Subject: What I Feel the Lord Told Me to Tell You

Hello America (church) “unrated version” How in the Hell Are You!? Yeah it’s me again. In Nov 2012 as I was immersed in my cesspool of “woe is me” and self indulgence-trying as hard as I could to keep myself “unspotted” from the Church. I was getting ready to start trapping. You know – catching animals in traps. My wife spoke to me. “I can’t support you in this, Lou”. “Huh? Why not”? “I just can’t”, she said.

I started to think about this. You’d think I’d be able to see a Holy Ghost ambush after all these years. I said to my wife, “If you don’t support me in this I might just as well shoot myself in the foot. It won’t work. We are supposed to be one.”

She finally said,” Ok, but I want you to ask the LORD what you can do to support me” (the ambush). I didn't say anything but figured - yeah that’s cool.

So I asked the Lord what I can do to support my wife. Immediately, the Lord said, “Quit smoking pot.” I said, “OK”. I still had a heavy ounce left; I finished this a couple of days later. Then I stopped. Seems like no matter where I’m hiding or what I’m doing the Lord’s got my number.

In January 2013 I started to do a Daniel fast (http://www.daniel-fast.com/index.php/about-the-fast) a church I used to attend was doing. I was excited for this body, thinking maybe this time they (we) would actually hear, accept and receive (walk in this Word of life, “Jesus”) they (we) professed to have. My main focus on this fast was to grow in the grace and knowledge of the Lord and to worship Jesus in Spirit and in Truth. A while into this fast the Holy Spirit said write. I asked, “Write what?” I had to ask! He said, “Write about who you are- who the church is”. I said, “I already have”. The Spirit said, “Tell them more - go deeper”.

I ended up doing a lot of praying, meditating and thinking about this. Then one evening the Lord said once again, “Write”, so I started putting this article together. I will have to go back to some of the last letter I wrote and released at Easter of 2011. Eighty to 90 percent of Americans claim Jesus as Lord in one way or the other. It doesn’t have to be my way or your way, we just have to do it (Rom 10:13) “For whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” That claim is what makes the church, America.

Specifically I’m to write who Jesus knows me as and how the Holy Spirit uses me and how we relate, we are one. (Eph 5:30) “For we are members of His Body of His flesh and of His bones, (v31) “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife and the two shall become one flesh”. (v32) “This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the Church.” The church, “people” are like man and wife, each totally different and with a unique personality but to love, overlook and work through their uniqueness in Christ’s love to become in one accord, one person, and one church. This is hard to do- but required by Christ. No exceptions.

Now if you ask me who I am. I’m a fat, longhaired, redneck, honky, white devil - a WASPP – white Anglo-Saxon protestant puke. But in reality, I’m the product of every person I’ve ever interacted with – parents, family, friends, etc. Once I accepted Christ, I became a product of the Churches I’ve attended – the people, the teachings I’ve received from the pulpit, the Word of God and the leading of the Holy Spirit in my life. When I (we) asked Christ into my life and to take control of it I received the Holy Spirit - subject to the person, He resides in. This makes us, “one”. Myself, I’m just a sinner saved by grace. Specifically, I’m called to preach, teach, and operate in the prophetic as led by the Holy Spirit. My call is to the Church in America.

Two years ago I told you there was going to be an earthquake on the east coast, one on the west coast and one in the middle of the country. Why? I will try to explain the best I can. I might confuse you so forgive me.

When I first started this walk with God about 1 to 2 years into it as I was reading the Old Testament I came across a passage. A gift and I remember saying, “Oh this is what I would have and then forgot about it”. Some years back I got hold of a book by John Eldredge, “Waking the Dead”. In this book he told of asking God how He knew me. This threw me, but I could not, not do this, so I asked. He answered me. He told me I was to Him like Elijah. He did not say I was Elijah, but like unto him. My heart dropped for I remembered what I had asked all those years ago and I told God but that’s not what I had asked for, but quickly recovered and said, “Sorry, like Elijah - good, its real good.” and thanked Him.

During this time God had been using me in defending our Pastor and other Christians in the local paper. Then the Lord started using me in defending the Word and explaining what was going on in the country and what was going to happen. These things have come to pass for the most part. There were others in this nation operating in the same capacity. I didn’t understand until a few years ago what we were doing. Hey, I’m a country bumpkin, a bit slow on the uptake. What we had been doing, led by the Holy Spirit’s leading had been to release these things upon a nation who no longer listened to the Lord. I will explain, please bare with me.

This is going to get a bit sticky. I haven’t been to church much of late. The reason is – about 8-9 years ago the Lord spoke to me and said, “Lou I don’t want you smoking pot”. I said, “Lord I ‘m not going to get high”. Within three months I was, don’t know why but I was. Guess God knows me better than I do. I am a weed addict. Weed is my drug of choice and I smoke a lot. The reason I tell you this, is you are to know who I am. Also some of my sweetest moments have come in my out to lunch periods -four in the last 14 years of my 30 years with the Lord- each time less than the previous.

I now know this is over in my life. But the Lord is faithful, in season or out to lunch. He has never left me or forsaken me. Always wooing, always honing me and when He calls me out I’m a bit sharper, a bit meaner than hell itself. He always puts me right back where I left off. He loves me and He loves you and when we have a particular call on our life, we will not escape Him. Once in my cesspool, I was pondering and thinking about the Lord and what He had shown me and taught me. He started to bring certain things to my mind. I broke – weeping. He showed me He had given me every spiritual gift I had asked for. Specifically the one like unto Elijah. I asked for that double portion Elisha had asked for. He had given it to me - heavy and humbling stuff. I’ve only told 2 or 3 people this until now.

God is gracious and merciful. It took a bit before I quit smoking pot, but I did. The Lord put it on my heart to fast and pray. So on a Friday night I planned to start. I ate something and told the Lord, “Sorry, I will start in the morning”. He came down hard – “No it starts now – tonight”. So I did a two and a half day full fast, not much happened, but I was obedient. I ended up back in Church ministering in whatever the Lord told me to do. I had told the Lord I wasn’t doing anything unless He told me too. It had to come from Him. God is faithful.

During this time I was ministering at an adult nursing home among other things. These people blessed me so much. Around this time I began to realize that things in the Body of Christ were not quite right. We seemed to have it together when gathered but it seemed to stay inside the church. I ended up so upset with the Body that I left and eventually started smoking pot again.

But God is faithful. This time when I came out of my cesspool I started to fast and pray and was having a great time in the Lord. I told the Lord, “I think I’ll go back to church this week. I miss the body so much – maybe cut my hair and rejoin the flock”. He said, “No, you won’t cut your hair – I didn’t call you to be like them. I called you to be you. You will not go back to Church; you are going to do what I tell you to do when I tell you to do it. You will say what I tell you to say when I tell you to say it. I believe every believer should be in the body somewhere”. I said, “OK”. He then started to train me.

I have to regress here to the time I left once again. As I was praying and worshipping the Lord one night, about a year before the election, when Obama became president, I had the news on and they were talking about the upcoming primaries. I asked the Lord who he wanted for President. Suddenly this face appeared before me – I said, “No”. I felt like throwing up – it was Hilary Clinton. I didn’t like this – but it was His choice not mine. I was also preaching occasionally in the body at this time. The Lord was using me in different areas.

I preached this one morning. Pray for her. Guess how this worked out? I didn’t understand this. I know when the Lord speaks to me. I know His voice. I lied – I’m a liar. This was His choice how could this not be? I had a lot to learn yet. Because of this and other things I left the church once again.

Where was I? Oh yeah, One time I was in financial difficulty – I needed a certain amount to be able to write a check. I had it. I counted it three times. When I went to deposit it, I counted it again, twenty dollars short – I recounted, still short, I was upset. I was fuming. I asked the Lord if it had been taken by a certain person. He said, "You know who took it". Damn right I did. I was going to kick butt. He said you know who took it. As I was seething over this, He said, “I took it”. “What”? I was hurt and angry with Him. I said, “You went back on me Lord”. The severest rebuke I have ever received, including up till now, came down. “LOU (you) how many times have I given you the money you needed and you spent it on other things and couldn’t pay for your needs or bills”? I was a quivering lump when He got done with me. I share this because when I receive something like this from the Lord I’m to share it with the Church; which is my specific call. Care to ask the Holy Ghost – why? This is the first time I have shared this.

Proverbs 16:26 says “The person, who labors, labors for himself. For his hungry mouth drives him on.” Church this isn’t just about food on the table. Do we hunger and thrust for righteousness? Or are you piling up debt trying to get a piece of the American pie - buying this thing or that thing? “Oh, gotta get me some of that.” The truth is we are willing to grease the pole of any thing that we think is going to fill the hole that only Jesus is meant to fill. We are harlots and adulterers (Luke 9:25) “For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and is himself destroyed or lost?”

At the time I wasn’t allowed to go to church, I asked the Lord what about my tithe? I believed in tithing. Jesus instituted it with Abraham. (Gen 14:18-20) I kept asking and one Sunday morning He said, “Cut me a check, anoint it and burn it as a sweet smelling sacrifice to me.” So I did. I wasn’t sure about this but I was obedient.

I did this for about a year and a half. Also during this time, one Sunday morning my wife had left for church. About 20 minutes later I was praying and the Lord said, “Get to church.” I didn’t have a ride so I said, “How?” He said, “Walk”. “What?” “Go!” “Lord I have to shower and change” I had been fasting and praying for two days. He said, “No”. “But Lord I stinketh.” “Go.” I stumbled around; confused I went down cellar to fix the fire so it would still be going when I got home. “Leave, now!” I left grapping my walking stick. It was about three minutes from when He told me till I left.

Church is 14 miles from my residence. It was February and it was cold and drizzling off and on. I had on two shirts, a vest and sweats. As I was walking, He started to tell me to spit or strike with my walking stick and I would. At times He told me to rest a couple of minutes then get on. Sometimes He would tell me to run. Ever see a 300 pound 50 some year old man run? The earth moves. He would have me run only a few yards – 25 – 50, then He would say, “Walk”. I asked, “Why am I doing this, Lord”. “You are going to talk to the Pastor and your brother.” As I was crossing the river on the bridge He would tell me to spit and strike. As I was about one step from the end of the bridge, He said, “Strike”. I felt the whole bridge start to vibrate under my feet. As I was walking, I started to think I was going to do a little spiritual mayhem – smash the marquee with the church name on it, and then write their name over the main door in blood. I was going to have my brother repierce my ear to the door casing. He had done this a couple of years earlier for me. (Exod 21:6) I had done this, declaring I was giving up my rights and was willing to become a slave for Jesus, His Word and the Church.

About two thirds of the way to the church He said, “Sit down and wait.” – so I did. I asked what I am waiting for. He said to me – “don’t get ahead of me.” By this time I knew church had to be over. I kept asking, “Are you sure they are there?” He kept saying – “Yes”. I got just below the Church at about 2:30 pm or so and I saw my brother about to leave and the Pastor was going inside. I yelled and waved my stick, my brother left, he hadn’t seen me. I was confused, but walked to the Church and leaned against the door. I told the Lord I didn’t get there in time.

He said, “When I tell you to leave drop everything. Don’t wait - leave. When I tell you to go spit or strike, it will have eternal consequences”. As I leaned there, I said I can’t write the church name in blood. He said, “Use spit”. “It doesn’t really matter what name is on the marquee, I only have a few people in there anyway”. So I spit and wrote their name over the door. The Lord told me to go to the altar. I said, “I can’t walk”. I was in pain, my hips and legs didn’t seem to work. He said, “Crawl”. So I did, up the stairs and around the pews to the altar, hoping pastor would not come down stairs and say, “What’s that jerk doing?”

I lay there for awhile praying and the Lord said, “Get up”. I did. I could walk again - still sore but able to walk. I asked the Lord, “How I was getting home?” He said, “Call your brother.” So I had to go upstairs and ask pastor if I could use the phone. He asked me why I was there and I told him. He got excited and told me the sermon had been about being sensitive to the Spirit and to step out and do what the Spirit told you to do. This was not a coincidence. He told me he would take me home and I said the Lord told me my brother was to do that. My brother came and picked me up, he wasn’t happy but obedient to the Spirit. Going home I was telling him why I came to the church. He said that was the whole problem, I shouldn’t have asked, don’t ask. I was dumbfounded, but we’re supposed to ask. He said don’t ask, you shouldn’t have asked. I knew he was joking but I couldn’t shake this.

For the next couple of days I thought this over and finally said to the Lord, “But we are supposed to ask?” Suddenly Mrs. Clinton’s face appeared before me again. I said, “Oh, is this what happened?” He said, “The church doesn’t ask me, Lou, they don’t listen and they don’t hear me. I learned a lot from my walk with the Lord that day and got an answer why Hillary wasn’t elected. Now I confess, I misinterpreted what the Lord has shown me about Mrs. Clinton. He showed me His choice, not that she was going to be president. I was finally beginning to understand what was wrong with us - the church. I believe in being a part of the body.

So I asked the Lord if I could go to church again. He released me and I started going to the church I’ve always attended. For some reason I just didn’t fit in. The people were still loving and the praise and worship was excellent. I just couldn’t seem to fit in. I didn’t know why. Finally, I left again but did not smoke pot. I started having church by visiting a couple of different people who were unable to get around because of health reasons. I just started spending time with them. I would drive around and when I saw a church I would ask the Lord, “How about this church? Should I go here?” He said, “They are no different Lou, they do not hear me either”.

Finally one day as I was praying the Lord said, “Write.” “Write about what Lord?” The Spirit started revealing part of the problem to me. I already know some of it. Tell them who you “we” are. I released what I wrote on Easter 2011.

I preached it in a small church and had it released on the internet. I still was not part of a body, but would still try to do what the Lord wanted me to do. I spent a lot of time in prayer. In October of 2011 I ended up smoking again. I would still spend time with the Lord, still having church but that was about it. The reasons I tell you about my times in my cesspool are, the Lord will use whoever is willing to be used. He is sovereign. He sits in the Heavens and does whatever He pleases. And I am supposed to tell you what a jerk I can be.

OK, let’s get to it. The reason the Lord is going to send three earthquakes. We will not listen to Him. I am going to give you my ABCs actually CBA – Catholic, Baptist and Assemblies of God. Remember we are one and this includes all churches in this nation. Please feel free to love me – I do love you.

Catholic Church – the One True Church – this claim alone says you are it to the exclusion of all others. You are saved and no one else is and that is what is taught as gospel. You alone are the way, the truth and the life. You are NOT Jesus is – John 14:6.

Baptist Church – Same thing, they believe they are the only ones truly saved and exclude anyone not of their faith. This is taught and believed by their congregations. Again they are saying they are the way, the truth and the life – THEY ARE NOT – JESUS IS! (John14:6)

Before we get to A, I’m going to share some things. The first pastor I was brought up under was brought up Catholic then got saved and ended up a Baptist minister. He ended up getting the left foot of fellowship from the Baptist Church for receiving a baptism of the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. Are you feeling the love for one another? Just warms the cockles of that place our hearts are supposed to be. He ended up a pastor in the Assemblies of God .

Another example, a couple who went to the Catholic Church were active, involved and loved the Lord and the Church. Crap happened. They ended up divorced and messed up by two churches. Wife’s parents were Baptist, they used to leave when the husband came home. As always the children paid the most. One son was studying to become an altar boy and wasn’t allowed to do that anymore. The wife was brought back into the flock, now she’s saved. Imagine the message the children got from this concerning the love of Jesus. This is only a part of what the family went through, the part that I know of . One more, one night in church we were having a guest speaker and when it was over there was a man standing next to me so we started talking. I asked how he was doing, and he shared he was having some problem with his eyes, afraid he might lose sight in one of them. So I asked if I could pray for him - so I did. Suddenly I started praying in tongues. Something I don’t usually do where people can hear me. A few days later my pastor told me this man told him the Lord had healed his eye. He was a Baptist minister. He told our pastor that all his life he had been taught that tongues were demonic. He had been taught that only a Baptist could be saved. The Lord had opened this man’s eyes literally. God is faithful and is a respecter of no person or denomination.

Assembly of God – a Spirit filled, Spirit led church - maybe? Again, when a Church makes a claim like this it’s saying they are it. They are the Spirit and mind of God. They are the way, the truth, and the life. No. Jesus is. They can point to the way, the truth, and the life and that’s it.

I have heard from the pulpit that Catholics put down Baptists and a few other denominations besides. We have it you don’t. Remember, all who call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. But the same judgments the churches and their people make comes upon themselves. I have known people cast aside, betrayed, and abandoned. Yes, this is love or is it warm fuzzes??

Good praise. For you know God inhabits the praises of its people. I have seen pastors come against by some whom the Lord is using in the congregation. Even board members sometimes are not right with the pastor. I stood against this once. I felt betrayed by these people. Almost got sucked into it with another group until my wife touched my arm and shook her head. She has discernment. I have found myself guilty of this in other ways. Forgetting what Jesus told Peter, “What is that to you” (meaning shut your mouth and mind your own business) “You follow me.”

Church - we are to come along side of not against one another. One of the people I do church with and visit was at one time an active member in our church. They plowed the parking lots for free; they were a board member and loved Jesus. Crap happened. I don’t really know all the details but he ended up leaving the body. A bit later, a couple of year’s maybe or more, he had two strokes and a heart attack within a couple of days of each other. He was a mess. In time he got a bit better. It’s been four years since this happened, but in all this time, except for his children visiting him after it happened, this church, where he attended and was active in never reached out to him. Not one person has come to see him, not his friends, not those he did business with, no one from the body who claims to have the Spirit filled mind of God. Bullshit!

What spirit is leading them? It is not the Holy Spirit and that is a fact. Where did I read, “Visit the sick… hummm? I know the Bible. Church these things are epidemic throughout the body in this nation. How do I know? I ask. I know this is not true for all people in the body; as my old daddy used to say, “Lou, you’re going to hang with whoever you hang out with”.

Church, I know we have all kinds of good works, missionaries, people getting saved, and all kinds of good programs out there. But if God says something to us, we don’t ask Him and don’t hear Him or listen to Him or His word. My question is why? The only thing we can reproduce is ourselves, therefore we make them worse off than they were before bringing them into the fold - even our children.

We are a church of the Pharisees and that is so Sadd-u-cee. (Matthew 23:25). “Woe to you Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead man’s bones and all uncleanliness.” Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.

Church where were we when Roe versus Wade became law of the land?This was one of the most demonic inspired laws to ever hit the books. We were asleep, this was by far the church’s greatest test. Oh, I don’t believe in abortion. I don’t support this. We march on Washington and protest outside clinics. We vote for pro life candidates, blah, blah… Remember 80% to 90% of Americans have claimed that name above all - Jesus. We pay our taxes and we have supported the murder of tens of millions of infants so far. Don’t support it? We are the support.

We are hypocrites. We best shut our mouth and put up or shut up. We are liars and that makes us a lie. Don’t want to support it? Get every church body in this country, to say, “no we are going to take this off the books”. Humble yourselves, do whatever it takes, pray nonstop, shut this country and the government down. Within one to three months this law would be off the books because there would be no more money coming in to support it. Come on church - got the spiritual guts? We support abortion!

Church I love you. Do you love me? I’m going to relate a couple of more things about myself. A few years ago as I was reading the Word I came across a verse in Romans 12:19, “Vengeance is mine I will repay says the Lord.” All of a sudden I heard these words come out of my mouth. “Use me Lord - use me.” I could not believe I said this. I’m a jerk. You don’t ask for something like this. I told someone about this and made a joke about it. Use me with a maniacal laugh. I did this a few times. One day as I was thinking about this I grinned to myself (easily amused).

All of a sudden the Lord rebuked me. “You think you’re smart. You’re going to rule the day you ever made that statement.” I said, “I’m a jerk, OK”. The Holy Spirit had put these words in my mouth. I didn’t think it than, I do now. He had always planned to use me in this fashion, but it had to be spoken into existence. “What I bind on earth is bound in heaven. When I lose on earth is loosed in heaven.” Matthew 16:19 This verse is for all believers not just Peter.

I’m going to share something that was in the last letter. I was praying one night while I attended Youth Challenge Bible Institute. I started to say over and over, “I love you Lord, I love you Lord”. All of a sudden the Lord spoke to me, “I know you do, Lou.” and these waves of love started to roll over me - so intense. I ran, “No Lord I can’t take this.” I thought I was going to vaporize. His love is what he has for each and every person.

Back to this letter. As I was fasting and praying about these things and talking to the Lord about them I started arguing with Him. “I want people to like me - selfish huh? Lord I’m not going to do this, I am not going to tell them. I won’t release these things upon this nation. I won’t.” He said, “You already have released these earthquakes when you prayed it and preached it on Easter Sunday 2011. You asked to be used”. I said, “I hate you Lord, I hate you.” He laughed and said, “I have known you and loved you since before the foundation of the earth, Lou.”

What was I going to say? Elijah popped into my mind. The Lord had 7000 who had not kneeled to Baal. The Lord said, “No, Lou, this one is your call, yours alone”. I rued the day. I sat down and said, “No, Lord, please no.” Suddenly the Catholic couple I told you about and the man no one comes to visit came into my mind. I felt such a sorrow settle into my spirit. I started to weep. Immediately, I was in the spirit and had a vision. I started to see all these people stretching out before me as far as I could see. They were crying out in fear, pain and sorrow. They were terrified. There was one church steeple standing in the middle of the sea of heartbroken and terrified people. But I started to feel their pain and sorrow. All of a sudden I once again started to feel those waves of love this time billowing over and through me. My arms started to rise but they were attached under and to the arms of Jesus. As our arms continued to rise, and that love continued to flow, heartbroken sopping tears came down my face. I heard my voice speaking – please give me your pain and your sorrow, I would take it from you if I could.

I would go to the cross for you if I could. I was also hearing these words in my spirit, “He who dwells in the secret place of the most high, shall abide under the shadow of the almighty. I will say of the Lord He is my refuge and my fortress. My God in Him will I trust” (Psalm 91). As these words ended and the vision faded, Jesus spoke and said, “Now can you tell them Lou?” I said, “Yes now I can tell them”.

“Church” beloved, Jesus loves you. Yes he does and because of the love that flowed from Him to, through and over me, I have finally become able to love you the way I should. Now I am going to explain a few more things.

Do what the Lord says through His Word and is leading, that’s all, just do it. When we don’t we grieve the Holy Spirit. When we say we are Catholic, Baptist or Assemblies of God or any other body of believers and don’t allow that same grace and mercy we claim to have, we grieve the Holy Spirit. When we cast off people by not visiting them, not meeting other’s needs or stepping out and coming alongside of them saying, “We’ll pray for you.”, what we’ve done is give them the finger –we grieve the Holy Spirit. If we talk about others or come against pastors and try to fix them without them being present, we are gossips and slanderers, we grieve that the Holy Spirit. If we don’t do as the Bible tells us to do, feed the poor, visit those in prison, take care of windows and orphans. or go out and spread the gospel in the word in word and deed, we grieve the Holy Spirit.

The next one will stop any church or person from realizing their full potential in Christ. 1st Corinthians 13:5 “Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith.” But, alcoholic anonymous puts it this way. Take a ruthless moral inventory of yourself - examine yourself. Do you have bitterness, unforgiveness, anger and resentment etc., toward any in the body? Have you slandered or gossiped? James 5:16 “Confess your trespasses to one another and pray for one another that you may be healed.” This promotes healing, heals hurt feelings, etc., also physical healing. We are to personally go to those who have injured us in word or deed - offer forgiveness and come along side of them. If we injured anyone, we are to confess it to them and ask forgiveness again coming alongside of them.

If we don’t do these things we will only be able to grow to a certain point in the Lord. Doing these things is crucial to our salvation. Refusal to do this grieves the Holy Spirit. The only thing others should be able to say is, “Look how they love one another”. If we don’t, we are being selfish which is the direct opposite of love. John 3:23 “As this is His commandment believe on the name of His son Jesus Christ and love one another.” 1 Peter 4:8 Above all things have fervent love for one another. For love will cover a multitude of sins.” Love costs church! But we have to do it. Anything less grieves the Holy Spirit. We need to repent, turn away and love.

I have a few things to take care of in the body he has recently called me back to. I would rather shoot myself in the foot than go there. I felt betrayed by this body, so I betrayed them. I have amends to make for I will not allow anything to impede my walk with Christ no matter the cost. The thing is I can’t be who I am called to be without you church - Nor can you be who you are called to be without me. Yes, I know this sucks, but Jesus excepts nothing less from us, otherwise, we grieve the Holy Spirit

Church, there is only one way to grieve the Holy Spirit, and that is to blaspheme or deny the work of the Holy Spirit. Whether this happens in other churches, in other believers or in ourselves this hardens the heart. Jesus, says for the blasphemer of the Holy Spirit there is no remission or forgiveness of sin, for it is denying Him as Lord and savior, not only with our words but our deeds. He is Lord of all or not Lord at all. By the grieving of the Holy Spirit we have become a lie - we are liars and hypocrites. (John 8:44) Jesus said we are like our father the devil - the father of all lies. For these reasons and many more Jesus will no longer be content with a church that constantly refuses to hear him. Love one another. Now church, I do love you, that is why I am willing to put it all on the line and hang my blessed assurance out for all to kick. I want you to like me but what Jesus wants comes before all else. I’m going to be true to Christ who called me no matter the cost.

The reasons I’ve given are why three earth quakes are coming upon this land. The first earthquake will be on April 13th of this year, the second one month later and the third one month later. This is not going to be pretty. But the worker is worthy of his hire.

Now if these earth quakes don’t happen, I’ve still been true to the call He placed on my life. He is God - I am not. He sits in the heavens and does whatever He pleases. If He chooses to allow me to be an object of ridicule and scorn or mockery that is His choice. I am not going to back down He is the lover of my soul.

Whether these quakes happen or not I will rue the day. Now, who am I really. The same person I have been since I started this journey with the Lord. I’m a sinner saved by grace, nothing less than nothing more. If you believe your Jesus wouldn’t send these quakes, try this one, “I said so.”

Beloved please repeat this verse with your name in place of mine. (Luke 6:46) “Lou, why do you call me Lord, Lord and not do the things which I ask.”

In Christ,

Lou Houghtaling
