I am beginning a long awaited and long considered series of teachings titled the “Spiritual Remnant of God” which will address and be addressed to a special group of God’s Servants who are few in the grand total of those who call themselves spiritual and/or religious but who are in fact the “faithful few” [Rev. 3:7-13] who will receive their crown from the Master one day.

This series will covers a multitude of material such as; how to identify one of these Servants who are part of the Spiritual Remnant, their character traits, gifts, callings, talents, worldview, religious view, spiritual view, their approach to the Christian Community, their life struggles, their life experience, their spiritual battles, their spiritual victories, cause and effect in their lives, purpose, etc. There will be no particular order in which these things are address, expect that they will be address, written about, and posted in real time as God speaks on this matter. Therefore following the series in real time while examining the world around you and your personal world at the same time will have the most spiritual impact.

Each individual who reads and interacts with this teaching series will be at a different place in their walk with and service to God; from the babe in Christ, standing on the shore looking at the river stretched out before them, who is struggling to understand their basic identity in Christ to the seasoned servant, who is standing far in the distance on the other shore having walking through the river and reached the other side, looking back longing to see others make it to their shores. There will be those who can identify very little with what I am going to write and then there will be those for whom it is a part of pass memories for them. Either way it will resonate with TRUTH in their spirits and God will use it to show each individual where, when, and how she or he needs to proceed.

I will make no apologies for the content of this teaching and those with what my Daddy use to call “thin skin” need to know in advance in order to benefit and grow from the teaching you will have to let go of your fragile ego and be willing to face the truth. “Itching ears” [2 Tim. 4:1-5] need not attempt to hear what God will be saying through this series, because you have a closed off religious spirit you will not understand, you will only suffer from irritation and frustration. The greatest form of LOVE tells the truth and calls for people to reach deep inside and look for their greatest potential; this series will do just that.

Look around people, the world is falling apart, America specifically is disintegrating, it is time for the Spiritual Remnant of God to understand their place and understand what God would have them do about what is happening around them.

Please take the time to look up any Scripture I quote or reference for yourself, as you should always do when someone is teaching or preaching. You have a responsibility before God to confirm His Word is being “rightly divided” [2 Tim 2:15]. Please know that any input you would like to give or any question you would like to ask will always be welcome. You may write me via the comment link provided.

Below I have included the original post from a while back titled “Remnant of God”.

Please begin this series by rereading this post.

Remnant of God

The current SPIRITUAL Remnant of God is those Followers of Christ who exhibit extraordinary devotion, being both proficient and spiritually gifted; these individuals are the faithful dependable heart of the church, given to prayer and are the core of both the local congregation and the universal Body of Christ.

The Body of Christ is made up of all who truly believe in Christ, but in the last days, there is and will be widespread apostasy; a remnant of devoted followers has been called out to keep the principles and commands of God alive and before the people and keep faith in Jesus’ atonement pure and alive. This remnant will bring forewarning of the arrival of the judgment, proclaims salvation through Christ Jesus alone, and heralds the approach of His second coming.

The Remnant will be exiled from the world and apostate church congregations, whether by choice or not, because they are at odds with the direction of the world and mere religious society. The remnant within the Body of Christ are what will remain once the established religious society, who often call themselves the corporate church, have departed from sincere devoted and brought about the ruin of the purity of Christianity and the Original Church. Of God’s people, many if not most will fall or have fallen away. God prunes His Church and the Remnant could well be all that remains; and He will prune them so that they are purified to His Standard.

These people are the militant spiritual warrior of the Body of Christ. These spiritual activists… confrontational, revolutionary, radical, combative individuals who continue to remind the Church and the world that God did, and does, provide a Standard which He expected, and expects, His people to lift up and present to the world.

The presence, release, and freedom given to the spiritual gift of prophecy is an identifying mark of a remnant church or the absence of the same can be an identifying mark of a church lacking the remnant.

My current focus of ministry is on the spiritual development of these individual…the remnant few. I am slowly divesting myself of all others to make room for helping these spiritual warriors develop the gifts, talents, callings, and abilities God has placed within them.

Spiritual/Political Disclaimer:

This blog will not be for the faint of heart or the easily offended. It will not be in any way politically correct. It will make every effort to share the truth in love, [Ephesians 4:11-16], to a decaying and dying society and church. I share what I share not to hurt, harm, or offend any person[s] or group; I do it because Christ’s Standard and Truth is not being represented by enough of His Followers and I do it out of love. I love enough to tell His Truth.

Ephesians 4:11-16 NKJV

¹¹And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, ¹²for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, ¹³till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; ¹⁴that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, ¹⁵but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— ¹⁶from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.
