Apostle Gathering News Letter Vol. 22

The Brother from Africa, Daniel Ekechukwu who was raised from the dead said, that the Lord had told him the mansions are ready but the Body of Christ is not. This really caught my attention because I had been wrestling with this letter for some time.

This Apostles Gathering after the command of the Lord Delivered to me in Sept. of 1996 has always been about Calling the Church of Jesus Christ to Order. I knew this from the first day because the Lord had been talking to and teaching me about Calling His Church to Order for five years prior to the Command.

It has never been about Titles, or validating men to gender their own pride. The Lord had crushed me prior to the Command, so that it would not be delivered in pride.

I have needed to write this letter for some time now. I owe an apology to many. I have needed some time to back off from all the noise; to seek the Lord’s Will concerning this work.

When the Lord gave me the Command to Gather His Apostles, He let me know that discernments were needful, He placed me in a position few men if any have had to stand in, for at least this generation. I can tell you that only at the Command of the Lord Jesus would I stand in that place. The Command was delivered into a time where the doctrines of men and devils have been at work for almost 2000 years.

What I write in this letter is important to the Body of Christ. If we don’t have the understanding of what I write about here, then Satan will continue to drive the Church.

Eph 4:14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

I have not understood why so many have trouble understanding and applying many of the warnings and examples in the Word of God to the present day realities. We must understand that the men writing the scriptures were NOT walking out their walk with the Lord in a Social Club Setting. I have noticed that those who have a greater understanding of scriptures are those who have been called out by the Lord to walk even as the first Apostles were called, led by the Holy Ghost.

At the Last meeting, which was held in Knoxville Tennessee, we tried very hard to get a video stream out to the Internet as we had intended. Dale Climie was handling the technical side of that work and did a great job. He was prepared and worked hard to establish the feed. However, we were only there the two days and there was no time to call the phone company and have them send out a technician to check their line.

Having said that and in the natural that is true. I was praying at four in the morning on the second day and the Lord let me know the feed was not going to happen. As a result of that word from the Lord, I called Dale first thing in the morning and told him if we couldn’t get it going by 11a.m. to just let it go.

I had questioned the Lord in the days prior as to why there were not more of the Body of Christ attending and involved in the work. As I was driving home from that meeting in Knoxville, the Lord told me that the FOOLISHNESS must be removed from our midst.

In February, the Lord spoke to me and fairly sternly I might add, that He had called this Apostles Gathering and He had NOT Canceled the Call and that the FOOLISHNESS MUST BE REMOVED. This foolishness is not just among any particular part of the Church but is rife throughout the Church. Therefore this letter must deal with that subject before we can go on.

A true servant of God is a servant to all. Moses was a servant of God and was a servant to all. Jesus acted as a servant of God and was a servant to all. Many have varying understanding of what this would mean. Moses and Jesus were servants to all. What did they serve to all? Did they serve the Will of the People? Did they serve their own will to the people? No they served the Will of God to the People. Many will not accept a servant of God as a servant of God unless that servant personally serves their will.

So many in this day are trying to serve the will of the people so much so, that many have come to think that their will is above all, even the Will of God. Many ministries in our times have become very great in ministering to the will of the people. Many more desire to be just as great in the same ways. Even the way many speak of Winning souls, it makes many think they are the prize. Jesus is the Prize and if you make it through this life without calling on Him to save you, You will Lose. And if you are saved, Your will must decrease and His Will must increase in you. That is the Truth. These false ideas are a sign of the times we live in.

Many have written and debated about authority in the Church. The Lord has not changed His ways. The word hierarchy should not even be used in trying to understand Kingdom authority. But we must understand that there is a delegated authority in any Kingdom or any society. If there is no order or authority or order of authority then there is only chaos and anarchy. Satan for two thousand years has been trying to do away with God’s delegated authority in the earth. Rebellion, chaos and anarchy in the Church, in the Kingdom of God, serve’s only the purpose and will of Satan.

God has Never given power of attorney to form committees of any kind to vote on His Doctrine, Order or Ways. He Never has. In the Lord’s Order and Ways He delegates authority to accomplish His Will in the Earth. If the Lord comes to you and asks you to do something for Him, He will give you the authority to carry it out. If He didn’t then He would be found unfaithful. When this time is over and we all stand before the Lord, we will see that He gave every command He needed to perfectly and that He was there to back it up perfectly. We will all see that He is and was Faithful and True.

If the Lord gave you a calling to walk out, He would expect you to do it at all cost, to keep it on course and to seek Him continually for the direction of that Calling or Command. Those who would oppose you would be opposing the Lord Himself, Even as it was with Moses or any other true servant of God. The Lord has continually been faithful to this work to Gather His Apostles. He has never let me down.

Remember Moses biggest mistake was to let the will of the congregation lead him just for a moment. The only thing that the will of the majority has ever built in the word of God is this world Babylon and the tower of Babel.

If you created a calling for yourself in presumption the Lord is not obliged to back you up. We in this age see so many who move in presumption it makes it hard to understand. There are so many who are imitating others. Again people, we have an Enemy who works overtime trying to make it look crazy and impossible. You need to have good discernment in these days we are called to.

We know that Moses was preordained by God, to be used by God, to deliver the People of Israel from Egypt. When the Lord finally decided to talk to Moses about this, Moses had been herding sheep in the desert for forty years. No man came looking to Vote for Moses and that would include Moses himself. Moses argued with God because he didn’t feel he was the one for the job. But he had to do it anyway. HE HAD NO CHOICE. Moses had been stripped of the things of the world and of the pride that caused him to kill the Egyptian. God is the same today as He was then.

The people of God then as now were a nation of people led by God. God did not become a Sunday School teacher in a Social Club Setting. Neither has he led his people to a Social Club. I mention this because in the mentality of the Social Club Order, these things seem to be hard to grasp. Walking out your Salvation with the Lord is a Journey and we in turn, are called upon to help deliver others into His magnificent Salvation (out of Egypt). We can’t do that efficiently without His Power to deliver and we can’t walk in that Power, when we are continually doing the things the Lord Hates.

With Korah, (Numbers 16), Jezebel (1Kings 21), and with Judas, they were going to have it their way, no matter what or who had to die. With Judas it was the Son of God Himself. Let’s look at Korah and Jezebel. Why? Because this same spirit is alive and well and living in the Churches. You must have good understanding or you will be caught up in it, serving it to destroy ministries and God ordained servants or driven by it to turn your back on the servants of God.

Num 16:1 Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men:

Num 16:2 And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:

Num 16:3 And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?

These two hundred and fifty princes, famous men of renown, you can be sure they looked better and sounded better than Moses. After all Moses had not been living as a prince in the city, but rather as a sheepherder in the deserts. They were definitely filled with pride. I have had this same spirit oppose me time and time again. It is exactly the same as written in the Word of God. (Are we not all as pretty and smart as Cary? Are we not all Apostles?) It’s not just working among Apostles. Example (Are we not all Christians and Holy before God?) Let’s go on with the word of God here and see what God thinks about this spirit….

Num 16:19 And Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the congregation.

Num 16:21 Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.

Num 16:22 And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregation?

Num 16:24 Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.

Num 16:25 And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.

Num 16:26 And he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest ye be consumed in all their sins.

Num 16:27 So they gat up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little children.

Num 16:28 And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of mine own mind.

Num 16:31 And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them:

Num 16:32 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.

Num 16:33 They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation.

Num 16:34 And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also.

Num 16:35 And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.

There is Definite Evidence here that God Almighty really Hates this spirit and will not tolerate it. Yes, thank God we live in a time of Grace. But I have seen men die and become paralyzed and many other judgments come against them, just for opposing what God has called me to do in the Past. I have seen the authority of God in His Servants at work both in this calling and when I was in Asia… I can tell you many true stories that I have witnessed. We need to understand the Word and the Will of God. As we see in the next verse the very next day the congregation turned on Moses and Aaron again…

Num 16:41 But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye have killed the people of the LORD.

Num 16:42 And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared.

Num 16:45 Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.

Num 16:46 And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly unto the congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from the LORD; the plague is begun.

Num 16:47 And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.

Num 16:48 And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.

Num 16:49 Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah.

As we can see, Moses made intercession for the people both times. Yet the plague that came next killed fourteen thousand and seven hundred over and above those who died with Korah. The people of God had been told the first time to separate from the rebellion. Num 16:26 And he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest ye be consumed in all their sins

You have to see this very clearly. If the Lord had not intervened so mightily, those two hundred and fifty princes famous and of renown would have captured or killed Moses and Aaron. The Nation of Israel would not have been able to go any further. They would have lost the God ordained leadership with the ability to lead them to the promised land. That is even if God had not destroyed them first.

Are we to be as . 2Ti 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Does this please God? Do some not learn these lessons because it doesn’t seem relevant to their walk? These lessons are very relevant to us and to our time. The Social Club mentality and teachings say we must accept all and all unrighteousness. Everyone has a right to his or her opinion. If we oppose the evil we will be social outcast. No one will like us or want us around. Remember we cannot act as the cursed and be Blessed. Satan holds ministries and ministers appointed by God hostage, by this same spirit. Actually it is intended to hold the entire Body of Christ hostage to neutralize the greatest power on earth.

With the example of Jezebel we see Jezebel usurping the authority of her husband the King of Israel. She starts right off having a man killed who stood between them and what they wanted. She did it using the Kings authority. The Queens authority would not have been enough to order the wrongful death of Naboth.

1Ki 21:1 And it came to pass after these things, that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, hard by the palace of Ahab king of Samaria.

1Ki 21:2 And Ahab spake unto Naboth, saying, Give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, because it is near unto my house: and I will give thee for it a better vineyard than it; or, if it seem good to thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money.

1Ki 21:3 And Naboth said to Ahab, The LORD forbid it me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers unto thee.

1Ki 21:4 And Ahab came into his house heavy and displeased because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him: for he had said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And he laid him down upon his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no bread.

1Ki 21:5 But Jezebel his wife came to him, and said unto him, Why is thy spirit so sad, that thou eatest no bread?

As we see here Jezebel began to take over as her husband was offended and brooding.

1Ki 21:6 And he said unto her, Because I spake unto Naboth the Jezreelite, and said unto him, Give me thy vineyard for money; or else, if it please thee, I will give thee another vineyard for it: and he answered, I will not give thee my vineyard.

1Ki 21:7 And Jezebel his wife said unto him, Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? arise, and eat bread, and let thine heart be merry: I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.

Here we see that she really thought that because Ahab was King all things were lawful to him. There was No Fear of the Almighty God.

1Ki 21:8 So she wrote letters in Ahab's name, and sealed them with his seal, and sent the letters unto the elders and to the nobles that were in his city, dwelling with Naboth.

1Ki 21:9 And she wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people:

1Ki 21:10 And set two men, sons of Belial, before him, to bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst blaspheme God and the king. And then carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.

1Ki 21:11 And the men of his city, even the elders and the nobles who were the inhabitants in his city, did as Jezebel had sent unto them, and as it was written in the letters which she had sent unto them.

1Ki 21:13 And there came in two men, children of Belial, and sat before him: and the men of Belial witnessed against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth did blaspheme God and the king. Then they carried him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones, that he died.

1Ki 21:15 And it came to pass, when Jezebel heard that Naboth was stoned, and was dead, that Jezebel said to Ahab, Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give thee for money: for Naboth is not alive, but dead.

1Ki 21:16 And it came to pass, when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab rose up to go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession of it.

There is much scripture discussing Jezebel. From this time on she acted as the King of Israel even to putting to death the prophets of God who opposed her. So let’s look at how God felt about this…

1Ki 21:18 Arise, go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, which is in Samaria: behold, he is in the vineyard of Naboth, whither he is gone down to possess it.

1Ki 21:19 And thou shalt speak unto him, saying, Thus saith the LORD, Hast thou killed, and also taken possession? And thou shalt speak unto him, saying, Thus saith the LORD, In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth shall dogs lick thy blood, even thine.

1Ki 21:20 And Ahab said to Elijah, Hast thou found me, O mine enemy? And he answered, I have found thee: because thou hast sold thyself to work evil in the sight of the LORD.

1Ki 21:21 Behold, I will bring evil upon thee, and will take away thy posterity, and will cut off from Ahab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel,

1Ki 21:22 And will make thine house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah, for the provocation wherewith thou hast provoked me to anger, and made Israel to sin.

1Ki 21:23 And of Jezebel also spake the LORD, saying, The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel.

1Ki 21:24 Him that dieth of Ahab in the city the dogs shall eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air eat.

1Ki 21:25 But there was none like unto Ahab, which did sell himself to work wickedness in the sight of the LORD, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.

Whether we like it or not, God held Ahab responsible for Jezebel’s actions. It is the Order of Authority in God, Creator of all things. Are you looking for someone with authority so you can usurp it and have your way? Are you letting someone usurp your authority so you can have your way? Are you in collusion with another to transplant your will and your opinion of how things should be? Again, this all over, like a plague. Does it plague the Body of Christ? (With no Doubt). Is there repentance? Yes, and the sooner the better.

2Ki 9:22 And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?

Ki 9:30 And when Jehu was come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her face, and tired her head, and looked out at a window.

2Ki 9:31 And as Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, Had Zimri peace, who slew his master?

2Ki 9:32 And he lifted up his face to the window, and said, Who is on my side? who? And there looked out to him two or three eunuchs.

2Ki 9:33 And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down: and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and he trode her under foot.

2Ki 9:34 And when he was come in, he did eat and drink, and said, Go, see now this cursed woman, and bury her: for she is a king's daughter.

2Ki 9:35 And they went to bury her: but they found no more of her than the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands.

2Ki 9:36 Wherefore they came again, and told him. And he said, This is the word of the LORD, which he spake by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, In the portion of Jezreel shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel

Again, DEFINITE EVIDENCE THAT GOD HATES THIS SPIRIT. Before the first Apostles Gathering there was a couple who came to this work. She called herself a prophet and he an Apostle and a Doctor. She had called me on the phone and began prophesying that there should be a preliminary Gathering in Jerusalem. They would take care of it and pay for me to go. Even as she was prophesying I knew it wasn’t of God. It was like the Lord had given me a meter that day that let me know what was of God and what was not.

I didn’t respond to it. But her husband began to act like it was straight from the throne of God. They convinced another who was linked to my web site. The three of them began to curse me from the pit of hell itself because I could not and would not go along with it. But I had heard from God. This word from the Lord came on June 9, 1998. The Lord let me know that there was to be no Gathering in Jerusalem then He said, "This Gathering of My Apostles under My Command is about the bringing forth of the New Jerusalem. It is about the fulfillment of the Times of the Gentiles. It is in this fulfilling of the End Times of the Gentiles that my beloved Israel shall be provoked to jealousy. Use caution move not by the flesh, move not by power nor by might but by my Spirit saith the Lord."

These three people continued constantly to curse me personally and do all they could to slander me everywhere. I had told them and the man they had recruited that they were acting as Ahab and Jezebel. A year later the man they had recruited, wrote me a very long letter telling me that I was right about them being an Ahab and Jezebel. He apologized and asked me to forgive him. He told me that he had lost everything, his ministry, his money and his wife. I felt bad for him. I forgave him that was no problem but I didn’t feel like I could trust him again. God may not open up the earth and swallow people up alive in these days but the judgments do surely come. We must walk in the fear of God. This is just one example I have shared with you in this letter there are other examples I could give.

Judas was guilty of the same sins he was going to have his own way even if it meant betraying the Son of the living God. His own will, was more important than anything else. Was God pleased with him? We all know it had to be but how did God respond to it?

Act 1:18 Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.

Act 1:19 And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of blood.

Act 1:20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.

Whether you betray the Lord Himself or one of His Servants to increase your will and stature in any way, you are guilty of the same sin and can even be compared to Satan, Korah, Jezebel, Judas and there are more.

What of Peter? Mat 16:21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.

Mat 16:22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.

Mat 16:23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.

Peter here was putting the will of man against the will of God and the Lord looked straight at him and said, get thee behind me Satan, thou are an offence to me because you savor not the things of God, but those that be of men. Can’t get much clearer than that. We know that Peter being in the flesh went on to deny the Lord. But we also know that Peter went through a horrendous time of repentance and great fear.

Mat 16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

Mat 16:25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.

Mat 16:26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Mat 16:27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

These are the attributes of the true Christian following the Lord. Where is it? The World wants to know. These are the Characteristics the Apostles should be reflecting as we Gather seeking the Glory of God under His Command.

The Korah, Jezebel and Judas spirit is not of God, in fact it is the same spirit as Lucifer

sa 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

Isa 14:13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:

Isa 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.

We see here how Lucifer put his will above the Will of God. It is the same spirit and it is operating in many who call themselves Christian. We have to separate from that spirit. It is not the spirit of God. Are those walking in that spirit really Christian? If you act like the devil, you can surely be identified with him, by the congregation of God’s people and they don’t have to share in your curse. We all can, by the act of our own will, walk into a cursed place, just like we can with any sin. We must understand what takes us into a cursed position and avoid it at all cost... Have the fear of God, which is the beginning of Wisdom.

Rom 16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.

Rom 16:18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple

Part of the Maturing process in the Lord is, understanding that your will won’t get it done and if it does it is not God’s best for you.

I do not like to see and be reminded of the condition of the Body of Christ right now. I take no pleasure at all in writing about the problems I see. But the foolishness has to be identified and put away from us in order to move on with God for what He has prepared for His Bride.

As I said in the beginning of this letter the Lord has placed me in a different position. To Gather everyone who says they are an Apostle or Prophet is to build a den of devils. There has to be discernments and righteous judgments made. I have had to tell many that I didn’t think they were an Apostle or Prophet. If they thought to introduce a false doctrine in our midst I have had to speak against it and separate from it. Because of this, which is very necessary, I have been attacked continually over the last five years like no man I have ever seen. I have talked with the same haughty spirit on the internet a thousand times. The attacks are intended to stop this work and to keep me from doing my job properly as it is with any called of God. There have been times that I have been overwhelmed. This is not boasting nor am I complaining it is just fact. If you have been curious as to why I haven’t written, know that I needed some quiet and peace even to seek my own healing.

Speaking of those who say they are Apostles and are not, some are really a problem. I have seen some real deceptions going on that can only be described as demonic, in people who claim to be and on the surface seem to be christians. One of the reasons the Gathering location cannot be published abroad is because one woman who said she is The Prophet of God for these last days wrote the hotel in Atlanta with some crazy stuff, trying to get the hotel to refuse us. What she wrote and the many ways that she has cursed me in the past for not agreeing with her, is straight from the pit of Hell. I later found out that this woman thinks she is the Lord. I have called her psychotic and she is constantly being deceptive in her many identities. These things are an embarrassment to all Christianity.

Another man, who is a Mormon, came to the first gathering telling everyone he was an Apostle and that he was demon possessed. This man told me in that Gathering that every time I spoke about the Apostles Gathering the demon in him wanted to go up to the front and destroy everything. This man came back on the internet about a year later saying he had been delivered. I had told him I didn’t think he was an Apostle. He showed up at the Gathering in Oklahoma and came up to the line with the other Apostles even though he knew I didn’t agree with him about his calling. Later he created a scenario, I guess that was supposed to make him an Elder as well. It was ridiculous…no other way to put it. But that same demon in him began again to destroy this work in every way he could.

There have been many who let me know straight out if I didn’t give them what they wanted, they would destroy the work and me. This is extortion and the very same spirit that resides in the terrorism we see today. These kinds of people have been in the churches and know how to talk the talk to destroy. I tell you before God, that this kind will say absolutely anything, it is demonic. Here is what I meant by being Driven by that spirit. If you receive what these who have been offended say, as though they are the righteousness of God, and turn your back on the true Servants of God due to their testimony, then you are being driven, by this spirit of Satan that does work in the Churches. We should expect them, after all Satan is not going to just let us Call the Church to Order without any opposition. But we must understand how they work in our midst and rebuke them and turn from them. The Righteous cannot keep silent continually while the unrighteous attempt to drive the people of God.

These judgments that I write about here, are not just my opinion. The Elders have been witnesses to these things as well. I do have Godly counsel in this work and I do use them.

The Apostles Gathering was never intended by God to just be a continuation of what goes on in the Churches and systems of men now. The Lord is Calling His Church to Order, His Order and it is likened to a journey!

I have lost count of how many men thought I should just step down and aside once they heard of the Command. I have lost count of how many men thought the Apostles Gathering was complete as soon as they came along side. I have watched many competing for some obscure position. I have watched many working as politicians to bring all to themselves. There is no competition. There is only obedience to the Lord’s Will. He the Lord, will give each man his work and it will not have to kill or destroy another mans calling. But if you act like Korah, Jezebel or Judas you could disqualify yourself from any inheritance.

Each one of us is held responsible and accountable for how we act as an individual. There have even been some who want to hold me responsible for the stand that others have taken. God does not hold me accountable if you have decided to Re-Define this work and bring it to yourself. If you have decided that you are the supreme word on the doctrines of God and others don’t agree, I am not responsible for your stand. If you decide that you must be Adversarial in order to feel important. You alone are responsible for taking that stand. If you feel that speaking contemptuously of others as though you have the greater wisdom will elevate you in some way. You are responsible for that foolishness no one else.

Some have attacked just because Paul challenged Peter about the circumcision so I guess they thought it was an apostolic thing to do. The first Apostles had some issues that needed to be addressed. We will too. But there is none being held under the law by us. There is no new doctrine to instate. There is a simplicity in the Gospel that must not be overlooked this is the way God designed it to be.

Some have attacked for no reason at all except their desire to defeat me in front of many. I guess they thought it would make them the leader, like little children playing king of the hill.

Many of Satan’s tactics are exactly like men conduct wars. One strategy is to divide and conquer. He uses propaganda which usually is slander and accusations. In any war the enemy wants to take out the highest ranking officers as soon as possible. The enemies start propaganda campaigns that are designed to cause men to desert. And quite frankly the ultimate goal of the enemy would be to have the soldiers shoot their own leadership in the back, then desert in chaos and confusion. It is not that difficult to recognize what Satan is doing in our midst. It is nothing new. Because of all these tactics I have not been able to put links to others on my web site or even to have a guest book. We as Christians, followers of Christ, cannot lend our selves to serve Satan’s interest. Satan uses pride and offenses. Satan tells many they have been offended when in truth they have not been offended. Be Alert. Be Aware.

I have wanted for some time now to publish some of the prayers and words from the prayer warriors the Lord has called along side this work. But I have not wanted to subject them to this kind of warfare. There has been a very real desperation in Satan to stop this work. Satan knows what time it is even if many of the Saints do not. Satan does not want the Apostles to come forth and Call the Church to Order.

The foundations of the Church are broken by two thousand years of men changing things to their understanding or opinion of how it should be, or just to bring it to themselves. We need to get back to the very basics of the faith of Jesus Christ. That means adhering to the words and exhortation of the first Apostles and the Lord Himself and tossing out those things planted by men and devils. It means having to say NO to those who would oppose and cause only divisions and strife.

All that I have written here so far has taken place in every Apostles Gathering to date. Some were better than others. The Lord in His Grace has Blessed us in spite of these things. But as long as all this foolishness is going on in our midst we are not going to see the Glory of God poured out on us.

The Lord gave me this analogy to describe some of what has been going on. There is a stump sticking out through the foundation. The Apostles form a 360-degree circle around it and each put a rope on it and begins to pull it towards themselves. With each pulling towards themselves it cancels the power of all. This is what many have been doing in approaching this Apostles Gathering. It is foolishness.

After the first Gathering I knew that I had to seek the Lord for every step one at a time. I knew that it had to be done decently and in order. If I socialized with all going into the Gatherings I would hear perhaps fifty different ideas as to what we should do. But the Lord does not do things that way. If all those different ideas were workable, in the Holy Ghost that would be different. The reason they usually are not, is because that is not the way the Lord leads. I have had to seek the Lord every step of the way.

We have had men we don’t know just show up, saying they have a message from the Lord and they fully expect at least one of the sessions to be turned over to them. Some won’t attend unless they can have their way. It would seem that almost everyone who doesn’t get his or her way, is offended. It is difficult to keep this work on course when so many are trying to pull it to themselves.

How many are saying, if it isn’t about me then it isn’t of God, or many such things and worse. I guess they think that God wants to raise up a few stars now in this time. I don’t think so, I really think it is time for His Body to stand up in the Fullness and Stature of Jesus Christ. This requires making right decisions and doing what is pleasing to the Father.

Many of the characteristics I have mentioned in this letter are not of God. It is not just among the Apostles or any particular section of the Body. But we cannot allow foolishness to dictate in the work of the Lord. We are called to maturity. It is time to walk in it. It won’t happen by spiritual osmosis. God has given us a free will of that there is no doubt. You choose how you respond to the Lord and others. I don’t like writing about these problems anymore than anyone likes hearing about them. We even see new Churches popping up that have this in their name, _______ Church of the Free Will. Another sign, of the times of apostasy.

There have been some of you who have contacted me lately with your testimony. I wanted to get this letter out before going on. Those of us Apostles who do Gather according to the Command I have received of the Lord, must be Sincere in doing things the Lord’s way. The Lord is not calling for this for the purpose of exalting men’s egos. It really is about Calling His Church, His Body to Order. All of us who love the Lord should rejoice that the time is now and I am not talking only to Apostles.

I am very aware that I will have to stand before the Lord being held accountable for this Gathering of His Apostles. I am also very aware in the Spirit that it is all being recorded. It does matter how we act. I have heard from so many who are really looking for the True Church of our Lord. The Church should be a reflection of Jesus and the Word, which are one. When the world sees the Church acting like the world, it is not good. They don’t want any part of it. But anyone who has met the Lord cannot get enough of Him. So it should be with His Body, His People a reflection of Jesus.

I know that there are many who would rather just say I am deceived. And in these days, the way things are, I understand why it could be hard to believe. All I can do is tell you that it has been confirmed over and over again by the Lord and many prophets of God. From all I have been through in the past six years, I can assure all that Satan knows God gave the Command for this Gathering of the Lord’s Apostles.

I have been asking the Lord about the next Apostles Gathering. All I have been hearing is that this letter must be written first. Truly the Folly that I have described in this letter, will prophit no one. I know that I don’t want any part of it and there are others who agree. It is better that we Gather in small numbers True Apostles sincere in seeking God for His Glory to walk out these latter Days in His Glory and Power.

If you are thinking that God has called for this Apostles Gathering to give you the key to some perceived stardom, then you don’t have good understanding. If all things must be about you then you are not Kingdom minded and will have problems in anything the Lord is about to do. There is much to be done. I don’t want to neglect the righteous because I am too busy dealing with those who want what they want or else. It isn’t right.

Some think that I go looking for Apostles and some are even offended because I don’t approach them first. All I have been able to do is to get the word of this Command out, as best I can. I do not presume any are Apostles. It is up to them to come to this Command or not. We ask all who come for a written testimony of their walk with the Lord and to tell us why they say they are an Apostle. Please put Apostle Testimony in the subject line of your email.

In light of the things I have described in this letter it has occurred to me many times that we all need to speak the Lord’s Prayer daily.

Mat 6:9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

Mat 6:13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

The angels need to hear, the devils need to hear and our own hearts and minds need to hear and reaffirm these words daily. It is what the Lord has told us to pray.

Not all are walking in the Foolishness that has been described in this letter and all the folly we have seen, is not listed in here. There are good sincere and wise Apostles. I have met many good people in this work to Gather the Lord’s Apostles. But the Foolishness that has tried to plague this work must be removed.

2Ti 3:8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.

2Ti 3:9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.

This Newsletter has gone long. I will let you know when I hear from the Lord concerning the next Apostles Gathering. I already have a witness to an Apostles Gathering in Sept. However I have been asking the Lord about a meeting before then.

This letter has been extremely hard to write. We really are in a critical time where the Body of Christ needs to awake and take it’s God Ordained place. I pray that this letter will help many to understand.

God Bless You all. I love you and Pray that the Lord will keep you in His Perfect Will.
