Hi, welcome to my blog! 🦉🌘🌄🇮🇱
My name is Seth Brown, and my number one desire is to grow in the first commandment, to love God with all of my heart soul mind and strength, and to proclaim the message of Jesus’ return with Biblical clarity. I believe that when the church grows in wholeheartedness for Jesus, even in the midst of intense trial, that will provoke many to see the beauty of Jesus and overcome offense at His leadership. (Psalm45:2)
Here’s some core convictions I have…
Man is by nature sinful and in need of redemption (Jer17:9)
Jesus (fully man and fully God) is the only way of salvation through His substitutionary death. No one comes to the Father but through Him. He was crucified under Pontius Pilate, and resurrected on the third day vindicating His victory over death. (John14:6, Gal2:20)
To be saved, we need to repent (turn away from sin), and be baptized in repentance (water) and the Spirit. (Acts2:38)
God’s Word, illuminated by the Holy Spirit, guides us into truth that transforms our understanding, giving us the mind of Christ. (1Cor2:10)
The Father, the Son, and the Spirit are all in perfect unity together as three coequal distinct persons of the Godhead (trinity), and the gift of the Holy Spirit gives us deep relationship with the trinity. (John17:23)
The Holy Spirit empowers the church to operate in gifts that He sovereignly apportions. These gifts are meant for evangelism (proclaim God’s word), and to encourage the church. (1Cor12-14)
God has a plan to redeem the earth from sin. Jesus will return to Jerusalem (yes, the real place) to rule and reign as the Jewish king and messiah, and from Israel He will restore the Earth over 1,000 years. We are crucified with Christ and therefore raise with Him (resurrection of the dead), and get to participate in the Kingdom of God as coheirs. (Psalm2:6, Rev20:6, 1Cor15:54)
After the 1,000 years, the New Jerusalem will descend to the earth (heaven on earth) and the Father will dwell with us. Satan will be defeated, and eternity will begin. (Rev21)
I hold to a view of eschatology (end times) known as historic premillennialism. It’s historic because it’s the view of the early church, and it’s premillennial because Jesus returns before the 1,000 years. This means I do not believe in a pre-tribulation rapture, the commonly held belief that the church will be taken up into heaven before the tribulation period on the earth. I believe the church will go through this period with Israel, and that as the gentiles grow in wholeheartedness for Jesus it will provoke Israel to jealousy leading to mass revival even in the midst of intense pressures. The end times is a greater exodus, mirroring when Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt.
So that’s a lot right? Well, don’t worry. The Bible is a big book, and there’s a lot of deep stuff in there. But when we seek God with sincerity He will guide us into living understanding and transform our minds and hearts in the love of God.
For starters, I’d encourage you to pray this simple prayer asking for the Holy Spirit to give supernatural understanding.
“that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places,”
Ephesians 1:17-20 ESV
No matter how far you’ve strayed, consider the nail pierced hands of Jesus as proof of His supernatural love towards you. No one gets to God by being good enough. You can’t earn it, so don’t even try. Just come to Him with all of your pain, trauma, brokenness, and shame, and watch what He does.

“CALLED, AND CHOSEN”
You are not forgotten! You are not forsaken. The Lord will bring you out with a might hand.
5 For your Maker is your husband, The Lord of hosts is His name; And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel; He is called the God of the whole earth. 6 For the Lord has called you Like a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, Like a youthful wife when you were refused, ”Says your God. 7 “For a mere moment I have forsaken you, But with great mercies I will gather you. 8 With a little wrath I hid My face from you for a moment; But with everlasting kindness I will have mercy on you, ”Says the Lord, your Redeemer. (Isiah 54:5-8)
17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And their righteousness is from Me, ”Says the Lord. ( Isiah 54:17)
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. (Mark 16:16). 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. (Acts2:38). You are called and chosen, but it do you no good unless you response positively to the call of repentance.

On Sunday I was baptized in Jesus name. I just want to let everyone know that all the churches that do the "Say after me prayers" that is not salvation. In Acts2:38 it has been made very clear the way to get saved and have eternal redemption. You must be baptized in Jesus name and be filled with the holy spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues. Please invest in your soul and look into going to a Oneness Apostolic Pentecostal Church in your area. Here is a link 💡 💡 ☁ ☁ ☁ https://www.upci.org/ for UPC churches. This is the truth. I'm sad about all the churches out there with no salvation and only half truths. One day I want to bring millions and millions of souls into the kingdom of God. #Brazilianprincess #Westcoast #Futuremillionaire #Wealthoverpoverty #Theprincesstales #Royalty #Redemption https://www.instagram.com/p/B1HVTCGl5Kp/?igshid=dm4dyi3mj26j

WHO ARE THE SAVED? The saved are those who obey the Gospel. It does not matter which denomination you belong. If you obey the Gospel you are saved, you are free from the punishment of your sins. You are a Christian. You have been added to the Lord's Church.
THE REQUIREMENTS TO OBEY THE GODPEL.
1. Faith: John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believeth on him, may not perish, but have eternal life. (TBVOTNT bu Chester Estes)
2. Repentance & Baptism: Acts 2:38...Let each one of you repent and be immersed, in the name of Jesus Christ, in order to the remission of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. (TBVOTNT by Chesterbestes)
3. Confession: Romans 10:9 That if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and will believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (TBVOTNT by Chester Estes)
4. Believe & Be Baptized: He who has believed, and has been immersed, will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. (TBVOTNT by Chester Estes)
Those who obey the Gospel are added to the Lords Church. Acts2:47...the lord added to the church those who were being saved.

"GREAT EXPECTTION"
God is always the one who makes the difference in any situation. So great expectation precedes a miracle. If you are looking for a job, a spouse, a baby, ministry or just want to be “saved”, you should always come with an attitude of expectation. God meets you on the level of your expectation. So if you are not looking to God for anything, then you will get nothing!
18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. (James 2:18)
26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
(James 2:26)
So if you are looking to go to heaven then you have to respond to the Bible in the affirmative by your very action:
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. (Mark 16:16).
38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. (Acts2:38)

WHAT THE APOSTLE PETER DID NOT SAY... by Steve Finnell
On the Day of Pentecost the apostle Peter preached the first gospel sermon of the New Covenant. He preached Jesus (Acts 2:22-36) Three Thousand men asked Peter what they should do. (Acts 2:37) Peter told them in (Acts 2:38). Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them. Let each one of you repent and be immersed, in the name of Jesus Christ, in order to the remission of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. TBVONT.)
WHAT THE APOSTLE PETER DID NOT SAY:
1. Peter did not say, "Infants, toddler, and all adults need to repent and be immersed for the sins that you inherited from Adam and Eve and the sins you have subsequently committed."
2. Peter did not say, "Repent and be baptized because your sins have already been forgiven."
3. Peter did not say, "You do not have to do anything because, you were saved the very minute you believed in Jesus. You were saved by "Faith Alone."
4. Peter did not say, "Those of you that were selected for salvation need to repent. Those of you who were selected by God to spend eternity in hell are without hope."
5. Peter did not say, "Repent and be sprinkled or have water poured on you so your sins may be forgiven."
6. Peter did not say, "Do not worry about being immersed in the name of Jesus Christ because there are many other ways to heaven."
7. Peter did not say, "Do not worry because you will be saved by Grace Alone. If God selects you for salvation He will give the Faith to believe and be saved. You have no responsiblity in your own salvation."
Men do need to do something in order to be saved:
They need to believe. (John 3:16)
They need to repent. (Acts 3:19)
They need to confess. (Romans 10:9-10)
They need to be immersed in water. (Acts2:38, Mark 16:16, Acts 22:16, Galatians 3:27)
