"If the Shoe Fits"
"A good man out of the good treasure of his heart
bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his
heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth
speaketh"
(Luke 6:45).
by Katie Stewart
Dear "If the Shoe Fits",
'm not getting through to you. You're dull of hearing.
You are the blind, leading the blind. You really have lost your First Love. I wish
I could get you to see that, but I can't. You're hard-hearted and self-deceived.
But He loves you, and so I will try one more time.
The reason I know you do not love the LORD is because you do not love His
Word - and the Word is GOD. I will try to demonstrate.
You are a bitter person, and you have no patience.The trying of your faith is supposed
to work patience, but because your "faith" does not work by love, you do
not have real faith to be tried for patience. That's why you don't have patience!
Your only Hope is to LOVE The WORD. If you had the patience to minister His Word,
then you would minister His Word. You do show me your "faith" by your work.
Your aversion to use the Word describes to me, a person who does not live by every
Word that proceeds out of GOD's mouth. You have no zeal for Him. You won't talk Him.
You won't think Him. You won't conform to Him. I have tried to fellowship with you,
around, and in Him, and you won't. You simply won't do it! You refuse to speak the
Word with me! I know you are not "Scriptuallly illiterate", and that's
where your sin lies. You know better! "Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not,
to him it is sin" (James 4:17 ).
Please, ask yourself, "Why don't I minister the Word?" The only answer
is that you don't have a heart for it. "A
good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good;
and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is
evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh"
(Luke 6:45). Your opinion, while highly treasured
in your own heart, is an evil replacement for, "what
saith the Scripture?" (Romans 4:3). Please
try to see, that Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness.
Your righteousness, my righteousness, even Abraham's righteousness, is soley based
on believing what GOD said !! Your opinion must be supported by
"what saith the Scripture?", or else it's evil speaking. You have replaced His Word
with your own. And unless you carefully examine yourself, and repent, this self-deception
will cause the LORD of glory to judge you. Hebrews 10:37 "For yet a little while, and He that shall come will
come, and will not tarry."
Why don't you minister the Word? "Preach the
Word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering
and doctrine" (2 Timothy 4:2). "WITH ALL LONGSUFFERING AND DOCTRINE." Can you hear Him? You're supposed
to minister the Word with patience. Please, hear what the Spirit sayeth to you, a
professed member of His Church. You know better. I remember you when you did minister
the Word, instantly, in any time or season. You were young in the LORD, but you loved
Him, and you enjoyed sharing the Word. It was your Manna. You are so hard you can't
see the difference between then, and now.
on't you realize that the LORD JESUS is all but back
to gather His people, and that we have been enjoined to exhort one another, and so
much the more, as we see the day approaching? What must GOD do to you to cause your
dry bones to rise up again? If we will not judge ourselves we shall be judged. If
you believe as strongly that the LORD will deliver His Church from the wrath to come
in the 70th week of Daniel, as you do in living by every Word that proceeds out of
His mouth, then you are doomed to experience GOD's judgment in the Tribulation week.
I believe this completely, and it causes me much pain for you. Faith without works
is dead, dead, dead. Wisdom cries to you. Listen to what your future holds, depending
on your decision right now:
PROVERBS 1
"20
Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice
in the streets: 21 She crieth in the
chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth
her words, saying, 22 How long, ye simple
ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools
hate knowledge? 23 Turn you at My reproof:
behold, I will pour out my Spirit unto you, I will make known My Words unto you. 24 Because I have called, and
ye refused; I have stretched out My hand, and no man regarded; 25
But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and
would none of my reproof: 26 I
also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; 27 When your fear cometh as desolation,
and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon
you. 28 Then shall they call
upon Me, but I will not answer; they shall seek Me early, but they shall not find
Me: 29 For that they hated
knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:
30 They would none of My counsel: they despised all My reproof. 31 Therefore shall they eat of
the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices. 32
For the turning away of the simple shall slay
them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
33 But whoso hearkeneth unto Me shall dwell safely, and shall
be quiet from fear of evil."
I feel I've said all I can. To go on is unnecessary.
You will either listen, or you won't. But remember, Philadelphia was only promised
deliverance from "the hour of temptation" IF they had kept the Word of His patience. You have
no patience for His Word. I say this with as much love as I can. I plead with you,
with all my heart.
2 Timothy 2:25,26, "In
meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will
give them repentance to the acknowledging of the Truth; And that they may recover
themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will."
Beware. Your time is very short. The
LORD cometh. He is at the door. Even so LORD, come quickly. Are you listening?
2 Corinthians 6:2, "For He saith, I have
heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee:
behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of
Salvation." Isaiah
55:6, "Seek ye the
LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near:" Please. Please. Seek
Him now, right now! Tell Him you've lost your love, but you never will again. Remember,
Genesis 6:3, "the LORD said, My Spirit
shall not always strive with man." He is no fool. He will not be mocked.
Your Friend
P.S. If, by the time you read this, you have missed, what's commonly
called, the Rapture, or the First "Come Up Hither"
(Revelation 4:1), there is also a second "Come Up Hither" (Revelation 11:12). It's not quite yet too late to repent. There
is still a little time. Don't make this mistake (sin) twice.
John 9:39 "And
Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might
see; and that they which see might be made blind."
