JESUS IS ALIVE IN HOUSTON

When I first read that headline I thought good, Jesus should be alive everywhere and in everybody. But the first sentence was like reading a horror story. The mark of the beast, tattooed on your body as a sign of Christ.

I have to give credit to this man who leads these people, he does call himself the antichrist. But rather then tell you about the man, I will let you read it for yourself.

The point I want you to see in this is that as extreme as it sounds, he has believers and followers. We can plainly see this is not from God. But what of the small things that many religions teach, that people so easily believe; such as the extreme belief’s such as how Mary is prayed to in a unnamed religion.

I can never say this enough, LIES, people you are being taught lies. And even when someone shows you the truth, you still continue to hold on to those traditions because: your Momma, your Daddy, Grandma bless her soul, told you that something was so. Well I have news for you; if Momma, Daddy and Grandma could tell you anything right now it would be this. Lies baby it is all lies, let go and seek the truth, please.

But no, you hold on to the practices, and traditions and refuse to let go. Someone tried to tell Momma, Daddy and Grandma and a lot of other people who have already died. They did not listen. And they have to pay for it.

It is your choice, I made mine. As the young people say nowadays “See ya don’t want to be ya”. People please let go of all this religious trash and seek the truth.

You will read this and say these people are crazy; but some of your beliefs might be just as off the wall as theirs only better hidden.

Jose de Luis Jesus—ABC NEWS

The following is parts of the article:
March 6, 2007— A few weeks ago, in a tattoo parlor in the hip art deco district of Miami Beach, people were lining up to get "666" tattooed on their bodies, and then smiling through their pain. But these are not devil worshipers. They see themselves as devout followers of Jesus Christ. But the major difference that separates them from other Christians around the world is that the Jesus Christ they worship is alive and well — and living in the suburbs of Houston
These people belong to a new movement devoted to a man who calls himself the Second Coming of Jesus, and also claims the title of Antichrist, which to him is the next incarnation of Jesus on earth, not an evil being. To show their devotion, some followers ink themselves with "666." One follower said, "I just want to make sure it's visible, that everyone knows my life belongs to the man." Another said, "I want everyone to know I'm one of the antichrists."
They and others like them are fervently devoted, some say fanatically, to a 60-year-old Puerto Rican whose legal name, to his pleasure, is Jose de Jesus, or "Jose of Jesus." He counts followers in more than 30 countries; some say they total more than a million. But where does this man, who claims to be God, live? Not where you might expect: He resides with his wife in a suburban community just outside Houston.

The same spirit that was in Jesus of Nazareth, and the same spirit is in me. He came to me. He [integrated] with my person in 1973." de Jesus says this happened when two angels came to him in a vision, and while he admits there's no real way for him to prove that he's Christ, he says his followers aren't asking for proof.
The Birth of 'Jesus'
When asked to explain who he is, de Jesus responds: "Jesus Christ, man, the second manifestation, the Second Coming of Christ." He acknowledges, "It bothers a lot of people" that he calls himself Jesus.
De Jesus' beginning was anything but grand. Born in Puerto Rico, de Jesus grew up poor, living in government housing. He stole for a living to pay for his teenage heroin addiction and admits to eight felony charges that put him behind bars for nine months.
Like many, de Jesus says he was born again in prison. From there he moved to the United States, where he became involved in church youth groups, and eventually a minister in Boston. But it was a vision, de Jesus says, that turned him from man of God to being God.
"Before the presence of God, there's no more sin," he says. And with no sin, de Jesus teaches his followers, there's no devil and no need for prayer, because after Jesus of Nazareth died and was resurrected, one can literally do no wrong in God's eyes.
De Jesus says things like murder and theft are crimes, but not sins, and that people are punished for these crimes on earth. "Heaven doesn't have anything to do with your behavior," he says.
And de Jesus practices what he preaches: He loves women and has been married twice. He smokes cigarettes and while enjoying a glass of scotch, he says, "Jesus drank wine because he didn't have Dewar's."
De Jesus doesn't mind that his ministry often gathers in the corner tavern. "Like my former, Jesus of Nazareth, he used to go to places like this and the religious people, they used to criticize him. … I'm just doing the same kind of thing."
But he does draw the line: no drugs, and he says no getting drunk.
The de Jesus ministry is growing, with big followings in Venezuela, Columbia, even Cuba, and the man who believes he is the Second Coming of Christ is now turning his attention to America.
"Miami is the bridge for all nations," he said. "That's where Hispanics are, and then eventually I'm going to find a lot of beautiful English-speaking people who will want to believe in me and I'm going to have millions of them."
And what about the children who grow up in his movement believing that Jesus is alive and well? He calls them the "super raza" or the super race, because they are being brought up pure and with no stain of false religion on them.

So there you have it and you can see from reading it that it is not true. You know in your heart it is not true. You know in your soul it is lies. Why then do you take for truth that which is passed down to you, and not ask questions to find out if it is the truth?

God Bless
