Come Out and Be Ye Separate… What it Does NOT Mean

Regeneration, Repentance and Reformation

Taken from “Come Out and Be Ye Separate.”

Let me show what does not constitute
separation from the world.

The point is one which requires clearing up. There are many mistakes made about it. You will sometimes see sincere and well-meaning Christians doing things which God never intended them to do, in the matter of separation from the world, and honestly believing that they are in the path of duty. Their mistakes often do great harm. They give occasion to the wicked to ridicule all religion and supply them with an excuse for having none. They cause the way of truth to be evil spoken of, and add to the offence of the cross. I think it a plain duty to make…

Your Dread Champion is Standing With You! ~ by Deborah Waldron Fry, 9/8/19

“Beloved Warrior.  Whom shall you fear when your Dread Champion is standing with you?

If your God is for you, who can be against you?  Fear not!  I call you My Brave One.  I AM with you to deliver you and to rescue you.

The earth shakes and the foundations tremble at My consuming Fire; for I have seen your suffering, My Child.

I have parted the heavens and come down; the Brightness of My Presence chases the darkness and the storm clouds.

Yahweh has thundered from Heaven, the Voice of the Most High resounds with coals of Fire.  I take hold of you, My Warrior and I shall rescue you from those enemies who are too strong for you.

I train your hands for battle so that your arm can bend the bow.  I AM you with Strength and make your way perfect.

Your feet shall not slip for…

Take Away From Me the Noise of Your Songs

 

Amos 5:21-27 – I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies. Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts. Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols. But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream. Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel? But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves. Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the Lord, whose name is The God of hosts.

When I first reread this passage in Amos, a few things struck me.  First of all the Lord is bringing judgment on Israel for carrying on religious ceremony without true dedication to the Lord.  They sing songs and present their offerings while harboring idols.  I was reminded of how the Lord must view the heretical apostate mega church celebrations of today.  There is a lot of pomp and circumstance, yet little or no obedience to the Word of God.  The Lord does not look favorably upon worship of that type, no matter the hype, no matter the noise, no matter the show.  He actually “hates” it.

Modern “worship” music has taken on a distinct flavor of the world.  It is all about how well crafted the music is to get followers to think they are experiencing the presence of the Holy Spirit, when in fact they are simply experiencing the effect of their own emotions.  They mistake spiritual things for soulical. They think carnal things are an evidence of the presence of the Holy Spirit.  True worship of the Lord has been left behind and substituted with high-volume rock music where audience participation has been relegated to raising of hands and clapping instead of making their own voices heard above the din.  You can have the best musicians and songs crafted to tug at the heartstrings, and it may very well be something the Lord hates.  The Lord is looking for obedience and true worship, not a show, and not lyrics that compromise truth.

The Lord reminds Israel of their journey through the wilderness after disobeying the Lord.  They continued to present their sacrifices and grain offerings while carrying with them idols

Isaiah 10:1 – The Unrighteous Decree – July 31, 2019

The Master's Voice

“Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees, who deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless. What will you do on the day of reckoning, when disaster comes from afar? To whom will you run for help? Where will you leave your riches? Nothing will remain but to cringe among the captives or fall among the slain. Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away, his hand is still upraised.” (Isaiah 10:1-4) 

After hearing this prophecy on and off through the entire month of July, I received the full word on July 31, 2019, 11pm. This word made it clear to me that the nation of America (far from being made great again) will instead head in the opposite direction-…

The Taskmasters – September 1, 2019

The Master's Voice

⁶ And Joseph died, all his brothers, and all that generation. ⁷ But the children of Israel were fruitful and increased abundantly, they multiplied and grew exceedingly mighty; and the land was filled with them.

⁸ Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who did not know Joseph. ⁹ And he said to his people, “Look, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we; ¹⁰ come, let us deal shrewdly with them, lest they multiply, and it happen, in the event of war, that they also join our enemies and fight against us, and so go up out of the land.” ¹¹ Therefore they set taskmasters over them to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh supply cities, Pithom and Raamses. ¹² But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were in dread…
