Do You Believe The Lie ?

Greetings in the name of Jesus! This is Rob Haymes. This is 15 Minutes With Jesus. Wherever two or three are gathered together in My name, Jesus said, there am I in the midst of them. To those of you who love Him in truth: mercy unto you and peace and love be multiplied. (Jude 1:2)

Praise the Lord! We thank you Father for this day; we bless your holy name Father. I pray Father right now, in Jesus’ name, that you would give us ears to hear what the Holy Spirit is saying, right now, in Jesus’ name, open our hearts and help us to believe the truth.

Today’s program is called, Do You Believe The Lie ? Let’s turn to Gen 2:7, And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being. The Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He had formed. And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Let’s go down to verse 15, Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it. And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die. 

Ok, let’s go to chapter 3, verse 1, Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, Has God indeed said, You shall not eat of every tree of the garden? And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden; but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die. Then the serpent said to the woman, You will not surely die. For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil. So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings. The Tree of Life was in the midst of the Garden, and God said they could freely eat of it, but after they believed the lie and sinned, they were driven out of the Garden, and they were cut off from eternal life. 

Let’s go to Luke 13:1, There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And Jesus answered and said to them, Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. Jesus clearly stated twice in these verses that unless you repent, you will perish. Many preachers are declaring from their pulpits in these days that if you believe in Jesus, all your sins are forgiven; past, present, and future. Jesus said, Unless you repent, you shall perish.

The Apostle John said, in 1 John 1:9, If we confess our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we have sinned in the past, and we will not repent and confess our sin to Him, we will die in our sins. If we are sinning in the present, and we will not repent, we will die in our sins. If we sin in the future, and will not repent, we will die in our sins. If we die in our sins, we will not inherit the Kingdom of God. 

When you confess your sin to Him, in true repentance, He forgives you, and He cleanses you in the Blood of Jesus, through faith in His sacrifice, of that sin. When you bring it to God in repentance, the Blood of Jesus is applied to you, and it atones for that sin, and you are forgiven. If you do not repent, it is not applied, and you are still in your sin. If you die in your sin, you will be judged according to that sin, and you will pay an eternal price for it, very possibly in eternal torment in the Lake of Fire, where there is no rest, day and night, forever and ever.

The Son of God loved you and gave Himself upon the Cross to take away your sins. If you will not repent; if you reject His Words, you will die in your sins, and there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Rom 2 says, Tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man that does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Gentile, but glory, honor and peace to every man that works good, to the Jew first and also to the Gentile. For there is no respect of persons with God. Verse 12, For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law. You say that you are not under the law but under grace, and all your sins are covered by the Blood of Jesus. If you have sinned, without the Law, and you will not come to Jesus and repent of your sin, you will be judged for that sin. Your sins are covered when you repent and confess your sin to God. And also you must repent to your brother or sister if you have sinned against them. If we would judge ourselves, the Scripture says, we would not be judged. We judge ourselves by the Word of God and the Holy Spirit.

Rom 8:4, …the righteousness of the Law is fulfilled in us who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Verse 12, Therefore, brethren, we are debtors—not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. The devil says the same lie to Christians as he said to Eve, You will not surely die. Did God say that?  You better believe He said that! Adam and Eve sinned and they died spiritually; they were cut off from eternal life, just as God said to them, In the day you eat thereof, you shall surely die.

Gal 5:16,  I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 

For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 

envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. If you live after the flesh; if you do the works of the flesh, and will not repent, you shall surely die. 

If you die in your sins, you will be judged for those sins, and you are in danger of eternal damnation.

God does not want that for you. It is written in His Word that He is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance and to the knowledge of the truth.

He loves you so much that He gave His only begotten sinless Son upon the Cross to save you from your sins, so that, through repentance and faith toward Him, you might be saved from them and inherit eternal life with Him in His Kingdom. But if you reject His truth, you will continue in darkness and you will perish. In John chapter 3, verse 19, Jesus said, And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God. In 1 John 1, the Apostle John said, God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him and walk in darkness, we lie and do no the truth. But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the Blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all unrighteousness. Jesus said, in Matthew 7, Therefore, whoever hears these sayings of mine and does them, I will liken him to a wise man that built his house upon a rock. 

False grace is the lie: You shall not surely die. People, like Eve, receive the lie, and they die. Other people, like Adam, receive the lie from someone who has eaten it, and they die. Rom 6:15, What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not! Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one's slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness? 

Let’s go to 2 Thess 2:7,  For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. Do you believe the lie? Repent and cry out to God to deliver you from the strong delusion and grant you mercy to believe the truth and be saved from the wrath of God to come. 

Interpretation of a message in tongues:

I am God Almighty. Those of you that are listening to My servant Rob: harken diligently to these Words! I love you; I formed you in your mother’s womb for My purpose, says the Lord. Turn back to Me! Turn away from your sins! Do not believe the lie! If you will not repent and come to Me, you will perish, says the Lord.
