Introduction

Let them both grow together, Jesus said, until the end of the church ages. And then He said, just before I come, He said, bundle up the tares. That’s the religious, and different ones. They’ve got a form, but they don’t understand, and don’t want to believe the word of God. But my wheat, take in the barn. And the elect has begun to push all the others back, and they’ll come into full force, and then God can visit them because they’re no longer growing together. Matthew 13: 24 – 30.

And already, some of the Pentecostals, if you get too close to God in a businesslike manner, and you’re really balanced with the Word, and they don’t believe all the Word, and you’re balanced with it, then they’re going to say they’re kind of peculiar, crazy. God said we would be peculiar. And just before that group leaves, they’re going to taunt you by calling you names, mocking your baptism, your Godhead, your revelation, the urgency, the coming of the Lord. Persecution, saith the Lord, will come. The whole world will get together, persecute you. But by the time they think they’re going to really do them in and kill them, they’ll go up to meet with God. 1 Peter 2: 9; Matthew 24: 24; Matthew 24: 12.

The sign of the occult and the occult explosion; and 1 Timothy 4: 1 reveals at the latter times that these spirits would come forth, evil. And never in all mankind will we see what’s going to come in the restoring, and revival, of witchcraft, demonism, and satanic worship. And this will surround certain events at the end of the age that will cause Satan to come down. 1 Timothy 4: 1; 2 Thessalonians 2: 9 – 10; Revelation 9: 20; Revelation 13: 4.

“We are living in an age where more spellbinders are rising with false signs preparing the way for the beast system; wherein a skillful chief wizard known as the anti-christ will totally control the masses as in the form of ultra magic! – A super charmer is on his way! At first a very religious and cunning personality, but in the end reverts back into idols and abomination!”

“It’s coming into prominence that more and more church people are dabbling into anything that is supernatural whether it has any Scriptural foundation or not!”

“People start off with small amounts of witchcraft not knowing that is what it is at first, then they are taken over by spirits that actually talk to them!”

“In Bible times they used strange and odd ways to try to tell the people’s future and so forth (known today as fortune tellers).”

“Familiar spirits is all kinds of sorcery or casting of spells, etc.” – “A necromancer is one that communicates with the dead”. Isaiah 8: 19 – 20.

And a strong delusion is sent forth to deceive the unbelievers!” “All because they would not endure sound doctrine, and heap to themselves teachers having itching ears! They quit the truth and went into fables! 2 Thessalonians 2: 11; 2 Timothy 4: 3 – 4.

Some of Satan’s titles and names: death, hell, his name’s hell, destruction by his titles, plagues, violence, confusion, dissension, arguments, and all of these things, drugs, and madness, debauchery, religious Babylon; Babylon’s his name too, spirits, magic, sorcery, witchcraft, curses, demons; the titles of his name by deception, and delusion.

When you call on demonic powers, join cults, or get involved with enchantments and idol worshipping, you have joined the worldwide mystery Babylon where every evil spirit dwells, for it is “the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit.” Revelation 17: 5; Revelation 18: 2.

Ephesians 6: 12. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but principalities. He said on every hand, and against rulers of darkness, in high places, and governments, and everywhere. We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, and rulers of the darkness in these places here.

Just tell them that in the name of Jesus, all sorcery is broken, all demon powers, all ghost, all the impersonation of the dead, that’s nothing. Jesus, in the blood of Jesus, will break it for them, just like that. Don’t believe any of the curses, any of those things, that Satan’s trying to do. All you have to do is believe in the name of Jesus, and believe me, that’s no magic charm. It works better than magic. It goes beyond magic, it moves back the principalities and powers, can move this earth around, and change the mortal body into eternal life; we’ve got a great One.

You are covered by the blood of the eternal God who came to us in the form of flesh, as Jesus, and shed His blood for our salvation on the cross. Isaiah 9: 6.

Lord Jesus, with true salvation in our souls, we are covered by your blood. We have the victory over every power of the devil. But more importantly, we rejoice because our names are written in heaven. Thank you, Lord, for we shall soon see you in the translation.

You will be blessed.

Summary of the Sermon

We listened to a sermon titled “The Increase”, CD # 1378, by Brother Neal Frisby.

In the sermon, Brother Frisby said:

The increase. There’s an increase in negative signs everywhere that you look. There’s also an increase in positive signs that God gave us, showing that the end of the age is right around the corner.

Making a great bid for the youth, Satan is trying that. God will give a revival to the youth. Some of those are going to leave. In fact, he is making a bid for all the elect of God that he can, and anybody else. But if you’re tied to the anchor, the word of God, it’ll do him no good.

Let them both grow together, Jesus said, until the end of the church ages. And then He said, just before I come, He said, bundle up the tares. That’s the religious, and different ones. They’ve got a form, but they don’t understand, and don’t want to believe the word of God. But my wheat, take in the barn. But He said, let them both grow together.

Now, what’s going to happen? Fruition is coming. It’s ripening. And as long as there’s a mixture throughout the churches in the land that belong to the Lord, it’s going to kind of hinder the power of God from really moving like He wants to move. Although there’ll be miracles, and there’s great power among the elect of God, still they’re kind of hindered in there like that. And the same, by the world, on its side, because that the strong faith of the people, and the power of the elect are here, it hinders them from really ripening like they should.

Now, let them both grow together. At the end, those will begin to bundle up. And the elect has begun to push all the others back, and they’ll come into full force, and then God can visit them, because they’re no longer, both of them, growing together. And no longer are we hindering them on the other side. Finally, the elect, because they’re no longer growing together, now they’re fixing to leave. There’s that lightning and thunder. There’s where the Lord has been telling us about the power of the Spirit. Suddenly, behold, I come quickly. Then, you know, without any of the weeds, without any of those growing up, without the organized system, without all of that in there, then we can really, and God can visit His people, and it won’t take me long then, saith the Lord. As it were, the Lord tarries, and while He tarried, this took place.

Ephesians 6: 12. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but principalities. He said on every hand, and against rulers of darkness, in high places, and governments, and everywhere. We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, and rulers of the darkness in these places here. At the very end of the age, the rulers of darkness hath come upon the land. And if you know how to look, and where to look, you can see it everywhere that you look.

The very wizard of hell is coming in a man. All of the things that are occurring, that are taking place, not only in religion, but in films, and everywhere that it’s occurring, is paving the way for this wizard. And he is coming at the end of the age. The increase, the Bible says here, demonism.

God’s people are going to get closer, and the more spiritual, supernatural, He’s going to visit them in clouds and glory of God.

Revelations 12: 12, it’s because Satan knoweth that his time is short. And because he knows his time is short, he will accelerate his activity. And he can’t wait to be hurled down here completely on this earth.

But Satan knows this, that God loves you, even with some of your mistakes, and some of the things, that you’re not walking right, or you’re not as close as you should, but yet, you’re not really backslidden or anything, you’re just kind of fooling around. He’ll get you to go, and get the real ones together completely, and others, maybe you’re living close to God, and sometimes you might say or do something that you shouldn’t say, and so forth like that, but God loves the saint.

There’s prophets in the Bible, in different places. They didn’t do exactly sometimes, but the Lord loved them. He brought them out of it. Even old Samson was brought out of something. Even old Nebuchadnezzar, if you want to read the story in there, and all through the Bible, and Paul for what he did. He loved him even beforehand, and afterwards.

So, He loves the people that’s going to be with Him. And Satan knows that he can’t hurt God personally Himself. He can’t go up there and cause Him no trouble. He’s got his ticket, made him, and knows all about him, and he will do what God says to do. But he knows he can’t just go up there and hurt God. At the end, he goes to thinking he’s going to blow God up. He don’t do nothing after that millennium.

But in order to hurt God, His feelings I’m talking about, so, when God loves something, Satan will attack that person with disease. He’ll attack that person with pain. He’ll attack him every which way he can, to destroy him with the cult. With any kind of a way, with gossip, he’ll attack him. He’ll stir him up, make everybody against him, do all these things, and make the elect feel, they’re only one. Like Elijah got the feeling, yet he had 7,000, hadn’t bowed. How many more in this age, saith the Lord, I’ve got that hadn’t bowed. He’ll bring them on out, highways and hedges. He’s going to bring them on out.

So, when he does, like he did to Job, it hurt God, probably more than it did Job in some ways. He was yet to suffer Himself when He come. But he turned, it was for our admonition, it was to play a great story in history, a true one for us, to see what suffering is, and how that you can win, no matter how many friends, no matter the family, no matter what odds. Job showed that you can win. So, God let it stand, and it stood there, at Job. It hurt God, too, but He allowed it.

And the suffering of His apostles, and the martyrs of Isaiah and the prophets, and all of them. Satan attacked them, hit them, stabbed them, tried to kill them, tore in them, starved them. He knew he was hurting the Lord. But God has His day, and He’s bringing out a point that Satan don’t even know about. And so that’s why he’ll attack the children of the Lord. He knows that hurts God.

Now, at the end of the age, he’s going to try some type Pentecostal fundamentalist, and the others too, to mock, make fun, at the very thing that’s going to leave, and mock it. And already, some of the Pentecostals, if you get too close to God in a businesslike manner, and you’re really balanced with the Word, and they don’t believe all the Word, and you’re balanced with it, then they’re going to say they’re kind of peculiar, crazy. God said we would be peculiar. And they’ll look at you towards the end of the age, say, they’re crazy, them people are odd. And just before that group leaves, they’re going to taunt you. They’re going to call this, they’re going to call that. Finally, Satan’s going to get it to where if you’re sane, and a Christian, you’re crazy. And if you’re insane and worship him, you’re okay. And mankind will be like old Lucifer himself, and God’s children will be like the Lord, when it finally gets over with.

Let them both go together. And then, let them separate. And so, by calling you names, mocking your baptism, your Godhead, your revelation, the urgency, the coming of the Lord, that He is coming, and all of that, you fanatic. Pentecostals call Pentecostal fanatics, and heretics, and one thing, and another. Persecution, saith the Lord, will come. And it’ll come from where you never dreamed that it would come from when they persecute. The whole world will get together, persecute you. But by the time they think they’re going to really do them in, and kill them, they’ll go up to meet with God. And the others will flee into the wilderness from the face of the serpent. They wouldn’t believe, so they flee now, out in the wilderness there.

That’s the way Satan tries to hurt God, it’s to make fun, to mock, to hurt in any fashion, sickness, troubles, sorrows, in any way that he can.

The sign of the occult and the occult explosion; and 1 Timothy 4: 1 reveals at the latter times that these spirits would come forth, evil. And never in all mankind will we see what’s going to come in the restoring, and revival, of witchcraft, demonism, and satanic worship. And the activity is everywhere, in films, horror shows, television. And this will surround certain events at the end of the age that will cause Satan to come down. Things will be made ready. Things are prepared for him to come on down, and to take control for a moment of this earth.

And then I wrote this off another Scroll: And when children act like men, drink, crime, rape, murder, and have no correction, and women rise on high, and are rulers as men are. That means politically, and otherwise, in all kinds of ways. Then I said this here, then witches will take charge, and sorcery shall lead. That’s exactly what we’re seeing around the world. It shall stand. Meaning this prophecy will stand. And it means also that that will increase into hell and destruction, into the great tribulation, paving a way there, and so forth like that, we see all of this happening.

I’d like to read this right here: The increase, some of Satan’s titles and names: Death on the horse, death everywhere you look, he’s got the touch of death; only Jesus has eternal life. And so, his titles, death, hell, his name’s hell, destruction by his titles, plagues, violence, confusion, dissension, arguments, and all of these things, drugs, and madness, debauchery, religious Babylon; Babylon’s his name too, spirits, magic, sorcery, witchcraft, curses, demons; the titles of his name by deception, and delusion.

We fight not against flesh and blood, but principalities, rulers of darkness, are trying to take her over, down here, as God’s going to gather His children together like never before.

People gets into witchcraft, and people gets into sorcery. No matter if it’s just minor things, it bothers them. It’ll bother the soul, the nervous system, mentally, they’ll take on mentally, and physically, it’ll bother them in every way. Just tell them that in the name of Jesus, all sorcery is broken, all demon powers, all ghost, all the impersonation of the dead, that’s nothing. Jesus, in the blood of Jesus, will break it for them, just like that. Don’t believe any of the curses, any of those things, that Satan’s trying to do. All you have to do is believe in the name of Jesus, and believe me, that’s no magic charm. It works better than magic. It goes beyond magic, it moves back the principalities and powers, can move this earth around, and change the mortal body into eternal life; we’ve got a great One.

And He loves you, and that’s why Satan’s taking shots. He’s trying to hurt God, not just you. He’s trying to get to Him.

Bottom of Form

Scripture Reading

Let them both grow together, Jesus said, until the end of the church ages. And then He said, just before I come, He said, bundle up the tares. That’s the religious, and different ones. They’ve got a form, but they don’t understand, and don’t want to believe the word of God. But my wheat, take in the barn. And the elect has begun to push all the others back, and they’ll come into full force, and then God can visit them because they’re no longer growing together.

“Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.”Matthew 13: 24 – 30

And already, some of the Pentecostals, if you get too close to God in a businesslike manner, and you’re really balanced with the Word, and they don’t believe all the Word, and you’re balanced with it, then they’re going to say they’re kind of peculiar, crazy. God said we would be peculiar. And just before that group leaves, they’re going to taunt you by calling you names, mocking your baptism, your Godhead, your revelation, the urgency, the coming of the Lord. Persecution, saith the Lord, will come. The whole world will get together, persecute you. But by the time they think they’re going to really do them in and kill them, they’ll go up to meet with God.

“But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light”1 Peter 2: 9

“For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.”Matthew 24: 24

“And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.”Matthew 24: 12

The sign of the occult and the occult explosion; and 1 Timothy 4: 1 reveals at the latter times that these spirits would come forth, evil. And never in all mankind will we see what’s going to come in the restoring, and revival, of witchcraft, demonism, and satanic worship. And this will surround certain events at the end of the age that will cause Satan to come down.

“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils”1 Timothy 4: 1

“Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.”2 Thessalonians 2: 9 – 10

“And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk”Revelation 9: 20

“And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?”Revelation 13: 4

I read from Scroll # 77:

“IN THIS SCRIPT WE WANT TO BRING OUT VERY IMPORTANT THINGS TO THE ELECT CHURCH! We are living in an age where more spellbinders are rising with false signs preparing the way for the beast system; wherein a skillful chief wizard known as the anti-christ will totally control the masses as in the form of ultra magic! – A super charmer is on his way! At first a very religious and cunning personality, but in the end reverts back into idols and abomination!”

MICAH 5: 12-13, “SHOWS GOD WILL CUT OFF WITCHCRAFT AND THE SOOTHSAYERS, He will also cut the graven images and idols off! – It’s coming into prominence that more and more church people are dabbling into anything that is supernatural whether it has any Scriptural foundation or not!” – I Tim. 4:1, “Now the spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils! People start off with small amounts of witchcraft not knowing that is what it is at first, then they are taken over by spirits that actually talk to them!

In Bible times they used strange and odd ways to try to tell the people’s future and so forth (known today as fortune tellers). The Bible continues, or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer!”

“Familiar spirits is all kinds of sorcery or casting of spells, etc.” – “A necromancer is one that communicates with the dead” Isa. 8: 19-20, “When they shall say unto you, seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? For the living to the dead? To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word it is because there is no light in them!”

“THE REAL CHRISTIAN WHO FOLLOWS THE WORD and the Lord’s true servants will have no trouble with witchcraft! Stay true to His word is the answer!

PAUL POINTS OUT THAT THE CHIEF RELIGIOUS WIZARD OF ALL TIME WILL EXALT HIMSELF IN THE TEMPLE OF GOD with ultra magic proclaiming that he is God! (II Thess. 2: 4) – “But the real invincible God (our champion Jesus) shall, with the spirit of His mouth, destroy the false god with the brightness of His coming!” (verse 8) – Verse 9, “gives us another dimension of this anti-christ whose coming is after the working of satan with all power, signs and lying wonders!” – “As we said before, these spellbinders set it up for his appearance! And a strong delusion is sent forth to deceive the unbelievers!” (verse 11) – II Tim. 4: 3-4, “All because they would not endure sound doctrine, and heap to themselves teachers having itching ears! They quit the truth and went into fables!

“And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie”2 Thessalonians 2: 11

“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.”2 Timothy 4: 3 – 4

Some of Satan’s titles and names: death, hell, his name’s hell, destruction by his titles, plagues, violence, confusion, dissension, arguments, and all of these things, drugs, and madness, debauchery, religious Babylon; Babylon’s his name too, spirits, magic, sorcery, witchcraft, curses, demons; the titles of his name by deception, and delusion.

When you call on demonic powers, join cults, or get involved with enchantments and idol worshipping, you have joined the worldwide mystery Babylon where every evil spirit dwells, for it is “the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit.”

“And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.”Revelation 17: 5

“And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.”Revelation 18: 2

Ephesians 6: 12. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but principalities. He said on every hand, and against rulers of darkness, in high places, and governments, and everywhere. We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, and rulers of the darkness in these places here.

Just tell them that in the name of Jesus, all sorcery is broken, all demon powers, all ghost, all the impersonation of the dead, that’s nothing. Jesus, in the blood of Jesus, will break it for them, just like that. Don’t believe any of the curses, any of those things, that Satan’s trying to do. All you have to do is believe in the name of Jesus, and believe me, that’s no magic charm. It works better than magic. It goes beyond magic, it moves back the principalities and powers, can move this earth around, and change the mortal body into eternal life; we’ve got a great One.

You are covered by the blood of the eternal God who came to us in the form of flesh, as Jesus, and shed His blood for our salvation on the cross.

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”Isaiah 9: 6

Lord Jesus, with true salvation in our souls, we are covered by your blood. We have the victory over every power of the devil. But more importantly, we rejoice because our names are written in heaven. Thank you, Lord, for we shall soon see you in the translation.

You will be blessed.
