  • The 14 plagues of the great tribulation

    The 14 plagues of the great tribulation
    2026/01/02
    (This podcast was previously published on February 9, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... The scientists and other people often try to figure out why something is happening. Maybe what they are seeing are plagues of the great tribulation. Will you recognize those plagues when you see them if you are still on this earth at that time? At one point, 1/3 of the creatures in the sea died! People will say, "What happened? Why did everything in the sea die?" The scientists will surely go about trying to find out what killed the creatures in that sea. (Plague #2) "Why do we have all this increase in locust? Why are these locust attacking humans? Is this a new strain of locust?" (Plague #5) A noisome (smelly) and terrible sore came upon some men on this earth and they will suffer greatly as a result of this sore on their bodies. "Why did this come upon some men and not on other men? What is this? How did this happen? How do we get rid of this? Can we develop a vaccination to stop this?" (Plague #8) Every living soul in the sea died! (Plague #9) The heat upon the world increased greatly. Men were scorched with great heat! Climate control? (Plague #11) The greatest earthquake ever measured by man crossed the earth and the cities of the nations fell! Every island disappeared and the mountains were gone. "What is going on?" (Plague #14) Daniel 12:1-2 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. 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. ***** On January 28, 2021, a report came on CNN saying 700 Pelicans were found dead. I thought of how men would scurry about trying to find out what happened. And I wondered how greatly these men of this world will trouble themselves when God looses the 14 plagues of the great tribulation upon this earth. Revelation 8, 9, 16 Man has to have a reason for everything. Concerning the great tribulation that is to come, the prophet Amos said: Amos 5:18-20 Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light. As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him. Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it? One trouble comes after another. *** Jesus says: Matthew 24:21-22 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. We have seen Coronavirus over the entire earth in 2020 and onward. Coronavirus is likely one of the pestilences that comes before the great tribulation. There are 14 plagues of the great tribulation. After these plagues, God will shake the heavens and the earth. Then comes the sign of the son of man in the heavens and Jesus sends out the angels to gather the elect from off this earth. We know these things, because Jesus tells us this in the NT Bible. Matthew 24:29-31 Jesus says: Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And HE shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. After this, God destroys the heaven and the earth with fire. II Peter 3:10-14 10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, ...

  • If you want to glorify God, then share God's views of the issues pertaining to this life

    If you want to glorify God, then share God's views of the issues pertaining to this life
    2026/01/01
    (This podcast was previously published on February 22, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Jesus said: John 16:13 Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever HE shall hear (from God), that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come. Jesus says: 14 HE shall glorify ME: for HE shall receive of Mine, and shall shew it unto you. We glorify ourselves when we speak our own ideas and our own opinions. We glorify God when we share God's Word and those things told us by God's Spirit. I've found the majority of church people do not want to hear that which God has said and that which God has done. They want to praise their pastors and other humans. I Corinthians 2 1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and HIM crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. 13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. ***** Concerning homosexuals and lesbians: God's views: Romans 1:26-28 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 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; *** Concerning divorce and remarriage, God's views: Matthew 5:32 Jesus said: But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery. - The divorced woman who remarries commits adultery but her husband who divorced a faithful wife is the cause of her adultery. - The man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery. I Corinthians 7:10-11 And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. I Corinthians 7:39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord. Mark 10 2 And the Pharisees came to HIM, and asked HIM, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting HIM. 3 And HE answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you? 4 And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away. 5 And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept. 6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. 7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; 8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. 9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. 10 And in the house HIS disciples asked HIM again of the same matter. 11 And HE saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. 12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery. Romans 7:1-3 1 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? 2 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. 3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man. *** Concerning fornication, God's views: I Corinthians 6 15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? ...

    What it will be like in the great tribulation?
    2025/12/31
    (This podcast was previously published on February 3, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... The prophet Amos tells us this: Amos 5:18-20 Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light. 19 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him. 20 Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it? After Jesus opens the 7th seal on the book in Revelation 8, seven angels were given trumpets, and when each of these angels sounded their trumpet, a "woe" was loosed upon this earth. Revelation 8:6-7 And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound. 7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up. 14 plagues from God are loosed upon this earth during the great tribulation. (Revelation 8, 9, 16) Matthew 24:29-31 Jesus says: Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And HE shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

  • Are you willing to give up everything to hold onto one small portion of one verse of scripture?

    Are you willing to give up everything to hold onto one small portion of one verse of scripture?
    2025/12/30
    (This podcast was previously published on February 8, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... The apostle Paul says: Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. Will we really pay the price for sharing one small portion of one verse of scripture? such as: * The man who marries the divorced woman commits adultery. Matthew 5:32 * The divorced woman commits adultery if she remarries. Matthew 5:32; I Corinthians 7:39; Romans 7:1-3 ***** One compromise of a small verse of scripture, and antichrist moves into your life. Antichrist comes into the churches: II Thessalonians 2 KJV 3-4 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; (falling away: falling away from even one small portion of one verse of scripture) Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. NASB 6-8 And you know what restrains him now, so that he will be revealed in his time. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is removed. 8 Then that lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will eliminate with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming; (That which restrains antichrist is scripture. When churches remove one small portion of scripture the restraint is removed with the scripture, for it was scripture holding antichrist back.) God judges the churches who have fallen away from some scripture: KJV 10-12 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. ***** Mark 8:36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? *** Matthew 7:13-14 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. *** Paul gave up everything to speak the truth of God to the church. And because of this everyone left him. But Paul finished his course anyway. Here Paul writes to Timothy: II Timothy 4 1 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom; 2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry. 6 For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. 7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: 8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love His appearing. 9 Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me: 10 For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia. 11 Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry. 16 At my first answer no man stood with me, but all men forsook me: I pray God that it may not be laid to their charge. 17 Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. 18 And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto HIS heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever.

  • The order of events that come at the end of this world

    The order of events that come at the end of this world
    2025/12/29
    (This podcast was previously published on February 1, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... In the Bible, Jesus tells us what we can expect to see at the end of this world if we are still on this earth. First the great tribulation comes from God. (Revelation 8, 9, 16) Matthew 24:29-31 Jesus says: 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And HE shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. ***** Jesus comes to raise the dead in Christ: I Thessalonians 4: 13-17 13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep (dead), that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with HIM. 15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent (precede) them which are asleep. 16 For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words. *** We are changed into our spiritual bodies and removed from these fleshly bodies: I Corinthians 15:48-52 48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. 49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. 50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. 51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. *** Jesus takes us to the new heaven and the new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness: Revelation 21:1-5 1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. 2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and HE will dwell with them, and they shall be HIS people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God. 4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. 5 And HE that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. *** God destroys this present heaven and earth: II Peter 3:10-14 10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. 14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless. 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

    The Bible is full of treasures showing the way of life for us
    2025/12/28
    (This podcast was previously published on October 2, 2024) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... In two verses in John, Jesus explains the working of the Holy Spirit. John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. John 16:13 Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever HE shall hear (from God), that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come. 4 things the Holy Spirit who lives in us does for us: - teaches us all things - reminds us of all that Jesus has said to us - guides us into all truth - shows us things to come Matthew 11:28-30 (Jesus says) Come unto ME, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take MY yoke upon you, and learn of ME; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For MY yoke is easy, and MY burden is light. 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog

  • The devil tries to get us but God draws us back!

    The devil tries to get us but God draws us back!
    2025/12/27
    (This podcast was previously published on February 18, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Some days I find I'm not interested in reading anything spiritual. But I decide to read some of our blog or the writing on the Podcast. And I start to be interested and by the time I finish reading those scriptures that are presented, I am restored again. I Corinthians 1:21 ... it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. Recently the thought came to me that I'm not really called by Jesus to be HIS minister, that I got it all wrong, and then I was reminded of the times after I was born again when I was taken into heaven. It was in the night while I was sleeping. I was "transported" into heaven. I was with God, and Christ, and the Holy Spirit. (I saw no images it was spiritual.) At that time I was merged into the body of Jesus, made one with the Word of God, God and Holy Spirit witnessing. A few nights later, the exact same thing happened again. As I thought on those experiences, I was restored and knew it had been a devil trying to cause me to doubt, for I believe I was ordained into the ministry offices when I was merged into the body of Jesus in heaven those two times. The devil will try to convince us the way we are going is not the right way. But then God will restore us by the Holy Spirit who reminds us of the way of God. Often we are restored by an exhortation. Hebrews 3:13-14 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; Hebrews 10:25-26 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, I present to you daily exhortations because these two verses tell me to do this. And notice Hebrews 10:25 tells us to exhort one another even more as we see the day of the Lord approaching. For God uses these exhortations to keep us in HIS way in the midst of the wickedness that surrounds us in this present world. ***** Renew your minds to the Word of God: * Matthew 5:32 Jesus says:But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery. - The divorced woman who remarries will commit adultery but her husband who divorced "the faithful wife" will be the cause of her adultery when she remarries. - The man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery. *** * I Corinthians 7:10-11 And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband:and let not the husband put away his wife. *** * I Corinthians 7:39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord. *** * Mark 10 2 And the Pharisees came to Him (to Jesus), and asked Him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting Him. 3 And HE answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you? 4 And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away. 5 And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept. 6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. 7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; 8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. 9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. 10 And in the house His disciples asked Him again of the same matter. 11 And HE saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. 12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery. *** * Romans 7:1-3 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? 2 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. 3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man. **** * I Corinthians 6 15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make ...

  • From heaven Jesus sets up the New Testament Church

    From heaven Jesus sets up the New Testament Church
    2025/12/26
    (This podcast was previously published on January 30, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... We had no New Testament church until after Jesus was crucified. Then the blood of Jesus became the sacrifice for our sins. And after Jesus arose from the dead and was taken into heaven, then Jesus set up HIS church from heaven, calling and naming HIS ministers from heaven. The apostle Paul was an example of this calling of a minister by Jesus from heaven. Acts 26, Paul says to king Agrippa: I heard a voice (from heaven) speaking to me in the Hebrew tongue. 15 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; Jesus, from heaven, sets HIS ministers into the New Testament church today just as HE did from heaven in the case of the apostle Paul. After Jesus arose into heaven, HE (Jesus) gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: (Ephesians 4:10-11) And the New Testament Bible was given to the church from heaven as apostles were inspired by God to speak and write the books of the New Testament. II Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: The early church had no New Testament Bible. The apostles wrote on "parchments" and sent these letters to the churches in various cities and countries. These letters became the "epistles" in the New Testament Bible as the instructions from God came to them. They sent these epistles to be circulated among the various churches in their areas. Colossians 4:16 And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the epistle from Laodicea. So they passed these epistles, which we know today in the New Testament Bible, from church to church. These writings were inspired by God just as God inspires us today to write the blog and to record the words presented on Podcasts. Man does not appoint himself as a minister to the church. All ministers (apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers) are called by Jesus from heaven and are lead by the Spirit of God in that which they speak to the church. ***** In my life, the call of God came to me as God chose to transport me into heaven in the night as I was sleeping. (This happened twice on two different nights as I slept) I was "transported" into heaven in approximately 1975. I was with God and Christ and the Holy Spirit. (I saw no physical images. It was a spiritual experience) At that time I was "merged" into the body of Jesus, made one with the Word of God as God and the Holy Spirit witnessed. The second time this happened was about two days after the first. I didn't know what this meant. I thought it happened to all persons who were born again. Later I came to realize it did not happen to every member of the body of Christ. I believe it was at this time, I was set into the ministry in the two offices appointed by Jesus: apostle & prophet For the next 4 years God taught me spiritual things from the Bible by HIS Spirit. I was born again in 1975. God put me on radio to exhort the church starting in January, 1980. In between these years of 1975 and January, 1980, God was teaching me from the Bible, both Old and New Testaments, by HIS Spirit. On the night of January 10, 1980, I was asleep in the night. A very loud trumpet like voice spoke 3 words in my ear: "Hartford, Seattle, KWJS" KWJS was a radio station. God told me to call the station manager. I sent audition tape and was broadcasting exhortation to the church within 5 days. By the end of the next year, I was on radio from "Hartford" to "Seattle". Ministers are called by Jesus from heaven and set in the church today to do the work of the ministry. Jesus communicates with me directly by the following: thoughts brought by HIS Spirit, dreams, scriptures, I Corinthians 12:4-6 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. God calls HIS ministers and teaches them in various ways, but there is always a "call of God" on the life of that minister who is appointed by Jesus for the NT church. But some ministers put themselves into the ministry by going to Bible college without having the call of God and these are "false teachers." II Peter 2 1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be ...
