Is there Middle Ground

Somewhere in the middle
14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceansa write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; 15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 17 Because thou sayest*, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: 18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. 19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. 20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. 21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. 22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.


We believe that God in, all His knowledge, wisdom and understanding condensed over two thousand years of time into seven segments. Each segment has an angel and a name of a church that would represent the condition of His bride down to His coming. Currently we worship in the church of Laodiceansa. Actually, we are in the middle ground. The age assigned to the Philadelphia church worshipers is waning down and the last church period of worshipers in entering into God’s time frame. His coming is nigh. However that is not God’s message for today. It introduces you to age periods of each named period and places us clearly in the end times.

Is it right? Is it wrong? Is there any middle ground? Find the answer in the first three chapters of Revelation. You will find many functioning in the middle ground in today’s apostate churches.. There is no sacred ground when daemons come out to spar. There is no safe ground save the BODY of Christ. (The Church). There is a true church in operation today. Members are few in number. There is an apostate, lukewarm or cold presenting the basics of Christianity but avoiding death, hell and the grave. These are happy-go-lucky “worshipers” who live ‘Christ” by day and like the “devil” at night. Akin to these visible Loidicea church members is a putrid defeated group that make the motions of worship but their heart isn’t in their works. God does not approve of middle ground children. Don’t misunderstand here:

22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

Hebrews 4:1 1 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.

Revelation 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Revelation 17:10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.

Adopted into the Body, we must have faith and practice Christ likeness. Then when we stumble or come short forgiveness is promised upon the asking. There is no need to question “is it right” or “Is it wrong.” God’s Word holds all the answers to all questions. We must know God’s Word. Yes there is a middle ground. Here it can be inhabited and pleasure taken within it. In the Kingdom of Heaven nothing is gray. All is bright, white and holy. To enter into the kingdom, steer yout very minds away from all but what God’s word shows you it is right. Know God, know peace. Amen 05-30-2019 BLL

Thy will be Done...the Wayfarer 3/15/19

Thy will be Done 3/15/19 Matthew 6:9-13 King James Version (KJV) 9  After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10  Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11  Give us this day our daily bread. 12  And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. The "model " prayer, given us by Jesus, repeated daily throughout the world, by many denomination and sect, though seldom examined by those parroting the words is NOT an empty example that is to be followed by congregant, memorized by children and adult alike.  It is exactly the opposite of that emptiness, holding the essence of what SHOU LD be in the heart of the one praying. It is GOD'S will that need be sought, not just daily, but continually by all wishing ...

Remember Therefore from Whence Thou art Fallen,,the Wayfarer 3//27/13

 3//27/13 “Remember from Whence Thou art Fallen” “Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” (Revelation 2:5) Today we touch the untouchable book of Revelation, given to us by John of Patmos, through our Savior Jesus Christ himself. This particular message is one I have given before, in places where I knew none of the congregation, and had no idea why God wouldn’t let me preach from any other scripture.  It is probably one of the most important messages for the people of today’s church to hear. It is also probably the hardest for today’s “Christians” here in our country to comprehend, and even harder to accept. Take note of the use of the phrase “ the first works” used by Jesus, we will delve deeply into the meaning of this phrase as we progress through today’s message. First, however let us back...

The Life is More than Meat...the Wayfarer 11/29/15

The Life is More than Meat  11/29/15 22  And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. 23  The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment. (Luke 12:22 &23) Life is indeed more than meat, food, clothing and the things that are constantly demanding the attention of the physical, carnal man, whose concern for himself and those he considers his own, all too often revolve. Life also consists of the inner being, the soul of that man, and those he considers his own, and all others as well with whom he is in contact in the process of what is called living. It is that very essence of life, that eternal soul that holds preeminence and prominence above all physical “needs”. The necessity of a warm coat to stave off the chill of the winter’s cold is undeniably important, without it the physical body, first suffers discomfort, and if ...
