homosexual marriage! However it is illegitimate because God describes marriage as between one man and one woman! It is like Satan trying to marry Christ to get into the Kingdom of God! Sorcerers are drug users and dealers! We get our word pharmacy from this word! Idoltry is simply idol worship.  They are also known as image breakers! They create their own images and worship them! Self-worship! Brimstone is hot sulfur like that molten liquid that flows out of an active volcano! So are all these sins pardonable? Yes except one! To reject Jesus Christ is the only unpardonable sin! Why? Because he is the God that has pardoned you for he sacrificed himself to redeem you! All you have to do is to confess your sin and repent! Walk away from your sin! Let Christ take your sin! He did on Calvary!What if our criminal justice system worked that way? The murderer repents and the judge releases him back into society! How would we know he repented? He would never murder again! The second death is mentioned in this verse! The first death is our physical death! If like the thief on the Cross accept Christ before our first death then we escape the second death or the eternal judgment of separation from God forever! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Divided We Stand?

I was listening to a lecture by Dinesh D’Souza at a major University here in America! The topic was the threat of Islam to Western Civilization. He covered the history of Islam and the differences between traditional Islam and Radical Islam! After all his analysis he concluded that the biggest threat to America is not external but internal! That is American’s are in disagreement about who we are and our purpose in life! Some believe we have a God given purpose guided by the scriptures of the Bible. Some believe there is no God and men chart their own destiny! Men evolved from nothing and our purpose is only found in ourselves instead of outside of ourselves! This is the battle line that our divisions here in America are based upon! The political parties formed reflect this cultural war! When we look at history all the way back to the beginning of Creation the war has always been between good and evil! Right and wrong! This war goes back even before Creation when Lucifer who became Satan was cast out of Heaven for his rebellion against God! This war continues with each new generation! One day it will be settled with the return of Jesus Christ to judge the living and the dead! Until then we have to make a decision for or against Christ! That decision is crucial to your future! To be popular and offend God is unwise! To please God will bring persecution from the world! However the joy of this personal relationship with Jesus Christ surpasses anything this world could ever offer you! Stay true to your faith and witness God delivering you out of all your troubles!

Who Are They? Revelation 2:6

Who are the Nicolaitians? The word in the Greek means the conqueror of the people! Specifically in the Church of God! They are only referred to twice in the Book of Revelation. Both the church at Ephesus and the Church at Pergamos had the same problem! (Verse 2:15). The Nicolaitians were Bishops and prelates of the church gaining a triumphal victory over the laity! This is the very sin that brought forth the Reformation! It is mostly responsible for all our denominational and non-denominational churches around the world! The Nicolaitians compelled and forced church members to submit to the arbitrary dominion of men who have become the ones which the eternal hates! The Apostle Peter warned us that those who are leaders among God’s people must not dominate the faith of others but rather exhort them to do right! (1 Peter 5:1-3). The Nicolaitians are people in the church who have established a hierarchy of power and dominion under a government of ecclesiastical rulers! Comment: Yes! God hates these folks! Correction is very different from condemnation! We take the word disciple from the word discipline. Jesus used the techniques of correction and commendation very effectively! We as parents either tend to over correct and under commend or over commend and under correct! Everything I do cannot be right and everything I do cannot be wrong! That is why I need a Savior! My experience in ministry over the past 45 years has shown me people do not like to submit to authority! This is the nature of Satan! Most people will submit to authority if commended and corrected in love! However some will never! Hell is reserved for these folks! Why will some never submit? Because they want to replace God! This explains why the world is a war! War on God! Jesus asked the churches at Ephesus and Pergamos to repent! Sunday our Pastor Oscar Cope made an important point to us in his sermon! He said that the beginning of repentance is the end of judgment! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Who Do You Trust? Psalm 86:11

Hebrew Translation: “Teach me by laying a foundation established and erect controlling me which leads me down the road of life. O Lord; I will walk faithfully and stable in thy truth; unite my heart in the totality of my inner nature to reverence and respect your name.” Comment: We like Jesus disciples have struggled with this scripture! Like Jesus disciples we sometimes do not walk stable following him! We waver in faith getting off the road that leads to life! The disciples would sometimes get off the foundation! Their heart was not always united with Christ! Reverence and respect for his name was not always there! Peter denied Jesus even though he told him he would die for him! He eventually did in Rome years later! Jesus told us to go out into all the world and preach the Gospel! We say let the church do it! Let an organization do it! Pay them so I do not have to do it! Our gift’s God has given us cannot be used unless we do what Jesus told us to do! At the feeding of the 5000 Jesus asked the disciples what do they have? The disciples wanted to send the crowd away! We do not have money to feed this large crowd? Cancel the meeting! Send them home! The disciples were perplexed? They can buy their own food! A little boy in the crowd came prepared! He had more than enough for himself! He had a little faith! Enough faith to give Jesus everything he had! The little boy gave his all! He had the gift of 5 loaves and 2 fish! Bring what you have to Jesus! God will multiply it! Let God bless what you have! Really what he has given you! Doesn’t seem like much but enough! He will multiply it to feed everyone! God is greater than what you have! Have you figured this out yet? Do something with what God has given you! With your life! Don’t waste it on drugs and go to work! With the left overs from a miracle you can feed even more people! Twelve baskets full! Israel had twelve tribes and Jesus had twelve disciples! God can build a nation out of left overs! God can build a church with left overs! God has more than enough for your family! He has more than enough for your church! God can bless you if you bring all you have to him! Peter build my church! Do you want to distribute God to the world? Or keep him for yourself? Sow the seed you have! Do not eat your seed! Share and multiply what you have! The rich young ruler was not able to do that? He valued his possessions more than God! I don’t need to tithe and make offerings? The possessions God had given to him he could not give back! If you give to God what you have he will do more with it than you ever could by yourself! The graveyard is full of excuses! Even David who wrote this Psalm waivered at times! Jesus never did! Wait on God but not on anything else! Do what God has called you to do! Help the needy and the lost! Go after those the world has rejected! Pray and agree with God! Jesus had every excuse to quit! The crown of thorns was very painful! The betrayal of his disciples was painful! His back cut open and bleeding was painful! His Cross was heavy! Your will be done! God’s will is not easy! Jesus had no excuses to die for you! Do you have any excuses not to live for him? He gave his all! Can you? Be faithful! Stand up for our flag and take a knee for Jesus in prayer! Pastor Don Wildes, Mount Vernon Baptist Church, Fairburn, Georgia
