We have a new friend, Stephen Anderson, a recent visitor and now a new co-worker in God's kingdom. His site is Disciples of Jesus and it is a joy to find another pilgrim who left the apostate establishment church.
Here is an excerpt from his "About Me":

".......But most of what has happened here is my life has been turned inside out. I now know what it is like to be crushed, to come to the point where I just wanted to flee into the desert and understand Elijah and Jeremiah. I've seen too much of the underbelly of the Church. In fact, my entire understanding of church has been shattered. Nevertheless, even when we are faithless, He remains faithful, Amen. Having our theology severely shaken can be a good thing if it breaks down the false doctrines of men and drives us anew to the Word of God to find the real truth.

I believe there are others out there like me. You know the Lord has called you. You know He has a purpose for you. Yet you feel like a fish out of water, flopping here and there, trying to find the water you were created to swim in.

I'll tell you what I suspect: God has those He redeemed many years ago, those He saved for the depths of sin and darkness, kept in reserve as His last days witnesses to the power of the Gospel. There are still a remnant that can stand up and say, "I know the power of the Gospel, I know the depths of the love of God, I know what it means to be saved.

You can keep your theology, your purpose driven, self affirming, seeker friendly, sin loving Church. I've met the Lord, He lifted me up out of my own filth and vomit. He washed me and clothed me. He restored my mind and body. HE IS MY SAVIOR! I am His last days witness, the work of His hands."

And together we will stand as living and dying witnesses to His unbounded love and faithfulness, to the chief of sinners, in the midst of a God hating and sin loving world."

Praise the Lord Jesus.
On another note, we received a good revelation from Sherri and her healing:

I wanted to quickly share something with you regarding the time of emailing you regarding the blessing/curses. (Deut. 28)
I found it strange that the day you responded to my initial email that I had a rash on my right arm.  I had
been to my son's football practice sitting in the grass and assumed that the rash was a result of a sweat bee.

The following morning, the rash was gone.  The next night however, I awoke at around 2 am with an awful rash all over my legs.  This rash looked much like hives which I have never had any problems with.  The rash looked like huge welts that itched without relief. 

 After a tough night sleeping, I again awoke to find the rash was no longer there.  The next night, I again had the same experience and woke up my husband to show him what was going on.  The following morning, I had no sign of the rash. 

I do have a medical background and expecting this next baby in November. I did some basic research and  determined I was experiencing PUPP,  a common rash linked to many women during pregnancy.  I continued to experience this rash each night throughout my search regarding the blessing/curses

The day of your last email recommending David E.'s book, I felt that I had a much better understanding of the truth.  I went to bed that night to wake up once again to this.what was becoming an awful rash.  I woke my husband to show him again because both of my legs, my arms and a portion of my stomach was red, welted, and itching making it difficult for me to have a peaceful night of rest. 

 We went to bed then and I said to the Lord, this is crazy...I don't get rashes, I don't have sickness in my life and Lord, I don't have to because of what You did for me so I am not going to accept this because I live a blessed life and one of obedience in You. 

 He quickly asked me then, why I assumed the curse was not alive and real among the earth today if I wasn't going to accept the curse in my life. It just clicked. 

 I repented because I knew that I had allowed my "medical education" to interfere with my faith.  I have spent so many years labeling the curse with a diagnosis name overlooking that it all is a result of the curse.  He has shown me a great truth.  I repented and my eyes were open to the Word that is always true and just.  I woke up the following morning with no sign of this rash.  It has now been almost amonth and I have not ever had such a thing again.


Praise the Lord Sherri!
 We are loving our growing together in grace and knowledge of His Word
