Dear brothers and sisters in our Lord Jesus, part of the growing repentance remnant, cleansing as His Bride, getting ready for His soon return as our Bridegroom-----
I have a great respect for Mario Murrillo. He is a remarkable, devoted evangelist. But I have to add one more issue to the five he points out why this USA nation isn't going more forward towards a real Godly restoration. Here are his five points:
here are five popular Christian campsites:
The prosperity camp.
The prophetic camp.
The mega church camp.
The worship camp.
The heresy hunting camp.
Here’s the thing, each one of these camps contain truth. But that truth is neutralized because it does not join forces with the truth in other tribes.
Here is what Paul said about this: 1 Corinthians 12:20-22,
“But now indeed there are many members, yet one body. And the eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you”; nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.” No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.” As a matter of fact, that is what we are saying! “I have no need of you!” That delusion is pure defeatism. In revival, the church fires on all pistons. Every gift is needed, working side by side with all the others. But how does defeatism work in these camps? They build a focus on a single truth to the exclusion of others.
The prosperity gospel expresses defeatism by using faith for things that make no difference in the war for America’s soul. Subconsciously they say we can’t win the moral war so let’s win the financial war.Here is the warning from Paul:
“If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which accords with godliness, he is proud, knowing nothing, but is obsessed with disputes and arguments over words, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions, useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. From such withdraw yourself” (1 Timothy 6:3-5, NKJV).
Mega churches display defeatism by diluting scripture and adding entertainment. They do this because they do not believe the Gospel and the Holy Spirit can win against the modern mind. Look at another warning from Paul,
“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry” (2 Timothy 4:3-5, NKJV).
Heresy hunting podcasters express defeatism by giving up on becoming a ministry that rightly divides the word of truth. When you are an unknown preacher—and you want to be known—harping on juicy details is a cheap way to do it. But why do you want to be the National Enquirer? Again there is a warning from scripture."My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment” (James 3:1, NKJV).
The prophetic tribe demonstrates defeatism when they diminish the Bible in favor of private words from God. Peter wrote, 2 Peter 1:20-21, “knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.”
Worship culture can express defeatism when they believe singing is enough to change the world. They twist this verse to exalt endless worship, John 12:32, “And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself.” But that verse does not mean that if we exalt Jesus by endlessly singing repetitive choruses that it will win souls. The next verse explains: John 12:33, “This He said, signifying by what death He would die.”
Until God breaks down these camps, great events, breakthroughs and stirrings will continue to rise up, teasing us with the idea of revival and then fading away. But wait, there is a greater hope. Right now it is a cloud the size of a man’s hand. But it holds the promise of torrential rain. Millions are sick of business as usual. Their prayers are getting dangerous. Who are these people? A remnant with an insatiable hunger for the real thing. We can break down these walls. You, as part of this remnant, can break down these walls!

What is one other key reason the Church is not fully awake and moving in power?? FEW BELIEVERS HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT AND "ARE TRAINED BY PRACTICE" AND USE IT TO CLEANSE FROM OLD SIN STRONGHOLDS AND TO BRING IN DISCIPLES ! Look at Hebrews 5:12-14: "For though by this time you ought to be teachers [because of the time you have had to learn these truths], you actually need someone to teach you again the elementary principles of God’s word [from the beginning], and you have come to be continually in need of milk, not solid food. 13 For everyone who lives on milk is [doctrinally inexperienced and] unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a spiritual infant. 14 But solid food is for the [spiritually] mature, whose senses are trained by practice to distinguish between what is morally good and what is evil."
So it is not just those who pray for repentance but also PRACTICE it, really experience it, who are "trained by practice" and are truly transformed into a "new creation" for Christ, exhibiting the Fruit of the Holy Spirit to others, really following His call, no longer just sitting and playing church ! REPENTANCE IS HIS GIFT! JOIN US EACH WEEK IN OUR ZOOM CALLS TO EXPERIENCE THE JOY THAT COMES FROM REMOVING AN OLD SIN STRONGHOLD IN PRIVATE TIME WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT! PUT HIS GIFT OF REPENTANCE INTO PRACTICE!!!

Our Give-12 Project continues
We are not anywhere near reaching out goal. If each person reading this mail, can donate $12 or more each month those funds will support the Holy Spirit Fire of Repentance spreading like a spiritual spear, increasingly touching hearts and nations, especially in Africa. We have virtually no overhead; Susan and I are volunteers; but we are inundated daily by very real requests for support from repentance-based pastors, Ambassadors of God's First Fruit: Love.
For example, Here is a request today from Sebita Chipson, head of the women's repentance ministry in Malawi: Hello ps jeff, i trust that you are well, sir i ask that if there's funds please help me i have a meeting on Friday where we are teaching women around blantyre on being innovative, we are doing this in conjunction with women from Jesus worship ministry, any support you may give will help
Her budget is sixty dollars. Having given out basically all that has come in from a few donors, we don't even have that sixty dollars in the NDR account. WILL YOU HELP SEBITA PUT LOVE INTO PRACTICE? Please sow into this mighty move of God.
May God Bless you in abundance as you sow towards His Kingdom!
God bless you,
Pastor Jeff
