L-Methylfolate, an email to my brother in Christ
From an email in 2016 you listed
the supplements you take:
Acetyl L-Carnitine Arginate
(ALCA): I take 2.4 g/day.
Alpha-glycerophosphorylcholine
(alpha-GPC): I take 300 mg/day.
Citicoline: I take 500
mg/day.

Pyrroloquinoline Quinone
(PQQ): I take 40 mg/day.
L-Taurine: I take 4

Methylfolate: I take 20
mg/day.
But, I have heard that the regular
run-of-the-mill person should look at the ingredients of food, and if they can’t
read it, they shouldn’t eat it. I know you are well versed in chemistry and its
terminology, but let’s not discard the commoners as ignorant masses. The Lord
has His wise virgins sprinkled all over the place. It was
“The common people heard Him
gladly.” (Mark 12:37).
And,
“But God hath chosen the
foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak
things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; and base things of
the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things
which are not, to bring to nought things that are: that no flesh should glory
in His presence.” (1Cor. 1:27-29).
But, the real issue I tried
to explain last night.
“He that believeth on the Son
hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life;
but the wrath of God abideth on him.” (John 3:36).
The wrath of God is the curse
of the Law. The wrath of God is the result of the separation that sin causes.
It is the scourging that God levels against all who resist Him while He is
trying to save them.
“For whom the Lord loveth He
chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.” (Heb. 12:6).
“As many as I love, I rebuke
and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.” (Rev. 3:19).
Who He loves He prunes.
“I am the true vine, and My
Father is the husbandman. Every branch in Me that beareth not fruit He taketh
away: and every branch that beareth fruit, He purgeth it, that it may bring
forth more fruit.” (John 15:1,2).
But, we resist, and suffer
under the cursed chastisement.
“The kings of the earth set
themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against
His Anointed, saying,
Let us break their bands
asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
He that sitteth in the
heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.” (Ps. 2:2-4).
“For the flesh lusteth
against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary
the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.” (Gal.
5:17).
In our fight against God, He
always wins.
“Am I a God at hand, saith
the LORD, and not a God afar off? Can any hide himself in secret places that I
shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the
LORD.” (Jer. 23:23,24).
“The LORD is a man of war:
the LORD is His name.” (Ex. 15:3).
Will we submit? Will we be His
subjects or His rejects? If we will not be subject to the will of God, then our
fate will be a miserable one.
“Lest there should be among
you a root that beareth gall and wormwood;
And it come to pass, when he
heareth the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, I
shall have peace, though I walk in the imagination of mine heart, to add
drunkenness to thirst:
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.
And the LORD shall separate
him unto evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of
the covenant that are written in this book of the law:” (Deut. 29:18-21).
“The same shall drink of the
wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of His
indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence
of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: and the smoke of their
torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night,
who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his
name.” (Rev. 14:10,11).
“And 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 [instead
of] 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.
And they shall pass through
it, hardly bestead and hungry: and it shall come to pass, that when they shall
be hungry, they shall fret themselves, and curse their king and their God, and
look upward.
And they shall look unto the
earth; and behold trouble and darkness, dimness of anguish; and they shall be
driven to darkness.” (Isa. 8:19-22).
“And that the whole land
thereof is brimstone, and salt, and burning, that it is not sown, nor beareth,
nor any grass groweth therein, like the overthrow of Sodom, and Gomorrah,
Admah, and Zeboim, which the LORD overthrew in His anger, and in His wrath:
Even all nations shall say,
Wherefore hath the LORD done thus unto this land? what meaneth the heat of this
great anger?
Then men shall say, Because
they have forsaken the covenant of the LORD God of their fathers, which he made
with them when He brought them forth out of the land of Egypt:
For they went and served
other gods, and worshipped them, gods whom they knew not, and whom He had not
given unto them.” (Deut. 29:23-26).
“If I shut up heaven that
there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send
pestilence among My people; if My people, which are called by My name, shall
humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways;
then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their
land.” (2Chron. 7:13,14).
“And they that are left of
you shall pine away in their iniquity in your enemies’ lands; and also in the
iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them.
If they shall confess their
iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with their trespass which they
trespassed against me, and that also they have walked contrary unto Me;
And that I also have walked
contrary unto them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if
then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the
punishment of their iniquity:
Then will I remember My
covenant with Jacob, and also My covenant with Isaac, and also My covenant with
Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.” (Lev. 26:39-42).
What is the context of “If my
people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray”? Isn’t
it that they abandoned the laws and statutes of the covenant that the Lord gave
them? And then He gave them diseases? Wasn’t the cause of all their physical
ailments a spiritual cause? And wasn’t the remedy a spiritual remedy?
“Wherefore I was grieved with
that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not
known My ways.
So I sware in My wrath, They
shall not enter into My rest.)
Take heed, brethren, lest
there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living
God.…
And to whom sware He that
they should not enter into His rest, but to them that believed not?
Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being
left us of entering into His rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.…
For we which have believed do
enter into rest, as He said, As I have sworn in My wrath, if they shall enter
into My rest.” (Heb. 3:10-12,18-4:1,3).
Yet, the seared conscience
and hardened hearts of most would never believe this. By the chastisement of
their peace, Jesus was simply trying to lead them to repentance. It was His
goodness, but they would not fall on Him broken. It was too hard to admit and
confess that “they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their
fathers, with their trespass which they trespassed against Me, and that also
they have walked contrary unto me; And that I also have walked contrary unto
them.” (Lev. 26:40,41). It was too intolerable for “their uncircumcised hearts
[to] be humbled” (Lev. 26:41) and to “accept of the punishment of their
iniquity” (Lev. 26:41). It was too humiliating to be children suffering the
discipline of a heavenly Father. It was too hard to repent. So they trusted in
the princes of this world, in whom there is no help, whose breath goeth forth
and they pass away like the grass that withereth and the flower that falleth
away and the place thereof remembereth it no more.
“Go up into Gilead, and take
balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain shalt thou use many medicines;
for thou shalt not be cured.” (Jer. 46:11).
“Were not the Ethiopians and
the Lubims a huge host, with very many chariots and horsemen? yet, because thou
didst rely on the LORD, He delivered them into thine hand.
For the eyes of the LORD run
to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew Himself strong in the behalf of
them whose heart is perfect toward Him. Herein thou hast done foolishly:
therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.
Then Asa was wroth with the
seer, and put him in a prison house; for he was in a rage with him because of
this thing. And Asa oppressed some of the people the same time.
And, behold, the acts of Asa,
first and last, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
And Asa in the thirty and
ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was
exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD, but to the
physicians.
And Asa slept with his
fathers, and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.” (2Chron.
16:8-13).
“Behold, all ye that kindle a
fire, that compass yourselves about with sparks: walk in the light of your
fire, and in the sparks that ye have kindled. This shall ye have of Mine hand;
ye shall lie down in sorrow.” (Isa. 50:11).
This has been the sad history
of the lost human race.
“Even so then at this present
time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.… What then?
Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained
it, and the rest were blinded.” (Rom. 11:5-7).
Let that not happen to us. The
world chases after its humanly devised cures for the wrath of God. The
chastisement of our peace was upon His Son; their damnation was satisfied in
Him. But because they would not admit to being chastised they could never need
the propitiation that the Son accomplished for them. Therefore they must suffer
that anxious, mind disturbing curse that Christ took for us. But He took it
largely in vain because most chose not to take advantage of it. Today, the
Protestants’ prophet could have brought them down to the baptism of repentance,
but their prophet was ignored—Ellen G. White. They greatest of all proofs that
she was the true prophet of the Lord is her powerful conviction of sins. Yet,
Satan has succeeded in steering multitudes away from being convicted, humbled
into the dust, reconciled with God, justified by Him, and blessed by His Spirit.
Their uncircumcised heart could never be humbled to accept the punishment of
their iniquities. Sin never could become exceeding sinful. They could never
become guilty before God. The Law could never be their Schoolmaster to bring
them to Christ to be justified by trusting in His mercy and propitiation for
them. What He ever lives to do for them He is not able to do. Therefore the
plagues will fall on them because they earned the mark of the beast.
Let that never once be said
of us.
“That your faith should not
stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are
perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world,
that come to nought:
But we speak the wisdom of
God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world
unto our glory:
Which none of the princes of
this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord
of glory.
But as it is written, Eye
hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the
things which God hath prepared for them that love Him.
But God hath revealed them
unto us by His Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep
things of God.” (1Cor. 2:5-10).
“Then shall thy light break
forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy
righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy
rereward. Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and
he shall say, Here I am.” (Isa. 58:8,9)
“To appoint unto them that
mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning,
the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called
trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that He might be glorified.
And they shall build the old
wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the
waste cities, the desolations of many generations.
And strangers shall stand and
feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your plowmen and your
vinedressers.
But ye shall be named the
Priests of the LORD: men shall call you the Ministers of our God: ye shall eat
the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.
For your shame ye shall have
double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in
their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them.”
(Isa. 61:3-7).
“Blessed are the poor in
spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they that mourn:
for they shall be comforted.
Blessed are the meek: for
they shall inherit the earth.” (Matt. 5:3-5).
