~~~~~ TRANSFORMED ~~~~~

Romans 12:1--I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your BODIES a living sacrifice, HOLY, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable SERVICE.

2--And be NOT conformed to this world: but be ye TRANSFORMED by the renewing of your mind, that he may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

TRANSFORMED:~~~~~~ (Webster’s Collegiate)--1. a: to change in composition or structure.

b. to change the outward form or appearance of

c. to change in character or condition: CONVERT.

TRANSFORM implies a major change in form, nature, or function.

Now, go back to verse one: it said to present your ---WHAT?

BODY--- a living sacrifice ( no longer the killed sacrifices of the O.T. Covenant - Law )

Your body living a certain way unto God--

What way? -- The first condition or requirement --- HOLY. To be Holy As He is Holy. This is what is ACCEPTABLE unto God, this is your reasonable SERVICE. This is how you serve, or your work to God.

So without being HOLY, you are not doing your reasonable work to God.

CONFORM; --(Webster’s Collegiate)---1. to be similar or identical; also to be in agreement or harmony to or with.

2. to be obedient or compliant

b. to act in accordance with prevailing standards or customs.

So here we have a good definition of both ‘transform�?and ‘conform�? We also have a COMMAND from God to be TRANSFORMED --- TO NOT BE CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD.

Only one willfully denying the truth of God could fail to see what is being said in these two verses.

God is commanding us to change our character, our OUTWARD form or appearance- to cross the standards and customs around us in the world. If one refuses to do this, they are out of the will of God and will not be accepted by God. Did I make that up?

Did the word above not say this is your reasonable service by which you would be acceptable unto God?

We are also COMMANDED to not be conformed any longer to the world.

This means not to be similar of identical or in agreement or harmony with the worldly standards and customs around us.-- to not obey their ways or be in accordance with their standards or customs.

But what do almost 100% of the people and churches believe and tell us?

Oh, we must not be different; we must not make anyone mad or uncomfortable by being different or telling them to be different; we need to all be just alike, etc.

They will say, all the churches celebrate x-mas, easter, and all the other devil worship days, so we must do it too. If it were not alright, all of them would not be doing it? REALLY? Then I ask you, DOES THE WORLD DO IT? If so, we are told to be different from that. We are commanded not to conform to their customs.

Jer. 10 also commanded God’s people not to ‘learn�?the ways of the HEATHEN; for their CUSTOMS are vain. The go out into the woods, cut down a green tree, go home, decorate it etc. We are COMMANDED by God not to conform to that.

I will give some more on this later.

~~~~~~ Conforming to the World ~~~~~~

We are told in Romans 12:2-- Be Not Conformed to this world. So what does this mean? Anything which the world loves and highly esteems is to be rejected by the Christian. The worlds way of dressing, conducting themselves, things they watch (movies, t.v., etc) are to be rejected by the Christian.

If you love the world, and the things of the world, the Love of the Father is not in you. This is how you can know if you are a sinner or a Christian - by what you love.

One of the main ways the church people are conforming to the world is in the way they dress. Remember, it said to be transformed meant to change the outward appearance. We find this very much smeared by church people. They will claim that the outward appearance has nothing to do with being a Christian; but see, God say not to conform to their styles.

No so long ago, women and girls wore dresses down to their ankles. Then the world started them shortening them a few inches at a time, until finally they could wear them above their knees with no feeling of shame at all. This is a big sin and shame.

Now lets look at another word: TRANSVESTITE.

Webster’s Collegiate--- : trans + vestire to clothe--- a person and esp. a male who adopts the DRESS and often the behavior typical of the opposite sex esp. for purposes of EMOTIONAL or sexual gratification.

Now this tells us that TRANSVESTITISM is dressing like the opposite sex. It can be either for EMOTIONAL or SEXUAL gratification.

After the world got women to wearing dresses way up their legs, then they started showing them women in movies and magazines wearing pants. They made this appear as something wonderful to do. So women and men fell for it. This is perversion.

God gave a command in the O.T. for neither male nor female to wear a garment which pertains to the opposite sex. He said all who do so are an abomination to God. He hates them. God hates perversion of nature. He said nature itself teaches us that if a man wears long hair it is a shame to him. But If a woman has long hair, down for a covering, this is her glory. It is protection from evil angels. Also he said it is not comely for her to pray uncovered (having long hair, hanging down).

Now women and men alike are changing the natural things and doing what is natural for the opposite sex to do. This is TRANSVESTITISM.

God hates it. Yet the false hirelings of the church are silent about this. They will not rebuke it for they are after your money. They care not for your soul; so they will not tell you this is sin.

You are living in OPEN DEFIANCE AND REBELLION to the Living God to dress this way and for women to cut off their hair or men to wear long hair. It is rebellion to God and refusal to obey these commandments to be not conformed to the world; but be ye transformed by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND.

This means to reset your mind to know and obey the word of God. It means to repent of your sins of rebelling against God, of dressing as the opposite sex and behaving as the opposite sex. It is contrary to nature and God hates it.

I have actually heard some women say they did not feel right in a dress. See they had been raised up in pants and therefore did not even have the natural feelings of being feminine. They knew not how a woman should feel. This is a shame and a sin for people to raise their daughters this way, so that they are forever contrary to the Living God. It will doom their souls; unless they can find a place of repentance. And almost no one is telling them they need to change this method of conducting themselves.

It is TRANSVESTITISM. Let no one deceive you. It is hated by God.

I am glad that I am on your side.If God be for you who can stand against you. The world or should I say church needs to be transformed.
Acs 3:19
Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come * from the presence of the Lord;

Dear fellowsoldier of the Kingdom of Jesus ----- 
 
So the people here can see the mighty working of God in all this;  I want to tell anyone here to check the timing of my message to you under the thing Echo put on about us Musketeers; ----  we were writting at exactly the same time ---- the same thing to each other---- we posted at the very same time----- only God could bring these things about.
 
What a mighty God we are serving;  what a mighty working He is doing.  I want our people to see and know that God is moving by His Spirit right here among us now.  Let your faith be strong, people of God.
 
Jo, His soldier
