Fancy Satin Robes
©copyright 2005 Bonita M Quesinberry
Portentously they stand above thee behind God's pulpit,
dressed in Armani or fancy satin robes.
They preen, prance and dance whilst vile words they sputter, spew and spit,
like one pointing a loaded gun at their flocks.
By lead's rusty poison they guide their own to the slaughter,
duly training them by man's law in Christ's Name;
slyly never admitting, "Before God, ye shall falter
then fall into a pit of fire and brimstone
designed for thee and our father, his whore and her daughters."
Did not Apostle John reveal the keys to God's Kingdom?
God's Precepts and Christ-like faith: two there be was his wisdom.
When will ye understand Christ's words, "Out of the mouth of babes?"
When will ye listen to these not taught by man?
For the Spirit-tutored speak by God's mouth and perfect praise;
in obeying all God's Law, they know His things
and see past earth's veil of illusion to reality.
Yet, ye bicker and dispute thy Maker's Word;
unwavering, ye are set to avoid eternity.
Ye love death: thus, God strikes thee with thine own fears.
In the end, ye shall be forgotten to infinity.
Did not Apostle John reveal the keys to God's Kingdom?
God's Precepts and Christ-like faith: two there be was his wisdom.
To live, why wouldst thee not turn away from man's vile teachers,
their doctrines from hearts full of envy and lust?
Behold, ye pay for the wealth of thine unholy preachers.
Ye hast not kept My Law and ye must repent;
that ye couldst obey all God's Doctrine thus ye not perish.
Why wouldst thee not receive the blessings therein,
rather than be cursed because Twelve ye refused to cherish?
Oh, ye blind fools! Blinded fools lead thee about;
yet, ye grovel and pay manna to gray light, hence garish.
Did not Apostle John reveal the keys to God's Kingdom?
God's Precepts and Christ-like faith: two there be was his wisdom.

Hey, my Deb! Thank you for such encouragement; and, yes, Katrina and I have spoken on the phone as well as many messages here at A/P. I do believe she is anointed and definitely sealed. Yoohoo! I wish there were more like her here at A/P. Alas, I wasn't back for a month when the attacks began all over again; but, the Holy Spirit is being very selective about what He will allow me to post at this place these days.
It is shouting time! And I will be sooo glad when we look up to see our Lord moving across the skies and snatching us up out of this place.
Tons of luve and hugs, SisBon

Satin Robes...
won't get anyone into His Kingdom or Eternity! Bravo Bonnie. This is full of oomph & gusto, zeal for His Word! The Word is our saving grace & many don't have eyes to see or ears to hear! All the best in the Contest.

Very good! Words are only pointers and open to misinterpretation. We must go within and ask God ourselves for clarification.
-
Yes, it is not about man's way of dressing to honor God, is what His grace does to have us worthy of the eternal robe we will inherit. Again well spoken, shared and written. Blessings.

Thank you, darling daughter, for the kind comments. Hope you are doing well!

You speak truth. All these shady pastors today that preach about self esteem. When did we stop esteeming Yahuwah and start esteeming our own wretchedness? We are wretched, we are wicked and we did nothing to deserve what He did for us. We did nothing to earn the Messiah drinking the wrath of the Father for us, yet He did. How much we take it for granted. How easy it is to speak of the death of Christ like it was nothing. People don't unerstand that the bible is not just a bunch of stories to read. It is a true book of happenings. Thank you for this.

Thank you so much, Katrina, for the encouraging words in agreement. At the time I wrote this, the night before I had watched a bit of TBN; the preacher was prancing around on the podium telling the people how to "speak in an unknown tongue," just say "blah, blah, blah and sooner or later you will get it!" -- quite a show and nothing more. Then, I'd seen a bit of that man who has the huge gatherings and does healings: when he touched this one woman and she did not fall down, he pushed her again; still she stood. Finally, he pushed again and said, "Fall down!" It is all show and drama and "give me your money." They depend on hysteria to convince their flocks the Holy Spirit is upon them. Sad, so sad.
Much love & hugs, BonnieQ

Reminds me of Benny Hinn and his sweaty jacket. They say they are slain by the spirit, but I say thrown by a devil. All you have to do is read scripture to know that the Holy Spirit would not make you lose the ability to control yourself and flop you around. Ridiculous. However, a young boy that Yahushua healed was thrown by a devil so bad, that once Yahushua casted the devil out, He had to heal him. It is all show. We are not even under the ordinances of the law, yet the same pastors that teach you that will dig into Malachi and tell you to tithe. Either we are under the law, or we are not. They talk of having your best life now, when any true follower knows we lay this life down to gain the best life later. We cannot have the best of both worlds. We are required to make a choice. Many accuse me of claiming salvation by works. Not so, I could never keep the ten commandments to perfection. However, I love Him enough to do my best and ask boldly for grace where I fall short. People say don't keep the Sabbath, it was abolished at the cross, but what of Hebrews chapter four? What of the patience of the saints being those who KEEP the commandments of Yahuwah AND the faith of Yahushua Ha Mashiyach? What of the soon coming sunday law where we will be forced to attend their sunday synagogues of satan? So many will be decieved into thinking it is a good thing. We don't keep the commandments to be saved, we keep them because His grace first draws us to Him and His Spirit enpowers us to grow up in that grace. To deny such is to have a form of godliness, but deny it's power.

Benny Hinn was who I was referring to
Couldn't think of his name in that moment You know, Daniel told us exactly what would be hung on the cross: the ordinance of sacrifice, for Jesus became the ultimate sacrifice in as much as the blood of an animal would not cleanse man.
Regarding an expected Federal Blue Law: what most people do not know is that every State in the Union has blue laws on the books, which still remain enforceable by capital punishment. AND, there is no need for a Federal Blue Law in that there is a little known Fed. Law that grants the Federal government the right to enforce all State Laws without a specific Federal Law in place. So, the effort to get a Federal Blue Law passed, which lobbying has been done for years by the Great Whore, is nothing more than a smoke screen to deceive true believers into thinking the time is not yet because a Fed Law has not been passed.
As for forcing us to attend their churches on Sunday, no that will not happen. The force of the Blue Laws is based on working on Sunday and no buying and selling: this latter being the economical crunch for Sabbatarians== 5 days to earn while Sunday keepers have 6 days to earn. Since most Sabbath keepers will at least work at home on Sunday, this is where they would get nailed by the Blue Laws: the same as in colonial America, during which time Sabbatarians were beaten, jailed, or hung for having been caught doing labor on Sunday. Even George Washington was stopped for riding his horse more than a mile to get to church: the Blue Laws provide only 1 mile to travel for Sunday services.
I point people to Hebrews c.4 all the time and tell them to explain that one away. They can't; rather, they simply come up with another obscure verse to claim the day does not matter. What they don't realize is that the 4th Commandment IS the Seal of the One True Living God: without that seal, recognized by behaviour, a person will not enter the gates of heaven. So, it is quite logical that the great whore and her harlot daughters would want the world to believe that the Sabbath belongs only to the Jews; which begs the question, "Then why did Jesus teach that the gentiles who follow Him become Jews by adoption?"
Talk about stupidity: the teaching that the mark of the beast is 666. If they would read that Revelation passage again, they would find OR OR OR: it is just another tool for identifying the beast, or Great Whore as it were. You know, Uriah Smith spent over 30 years interpreting Daniel and Revelation; however, because of the era in which he lived he could only carry it accurately up to Phildelphia, leaving Phildelphia and Laodicea vague.
This is where the Holy Spirit said I was to complete the interpretation: Phildelphia and Laodicea church ages. For the sake of Logic, however, the book He had me pen begins at the beginning and goes through all the church ages, the 1000 years in heaven, the utter destruction of the wicked and Satan, and the restoration. Thus, I spent another 30 years of Spirit led research/study and 5 years in the writing-- imagine! A Total of 65 years to totally interpret Revelation, which takes the entire Bible. What amazed me, however, is how incredibly logical all of it is, logical and without flaw.
Man's interpretations are filled with illogic and numerous flaws and has 90% of the Christian world marked twice dead. Aaaaaargh! Oh, how it angers me when I hear some of those TBN preachers telling the people how it's going to come to a conclusion.
Speaking of Commandments: I don't know how many times I have told people, "I don't keep the Commandments because I believe they will save me! I keep them because I love the Lord and I love His Law. God said, "I will create a perfect man and he will love my law and those who follow him will love my law. Then I add, the Bible states plainly that Jesus died for our "past" sins, and if we sin thereafter knowingly, then "there is no further atonement, for Jesus hung on the cross only once."
So, if He died for our "past" sins, then His statement, "Go and sin no more," makes perfect sense: we are required to obey. If not, then why in Revelation does the Lord say three (3) times "those who obey God's Commandments and have the faith of and in Jesus" will enter the gates of heaven."
Having a background in law, I also add that every month law offices receive a box that is approximately 20" square filled to the brim with onionskin pages of new and altered laws to be added to the various law books in their law librarys. Our esteemed Federal and State governments add about 20,000 new laws to the books every month: that is 240,000 laws every year in addition to what was already on the books since this nation's inception.
Well, I suppose I'd better close this for now. If I were a betting person, I would wager that you could talk about God and His Word 24/7, just as I can. Anyway, I must have gotten pretty wordy because my Internet connection hung up on me! Good thing I realized it and copied this before redialing.
Tons of luv & hugs, BonQ

This is what I have been trying to tell people. Hebrews four clearly states that if there was another day Yahushua would have given another day. URGH! Many people claim they have no choice but to work on Saturday, therefore, they claim grace for that commandment. Where were we told we could choose?
You are correct about the fact that I could talk about Him 24/7. Aside from you, there are not many who believe like I do. I wish there were more in my area. You know the Tablets of Stone were placed INSIDE the ark of the testament and in Revelation 11:18-19 it starts speaking of the judgement:
18And 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.
19And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple THE ARK OF HIS TESTAMENT: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
Now, see why would He pull out the ark of the testament while we are standing at judgement? They will still tear this down. It is frustrating, because for so long people made me doubt what I was learning. I don't anymore, for there is no place for doubt and fear.
I watched a youtube video earlier where the person said they were throwing down the Ten Commandments and smashing them on the golden calf we Sabbatarians worship. When I explained, in love of course, that without the law we don't what to repent for and therefore, we should fear Yahuwah enough not to speak of smashing His law. There was no response as of yet. For what is sin, but the transgression of the law. I think so much confusion comes to folks, because the ordinances and the commandments were both translated as law.
For instance, in one place Paul states we are not justified by the law, yet in another he states that we are. If you don't know the original greek it can seem contradictary.
What do know of the feasts? Are we still to keep those, or are those considered ordinances of the ceremonial law?
