Cruel world of partiality

It has been known that in this world that we live in; lies a barrier that divides two different forms of bodies, personas, or beings; which are well known as the rich and the poor; the notoriety and the incognito; the high society and the beggars. As we know, the rich has always looked down on the poor, and this includes those of notoriety persona and those that are considered of the high society persona; and oppression is their genre, and this includes humiliating, dehumanizing those who are on the other side of the barrier line, and its not farfetched to say that they do get away with murder; as a matter of speech. All I  know, is that this has been around for many years, decades, centuries; perhaps its been there as long as history can tell; in any case it exists even up to this day in age.
In fact, this type of partiality occurs within the laws of the world itself; if the money is good, and greed is in your blood why not take the down fall of money under the table. I’m not going to deny this because its true to the fact: there is corruption anywhere, everywhere; a bribe can go as far as its allowed. A very strong example of how this should be entreated by those who are appointed Judges and law makers was written by Moses; as God explained; what he had to told the Israelites pertaining to chiefs, captains, officers, and most importantly the Judges who would  have rule over the people (Deut.1:16-17) And I charged your judges at that time saying, Hear the causes between your brothers, and judge righteously between every man and his brother, and the stranger that is with him. Ye shall not respect persons [be partial] in judgment, but ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God’s: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring it unto me, and I will hear it.
As we have just read, it clearly states that partiality will not be tolerated to no degree; its cruel and its in justice. I ask what does make another man better than the next? Absolutely nothing! If our Heavenly Father does not show it; just who do we think we are to oppress any other? We are no one in the eyes of God; in fact, He has no respect of persons [impartial]; He has never been partial towards no one, and this even goes for everyone who backslides, and it also went within their backsliding [of the Israelites] (2Sam14:14)For we must needs die, and are as water split on the ground, which can not be gathered up again: neither does God respect any person: yet He device means, that his banished be not expelled from him.
If it be needed for us to understand what it is meant that God does not respect persons: this would be the easiest form of a clear definition [we are all equal in the eyes of God as down right sinners]; of course remembering what we have been taught and have read in the book of Romans. When Paul is explaining to the people that no one is better that anyone at all, and all have come short of the glory of God (Ro.3:10)As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one.
In any case, we are therefore taught not to be partial in any shape, fashion, or form: that is those who belong to the Lord; because it truly has the clear understanding that anyone doing so is guilty of being judgmental. So, the question can arise who is anyone to judge another when one is found being the same?  
In respect we find another passage that in tells the similar commandment, and strictly being applied to the true worshippers of God; (Jam.2:1-5)My brothers, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons [do not be partial]. For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment; and ye have respect to him that wears the gay clothing, and  say unto him, sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool: are ye not then partial [divided] in yourselves [in your own mind], and are become judges of [with] evil thoughts? Hearken, my beloved brothers, has not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to them that love Him?
Clearly a strong admonition for those who do belong to Him; to heed, and obey, and to live by. Now as for the poor of this world; we all know as to why God chose them over the rich. For one they are of low estate, simple minded, and meek, and humble. Apart and besides this: there are some passages that do speak concerning the rich; for instance the parable of the sower and the seed (Matt.13:22)He also that received seed among the thorns is he that hears the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and becomes unfruitful. Another passage is about the rich young ruler who had a hard time giving up all of his riches and give to the poor (Matt.19:23-24)Verily I say unto you, that a rich man shall hardly [It is hard for a rich man to] enter into the kingdom of heaven. And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
Its quite simple to see that God does not, and will not accept anyone who assumes or thinks that they are above or better than the next person; because of their corrupted mentality and flagrant gestures which they personify against the next person. Whom they assume is to be looked upon as nothing in their own divided cruel world of partiality and judgmental heart.
We as children of God are taught otherwise; that no matter who the next person is whether rich, poor, ignorant, wretched, or who and what ever they are: they too should have the same opportunity that we had from the very beginning! So, What would be the best answer to this notion; if we are to be sought as a wise man? The answer should be for all to heed and obey Gods true words of virtue. (Pr.24:23)These things also belong to the wise. It is not good to have respect of persons [become partial] in judgment. Just as this was also spoken by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as he was teaching in the temple concerning divers opinions (Jo.7:24)Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. Moses also explains the same commandment to the people of that time pertaining to the Laws given by God (Lev.19:15)Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shall not respect [be partial] the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shall thy judge thy neighbor.
In the King James version all of the text pertaining to being partial is read as having no respect of the person, and the new King James version in tell us not to be partial. This is why we need to study the word of God so that we don’t get confused with the wording being used; that way we don’t misinterpret the message and get the wrong understanding.
To have a better understanding, of the respect of man represents; we can read when the Pharisees sent unto Jesus some of their disciples along with some Herodians; as they constantly kept trying to temp our Lord with their misguided questions. (Matt.22:16-17)And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou are true, and teaches the way of God in truth, neither cares thou for any man: for thou regards not the person of man. This can easily be misunderstood of what they were saying or trying to point out; but we know that our Lord does in fact care for all man: only he is impartial with regards of the persona of man.
The bottom line is that the way Jesus was and is; is the same way our Heavenly Father is, but above all not being with any partiality whatsoever: as Jesus was and is, He is our merciful God, a God full of Love, the all mighty God, the one who accepts no rewards, or gifts from no one   (Deut.10:17)For the Lord is a God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regards not persons, nor takes rewards.
So, we therefore are commanded to be as he is; a justifiable judge in showing no respect of man, or rather showing no one any partiality. (Deut.16:19)Thou shall not wrest judgment; thou shall not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift does blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the word of the righteous.
Although, He is a great and wonderful God; He can also be very devastating to all who are disobedient to His very will, and does not care who you are: we must therefore acknowledge that he is very impartial  with the humans of this world. No matter who they are; if you are not in subjection to His will He will not have any dealing with you, or any other person for that matter; because of their disobedience, and decide to live by their own willful life: which is a life of ruin; a desolate, and deprived life.
The poor of this world many times retaliate against the rich for their injustice; in which I truly understand their resentment of being taken advantage of their misfortune. Only I don’t and will not condone with any of their tactics of retaliation of mass destruction; because in all reality those who implore such behavior are just as guilty of becoming partial as the rich if not worse. We all know just how our minds work; when we are being humiliated, ridiculed, or made a mockery of: bitterness and anger arise. I truly believe that when Jesus spoke of the defilement  of man can only come from within serves this purpose. (Matt.15:11)Not that which goes into the mouth defiles a man, but that which comes out of the mouth, defiles a man.
So, in continuance, as the Jews were commanded we are as well: that no matter what the occasion, the scenario, or the problem we are not to oppress anyone at all. (Zech.7:9-10)Thus speaks the Lord of hosts, saying, execute true judgment, and show mercy and compassion every man to his brother: and oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in his heart.
Unfortunately, as they refused to heed and obey; people of these days do the same: just as it was then it’s the same today; there is a superiority and inferiority complex with the humans of this disgusting world. Along with prejudices and bias complex to distort everything even more so, and yet this is all ignored with no care, because one assumes they are better than the next.
Most people can not and will not accept fault or the blame; because they don’t want to admit anything. This is very hurtful to their ears and refuse to listen to the truth. (Zech.7:11-12)But they refused to hear, and pulled away the shoulder, and stop their ears, that they should not hear. Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the Lord of hosts has sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came great wrath from the Lord of host.
I say to all who reads this: that we all need to be very careful, and to know how act upon the rest of the world; not as they, but as Jesus did when he walk on this miserable world. I know and you know; or better yet everyone knows that one can easily be provoked to become partial in some respect. This my friend shouldn’t be at all; we must learn to refrain ourselves and to live as God has commanded us to live. We must therefore embark a completely different persona that is based in the teachings that can only come from Gods word.                              

Do you think you are on track

I find myself with great disgust every time I hear someone discussing issues of this world: for example global warming; when in fact: all this is the destructions that man has done over the years, and yet they all complain about keeping this world safe. Yet, their complaints is only known with the wisdom of this world, and they often times contradict themselves; and that to me; should not, and does not have any bearing whatsoever in a true Christians life.
  Well, that is why I truly believe that we should ask ourselves quite often, are we doing what is right, or are we in the right track;  personally I say that we should do this 24-7-365 till the end of time, or when our lord comes with all his glory. Maybe the very thought has cross our minds, are we truly doing everything possible to change anything and everything that is evil, and vile; that still lingers in our flesh? One thing that has even crossed my mind is the complex idea of: who is truly a chosen one, or that who really does belong to God, or is any saved for that matter; knowing just how wretched we are living life in this world. However, in the turning of a new leaf; we then begin to ponder on the question of: "What I am going to do; to make things right, and solidify my relationship with my Heavenly Father?"
Well, according to the gospel of God [and I truly believe in everything that is written]; is that we should be conscientious about everything that surrounds us. I am speaking of the providence of God, and this should be the mentality that we should carry with us always, and by the way, in its true essence, its called our guilty conscience! Which in fact does help us, and enable us to be on the right track, and to have a spiritual frame of mind.
For instance, in the Epistle of Paul to the Colossians in chapter 2 and 3 speaks on this very issue, and there is no sense in lying to ourselves, because the facts are there, as the word of God will begin transform us in our speech, behavior, and way of thinking: within the presences of the omnipresent God, and before the judging eye of man, and again everything that is written in the scriptures are all true; which means that the word of God does not lie as do the inhabitants of this world. So, what we have to really consider, and not overlook, and as well believe with all our hearts is that everything that is laid before us; that is, everything of this world is in fact some form of the idolatry of covetousness: I call it the covetous world of wanting.
In (Col.2:20-23;3:1-5) we read what it unfolds, and is the very issue at hand, and in reading these passages we really need to show with extreme consideration just how strong is our faith and  fidelity is to our Father; because we don‘t want the wrath of God on us; as this is mentioned in the next verse (Col3:6) For which things‘ sake the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.
  Always remembering, and being constantly aware of our own secret behavior; because the actual facts are: the one who knows this is oneself, and our [Omnipresent] Heavenly Father, as well as satan himself.  Our Lord Jesus Christ made mention of this during his ministry in the concept that nothing is hidden from God; and we can read of this in four passages in three gospels. (Matt.10:26;Mk.4:22;Lk.8:17;12:2) One thing to truly realize is that admittance is always welcomed in the eyes of God: meaning we need to admit anything and everything not only to ourselves ,but more importantly to God. I believe that this is the signification of clearing one's guilty conscience, and that way we know for sure that we made the right decision, or find ourselves at a better position of really considering the fact that we are on the right track. Its the act of repentance for God's forgiveness.
Lets recall what Paul told the Romans in (Ro.3:10) As it is written, there is none righteous, no, not one: this is one of the main reason as to why we need to admit where we came from; living a life of corruption, and of lies. Exactly, what are we going to do about it, and where we are heading in our errors; what are we doing about these affairs? So, for those who have been introduced to God’s salvation, they need to commit to it without hypocrisy. For, us, them, those who are already in, obey in all truthfulness, and righteousness.
So, in reference to what we know thus far; we read the passage that is found in (Ps.14:1-3;53:1-3), and begin to understand that we are all guilty of sinning against God, and shows and gives strong implication that we are all sinners by inheritance of sin in our flesh. In which, we all know that this began with Adam, and Eve's transgression, and only disobedient sin. Assuming that we all understand, and have the acknowledgement that we are born to sin without a doubt. So, lets put a stop to our own ignorance and foolishness that can and will lead us to our own damnation.
In our worship and glorifying God lets remain always thankful, obedient, and faithful that he chosen us as His dear children; H e put someone in our path, or has brought us to a spiritual awakening. To say it again, and I do repeat myself again; admittance is where it all begins, from the beginning of newness of life to the end of time, and to have the courage and boldness to admit, and confess all of our sins openly to our Heavenly Father, and beg for His forgiveness with all humility. This is the area, or place where true Christians are separated from the hypocrite, the admittance that leads, and breaks us of our guilt and remorse, and binds us to the glorifying word of redemption; that we have received through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
This frame of mind is the only way that will put us closer to God with a remorseful heart [a penitent heart if you will]: giving a true confession, and being truthfully repentant of our errors to receive God's forgiveness. So, not to say the least, lets not forget where we fell from, and repent before its to late, our Lord Jesus Christ made mention of this to the seven Churches in the book of Revelation (Rev.2:5,16,22;3:3,19).
Fact, if we do not abide and repent, we will become weak and vulnerable, awaiting our destruction not only in our falling away, but worse at judgment day; because we know who is on the prowl (1Pet.5:8)Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walks about, seeking whom he may devour.
The perception of God's word is for us not to give in to anything other that what belongs to him, we must not be deceived, fail, fall, falter, or backslide at any time during our Christian life(1Tim.4:1,2). The unity affect of these passages, and in connection is in the gospel of John when our Lord teaches all concerning the guidance of the Holy Spirit of God (John16:13): yet, we these days have this wonderful wisdom of God within our grasp. The opposing factor to this passage is when Peter talks about the falsehood and deceivers that exist in this world throughout all the ages(2Pe.2:1-3), and as well as Paul spoke of this very issue to the Romans (Ro.16:17-18)Now I beseech you, brothers, mark them which cause division and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. For they are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speech deceive [beguile] the hearts of the simple [innocent].
So, in all assurance, and acceptance of who we are; to me it appears that we need to, out of necessity, look at ourselves in the mirror and question our faith, stability, fidelity, and love for our Father (1Cor.13:12; 2Cor.3:18;5:7). I truly believe we need to do this as often as possible, so that we may know exactly where we standing in the eyes of God. In assuming that everyone is aware of the divine, and true salvation that God has bestowed upon us, through His mercy, and sacrifice of Jesus Christ, its quite apparent what is everything that needs to be done. On the other hand it does not give us the right to get all puffed up and prideful for any reason, thou we are saved; yet, we must never that sin still lingers in our flesh (Ro.3:22-25).
In knowing this lets not make any provisions of any human nature; as we know it that its to easy to slip and fall(Ro.7:14-21), so lets put into practice; what is written in (Ro.7:22)For I delight in the law of God after the inward man. When we commit ourselves to the Lord we should prepare ourselves and remain prepared with all obedience. In the true essence of being on the right track can be formulated on each one of us, pending on each individuals conviction(2Co.10:3-7).
Basically, if we come close to fulfilling everything that God has put before us, we too can grow to the stature of Christ: which is the only standard of God. Plus we must never ever be selfish to the point of withholding what God has already made known to us concerning our salvation; because being on the right track; is taking a part of spreading the good news to all that wants to know the truth. In reference to the scriptures Paul wrote to the Ephesians about this very issue(Ep.4:12-15), so lets give all our diligence to the word of God and not be slackers or procrastinators (2Tim.2:15)Study [give diligence] to show [present] thyself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing [handling aright] the word of truth.
Its not hard to do what the good Lord has commanded us to do, but only if your conviction, devotion, commitment is truly in your heart, and having the eagerness to do the will of God in His presence as well as man. I personally do implore the word admittance should be a big part of the every day Christians life style, I my self declare its a big part of my persona, pattern, and usage as I grow daily in the word of God, and My Christian life; because the beauty is knowing; that you belong to Him, doubtless.
As I had said that admittance should be a big part of our Christian lives; I also give only 4 reason as to why?
1)Admittance-is where salvation begins.
2)Admittance-is knowing your salvation remains.
3)Admittance-is obedience to please God.
4)Admittance-is knowing, if faithful, you will receive the crown of life.

When regarding to the word admittance; it is used in various ways, and to get a better understanding, or the meaning of the word: it gives a definition of the right or permission to enter. Now if we break it down into syllables the first syllable is admit, and the meaning to this word has three meanings--1. to allow to enter 2. to accept as true or just 3. to confess-- What I'm trying to spell out is that we need to stop deceiving ourselves thinking that all is good if I only follow what I want to follow; better known as a self willed life. This to me is a hypocritical error that perhaps 9 out of 10 persons have, and still tend to have. So, truthfully, honestly, and with courage ask yourself a simple question "am I right with God within the life that I am living?". Besides, its a commandment that we need to acknowledge, act upon, and live by (2Co.13:5)Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?.
Its a matter of doing the right thing or not; knowing what is right from wrong. This is where everyone stands between the fine line of entering the kingdom of God, or living the lifeless life of this world: whether living in accordance of the will of God, or our own self will. This passage definitely says what we must do in order to find ourselves right with God, but of course; Please, lets not disregard, or forget the rest of God's will.
After all, we should know just how easy it is to be a hypocrite, a fake, a liar, and a double minded person [a reprobate- somebody damned] (2Co.13:6-9).   One other quote; if there is something of this lesson that for some is not agreeing with: consider what John wrote in connection to what Jesus spoke about the condemnation of unbelief (John3:19-21). What we need to realize is that the confidence that we have in ourselves is no good, but rather having our confidence with God, because we as well as God knows just how wretched we truly are, and we need his help always no matter what; it literally becomes impossible for us to deal with everything, or to bear it all without God’s help (Matt19:26)with men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. This is one of the many reasons why we must always give God all the glory, honor, and praises forever and ever.
Lets be sensible over what is true, and what isn’t. As it is known that the wisdom of this world means nothing to God, because the wisdom of this world is stupid and is an obstacle to the wisdom of God: besides it has become the failure of man, and this world, who thinks that knowledge originated within man and not from God.
Assuming that you are in the right track, do not think that it ends there seeing that we are still sinners (1John1:8-10). Our convictions should be the way God intended it to be, we need to examine ourselves, and look at both the inner man, and the outward man, and seeing exactly where we are at, and make the necessary changes through the guidance of His holy word, and Holy Spirit in order to accomplish what God has in store for us. If we are going to please anyone, lets set our minds in please God and God alone!

The truth of all truth that does in fact sets us free!

    Is there such difference in one truth? As all the religions of this world have constructed in their own mind, and their self willed beliefs? No there isn’t, and God forbid! For being so. There has always been only one truth of all truth that does in fact sets anyone free from the ruins of this world and the slavery of sin. I truly believe that this began in the deliverance of our Savior from Heaven to earth to his death, his resurrection, his ascension, and God’s glorification of Jesus Christ. 
    We will soon learn that with in the word of God there can only be one truthful truth that is in the liberty of God’s law (Jam.1:25)but whoso looks into the perfect law of liberty, and continues therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deeds.     In simple terms we need to see the word of God as the complete truth within itself, and that there is none other like it. We will also acknowledge that the truth of all truth was made mention as prophesies by many holy men of God in the old covenant; but more importantly by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ: who is in fact the prophesied word of God; that powerful Spirit that guided the Apostles and disciples of yesteryear as well as those who are true to God in these days.
    We will also perceive, and acknowledge  everything that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ ministered was in fact an instruction of commandments that came from God and from God alone: as  this also includes the Holy Spirit who was instructed and commanded by God alone as well (Jo16:13-16)Howbeit when he, the spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth [the truth]: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come. He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you. All that the Father has are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall show it unto you. A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while , and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.
    First, as I said earlier, lets see what Jesus said on this topic of knowledge in its true essence; as he with boldness tells everyone then, and as well as we today that everything that he spoke was in fact coming from God, and God alone (Jo.12:49-50)For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that His commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.
    Our Lord also asks the question on the basis of their unbelief ; because he always saw right through them, and always knew what they were thinking or mumbling, and just how faithless they were(Jo.14:10)Believes thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwells in me, He does the works.
    In the passages that we just read its quite obvious that the sincere, and absolute truth; of what our Lord spoke of was indeed the truth that can only come from God: fact; in accordance to the old testament the Prophet Moses prophesied exactly the same thing of what our Lord spoke of to the letter (Deut.18:18)I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brothers, like unto thee, and I will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.     Well, the truth is that everything the we have read, do read, and will continue to read in the word of God is the truth of all truth; because God is true. There is no lie in Him, and there is no false in Him as is the inhabitants of this world. Our Lord Jesus Christ clarified this in his rebukes of the scribes, Pharisees, and Jewish rulers (Jo.8:38-44).
    The truth of all truth that does in fact sets us free is what Jesus Christ explained to his Apostles and disciples: that everything that is in his word [which comes from God] will set us free from the slavery sin, and become his disciples as servants of righteousness (Jo.8:31-32)Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.
    One thing as to knowing the truth we must only believe that there is only one God [our Father in Heaven], and that Jesus Christ [His Son] is our only Savior and Lord, but lets not be ignorant of this idea: that just as many religions; also do the same, and they assume; thats all it takes to be saved is just to believe in him. Well, guess what, so do the demons of this world and they tremble (Ja.2:19)Thou believes that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. Here are more examples on just how much fear runs through them; by the presence, or the mention of his Holy name in and by the Holy Spirit (Matt.8:29)and behold, they cried out, saying, what have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? Art thou come hither to torment us before the time. (Lk.4:33-34)and in the synagogue there was a man, which had a spirit of an unclean devil, and cried out with a loud voice, saying, let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? Art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Holy One of God.
    The truth of all truth is accepting what is true in all aspects of the word of God; meaning what is relevant to the prophesies of older prophets and the prophesies that our Lord spoke of, and all that he accomplished without regard to himself. Also, to know what is not relevant to the word of God: that we should not to believe in what man is teaching, but rather than believing what God has been teaching over the years, decades, and centuries: which to me is no relevance between the both, and is more than clearly seen by the measure of disrupted, and corrupted information that is out in the world these days: a devastation of division.
    The truth of the matter is that anything and everything that is written in the word of God as it reflects to us as a guiding light, and is the light of man; and in all acceptance; can only come from God, because of its living power to turn anyone from being an evil person [a sinner if you will] to a righteous man! (He.4:12)For the word of God is quick, and powerful [living and active], and sharper that any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Of course, all this is done with God’s approval; by either through a man of God’s choice, and with the assistance of the Holy Spirit. With our Lord Jesus Christ being our advocate, mediator, propitiation to God Himself; and as I have said before acknowledging that Jesus Christ is the word of God: so, everything pertains to him, or rather “in the name of Jesus Christ“.
    In the teaching, or ministry of our Lord there was the practice of a specified proclamation after His resurrection in (Matt.28:18-20). This is what this religious world calls the great commission of Christ; instigated, and proposed by, and along with the disastrous teaching of the catholic church. Its blasphemy in the eyes of God if you ask me; because I know for a fact that the so call great commission is not anywhere written or mentioned in the word of God. Call it symbolic if you wish, but not on my time; because its still blasphemy!
    So, whose truth are we going to believe man’s or God’s: I would think that it would be prudent for us to know that we need to accept the only truth that comes from the word of God, and in the name of Jesus Christ, and only in the name of Jesus Christ……….
    Now going back to the passage that we just read lets not be ignorant, and lets not conspire anything to what is written in that passage as are, and do the vast religions of this world: who hold a stronghold on verses 18-19, and are quick to disregard what is written in verse 20 in which it says “Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the world“. If what we read in the new covenant [new testament] transcribes everything [that is to expand what is written] of what we just read: why then is what is written in the book of Acts disregarded or ignored for that matter? Is he not the Spirit of Truth that came down with power  that he spoke of to his Apostles and his disciples? Yes it is! As he said it so plainly, “lo, I am with you always”, must not be ignored at all. Lets consider what is at hand according to all the religions or rather most religions of the world who claim that what Jesus said in Matthew verse 19 was and is the only method that all need to be baptized: I ask why then is it not recorded in the book of Acts of this method in the same wordings.
    For example: instead of (Acts2:38; 8
:16;10:48;19:5) would have been read in this pattern; that all need to be baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, but instead its read very differently. I say that this is the dividing difference of the actual truth: Everything is done “In the name of Jesus Christ” including baptism, and in denying this can only mean that we are believing what man is teaching and not what the word of God is teaching.
     So, and again, the truth of all truth that does in fact sets us free; is what the Spirit of Truth through the Apostle Peter spoke is plainly the only truth! (Acts2:38)Then Peter said unto them, repent, and be baptized everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remissions of sin, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. There is no doubt in my mind, body, heart, spirit, and soul that whatever God has decided to change within the confines of His glorious word it is his prerogative to do so through His divinity, power, authority, and good pleasure!
    If anything, the practice that the first century Christians used in the form of baptism was completely different from Matthew to the book of Acts and so on, and it is found in several passages in the book of Acts (2:38;8:16;10:48;19:4-5); and besides from this: there is no other name that anything can be done, but by the name of Jesus Christ(Acts4:12;10:43);the Apostle Paul with the assistance of the Spirit of Truth exalted the name of our Lord(Ro.6:3;13:14;Ga.3:27;Col.3:10). This was even prophesied by the Prophet Malachi (Mal.1:11)For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be [is] offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, said the Lord of Hosts.
    In fact, and to say the least, a division was already beginning within the Church of God [Christ]: as it was the creation of sedition which erupted in the first century Christians of Corinth, and the Apostle Paul was rebuking the Church in Corinth over this matter; simply because they forgot under whose name was everything done, and that’s including their baptism (1Co.1:10-13). In verse 13 is to me a very bold, and direct way of Paul speaking, and telling the truth of the matter; of the complete issue of under whose name are you baptized; basically, I mean, I hope, and pray for your sake that its in the name of Jesus Christ: as it was done then it is to be done exactly the same today!
    We can not deny this, because as I have said it before this is Jesus who is teaching this to all; and as he had always made mention that if we deny him and his word he will deny us before God in Heaven: notably noting that he is sitting at the right hand of God right now proclaiming his own to our Heavenly Father.
    Now, if we can go back a bit to when Jesus was talking to Nicodemus:  perhaps wanting to know what all needs to be done; seeing how they new that he was from God (Jo.3:2). Jesus answered Nicodemus by explaining the necessity of regeneration is needed; and said that man needs to be born again in order to see the kingdom of God; and yet, man needs to be born of water and of the Spirit in order to enter the kingdom of God (Jo.3:3,5). Basically giving the first principles of baptism is needed for salvation, the understanding and acceptance of forgiveness, and to receive the Holy Spirit of God through, with, and in the name of Jesus Christ (Acts2:38).
    The Apostle Paul with the interceding instruction of the Holy Spirit also tells Titus just how this was done, and with the enlighten truth: that there was a regeneration and a renewing of the Holy Ghost which He [God] shed abundantly on us through our Savior Jesus Christ (Tit.3:5). So, just who is right in this world I ask? man with their manmade religion, or God with His true words and bona fide religion: that is Jesus Christ? Well, as it was for the early brotherhood; it appears that it should still be the same in this time of age. In this topic of preaching they were always being warned of preaching in the name of Jesus Christ (Acts4:13-19), because the world did not want to accept the truth; I myself have been there and seen it first hand: that I was not allowed to preach baptism in the name of Jesus Christ within the Church of Christ: simply because it goes against their own private interpretation of what they were taught by the so called religious men in their life time.
    If its hard to comprehend and understand that Jesus Christ is the word of God; you need to revaluate your knowledge: and if this is so, lets look back again to the scripture [passage, text] that does signify its truth (Jo.1:1-5)In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.  In him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in darkness; and the darkness comprehended [apprehended] it not.
    Is this not telling us that everything that God has made was with, for, and by Jesus Christ, and this includes the very word that we are reading. We can also read of this notable truth in the book of Revelations as it pertains to the marriage of the Lamb, and that Jesus Christ is described as the word of God(Rev.19:11-16).
     Who has or would even dare to have the audacity to say other wise, and contradict the very word of God? Who are we to question what God has already decided upon? All who is against the name of Jesus being the only name that we have to do everything; is all who is apart of this world, and the religions of man; and they all being sinfully evil will not inherit the kingdom of God I say this because they are still living in sin: this is even more expressly told to the ones who assume they are in the right; either by being deceived or deceiving themselves by sheer ignorance. Yet the Apostle Paul with the instruction of the Holy Spirit told them [the first century Christians] that they were washed, sanctified, and justified in the name of Jesus Christ (1Co.6:9-12): washed that is being baptized in the name of Jesus Christ; sanctified in, through, and by the blood of, in Jesus Christ; justified from sin in the name of Jesus Christ.
    Is this so hard to accept the real truth of all truth? which in reality being that everything that written in the word of God, and all that is done, is done in the name of Jesus Christ. which includes the Church possessing his name, our prayers ending in his name, the taking of the Lord Supper in his name, baptism in the name of Jesus Christ without a doubt! Another thing that needs to be seen and not overlooked is what our Lord said in the Book of (Matt7:21-23)Not everyone that says unto me Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of Heaven; but he that does the will of my Father which is in Heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? And in thy name done many wonderful works? And then I will profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that do iniquity. (Lk.6:46)And why call ye me Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? (Ja.1:22)but be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving own yourselves.
    If the Spirit of truth came with power to change everything that was denied in the time of our Lords ministry; why on earth is it still being denied? Why do people who assume that they know the word of God still fears man about revealing the truth; the absolute truth.
    If any one does in fact study the word of God without being blind, or blinded by what was said by man, or how they were taught through the beliefs of man: that person can and will find the truth of all truth that does in fact sets us free. What is the truth? That believe in the name of Jesus Christ; and I, we, you, they, all will do, what all, that needs to be done faithfully, truthfully, and undoubtedly.
   

Self examination

In the commencement of our new life; that is a spiritual life that we have just entered there is a method that we all need to really consider, and act upon it’s a self examination method that can be related to such words as survey, prove, search, scrutinize, and pursue. In this topic we will begin to acknowledge everything that is involved with self examination. So, that we can always be aware of where we need to be in the presence of our Heavenly Father; in the purity of our transformation that occurred in our true baptism.
One of the main reason of this self examination would be; and is because the state that we were once named as [prior to our baptism] a lost sinner. Although we still have the inheritance of sin within our flesh. One thing that we need to reckon with is the idea that its not just there in our flesh, but within us entirely: for example, within our heart; there is, and it is full of deceit, and it can be very malicious.
This is where it all pretty much begins; and I truly believe this is the reason why our Lord Jesus explains too his disciples the idea of what defiles a man: its not the object of what goes in, but what is everything that comes out (Matt.15:11)Not that which goes into a man defiles a man, but that which comes out of a man defiles a man.
The reason being for this explanation is that everything that does in fact come out does come from the heart; because as it is known that the heart is the eyes of understanding, knowledge, and perhaps our soul “(Eph.1:18)The eyes of your understanding [heart] being enlightened”. Therefore, they as well as we can understand just how evil our heart really is without a doubt. One thing for sure our deceitful heart can not deceive God, but does in fact deceive us to the core time and time again(Je.17:9)The heart is very deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked [exceedingly corrupt]: who can know it?
This is one of the main reason as to why we need to self examine ourselves, and really consider the necessity of governing our natural state [our sinful inheritance] by the acceptance of God‘s call to salvation through Jesus Christ (Matt.13:15)For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and their ears dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
This was stated by our Lord and Savior; because we as humans have long been without God, and therefore our vile heart has become dark (Ro.1:21)Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as a God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their own imagination [reasoning] and their foolish heart was darkened.
Now, when we begin to realize this with in ourselves, and can admit just how wrong we are, were, and will be: we will then begin to feel sadden, and become remorsefully guilty to the point of a true conviction. This can only be done with the assistance of God, and through His acceptance; in which He is the one who does know the hearts of all (Je.17:10)I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give to every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
Another thing that we as children of God must know is that we need to always put ourselves to the test, and search our deep thought and correct our secret follies. Just as King David of Israel always did (Ps.77:6)I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search. (Ps.4:4)Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. (Ps.119:11)Thy word have I hid [laid up] in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. Just as the prophet Jeremiah put it in very simple terms for all to understand (Lam.3:40)Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the Lord.
As I have always believed, and will always accept; that all who assume they have become a child of God: need to think again! Without the acceptance of God and His grace what is there to examine? Everything that is done has to be done in accordance with what God has in store for those who seek him truthfully; simply because it’s the first thing that He looks at [our heart], (Ps.139:23-24)Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my heart: and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. Besides, and above all we need to praise God for His entire providence that is upon us (Ps.139:1-16).
The most important of self examination that we do unto ourselves [I only mean those who truly do belong too Him; young and old alike] is what is written by Paul over the concerns of the Lord Supper [foremost of all importance] (1Co.11:28)But let every man examine [prove] himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. That way we know that we do not desecrate our Holiest of Holy, as this represents the body and precious blood of our Lord and Savior (1Co.11:29). Paul again setting the course of rebuking those with severe threats; this being too all who are obstinate sinners alike. (2Co.13:5)Examine yourselves, whether you be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobate?
We need to mandate [put in subjection 1Co.9:27; Ro.8:13] too know how we can discern and prove our selves worthy by submitting to all of God’s commandments of His glorious will (Ga.6:3-4)For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.
For us to discern what is righteous, and what is evil is what we are taught throughout the word of God; besides before this we, no one, had a clue: that all were ignorantly clueless (Mal.3:18)Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serves God and him that serves him not. (Heb5:14)but strong meat [solid food] belongs to them that are of full [is full grown men], even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
To prove, not only too ourselves, but to God; to show just how strong our fidelity, our faith, and being in the right means: always seeking what is that good wisdom that can only come from God. Always abounding in the word of God as it sets the tenure for our growth in His wisdom. As it give us the confidence, the hope, the reason as too why? Edification, notification, that can only lead to self examination (Eccl.7). Therefore, we Realize what is all that we need to prove; without slacking, holding back, and never assuming what is and what’s not? Why? Because everything before God is what is real, or better yet proven that everything of God is all good (1Thess.5:21-22)Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearance [every form] of evil.
This is perhaps even more so to those who God has given the privilege to teach, preach His glorious gospel, and to watch over and feed the flock; as this was stipulated by prophet Ezekiel and our Lord Jesus Christ (Ezekiel44:23)And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and profane [common], and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean. (Jo.21:15-17)This was Christ’s charge to Peter. Also, the Apostle Paul gave the same similarities concerning the issue at hand (Acts20:28)Take heed unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost has made you overseers, feed the church of God, which he has purchased with his own blood.
Upon our own finding of our own self examinations [I do mean plural and not singular] just how do we deal with such findings? Correct the corrections that need be corrected! This is what King David said concerning this issue (Ps.119:59)I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies.
The truth is that it sets the tone for all believers to turn back to Him through the agonizing guilt, the pains that we bear, and a remorseful heart; dreading upon committed sins: Just like Peter did when he denied our Lord three times (Mk.14:72)And when the second time the cock crew. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus said unto him, before the cock crow twice, thou shall deny me thrice. And when he thought thereon, he wept. Lets not forget the parable that Jesus gave on the prodigal son (Lu.15:11-32). These are basic finding that are written for us to find , to see, to read, and to know; yet, how often do we find our selves in the same boat: seeking resolution for our own sanity leaning towards the loss of our own salvation. As for finding what ever the idea, and how to deal with it all; is all in the glorious word of God: no questions unanswered!
The concept of self examination is not a hard thing to reckon with; seeing how this entire world is already very much aware with what it means to self examine oneself: for instance one can calculate just how much one can take in any physical exertion by limiting oneself, or push it to the limit, so on, and so forth. It also, goes with the idea mental toleration, or as they call it tolerance control. The list goes on and on; its just phrased with different words, worldly words, it all still has the same percepts upon percepts.
One of the most important factor to our security is that we will always be under Devine inspection; only if we pray to our Heavenly Father with confidence. We must always have the hope that God is our refuge as He is the one who guides us, instructs us, as well as chastises (Heb12:7) those who truly belong to Him (Ps.26). It is also written that the word of God is truly inspired by Him (2Tim.3:16-17)All scripture is given by inspiration [every scripture inspired] of God, and is profitable for doctrine [teaching], for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect [complete], thoroughly furnished unto all good works. Again, even within the scripture that is written [old and new testament] are a set hope, and solace for our spirit (Ro.15:4)For whatever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
By way of Devine inspection comes to us only through the Holy Spirit as it did to all those who were Holy men of God (2Pe.1:20-21)Knowing this first, that no prophesy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophesy came not in old time [no prophesy ever came] by the will of man: but Holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
The Devine inspection that is indeed happening to those who truthfully belong to God; is because of the truth and holiness that can only be seen in a spiritual point of view; yet I don’t mean in a literal way, because God is a Spirit, and we therefore must worship Him in spirit and in truth. Yet, in order for this to happen we therefore submit ourselves to His will, and His will alone.
We being redeemed by the blood of the lamb has its right to those who truly are committed to God: by allowing God; through prayer; and Devine intervention to search us, try us, and to know our exact thought and intents (Ps.139:23-24)Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: and see if there be ant wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
This is what it all sums up to be when we are committing to our self examination; always remembering who we are: children of God by the sacrifice of our advocate. In the holiest of intercession of God’s Holy Spirit; and most importantly the forgiveness of our Heavenly Father. Self examination is a sure way to a prosperous spiritual life that should be our aim in pleasing God, and not ourselves. We look at ourselves in the mirror and perhaps do not like the reflection that appears, so, we do what ever it takes to modify what we didn’t like to begin with. Is this not grooming ourselves; and therefore to truly love our own selves, and this is mortal examination. So, lets concentrate on spiritual examination to better our relationship with our Heavenly Father.

The lasciviousness of fornicating ungodly men

THE LASCICIOUSNESS OF FORNICATING UNGODLY MEN

In the twilight of our years it appears that man has now gone beyond that of the days of Sodom and Gomorrah; which in those days God destroyed those two cities; because of their lewd, lust, and sexual acts of disgust; and of their evil practices of not only moral, but spiritual disobedience.
Its even more apparent that these days are far more gross than that of those days to a certain existence; in a social science point of view, but in any case its all an abomination in the eyes of God. Well, to be more exact we have television, the internet, and certain location where people go to indulge, and satisfy the evil desires, and enjoy the participation thereof; as the secrecy of their lewd behavior has entered in a wide open phase of disgust. The contrast of this public lewdly behavior is the wrath of God on those who do such things as they do; (Ro.1:32)Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in [also consent with] them that do them.
Not only are people these days doing things publicly: they tend to applaud themselves in the gains that they have achieved throughout the centuries, but make an uproar for their malicious and mischievous behavior towards most peoples bias conduct: for example the freedom of the liberal ideas of homosexuality, allowing gay marriages, and allowing homosexuals within certain congregation to teach, and preach, etc…. all this is for their evil passions of desire; ignoring, and disregarding the will of God.
Which, to my knowledge is the self willed acts of this adulterating generation in their moral point of view; but even more so, in a spiritual point of view. In the spiritual sense, it’s the idea of committing adultery against God’s holy word; using the very word of God to blasphemy, distort, and put to shame the very word of God for the pleasures of man kind and the destruction of man kind.
Lets take a very good look at what would be the definitions of the two words that I am using in this lesson: first it would be lasciviousness: which means lewd and strange sexual acts. Secondly, we look at fornication: which means; sexual act of unmarried partners. Well, this is fine, in accordance to the knowledge, and dictionaries of this world; but when we look at the word of God these words have the same meaning, and belong to the same idea: for instance, lasciviousness, fornication, and adultery all have the same understanding in the eyes of God!
This bring us to acknowledgment of what is the two types of fornications, or lasciviousness, and adultery: which are moral, and spiritual fornication; the moral fornication is all of the above; meaning that anything that puts anyone into the slavery of sin. We as dear children of God are commanded to abstain from all fornication, and this is applicable to all the human inhabitants of this world; as it was then (Lev.18:19-24), its even more so now (1Thess.4:3-5)For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye abstain from fornication: that everyone of you should know how to posses his vessel in sanctification and honor: not in the lust of evil concupiscence (passions of lust). (1Thess5:22)Abstain from all appearance of evil. (1Pe.2:11)Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lust, which war against the soul.
I ask, what more evidence does this world need as it appears in plain letters on paper; or should I ask what Bible are they reading, and using: that they disregard the very passages we just read?
Yet, I give audience that we mustn’t be ignorant of the devils devises and how all are blinded by their own ambitions, perversions, and self willed attitudes. Also, they obviously have not read the passage that the Holy Spirit through Paul gave to the Corinthians; pertaining to this topic; (1Co.6:18)Flee fornication. Every sin that man does is without the body; but he that commits fornication sins against his own body. Clearly there is two ways one should understand this: the defilement of ones body, and the desecration of God’s temple, but we know that this can only go for those that truly belong to him. Its even more clear that they don’t even read the passage that the Holy Spirit through Paul said to the Ephesians concerning of who has the right, and who doesn’t have the right of inheritance to the kingdom of God; (Eph.5:5,7)For this you know, that no whoremonger [fornicator], nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
After reading these few passages, that is considerably all scriptural, and all true to the very word; how can anyone even begin to think that the will of God means nothing, as it does to those individuals of the world: we all know, and should know [the children of God], what is meant in the same book of Ephesians; on how, that it tells us all not to be unwise concerning the will of God, and we do know, “because we wouldn’t be where we are right now;” (Eph.5:17)Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
Now, Lets talk a little more on the issue of spiritual fornication, and this is not the bottom of the barrel, but the top of the barrel: this truly is the desecration of everything that our Heavenly Father stands for. Now, for those Churches who allow such disastrous acts of gay teachers or preachers: may the good Lord have mercy on them, but I myself curse them anathema maranatha! We, as well as they, are told very specifically and boldly how we need to act, and present ourselves before God seeing how that the Lords Church is His own, or rather the body of Christ; yet, and again this only applicable to those who truly belong to Him as true worshipers. (Eph5:27)That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
We therefore mortify our selves and our Church to be honorable, respectful, pure, and holy before God (Col.3:5-6)Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection [passion], evil concupiscence [desire], and covetousness, which is idolatry: for which things’ sake the wrath of God come on the children of disobedience.
So, the lasciviousness of fornicating ungodly men will certainly have their day on judgment day; because of their distorted, and gross disobedience, and their irrational excuses for not abiding to the will of God. Their salacious, and wanton attitudes is a sure way of leading them, or anyone to become absolute impure, unclean, and with a disgusting nature that has been a long time ignoring the very word of God.
Only to satisfy their own will; because in reality they have no control of their own flesh, their own mind, and even their own heart: yet we know why? I’ll say it with ease, and boldness: its because they still belong to this world, and are under the slavery of satan himself.
In speaking of the spiritual point of view there are many passages that in tell us about the many false teachers, smooth talkers that arose during the Apostles ministry in the turn of the century. This was perhaps the Gnostic era; this was a time that there was much danger to the Christians who fell by believing the Gnostic heresy’s. Now, Gnostic is formed from the Greek word for knowledge. Gnosticism claimed to give a particular knowledge of the unseen world. Greek philosophy merged into oriental mysticism; and in those early years there was great danger to which Christianity was exposed, by arousal form the Gnostic heresy by which Christian doctrine was corrupted.
Well, this was the beginning of all the false religion that would erupt and contradict the true religion of God: all these persons who committed themselves in this manner are all considered spiritual fornicators; the lasciviousness of fornicating ungodly men (Jude 4-13). Here are several of the passages that speak of these false teachers, false brothers, and heresy speakers (Ga.2:4)And that because of false brothers unawares brought in, who came in privately to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage. In an honest report that is exactly what has happened throughout the years; many religions have erupted and have veered themselves way off from the truth that is written in the word of God, and eventually become reprobates (Titus1:16)They profess that they know God; but in works they deny Him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
Most religions do claim that they are correct, but with use of falsified literature and the knowledge of this world they have failed themselves: this is why we must always study the word of God, so that, we may be very careful and never be deceived (Heb12:15)Looking diligently [carefully] lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root up bitterness spring up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled. (2Pe.2:1)But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable [destructive] heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
Time and time again; the first century Christians were fore-warned about the ungodly men whose practices were there just to distort, manipulate, and destroy the very word of God: we all know why this has happened and is happening these days; and its because satan does not want anyone to be saved. Since he was the first failure, and the first one to fall from the grace of God, he is so full of anger and bitterness; that he will do anything and everything to keep the world as it is; even what ever is possible to try and bring the true children of God down with him to eternal damnation.
Thanks be to our Heavenly Father for this all to happen the way it did: in which this truly is for the benefit of those who truly oblige themselves with strong faith, devotion, commitment, and unity to our Lord; that he may be pleased. As we grow in spirit and in faith we will and can over come this flesh that we live in, and subdue it to the point that everything pertaining to oneself will be pure, holy, and righteous before God.
Perhaps we then can consider our selves; at that time close enough to the full stature of Christ; (Eph4:13-14)Till we all come to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect [full-grown] man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ: That we henceforth be no more children tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive [after the wiles of error]. As we know already what the word of God in tells of yesteryear, these days, and what is to be the outcome of future days; because we do what ever it takes to study the word of God for our own benefit.
As it was written by the old prophet Isaiah: pertaining to the prophecy of what was to be and which now is in the controversy of good and evil (Isaiah28:8-10)For all the tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so there is no place clean. Whom shall He teach knowledge? And whom shall He make understand doctrine [the message]? Them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. For percepts must be upon percepts; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little. Clearly, this is for all to understand the question and have an answer to the most high God who is truly the Father of obedient children. What better way to have an answer to his question; is to do the will of Him whom He has chosen as His dear children. We know that it takes complete devotion, and in full compliance to what He has shown us through His glorious gospel, with the assistance of the Holy Spirit and the teaching of His Son our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
So, we above all can not make any excuses for our own faults. As it is know, and I quote “practice does make better”. Lets always remember that we must refrain ourselves from any form of fornication, and put our own body and self beings in complete subjection to God!

Barrowed time

When we take a good look at the word borrow, and what is the meaning; it can be seen and defined in various ways: for example borrowing something from someone, or borrowing money, and to borrow some form of literature from someone else etc….. Now, when we take a good look at the word time; we would immediately think of a clock, seasons, appointments, and historical periods, and so on etc….
Now, when we put the two words together it gives a completely different meaning in itself: for example a person who is diagnosed with an ailment and has no cure can be looked upon as a person living on borrowed time; figuratively speaking! Only I wish to set the tone and the concept in an area of thought: that the entire world does not really consider time to have any affect at all; because time is of no essence to them: time is just time.
This would be an area that some or few religious people can concur with; and I’m speaking in the spiritual sense of living life on borrowed time. One thing that we all need to be aware of, is that this entire world is living life on borrowed time without a doubt; because at any given moment, or better yet at any given time our Heavenly Father will put it upon Himself that time is up, and enough is enough. One great example would be when our Heavenly Father destroyed the first world in the time of Noah (Gen.6:5-7;7:17-19).
God being full of patience, and mercy gives the entire world opportune time to redeem themselves from their evil works; as everyone has fallen short of His grace. Yet to those who belong to Him must never forget this, and recognize where they came from. This is explained by the apostle Peter in his second letter to all Christians in general: he warns the godly, for the long patience of God, to hasten their repentance. Basically, it means that we should always be ready and if not we need to consider how to salvage our own salvation long before judgment day(2Pe.3:8-9)but beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. In reference to the passage that we just read we can go back to what King David wrote as a prophecy in the frailty, and the fragility of human life (Ps.90:4)For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
Its quite obvious, and very evident that time is not ours to begin with; specially with the two passages we just read telling us other wise: it clearly states that time [by His authority] belongs to God. How can we as humans measure up to time when we being trapped in this; running out of time; world as if nothing is going on. When in reality something is going on and not all know this, and if they do; they just don’t care.
In the passage of (2Pe.3:9)Peter tells all who is of interest; who God is, and what He is doing, and what He has done, and will remain doing till laps of time is no more. It’s the only way out for all to take and rely on; because we are living on borrowed time. This is time that we as humans can not afford to take advantage of; just as many rely on time, and old cliche's which come to mind: for instance “killing time”, “time is a wasting”, or “time is of no essences”, and “time is money“. Who are we to assume, or even consider that time is ours: lets refer to what our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ always claimed during his ministry and I quote “repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand”(Mk.1:15) this passage gives the inclination that time is near its end, and in the book of (Jo.7:6)in the second part of the verse; “your time is always ready”, and this passage gives the notion that the true worshipers of God must always be on their toes; and be without slackness and procrastination.
I truly believe that with scientist, evolutionist, and archaeologists; who theorize with their man made ideas are in complete contradiction to the word of God in full: they find ways to manipulate the mind of Humans and assure them that time has been around for millions of years, and that it will never end unless some cosmic proportion evolution may, or might occur; which to me is preposterous! In concurrence with the word of God this world has been around for about 6200 thru 6500 years; give and take a little. Well, enough with the knowledge of this world, and lets stick to the true knowledge of the world to come “ the word of God”!
Here is words of wisdom that comes from God in His word: this world needs, and should relate with this next passage; as it is a warning for all to reckon with for the salvation of oneself. (Is.30:1)Woe to the rebellious children, said the Lord, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my Spirit, that they may add sin to sin. For this counsel that we read is of the Lord, and with great emphasis is this: He is the owner of our borrowed time, yet, He awaits for all to come to His glory, His Kingdom, His righteousness, by and through His gracious mercy (Is.30:18)And therefore will the Lord wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will be exalted, that He may have mercy upon you: for the Lord is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for Him. (Ps.1:12)Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in Him. Here we have something to consider: that this next verse would be one of the blessing that one is given in listening to God’s counsel (Pr.16:20)He that handles a matter wisely [gives heed unto the word] shall find good: and whoso trusts in the Lord, happy is he.
How much more do we think we need to know about how much time we have; I for one think that the hope we have is enough, but on the other hand we need to know everything there is to know: despite all the mercies, patience, forbearance, and long suffering that our Heavenly Father has; we must never forget that time is his and not ours. Its a crucial thing that we must always abide to the word of God; because this is His counsel, His will, His commandments, and its our life for everlasting time, and its our hope that we find good pleasure in our Heavenly Father and not a terror that is against us in any point of our life here in this world.
This is explained by the prophet (Jeremiah17:7,17-18)Blessed is the man that trusts in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is. Be not a terror unto me: thou are my hope [refuge] in the day of evil. Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy the with double destruction.
This is obviously a rude awakening for the rest of the world as time is slipping by; and they not caring for it at all: again to them its just killing time on borrowed time. This to me, just doesn’t make any sense; for all we know time has already been shortened from 12 to 9 hours day and night, and only God knows this because time is His, and its written in His glorious gospel (Rev8:12;Is.13:10;Am.8:9). In other words he proposes too what ever seems fit, and to what ever He desires to do: so, at any given time He will do what ever He wishes to do. We need to always be aware of this, and be prepared and ready when time is up: as this was prophesied by the prophet (Habakkuk2:3)For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak [and it haste’s toward the end], and [shall] not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
In the essences of being ready; we must stand firm, unmovable, unshakable, and never ever be deceived by the falseness that lingers in this dark and perverted world; because many will fall , and have fallen, and will keep falling (2Pe3:17); and at the same time many shall have the opportunity to get purged from their sinful life and be rooted too flourish fruitfully: from then, to now, and to the end of time (Dan.11:35)And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.
One thing that we [true worshippers of God] must always have is the acknowledgment that we already know of; who our Heavenly Father is, and we need to hold on to it forever; because it’s the goodness of God that sets us straight for His pleasure. If we then know this, and ignore it while going about our self willed life: where do you suppose this will lead us? If one is true to God, and we have a remorseful heart, it will leads to repentance, and have pleasure in God (Ro.2:4-6)Or despises thou the riches of His goodness and forbearance and long suffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leads us to repentance? But after the hardness and impenitent heart treasures up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; who will render to every man according to his deeds.
We must take heed the warning that is set there for those who assume that they are saved; being found in a laid back customs that the vast majority of persons posses during their life here on earth. Why? Because the idea that time is on our side is a misconception that most people tend have a stronghold; they act as if life depended on it. The only thing that I will say about time; is that it does in fact benefit those who wish to make some major changes in their lives; this enables them an opportunity that God is willing to wait for that person.
Yet, I am very aware that the borrowed time that we are living will in fact come to an end not only for the entire world, but even more so for those who claim to be a child of God; as it is stipulated in the book of (Heb10:34-39). Above all, this is all done with God’s grace and His faith, His love, and tender mercy. If one is doubtful, a skeptic, or uncertain: think again and rationalize your decision; because in the eyes of God you, we, they, all are in error that we just can waste time on. The unfortunate thing is that with this world would be that they have grown accustom to the idea that time really does belong to them; and they have no care for what lies ahead in their future. Metaphorically speaking, this world can only evolve with what they have been taught throughout the centuries with the use of cliche's, figurative words, and symbolism; and guess what? They are all words that are made up by man to deprive man from the real truth concerning borrowed time, or time in general.
Lets look at the reality of life based on the word of God, and of course we will find ourselves in the midst of many passages that pertain to time itself: beginning with the notion that time is God’s way of showing the inhabitants of this world that we do not have very much of. We are given many examples that are in reference to the laps of time for various people of yesteryear for example in the time of Noah, Sodom and Gomorrah, the Egyptians in the time of Exodus, the Israelites who turned on God in the time of Exodus, the Philistines in the time of David, and many other Empires that fell by the hands of God, and of course there are many other examples for us to read about that can only solidify the idea that time is not ours but God’s.
The most important notion that we have pertaining to time would be God’s holy mercy, the allowance that He gives the entire world; is the opportunity to reconcile back to His grace with the deliverance of His Son for the benefit of all (Ga.4:4-5)But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. What more is there to say about our borrowed time; with the inclination that we do in fact have ample time to salvage what little time we have here on the world.
So we have our hope that within this borrowed time we be able to give our Heavenly Father back His borrowed time when He so decides to come for all His children (Eph.1:10-11)That in the dispensation of the fullness of times He might gather together in one [sum up] all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in Him: in whom also we have obtained an inheritance [we were made a heritage], being predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things after the counsel of his own will.
Whether its time or borrowed time what does it really mean, and what affect does it really have on certain persons: meaning the two types of persons that exists in this world; the lost and the saved. To the saved it is for us to patiently wait for our Heavenly Father and not involve ourselves with what will be tomorrow (Jam.4:14)Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appears for a little time, and then vanishes away. As for the lost what is to be expected of their outcome: being so full of sin and disobedience, and contradict the word of God. Simply because they are killing time on their borrowed time.
As I have mentioned time and time again that time will be no more, and that the borrowed time that we are living in shall come to naught; is perhaps a lot closer than one thinks: this is declared by God with the assistance of the Holy Spirit through the Apostle John in the book of Revelations. Just as this book give detailed information on just how and what will happen in the end of time as we know it (Rev.10:6)And sware by Him that lives for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things that therein are, that there should be time no longer.
If you wish to consider time; consider this: when was the last time that you prayed and begged God for His mercy, and glorious forgiveness. In consideration, wouldn’t it be wise to do something about it before its to late. Always remember who you are and where you came from; but most importantly keep in mind that the kingdom of God is at hand!

The ignorance of man, and their worldly knowledge

It appears that every time that I inquire anything pertaining to the word of God with the so called scholars, teachers, and philosophers of the Holy word of God: they all scrutinize the entire word of God with their malicious involvement of worldly knowledge! Meaning that, and according to them; when you read a certain passage that contains a word; a specific word it may have the meaning of different notations: that what you are reading does not really mean what you are reading, but that it is telling you something else and not the exact thing.
This to me is a deliberate way of adding to what God has simplified for all to fully understand in the easiest literal way and form. Upon adding to it they easily take from it so that they can understand it better in accordance to the knowledge of this world: its all blasphemy! Instead of leaving it the way it is; they will automatically resort to their own studies of general education in the form of grammatical literature. This to me is another form of deceiving the human mind, the weak at heart [a malicious distortion of ones reasoning, and understanding].
This is what has been prophesied throughout the entire word of God: concerning false teachers that have erupted and will always erupt only to distort the true meaning of God’s Holy word. They formulize different ways; different ideas to show the people who lack the understanding of God‘s word; just to have them understand their private interpretation of God’s word. It’s a showmanship of the lost to create an understanding that only the people of this world can comprehend: falsified knowledge, and a misconception of God’s true meaning.
They are of this world, and they are there for the people of this world as this was stated by the Apostle John in his first epistle (1Jo.4:5) They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world hears them. Glory be to our Heavenly Father who has given to some the true understanding, and giving us the privilege, and the right of belonging to Him(1Jo.4:6)We are of God: he that knows God hears us; he that is not of God hears not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
In fact our Lord Jesus Christ forewarned his Apostles and disciples concerning false prophets [false teachers] (Matt.7:15)Beware of false prophets, which come unto you in sheep clothing, but in-wardly they are ravening wolves. That is why it is very important to study the word of God, so, that they as well as we will never be deceived by any false teachers; but lets not fool ourselves in this because it has been foretold that even the very elect can fall just as easy! (Mk.13:22-23)For false Christ’s and false prophets shall rise, and shall show signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. But take ye heed: behold I have foretold you all things.
This next passage is what our Lord spoke of: one of many woes, and this was prophesied through the lips of (Ezekiel22:27)Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain. And through the lips of the Prophet (Zephaniah3:4)Her prophets are light and treacherous persons; her priest have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law. In fact, their corruption has gone way off, their distortion has veered away of the fine line of the straight path that is but narrow (Eze.22:26)Her priest have violated my law, and have profaned mine Holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and the profane [common], neither have they showed difference [cause man to discern] between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my Sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. This is even very noticeable to this day as there are multiple religions, denomination, congregations; which are treacherously false teachers of the dark side of man, and have made it almost impossible to comprehend all of what is really going on in this vile world of perversion.
Unfortunately, things began to go wrong with man [the priests] of yesteryear; they began to do things in accordance to their own will by not abiding to the word of God (Mal.2:7-8)For the priests lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is a messenger of the Lord of hosts. But ye departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, said the Lord of hosts. Evidently, this the same mentality that satan had against God; when he wanted to be as superior as God: so, he therefore introduced it to the priest of those years or rather to man for the corruption of God‘s Holy word. In which they are all called false prophets and teachers, and eventually began to create a mass creation of the many forms of religions and beliefs.
One of the areas that we need to look for in those false teachers, or ministers; is if they are very well spoken of, and should be, and are considered the manipulators of the world, deceivers of mankind.
This is what our Lord and Savior spoke on this behalf; concerning them (Luke6:26)Woe unto you, when men shall speak well of you! For so did their fathers to the false prophets. And, reason being is that they are of this world, and the world hears them; but our consolation is that we are not of this world because the world hates us: as this was stated by our Lord Jesus Christ to all those who heard him during his ministry (Jo.15:19)If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
The sickening idea of just how corrupt these persons are; can really get to the best of those who are called God’s true children, defenders of the faith, defenders of the word of God. In any case, that is the only and main reason why there exists all these form of false doctrines created by false teachers: who are to be considered the puppets of satan himself. Boldly and with great emphasis this was very well proclaimed by our Lord Jesus Christ in his rebukes towards, and against the Jews [scribes, Pharisees, elders, and teachers of Israel] (Jo.8:23)and he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world I am not of this world.
Here is wisdom that was sent by the Holy Spirit of God: to those that were chosen by Christ [God]; as they were brought to remembrance of God’s wisdom “He who has ears to hear let him hear what the Holy Spirit has spoken” (Jo.3:31)He that comes from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthy, and speaks of the earth: he that comes from Heaven is above all. This alone speaks very loud of all its true essence of what is God’s Holy wisdom, knowledge, His infinite glory, and our privileged providence too look with awe.
For those of us who do know the warnings we can not make any excuse for ourselves, or look for any scapegoat of not being warned; because if anyone truly has read the word of God; we would have found numerous passages of warnings against everything that is false, and everything that is against God and His glorious word. For instance: The Apostle Peter spoke to all Christians in general of the concerns of false teachers: that if they, as well as we, are not careful can and will be punished (2Pe.2:1-9). The Holy Spirit spoke through the Apostle Paul of this in the book of Acts: that even within the brotherhood some shall rise to distort the truth (Acts20:29-31)For I know this, that after my departure shall grievous wolves enter among you, not sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn you everyone night and day with tears. As an example Paul told Timothy of what happens to those who do in fact blaspheme or speak against, wrongfully, or distort the word of God (1Ti.1:20)Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto satan, that they learn not to blaspheme.
As an extreme warning the Apostle Paul with the assistance of God’s Holy Spirit forewarns Timothy what to expect in time of perils, in times of heresies, in time of corruptions: that some of those who were chosen will eventually fall to the seducing spirits [false teachers under the helm of satans disciples] by way of false doctrine (1Ti.4:1-2)Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; speaking lies of hypocrisy [through the hypocrisy of men that speak lies]; having their conscience seared [branded by their own conscience] with a hot iron. As we know what is meant that the Spirit spoke expressly; would be what should be known by the true worshippers of God: that the spirit was too come to the twelve with power and fill them up with the truth and the whole truth, and not lies and deception as does the falsified doctrine that is of this worldly knowledge.
This was spoken to the Apostles by our Lord Jesus Christ when he was speaking of his departure from them , and yet, he was not going to leave them alone (Jo16:13)Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you unto all truth [the truth]: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come.
Apart from being called false teachers and false prophets they are called and considered many other names; yet this is only found in the word of God and not from the knowledge of this perverted world: for example we have the word scoffers which is found in the book of (2Pe.3:3)knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts. (2Pe.2:10)but chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, self willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities. Warnings of, and foretelling of the wickedness of the last days (2Ti.3:1)This know also, that in the last days perilous [grievous] times shall come. (Jude18-19)How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
Have the perilous times already begun; because of all the filth that is out in the world these days? Who can deny this considering the technologies that exists in this vile world. I am speaking with the technologies starting with the invention of the press printer to today’s e-books. It’s a sure way of reaching people in whatever way possible to fill up their heads with trash that is formulated by man, and the evil that has been around since the beginning of time: the serpent on the tree. I can relate with the notion that it will eventually get worse towards the end of time that awaits everyone of this corrupted world: this was prophesied in the book of (Rev.9:20)And the rest of the men which were not killed by the plagues yet repented not 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. (Rev16:14)For they are the spirit of devils, working miracles [signs], which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
For now, we have the necessary tool to be prepared us for what is ahead, but in all reality what is today, tomorrow, and the future time for that matter “the Holy word of God”, is the only way we can prepare for what is the destiny of what is now. So, we are therefore commanded to never trust any spirit that lingers out there in this self destructing world and its inhabitants (1Jo.4:1)Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirit whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
Another thing that we are to prepare for is the anti-christ of the last times as well as all the anti-christs that are every where in this world. To fully understand what is meant by anti-christ we figure that all who are in contrary to the will of God and fix up a formulation of their own beliefs to get dishonest gain is the anti-christ. This is what the Apostle John in his first epistle wrote concerning the anti-christ (1Jo.2:18)Little children, it is the last time [hour] and as ye have heard that anti-christ shall come, even now are there many anti-christ; whereby we know that it is the last time.
Basically, we need to be very much aware of what all is written in the word of God in the concerns of what can and will destroy anyone’s salvation in the form of being deceived by the deceivers of this world with the help of their father the devil. From this point I will supply all the necessary passages to familiarize ourselves with what we need to know; and if the good Lord allow we will never be deceived by no man: (Matt.24:4,5,24) (Jer.29:8-9)(Eph.5:6) (Col.2:8,18) (Jer.14:14;23:21,25) (Jo5:43) (Mk.13:22) (2Th.2:9-11) (Rev.13:13); these are perhaps only a few that I have found that pertains to the lesson that is at hand; in which evolves around the word false: false teachers, false prophets, false doctrines, and last the anti-christ.
To end this lesson lets consider one main hope that we have as children of the living God. It is the foundation of the Lord is sure, solid as a rock, and can never be moved, but by God Himself (2Ti.2:19)Nevertheless the foundation of God stands sure, having this seal, The Lord knows them that are his. And, let every one that names the name of Christ depart from iniquity [unrighteousness]. This name is what is “a name that needs to be reckon with“: that can save anyone from the darkness of this world and from the ignorance of man and their worldly knowledge created by false teachers (Eph.1:21)Far above all principality [rule], and power [authority], and might [power], and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come. (Phil.2:9)wherefore God also has highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name. (Acts4:12)Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Our consolation is knowing that our Heavenly Father is always there for His children (Na.1:7)The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and He knows them that trust in Him. All in all lets not dread on anything that is of this world because of the hatred that will arise against the children of God (1Jo3:13)Marvel not, my brothers, if the world hates you. The hatred come s from satan himself; because he does not want us to be saved and worship God, but rather wants us all too suffer as he is, will suffer for eternity.
The ignorance of man, and their worldly knowledge is temporal never really abiding to anything but self destruction. The wisdom, knowledge of God is forever always abiding in the love of God has for His children: everything that is of God is infinity and never fails.
