CHARITY

CHARITY


APRIL 28, 2001


Unto the churches of God, and all who are called to be saints of Christ: All Hail: Is it well with thee?: I am well in the charity of the Lord our God: the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. May His Grace be upon you always: and His Love: and His Mercy. May the tenderness of His heart embrace you in your patience, and comfort you in your longsuffering, that you stand before the Lord with fervent charity: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins (I Peter 4:8). For what say the Scriptures: Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart(I Timothy 1:5).


Let us open our bibles this Sabbath to I Corinthians 13: 1-10 and read: THOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall pass away. For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.


And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge: and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing(I Corinthians 13:2).


Let us know therefore O saints of the Most High, that, charity is greater than love. For to have all faith is to have love: and to understand all mysteries is to be loved: and to have all knowledge is to know love: and the gift of prophecy is the blessing of love. So according to the Scriptures, to have those things without charity is to be nothing. Thus, charity is greater than love. But is charity merely giving?


And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing(I Corinthians 13:3).


So according to the Scriptures, charity is more than freely giving material things, even the giving of life. For to give away food, or clothing, or money to the needy can be a selfish act: even the laying down of your life. For example: To make donations to the needy for a tax break is not true charity: but a selfish act because you gain from your actions. And to make donations of items to clean out your garage or attic is not true charity: because you gave those items away because you needed space or cleaning. And to lay down your life for yourself and not for your brother or your neighbor is a selfish act: because you seek salvation for yourself and not others.


True charity is a greater love than love: and there is no love greater than to lay down your life for your friends. True charity is to donate your time, and service, and possessions without worldly benefit. Since it is easier for a camel to fit through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven, some try to sneak into heaven by providing charitable donations for a tax break: but true charity will make a donation without requesting a tax break: so only true charity is under grace. But be not confused: for it is not unworthy to make a donation for a tax break: for truly I am not an advocate for taxes: and it be wise to take advantage of a tax break. But true charity makes a donation of money, clothing, or items without requesting anything in return and solely for the sake of benefiting others.


To give your goods to the needy can be a selfish act: to lay down your life for the gospel can be a selfish act: but true charity is never a selfish act: because true charity is done without gain and strictly for the welfare others.


Let us read again how Paul describes Charity: Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things; hopeth all things, endureth all things(I Corinthians 13:4-7).


Charity therefore is the Spirit of Christ: and Christ knows the heart and soul of every man. So you can mislead men with your charitable actions: but you cannot mislead Christ. Also, if one be true in charity, then one envy not, do not vaunt, think not only of themselves, use no inappropriate behavior, is not easily incensed, hold no thoughts of evil, delight not in sin, but is kind, and bear all tribulation, and endure all things, and rejoice in the truth.


When I turn the other cheek, I have done charity. When I pray for my enemies, I have done charity. When I serve my master, I have done charity. When I turn from anger, I have done charity. When I stand in peace, I have done charity. When I obey the law of the land, I have done charity. When I show love to hate, I have done charity. Charity is a greater love: because it is love for others for the sake of others: even love for strangers and the undeserving.


For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away(I Corinthians 13:9-10).

My sisters and brothers: Perfect is Undisputable Truth according to the Authorized King James Version of the Holy Bible: for there is no truth on the earth greater than the Scriptures of the Holy Bible. And if I come in the same Scriptures, being a Jew, then should you know that the doctrine known on the earth as Christianity is after the traditions and customs of men and not Christ. Also know that the Authorized King James Version of the Holy Bible is authentic in the original tongues.


It is written that when perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. Perfect is now before you: For if my testimony is not perfect: let one show me one flaw according to the Scriptures of the Authorized King James Version of the Holy Bible and I shall not speak another word. Let your ministers and wise men come forward in the spirit of Charity and address my testimony to my face and not behind my back: for loud is a man behind my back: but silent is that same man before my face. Moreover: Let a man show me where my testimony is not in accordance with the testimony that came directly from the mouth of Jesus Christ himself. I tell you the truth: There is no religion nor any faith that can say Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost: and the Holy Ghost is the Spirit that speak with Undisputable Truth.


I tell you no lie, and challenge any man to make me a liar: for I Cornelius, a Hebrew saint, called to the Spirit of the Son of man, stand this day and every day before you whole as the Holy Ghost in flesh. And if a man seek proof of my authenticity: let him find it in the Truth: for the Holy Ghost is the Spirit of Truth. But as I challenge the ministers and wise men on the earth, I challenge them in the spirit of charity. For I gain nothing in proving them wrong: but they shall gain everlasting life with adhering to the Truth, that they might save their own congregation. For I have not come to take away your congregation, but to show you the way, that you might teach them the way. But if you forsake the Truth, I shall not forsake the members of your congregation; but give them the opportunity to know the Truth, that they might be saved. And I say might because to know the Truth and to follow the Truth is separate things.


Here is knowledge: It was the charity of God that gave salvation to the Gentiles and a teacher (Paul) that they might no longer be led by dumb idols: but understand the Spirit and love of God. It is the charity of God that has redeemed us all: both Jew and Gentile: for we all are now one in our Lord Jesus Christ. For the knowledge of God was given in part to all flesh as spiritual gifts: For what say the Scriptures in I Corinthians 12: 4-14 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been made to drink into one Spirit. For the body is not one member, but many.


So in part were the people of the nations on the earth given spiritual gifts and knowledge, which justified ones religion, ones day of worship, and the administration and operation of ones church. So a different church on every corner was justified by the charity of God, that the ignorant of God might learn and understand the way of God. For the apostle Paul was given the task of converting and teaching the Gentiles and the Jews, which caused Paul to give leniency in some things to the Gentiles as well as to the Jews, in order to maintain the gospel among them, and sustain the Church of God with them. For Paul wrote in I Corinthians 9:19-22 For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more. And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law. To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to men, that I might by all means save some.


So where there is contradiction in Paul writings, know why. Also know, that according to the Scriptures, what Paul gave to the Gentiles as the teacher of the Gentiles was in part: and that which is in part has now passed away: because that which is perfect is now before you. It is Undisputable Truth: it is the Lambs book of life, which is the last will and testament of Christ. It is that which many choose to ignore: but it shall be lifted to prominence in its own time. But for now I am subject to speak to death ears: but the true worshippers hear me and come forward: but they are few compared to all the earth. Nevertheless, I speak today and tomorrow, until my hour is done, and my charity fulfilled.


Saints of the Most High: The Scriptures say that by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body: and that the one body is Christ. So what is the one Spirit?: and what is the body of Christ?


The one Spirit is Christ, which is the Spirit of Truth, and the Holy Ghost. The one body is Jesus, which is the heart and soul of a devout Jew, which is the body of Christ. And only with the Spirit of Truth can a man be baptized into the body of Christ, which is the body of a so-called black Jew. And if one should say, Where in the bible does it say that Christ was a black man? My first answer is to look at my face: for there is no other Jew than a so-called black Jew: but in the Spirit of the Scriptures upon whom you say that you trust, it is written in Daniel 7:9 I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: I know no man on earth with hair like pure wool but the hair of a so-called black man. Moreover, it is written in Revelation 1:14-15 describing one like unto the Son of man: His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; I know no man on earth with feet as if they burned in a furnace but the feet of a so-called black man. The truth is the truth: and there is no opinion to the truth. So accept the truth: because the truth shall set you free from all lies and deceit.


Now that the truth is known about the body of Christ: How many of you now seek to be baptized into his body? For the multitudes that were praising the body of Jesus have now turned away from the body of truth: because the body of truth is not pleasing to their eye. But what did Jesus say: If thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire(St. Mark 9:47).


If a person is righteous, then charity is in their soul, and they rejoice in the truth, and give honor to the body of truth as it is written in I Corinthians 12:25-26 That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it. If we are baptized in the Spirit of Truth, then we all are members in the body of Christ, whether Black or White; Asian or Latino, African or Arab, Indian or European. We are the flesh and tongue of many but the body of one: and in the spirit of charity if one member suffer we all suffer: and if one member is honored the others members rejoice with it. So if you say that you are baptized in the body of Christ, why then are you angry about the blackness of Christ body? Many have said prior to my coming, I walk in the Spirit of Truth: yet now that the Truth is revealed, their feet is stuck in the road to hell, which is misleading them, because the road to hell is paved with good intentions. But what did Jesus say: If thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched(St. Mark 9:45).


Many of the Christian faith oppose my testimony: even the Jews of my heritage. But he that oppose me oppose the Truth: because one can find no lie in my testimony. Oppose me as you will and ignore me as you do: for Christianity and Judaism as you know it is surely a mountain of lies. But by faith and endurance, this mountain shall be removed. For we, who are the true worshippers of God, shall be lifted up from out of a molehill: and the faith of few shall conquer the lie of many. For a true Christian is baptized in the Spirit of Truth: and a true Christian is sanctified in the body of Christ. How then can Christianity be spared when it oppose the Scriptures that it preach, and refuse the true body of Christ. Christianity is not the doctrine of Christ: neither is it that which was given in part to the Gentiles. Christianity is Christendom: the road to hell the ministers of Satan paved with good intentions to deceive the earth. Christianity is exactly as it sound: Anti-Christian.


I take nothing from the church, but Christ is the head of the church. And if Christ is the head of the church, then the church is ordained in Jewish traditions and customs as was Jesus. So in the spirit of charity rejoice in the truth: all ye that are new to the truth. For where I stand is the house of Christ: and what be my body but the body of Christ. I come not with opinions, but with the charity of life: and I pour my charity upon all members of Christ body: and all members of Christ body pour their charity upon me. For what say the Scriptures: Let all your things be done with charity(I Corinthians 16:14): For charity never fail: because charity is Christ, which edify the knowledge of a man. Receive the truth and correction in the spirit of charity upon which it is given: for whom the Lord love, the Lord correct. So be not tempted by pride: but humble yourself and accept the truth: for such is the actions of a perfect man.


Here is wisdom: And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity(I Corinthians 13:13).


Of all the things spoken on charity this is the sum: And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness (Colossians 3:14).


The voice of God is calling you to come and be baptized in the Spirit of Truth, that you may become a member in the true body of Christ. For any who say that they were saved before perfect had come were saved in part; thus they are not whole in the body of Christ. For Jesus said: Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God(St. John 3:5). To be born of water is concluded with the washing of feet: for unless your feet is washed with water, you have no part with Christ (St. John 13:8). To be born of the Spirit is the acceptance of Christ, which is the Spirit of Truth. With the Spirit of Truth and the washing of feet, only then can one be baptized whole in the body of Christ. Become whole in the body of Christ: for only then can a man be saved. Amen.
