Chapter 6: The Heart of an Apostle

Page 35

As I write, I will quote from God’s Word. You, yourself, will have to

decide if you will OBEY what God has already provided to you in simple sixth grade language that all can understand. If you want to judge my apostleship, then judge the totality of this book and its conformance to the written word of God.

Today, I would die upside down on a cross before forsaking my God. For that matter, I would die upside down on a cross before forsaking my brother Jesus Christ. Yes, Jesus Christ is NOT my God. He is my brother

and he is a brother to all who do God’s will. Like Paul, Christ is “my hope in whom I live for God.” [1 Timothy 1:1] Think about Apostle Paul’s words.

The denial of the words of Christ by the truth squad at Thursday night’s Bible study was the final straw for me. That is when I stood up and

looked at the young men and told them:

“I will tell you something that only an apostle will tell you. If you refuse to accept the words of Christ, you do not

belong to God and His Spirit is not inside of you.” Edward

I tell you the same thing. You cannot dismiss or otherwise explain away the words of Jesus Christ simply because it inconveniently contradicts

your Christian theology. Why? It’s because Jesus represented God in everything he said and did. It was not God in the flesh in the likeness of Jesus; it was God using His human begotten Son Jesus as His spokesperson.

“Then said Jesus unto them, when ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.” John 8:28 KJV

“I must work the works of Him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.” John 9:4 KJV

Jesus spoke for God and did only what God told him to do.
