               The Holy Bible Is The Immutable  Living Word Of The Eternal God. 
                 
        
The Only Bible we Recommend Is The King James / A.V. Bible.

         Here’s the reason, shocking but enlightening truth:  The Bible Is Used To Deceive



                           
We should all be sighing and crying about the sad state of our world.

                         

                

 

                                                         

      Leviticus 26:17 

      And I will set my face against you,            and ye shall be slain before your enemies:

      they that hate you shall reign over you;  and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.

      Ezekiel 20:26 ……

      that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I am the LORD.

                                         A Message From Peter James 

                  

                                 Discipline

                Those who won’t hear will feel.

      

       This is a sort of translation of what my mother used to tell me.

       This was never a good thing to hear, because it most likely would be followed

        by a sound thrashing.  

 

        Today we are precisely at this point in the history of the world.

        Most of our leaders act like spoilt undisciplined children.

        Their deeds betray their upbringing.

        Instead of just taking their ball and going home because they have some disagreement,

        they are not satisfied to lie but they even kill to get their own way.      

       

        We have refused to hear, therefore a severe spanking has already started

        taking place.  I use the biblical word ‘Judgment’.

 

         Rather than listening to and obeying the Eternal God, we have universally made

         the freewill choice to do things our own way.

         We bluntly refuse to accept, that whatever it takes, we will learn the lessons

         of listening to and obeying the Eternal God.          

         

         Now we are reaping the rewards of our rebellion.

 

         I really cannot begin to imagine what judgment awaits our political,

         and religious leaders, who have tortured and killed not just their own people,

         but also those whom they classify as their enemies.

        They must truly be the spawn of Satan himself.

        They must have been evil as children, and furthermore even taught to be evil.

 

         John 8:44  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.

 

         It is an interesting fact that the humans, who serve Satan, the ultimate rebel,

         are severely punished, if they dare to disobey  him in the slightest.

         See Emmanuel Eni’s:  Delivered from the powers of Darkness.  

 

         In the UK all sorts of are being tried to resolve the problems of dealing

         with difficult children.

 

         We have failed to punish our children, as we have been commanded to do,

         and as a result now we are being punished.

         We run to our churches, and the situation does not get any better,

         but rather it gets decidedly worse, as we prefer the false promises, and the soft words,

         from our weekly fix, that is if we go to services at all.

 

         Isaiah 30:9  That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear

         the law of the LORD:

Isaiah 30:10  Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets,

Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:

      

         Sadly our church and political leaders carry on as if all is well.  

   

         Today, if we hit our children to bring them in to order, in many countries,

         we will be prosecuted.

        

        We now live in a world which  is stalked by violence.

        Recently in the U.K. some high ranking police officer said that it was ok to go out at night.

        That was a revelation to most people.

        Never mind going out at night, many are afraid to go out during the day.

        Walking past some hooded teenagers or adults can be quite disconcerting.

 

         What about confronting some violent people, and having a go?

 

        Today September 2nd 2008, people are being urged to have a go, and not just rely

        on the police.

        This is so absurd it is unbelievable.

        The number of cases where people, including a retired senior ex police inspector,

        end up in a prison cell for trying to deal  sensibly with some rebellious children,

        including their own children, is a shocking disgrace, but it is happening all the time.

        In such a climate who in their sane mind is going to have a go ??  

 

        My advice is be very careful what you do, because you will find that you are on your own,

        and end up on the receiving end of a prosecution, although you were the victim.

        Strange but true, it is happening all the time.

        We have been told that even to take a photo of people attacking us, or our property

        is a violation of their civil liberties.

      

        Now that is a very interesting situation.

        The lunatics are surely running the asylum.

         Aren’t all these cameras taking my photo all times of the day infringing my civil liberty?

        Aren’t these people who are continually damaging my fence infringing my civil liberty?        

When my house was stoned causing £1,500 of damage, was that not infringing my civil liberty?

Guess what?

The police did not come, when I called, therefore I no longer call the police for anything.

The woman on the phone said, can you see who is doing it?

I said No, (it was at night).

Do you know who is doing it?

I said No.

Well we cannot come.

When my daughter’s car was stopped momentarily some thug kicked in her car door.

Did the police do anything?

No.

To her credit she tracked the person down, right to his address.

She gave the police the information, but they did nothing.

The point is this a lack of discipline from a very young age, results in the problems,

that now beset us.

It is as simple as that.

 

If I was responsible for discipline, here is a suggestion, in addition to corporal punishment,

anyone found damaging any property, would have to personally learn how to return

the property back to its original condition.

It does not matter how long it takes for them to achieve the perfection required.

In addition they would have to pay all the costs of a professional to do the actual repair.

I guarantee that the effect would be quite dramatic.

 

If you are someone who wields a knife, to stab people, then let them work at jobs

in hospitals cleaning the mess from operations, and then let them spend some hands

on time in a mortuary.

 

If you drive like a lunatic, then you will train to deal with horrific road crashes.

Politicians who give instructions to bomb innocent civilians should be made to go

to these places and physically collect the body parts etc.

 

 Shock tactics are needed to wake us all up.

 

Our supposed role models, for example, soccer stars,

have shown that they are as violent as can be, on the football pitch.

Some do not mind breaking an opponent’s leg, or resorting to some other act of violence.

In sport when you are losing, if you cannot get to kick the ball,

it is now normal to kick the player instead.,

In cricket if you cannot hit the wicket, hit the player instead.

Violence is now taken as normal and acceptable.

 

The progression moves from knives, and hand guns to military hardware.

Simple dangerous knives, are replaced by jet aircraft, battleships, tanks, 

bombs of all types including nuclear, and all the high tech weaponry imaginable.

All are used to do exactly the same thing, kill innocent people,

until we get our own way.

 

As we say continuously we are reaping what we have sown.

 

Job 4:8  Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness,

reap the same.

 

Job 34:21  For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his goings.

 

Psalm 66:7  He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations:

let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.

 

If the Eternal God says one thing, which in effect makes it a law,

we say that we know a better way.

We will learn that there is no better way.

Violence in the home, at street level, or nationwide is a worldwide epidemic.

Knives and guns are the order of the day.

Stabbings in the UK amongst teenagers is at an all time high.

Violence in tropical paradises is also at an all time high.

There is absolutely nowhere left to run.

 

Psychologists, psychiatrists and counsellors abound, but the quality of life continues

to rapidly descent into chaos, and fear, everywhere.

To solve any problem you first of all need to know the cause.

Many psychiatrists openly state that they have never cured anyone,

and that drugs cannot deal with a non-existent problem.

 

The first problem is that in many countries, discipline has been outlawed,

and you can end up in prison, with a criminal record for spanking your child,

and some people have been arrested.

 

The reality is that if you have brought a child into the world,

the child is your responsibility period.

The child is your child for eternity.

If one is responsible for the destruction of the life of a child,

whether they are a parent or not, we should remember.

 

If you are not going to accept this responsibility then you should not have children,

period. In most countries the state is forcing its satanic will on you and your children,

you have to battle against this, and instil true values in your children. 

I am not saying that it is easy.

 

However, there is a much more important aspect to children of which most are unaware.

Just as our bodies are not ours to do as we wish with, neither are our children.

The Eternal God refers to our children as His own children, He says ‘My children’.

Yes, when you send your children off to kill in someone elses war or when you use

abortion as contraception, the Eternal God is asking if this is whoredom is a small matter?

 

Ezekiel 16:20  Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters,

whom thou hast borne unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed unto them to be devoured.

Is this of thy whoredoms a small matter,

Ezekiel 16:21  That thou hast slain my children, and delivered them to cause them to pass

through the fire for them?

 

As you can see the Eternal is very interested indeed in what you do with your children.

 

I have had three children, and they did not turn out to be thugs.

It is imperative that you spend time finding out exactly what your children

are being taught in school, and you must point out the lies taught,

and replace them with true values.

The biggest mistake you can make is to trust others to look after the welfare

of your children.

They are your children, and you will give an account to the Eternal God for them.

I can tell you that he is not going to ask you,

who is the best footballer in the world? or

who won this or that medal at the Olympics? 

who starred in this film or soap opera ?  etc. etc. 

 

You will be asked to account for all of your words and deeds.

 

Hebrews 9:27  And as it is appointed unto men once to die,

but after this the judgment:

 

Matthew 12:36  But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak,

they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

 

Psalm 33:13  The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.

 

Will the things that we did in the dark and secret places be overlooked?

 

Daniel 2:22  He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness,

and the light dwelleth with him.

 

Psalm 44:21  Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.

 

Regardless of government regulations if you do not discipline your children,

you will be disciplined, of course you need to use wisdom.

The police might not come to assist you, if you are robbed, but if your child calls them,

they will come, and give you a very hard time.

The various government ministers are supposedly throwing up their hands in despair,

as the violence escalates.

They claim that they do not know what to do, then, they should not be in government.

 

They simply need to obey the Eternal God.

 

Where are the Political and Religious Shepherds, who should be telling us what to do,

and setting us an example?

Answer, for the most part they are setting the wrong example in almost every instance,

as they literally promote and condone violence, under the guise of serving God.

What an abomination.

 

Yesterday I saw a very popular pastor related to Hillsongs, Australia,

singing about being healed.

He performs with various medical props from time to time including a wheelchair,

as he says that he is suffering from ‘cancer’.

People have given him lots of money to promote ‘his good works’.

Now it transpires that, this pastor is not sick at all,

but all this was a hoax to hide his deep addiction to pornography.

I have to confess that I am unable to see the link.

I see it as distinctly different problems.

He is a liar, a hypocrite and a pervert. 

 

You have to obey God rather than man.

Of course you have to use wisdom, but you do not have a choice.

The bottom line is that the Eternal God chastises us,

and states that if He does not do so we would not be His Children.

 

Hebrews 12:8  But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers,

then are ye bastards, and not sons.

Hebrews 12:9  Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us,

and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the

Father of spirits, and live?

Hebrews 12:10  For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure;

but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.

 

First and foremost we have to train our children.

It does not tell us that the government or child minders should care for our children.

It tells us that we must do this, and it will benefit them in their later years.

 

Proverbs 22:6  Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old,

he will not depart from it.

 

Deuteronomy 8:1  All the commandments which I command thee this day

shall ye observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land

which the LORD sware unto your fathers.

 

Second we MUST chasten our children, this is not a matter of choice.

This verse tells us that there is a time when it will be too late to chasten our children.

 

Proverbs 19:18 Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.

 

Third, smacking and correction will help a child, but if you let them have their own

way you are not headed for trouble, you are already in deep trouble.

 

Proverbs 22:15  Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction

shall drive it far from him.

Proverbs 23:13  Withhold not correction from the child:

for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die.

Proverbs 29:15  The rod and reproof give wisdom:

but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.

 

Fourth, there is a specific way to be at rest with your children,

and for them to be a delight to you.

They must be corrected.

 

Proverbs 29:17 Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea,

he shall give delight unto thy soul.

 

If you discipline your children, my experience is by the time you have your third child,

that child would tend to easily accept that it is not a good idea to be disciplined.

Instead of discipline we tend to spoil our children in the mistaken belief

that we are helping them, but we are not.

 

I know of many people, who are of great age, and they still suffering the effects

in their marriage relationships where either, none of the above were practised,

or very little was done, or it was done in an inconsistent way. 

So failure to properly teach our children, will result in marriage failures,

and dysfunctional families, much further down the line. 

We can see that this is a very serious and important matter.

 

Fifth Respect, Unselfishness, and all the healthy qualities have to be taught,

but how can you teach that which you do not know yourself?

 

Psalms 78:5  For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel,

which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children:

Psalms 78:6  That the generation to come might know them, even the children

which should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children:

 

I have neighbours who swear very loudly.

the grandmother swears, therefore it is not a big surprise that her young grandchildren

also swear at the top of their voices.

They believe that it is normal.

For them discipline is a matter of who can shout the loudest.

 

Sixth What we need to be taught is found in the entire bible.

When Paul wrote this to Timothy, the only scriptures in existence were

the Old Testament scriptures, which today are said to be

done away with’, as they are ‘The Old Covenant’.

This is one of the biggest lies foisted on man, by Satan and his co-workers.

 

2 Timothy 3:15  And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures,

which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus

 

Abraham was very special to God, because, he listened to and obeyed Him.

This is what the Eternal God said about him.

 

Genesis 18:19  For I know him,

that he will command his children and his household after him, and

they shall keep the way of the LORD,

to do justice and judgment;

that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.

 

Seventh We should never lie to our children.

It is one of the ten commandments,

however, we prefer to live in denial, which is to ignore the facts and live a lie.

How can we discipline our children for lying when we are lying to ourselves and to them?

 

Exodus 20:16  Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.

Mark 10:19  Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery,

Do not kill, Do not steal,

Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.

 

We lie not just to our neighbours, but to our own children, then we expect

them to always tell the truth.

We often lie to our children more than we lie to others.

We lie to them about Christmas, Easter, Halloween, Harry Potter,

violent computer games, and every imaginable thing.

The catastrophic end result is that our children,

like us believe that lies, and violence are normal.

We now expect lawyers and politicians to lie.

We now expect sellers of goods to lie.

Just try downloading some software from the Internet that claims to be free.

 

If some children cause you or your property some damage, or hurl abuse at you,

sometimes, if you go to the parents, you will experience even more abuse,

and the threat of violence.

All of this stems from a lack of discipline.

In my childhood that was not how it worked at all.

If I was punished at school even if I had not done nothing wrong at all,

what was certain is that when I arrived home there would a second

and much harsher installment awaiting me.

If I passed some senior person, and ignored them and did not greet them,

without mobile phones, my mother would know, and that would not be good news.

Discipline played an important part of my young life.

 

Many people like to believe that the God of the Old Testament is harsh Old man,

just waiting to swat us in a similar manner to how we swat flies.

They then believe that the God of the New Testament is a gentle Jesus meek and mild,

with the sort of flower power of ‘love’.

 

         The reality is that there is only one God, not two or three.

          God is always consistent as He never changes.

 

          Malachi 3:6  For I am the LORD, I change not;

          therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.

 

          As a child and as an adult, I have often been punished when I have done nothing wrong.

          God does not operate like that.

 He does not punish by whim.

 He upholds His laws in the minutest detail.              

Though we moan and groan about God, in truth we expect Him to be completely faithful

 in upholding his laws, even when we do not believe that He exists.

 How crazy is that?

 

 A happy and peaceful family, nation, world, and universe can only exist,

 if we adhere to the laws by which it is governed.

This will always, forever, and right through out Eternity require discipline.

 

If this is not the case, the inevitable result is that given time, we would descend into

the chaos, which we are told existed in Genesis 1:2, and which we are seeing today,

when the survival of mankind is once again in the balance. 

  

         This is not an engineered scenario, but rather a statement of fact.

 

          Matthew 24:22  And except those days should be shortened,

there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.

 

This is repeated, in case we missed it the first time.

This is where we are right now, not a hundred years down the line, but now, right now.

Change the political parties, and governments as much as you wish, will not change any thing.

Any meaningful change in our lives requires the involvement of the Eternal God.

All other changes at best are superficial.

 

This is the bottom line.

 

Mark 13:20  And except that the Lord had shortened those days,

no flesh should be saved: but for the elect’s sake, whom he hath chosen,

he hath shortened the days.

 

         I have explained in a video called:  The Last Disaster, that we are living in an age,

         when things will get so very bad, that we will say that we do not ever want to go

through such a time again.   

It is this horrific end of the age time that will make people cry out for a saviour,

any saviour. This will be the reason the cue for anti-Christ to come on the scene,

with his false offer of peace.

Peace is Christ, no Christ no Peace.

It is for this reason that all peace conferences will subsequently fail.

 

The Eternal God’s already has a plan in place to ensure that we will never

go through a time, such as this again.

If you think about it you will surely see the reality,

which is that there is simply no other way.

 

There is never going to be a time when it is right to kill, steal, lie, commit adultery,

worship Satan etc. etc.

 

It is for this reason we have to be ruled with a rod of iron.

It is the only way for lasting peace, and genuine prosperity for all.  

Therefore discipline has to be strictly enforced.

Laws and discipline work hand in hand.

 

It is only then that we will not have

to worry about locks on doors.

have to be fearful all the time.

have to worry about the air, food and water being poisoned.

have to worry about bombs falling on our heads, and a host of other curses

which we are all experiencing to one degree or another, as explained in detail

in Deuteronomy 28.

 

All rebellion will be stamped out instantly.

It will not be allowed to germinate, much less grow, blossom and bear fruit,

because Christ, and His bride will both rule with a rod of iron.

 

Revelation 19:15  And out of his (Christ’s) mouth goeth a sharp sword,

that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron:

and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

Revelation 19:16  And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written,

KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

 

Revelation 2:27  And he (the manchild bride of Christ)

shall rule them with a rod of iron;

as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers:

even as I received of my Father.

 

See the Document: The Woman, The Man Child, The Remnant

 

This is repeated:

 

Revelation 12:5  And she brought forth a man child,

who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron:

and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

 

Although we must discipline our children, we should not frustrate and provoke them.

We should not confuse our children, they have enough of that with which to deal.

 

Ephesians 6:4  And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath:

but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

Colossians 3:21  Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

 

We cannot pick and choose what we are going to do and what we are not going to do,

when we have been instructed by the Eternal.

To pick and choose will always result in disaster.

The command to keep all the commands of the Eternal God is given many times in His Word.

 

Deuternomy 6:2  That thou mightest fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son,

all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged.

 

Deuteronomy 8:1  All the commandments which I command thee this day

shall ye observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply,

and go in and possess the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers.

 

Of course this does not include the Temple Rituals and sacrifices.

 

Humility, Gratitude, Thanksgiving, and Appreciation, for all things,

has not only to be taught,  but has to be a living example not only to our children,

but also to all those around us.

Once again if these critical basic qualities are missing from our lives,

it is almost totally impossible for them to be a part of our children’s lives.

 

        The responsibility of Parents is to diligently teach their children,

        and those for whom they have responsibility.

        It is a very strange age in which we live.

        In the U.K. where I live, they want our children from 3 years old,

        in order to completely stamp out of them any moral values,

        which we have taught our children.

        It is this formative time that we must do our utmost to implant true values.

 

Deuteronomy 6:7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children,

and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house,

and when thou walkest by the way,

and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

Deuteronomy 6:8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand,

and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.

         Deuteronomy 6:9 And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house,

         and on thy gates.

 

        As I have said, if you do not have true values how can you impart them?

        I would say that it is probably almost too late at age 6 and 7.

        It is definitely too late at 9 years old, and onwards.

        Our schools and universities, do not teach our children how to live, but rather tend

        to produce atheistic children, who already ‘know it all’.

       

         It is sad but true.

         Unbelievably, many times, because we have left it too late,

         we cannot speak to our children, however,

         we can always be the right example, and this is precisely what we should be.            

 

 Pray for things of lasting value for your children, David did.

 

1 Chronicles 29:19  And give unto Solomon my son a perfect heart,

to keep thy commandments, thy testimonies, and thy statutes,

and to do all these things, and to build the palace, for the which I have made provision.

 

Psalms 78:4  We will not hide them from their children, shewing to the generation

to come the praises of the LORD, and his strength, and his wonderful works

that he hath done.

Psalms 78:5  For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel,

which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children:

Psalms 78:6  That the generation to come might know them, even the children

which should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children:

Psalms 78:7  That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works

of God, but keep his commandments:

 

What should children do?

 

Proverbs 4:1 Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know

understanding.

Proverbs 4:2  For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law.

Proverbs 4:3  For I was my father’s son, tender and only beloved in the sight

of my mother.

Proverbs 4:4  He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words:

keep my commandments, and live.

 

Discipline is for the benefit of children and parents.

As adults we should first of all ensure that we discipline ourselves,

to listen to and to obey the Eternal God.

If we do not do this, it is inevitable that we will ourselves be disciplined

by our loving father in heaven, for our Eternal good.
