Mark 12:30-31 you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment. The second is like this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
In his last teaching, before his health tragedy, Pastor Scott said that ANYTHING you worship, think about, let rule you, believe other than Him and do the above, IS A FALSE GOD. Now, I know there are those out there that are going to take offense and, maybe, totally disagree with me on what I am about to say, but, this includes putting the rules of the saints ABOVE those of Christ. This is not easy. The rules of the saints are patterns to reach for. Not necessarily reached.
If I spent my day telling everyone around me exacting my feelings on how they are living, I would not have one friend. And I could preach Bible verses to back up everything I say to them. The only thing I would do would offend them, turn them away from the God I am trying to help draw them to, and end up without anyone wanting to listen or be around me.
The first commandment takes a lot more time than the second. Why? Because it means to take the time to communicate with God. At night I wake throughout the night. When I do I wake communicating with God and go back to sleep while talking with Him. During that time I am at my most vulnerable because my mind is clear of most thought other than Him. This is when I realize that sometime in my life I have been guilty of the very things that I am now seeing in others. How enslaving I was of others, making sure they provided what I needed with no thought as to their needs. How much better I was to them, in my eyes, and how bitter that they could not see how wonderful I really was. How I sacrificed so that I would be applauded for all the good I did. How I stepped out and tried constantly to martyr myself, so that everyone would remember my dedication and loyalty. I had a veracious appetite for sex and allowed myself to be used and abused, thinking this was the way to love and I would never be loved without it. All I wanted, I kept telling myself was to be appreciated. I got very messed up in the occult. There are areas there I still do not want to talk about. But I became a stalker, and am still very embarrassed about that. In other words, I allowed satan to really have a ball with me. All along thinking, I was ok. I was like everyone else. Except I had a conscious that kept bothering me. I kept ignoring it, but, it would not ignore me. Sending nightmares that I learned to fall in love with. I became a closet “Goth”. Living mentally in tombs as a vampire. All along thinking that I was sacrificing myself to protect others. Protect them from what? I was the monster!
I tell you all of this to let you know just how far your fantasies can take you before you even realize. Who or what is at the root of your thoughts? ANYTHING that is not of the Kingdom of God, the commandments of Christ, is a false god!
Now whenever I have ANY thought that would be of earthly passion, (I am celibate), violent, distorted, anything I know is not appropriate for my lifestyle today, I pray this prayer:
Dear Lord,
Please remove satan and his governments from my mind. body, heart, soul, and spirit and those of all living things under my roof. Please wrap me and all living creatures, (other humans or even pets) with Your Protective Arms. Wrap Your Protective Arms around my apartment, (house, trailer, etc) and do not allow evil to enter in. In Jesus name. Amen
I pray this every twenty-four hours. It is also good to pray The Lord’s Prayer as well. You will be surprised how, after a while, you will notice a difference in the atmosphere. You will grow closer to the Lord and others will notice a difference when they walk into your home. I am doing all I can to become more humble because when you love Him as much as you can, you will want to do all you can. God bless.

Dear Friends,
Greetings in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. This message is being sent for prayer requests for our beloved Pastor Scott Davidson. On Dec 1, 2008, Pastor Scott Davidson became ill with acute right side rib cage pain, uncontrollable vomitting, high fevers and chills. He was admitted to Miami Valley Hospital, Dayton OH on Dec 2nd. On Dec 4th, he underwent a surgical procedure for removal of a gallbladder stone that was blocking the bile duct. Also, a temporary shunt was placed for any future stones. On Dec 6th, Pastor Scott had a laparoscopy surgery for removal of the galbladder. Unfortunately a complication has arisen due to the second surgery. One lung is partially collapsed. Both lungs are suffering from inflammation and fluid. He is having breathing difficulty. As a result of this complication, breathing has become painful.
He is scheduled for a third surgery on Dec, 29th at 9:00 am.
Please pray for Pastor Scott and his family. As you can only imagine, this is a very difficult time for Pastor Scott, Suchi, the children and the Soul Winners family.
For the sake of effective communication, we will be updating our website when new information is available. For further inquiries, please call (937) 220-9488.
We appreciate your prayer support.
Sincerely,

Luke 16:17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one dot of the law to fail.
Mankind today does not see the difference between the evil imaginings of his heart and the truth of the Word of God. Blaspheming the Word of God by twisting or changing the meaning is extremely dangerous territory.
Revelation 22:18 For I testify unto every man that hears the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
Revelation 22:19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
In the end of the New Testament there is a warning. Some take it just for Revelations and others for the entire Bible. This warning is not just an ancient copyright. There is not a negotiation. Of course since no one will see the threat come to pass, until the fulfillment, we can just brush it off as just part of the fanaticism of evangelical Christianity and just as imaginary as all other “religious” threats.
Deuteronomy 29:19 And it comes to pass, when he hears the words of this curse, that he blesses himself in his heart, saying, I shall have peace, though I walk in the imagination of my heart, to add drunkenness to thirst:
Deuteronomy 29:20 The LORD will not spare him, but then the anger of the LORD and his jealousy shall smoke against that man, and all the curses that are written in this book shall lie upon him, and the LORD shall blot out his name from under heaven.
It is too bad that we have allowed satan to whisper in our ear, “You surely will not die.” Oh, no. After all, we were not in the Garden of Eden and do not know what it could have been like not to die. So, we have no knowledge that we will be totally removed from creation. What would that even feel like? Do we even care?
Too much has been made into a joke. Life is to be taken lightly. Well, yes, this life can be taken lightly because we are not for this life. But, when we take the experience God put us here for so that we can be ready to be with Him forever, as a joke, then, we are walking on very dangerous areas. Taking God at His Word is very wise and should be treasured, not used as the butt of jokes.
Sin does take God as a joke and sees no difference in God being a object of imagination any less than any other myth. A forest full of fairies, trolls, dragons, etc. are as real as Christ? Confusion is so great that someone almost stood up in church and started to say that Christ pulled the sword from the stone, (a myth involving an English king named Arthur).
Today mankind is trying to prove that it is not what you believe, only that you believe it. That faith in anything is much better than no faith at all. Satan will show you that distorted faith can bring physical healing, but, destruction of the mind. Madness can be traced to misplaced faith.
Today satan is confusing the believer into thinking that all that is needed is to do good and show compassion. There is no need to worship a God. Church should be a social organization that does good and builds relationships. Do not get me wrong, with the belief in God and death on the cross for my and your sins and repentance; good deeds are great as well as building love for one another. But belief, repentance, acceptance, and obedience to the Words of God comes first. Then, the other things follow. The cart cannot come before the horse. But it is so easy to say, “The Bible says to love one another.” And take it to mean to accept the sins of one another.
Genesis 6:5 Yahweh saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
This is the heart of man. How can we love one another? Love those who love Him. Pray for those who do not know Him that He will send someone to go to them and lead them to Him. If you can, do it. Only through Him can we love each other. And it is only through His Word that we come to Him. When that is distorted or corrupted, then, satan jumps with glee that we are once more confused right into his hands. It is through confusion that he tricks us right back to him. Please pray that those who wish to have another religion should start a new religion and not corrupt the Word. For those who really know Christ, we know that the whole world is different to us and life is so much sweeter. Without people really believing the truth of His Word they will never see the awesome beauty of what God always intended.
For those who have heard or know Pastor Scott Davidson, he is in Miami Valley Hospital in Dayton, Ohio and will go into surgery Saturday for removal of his gall bladder. Please send your prayers. Thank you.
