Ministry of Paradise

“Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?” (James 2:5). “For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe” (1 Corinthians 1:17-21). Jesus also reminds us to not “Let the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word and it becometh unfruitful” (Mark 4:19). “For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” (Mark 8:36-37). “Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded” (Proverbs 13:13). “Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live” (Proverbs 4:4). “I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil” (Psalm 119:62). “Thy word is true from the beginning: and ...

“For all the earth is mine” (Exodus 19:5).   “The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein” (Psalms 95:5, 24:1). Therefore, the least every human being must do daily is to give God thanks in the name of his only begotten Son Jesus Christ (John 3:16-18)! “For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God” (Colossians 3:2–3). “For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive” (1 Corinthians 15:21–22). Now, therefore, “as the only way to get the things that are eternal is through Jesus Christ who died for us; for this purpose then we should live unto him and not unto ourselves” (2 Corinthians 5:15). “Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 5:20).

“Then said Jesus unto his disciples, ‘If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me’” (Matthew 16:24). “And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me” (Matthew 10:38). “For it is written, ‘I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.’ For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God” (1 Corinthians 1:18-19).  “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18). “Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the e...

“I rather be righteous than rich!” “For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright” (Psalm 11:7). “The LORD liveth, in truth, in judgment, and in righteousness” (Jeremiah 4:2). Jesus says: “How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the Kingdom of God” (Luke 18:24).   “Woe unto you that are rich; for ye have received your consolation” (Luke 6:24). “Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death” (Proverbs 11:4).

His name is JESUS; the only begotten Son of God. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). The whole world would be wise to follow him because only he has been given the power to give human beings life forever! “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him” (John 3:36). “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness” (Romans 1:18). Jesus Christ says: “Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life” (John 5:39–40). “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6). 

“O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the LORD” (Jeremiah 22:29). “Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God” (Isaiah 44:6). “Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself” (Isaiah 44:24). “I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me. Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker” (Isaiah 45:5, 9).

“The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come” (Joel 2:31). Our Lord, Savior and King explained of his coming, saying: “Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame” (Revelation 16:15). “But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light” (1 Thessalonians 5:4–5). “Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Thessalonians 5:6-9). “Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waitet...

Let these words resonate in our daily lives as spoken by the Apostle Paul, saying: “Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things” (Philippians 4:4-8). “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me” (Philippians 4:13). “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen” (Philippians 4:23).

REPENT OF SINS! “For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment” (2 Peter 2:4); “Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness” (Luke 11:35). “Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations” (Psalm 82:8). “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God” (Psalm 9:17). “And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth” (Revelation 11:18). “And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of t...

“And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” (Acts 17:30-31). “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad” (2 Corinthians 5:10). “The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Acts 2:20-21). “Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of fa...

Jesus, the only begotten Son of God says: “The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel” (Mark 1:15). “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come” (Matthew 24:14). “Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish” (Luke 13:3). “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9). “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away” (Matthew 24:35).

“No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him” (John 1:18). Therefore, the Apostle Paul said: “(For we walk by faith, not by sight)” (2 Corinthians 5:7): faithfully following Jesus who “is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature, the Son of God, the faithful and true witness of God and that the trial of our faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honor and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ. Whom having not seen, we love; in whom, though we now see him not, yet believing, we rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory. Receiving the end of our faith, even the salvation of our souls” (1 Peter 1:7–9).

“The LORD liveth, in truth, in judgment, and in righteousness” (Jeremiah 4:2). “No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him” (John 1:18). Jesus, the only begotten Son says: “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him” (John 4:24, 23). “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” (Hebrews 11:6). “The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. Seek the LORD, and ye shall live. Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out up...

“For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth” (Romans 10:4). “What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” (Romans 6:15-16, 20, 22-23).

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus” (Romans 3:23-24). “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him” (Romans 5-8-9). “For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous so...

“This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all” (1 John 1:5). “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning” (James 1:17). “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). Jesus, the only begotten Son of God says: “‘He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me. And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me. I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness’” (John 12:44–46). “I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12). “As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world” (John 9:5). “I am with you alway, even unto the end of th...

Jesus says:   “Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat; because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it” (Matthew 7:13–14). “I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12). “As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world” (John 9:5). “I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world” (Matthew 28:20). 

“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” (Hebrews 11:1). “While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal” (2 Corinthians 4:18). “For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him” (Isaiah 64:4). “For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it” (Romans 8:22-25). In the Book o...

“Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD. And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it” (Amos 8:11-12). While there is time today for those among us who have not already done so, “Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read” (Isaiah 34:16).

Jesus says: “No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of God” (Luke 9:62). “For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet” (Matthew 24:6–7). “All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake” (Matthew 24:8-9). “And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake. “But there shall not a hair of your head perish. In your patience possess ye your souls” (Luke 21:16–19). “And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child...

Time as this word is being written and now read is ticking away; literally ticking away towards the end of time; the end of the world (Matthew 13:39, 24:3). Unfortunately, many people are being deceived by false prophets with doctrines of the coming ‘age of Aquarius’. Jesus’ disciples yearned to know when the sign of his coming and the end of the world. “And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the [SIGN OF THY COMING, AND OF THE END OF THE WORLD]? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you” (Matthew 24:3-4). Unfortunately, many people are being deceived by false prophets with doctrines of called of the coming ‘age of Aquarius’. Jesus warns saying: “Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many” (Matthew 24:3-4). The antichrist is going to come first and will deceive many...

“Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint” (Isaiah 40:28-31). “The LORD hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee. Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD” (Psalms 20:1, 27:14). “The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD” (Lamentations 3:25-26).

“No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him” (John 1:18). Jesus very clearly told his disciples before he left this earth, saying: “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you” (John 14:2). He also told his disciples, “I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also” (John 14:2–3). “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6). “For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me” (John 6:38). “As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, ...

“This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it” (Psalm 118:24). Every day that passes by in this earth is one day closer to the end of the world, and the return of our Lord, Savior and King Jesus (Matthew 13:37–43,   24:1-3). However, Jesus says: “But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only” (Matthew 24:36). “But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be” (Matthew 24:37). “Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come” (Matthew 24:42).

There is coming a day on this earth when the sun and moon will not shine, and there will be a period of darkness. “The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come” (Acts 2:20). Unfortunately, untold numbers of people will continue living as normal: partying, drinking, sleeping, having fun or anything to pass the time. However, the Holy Scriptures tells the elect in the Kingdom of God to W A T C H! Our Lord, Savior and King explained of his coming, saying: “Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame” (Revelation 16:15). “But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light” (1 Thessalonians 5:4–5). “Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. Bu...

Here are some key guidelines to overcome this lifetime to inherit eternal life in the New Heavens and a New Earth. 1)     This heaven and earth belongs to God: “IN the beginning God created the heaven and the earth” (Genesis 1:1). “For all the earth is mine” (Exodus 19:5).   “The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein” (Psalms 95:5, 24:1). 2)     “God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God” (Psalm 62:11). “God is the LORD, which hath shewed us light:” (Psalm 118:27). 3)     I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil...

Ask J E S U S C H R I S T. Who is Jesus Christ? He is the only begotten Son of God, the Father. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved” (John 3:16-17). “‘Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house’” (Acts 16:31). Jesus Christ says: “I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live; and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die” (John 11:25–26). “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6).

“The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous” (Proverbs 15:29). Jesus says: “When ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him” (Matthew 6:7-8). Jesus taught us to pray saying: “Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.   Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.   And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.   And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen” (Matthew 6:9-13).

Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ says: “…that men ought always to pray, and not to faint” (Luke 18:1); “if thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small” (Proverbs 24:10). “When thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly” (Matthew 6:6). Jesus also explained that “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” (John 4:23–24); and “When ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him” (Matthew 6:7-8). “And I say unto you, ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened” (...

“The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens” (Proverbs 3:19). Now, earlier today in a POST titled: “Who is the AntiChrist” it was commented as follows: “THE antichrist/1st beast of Rev.13 is the papacy. His title vicarious filii dei =666. Add the Roman numerals and see for yourself. Also, there are about 12 other points of scripture that all together points to one place Rome.” Is this correct? The answer is NO. John said: “Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six” (Revelation 13:18). This chapter has puzzled people since the time it has been written because they are looking for wisdom in this world. To obtain wisdom and understanding we must read the word of God.   The number “666” has nothing to do with roman numerals or geometry and so on, The number is the ‘key to unlocking’ the name of the...

“THE Revelation of [JESUS CHRIST], which [GOD] gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand” (Revelation 1:1-3). “Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, [THE DEVIL] shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life” (Revelation 2:10). “And the [GREAT DRAGON] was cast out, that old serpent, called [THE DEVIL, AND SATAN], which [DECEIVETH THE WHOLE WORLD]: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him” (Revelation 12:9). “And they [WORSHIPPED THE DRAGON] which gave powe...

“Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time” (1 John 2:18). The antichrist has not risen to power yet! However, without any doubt, in this present time, utmost deception is being used by the ‘great mystery kingdom’ for the eventual rise to power of the seventh world king. This seventh or antichrist king will be handsome and the most wealthy person, and he will have powers that will exceed those seen by superheroes in the movies (Daniel 8:23–24, 9:16, 11:8, 45) (Revelation 13:13). When this “…KING OF FIERCE COUNTENANCE…” rises to power in the spirit of the devil, “the God of forces, a strange god whom his fathers knew not shall he honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things” (Daniel 11:38). “And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, ‘Who is like unto the beast? w...
