• HE hath made us accepted in the beloved. (Ephesians 1:6)
    2025/12/03
    (This podcast was previously published on January 15, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Remember when you were born again? All of a sudden, God by HIS Spirit opened our eyes to see our sin and we believed and were saved by faith in HIM. We didn't do works to earn salvation. It was a gift to us. After that, we read the Bible and believed the Word and were changed into the image of Jesus, The Word, as we believed. II Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. Being born again is all about change. The old man is passed away. All things become new. We are different now! And the remainder of our life on this earth we are conformed to the image of Christ the Word as we encounter issues of this life and settle those issues by learning what God wants us to do about each thing that comes to us. The apostle Paul says: Galatians 1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. Now we, too, are servants of God as is the apostle Paul. And we seek to please God in our decisions by prayer, asking God what HE wants us to do, and by following that brought to our minds by God's Spirit, The Holy Spirit. Our life becomes hidden to this world but we become alive to God and our lives are hidden in Christ as we follow the Word of God, conforming ourselves to HIS Word. And we know this is all that matters. 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

  • Ministers of Satan spoken of by Jesus, Paul, Peter, and Jude in the Bible
    2025/12/02
    (This podcast was previously published on January 7, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Jesus warned us about the last days when false ministers and false Christians would come in HIS name deceiving many: Matthew 24 3 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? 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. (Ministers and individuals in churches will come saying "Jesus is Lord" and because they say that, many will accept them and they will deceive "many".) Paul calls them "angels of light": II Corinthians 11 2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. 12 But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we. 13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. The apostle Peter says: 2 Peter 2 1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not. 12 But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption; 13 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; 14 Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children: 15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; 16 But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet. 17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. 18 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. 19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. 20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. 22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. ***** Jude 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. 4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. (They deny Jesus as they explain away "The Word" who is Jesus.) 12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, ...

  • Many love the outward appearance of religion, but they do not have a love for the Word of God
    2025/12/01
    (This podcast was previously published on January 14, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... This is the first time I recall having the Spirit of God "dictate" to me the title of a writing or Podcast. Yet this was spoken in exact words to me as I wrote down the title. Then I received the message by the Spirit of God. It is amazing, but so many hundreds of thousands of people love their church buildings and they love the stained glass windows in their buildings and they love the art works and carved alters where their ministers preach ... but they do not have a love for the actual Word of God. We, who are of God, delight in the Word of God. The apostle Paul told us: II Timothy 3 1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. *** The only thing that matters in our religion is this: Do we delight in the Word of God? 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

  • In their hearts, people "boasted" over that which they would do "next year". Then Coronavirus came!
    2025/11/30
    (This podcast was previously published on January 9, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... James 3 13 Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: 14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. 15 For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that. 16 But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil. And what is that which is coming? * The great tribulation of God: The 14 plagues (Rev. 8, 9, 16) * God shakes the power of heaven before Jesus comes through the clouds: (Mt. 24:29) * Then comes Jesus and gathers HIS elect, removing them from this earth. (Mt 24:30-31) * Last, God destroys this present heaven and earth. (II Peter 3:10-14) By thinking on these assured things, boasts concerning what we will do in the future might change considerably. Also those things we thought to be so important might diminish greatly as we think on that which is coming according to the Bible. 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

  • When GOD turns them over to a strong delusion
    2025/11/29
    (This podcast was previously published on January 11, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Sometimes we meet a church goer who is totally irrational to the truth. Even when facts from the Bible are presented to him he insists on clinging to that which is taught at his church group. Why can't he repent? Why does he continue to hold to a lie? The answer to this is in II Thessalonians 2. These people were once enlightened to the truth from God but then "fell away" and chose to go with another doctrine which was opposite to doctrines of Christ in the Bible. In such cases we see the following: II Thessalonians 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. When God sends that person "a strong delusion" there is nothing we can do to make that person understand even when we present many godly exhortations, for that person has been deluded by God. We just have to walk away and leave him alone. Acts 28 24 And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not. 25 And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers, 26 Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive: 27 For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. ***** Even when all of the plagues of the great tribulation come to this earth, none of the wicked will understand but the wise will understand. Daniel 12 1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. 2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. 3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. 10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand. Revelation 9 20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: 21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts. Revelation 16 10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, 11 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds. 21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great. John 8 Jesus says: 43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. 44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. John 12 37 But though HE had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on Him: 38 That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed? 39 Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again, 40 HE (God) hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. God turns them over to "a reprobate mind" because they refuse to keep the "knowledge of the truth of God" before their minds. Romans 1 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, ...

  • Paul, called to be an apostle
    2025/11/28
    (This podcast was previously published on January 5, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... When did the New Testament church begin? How did the church become established? There was no New Testament church when Jesus walked on this earth in the form of a man. There was only the synagogue of the Jews. As HE lived on this earth, Jesus appointed 12 apostles to be His disciples, including Judas who betrayed HIM. After Jesus was resurrected, the 11 apostles selected 2 men over which they drew lots to see who would replace Judas. Acts 1:26 And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles. (So Matthias became the 12th apostle.) As this was happening, Paul (Saul) was busy persecuting the followers of Jesus. From heaven Jesus called Paul and spoke to Paul making Paul an apostle. Paul tells us this story in Acts 26 as he testified before king Agrippa. Acts 26:9-19 I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth. Which thing I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I gave my voice against them. And I punished them oft in every synagogue, and compelled them to blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even unto strange cities. 12 Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests, 13 At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me. 14 And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. 16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee; 17 Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, 18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in ME. 19 Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision: So where does Paul fit in the church? They already have 12 apostles. Here is the story of the New Testament church and our calling today as "saints". 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

  • When a minister teaches another man's work
    2025/11/27
    (This podcast was previously published on December 4, 2020) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Recently when a man came to me identifying himself as a "pastor", he said he needed a projector to be able to share my teachings with his church. I told him, "Just teach Bible." (This man was trying to get me to buy a projector for him and send it to him in the Philippines. I live in USA.) The apostle Paul spoke to the people that which God had given to him to speak. Paul said he spoke by the "grace" God gave to him. Paul didn't copy other men's works nor build on the works of other men. Paul shared with the church that which God had given to him. The apostle Paul said: Romans 15 15 Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly unto you in some sort, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me of God, 18 For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed, 20 Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:

  • Where there is envy and strife, there is confusion and every evil work (James 3:16)
    2025/11/26
    (This podcast was previously published on January 12, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... One of the works of the flesh of man is "emulations" (Galatians 5:20). It is the nature of man to exalt himself above other people. People do this in different ways. By physical appearance, by achievements, by the clothes worn ... It is natural for us to do this one way or another. The apostle Paul says: They that do these things will not inherit the kingdom of God. (I Corinthians 6:9-10 and Galatians 5:19-21) We once did these things but now we are born again, given by God HIS Spirit, so we learn to go another way. Galatians 5:22-25 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. In 1960, I moved to Dallas, Texas, to be orchestra director at Kimball High School. One of the high school teachers invited me to go to a college football game. I was shocked that anyone actually chose to do this. In college, I played in the band and we were forced to go to football until after the halftime performance and then they let us leave. My friends and I left! The teacher at Kimball said, "It only costs $6." I replied, "You mean you pay to go?" For the next 60 years I hated the opposing team and was a fan. Then God began to wean me away and modify my life in this activity. We learn the way of this world. Then the Spirit of God pulls us away from that way and takes us another way. And in the end we come to see all that matters is God's way. And we then feel sorry for those who are trapped in the ways of this world. But we are very grateful to God that HE showed us the truth. ***** Philippians 2:5-7 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made Himself of no reputation, I once played duplicate bridge. At the bridge center, as my partner and I were trying to beat the other people, I often thought of Jesus and Paul. I couldn't imagine them doing what I was doing. I asked God to get me loose from this. God did. God answers our prayers when they are according to the will of God. (I John 5:13-15) *** The apostle Paul was very highly skilled in the Jew's religious, even above many other men: I Corinthians 3:3-10 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: 5 Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6 Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 And be found in HIM, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 That I may know HIM, and the power of HIS resurrection, and the fellowship of HIS sufferings, being made conformable unto HIS death; (I used to pray verse 10 over myself frequently. God was pleased to answer that prayer also!) *** Like Paul, God changes us day by day into the image of Jesus as we are given the Word and as we make adjustments which are appropriate to the Word. I Corinthians 15:30-31 And why stand we in jeopardy every hour? I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily. (We die "to self" as God calls to our attention an adjustment which we need to make to that which we have been doing on this earth.) On January 4, 2021, I realized it would be better for me to make a change in our Podbean heading and instead of identifying myself as Jesus Ministries, Dr. Joan Boney, I now identify myself by the following: Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney, called to be an apostle and prophet of Jesus Christ according to Ephesians 4:11-12. Although I do have an earned doctorate, the important thing for anyone to know about me is that I am called by God for the work of apostle and prophet. (No doubt this identification will bring me some shame and even persecution from church goers.) 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations blog
