When I first saw this package, I asked myself, "How can they do this?" The opening comments say that this is possibly the LAST purchase you will ever need to make as an internet marketer. That is a pretty tall statement. Then I got the package. And............well, see for yourself

Christian Politics VS Christian Apathy
In my most recent studies, prayers, conversations, it has come to me that much of what we are talking about doing, and or, not doing, is largely just talk. Much of the conversation and rehortic centers around what it would be like had the "Christians" of this nation stood up for their beliefs and rights (such as prayer in schools, public display of the Ten Commandments, the political correctness of anything "Christian" in the public arena, etc). And goes further into the exhortation for us, as Christians, to "stand up" for our rights and take back all those distinctly "christian" aspects of living that our legal system has taken away.All this is well and good, and probably needs to be addressed, however, I would propose that this endeavor should never have been necessary had not a single aspect of our Christian lives been so infused into our thinking and behaviour as to become the primary rule of how we conduct the business of living.APATHTY has become the rule by which we live. ap'.a.thy - 1. Lack of interest or concern, especially regarding matters of general importance or appeal; indifference. 2. Lack of emotion or feeling; impassiveness. (The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth EditionCopyright © 2000 by Houghton Mifflin Company.Published by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved). If our commitment to our Lord Jesus Christ and His taught examples of life had truly been as apparent to our "unsaved, unreborn" brothers and sisters as we evidently think they are, there would never have been any occasion for such conversation. Such laws and prohibitions would never have come about. But, our apathy tells us to let "Let John share Jesus with others." My life will speak for itself. Well, IT HAS. and where are we now?The Great Commandment is "Go and tell others about Jesus and the salvation He offers to us."We, myself included. have reconstituted that to mean..... go to church and tell the other church people how great life in Christ is. That's great. But we do NOTHING to share our christianity with those outside of the church, and they are the ones who need it the most. They are also the ones who get the laws and bills pushed through the governing system that we are complaining about. No matter what we might believe or feel or perceive, what do those millions of unsaved, unchurched pagans out there think we believe, feel, or perceive. Why should they conform to the laws of a nation founded on the observation of the Ten Commandment when the believers of those Commandments have become so "apathetic" that we never tell anyone about out reasons for living. SHAME, SHAME, SHAME, on us. The laws and the judicial system and those people "out there" are not the problem. WE ARE. As Pogo Possum once said, "We has met the enemy and he is us."

Spirit Rain
Swimming in Gods RiverHope Chapel, Rebecca Ln, Abilene, TX July 3, 2002Larry FannLast Sunday night, Steve told us of a vision the Lord had given him at the beginning of the worship service that morning. He recounted how the Holy Spirit had brought to mind the gentle rain showers of the early morning and lasting on through the day. (The gentle showers continued on though the next evening also).These showers represented the sometimes gentle, sometimes more aggressive outflowing of the Holy Spirit is our lives. As the rain of the Spirit continued in his vision, we were at first filled up, then, as the rains continued we were soaked. As the rain continued to fall, sometimes gently, sometimes harder, we began to overflow and to make puddles around us. As the puddles grew they became a trickling little stream, then uniting with another stream, a larger stream flowing into a larger puddle. And becoming bigger and bigger as the rain of the Holy Spirit continued until there was a great river flowing from us going out into the world around us and getting everyone around us soaking wet in the Spirit flowfrom us.As any preacher or teacher of God would tell you, Check It Out in the Word of God. So I did. Heres what I came up with.Page 1Joel 2:2323 Be glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God; for He has given you the former rain faithfully, and He will cause the rain to come down for you-- the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.(NKJ)1 Cor 3:16-1716 Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?17 If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.(NKJ)2 Cor 6:1616 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they shall be My people."(NKJ)Eph 2:21-2221 in whom the whole building, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord,22 in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit. (NKJ) Page 2Ezek 47:1-12CHAPTER 471 Then he brought me back to the door of the temple; and there was water, flowing from under the threshold of the temple toward the east, for the front of the temple faced east; the water was flowing from under the right side of the temple, south of the altar.2 He brought me out by way of the north gate, and led me around on the outside to the outer gateway that faces east; and there was water, running out on the right side.3 And when the man went out to the east with the line in his hand, he measured one thousand cubits, and he brought me through the waters; the water came up to my ankles.4 Again he measured one thousand and brought me through the waters; the water came up to my knees. Again he measured one thousand and brought me through; the water came up to my waist.5 Again he measured one thousand, and it was a river that I could not cross; for the water was too deep, water in which one must swim, a river that could not be crossed.6 He said to me, "Son of man, have you seen this?" Then he brought me and returned me to the bank of the river.7 When I returned, there, along the bank of the river, were very many trees on one side and the other.8 Then he said to me: "This water flows toward the eastern region, goes down into the valley, and enters the sea. When it reaches the sea, its waters are healed. Page 39 "And it shall be that every living thing that moves, wherever the rivers go, will live. There will be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters go there; for they will be healed, and everything will live wherever the river goes.10 "It shall be that fishermen will stand by it from En Gedi to En Eglaim; they will be places for spreading their nets. Their fish will be of the same kinds as the fish of the Great Sea, exceedingly many.11 "But its swamps and marshes will not be healed; they will be given over to salt.12 "Along the bank of the river, on this side and that, will grow all kinds of trees used for food; their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. They will bear fruit every month, because their water flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for medicine." (NKJ)OK, heres where the battle begins. Man is a spirit. He has a soul. He lives in a body. Satan by using his deception, and his confusion, tries to tell us that our flesh is the most important consideration that we can have, whereas in reality, the flesh really has very little, if any, importance. True, the flesh came first, as in Adam, and the spirit came secondly as in Jesus.Paul cautions us not to be ignorant of the devils methods, so here is one that we dont need to be ignorant of. Satan uses the flesh of our bodies as a tool. He knows that these bodies can feel pain, can be tired, can get old and run down. He know also the we live the beginning years of our lives in these bodies without any knowledge of the spirit man, therefore we come to be very much more accustomed to appeasing our flesh than we have any need to.Satan causes our flesh to hurt. I must have a cancer, or a heart attack. My knees get stiff. I must be getting old and worn out. My body is tired. I dont want to go to church. My flesh is too abundant. People will laugh at me. My flesh needs this. My flesh needs that. My doctor say so. Page 4We attach so much importance to the needs and demands of the flesh, that gratifying it (the flesh) becomes an obsession with us. Thats fine with satan, because it takes our thoughts away from God. It truly is hard to really enter into praise and worship when your flesh hurts, or is hungry. And there really is an element of truth in what ole sluefoot is telling us. If we neglect our flesh to the point of starvation, or neglect the necessary medical treatment, or permit age to overrun us. WE WILL DIE!Thats a fact. But then what is so bad about that? To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord!!! (2Cor5:8,9). We say we are seeking the face of God!!! When flesh sees the face of God, it will DIE! So if we, as we say, are seeking the face of God, we are seeking the death of the flesh. And satan has ably taught us to fear death (which, again is nothing. Only the alive in the flesh fear death.)Am I saying that we, as believers, should have a death wish? Of course not. I am merely trying to get across to you the great importance we attach to our flesh. After all, there are really only three basic categories of sin. The lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye, and the pride of life ( 1 Jn 2:16). And all three of these are things of the flesh!!!As believers, we know that satan cannot kill us.....Unless we give him permission. So the only real area of our lives he can use to deceive and confuse us is in the area of the soul (mind). He uses our spoken words against us. I think Ive got an ulcer. I feel so weak. I just too tired. My stomach hurts. Im taking a migraine. And so on. He uses our natural fleshy thoughts about sex, drinking, feeling good, being accepted, peer pressure, to lure us into addictions that are more than WE can bare. He uses our fleshly desire to dominate and control to lure us into witchcraft, mind control, hypnotism and other rebellions.Satan will use any and every means that we will permit him, to keep our spirit man from becoming and being the dominant factor of our life. He knows that when the spirit of man becomes alive through the Spirit of God, all his hard work on us is crumbling before his eyes.Page 5As we submit ourselves to God, and resist the devil. He has no choice but to flee. As we renew our mind through communion with Jesus, we take on the mind of Christ. And That Mind had no footholds for the devil to climb in. Will be be perfect and flawless. I seriously doubt it. If we become COMPLETELY like Jesus, we will be perfect and flawless and we will go home to the Father. Either way, WE WIN!END
