Today’s topic: TATTOOS and my take on them and the bible’s point of view.
I am asked why as a Christian I continue to get tattoos. Well, because I like them and I do not think that they are law breakers. Sure if they were for the dead or if I was using them as some sort of worship, then yes; I would be in violation of God’s law.
“You shall not make any cuts in your body for the dead nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the LORD.” Leviticus 19:28 — New American Standard
I know quite a few people will say, “Yeah, what are the verses before and after? Are you taking them out of context?” No, I am not:
26 ‘You shall not eat anything with the blood, nor practice divination or soothsaying. 27 You shall not round off the side-growth of your heads nor harm the edges of your beard. 28 ‘You shall not make any cuts in your body for the dead nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the LORD. 29 ‘Do not profane your daughter by making her a harlot, so that the land will not fall to harlotry and the land become full of lewdness. 30 ‘You shall keep My sabbaths and revere My sanctuary; I am the LORD. 31 ‘Do not turn to mediums or spiritists; do not seek them out to be defiled by them. I am the LORD your God. Leviticus 19:26–31 — New American Standard
None of my tats are in memory of the dead. I believe that the issue is more heathen practices of old when a loved one died. The bereave would gash their face or arms as payment to the gods of death and the grave. Now as we are to have no other Gods, you can see why this practice was forbidden. I promise my tats are not for the dead.
19What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 20For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. - 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 King James
15Peter said, "Explain the parable to us." 16"Are you still so dull?" Jesus asked them. 17"Don't you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? 18But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these make a man 'unclean.' 19For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. 20These are what make a man 'unclean'; but eating with unwashed hands does not make him 'unclean.' " - Matthew 15:16-20 King James
16Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? 17If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. - 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 King James
My understanding of these passages are that we may eat what ever we want, it is going to pass through our stomachs and then out of them. Of course we don’t want to hurt our bodies by eating too much “unhealthy” food! We shouldn’t be doing drugs either. This includes alcohol in excess and tobacco smoking. Christians who want to quit drinking and smoking have our Savior on their side: 13I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. - Philippians 4:13 King James
None of us are perfect. That is why Yahshua (Jesus) came. He walked this earth for 30 years before He started witnessing and preaching. He lived so He was knowledgeable of the world. He knew and experienced first hand what human beings are faced with. He was the perfect lamb. So, we may not get it right and we may stumble and even fall. We just have to get back up and admit we were wrong. Claim the covering of The Lamb, be washed in His blood. As long as we are truly sorry and we repent in our hearts with no intentions of committing that sin again, we are washed clean and are forgiven. That is the whole point of being washed in the blood of Yahshua (Jesus).

2010 New Year Resolution
It is time for my true New Year Resolution 1 John 5: 14This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. 15And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him. I am asking in Yahshua’s name, based on my resolve, my marriage to one Rickey Edward Stough, shall be dissolved and we will be divorced, prayerfully before my 47th birthday, definitely by the end of 2010, God willing. Amen
I believe Jesus or Yahshua is the son of God. I love God, Father Yahweh, and I love His son Yahshua. He is the true God and eternal life. I have been stating for years that this system of things, this world, is Lucifer’s the slanderer / Devil. I am reborn in Jesus and therefore I have the ability to overcome the world. The whole world is under the control of the evil one. I have strength in Christ to stand firm in my beliefs, on my own, with just His support and His spirit living in me…through me.
Sometimes I feel all alone, even though I live with five other people. I have my belief system, and the others in this house have their own personal relationships with their Higher Power. I do not judge nor do I know their hearts. Only God has that knowledge. I do know that gambling, anger, and abusive words fly almost every night in the lower quarters of the house. Meanwhile upstairs is horrific pain and a search for a pain killer be it in the form of alcohol, marijuana, or pills. They just bring to mind the scripture:
1 Corinthians 6
9Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders 10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
In my quarters it is just me, myself, I, my angels and a constant conversation with Father Yahweh through Yahshua. Two of my children live in this house as well, however they are young adults who work and have social lives and are hardly ever home. I truly don’t know who is washed and sanctified in this house. I can only speak for myself…otherwise I very well may be serving the father of lies!
When I am feeling along it is usually because I am craving a human connection in the form of a mate. Someone who understands my belief system and believes as I do. A man who gets me and all that I am about and accepts me as is. Not often though, as I truly am never alone. I have the Holy Spirit with me 24-7. I am human though, and miss the intimacies of a human relationship. I can honestly say that I have not been decently kissed in over 20 years. I sacrifice that condition and am here to tell you that sex, although as wondrous and so feel good as it is, it is not a necessity of life! Yeah, yeah, yeah those of you, who know me, truly know me, know that when I am in a relationship I turn in to an insatiable lover. My sex drive doesn’t park or slip into neutral it gets stuck in drive. Well, I am not in a relationship, and I have vowed to my God and my Lord and Savior that I will not enter into another relationship until I am divorced from my unbelieving husband who abandoned our marriage bed years and years ago. Then and only then will I look to start a relationship with another man with the intention of serious dating which leads to marriage. I will not lie with another man unless he is my husband.
The only reason to be married is if you can not abstain. 1 Corinthians 7 9But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion. Now I can abstain, but I don’t want to, I am freaking burning here!! Yeah, yeah, yeah Christians are not to divorce. Did I mention I am married to an unbeliever and he deserted our marriage bed? He moved out of state to Florida. He doesn’t love me or want me; he just has his own reasons for not wanting to divorce me, a divorce, by the way, I am biblically entitled to! 1 Corinthians 7 15But if the unbeliever leaves, let him do so. A believing man or woman is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace. I would love to be in peace with my sexual nature!
Perhaps he thinks he is punishing me, that is more his style. Well, I have come to the conclusion that I am going to have to play hard-ball. I am going to have to see about having him investigated for mismanagement of our son’s, Cordan, trust fund. Actually more like misappropriation of funds! Our son was hit by a car when he was 35 months old and there was money from the incident for our son’s future. Rickey used it for his future and pissed it away; crude terminology, but ever so true! Eh, I will hirer a divorce lawyer and try it the court system way instead of on my own like I did the last two times. If that doesn’t work, then I will play hard-ball. I will have to check with my son first and see what he says, he is so blindly loyal to his dad. That is one of the after effects of the car accident. A survivor of major head trauma Cordan / Corey is very easily manipulated. I am not a manipulator…guess who is!
Corey is talented, creative, sensitive, loving, strong, and dedicated. He is an amazing man with a code of honor that makes him stand by his dad. He stated to me once that he was afraid that if he left his dad, his dad would have no-one and end up committing suicide. He vividly saw this as if it were a premonition. I have been separated from my husband for a long time now. I have no idea who he is now. When I was with him, I could positively unequivocally tell you that wouldn’t be a thought in the man’s head. He has said that if he ever had a condition that was life threatening or if he was going to be less than he was, he would just walk out into the woods and never come back. He didn’t say if he would take a gun or a knife with him, just that he would not die in the house. I do know that if he were to be a vegetable he would not want to be on life support running up hospital bills. He doesn’t want to be resuscitated if there is a chance he’s be paralyzed or if he had a brain injury that would make him less than who he is. If there is a possibility he may have brain damage or need to wear a “diaper”…any of these scenarios, then just let him die. I would be surprised if he has changed his mind about any of that. Suicide? He is too intelligent for that. His personality may have changed, however the man is still brilliant, talented and creative that can’t change, it is his foundation the nature of his condition.
Just so you all know: I would never ever consider suicide, it is a sure fire one way ticket to Hell. So, I will not even contemplate IF and HOW I would do myself in! I have made it clear to every one and anyone who will listen to me over and over again through out my life. If ever you find me dead and it looks like suicide, its murder! It would have to be murder I am not going to Hell.
Father, I come before You in Yahshua’s name, pleading my case. You know my heart. I prayed for years that You would call Rickey and that he would answer. Now we are apart, and he is not willing to live with me to the standards I require. Please Father, I need a covering, You know what I need better than I do. Please, I am storing up my treasures for the New Earth and the New Heaven. I long to hear” 'Well done, good and faithful servant! …” I do not want to be accounted with those whom You will be gnashing Your teeth over. Those You will cut off from You at the end of days. Hebrews 11: 16 But now they desire a better, that is, a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them. I pray You do not cringe when I say You are my God. I give You leave, and invite You into my day, every day. Every day I say may Your will be done. I sing along with Family Force 5, “Replace Me” Crush me, tear me, break me, mold me Make me what You want me to be I am Your's for You to use Oh, Take and Replace me with You. I pray it is Your will for me to be free of Rick in Satan’s system of things. I need You to interfere and over ride Satan’s hold on my legal worldly issue of marriage and put through my divorce…I am begging You. Amen
There is something that has been laid on my heart. Me. The way I am. My likes and dislikes and the way I think and do things. Since totally devoting myself to servitude of You I have gotten several tattoos, developed a passion for Vampire Folklore, and have cleaned up my life. You know all this. I know we are not to have graven images to bow down and worship, I am not worshipping my tattoos. I worship You and Yahshua. You know my heart and my craziness. I have a touch of OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder) nothing major, hopefully an endearing idiosyncrasy. I still stand my ground and say that You are my creator and You made me this way. Sure the tattoos were my choice, but I believe this body is a vessel for my soul and there is no harm in decorating it. It’s not coming with me to the New Earth and New Heaven. Ashes to ashes dust to dust. 2 Corinthians 5 8 We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord. I want to be cremated anyway, 1 Corinthians 13:3 If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing. Yes I know the body is the temple, but we are to be concerned with the inside of our bodies. 1 Corinthians 6 12"Everything is permissible for me"—but not everything is beneficial. "Everything is permissible for me"—but I will not be mastered by anything. 13"Food for the stomach and the stomach for food"—but God will destroy them both. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. 14By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also. 15Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ himself? Shall I then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never! 16Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, "The two will become one flesh." 17But he who unites himself with the Lord is one with him in spirit.
18Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body. 19Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body. Now this is why I abstain and yet have tattoos! God knows my heart and He hasn’t laid on my heart yet to have them removed, so…until He does…I will have tattoos and may get a few more! I am fleeing from sexual immorality. Doing my best to keep the 10 Commandments and believe in His word, especially John 3: 16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Amen!
1 John 5
Faith in the Son of God
1Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well. 2This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands. 3This is love for God: to obey his commands. And his commands are not burdensome, 4for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. 5Who is it that overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
6This is the one who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. 7For there are three that testify: 8the Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement. 9We accept man's testimony, but God's testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son. 10Anyone who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his heart. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about his Son. 11And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
Concluding Remarks
13I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. 14This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. 15And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.
16If anyone sees his brother commit a sin that does not lead to death, he should pray and God will give him life. I refer to those whose sin does not lead to death. There is a sin that leads to death. I am not saying that he should pray about that. 17All wrongdoing is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to death.
18We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the one who was born of God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him. 19We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one. 20We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true—even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
Matthew25: 21"His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!' … Matthew25: 23"His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'
1 Corinthians 6
Lawsuits Among Believers
1If any of you has a dispute with another, dare he take it before the ungodly for judgment instead of before the saints? 2Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases? 3Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life! 4Therefore, if you have disputes about such matters, appoint as judges even men of little account in the church! 5I say this to shame you. Is it possible that there is nobody among you wise enough to judge a dispute between believers? 6But instead, one brother goes to law against another—and this in front of unbelievers!
7The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means you have been completely defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated? 8Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, and you do this to your brothers.
9Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders 10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
Sexual Immorality
12"Everything is permissible for me"—but not everything is beneficial. "Everything is permissible for me"—but I will not be mastered by anything. 13"Food for the stomach and the stomach for food"—but God will destroy them both. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. 14By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also. 15Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ himself? Shall I then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never! 16Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, "The two will become one flesh." 17But he who unites himself with the Lord is one with him in spirit.
18Flee from sexual immorality.

And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. 7For there are three that testify: 8the Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement. 9We accept man's testimony, but God's testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son. 10Anyone who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his heart. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about his Son. 11And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
Concluding Remarks
13I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. 14This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. 15And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.
16If anyone sees his brother commit a sin that does not lead to death, he should pray and God will give him life. I refer to those whose sin does not lead to death. There is a sin that leads to death. I am not saying that he should pray about that. 17All wrongdoing is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to death.
18We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the one who was born of God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him. 19We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one. 20We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true—even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.

1 Corinthians 6
Lawsuits Among Believers
1If any of you has a dispute with another, dare he take it before the ungodly for judgment instead of before the saints? 2Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases? 3Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life! 4Therefore, if you have disputes about such matters, appoint as judges even men of little account in the church! 5I say this to shame you. Is it possible that there is nobody among you wise enough to judge a dispute between believers? 6But instead, one brother goes to law against another—and this in front of unbelievers!
7The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means you have been completely defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated? 8Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, and you do this to your brothers.
9Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders 10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
Sexual Immorality
12"Everything is permissible for me"—but not everything is beneficial. "Everything is permissible for me"—but I will not be mastered by anything. 13"Food for the stomach and the stomach for food"—but God will destroy them both. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. 14By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also. 15Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ himself? Shall I then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never! 16Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, "The two will become one flesh." 17But he who unites himself with the Lord is one with him in spirit.
18Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body. 19Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body.
Shall we pray? If so, do you know how?
"Father Yahweh, in Yahshua’s name I invite You into my day. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. I thank You for creating me in Your image. I praise You that I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I confess that You are The God that heals, my Great Physician. Oh, Yahshua I ask You to heal my body from the top of my head to the soles of my feet. I pray that You would regenerate every bone, joint, tendon, ligament, tissue, organ, and every cell of my body. I respectfully stand before You washed in the precious blood of Yahshua. Forgiving my enemies as I pray You forgive me. This is the day that The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit have made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. Please use me as You see fit, as I am Your humble servant. May Your will be done in my life as You orchestrate it. Please send a sphere of angels to surround and protect me. Thank You! Praise You Father! Praise You Yahshua. Thank You so much for sacrificing SO MUCH for someone like me. I know I am undeserving, however You love me anyway. You are amazing, and I love You. Thank You for being My Savior. I know the only way to The Father is through The Son, so again, I pray in Yahshua’s name. Amen".
What is your take on why we are here?
As I sit and contemplate the Sabbath and the meaning of it all, I have the TV on and am listening to the Travel Channel tell all about Yellow Stone Park. I look up now and then to the most spectacular scenes. That’s when it reaffirms what I have already stated. Yahweh is The Artist and humans make a mockery of his creation. Albeit that the highest form of flattery is imitation, why bother when you can look out a window or take a walk in the out of doors?
It is so breath taking to be blessed with a viewing of the suns fall to slumber. The Father is The Master and the suns gentle descent into the blue gives the horizon a beautiful blend of colors. Like crayon pieces melted into a warm glow of yellows, oranges and reds. No matter how often I look or try to find just that shade of color in the world to mimic that masterful color, my favorite color, I have yet to find it. So I look forward to sun rise, to get a glimpse of the most beautiful color ever created. HalleluYah! Praise Yahweh. What a creation, most beautiful… wait! The moon is rising oh and it’s a full moon too! Here come those shades of blue that just thrill you as they dim and fall into shadows. Changing the landscape and bringing out creatures of the night. Great here comes the “‘skeeters”, I hate mosquitoes, grrrrrrr. Oh no problem, here comes the bats. Yes, the Father did have it all planned out now didn’t He?
Yes Jewels is in Spiritual Mode. I can’t help it, don’t want to help it and make no mistakes about it, I am happy with it. I don’t apologize either. I know why I am here…Do you?
If you are still asking the question, “What’s “It” all about?” “Why are we here?” And you haven’t accepted the fact it’s been all planned and you are a character in a role that was created for you called Life; YOU need to wake up! Come on think about it, NO really think about it. Why are we here? What’s the point? What comes next? Why do we have five fingers and five toes? How were we made, who made us? Who was first and who were we made for exactly? What is our function in all of this? WHY?
There is only one clear conclusion. We were created and we have an instruction manual. Come on! We were made in his image! When we create we give directions! How To Books are written on everything. We give directions to others on how we are raising our children and instruct them on how to interact with our children. For instance, growing up my children weren’t allowed to drink a lot of soda. Soda was a treat as was candy. Everyone who needed to know… knew this. Diaper rash remedies as well as family recipes were handed down and shared. I’m sure your family is the same. Now what makes you think our creator didn’t have an instruction manual for on how we are to operate too? He did you know, it is call the Bible!
I have been studying and reading and searching for the truth. I pray, worship, and search the net for it. The more I search the more I am brought to Yahweh The Elohim, Yahshua The Savior and the Holy Spirit. You may know them as God The Father, God The Son and God the Holy Ghost. Perhap Jesus rings a bell? If you research the names on the net, you’ll come to this conclusion too!
If not for The Creator, then what? What is your take on why we are here?

If not for The Creator, then what? What is your take on why we are here?
No sympathy for the Devil!
I just heard a question that put me in philosophical mode. Don’t get me wrong! I don’t have all the answers! I have been studying the bible for years, that doesn’t make me an authority! I may be naïve, but I chose to believe as a child. So keep all that in mind. I also believe I am lead by the Holy Spirit.
“Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! What was the question?” You ask? I shall answer:
Why does God let bad things happen to good people? Why is allowed that little children are molested, beaten and murdered by strangers and even worse, loved ones? How does God let a poor defenseless puppy be killed by supposedly honorable men? If there is a God why doesn’t He interfere?
Well, first of all… WHO ARE YOU TO QUESTION HIM? Did you create the heavens and the earth? Did you have anything to do with the planning and the making of it all? How do you know that the death of a few puppies won’t start a movement that brings a few people to the Father? That a community won’t be pulled together over a lost child and several people in that community will come to find and serve God? It is not our place to question. It is also not The Father’s fault things are the way they are. To make this point clear we have to start at the beginning and work our way all the way through until we get to the end of my “revelations”. I will make points and I will back up everything I say with scripture! The question is you willing to take this journey with me? Once you are given the truth you become accountable. So, consider yourself warned!
I believe I am saved. I am a servant of my Elohim, Yahweh. My savior is Yahshua. Some say Yahushua while most say Jesus; all are one and the same. I believe that Yahshua was born in the month of October and died in the month of April at the age of 33 ½. I believe Yahshua was Yahweh’s answer to Lucifer’s challenge. I said I can back up everything I say…you can’t believe in the existence of God and not Satan. If that is the case, don’t be calling me naïve! READ ON!!!
1 John 3:8 (New King James Version)
8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.
The son of Man would be Jesus/Yahshua!
Revelation 12:9 (New King James Version)
9 So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
(Keep in mind where this fallen angel was tossed!))
Isaiah 14:12 (New King James Version)
The Fall of Lucifer
12 “ How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations!
Yahshua said, Luke 10:18 (New King James Version)
18 … “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.”
Ezekiel 28:13-17 (New International Version)
13 You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz and emerald, chrysolite, onyx and jasper, sapphire, turquoise and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made of gold; on the day you were created they were prepared.
Lucifer was created too! What a jerk he is; to have such a position in heaven with The Father; to know the Father up-front close and personal. To be a favorite and to be so ungrateful!
14 You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for so I ordained you. You were on the holy mount of God; you walked among the fiery stones.
15 You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you.
16 Through your widespread trade you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God, and I expelled you, O guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones.
17 Your heart became proud on account of your beauty, and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor. So I threw you to the earth; I made a spectacle of you before kings.
At the risk of being ‘O Repeato Girl, I will point this out again! Lucifer was created as we were! He was an exalted Angel, a “covering” cherub, or angel. One great Angel stands on the left side of god’s throne and another on the right side.
Psalm 99:1 (New King James Version)
Praise to the LORD for His Holiness
1 The LORD reigns; Let the peoples tremble! He dwells between the cherubim; Let the earth be moved!
So there is Lucifer; hanging out with Father God all day. He is beautiful and perfect and has the best pipes (vocals) going. (Did I mention I think Lucifer was a jerk? He was jealous of us worshipping The Father?) He wanted us to worship him. He still does for that fact. He has quite a few followers too. I don’t get it. I look around his system of things and do not see where he is doing such a great job. He wants me to bow down and thank him for all the pain and suffering he caused? He thought he could do things better than The Father! Well, get to it already! He let his beauty and wisdom go to his head and he believed in his heart that he was better than his creator!
Ezekiel 28:17 (New King James Version)
17 “ Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor; I cast you to the ground, I laid you before kings, That they might gaze at you.
Isaiah 14:13 (New King James Version)
13 For you have said in your heart: ‘ I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation On the farthest sides of the north;
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.’
Why Lucifer you narcissist you! You were the best creation! One very proud angel who became discontent because of his own self exaltation! THAT’S TREASON! We suffer today because of Lucifer and his desire to be worshipped! He didn’t like God’s rule?
Exodus 20:3 (New King James Version)
3 “You shall have no other gods before Me
Well, per Matthew 12:30 (New King James Version)
30 He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters abroad.
I did mention that once you read this you will then be aware of what you are suppose to be doing, didn’t I? Wait! Let me check! Yep! “Once you are given the truth you become accountable. So, consider yourself warned!” I did! Matthew 12:30 is Yahshua speaking. He is telling us if we put anyone or anything in from of Him, we are putting Lucifer first and unwittingly serving him! Let me warn you scripturally:
Matthew 12:31 (New King James Version)
The Unpardonable Sin
31 “Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.
32 Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come.
I believe that means if you do not believe that Jesus/Yahshua was born of Father Yahweh and the Virgin Mary then you are speaking against the Holy Spirit.
Luke 1:35 (New King James Version)
35 And the angel answered and said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God.
Now, they know this in Heaven! Lucifer and a third of his angels KNOW this! Yet they stupidly revolt against the Father as spoiled children. I can see wanting to emulate your parent, but wanting to be bigger, better, and more beautiful when it is not possible…one should be thankful and grateful for being as blessed as they already are! Right! If my child where to disrespect me and become hateful and disruptive in my house and started taking his siblings with him, I’d kick him out! Tough love or self preservation I don’t care what you call it! They are not welcome in my home!
Revelations 12:7-12 (New King James Version)
Satan Thrown Out of Heaven
7 And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought,
8 but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer.
9 So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
10 Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down.
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.
(Oh great! Guess who got them!)
12 Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.”
Not only that, but after Yahshua was baptized:::>
Matthew 4 (New King James Version)
Satan Tempts Jesus
1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
2 And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry.
3 Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”
4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’”
5 Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple,
6 and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written: ‘ He shall give His angels charge over you,’ and, ‘ In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’”
7 Jesus said to him, “It is written again, ‘You shall not tempt the LORD your God.’”
8 Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.
9 And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”
10 Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve.’”
11 Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him.
The devil, that would be Lucifer, took Him, that would be Jesus or Yahshua, up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.” Well the only way Lucifer can give Yahshua all the kingdoms of the world and their glory is if they are his to give! Lucifer doesn’t want to suffer alone! I find I need to be as the Thessalonians of old:
1 Thessalonians 1 (New International Version)
… They tell how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God,
10 and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead—Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.
2 Thessalonians 1 (New International Version)
1Paul, Silas and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:
2 Grace and peace to you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Thanksgiving and Prayer
3 We ought always to thank God for you, brothers, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love every one of you has for each other is increasing.
4 Therefore, among God's churches we boast about your perseverance and faith in all the persecutions and trials you are enduring.
5 All this is evidence that God's judgment is right, and as a result you will be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering.
6 God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you
7 and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels.
8 He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.
9 They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power
10 on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.
11 With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may count you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith.
12 We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Now, they know this in Heaven! Lucifer and a third of his angels KNOW this! Yet they stupidly revolt against the Father as spoiled children. I can see wanting to emulate your parent, but wanting to be bigger, better, and more beautiful when it is not possible…one should be thankful and grateful for being as blessed as they already are! Right! If my child where to disrespect me and become hateful and disruptive in my house and started taking his siblings with him, I’d kick him out! Tough love or self preservation I don’t care what you call it! They are not welcome in my home!
Revelations 12:7-12 (New King James Version)
Satan Thrown Out of Heaven
7 And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought,
8 but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer.
9 So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
10 Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down.
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.
(Oh great! Guess who got them!)
12 Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.”
Not only that, but after Yahshua was baptized:::>
Matthew 4 (New King James Version)
Satan Tempts Jesus
1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
2 And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry.
3 Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”
4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’”
5 Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple,
6 and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written: ‘ He shall give His angels charge over you,’ and, ‘ In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’”
7 Jesus said to him, “It is written again, ‘You shall not tempt the LORD your God.’”
8 Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.
9 And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”
10 Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve.’”
11 Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him.
The devil, that would be Lucifer, took Him, that would be Jesus or Yahshua, up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.” Well the only way Lucifer can give Yahshua all the kingdoms of the world and their glory is if they are his to give! Lucifer doesn’t want to suffer alone! I find I need to be as the Thessalonians of old:
1 Thessalonians 1 (New International Version)
… They tell how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God,
10 and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead—Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.
2 Thessalonians 1 (New International Version)
1Paul, Silas and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:
2 Grace and peace to you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Thanksgiving and Prayer
3 We ought always to thank God for you, brothers, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love every one of you has for each other is increasing.
4 Therefore, among God's churches we boast about your perseverance and faith in all the persecutions and trials you are enduring.
5 All this is evidence that God's judgment is right, and as a result you will be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering.
6 God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you
7 and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels.
8 He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.
9 They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power
10 on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.
11 With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may count you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith.
12 We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
