For God did not give us a spirit of timidity or cowardice or fear, but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of sound judgment and personal discipline [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control].
2 Timothy 1:7
The pastor said Self had seen a psychiatrist and family doctor but hadn't been hospitalized. Rammell said Self told him he was taking medicine for depression and anxiety, but he was becoming particularly unstable over the weekend.
Self, a faithful churchgoer with a private investigation business and law enforcement background, went out of his way to help others, Rammell said at a news conference Monday. But he started struggling with mental illness about two and a half months ago.
"At the end of the day, we were all unable to help our friend," he said, "and the result was his mental health carried him to an act that the Roger Self we all knew would have, without a doubt, called insane and evil."
Somewhere, something Roger did or failed to do opened up a door to the destroyer.

Pastor: Mental illness drove N.C. man to ram car into his family, killing 2
Roger Self had been (treated ?) made worse for depression and anxiety that seemed to become more intense in the two and a half months preceding Sunday's deadly crash, said the Rev. Austin Rammell of Venture Church in Dallas, North Carolina. The pastor, who is a close family friend, said Self opened up about his problems about 10 weeks ago, when he asked his son to take his guns away from him.

Depression in a Christian is a sign of a life not right with Jesus.
Without faith it is impossible to please God.
We may be under attack from the enemy but we overcome by the Blood of Jesus and the Living Word of God and fervent prayers.
Victory is ours if we are living holy and pleasing lives to God, we claim it in Jesus powerful name.

There is power in the blood of Jesus, and yet this spiritually dead church pastor sent this man to see a failed psychiatrist and take these dangerous, these drugs of failure and death.
This is the judgment beginning at the house of God, a spiritually dead, powerless, apostate church that puts it's trust more in this corrupt world.
Innocent people die when we turn over control of our mind to drugs or lying demons.

The spirit of God will not always strive with men.
If you claim to be a Christian and are living in sin, this is what you are facing, judgment, this life is serious and no game.

What did he do to open himself up to oppression from Satan and his demons ?
Jesus always gives those who trust in Him peace and a sound mind.
The medical profession is a failure, their drugs led to this horrific slaughter by this man.
The media and the CORRUPT, GREEDY system will continue to lie and cover up the truth because there are billions of dollars to be made with this poison, this garbage, called medicine.

This evil and unavoidable tragedy is an example and a warning to all those who put their trust in the unspiritual, anti-Christ world system of dealing with spiritual matters and their failed drugs than they do in Jesus .
Amen Marcel.
ReplyDeleteThe church system must TURN AWAY from the worlds way of doing things,
The world's ways are DEATH dealing.
They are WORSE than worthless!
The Scriptures tell us how to deal with UNCLEAN Spirits, but the church system has REJECTED those ways and turn to the useless ways of the world.
This article is a case in point.
Actually ordering our lives as JESUS taught us is imperative. We must be DOERS of The Word and not hearers only, deceiving our own selves.
Unfortunately, churches DO NOT teach this any more.
No Discipleship, no actual walk. Just cheap grace and easy believism. It DOES NOT WORK ! It makes for SHIPWRECK as in the article above.
The pastors must wake up and have the courage to SPEAK THE TRUTH+ to their people. They will probably be fired, but SPEAK IT ANYWAY !
Thank you for this good post and warning Marcel.

DeleteAs it was in Jeremiah's day with backslid, deaf and stubborn unto death Israel, the pastors are past waking up and now the chickens have come home to roost.

THE SPIRIT NOT STRIVING ALWAYS

Thanks brother.
Hi Marcel,
ReplyDeleteI quickly read your post and if I may add a connection in the Scripture quoted.
You wrote: “We may be under attack from the enemy but we overcome by the Blood of Jesus and the Living Word of God and fervent prayers.”
It is written in The Holy Word of God that, “we (true born again believers) “Overcame by the blood of the Lamb and the Word of THEIR TESTIMONY’” Rev 12:11 Without a true testimony of what Jesus Christ has done in our lives; transforming from darkness to His Light, lost to being found, etc., we are not overcomers. Kinda like Simon the Sorcerer who ran around w the disciples/apostles, but ended up actually being the prime disguise as first pope with all his sorceries. The Bible never states that He ever repented. Many say “fervent” prayers; skipping past the being born again process and they amount to nothing but a weak and debilitated hill of beans. We need to be careful how we quote the Word of God. Easy for many to think bec they say they pray, and all is well! NOT! It’s almost the same as saying/quoting, “yes, I know Jesus, but that is not what the Scriptures teach. What is written is that what God calls out, When He will say, “Depart from
me, I NEVER KNEW YOU; not why didn’t you know Him. We can profess to know Him all we want, but there is a Huge difference between Him knowing us. God bless (I love how The Lord continually affirms how all roads just keep leading to Rome! ) God Bless You!

DeleteHi Joanne,
I agree with you.
Thank you for the words of truth.
I disagree with you on this
(I love how The Lord continually affirms how all roads just keep leading to Rome!)
The devil has many tricks in his bag, not just Rome.
The Steven ben nun cult of deception has gotten you to focus on only 1 of them as he diverts you away and get you to ignore the others.
Amen Marcel!
ReplyDeleteMaybe because when I got saved, The Lord changed my life and one of the ways He did so was exposing and delivering me from the hypocritical lies I was living which became part of my testimony; maybe that’s why I tend to keep bringing it up. Pray for me! : )
Jesus commands us to watch and part of that is deciphering through the lies to get to the truth; I’m still learning here. Jesus IS the ONLY Way, The Truth, AND The Life. Keeping our first love for The Savior is THE most critical yet wonderful place to strive from for me; no cult can take that away.
Matthew 18:3-4 (KJV)
3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
God bless
I do pray for you and need your prayers also.
ReplyDeleteAs with you, being greatly deceive by the paganized church of Rome my drive is to expose all of the frauds not just 1 of them.
We live in a world of greatest deception since God created man.
In case you missed this, just posted it
But by the grace of God we are blessed to live another day.
Death is coming faster and faster upon so many.
