The Hard Gospel 🕊️ @GodManifest

Uploaded August 2026 | Updated September 2026, 2 minutes ago

Jesus said, “Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you.” (Matthew 5:44)

That’s not soft Christianity. That’s the hard Gospel.

In this message, Pastor Jonnathan unpacks what it really means to follow Jesus when life gets hard—when persecution, rejection, backstabbing, sickness, loss, or trials hit. Your response will either reveal the love and power of Christ to a watching world… or deny Him.

You’ll discover:

- Why tribulation is inevitable for believers (John 16:33) and how God uses it to strengthen, prune, and perfect your faith

- The true meaning of “delight yourself in the Lord” (Psalm 37:4)—it’s not about getting whatever you want, but becoming soft, pliable clay in the Potter’s hands

- How to stop treating God like a genie and start petitioning for His will with a yielded heart

- Why free will is one of the greatest honors God gives His bride—and how real love chooses Him even when it’s costly

- Practical wisdom for studying Scripture in a Spirit-led way so revelation actually transforms your life

This is the Gospel that doesn’t just save you—it shapes you into the image of Jesus, one hard commandment at a time.

If you’re walking through something difficult right now, this word is for you. Be of good cheer—He has overcome the world.

$PART 2: Alters, Fractures, Parts, and Deliverance: Kingdom Builders Training PART 2: How to minister to alters, fractures, fragments, or parts and deliverances role in inner healing ministry. Any minister or counselor who regularly facilitates deliverance or inner healing has knowingly or unknowingly encountered a persons alter (alter ego), fracture (soul fragment), or parts while attempting to lead the individual to their spiritual freedom through Jesus Christ. ARE ALTERS, FRACTURES, FRAGMENTS, AND PARTS IN THE BIBLE? Did you know that the word brokenhearted, which are found in Psalms 34:18, Psalms 147:3, Isaiah 61:1, and Luke 4:17-18, actually means injury by fracture, broken into pieces, or shattered? The word used for brokenhearted in these scriptures are the Hebrew words Šābur and Shâbar. Šābur means injury by fracture, whereas shâbar means to break into pieces or shattered. Emotional trauma creates wounds (alter egos and fractures) in our soul, but God designed a way to limit the damage of emotional trauma by allowing the soul to create what are known as fragments (fractures or alters). A fragment is a part of the soul that contains the memories and emotions of a persons traumatic event. It’s like a part of a persons personality frozen in time. Fragments prevent the wounded parts of the soul (the alter(s) or fracture(s)) from becoming the dominant influence over the core of the soul. In effect, the fragmenting of the soul compartmentalizes the wounds and minimizes the damage that can be done to the rest of the soul. KEY DEFINITIONS: - Core: the main person typically identified by current age. - Alter or fracture/fragment: an injury to a persons soul through trauma. These can also be referred to as a persons parts. - Fracture/Fragment: a crack in a soul containing emotions and memories from a specific trauma. - Alter: a complete break, which has created a personality, a protector, who holds a persons emotions and memories from a specific trauma. - Imagine a bone. A fracture is a crack in the bone, whereas an alter is a complete break. - Merging/Integration: mending one or more of a persons parts into the core person. - Both parts are triggered to arise when a person faces a potential trauma similar to the one that initially created the part. - The parts are protective/defensive mechanisms created by God, allowing a person, saved or unsaved, to function normally in life before merging or integration happens.
