JESUS SAYS, "I CHOSE YOU SO THAT YOU MIGHT BEAR **FRUIT**, **FRUIT THAT WILL LAST**!"
"John 15:1-5,16: Jesus says, "I am the true vine, and My Father is the gardener, He cuts off every branch in Me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear **FRUIT** He prunes so that it will be even more **FRUITFUL**. You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. Remain in Me as I also remain in you. No branch can bear **FRUIT** by itself; it must remain in the vine, Neither can you bear **FRUIT** unless you remain in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches. If you remain in Me and I in you, you will bear **MUCH FRUIT**; apart from Me you can do nothing... You did not choose Me but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear **FRUIT**--**FRUIT** that will last!!!"
Ephesians 2:8,9: For it is by **GRACE** you have been saved, through **FAITH**�and this **NOT FROM YOURSELVES**, it is the **GIFT OF GOD**�not by works. So that no one can boast. For we are **GOD'S WORKMANSHIP**, created in Christ Jesus to do **GOOD WORKS**, which God prepared in advance for us to do!
Matthew 21:43: Jesus says to Israel, "The Kingdom of God will be taken from you and given to a people who will produce **FRUIT**!"
Romans 7:4-6: So my brothers and sisters, you who died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, in order that you might **BEAR FRUIT** for God. For when we were in the realm of the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in us, so that we might bear fruit for death. But now, by dying to what bound us, we have been **RELEASED FROM THE LAW** so that we may serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.
Luke 6:43-45: Jesus says, No good tree bears bad **FRUIT**, nor does a bad tree bear **GOOD FRUIT**. Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart. ... For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of!"
Colossians 1:9,10: We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of His will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, so that you may please Him in every good work, **BEARING FRUIT** in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God!
Matthew 13:23: Jesus says, "But the one who received the seed that fell on good soil is the man who hears the **WORD AND UNDERSTANDS IT**. He produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown."
Luke 8:15: Jesus says, "But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the **WORD**, retain it, and by perseverance produce a crop."
Philippians 1:9-11: And this is my prayer: that your love my abound **MORE AND MORE** in knowledge and depth and insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, filled with the **FRUIT** of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ--to the glory and praise of God!!
Philippians 1:22,23: For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. If I am to go living in the body this will mean **FRUITFUL LABOR** for me!
Galatians 5:22,23: The **FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT** is love, joy, peace, forgiveness, kindness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control!
2 Peter 1:3-11: His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and goodness. Through these He has given us very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption of the world caused by evil desires. For this reason, make every effort to add to your faith {A Free Gift} goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, **LOVE**. For if you possess these qualities in **INCREASING MEASURE**, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But whoever does not have them is nearsightecd and blind, forgetting that they have been forgiven of their past sins... Therefore, my brothers make **EVERY EFFORT** to confirm your calling and election. For if you do these things, you will never fail, and you will receive a **RICH WELCOME**into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
I Corinthians 9:24-27: Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes in to strict training. They do it to get a **CROWN** that will not last; but we do it to get a **CROWN THAT WILL LAST FOREVER**! Therefore, I do not run like a man running aimlessly. I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize!
I Thessalonians 4:1: We instructed you how to live in order to please God, as in fact you are living. Now we urge you in the Lord Jesus to do this **MORE AND MORE**!!
2 Thessalonians 1:3: We ought always to thank God for you, brothers and sisters, and rightly so, because your faith is growing **MORE AND MORE**!
Ephesians 3:7,11-16: To each one of us grace has been given as Christ appotioned it... So Christ Himself gives some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists and some to be pastors and teachers; to equip His people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Then we will no longer be infants tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming. Instead speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of Him who is the **HEAD**, that is, Christ. From Him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work!!!
Romans 12:3-8: Do not think of yourselves more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourselves with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each one of you. For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; If it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully!!
Corinthians 3:7-9: So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who watered have one purpose, and each will be **REWARDED** according to his own labor. For we are God's fellow workers, you are God's field, God's building!
Ephesians 6:8: Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men, because you know that the Lord will **REWARD** everyone for what ever good he does!
Revelation 22:12 Jesus says, �Behold I am coming soon! My **REWARD** is with Me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done!�
Daniel 12:3: Those who are impart wisdom {NIV} will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever!!

Revelation 19:9,10: The angel said to me, "Write this: **BLESSED** are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the **LAMB**!" And he added, "These are the true words of God!" At this I fell at his feet to **WORSHIP** him, But he said to me, "Don't do that! I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers and sisters who hold to the testimony of Jesus! **WORSHIP GOD**! For it is the spirit of prophecy who bears testimony to Jesus!"
Revelation 22:8,9: I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had been showing them to me. But he said to me, "**DON'T DO THAT** A am a fellow servant with you and with your fellow prophets and with all who **KEEP THE WORDS** of this scroll. **WORSHIP GOD**!!
Hebrews 1:6,8: When God brings His firstborn into the world He says, "Let all God's angels **WORSHIP HIM**.... About the Son He says, "Your throne, **O GOD**, will last for ever and ever, a scepter of justice will be the scepter of **YOUR KINGDOM**!"

There are some who completely ignore these Scriptures and claim that Jesus is not God because he said that the Father is greater than me in John 14:28 and that the Father told Him what to say as per John 14:23,24: Jesus says, "Anyone who loves Me will obey My teaching. My Father will love them, and We will come to them and make our home with them. Anyone who does not love Me will not obey My teaching.

Revelation 17:14; They will wage war against the **LAMB**, but the **LAMB** will overcome them because He is **LORD** of lords and King of kings--and with Him will be His **CALLED**, *CHOSEN** and **FAITHFUL** followers!!

Now Hark has stated dozens of times that every word in the OT is the infallible Word of God??? Such as:
Leviticus 5:5-10; 16-19: When anyone becomes aware that they are guilty of any of these matters, they must confess in what way they have sinned. As a penalty for the sin they have committed, they **MUST** bring to the Lord a female lamb or goat from the flock as a **SIN OFFERING**; and the priest shall **MAKE ATONEMENT for them for their sin. Anyone who cannot afford a lamb is to bring 2 doves or 2 pigeons to the Lord as a penalty for their sin. They are to bring them to the priest, who shall first offer the one for the sin offering... The priest shall then offer the other as a burnt offering in the prescribed way and **MAKE ATONEMENT** for the sin they have committed, and they will be **FORGIVEN**.
Leviticus 17:11: The Lord said, "For the life of the creature is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make **ATONEMENT FOR YOURSELVES** on the altar; it is the **BLOOD THAT MAKES ATONEMENT FOR ONE'S LIFE**!!"
AND SO GOD HAS COMMANDED IN THE OT COVENANT THAT THERE MUST BE **BLOOD SACRIFICES** TO ATONE FOR YOUR SINS!! AND AFTER THE LAST TEMPLE WAS COMPLTELY DESTROYED IN AD 70 THERE HAVE BEEN NO BLOOD SACRIFICES TO ATONE FOR SIN SINCE AD 70!!!
Isaiah 1:11,13,14: "The multitude of your sacrifices--what are they to Me?" says the Lord. "I have more than enough of burnt offerings, of rams and the fat of fattened animals; **I HAVE NO PLEASURE IN THE BLOOD OF BULLS AND LAMBS AND GOATS**... **STOP** bringing meaningless offerings! Your incense is detestable to Me. New moons, Sabbaths and convocations--I cannot bear your worthless assemblies. Your New Moon feasts and your appointed festivals **I HATE WITH ALL MY BEING!!"
Hark claims that we must keep all of the OT laws????
Jeremiah 31:31,32,34: "The days are coming says the Lord," declares the Lord, "When I will make a **NEW COVENANT** with the people of Israel. It will **NOT BE LIKE** the Covenant I made with their ancestors...For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more!!"
Isaiah 1:18: "Come now let us settle the matter," says the Lord. "Though your sins are like scarlet, the shall be as **WHITE AS SNOW**!"
I Peter 2:24,25: He Himself **BORE OUR SINS** in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness, **BY HIS WOUNDS WE ARE HEALED** {See Isaiah 53:5,6 below}!! For you were **LIKE SHEEP GOING ASTRAY**, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls!!
HERE PETER ABSOLUTELY CONFIRMS THAT THE PROPHESY IN ISAIAH 53:5,6 BELOW IS ABOUT THE ATONING SACRIFICE IF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST!!
Isaiah 53:5,6: But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and **BY HIS WOUNDS WE ARE HEALED**! We all, **LIKE SHEEP, HAVE GONE ASTRAY**, each of us has turned to his own way, and **THE LORD HAS LAID ON HIM THE INIQUITY OF US ALL**!!
Hark claims that there are no OT Scriptures that show that the coming Messiah and Savior from sin is God???
Isaiah 9:8,9: For unto us a Child is born, to us a Son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor and **MIGHTY GOD**!!
Isaiah 7:14: The Lord Himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a Son, and will call Him **IMMANUEL**! {Which means **GOD WITH US**!!}
Matthew 1:21-23: The angel of the Lord said, "She will give birth to a Son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus {Yeshua}, because He will save His people from their sins." All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: {Isaiah 7:14} "The virgin will conceive and give birth to a Son, and they will call Him **IMMANUEL** which means **GOD WITH US**!!
Jesus says, "I chose you to bear **FRUIT**, **FRUIT** that will last!"

Hark claims that there is no OT Scripture which even implies Jesus is God???
The word **ELOHIM** is the **PLURAL** of **EL** and is the first name for God given for God in the OT and is used over 3,000 times in the OT: "In the beginning God {**ELOHIM**} created the heavens and the earth!" {Genesis 1:1}
Genesis 1:26: God {**ELOHIM**} said, "Let **US** {PLURAL} make mankind in **OUR** {PLURAL} image, in **OUR** {PLURAL} likeness!!"
John 1:1-3: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the **WORD WAS GOD**. He was with God in the beginning. Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing was made that has been made!!
Colossians 1:15-20: The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible. All things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. And He is the Head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, so that in everything He might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have **ALL HIS** fullness dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through His blood, shed on the cross!!
Hebrews 1:1-4,6: In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days He has spoken to us through His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, and through whom He made the universe The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of His being sustaining all things by His powerful Word. After he had provided purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. So He became as much superior to the angels as the Name He has inherited is superior to theirs... God says, "Let all God's angels **WORSHIP HIM**!!" {Quote in Psalm 97:7!}
John 20:27-29: Then He said to Thomas, "Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe!" Thomas said to him, "My Lord and **MY GOD**!" Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen Me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed!"
Isaiah 9:6: For unto us a Child is born, to us a Son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor and **MIGHTY GOD**!
Isaiah 7:14: "The Lord Himself will give you a sign. The virgin will conceive and give birth to a Son and will call Him **IMMANUEL**!" {which means **GOD WITH US**}
Matthew 1:21-23: The angel of the Lord said, She will give birth to a Son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus, because He will save His people from their sins." All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet {Isa 7:14 above} "The virgin will conceive and give birth to a Son, and they will call Him **IMMANUEL** which means **GOD WITH US**!"

Now there are some Satanist's who believe that Popes elected by the Roman Catholic Church are somehow descendants of Peter and are the **HEADS** of God's church **ON EARTH** in the **PRESENT AGE** until the second coming of Jesus???
**BUT WHAT DOES GOD'S WORD SAY**??
Ephesians 1:20-23: He raised Christ from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the **PRESENT AGE** but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under His feet and appointed Him to be the **HEAD OVER EVERYTHING FOR THE CHURCH** which is **HIS BODY, the fullness of Him who fills everything in every way!!
Ephesians 4:7,11-13,15,16: To each one of us grace has been give has Christ apportioned it... Christ Himself {Not the Churches!} gives some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists and some to be pastors and teachers, to equip God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ... Speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of Him who is the **HEAD**, that is, **CHRIST**! **FROM HIM** the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament {Appointed by Christ}, grows and builds itself as each part does its work!!
Ephesians 5:23,24: The husband is the head of the wife as **CHRIST IS THE **HEAD** OF THE CHURCH**, His body, of which He is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything!
Colossians 1:18-20: Christ is the **HEAD** of the body, the **CHURCH**, He is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in **EVERYTHING HE MIGHT HAVE THE SUPREMACY**!! For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things ***ON EARTH** or things in heaven, by making peace through His blood, shed on the cross!!
Matthew 28:18-20: Jesus says, "**ALL AUTHORITY** in heaven and **ON EARTH** has been given to **ME**! Therefore go and make disciples of all nations... teaching them to **OBEY EVERYTHING I COMMANDED YOU**! And surely I am with you **ALWAYS**!!"
NOTE: The Greek name for Peter is Petros which is also the Greek word for "stone" while "Petra" is the Greek word for "**ROCK"**! I Corinthians 10:2-4: They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. They all ate the same spiritual food and drank the same spiritual drink, for they drank from the spiritual **ROCK** that accompanied them, and that **ROCK**{Greek-**PETRA**} was **CHRIST**!!
Matthew 16:15-18;21-23: Jesus said, "Who do you say I am?" Peter answered, "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God." Jesus replied, Blessed are you, Simon, son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, **BY MY FATHER** in heaven. And I tell you that you are Peter {Greek "Petros"} and on this **ROCK** {Greek-"Petra"} I will build My church..... From that time on Jesus began to explain to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and that He must be killed and on the third day be raised to life. Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, "Never, Lord!" he said, This will never happen to you!" Jesus turned and said to Peter, "Get behind Me, Satan! you are a **STUMBLING BLOCK** to Me, you do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns."
And later Peter denied the Lord Jesus three times!
Galatians 2:11,14-16: Paul said, "When Peter came to Antioch I opposed him to his face, because he was clearly in the wrong... When I saw that they were not acting in line with the truth of the Gospel, I said to Peter in front of them all: "You are a Jew. how is it then, that you force Gentiles to follow Jewish customs? We who are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners, know that a man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by observing the law, because by observing the law no one will be justified!!"
It is interesting to note that God inspired Paul to write 14 of the 27 books in the New Covenant. Peter wrote 2 books with 8 chapters and John, the disciple Jesus loved as per John 20:2; 21:7; 21:20, was inspired by God to write 5 books with 50 chapters.
Matthew 28:18-20: Jesus says, "**ALL AUTHORITY** in heaven and **ON EARTH** has been given to **ME**! Therefore go and make disciples of all nations... teaching them to **OBEY EVERYTHING I HAVE COMMANDED YOU**! And surely I am with you **ALWAYS**!!"
Jesus says, "I chose you to bear **FRUIT**, **FRUIT** that will last!"

For what was **GLORIOUS** has no glory now in comparison with the **SURPASSING GLORY**! And if what is transitory came with **GLORY** how much greater is the the **GLORY OF THAT WHICH LASTS**!... And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the **LORD'S GLORY**, are being transformed into His image with **EVER INCREASING GLORY**, which comes from the Lord!
2 Corinthians 4:15-18: All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause **THANKSGIVING** to overflow to the **GLORY OF GOD**! Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an **ETERNAL GLORY** that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is tempoary, but on what is **UNSEEN IS **ETERNAL**!
Ephesians 1:12-14: In Him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of Him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of His will, in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the **PRAISE OF HIS GLORY**!! And you were also included in Christ when you heard the message of Truth, the Gospel of your salvation. When you believed you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession--to the **PRAISE OF HIS GLORY**!!
Philippians 1:9-11: And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth an insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameness for the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ--to the **GLORY AND PRAISE OF GOD**!!
2 Corinthians 11:31: Through Jesus, therefore, let us **CONTINUALLY** offer to God a sacrifice of **PRAISE**--the fruit of lips that openly profess His name!!
I Peter 4:10,11: Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks they should do so as one who speaks the very Words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things **GOD MAY BE PRAISED** through Jesus Christ. To Him be the **GLORY** and power for ever and ever!! Amen.
Philippians 2:9-11: Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the **GLORY OF GOD THE FATHER**! {This will happen on the Last Day!}
2 Peter 3:18: But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be **GLORY BOTH NOW AND FOREVER**! Amen!
Revelation 5:9,10,12,13: "You are worthy to take the scroll and open its seals, because You were slain, and with Your blood you purchased for God persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.
... "Worthy is the **LAMB**, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and **GLORY AND PRAISE**! To Him who sits on the throne and to the **LAMB** be **PRAISE** and honor and **GLORY** and power for ever and ever!!"
Jesus says, "I chose you to bear **FRUIT**, **FRUIT** that will last!"

Jesus is Yeshua or Joshua in Hebrew and means **GOD IS HELP**!!
Matthew 1:21-23: The angel of the Lord said, " She will give birth to a Son, and you are to give Him the name **JESUS** {Which means **GOD IS HELP**}, because He will save His people from their sins." All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said {In Isaiah 7:14 below} through the prophet: "The virgin will conceive and give birth to a Son and they will all Him **IMMANUEL** which means **GOD WITH US**!"
Luke 2:9,10: An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them. The angel said, "I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a **SAVIOR** has been born to you; He is the **MESSIAH**, the **LORD**!"
Isaiah 7:14: "The Lord Himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a Son, and will call Him **IMMANUEL!" {Which means **GOD WITH US**!}
Isaiah 9:6: For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor and **MIGHTY GOD**!
Titus 2:13,14: We wait for the **BLESSED HOPE**--the glorious appearing of our **GREAT GOD** AND **SAVIOR**, Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for Himself a people that are **HIS VERY OWN**, eager to do what is good!!

Jesus is translated Joshua in Hebrew and means **GOD IS HELP**!! **JOSHUA** in Hebrew is phonetically pronounced *YESHUA* since the *J* in Hebrew is pronounced *YEH**.
Matthew 1:21-23: The angel of the Lord said, " She will give birth to a Son, and you are to give Him the name **JESUS** {Which means **GOD IS HELP**}, because He will save His people from their sins."

Isaiah 53:5,6: He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on Him, and by His wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to their own way; and the Lord has laid on **HIM** the iniquity of us all!!
I Peter 2:24,25: He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness "By His wounds you have been healed." For "You were like sheep going astray," but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your soul!
Here Peter confirms Jesus is the subject of Isaiah 53:5,6 since Peter quotes passages in Isaiah 53:5,6 **TWO** times above!!
Dueteronomy 18:17-19: The Lord said to Moses, "I will raise up a Prophet like you from among your fellow Israelites, and I will put My words in His mouth. He will tell them everything I command Him. I Myself will call to account who does listen to My words that the Prophet speaks in My name!!"
John 14:21-24: Jesus says, "Whoever has My commands and keeps them is the one who loves Me. The one who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I too will love them... Anyone who loves will obey My teaching. my Father will love them and We will come to them and make our home with them. Anyone who does not love Me will not obey My teaching. These words you hear are not My own, they belong to the Father who sent Me!"
Matthew 28:18-20: Jesus says, "**ALL AUTHORITY** in heaven on **ON EARTH** {Not Popes} has been given to Me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, an teaching them to obey **EVERYTHING I COMMANDED YOU**. And surely I am with you **ALWAYS**!"
According to Revelation 22:3 there will be only **2 THRONES** for the Father and the **LAMB** in the Heavenly Eternal New Jerusalem:
NOTE: Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is called the **LAMB** 30 times in Revelation.
Revelation 3:21: Jesus says, "To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to sit with Me on **MY THRONE***, just as I was victorious and sat down with My Father on **HIS THRONE**!"
Revelation 2:17: Jesus says, "I will also give that person a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to the one who receives it!"
John 20:27-29: Jesus said to Thomas, "Put your finger here" see My hands. Reach out your hand and put it into My side! **STOP DOUBTING AND BELIEVE!" Thomas said to Him, "**MY LORD AND MY GOD**!" Then Jesus told him, Because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed!!"
Revelation 5:9,13: "You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased for God persons from every tribe language and people and nation... To **HIM** who sits on the throne and to the **LAMB** be praise and honor and glory and power **FOR EVER AND EVER**!"
Jesus says, "I chose you to bear **FRUIT**, **FRUIT** that will last!"

**THE LATEST SATANIC UTTERANCE OF POPE FRANCIS WHO CERTAINLY QUALIFIES TO BE THE FUTURE FALSE PROPHET OF 666**:
"Through humility, soul searching, and prayerful contemplation we have gained a new understanding of certain dogmas. The church no longer believes in a literal hell where people suffer. This doctrine is incompatible with the infinite love of God. God is not a judge but a friend and a lover of humanity. God seeks not to condemn but only to embrace. Like the fable of Adam and Eve, we see hell as a literary device. Hell is merely a metaphor for the isolated soul, which like all souls ultimately will be united in love with God."� Pope Francis declared."?????
Jesus says, "I chose you to bear **FRUIT**, **FRUIT** that will last!"

**PORTRAIT OF THE FUTURE FALSE PROPHET OF 666 IN GOD'S WORD**!!
Jesus is called a **LAMB** 30 times in the book of Revelation and Revelation 13:11 states the False Prophet of 666 will be **LIKE A LAMB** which implies that he may be a well known **RELIGIOUS LEADER**!.
Revelation 17:9 shows that the future headquarters of 666 and his False Prophet will be the evil city on 7 hills or Rome {See Rev 17:9}; which is also the present headquarters of Pope Francis and the former headquarters of 666, Nero Caesar, who will come up from the Abyss or Hell as per Rev 17:8!! {See Daniel 7:23-25}
NOTE: **666** is called the **BEAST** 36 {6X6} times in Revelation and the False prophet is called **ANOTHER BEAST** one time in Revelation 13:11.
Revelation 13:11-18: Then I saw another beast coming out of the earth. He had 2 horns **LIKE A LAMB**... He will exercise all the authority of the first beast on his behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast whose fatal wound had been healed {Nero Caesar was fatally wounded by the sword and yet will live again}... He will order them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived... He will be given power to give breath to the image {Statue} of the first beast, so that it could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image {On Worldwide TV?} to be killed. He will force everyone to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast {Nero Caesar?} or the number of his name. {666} This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is a man's number. The number is **666**! {The man Nero Caesar's name adds up to exactly **666** in Hebrew!}
Revelation 14:9-11: The angel of the Lord will say, "If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives the mark on the forehead or on the hand, he, too, will drink of the wine of God's fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of His wrath. He will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the **LAMB**. And the smoke of their torment rises **FOR EVER AND EVER**!!"
**THE LATEST SATANIC UTTERANCE OF POPE FRANCIS WHO CERTAINLY QUALIFIES TO BE THE FUTURE FALSE PROPHET OF 666**:
"Through humility, soul searching, and prayerful contemplation we have gained a new understanding of certain dogmas. The church no longer believes in a literal hell where people suffer. This doctrine is incompatible with the infinite love of God. God is not a judge but a friend and a lover of humanity. God seeks not to condemn but only to embrace. Like the fable of Adam and Eve, we see hell as a literary device. Hell is merely a metaphor for the isolated soul, which like all souls ultimately will be united in love with God."� Pope Francis declared."?????
**LIKE POPE FRANCIS THE FALSE PROPHET OF 666 WILL SPREAD THE LIES THAT YOU CAN WORSHIP THE BEAST AND HIS STATUE AND RECEIVE THE MARK OF THE BEAST, AND STILL GO TO HEAVEN, AND THAT THERE WILL BE NO HELL**!!
Pope Francis has also declared: �All religions are true, because they are true in the hearts of all those who believe in them. What other kind of truth is there? In the past, the church has been harsh on those it deemed morally wrong or sinful. Today, we no longer judge. Like a loving father, we never condemn our children. Our church is big enough for heterosexuals and homosexuals, for the pro-life and the pro-choice! For conservatives and liberals, even communists are welcome and have joined us. We all love and worship the same God.�
Pope Francis has also declared: "The Lord has redeemed all of us, with the Blood of Christ:, not just Catholics. Everyone! Even the atheists. Everyone!" However Jesus says, "No one can come to the Father except through Me." John 1:12,13: To all who received Him {Jesus}, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God--children born not of human descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God!
Pope Francis also says, "Who am I to judge homosexuals." and Pope Francis states that sincere homosexuals will also enter the kingdom of heaven. But what does God's Word say?? I Corinthians 6:9-11: Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor **HOMOSEXUAL OFFENDERS** will inherit the kingdom of God. {Unless they repent} And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
For the first time in History the Roman Catholic Church has elected a **JESUIT POPE*!! One of the main enforcers of the Roman Catholic Inquisitions were the Jesuits. All Jesuits take the same Satanic oath today. Pope Francis has taken and administered this same Satanic Jesuit oath which includes the following amazing statements:"I promise and declare that I will, when opportunity presents, make and wage war , secretly and openly, against all heretics and protestants as I am directed to do, to extirpate them from the face of the whole earth; and that I will spare neither age, sex nor condition, and that I will hang, burn, waste, boil, flay, strangle, and bury alive those infamous heretics; rip open their stomachs and wombs of their women, and crush their infants heads against the walls in order to annihilate their execrable race.
And so it is interesting to note that the 112th and last pope {??} who is the leader of about 1,000,000,000 {One Billion} Roman Catholics agrees with Satan on everything!!
Matthew 23:9: "Jesus says, "Do not call *ANYONE on earth 'father,' for you have **ONE FATHER**, and He is in *HEAVEN*!!" This is an obvious reference to a SPIRITUAL FATHER since earthly fathers of earthly children are mentioned hundreds of times in God's Word. And so according to Jesus: calling the leader of the Satanic Roman Catholic Church 'Holy Father' is a terrible sin.
Pope Francis {Who Satanists call **HOLY FATHER**} has made a Papal Decree stating that he alone has given power to Roman Catholic priests {Who Satanists call **FATHERS**} to forgive **ALL ABORTIONS** which would include Gruesome and Horrific Abortions an hour before conception!! Is this **MURDER**??
As usual, the Satanic Pope Francis is absolutely contradicting God's Sacred Word!!:
Psalm 22:10: David said, "From my mother's **WOMB** you have been My God!"
Psalm 139:13: David said, "For you created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's **WOMB**!"
Isaiah 44:2: This is what the Lord says--He who made you, who formed you in the **WOMB**!
Isaiah 44:24: This is what the Lord says--your Redeemer, who formed you in the **WOMB**!
Jeremiah 1:5: The Lord said, "Before I formed you in the **WOMB** I knew you!"
**AND SO WE CAN SAFELY CONCLUDE THAT POPE FRANCIS COMPLETELY QUALIFIES TO BE THE FUTURE DECEPTIVE FALSE PROPHET OF 666 FROM THE EVIL CITY ON 7 HILLS**!!
Jesus says, "I chose you to bear **FRUIT**, **FRUIT** that will last!"

THERE WILL BE 2 COMINGS OF JESUS ON THE SAME LAST DAY. THE FIRST COMING WILL BE *FOR* HIS SAINTS AND THE SECOND COMING *WITH* HIS SAINTS:
Revelation 19:7,8,11,14,19,20; 20:10: "The wedding of the Lamb has come, and His bride has made herself ready. Fine linen bright and clean was given her to wear...I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose Rider is called Faithful and True...The armies of heaven were following Him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen **WHITE** and clean... I saw the Beast {666} and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to make war against the Rider on the horse and His army. But the Beast will be captured, and with him the False Prophet who had performed miraculous signs on his behalf...The two of them will be thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur...And the Devil who deceived them will be thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the Beast and the False Prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever."
The **SECOND RESURRECTION** on the Last Day will not include the **MARTYRS** who have been continually resurrected in the 1,000 year **FIRST RESURRECTION** before the Last Day; and have already received their **WHITE ROBES** as per Revelation 6:9-11 & Rev 7:9-17!!
Revelation 17:14: "They will make war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will overcome them because He is Lord of lords and King of kings--and with Him will be Him called, chosen and faithful followers!"
666 is referred to in the MASCULINE gender 28 times and the Beast is never referred to in the feminine or neuter gender. It is interesting to note that if the Beast of the end-times will be a religious organization, country or city it would be referred to in the female or neuter gender!!! The masculine pronouns used for the Beast are "HIS" 11 times: Rev 13:1, 5,16b,18b; 14:9,11; 17:7b; 19:2; 20:4(2X) & Daniel 7:26. "HE" 10 times: Rev 13:1;6a,7a,7; 17:8b; 17:11; 2 Thess 2:6; Daniel 7:24,25 & Daniel 9:27. "HIM" 5 times: Rev 13:4b; 19:20; 2 Thess 2:6; Daniel 7:25 & Daniel 9:27. "HIMSELF" 2 times in 2 Thess 2:4.
In Thess 2:3 the Beast of the End-Times is called a "*MAN* of sin or lawlessness" or very SINFUL MAN and therefore the name of the Beast which adds up to 666 is a *MAN'S* name which is also confirmed in Rev 13:17b,18 below. The False Prophet is also only referred to in the MASCULINE gender and is called "HE" 10 times in Rev 13:18 {2}; 13:12; 13:13; 13:14 {3} 13:15; 13:16 and Rev 19:18.
666 is called a "BEAST" 36 or *6X6* times in Revelation and the False Prophet of 666 is called the *BEAST of the EARTH* one time in Rev 13:11.
The False Prophet of 666 will be very powerful and well-known religious person and most likely will be a very deceptive speaker on TV and very good at telling deceptive lies.{Pope Francis?} Satan is called a Dragon in Revelation 12:3,7: and 13:1 and 16:13.
The BEAST, mentioned 36 {6X6} times in Revelation, is a much better name than the antichrist since anti-christ is mentioned 5 times in God's Word {I John 2:18{2X}, 22; 4:3; 2 John 1:7} and each time the word encompasses all who are against Christ. Such as I John 2:18: "Even now *MANY** anti-christs have come."
Revelation 13:4-10: Men worshipped the Dragon {Satan} because he had given authority to the Beast {666}, and they also worshipped the Beast {666} and asked, "Who is like the Beast {666}? Who can make war against him?" The Beast {666} was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies and to exercise his authority for 42 {30-day} months {Or 1260 days or time {360 days} times {720 days and 1/2 a time {180 days} {See Daniel 7:25 and Daniel 12:1,2,7b} ....
He was given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And He {666} was given authority over **EVERY** tribe, people, language and nation. All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast--all whose names have not been written in the Book of Life belonging to the Lamb that was slain. He who has an ear let him hear: If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity he will go . If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the sword he will be killed. This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of the saints!!
Revelation 13:11-18: The I saw another Beast coming out of the *EARTH*{The False Prophet}. He had 2 horns like a lamb {religious person}, but he spoke like a dragon {a deceptive liar like Satan}. He exercised all the authority of the first Beast {666} on his behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast {666}, whose fatal wound had been healed. And he performed great and miraculous signs, even causing fire to come from down from heaven to earth in full view of men. Because of the signs he was given power to do on behalf of the first beast {666}, he deceived the inhabitants of the earth. He ordered them to set up an image {Or statue} in honor of the beast {666} who was wounded by the sword and yet lived. He was given power to give breath to the image {Or statue} of the first beast {666}, so it could {Miraculously} speak and cause all who refused to worship the image {Or statue on worldwide TV?} to be killed. He also forced everyone to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast {Nero Caesar} or the number of his name {666}. This calls for wisdom. if anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is a **MAM'S** number. His number is 666.
Daniel 12:1b,2,7b: �There will be a time of distress {The Great Tribulation} such as not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time {The Last Day} your people--*EVERYONE* whose name is found written in the Book {Both OT & NT Saints}�will be delivered. Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt�It will be for a time. times and half a time {1260 days-Rev 12:6,14, or 42 {30-day} months-Rev 13:5-{Not 7 years} *ALL* these things will be *COMPLETED.
Daniel 7:21,22,25-27: This horn {666} was waging war against the saints and defeating them, until the Ancient of Days came and pronounced judgment in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came when they possessed the Kingdom...He {666} will speak against the Most High and oppress His saints . The saints will be handed over to him for time {360 days} times {720 days} and 1/2 a time {180 days} {Or 1260 days}. But then the court will sit, and his power will be taken away and completely destroyed forever {See Rev 19:20}. Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven will be handed over to the saints, the people of the Most High. His Kingdom will be an EVERLASTING KINGDOM!!
By comparing Revelation 12:5 with Revelation 12:13 we know that time {360 days} times {720 days} and 1/2 a time is exactly 1260 days; and also 42 30-day months is also exactly 1260 days!!
THERE WILL BE 2 COMINGS OF JESUS ON THE SAME LAST DAY. THE FIRST COMING WILL BE *FOR* HIS SAINTS AND THE SECOND COMING *WITH* HIS SAINTS:
Revelation 19:7,8,11,14,19,20; 20:10: "The wedding of the Lamb has come, and His bride has made herself ready.

"HE" 10 times: Rev 13:1;6a,7a,7; 17:8b; 17:11; 2 Thess 2:6; Daniel 7:24,25 & Daniel 9:27. "HIM" 5 times: Rev 13:4b; 19:20; 2 Thess 2:6; Daniel 7:25 & Daniel 9:27. "HIMSELF" 2 times in 2 Thess 2:4.

666 is called a "BEAST" 36 or *6X6* times in Revelation and the False Prophet of 666 is called the *BEAST of the EARTH* one time in Rev 13:11.

Revelation 13:11-18: The I saw another Beast coming out of the *EARTH*{The False Prophet}. He had 2 horns like a lamb {religious person}, but he spoke like a dragon {a deceptive liar like Satan}. He exercised all the authority of the first Beast {666} on his behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast {666}, whose fatal wound had been healed. And he performed great and miraculous signs, even causing fire to come from down from heaven to earth in full view of men. Because of the signs he was given power to do on behalf of the first beast {666}, he deceived the inhabitants of the earth. He ordered them to set up an image {Or statue} in honor of the beast {666} who was wounded by the sword and yet lived. He was given power to give breath to the image {Or statue} of the first beast {666}, so it could {Miraculously} speak and cause all who refused to worship the image {Or statue on worldwide TV?} to be killed. He also forced everyone to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast {Nero Caesar} or the number of his name {666}. This calls for wisdom. if anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is a **MAM'S** number. His number is 666.
Daniel 12:1b,2,7b: �There will be a time of distress {The Great Tribulation} such as not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time {The Last Day} your people--*EVERYONE* whose name is found written in the Book {Both OT & NT Saints}�will be delivered. Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt�It will be for a time. times and half a time {1260 days-Rev 12:6,14, or 42 {30-day} months-Rev 13:5-{Not 7 years} *ALL* these things will be *COMPLETED.
Daniel 7:21,22,25-27: This horn {666} was waging war against the saints and defeating them, until the Ancient of Days came and pronounced judgment in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came when they possessed the Kingdom...He {666} will speak against the Most High and oppress His saints . The saints will be handed over to him for time {360 days} times {720 days} and 1/2 a time {180 days} {Or 1260 days}. But then the court will sit, and his power will be taken away and completely destroyed forever {See Rev 19:20}. Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven will be handed over to the saints, the people of the Most High. His Kingdom will be an EVERLASTING KINGDOM!!
By comparing Revelation 12:5 with Revelation 12:13 we know that time {360 days} times {720 days} and 1/2 a time is exactly 1260 days; and also 42 30-day months is also exactly 1260 days!!
