The Sanctified, And The Unsanctified child of God, their is a difference in the children of God, and the children of the devil, there is a difference in clean, and unclean, sanctified, and unsanctified, holy, and unholy. I have heard many preachers preach that every man, woman, and child, have an equal opportunity to receive the great salvation, that Christ Jesus purchased for us on Calvary's cross. But that is heresy. In this present world, there are both the children of God, and the children of the devil. There are those children that proceeded from God, the children of God: and there are those children that proceeded from the devil, the children of the devil. St. Matthew l3: 24 another parable put he forth unto them, saying, the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: 25. But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. 26. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. 27. So the servants of the household came and said unto him, sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? From whence then hath it tares? 28. He said unto them, an enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? 29. But he said, nay: lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. 30. Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn. Listen carefully children of God, the wheat was made wheat in creation, and the tares were made tares in creation. The children of God were made children of God, in creation: and the children of the devil were made the children of the devil in creation. Before the foundation of the world, God knew us, his children: and, selected, elected, hand picked us, to be his very own. And predestined us to be adopted into his family. Ephesians l:l Paul an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints, which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus: 2. Grace be to you, and peace, from God our father, and from the lord Jesus Christ. 3. Blessed be the God and father of our lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ. 4. According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love. 5. Having predestined us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will. Saints of God, listen as I read you these scriptures, concerning God's knowledge of his children before they were ever formed in their mother's belly. In these verses of scripture, Jesus Christ is speaking to Jeremiah. Jeremiah l:4 the word of the lord came unto saying, 5, and me. Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee: and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. Holy children, in this present world there are both wheat, and tares, growing together. They are so close to one another, that if God sent his angels to gather out of the world the children of Satan, some of God's children would be rooted up. Therefore God will let both grow together until harvest time, the end of the world. And in the end of the world, Jesus Christ will send forth his angels, and gather the tares first, and bind them and burn them. In these verses of scripture Jesus Christ, the creator of heaven, and earth is speaking, and he says, St. Matthew l3:30 let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn. Think on this beloved, there are many more children of the devil in this world, than there are children of God. You may wonder, how I know that there are more children of Satan, in this world, than children of God. I know because of these words spoken by Jesus Christ, the one that shaped, and formed the sun, and the moon, and the stars, and placed them in space, in one day. St. Matthew 7:l3 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: l4. Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Brothers, and sisters, in the lord Jesus Christ, there is in this world, both wheat, and tares, and they are becoming full-grown. The children of God are becoming more like Christ day by day, and the children of Satan, are becoming more like Satan. When you hear men curse, and use all kinds of foul language, you know that they are giving a testimony that they are children of Satan. But, when you see men, women, and children, that are very careful what they say, and very careful how they act, especially, if they are always praising Jesus Christ, remember those people: for they are children of God. For it is by your words you shall be justified, vindicated, acquitted of sin. For by your words you shall be saved, and by your words you shall be condemned. In these verses of scripture, Jesus, the son of God, the Christ, the messiah, the anointed one, is speaking: and he says, St. Matthew l2:36 but I say unto you, that every idle word that men speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. 37. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. Saints of God, there are false prophets, children of Satan, the tares of his world, that preach that the children of God will not go through the great tribulation. But remember this, the children of Satan, the tares of this world shall be gathered first, and bound and burned. Then shall the children of God shine like the sun in the kingdom of our father. St. Matthew l3:36 then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house, and his disciples came unto him, saying declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field. 37. He answered and said unto them, he that soweth the good seed is the son of man: 38. The field is the world: the good seed are the children of the kingdom : but the tares are the children of the wicked one. 39. The enemy that sowed them is the devil: the harvest is the end of the world: and thereapers are the angels. 40. As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire : so shall it be in the end of the world. 4l. The son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them, which do iniquity: 43. Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their father, who hath ears to hear let him hear. Come into this knowledge saints of God, it is the false prophets that will lead the people to take the mark of the beast. It will make their job much easier, if the people are starving. For except a person receive the mark of the beast, they will not be able to buy or sell. Not only will the people not be able to buy or sell, but also the antichrist shall make war with the saints, and kill multitudes of God's children. Let no man deceive you, the lord Jesus shall not return: before the antichrist makes his appearance. 2 Thessalonians 2:l now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him. 2. That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand, 3. 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. Christian brethren, no man can tell you the day, or the hour, when the lord Jesus Christ shall return, but we, the children of God, know very close. For it is not God's will, that the day of the lord should come upon us as a thief in the night. L Thessalonians 5:l but the times and the season, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto 2. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 3. For when they shall say, peace and safety: then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child: and they shall not escape. 4. But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Listen carefully, saints of God, the man, the antichrist is coming with great power, his reign shall be for three and one half years. He shall bring tribulation upon the children of God, greater than this world has ever known. For years he will make war against the saints, we will not be able to buy or sell. Therefore saints since you know that these times are coming, this famine is coming: prepare. For though this man makes war against us, we as children of God will not be able to defend ourselves. They will kill us, but by commandment we are not allowed to kill them. Revelation l3:l if any man have an ear, let him hear. He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints. Beloved of God, if you have seen the movie Schindler's List, you will have an idea how cruel men can be. In this movie, the first thing done to the Jews was all their property was confiscated, their homes, their furniture, their food. Then they were put in a ghetto. Then many were sent off on trains to be slaughtered, and their bodies to be burned. Then the enemy of the Jews began to slaughter the people in the ghettos. Six million people were slaughtered. But this was not the greatest slaughter, after world two, there was a civil war in china, in which somewhere between twenty million, and sixty million Chinese were massacred. The massacre would been greater, but some of the Chinese fled to Formosa. I imagine that the Jewish Christians thought that the antichrist had come when they saw the massacre, and the Chinese Christians thought that the antichrist had come when they saw the massacre. But nothing is to compare to the great tribulation that is coming. Revelation 7:9 after this I beheld, and lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindred's, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands. And cried with a loud voice, saying salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the lamb. Revelation 7:l3 and one of the elders answered, saying unto me, what are these, which are arrayed, in white robes? And whence came they? And I said unto him, sir, thou knowest. And he said unto me, these are they, which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more : neither shall the sunlight on them, nor any heat. L7. For the lamb is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God will wipe away all tears from their eyes. Let me conclude by saying, as children go through school they began to believe everything that is in print, but child of God, a lie in print is no better, or no worse than a lie spoken. If what you read does not agree with the Holy Scriptures it is not of God.
