This is not intended to be an attack on the moral character of individual Mormons. Rather, it is an exposure of their many false teachings. Mormons do not fall under the category of Christian, because of their heretical teaching about salvation, the person of Jesus Christ and the Holy Bible.

First of all, Mormons are polytheistic in belief. Polytheism teaches that there is more than one god. In fact, Mormonism teaches that there are millions of gods. They teach that each god has his own world and possibly, his own universe. These gods were at one time men like you and me, and if we are worthy, we too will become a god.

Mormons believe and teach that each of these gods has multiple wives. They believe that the God of the Bible is just one of the many Mormon gods. Mormons teach that these gods and their multiple wives have sex and the result is the offspring of spirit babies.

In order for those spirit babies to have the opportunity to become gods and acquire their own world and wives, they must first have bodies of flesh and blood to work in. That is where and why the doctrine of polygamy was incorporated into Mormonism. It is one of their fundamental doctrines. Men are taught that it is their duty and responsibility to have as many children as possible so the spirit babies can be sent to earth to indwell them. Their belief is that you existed before your earthly parents conceived you, and you were then sent here to fulfill your Mormon mission.

Mormons teach that their wives on earth will be their wives in the afterlife, and that they too will continue to have sex and spirit babies, if their husbands are pleased with them and call them from the grave. (That is another subject). Most Mormons do not want the general public to know of these vital doctrines of their church. Mormons want you to believe they are part of main stream Christianity. Now you know.

The Last Sermon of Jesus

by

Last Sermon of JesusDr. Blue speaks about the last public sermon of Jesus.  He explains that Jesus is emphasising, and finally putting on the capstone of what He has been trying to teach Israel for the previous three years. It is the uppermost thing that is on the Lord’s heart.

Dr. Blue explains that Jesus is trying to teach Israel that they cannot believe in God without believing in Him as well (Matt. 10:40).  He knows that they need to understand the unity between Jesus and the Father. He has been trying to teach them about the absolute unity of Jesus and God.

Dr. Blue shows us from the Bible that God is invisible 1 Timothy 1:17, but if you believe in Jesus, then you believe the Father.  If you see Jesus, then you have seen the Father.  If you have touched Jesus, then you too have touched the Father (John 12:45).

Dr. Blue expertly shows us how Jesus further wants them to understand that He is the word which has always been (John 1:1).  In Him was life and it has always been available to man.  When man died he lost it, but Jesus came to give it back to those who would accept it.

Why is Jesus so urgent about people understanding this?  Because He wants the unbelieving crowd to be saved (John 12:46).

SHOULD A CHRISTIAN DRINK ALCOHOL?

by

Christian drink alcohol More than ever does a Christian drink alcohol rather than turn to the Lord to help him in his time of need.  Used properly, there are scientific applications for alcohol and drugs.  This does not negate God’s opinion regarding the matter, and it can be found in the Bible.

Using the Principle of first mention, Dr. Blue shows how man always connects drinking to immorality (Gen 19:30).  Things have now changed today.  Drinking can always be connected with immorality, immodesty and incest.  Almost every call into police stations regarding domestic disputes surround the consumption of alcohol. There is no place in the Christian life for these sins to prosper.

In every mention of drinking in the Bible ends in a curse: Noah, Lot, etc.  The fact that God curses those who are involved in drinking alcohol.

Why does a Christian drink alcohol? Many Christians are either ignorant of this, trying to overcome or are directly defiant of God’s Word.  Dr. Blue believes that God’s Word can help immensely.

God very specifically addresses His expectation of the Christian in Leviticus 10:9.  This verse of Scripture makes it very clear what His opinion is regarding any Christian drinking alcohol, in any form.  Dr. Blue uses it and many other instances from the Bible to address this subject.

The world is full of people who drink all of the time.  But, should a Christian Drink Alcohol? This AUDIO SERMON will help you to answer that question for yourself.

THE UNSEEN PRISON

Unseen PrisonTHE UNSEEN PRISON
By Ken Blue

There is an unseen prison,
With bolts, chains and bars.
The floor is ever changing;
Despair hides the stars.

The prison holds victims firm;
They lack strength or will.
Human efforts to escape,
Those walls; victor still.

The walls are of fleshly lust,
Ceilings, mans own pride.
Floors crafted of impure thoughts,
Where the captives hide.

No light shines in that dungeon;
Darkness rules that den.
The walls, bars, and the ceilings;
All forged from our sins.

The slaves firmly shackled there,
Despair hour by hour.
Their hope for a full release,
An external power.

Jesus is the unseen Door;
Death, freedoms merit.
His grace sets the captives free;
Led by His Spirit.

There is an unseen prison,
With bolts, chains and bars.
Full pardon is provided,
Written in His scars.

Romans 6:11-16

WHAT IS THE GLORIOUS CHURCH? #2

by

Glorious church(In our last blog, we were discussing what the glorious church is not. We continue, and  then will state what is.)

The glorious church does not mix the Kingdom of Heaven gospel with the gospel of grace preached by Paul.

The glorious church is not one that claims it practices Matthew 28:19, 20. All the commissions, including Acts 1:8, are Jewish, and consist of the Kingdom of Heaven ministry. No church today is, or can obey those commissions. That is easy to prove. No church preaches or practices “all things” Jesus taught His disciples.

The glorious church is not one that Jesus built while on earth. That church ceased to exist once Israel was set aside. A new apostle was chosen. A new gospel was revealed. A new mystery was made known. A new set of church epistles were given to Paul, and all this was done, not by Jesus on earth, but as the Lord from heaven. The glorious church is not one that fails to follow the teachings of Christ through Paul.

The glorious church can never be one that can’t rightly divide the Word of God. “ Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15.

WHAT IT IS THE GLORIOUS CHURCH?

Since the phrase, “a glorious church,” is found in the context of the mystery, we must be true to the text.

The first thing we notice is that the Lord wants the church to be morally pure, and that comes through the proper application of the Word. Just as a bride is to be pure on her wedding day, the Lord wants His church to be morally clean. The goal is for it to be holy and without blemish. The text is taken from the practical section of Ephesians. Doctrine, does not insure purity of life. There must be correct doctrine, and then correct application. Just as a man is to leave father and mother, and love his wife as his own body, so Christ loves the church, and gave Himself for it.

“This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.” Ephesians 5:28-32. It was not a mystery that a man and his wife were one body. The mystery was that the church would be one body composed of Jew and Gentile. The church is said to be “bone of his bone, and flesh of His flesh.”  This mystery was unknown from before the foundation of the world, and was unknown until revealed to and through Paul. Most Christians do not understand the literalness of this truth.

There are those who teach that the glorious Church are Baptist churches who follow Baptist polity and doctrine. Anyone can set polity, and doctrines for his own church domination, and then search for a text to prop it up. This is what most dominations do.

One writer cites John 17:4, “I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.” John 17:4, to mean that Jesus finished the work of building the Baptist Church. This a liberty that not even Joseph Smith would take with the text. The Glorious Church is not a denomination, nor does it exist today. If it does, no one know its name.

In conclusion, the church of which Paul speaks did not start or exist in the four gospels or early Acts. The church of which he speaks was a mystery until revealed from heaven to Paul.

The church in the O. T. and the gospels was the Kingdom of Heaven church, and has no part in the existing church. It is the church that will be completed in the Millennial Kingdom, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it.

The problem is, the brethren cannot rightly divide the Kingdom of Heaven from the Kingdom of God. They can’t discern the difference between the gospel Jesus and His disciples, and the gospel preached by Paul. They don’t know what John’s baptism signified, (I’ve yet to receive an answer to that question.)  and how it differed from Paul’s baptism. They cannot separate the Kingdom gospels from the church epistles, or the Jewish epistles. Neither can they prove from history an unbroken chain of church purity from its beginning until now.

The church will indeed be a glorious church at the glorious appearing of Jesus, for those who have been saved by the glorious gospel. He will change our vile bodies like unto His glorious body. That well be a glorious day when the glorious church gets to glory!  THAT IS WHEN IT WILL BE A GLORIOUS CHURCH!

Sad to say, from the practical aspect, the church is anything but glorious. Most of the brethren place the church today as the Laodicean church. The first half of Ephesians is doctrinal, and explains our glorified position in Him. The second half of the book, admonishes us to live a practical life that brings glory to Him. Only at the rapture, will the church truly be A GLORIOUS CHURCH!
