“Am I real, or am I fake”

The following test was written based on the verses below, and asking the Lord to test and shine His light on myself, and to be able to truly appreciate and see on what the Lord has done and accomplished for me and anyone that wants to experience the Real God, in His fullness, and in His death, His Life, and His resurrection. There are many tests and many questioners out there, to find out if you have a certain personality, compatibility, what kind of food you should and should not eat, what type of vitamins you need, etc. But I could not find any test, that I could test and judge myself on, to find out where I truly and honestly stand before my Lord and Savior. Therefore I asked Him to provide me one, to test and judge myself on it, not to be judge by Him. And the name of the test is called “Am I fake or Am I real”, but before you read this one, please read the following verses to see why it’s necessary for one’s well being to come before the Lord and be honest with yourself. 1 Corinthians 11. 27 Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body. 30 For this reason many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep. 31 For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged. 32 But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.

“Am I fake or am I real” Both the real and fake are a look alike! But are very different! In the next few points you will find a description of each and that’s also is related to finding a treasure parable (Matt 13:44). While reading these points, the question that I asked myself is, to which of these two categories I find myself most in:

Fake category:

1. Fake is very attractive, vs real.
2. Fake is very pleasing to the eye!
3. Fake is more luring, it’s more shiny, can be seen from further out!
4. Fake is very noisy, because it has to be, in order to be attractive.
5. Fake doesn’t have the inner substance, to match that by which you are attracted.
6. Fake is just a shell, shell that’s covering up the inside, shell that’s covering up the worthless substance, shell that’s covering up the emptiness.
7. Fake is a shell, that does not liked to be touched, it’s only for display!
8. Fake is a shell, that does not like to be tested for its worthiness!
9. Fake, gets very easily offended, because their existence, is a mere outer layer, existing for self defense!
10. Fake, spend all there energy and existence, worrying about its appearance and the shell!
11. Fake, is very concerned about social distancing, they only prefer to be around their own kind!
12. Fake, use their shell to suppress God, while doing everything to generate their own light to shine!
13. Fake, can’t deal with any conflict, any disturbances of the outer shell!
14. Fake, are very vile when there is a breakage of the outer shell!
15. Fake, only like to deal with the symptoms that appear on the shell, but bury the root causes of those symptoms!
16. Fake, are very concerned about pleasing people that don’t care about them, even at the expense of the ones that love them!
17. Fake, will fight to death to defend the outer shell and its appearance, claiming to be a victim, and will attract other fakes to defend them!
18. Fake, like to hide behind spiritual terms, like “peace”, and “oneness”, in order not to be exposed!
19. Fake, in order to generate worldly attraction of others, need to be resuscitated every morning,in order to generate its own light of attraction!
20. Fake, must be very loud and spiritual on the outside, in order to avoid detection of its true value and condition!

Real Category:

1. Real is very stable not as attractive!
2. Real doesn’t worry or concern themselves about the outer shell!
3. Real does not care what, where, how, and who is testing it!
4. Real only reflects the same amount of light on the outside as it has inside!
5. Real does not need to defend its substance, it’s the same from the outside to the most inner cell!
6. Real does not need to be resuscitated every morning!
7. Real does not need to be checked for heart beat, or breath every day!
8. Real loves light and doesn’t hide from its exposure!
9. Real, doesn’t deal with the symptoms, it deals with the root cause!
10. Real, enjoys proofing process, in order to be used in the most highest and precious applications, and to achieve the highest proof!
11. Real knows that he’s substance is not that of his own making, of his own testing, but that of someone else’s work!
12. Real doesn’t sell itself, it’s only recognized by those who want it, and are searching for the real thing!
13. Real requires a lot of dirt moving, searching, coming up empty, or sometimes finding a fake first, in order to recognize the difference!
14. Real requires blood, sweat and tears, fake is readily available, nothing is required! (Well, maybe 99 cents)
15. Real has very little following, fake is big and loud!
16. When one finds a real thing, they never can go back to fake!
17. Real is self-existing, undeterred or unmovable!
18. Real is all consuming!
19. Real is feeling like you’re an alien in this world!
20. Real, is like you don’t exist, but Something Exists in your place!

May God bless you, and your honest evaluation and judgment of yourself, so that you are not judged by Him!

True Experience of a Living God!

Over the past 2000 years, the biggest battle that exist in this universe, is a battle of God for man’s soul. Although, He already did everything, completed everything on His end that’s necessary to accomplish the task from start to finish, there remains one big obstacle, which is a man himself!

Everything in this universe is set up by the ruler of this world, to give a person a very close second appearance of God, but preventing one, by all means necessary to experience a Living God. One of the most used ways that he succeeds in doing so, is by providing an avenue, providing a temporary solutions to a permanent problem, by offering people religion. Religion is, was, and always will be, a manmade, God denying, man satisfying set of rules, means, conditions, requirements, that only lead to temporary satisfaction of self, uplifting of a man, and satisfaction of those who invented it! It has no real substance, it has no permanent solutions, it has no ability to satisfy the thirst of anyone who is searching for Real Living God. As a matter of fact, religion’s only existence and intend, is to seek out and destroy anyone who has anything of Life sprouted in their being! Religion, is the biggest, the most vicious constricting snake in this world! As soon as it feels any kind of movement, even a little jab towards life, it squeezes tighter and tighter, it grips stronger and stronger, until it suffocates everything that’s living and of Life that sprouted in a person.

Most people that are satisfied with it, never realize in what kind of horrible situation that they are in. They are not able to recognize the signs and the power of the predator that got a hold of them, and devoured their whole being. When we read the gospel of John, particularly the first 10-12 chapters, we see how Jesus delt with, what He said of, and how he treated the religious crowds and religious leaders. There is a very clear picture of how this predator effectively eliminates all Life, everything of Life, and everything of a Living God!

God created man with ability to see, smell, taste, touch and feel. And because of those senses, man was able to recognize Him, feel Him, touch Him, and notice when there was something foreign being offered to him. But ever since the fall of man, and no different today, that same predator lurks around, slithering unnoticed, seeking his next prey. Its main goal, is to destroy all those God given senses, make you blind, make you not be able to taste, not be able to touch and feel, and mainly not be able to smell that snake from far away, and feel its grip on you, until he destroys all work of the Living God, and make you settle for second best, that fake religion, and when you do, he will devour you whole, without even a movement.

When you get stuck in any of those movements, regardless of the name, its only by the mercy of God, that one can be freed from the grip of its scales, from the power of the predator. Its only by the mercy of God, one can cry out to Him, while gasping for those last breaths of life. To Him, who is able to free, who is able to breathe in life, restore the senses to see the Light again, hear His voice in your being, able to touch Him, able to feel His power and love, and be able to smell that nasty snake when he comes back.

If one never recognizes that he is trapped, and that he has been devoured by this beast, and his or her live and existence is only to satisfy the appetite of that predator, he will become just like him. He will be come just like the predator! And just like Jesus said to religious leaders, “you are of your father, the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do”. It’s the same as it was in the time of Jesus, and I would say its even worse, because the dead man can only progress one way. These people are very religious, very zealous individuals. They can't recognize anything that is Living, anything that is of the Living God, and in most cases, unless it fits that belief system that devoured them, they will do everything possible in their power, to destroy, to condemn, to question every move, to even go as far as calling a Living God and demon. Unless that which is of life is destroyed, all life is destroyed, then, and only then those people are satisfied!

Paul, was a perfect example of this, but the only way he was freed and converted from it, was by the miracle of God Himself! He wasn’t converted by anything that came from him, he didn’t follow the procedures, he didn’t go and get the life coach, he didn’t follow a man, he didn’t invent the event. It was a moment of true regeneration, restoration, and recognition of the Living God. God, who restored his senses to see, hear, feel, smell, by His mighty touch, and His mighty light. And in one instant, he went from satisfying that religious predator, to satisfying living and loving God.

Today, unlike any other time in this world, that big snake, that big predator, is suffocating millions of people, by offering his god to people. He is telling them that they just need to do a certain set of rules, follow a set of parameters, follow a man, discover their being, get a life coach, to go and see a priest, even to go to a so called church, that’s build by man and for man. That snake never changed! Because the man never changed! And instead of remembering what God said, we just take that easy way out, we take that what looks good on the outside, what looks good on Sunday! We just paint a dead man, cover up the casket, put on some perfume, and pretend that there is something living inside. But if, there will be any movement toward Life, it will be destroyed instantly!

Have you ever experienced a Living God? Have you ever had a moment in your life, where you saw that light at the end of the tunnel? You had a little hope that there might be the end to this madness you are in? You thought that you finally there, only to see it slip away between your fingers? It didn’t slip away because God slipped away, it slipped away because instead of going to that light, you went to see a priest, you went to see a man, you checked in to see if it goes with the rules and regulations, if its approved by man that you always trusted and believed. If its approved by the church, just like in the time of Jesus.

Well, I got a solution for you, and its nothing that you haven’t heard before, its nothing that is new, nothing that you can’t do. Next time, when you see even a spec of that light at the end of the tunnel, RUN to it, don’t walk, don’t take a stroll down to your church, don’t call you favorite pastor, your life coach, your best friend, after all, what do you have to lose? Well, you will find out for yourself! But it’s totally up to you, no one can do that for you, NOONE! Not your church, your pastor, your priest, NOBODY! You don’t need a priest, you have ONE! You don’t need a man, you have ONE, because after all, the reason you are where you are, because you followed one! You need God! You need to be freed, and He is the only One who can do that! Even if it’s a smallest spec of the light that there now, GO, RUN, because if you don’t, it might be the last time you see it, and it will be lights out from there on!

May the Light of God shine on you! For His Glory! His satisfaction! For the total destruction of that predator, that snake, that constrictor. You will feel the freedom of His mercy and grace, you will feel His love. You will experience the power of His restoration, the power of His regeneration. You will get your senses back, you will hear His voice, you will be in the light, and you will smell that slithering beast from far away. You will be able to tell that scum when he comes back to offer you the second best, that “You have been defeated! you have no power over me! And if you don’t believe me, go look in the mirror, and you will find a footprint on the back of your head, and its not just a footprint, its got a hole in in it, which is of my Redeemer, my Savior and My God!”. You will experience a total freedom in Him, in His Life, in His death, and in His resurrection!

Go to the Light! Run!

Give Him all the Glory!
