Therefore God Also Gave Them Up…

Voice of the Kingfisher speaks out …from a different perspective

On Dominion Day, in Canada, it is with a heavy heart I bring a birthday message befitting the first birthday ever recorded in the history of the world. It was the creation of the first man and the first woman, and how their sin caused God to give them up and give them over from a culture of life to a culture of death. They exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. They brought upon themselves the curse of death, which accompanies sin.

Life was given to them by the breath of God, the breath of the Spirit in the pile of dust called man to make out of the dust a living being. There were no spiritual waters of this world in him, for dust is without water. That is why God separated the waters on the face of the deep, which was in darkness, from the dry land, and the water from above separated from the water beneath. God wanted a son and daughter for Himself born of the water and the Spirit from above only.

He is a holy God who created nothing but holiness around Him. Being fully in charge of creation, it was His choice to give man free will to choose his own destiny, releasing the waters accordingly as befits the will of man. In his freedom, man could choose between the spiritual waters of life and the spiritual waters of death.

The man and the woman were first baptized at creation by the waters of life from above, only to exchange them by choosing the religious, spiritual waters of death, beneath, offered to them by the serpent, that devil of old, whose aim it was to separate them from God. This was the birthday of liberalism, wrapped up in religion and tied together with ribbons and bows of lies. Man did not hesitate to believe the lies of the devil when he would not embrace the truth of the God of truth.

At this moment in time, he sentenced himself to sure death, in order to gratify his senses in the flesh. The fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil appealed to the taste buds, looked good to the eye and sounded good to the ear, but it was all deadly lies, with the bite of a poisonous viper. The liberals have continued through the centuries to be Satan’s agents of the lie to deceive mankind in the same manner as the serpent first deceived Adam and Eve.

The coming election in the United States of America is like the Garden, in replay. One candidate for the presidency is basing her entire campaign on a history of lies and deceit; the other is following more closely God’s plan for separation of His nation from the controls of the world around her.

Man lost the eternal life, which was breathed into him, forever, when he exchanged the Spirit of life for the spirit of the waters of death. But God decided to take the judgment upon Himself for His creation. In His grace and mercy, He would establish His kingdom on earth, once more, through a covenant marriage agreement with a man called Abraham.

In Him, all the families of all the nations of the world could receive God’s blessing, depending on what they would do with His Son, Jesus. It would be possible for His people to be born again of the Spirit of life and receive the baptism of the water from above, which was lost in the Garden.

Mankind would have the opportunity to live eternally with the Father through the death and resurrection of His Son. It meant that man could be born again of the Spirit of life, the most valuable gift any man could ever receive.

By the process of the marriage of His Son to the church, God became the Father-in-law of the bride of mankind. In Jethro’s position as father-in-law of Moses, Jethro was responsible for introducing to the nation Israel, the plan for Israel’s first judicial system, which to this day has been used in America. As father of Moses’ wife, he spoke prophetically as though his voice were the voice of God, the voice of the bride’s Father-in-law. The two fathers became as one by means of the spiritual union of the divine Son with man, to bring forth adopted sons and daughters for God.

You could say the two sticks of Israel came together into one stick, one representing the nation Israel, and the other, the throne of Judah, through David (see Ezekiel 37:19), and ultimately through Jesus and the true church, His bride. This blessing was a crossover blessing by Jacob, placed upon the second son of Joseph, Ephraim, with history revealing the way of Jesus and His church to be the crossover pattern for the true Jew, within the spiritual house of Israel, rather than being limited to the bloodline of a nation. God’s salvation is for all people from all nations, according to their choice.

Man journeyed from the Garden eastward, into the valley of death. God raised up Abraham to take his heirs out of the East and back westward into the Promised Land of Israel. And so the Way back to the kingdom began. From there, He took His church out of the nations and westward to the shores of America, the home of the blessing upon the families of God’s covenant for the nations with Abraham.

This brought many true believers westward from out of all nations into one land, again ruled by God, apart from the empires of Satan and his religious crew in the East, living in lands ruled by religions based on the lies of cultures of death. Hence we have the concept of the East versus the West, wrong versus right, the Left versus the Right and liberalism versus truth.

At a time, shortly following her inception, America represented life, liberty and prosperity in a land where the people have chosen God and His Son of truth to rule over them as a nation with borders of protection from the cults of the East. She rejected those who would not pledge allegiance to God and this country under His rule. But prosperity played into the hands of Satan, with man’s usual weakness of the flesh in face of the lures the devil constantly puts before man.

Soon America took off her armor of protection, girded in truth, only to discover her people were beginning to believe the lie. Before long, she went the same route as her older sister Israel went before her, by allowing evil to cross her borders and set up religious camps within her midst. The Charter of Rights, in particular, opened up a hornet’s nest in Canada.

What is going to happen to America? Let us pray it is not ‘lying Hillary’, but rather Donald Trump whom God has chosen as His agent for this time. Should he be elected, let us pray that he will be surrounded by men who will serve him as Jethro served Moses, by putting men of God in place as judges. Then he can get on with his job of closing the borders to any, and all, who will not accept the Lord God as Ruler over them and this land. To accept anyone who refuses to do this is to offer an open invitation to religious traitors to enter into our midst.

The apostle, Paul, in addressing the Romans also addressed the future apostolic church reviving from her sleep during the church age within the Babylonian system of the Roman Empire, kept alive within the religion of Christianity. Rome took the apostolic church captive to a system of Romanism just as Egypt took the people of Israel captive within the Egyptian Empire. This captivity of the church resulted in a period of dark ages until she began to wake up to the truth when Martin Luther protested against the controls of Rome.

As the church began to awaken, but never quite made a full exodus from religion, the giant of Rome also began to awaken with its aim to suppress the truth, once and for all. Satan, as the Antichrist, will gather together all the religions of the world and all the governments of the world for his last stand to re-establish Babel in a One World Order of religion, government and economics (666 – the number of the beast and the number of man).

This will take place just before Christ returns to set up His New World Order, which will be as it was in the Garden before sin entered into it. It was the perfect world order in which all things were created good, and nothing we could do could ever make them any better. But Satan caused us to believe he could.

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man – and birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things. Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness, full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them (Romans 1:18-32).

It would appear that Paul, the apostle, was given a vision into the future to catch a glimpse of America today. Everything mentioned here is at the heart of what is causing governments to rise and fall, when the love of evil out-weighs man’s desire for that which is good.

The powers to be are putting young children on television to promote the creature worship after having programmed them to do so. It is time to consider the full message of Jethro who said the children must be taught the statutes and Word of God, which only Moses could give at that time. Either our two nations of America return the Bible to the classrooms of the nation, or they will be lost among all the other nations of the world as they are given over to spiritual uncleanness, with a generation rising up, which has never heard the truth of the Word of God.

Don’t ask why bad things happen to good people; there are none good! We have come to depend on our own understanding and not on God. It is called the secular mind versus the spiritual mind. Abraham was justified by faith and obedience to God. If you don’t hear God’s Word, how can you be either faithful or obedient to Him? The whole teaching system has to be turned around. Political Correctness has endorsed the rights of religion. It is all a lie. The truth of Jesus reigns, and He is the Word made flesh, not the religion, the way and the life, but rather the truth, the way and the life.

He sums up His position in this world in two sentences: “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me (John 14:6).”

Why, in the world, would we give rights to any religion, which has no rights given from God? Jesus never said of any religion, even one called Christianity, that the gates of hell would not prevail against it; He said this only of His apostolic church. Only a revived, apostolic church, which has made its exodus from the religious system of Christianity, will prevail against the coming One World Order, by coming out of her, Babylon the Great, mother of all harlots, and the gateway to hell.

“Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues (Revelation 18:4).”

To obey this command will be to make the final exodus of the ‘house of Israel’ from the last empire of the world, the presently forming Revived Roman Empire, which will go down, while at the same time, the church of witnesses to the truth goes up.

Victory will come when the struggle of Jacob with the angel all through the nighttime, is over. History has revealed the struggle of God with Jacob was all about bringing His people back into relationship with Him in a land made ready for them as a Garden restored. America is not the final land of exceptionalism; it is merely a hint of what is to come in a kingdom and a New World, ordered by God and never to be ruled by Satan again.

What a very long night it has been! For Jacob it was only the beginning of thousands of years of struggle lying before God’s people of the house of Israel until this time of the final hours of history in which we find ourselves on July 1st and July 4th, 2016, the birthdays of our two nations. Their future hangs in the balance, with all depending on whether or not we make the right choice, for good or for evil; the hour of decision is now.

And Elijah came to all the people, and said, “How long will you falter between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow Him; but if Baal, then follow him.” But the people answered him not a word (1 Kings 18:21).
