1 Corinthians 9-13
Amplifed….
I wrote you in my (previous) letter not to associate with (sexually) immoral
People——
not meaning the (immoral people of this world, or the greedy ones and swindlers, or idolaters, for then you would have to get out of the world and human society altogether!
But actually, I have written to you not to associate with any so-called (Christian) brother if he is sexually immoral or greedy, or is an idolater (devoted to anything that takes the place of God),
or is a reviler (who insults or slanders or otherwise verbally abuses others), or is a drunkard or a swinler——you must not so much as eat with such a person.
For what business is it of mine to judge outsiders (non-believers)? Do you not judge those who are within the church (to protect the church as the situation requires)?
God alone sits in judgment on those who are outside (the faith). REMOVE THE WICKED ONE FROM AMONG YOU (expel him from your church).
*** THE CHURCH IS NOT TO BE SITTING IN JUDGMENT ON NON-BELIEVERS. ***
*** THE CHURCH IS TO SET A STANDARD FOR THOSE WHO CALL THEMSELVES CHRISTIAN’S. ***
*** THERE IS A REAL DANGER TO THE BODY OF CHRIST TO HAVE ——
*** SEXUALLY IMMORAL PEOPLE***
*** GREEDY PEOPLE ***
*** SWINDLERS ***
*** IDOLATERS ***
*** THOSE WHO INSULT AND SLANDER ***
*** DRUNKARDS ***
********************************************
*** WE AS BELIEVERS ARE NOT TO ASSOCIATE WITH ANY SO-CALLED CHRISTIAN BROTHER WHO IS DOING THESE THINGS. ***
*** THIS IS TO PROTECT THE WITNESS AND INTEGRITY OF THE CHURCH. ***
*** JESUS CHRIST IS CALLING HIS CHURCH
TO BE FREE OF ALL THE MESS. ***
*** REMOVE THE WICKED ONE FROM AMONG YOU ! ***
*** YOU ARE TO BE LEADING THE WORLD TO JESUS CHRIST. ***
*** THE CHURCH, BY EXAMPLE IS TO INSPIRE PEOPLE TO LIVE RIGHTEOUS, AND
GOOD IN THE SIGHT OF GOD. ***

PERRY SEELY MINISTRIES 🌎 THE AGE OF DICTATORSHIP
The devil is a dictator JESUS IS A LIBERATOR. Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil. JESUS CAME TO DESTROY THE STRONGHOLD OF SIN IN OUR LIVES. His life, death, and reserection has set us free from the dictatorship of Satan brought on by our slavery to sin.
Human dictators use the same methods because they are controlled by Satan. Hitler
And his “BROWN SHIRTS”, “SS”, “STORM TROOPS”, maneuvered their way into power
because people “LET” them.
FEAR IS USED and then people cave into the
“PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE ” because they are morally weak because of sin. They choose what is “GOOD” (easiest) for them in their lives. They rationalize condoning evil to appease their conscience. THE EFFECT OF SIN IS MORAL WEAKNESS IN OTHER AREAS OF OUR LIVES.
DICTATORS LEARN FROM THE DEVIL TO EXPLOIT THE “BASE” FALLEN NATURE OF MANKIND. Hitler promised to make the German people into a “MASTER RACE” to rule the world. Well I guess that was very appealing to many in Germany at the time.
Giving your allegiance to any “DICTATOR ” has consequences. They promise to do great things for you but only take your freedom. Going along with the crowd may be easiest but you will answer as an individual to JESUS CHRIST.
STAND FAST IN THE LIBERTY FOR WHICH CHRIST HAS MADE YOU FREE. WHOMSOEVER THE SON SETS FREE IS FREE INDEED. WHERE THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS THERE IS LIBERTY.

PERRY SEELY MINISTRIES 🌎 SATAN’S HOCK SHOP
Maybe you have been to a hock shop because you were strapped for cash. You took something that was valuable to you and got a loan for it.
Your rifle or chainsaw or family jewelry were given for pennys on the dollar. Hock shops are places of desperation and sadness where your dreams go to die.
I was in a hock shop in Arizona looking to get a bargain. I was struck by the number of Native baskets and jewelry they had for sale.
They were asking thousnds of dollars on some of the items.
I was wondering how much they paid the Navajo’s who hocked their valuables. What was the money needed for? What circumstances forced these Native People to give up things so valuable to them?
I look at what Jesus did on the cross for every human being on the face of the earth.
He went into the devils hock shop and redeemed our souls back to God. Our hopes and dreams were given back to us because he paid the price.
Know one can do this but Jesus. His blood was shed for us. His life was traded for ours.
The righteous died for the unrighteous. All I can say is thank you. Now I must do the best I can with this redeemed life of mine!

PERRY SEELY MINISTRIES 🌎 TODAY’S WORD FROM HOLY SPIRIT
The Apostle Paul got the message he taught by “DIRECT REVELATION” of Jesus Christ. He did not recieve it from from Peter, James, or John.
Paul made it clear that it was not man’s gospel, patterned after any human concept because he did not learn it from men. God needed someone who would listen to him directly so the message would be clear and pure.
How many generations of believers have there been since the “DIRECT REVELATION “?
How “PURE” and “CLEAR is the gospel that is taught in today’s church? Are preachers hearing from God personally or are they learning from other men?
Christianity needs a Devine reset. A simple illustration is your phone. I turn my phone off and restart when it’s not working the way I know it should. It is the way I refresh my phone and it works.
We need “THIS GENERATION” to hear from JESUS through “DIRECT REVELATION “. We don’t need more of what we have now that is called “CHRISTIANITY “. We need to be more
like Jesus and less like Christianity.
Think about it…..A GENERATION FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT SAYING TO THE POWERS THAT BE….”WE MUST OBEY GOD RATHER THAN MAN”. Please don’t call that
“REVIVAL” , because that would be “Weak”.
These will truly be “NEW WINESKINS” filled with “NEW WINE”. Jesus lives in them and the religious crowd will speak against them.
Think about Jesus and the Pharisee or Paul and the same bunch.
Out with the old and in with the new. Turn off religion and “REFRESH” your life with “JESUS”. Think “BOOK OF ACTS” to further clarify what I am saying. Be filled with “POWER WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT COMES UPON YOU”!

PERRY SEELY MINISTRIES 🌎 INSIGHT AND EXPERIENCE
I can speak from my experience of being a traditional Native Man that Has embraced and recieved Jesus Christ as Lord. It has always been this personal relationship with my Lord that I have longed for.
Having him “IN” me filling the empty part of my heart and making me whole is what I wanted. Having someone that truly understands my and loves me really makes
“THE” difference.
I see that a tremendous amount of the “CHRISTIAN CHURCH EXPERIENCE ” has actually been counter productive to this.
Much of “IT” is a soul crushing, unnecessary,
test brought on by religious confornists.
As a Native Man with a mind that knows right from wrong, much of the focus in Christianity
tested my values. I see that emphasis has been on a dominant European mindset. Propaganda might be a better word.
I want Jesus, but I don’t want to conform to Christan religion. I want relationship with him and my Father God, but not superficial rituals and a lifestyle that only mimic him.
“HAVING THE FORM OF GOD, BUT DENYING HIS POWER IS NOT FOR ME.”
I am “RELIGION FREE” now and my two way communication with God has never been more clear and honest. I am free now because Jesus has “SET ME FREE”. I no longer carry the bagage and need to make excuses for things that are just plain wrong!
This way I choose to live is for my own well being. So I can look in the mirror and respect what I see. I am the “LIGHT OF THE WORLD” to those who want who I have in my heart. My life calls out “YOU CAN BE SAVED, BORN AGAIN, WITHOUT THE NEED TO FOLLOW THE RELIGIOUS CROWD AND THE FORCED MARCH THROUGH “CHRISTIANITY”.

PERRY SEELY MINISTRIES 🌎 FIRST THINGS
The book of Genesis is the book of “BEGINNINGS ” as the book of Revelation is the book of “ENDINGS “. The first “SIN” plunged all mankind into seperation from God and a curse.
The first murder (Cain/Abel) started a history of murder over the face of the earth. Mary Magdalen was the first to see the risen
Christ. The 120 that waited for the promises of the Father were the first to receive the Holy Spirit after Jesus rose from the dead.
The Mayflower sailing ship and crew were much recognized as the first Europeans to have contect with the “NATIVE PEOPLE” of what has become America. They took as captives some Native People as slaves.
That was the “FIRST” injustice against the “NATIVE PEOPLES” of the new world. That started a precedent for the continued oppression of Indigenous people.
Jesus Christ is God’s answer to the first sin of mankind….Adam and Eve. He is also the answer to the “FIRST” sin of America…..the oppression and injustice of the Native and original people that God placed here.
This needs to be addressed so America can find her destiny as a nation of promise and sanctuary. So American Christianity can flow in her redemptive purpose and not be an
oppressive religion.
Reconciliation is the “REASON AND PURPOSE ” that Jesus was born, lived, died, and rose from the dead. We all as believers have the “MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION “.
I want to ask a very important question……
“CAN THE AMERICAN CHURCH GET THINGS RIGHT WITH THE NATIVE PEOPLE IN THIS LAND? That means acknowledge and repent of the wrongs and atrocities committed. That means restoration of lands stolen. It means following Jesus Christ in making things right so he will be satisfied in it all.
Can you imagine if God is pleased with the way America responds to her “MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION?” ” If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray…..seek my face…..and turn from their wicked way…..then I will hear from heaven forgive their sins and heal their land.
