It has been so sad to watch how the world so quickly embraced the governments' policies and didn't look to God for wisdom and healing. My go-to was/is the book of Daniel. I will NOT bow down to a golden statue. I will NOT eat the king's food. I will GLADLY open my windows and pray to our Sovereign LORD God Yahweh and proclaim His name in my battle cry against pharmakeia: the use of medicine, drugs or spell (according to Strong's definition.)
Satan tried to cast us under a spell. Some of us fell for it. Some of us didn't. Some churches fell for it. Some didn't. This is the LORD's threshing of the wheat. The chaff is being cleaned out, for the path to heaven is through a narrow gate.
I digress.
The churches' sad teachings of who our LORD is and how we MUST stand against other belief systems has been sadly covered up and not mentioned at all. Since the days of Exodus we have not followed the one commandment that the LORD gave. Do NOT worship any other gods.
Because of Adam and Eve and their great fall we will ALWAYS make mistakes and choose our own paths. His mercy and grace is ALWAYS with us IF we choose to repent and ask for forgiveness. So simple yet so difficult for those full of pride - which is ALL of us. We ALL fall short of the the glory of God.
Father God I pray that our eyes will be opened to Your will and not ours. I pray for Your forgiveness daily as we continue to make mistakes - even in our churches. Please LORD God Yeshua guide us as the Good Shepherd You are. In Your name I pray. Amen.
God Bless you Dr Tenpenny for speaking TRUTH and encouraging us all to share that TRUTH and to stay close to our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ. You are such a blessing.
"People will think they are safe and secure. But destruction will suddenly strike them like the pains of a woman about to give birth. And they won't escape.
My dear friends, you don't live in darkness, and so that day won't surprise you like a thief. You belong to the light and live in the day. We don't live in the night or belong to the dark. Others may sleep, but we should stay awake and be alert." 1 Thessalonians 3-6 CEV
Over the last three years, it has been evident that evil has been escalating just like an explosion went off, and most didn't hear or see anything. It was a warning sound that barely anyone noticed because they weren't paying attention. This darkness suddenly came in to envelop the globe overnight, almost undetected.
The further people get away from the Bible and the things it teaches clearly, the more this deception will blind them to what is happening in broad daylight. Why? Because they didn't know the Bible forewarned them that this would happen. They have been sleeping, thinking they were safe and secure when they're not.
The Bible says . . .
"Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path." Psalm 119:105
"Send out your light and your truth; let them guide me. Let them lead me to your holy mountain, to the place where you live." Psalms 43:3 NLT
Knowing what the Bible says more than ever is essential now. What we believe and why we believe it is not an option.
We say . . .
"LORD, give us this day our daily bread and a hunger to study the Bible, to know what it says to us. Others may sleep, but we will stay awake and alert. Amen.
So true, and I wrote a brief post today about how it seems evil is growing more and more rampant. In a similar situation, the prophet Habakkuk had some guidance which may help us.
Thank you for the reminder that GOD is always in control. We have nothing to fear because we are in his care, not just for now but for all eternity. Praise GOD, for He is wonderful, and His loving-kindness lasts forever!
It is very sad that so many people are cultural Christians, and they have no idea what they are missing out on. Everything in the Bible is to help us understand who we are so we can live a life of true purpose - the purpose He laid out for us individually and corporately. Thank God for His unending grace.
There are many reasons for the state of Christian’s belief. Poorly taught and many are probably not truly Christians as Christ said in Matthew 7. Also the culture has influenced the Church more than the Church has influenced the culture. All these could be expanded and other resons added.
Dr. T, please check the last paragraph of Statement 3 before “What the Bible Says.” I believe it’s missing the word “not” in a crucial spot. Love you, and appreciate your work on this 2-part series!
I ALWAYS manage to find a typo or two in all my posts, even when I read them through multiple times. And it always happens right after I push the Post button.
and then the "grammar and spell check cops" come out and say the ENTIRE 1800+ word piece has "lost ALL credibility" because the word, such as "there" was misspelled and Spell Check didn't notify the correct
Lost all credibility? Says who? ;)
Sometimes I find the grammar/spell checking irritating and want to scream, "did you miss the point?" Then, I have to remind myself, that they are trying to be helpful!
But sometimes, it's very important, such as your suggestion. There's my rant for the evening! haha! thanks for 'listening"!!
Let your No be No and your Yes be Yes. Many times being grey leads to confusion, so it is often helpful to be black and white. Thank you for your clear and scriptural answers to the survey questions.
Reading this message reminded me of your in-depth, researched, out-of-print book, "Say No to Vaccines". It assisted me in making a clear decision for the healthcare of my family and friends. I so appreciate the bold clarity and convictions in your answers here and in many of your resources that encourage us on our journey towards optimal health and healing in spirit, soul and body. Mahalo nui loa!
thank you Cheryl. Both of my weekly substacks take hours and hours of research and writing. Sometimes, one substack is about 12 hrs of work....that's why my wish is that people will read them, print and pass on!
AMEN~Thank you Dr Tenpenny ~ I enjoy reading your substacks to add to my daily walk with GOD, to stay centered on HIM and HIS truth and not on what others may think of HIM that is not truth. And one day you will very likely hear "‘Well done, good and faithful servant" for speaking HIS truth.
Thanks again, Dr. Tenpenny. I took the survey(on paper) last Sunday. It seems to me that the repetitious reading of rather few verses in the whole of the Bible has given to us "every Sunday in the pew" people a consequent ignorance of a lot of knowledge. I say this as only in April did I first read Genesis straight through-----how much had I never before encountered! Then Exodus, now in the mid-twenties of Leviticus. And along the way
I see why I have always found tattoos distasteful.
Amen and Amen!

Listen and answer my prayer!
Show your incredible love.
Your mighty arm protects those
who run to you for safety
from their enemies.
Protect me as you would
your very own eyes;
hide me in the shadow
of your wings." Psalm 17:6-8 CEV

1 Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
in light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
almighty, victorious, thy great name we praise.
2 Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might;
thy justice like mountains high soaring above
thy clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.
3 To all life thou givest, to both great and small;
in all life thou livest, the true life of all;
we blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,
and wither and perish but naught changeth thee.
4 Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,
thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight;
all praise we would render, O help us to see
'tis only the splendor of light hideth thee.
Thank you...one of my 3 "best" hymns which have supported me through really nasty situations.
The other two being Our God, Our Help in Ages Past and A Mighty Fortress is Our God

Well, nobody has yet told me that I have lost all credibility. Maybe that’s coming. Or maybe I don’t have any to lose. Ha!
I’m glad you pointed that out. I saw that as well.

Amen and Amen!! Thank you for sharing, Dr. Tenpenny! Jesus is the Only Way to the Father!! John 14:6 New International Version

Luke 18:8
I tell you, he will see that they get Justice, and quickly, however, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth.
Thanks again, Dr. Tenpenny. I took the survey(on paper) last Sunday. It seems to me that the repetitious reading of rather few verses in the whole of the Bible has given to us "every Sunday in the pew" people a consequent ignorance of a lot of knowledge. I say this as only in April did I first read Genesis straight through-----how much had I never before encountered! Then Exodus, now in the mid-twenties of Leviticus. And along the way

Amen and thank you!!!
Amen! Such truth and wisdom. I am going to print all of these to keep handy. Thank you so much for the beautiful scripture references.
thank you! I really hope these substacks are used, printed and passed along!
Amen and Amen
