Almost 300 Postings Follow 'A Portion Of My Testimony'!

Back in '91 i had been in "search of the church(aka: Ecclesia, which i now testify -IS - "The Family of Our FATHER and ELOHIM"!)" for almost 5 years. And i had crisscrossed this place on earth they call the u.s.a. from Vermont to California, Washington to Florida, and North Dakota to Texas(Was in all original 48 states, except Maine)!
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2011/07/family-of-faith-or-system-of-religion.html

During that time i knew in my heart that "Our FATHER(CREATOR) and ELOHIM(SPIRIT{'God' IS of pagan greek mythology!})" wanted me to give up my vocation(Self-employed computer consultant, systems analyst!), yet i didn't know what i could do, or would do, if i did quit. (John 20:17, Proverbs 3:5-6)

However, the experiences while on that journey, as i searchcd for the 'church', revealed much of that which -IS- of The TRUTH! And simplicity became a beacon for me! i had left most of my possessions(Which actually possessed me!) behind when i began my search in earnest, and i could load all my "stuff" into the back of a '76 ford courier pickup w/shell.

Then finally, in November of '91 while in colorado, "i quit"!

It was then that i awoke from the "american dream" and said, "no more" to the ways of this world!

"Rulers are not a terror to good works!?! But to the evil"?!? (Romans 13:3)

TRUTH IS!  Romans 13:3 DOES NOT bear witness unto worldly rulers in these last days! 

For TRUTH IS! In these last days, "The WHOLE world IS under the control of 'D'evil one"!(Yet Thankfully The Family of Our FATHER and ELOHIM IS !NOW!, for "The Born Again" brethren(naturally male or 'fe'male) of The Messiah! For He DID "Come Again" and "Quickly" when old jerusalem was destroyed! And The Messiah then delivered up The Kingdom unto Our FATHER and ELOHIM!)! (John 7:7, I John 2:15-17; 5:19, James 4:4)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/06/thy-kingdom-has-come-luke-1721.html?m=0

And "whoever would be a friend of this world IS the enemy of Our FATHER and ELOHIM"! (James 4:4)

Thankfully "Tribulation Begets Patience"! (Romans 5:3)

Life seems so easy when you're up on the mountain,

And you have peace of mind like you've never known.

But then things change, and you're down in the valley,

Just keep The Faith for you're never alone!

For The GOD of the mountain, - IS - still GOD in the valley,

The GOD of the day, - IS - still GOD in the night!

The GOD of the good times, - IS - still GOD in the bad times,

When things(Seem to!) go wrong, HE can make them right!

And Thankfully, "Tribulation begets Patience, and Patience begets Experience, and Experience begets Hope"! (Romans 5:3b-4)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2010/10/hope-of-heaven-for-hope-which-is-laid.html

Thankfully The NEW Covenant WAS and - IS - Heavenly!

For The NEW Covenant IS of The Spirit of TRUTH that testifies, "He IS NOT a Jew(Chosen of Our FATHER and ELOHIM!) who IS one outwardly, whose circumcision IS that of the flesh! (Because TRUTH IS!) He IS a Jew who IS one inwardly, whose circumcision was that of the heart" as he was immersed in, of, by and through The Holy, Set Apart, SPIRIT that IS The One and Only True ELOHIM('God' IS of pagan greek mythology!) and FATHER of ALL! (Romans 2:29, John 17:3)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/09/our-father-and-god-john-2017.html

And all "Born Again" NEW Covenant believers are "grafted into The GOOD olive tree"! (John 3:3,7, I Peter 1:23, Romans 11:24)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2020/04/i-realized-miraculous-born-again.html#more

For they are NEW Covenant Jews(Chosen Souls of Our FATHER and ELOHIM!) and brethren(naturally male or 'fe'male) of The Messiah, He Who was a Jew!

'Faith' that - IS - built upon sinking sand...... ..... .... ... .. .

(Matthew 7:21-27) The Messiah testified, "Not everyone who says unto me ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, but the soul who - DOES - The Will of My FATHER WHO - IS - in Heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, didn’t we prophesy in your name, and in your name cast out demons, and in your name do many mighty works'? Then I will tell them, ‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you who work iniquity'!

Yet everyone who hears these words of Mine and DOES THEM, I will liken him unto a wise man who built his house on a rock. And the rain came down, the floods came and the winds blew, and beat on that house. And it didn’t fall, for it was grounded on The Rock!

Yet everyone who hears these words of Mine and DOESN'T DO THEM, will be liken unto a foolish man who built his house on the sand. And the rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house. And great was the fall of it!” (Matthew 7:21-27)

The ways of 'D'evil's world and its religions are not for the brethren of The Messiah!

The brethren(naturally male or 'fe'male) of The Messiah do not follow the ways of 'D'evil's world and/or religion(Except it be The Active Faith as revealed in James 1:27!) in these last days, for we but seek and desire to follow The Messiah on that "Narrow Way" that - IS - "The Way(TO), The TRUTH(OF) The Life"! (John 7:7, James 4:4; 1:27, Matthew 7:14, John 14:6)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/10/love-not-world.html

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2008/10/pure-and-undefiled-religion.html

And as The Messiah prophesied, - SO IT WAS - that He DID "Come Again", and "QUICKLY in the clouds", during that time when "the end of the old covenant age" - WAS - ! (Revelations 3:11, Hebrews 8:13)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2011/06/i-come-quickly.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/06/and-then-end-will-come-matthew-2414.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-new-covenant-and-new-covenant-jew.html

Thankfully that which was "decaying and waxing old" - DID - "vanish away" with the destruction of the natural, earthly, temporal temple realm centered in old jerusalem! Such was the end of the judaic system which consisted of laws, rites, natural temporal things and all else that had it's portion, and yet has it's portion in religion's way....... (Hebrews 8:13, Mark 9:1, Matthew 24:3, I Thessalonians 4:17-18, James 4:7-8, Jeremiah 31:31-34)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/09/religion-was-and-is-yet-needful-for.html

"Born Again" And Awaiting That Final Transformation!

Thankfully soon, and very soon a "Born Again" soul - IS - Set Free! Free indeed from their earthly, natural, fleshly, temporal temple(Body)!  (John 8: 32, II Peter 1:13-14, II Corinthians 5:1; 6:16, 1 Corinthians 3:16-17; 6:19)
 http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2020/04/i-realized-miraculous-born-again.html#more

!.......FOREVER.......!

HalleluYAH!

Yet for all of humankind this natural life begins in the "egg" of a wo(mb)man(the field), fertilized by the seed that came from a man(ie: Except The Messiah who was Begotten of The Seed of Our FATHER and ELOHIM, and so it was He was born in "the likeness of sinful flesh")! (Luke 1:26-38, Romans 8:3) 

Yet Our FATHER and ELOHIM('God' IS of pagan greek mythology!), HE provides the breath(Spirit/air) and nourishment within the body of a wo(mb)man which sustains both her life, and the life within her womb! Life that began when the seed of a man fertilized the egg in her womb!
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/09/our-father-and-god-john-2017.html

Then Thankfully, Our FATHER and ELOHIM also provides that which IS needful(Spirit/air/soul) for a child to be born naturally!  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/09/grow-in-grace-and-in-knowledge-of-our.html

And Hope IS that one day that natural child will be "Born Again" Spiritually as well!
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2020/04/i-realized-miraculous-born-again.html#more

Yet what IS IT that nourishes the "Born Again" of The Holy, Set Apart, SPIRIT child within a souls natural body? This temporal "temple" that IS liken unto a "womb" in which a "Born Again of The SPIRIT" child IS nourished and "grows in Grace"! (John 3:3,7, I Peter 1:23, I Corinthians 6:19, II Peter 3:18)

A Reply to one called "Two Oaks" concerning The TRUTH!

Two Oaks, as i reviewed the thread it came to me to respond further to the comments you posted, one of which was "The time will come when the indigenous people will beat the white man at his own game".......

How can i be but sad for those indigenous people who believe they will "beat the white(Spirited!) man at his own game"!

And needs be i testify that i am a "white man" outwardly(Of the flesh!), yet not inwardly(Spirit)! And neither am i a wanna be "Indian(Indigenous soul!)" in any of the indian tribes i know of on earth in these last days! TRUTH IS! - It IS - The Spirit that - IS - within the heart of a man that - IS - the man, not his outward appearance! And The Faithful - ARE - Family(Tribe!), in deed, SPIRIT and TRUTH!

Carnal warfare IS RELIGION'S WAY! Which IS politics! Which IS money! Which IS?

"A ROOT OF EVIL", not "the root of all evil(As translated in the kjv bible)"!  (I Timothy 6:10) 

Yes, "the love of money, IS a root of evil", yet TRUTH IS! "The lust of the eyes(The fruit was pleasing to Eve's eyes!), the lust of the flesh(Eve thought the fruit of tree was good for food!), and the pride("I", ego, id, self)of life(Eve thought the fruit of the tree would make her wise!)" are the roots of all evil......." (I Timothy 6:10, Genesis 3:1-7, I John 2:15-17)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-must-die.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-foundation-and-beginning-of-world.html

Yet excessive amounts of money are sought by those souls who are bound in the chains of "strong delusion" that are fabricated by those lost souls who are of 'D'evil's world and/or religion's way(Except it be The Active Faith as revealed in James 1:27)! Those greedy, covetous, lust-filled lovers of the things that are of Devil's world, or those who "love their own life in and of this evil world" and/or religion's way in these last days....... (II Thessalonians 2:10:13, John 7:7; 12:25, I John 2:15-17; 5:19, James 1:27; 4:4)

John Bunyan's "Pilgrim's Progress".......

i find it quite revealing that most all of the religions(Cults!) which declare that they are "catholic" and/or "christian" appreciate John Bunyan's literary work called "Pilgrim's Progress".
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/10/someone-accused-me-of-being-member-of.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/09/religion-was-and-is-yet-needful-for.html

However when - IT IS -mentioned that 'the first step christian took' when he began his "Faith Walk", was to leave his natural family behind because they would not take heed unto his words(Which were of "The Word of TRUTH{aka: bible}") and "walk the walk"? (Mark 10:28-30, II Corinthians 5:7,  II Thessalonians 2:10-13,  James 1:18, I John 2:6)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/07/thankfully-faith-wins-victory-i-john-54.html

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/10/all-so-called-biblical-translations-are.html

Well, all of a sudden religious souls question?  Then ridicule!  Sadly such begets denial of The TRUTH(The 'head' of a family - IS -the husband!), as other works of the flesh and fleshly mindedness manifest themselves....... (Galatians 5:16 -17, II Corinthians 1:12)

And sadly, today the prophetic words of Isaiah 3:12 !RESOUND! midst the perverseness and destruction that - IS - of 'D'evil's world and/or religion's way(Except it be The Active Faith revealed in James 1:27!) in these last days!  (John 7:7, I John 2:15-17; 5:19, James 1:27; 4:4)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/10/love-not-world.html

"Stop visiting sacred name cult websites"!

Someone exhorted me to, "Stop visiting sacred name cult websites, for there's no such name as Yahshua in the Hebrew language"!

And i responded:

Didn't say there was, yet such - IS - a right and proper english version of The Messiah's ELOHIM('God' IS of pagan greek mythology!) given Hebrew birth name! For both Yahshua(Joshua in today's english language!) of the old covenant and The Messiah were given the same Hebrew birth name!
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2011/08/name-of-messiah.html

And proof of such will be manifest later in this testimony and @ 
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-name-and-title-of-anointed-one-son.html

And i have no desire to visit "sacred name websites", except for using that which they have published to expose them for what they Truly are! For ALL religions(Except it be The Active Faith as revealed in James 1:27!) - ARE - "cults"!  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/08/a-multiple-choice-of-pagan-catholic-and.html

And Yes! Atheism - IS -  a religious "cult" as well, for atheists see their version of a 'god("I",ego,id,self,pride)' each and every time they view their reflected "image"!

Self ("I", ego, id, pride) Denial Begets Faith, And Thankfully TRUTH - IS - Faith Wins The Victory Over Sin, 'D'evil and Death!

Someone had testified, "Self-confidence is the key: do you have it"?

And i responded:

Rather than "self-confidence", self("I", ego, id, pride)denial begets Faith, and Faith evermore begets self-denial! (Luke 9:23)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/06/life-or-death-easy-choice-however-to.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-must-die.html

And Thankfully Faith Wins The Victory over sin, self, religion(James 1:27 reveals The Active Faith of The One and Only "Pure Religion and Undefiled"!), 'D'evil "god of this world", and ultimately death! (I John 5:4, Galatians 2:20, James 1:27, I Corinthians 15:54-55, Mark 8:34, John 11:26)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/07/thankfully-faith-wins-victory-i-john-54.html

"Set Your Affection On Things Above!" (Colossians 3:2)

(Colossians 3:1-3) "If you then are risen with The Messiah, seek those things which are above, where The Messiah sits on the right hand of Our FATHER and ELOHIM!  
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/09/our-father-and-god-john-2017.html

Set your affection(#5426) on things above(#507), not things on the earth.......

For you("I",ego,id,self,pride) are dead, and your Life IS hid with The Messiah IN Our FATHER and 
ELOHIM('God' IS OF Pagan Greek Mythology)"! (Colossians 3:1-3)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-must-die.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/06/are-you-alien-and-pilgrim-while-on-earth.html

5426  phroneo (fron-eh'-o); to exercise the mind, i.e. entertain or have a sentiment or opinion; by implication, to be(mentally) disposed(More or less earnestly in a certain direction!) intensively, to interest oneself in(With concern or obedience); from 5424 phren; understanding.

507  ano (an'-o); adverb from 473; upward or on the top.

"Set your affections on {Heavenly} things above, not things on the earth"! 

"Heal me Oh ELOHIM! And i shall be healed! Save me! And i shall be saved!" (Jeremiah 17:14)

"Heal me, Oh ELOHIM('God' IS of pagan greek mythology), and I shall be healed......." (Jeremiah 17:14a, Psalms 6:2)

Thankfully i have experienced such, for there was a time when i was abiding in a mountain wilder-ness(No doctors and no medication!) area of Old Mexico(Copper Canyon), and amoebic dysentery had run it's course! i was so weak that i could no longer arise and stand on my feet, and it seemed as though this dis-ease would be the end of my earthly existence.......

Yet then i heard A Voice, which i believe was The Voice of Our FATHER and ELOHIM, clearly speak "Rise Up and Walk"! And i was instantly healed from the dis-ease which i thought was going to be the end of this natural, temporal life on earth. Yet i rose up from that bed of affliction Evermore Hopeful and Thankful!

HalleluYAH!       !.......FOREVER.......! 

"There are some standing here !NOW! who will not taste of death!" (Mark 9:1)

The Messiah testified, "There are some standing here !NOW! who WILL NOT TASTE OF DEATH, until they(Those souls The Messiah was speaking to!) have seen The Kingdom Of Our FATHER And ELOHIM('God' IS of pagan greek mythology!) Come with Power!" (Mark 9:1, Matthew 16:28, Luke 9:27) 

AND SO IT WAS! .......When old jerusalem was destroyed.......

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/07/there-are-some-standing-here-now-who.html

And such - IS - revealed in the testimony that follows:

TRUTH IS! After The Messiah was crucified, and "Our FATHER and ELOHIM raised Him from among the dead", The Messiah ascended into Heaven! And "Our FATHER and ELOHIM gave The Messiah rule and authority over everything in HIS Kingdom! The only exception being HIMSELF(Our FATHER and ELOHIM)!" (John 20:17, Ephesians 4:9-10, I Corinthians 15:15,24-28)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/09/our-father-and-god-john-2017.html

Are you an "Alien and Pilgrim on the earth"?

"The Word of TRUTH" testifies, "Dearly beloved, i exhort you as Aliens(aka: Strangers) and Pilgrims to abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul"! (James 1:18, I Peter 2:11, Hebrews 11:13, Philippians 3:20, Hebrews 13:14, Colossians 3:1-3)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-foundation-and-beginning-of-world.html

Thankfully, "Aliens and Pilgrims" are those souls who have "received a love of The TRUTH so that they might be saved" from their own self("I",ego,id,pride)life!
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-must-die.html 
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2013/05/one-needs-receive-love-of-truth-to-be.html

Yes! "a love of The TRUTH" more than our own natural, temporal life it("I",ego,id,pride)self! And then we were "Born Again" of The Holy, Set Apart, SPIRIT that IS Our FATHER and ELOHIM! (II Thessalonians 2:10-13, John 8:32-36; 3:3,7, I Peter 1:23, John 20:17)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2020/04/i-realized-miraculous-born-again.html#more

Surrender, Dependence and Faith! "The Way to The Truth of The Life "! (John 14:6)

Yes! For The CREATOR(Our FATHER and ELOHIM!), HE knows what IS best for HIS Creation! And The Messiah, The First Born of Creation, revealed The Way < TO > The Truth < OF > The Life in both His Life Example and The Teachings He received from Our FATHER and ELOHIM!

HalleluYAH!

However, "The Preaching of The Cross IS Foolishness Unto Those Who Will Perish"! (I Corinthians 1:18)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2011/01/have-you-been-double-crossed.html

TRUTH IS! The "I(ego,id,self,pride)" that IS in each and every human needs be "nailed to the cross" for their soul to be saved! (Matthew 16:24, Luke 14:33)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-must-die.html

And the brethren(naturally male or 'fe'male) of the Messiah are exhorted to; "Be not like those whose god IS their belly, and whose glory IS in their shame, because they mind earthly things."(Philippians 3:19)

"Set your affections on things above", Heavenly things....... (Colossians 3:1-3)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2012/10/set-your-affection-on-things-above.html 

"The Messiah learned obedience by the things which He suffered"? (Hebrews 5:8)

"Get understanding!" (Proverbs 4:5-7; 16:16)

The Messiah "learned obedience"? (Hebrews 5:8)

Yes, a soul could say that "The Messiah learned obedience", because as a child The Messiah subjected Himself unto His natural parents. (Luke 2:43-51)

However, why would The Messiah need to "learn obedience"?

Was He not obedient?

Would not disobedience be sin?

Yet The Messiah "was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin!" (Hebrews 4:15)

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2012/10/taking-bait-and-lies-are-swallowed-hook.html

"ALL things work together for The GOOD"! (Romans 8:28)

"ALL things work together for The GOOD(Not that all things are good, or seem to be good at the time!) for those who love Our FATHER and GOD, those souls who are the called according to HIS purpose"! For "HE works in HIS children both The Will and The Doing of HIS GOOD Pleasure"! (Romans 8:28, Philippians 2:13, I John 3:2)  
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/07/father-not-my-will-but-thy-will-be-done.html

And HIS GOOD Pleasure would be that "all men would be saved and come to the knowledge of The TRUTH" so they might see "The Light" that IS The Messiah! Yet worldly and/or religious souls "love the darkness rather than The Light because their deeds are evil"! And they "love this evil world and their own life in and of it", for they have never received "a love of The TRUTH so that they might be saved" from their own self("I", ego, id, pride)life! (I Timothy 2:4, John 3:19-21; 7:7; 12:25, James 4:4, II Thessalonians 2:10-13)

Simply, philosophy has it's portion in "the wisdom of this world" and "knowledge(aka: Science!), falsely so-called", which "are but foolishness unto Our FATHER and ELOHIM('God' IS of pagan greek mythology)"! (I Corinthians 1:20; 3:19, II Corinthians 1:1, I Timothy 6:20)
