In and within it, the Word of God we find, the very words of scripture are the inspired words of God and His Voice can be heard by earnestly reading it and hearing it read aloud with a mindset to do what it says and to Go God's Way! If you're desperate and when you find God He will let you if you believe what He wrote, that it was for you. Spiritually spiritual things are spiritually discerned. Hearing God's songs in Church or His Gospel put to music can help one make the decision to relate to God by a relationship of personally knowing Him admitting one is drifting and needy to have His love revealed inside in becoming born again. Aware one has sinned and stand before God unworthy they ask God to forgive them and spend time with Him in prayer and acknowledge what Christ's Work on the Cross did for them is valid. Choosing God's Standard among other people one learns the hesitating necessary to obey Christ and God Rather than go along with the status quo of the world. We take by faith a stand for Christ as God teaches us to refuse sin and sinful ways and choose Holiness as we learn we can't earn God's Love and that getting to Heaven someday is a Gift of God if we continue in the faith andn disciplIng unto Jesus Christ to live a holy life in Christ.

What is a soul worth? Edited for 1/28/16
The Word of God says, "what shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his soul?" Only what 's done for Christ will last. The cross shows us the lengths God would go to save us. The depth of His love amazes!
The Word of God proclaimed unashamed is convicting by God alone doing the work.
Did you know Jesus went to a Cross And hung there tormented in the body but did it for our sins just enough to last on a cross cross six hours which is a miracle in itself, having predicted He would be whipped and scourged and handed over to the Jews and crucified that we might be redeemed and born again in relationship with God through that one Death, burial, and Resurrection? Do you currently have a relationship with God the Father? The goal is Christlikeness with love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith and discipling unto a focal point of Jesus Christ following obeying, doing what He tells you to do like His Mother Mary told us to do at the Wedding at Cana. Amen. Get saved. God loves you!

Forgiven? Does one need this forgiveness to rightly relate richly to God?

Yes indeed absolutely God's forgiveness is needed to have peace with Him. We are totally depraved and unable to please God in our flesh and blood. We need forgiveness, the love of a Savior! If Heaven is your goal when you die a right relationship with Our Maker is primary! God loves you!
God has no pleasure in the death of the wicked. He is longsuffering seeing we perish because of sins. The Word of God in fact says otherwise when it says in Romans 5, "In due time Christ died for the-ungodly," and, "While we were still sinners (and enemies of God) Christ died for us!" God does not want our sacrifices. The sacrifices of God are a gentle and quiet spirit, a broken heart and right spirit. Rend your hearts and not your garments God's Word teaches us. He wants our heart.
God wants us as friends and-children not slaveS of sin. He that sins is the servant of sin it says. But if any man be In Christ, forgiven, he/she is a new creature, a new creation, the old has dissappeared, the new has come. Grace is the key which is Jesus.
When you pass away, God's Word says, God looks to see if the name is in the Book of Life and if the Blood of Jesus Christ covers your sin. We decide by faith to believe the inclusiveness and exclusivity of God's plans and come to Jesus Christ now to meet God face to face, and to belong to His Family through faith in the Finished Work of Christ to pay for your sins by His Death, Burial, And Resurrection, Ascension, and Exaltation! Salvation is the Gift of God not of works lest any man should boast! That's in Ephesians.2:8,9,10.
After being saved and confessing your wrong before God and making peace, how we live from then on supposing first we come to Christ this way which is the way of His Blood, is our thank you letter to God living by faith in the Son of God The Sinless Lamb of God Who takes away the sins of the world! There is so much more to the Abundant Life Christ offers than mere forgiveness such like eating at God's Table and enjoying His fellowship! A Great Fellowship Assembly! Forever, Eternally! We live in and through the Lord Jesus Christ a life of mercy, action, and peace: bondslaves of His who knew His will and obey as friend then on.. Do you have a slavish fear of God? "Abba" is how God wants you to think of His! It means "Daddy!" Or "Papa O My Papa!" Whoever is forgiven much will love much! Christ has made an Overpayment for our sins. It is grace over and above mercy. Right believing will bring right living! Where sin abounds, grace superabounds! And Remember God loves you! To fear of God is met when one worships God! Follow Jesus!

A Last Days Ministry - Will You Be Available For An Appointment With God?
SPIRITUAL THINGS ARE SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED. The natural man perceiveth not in himself the Eternity of Eternities nor the life that springs Eternal Life from a real relationship with Christ and to God by looking in. We must look out and away to the lifted high Cross where Jesus Christ died for our sins.
God Loves You Unconditionally but His Salvation Is By Faith In the Son.
GOD LOVES YOU! At our Church we are a loving, personal touching, assembly. (-->By Love Song: Little Country Church,) (->video two: The Hollies,<)Because Jesus went to a Cross and Died a substitutionary Atonement Death for our sakes in our place we can say with truth and freedom on our side that: He is Risen indeed and this is our most blessed assurance our sins are forgiven. The Holy Ghost can make that real to you if you know God but to know Him right you need a brand new existence and become a disciple which means student. -->A VIDEO
For whosoever shall call upon the Name of the Lord will be saved. Jesus said, "you must be born again, born anew spiritually." His finished work is now available and can help us magnificently and fabulously if we have faith in Christ in wisdom for our lives direction and salvation, the Holy Spirit working alongside..helping you, "go and sin no more," as Jesus said to a person caught in the act of adultery in John 8:11. Believe that within in the Presence of God in Christ inside you He wills to go before you and enabling you to live each moment with a brand majestic 'newness of life' inside you and with a new heart and new spirit/mind and a new attitude to live happy and follow Christ!! God forgives you in giving you a new spiritual heart to love God first then knowing He first loved and does loves you!! You are somebody!! You are forgiven indeed because Jesus did it all to save you (He went to a Cross) and He keeps giving and giving...accept Him! He loves you! Come to Jesus Christ for salvation, for the Holy Ghost convicts that He is God and bowed to humble Himself to serve and not be served, but to give His Life a Ranson for many: then follow Him.
He Who knew no sin became sin in our behalf that we might be reconciled to God. II Cor 5:21,19.
Even in suffering for God as a famous survivor of Nazi Concentration War Camps: one named Ravensbruck, in particular Corrie Ten Boom says, "There is no pit so deep that He is not deeper still." God has a purpose and plan in suffering that won't be thwarted. (Eph. 3:8-10; see Romans 8:18,28,29.)Our sufferings are not worthy to be compared with the glory He shall reveal in us, (if we suffer with Him.)
To conclude: A Disciple of Jesus is one who becomes like His Master in thought, word, and deed, and attitude. Philip who was one such disciple was approached by some at the close of Jesus' life, by Greeks saying, "Sir, we would like to see Jesus." Jesus strangely answered the question, of what, "Sir, we would like to see Jesus (Himself,") meant and He explained that around the time of the raising of Lazarus thus by saying, "except a kernel of wheat fall to the ground and die having died it died abiding alone, but if it falls and dies, (In Christ,) it will bear much fruit."
In like manner we, meaning all Bible believing Christians believe Jesus is the Son of God and was God's seed to bring Himself a Harvest. And inwardly we following Jesus complete entails denying yourself, taking up your cross and obeying/following Christ's commands to the enth degree and at once in leaving sin behind, you're born again. You're saved from being a sinner to become Christ's loved Disciple. One dies to their desires by making Jesus their own Savior and Risen Master letting Him inside increasingly to manipulate your life like a Lord works on a vessel: that works the clay on the wheel to be a useful clay pot to God and beneficial for Eternal Life and uses of His to live in superior bliss than the pleasures of sin in this life have to offer to be in Heaven forever and it starts by getting saved now as God fills the God-shaped vacuum inside you and me. Problems will only seem to get worse seemingly when you get saved born again because with unloading friends you will have had in the world there is an emptiness and then a struggling to overcome the flesh which before would drag us down so now we believe there is no condemnation in Christ Jesus being we walk differently and we will instead live obedient to the "prepared works" we do according to God's foreordination (Eph. 2:10.) Which He is there along side you never to fail nor leaving you to strengthen comfort and abide with you, console you and make you His in a look of His Victory in your eyes and throat as obey His story. Faithful is He Who calls you Who as well will do it and He'll finish the work He started in you until the Day He completes you (Heaven.)
Being born again do seek to be encouraged in everything to be obediently subject to God and His Son and have nothing to do with the deeds of darkness. His glory shining brightly inside us as witnesses to reflect God's glory, while we becoming a testimony to God's testimony of His Son will be anxiously awaiting your belief system. And becoming one who is aware of the Body of Christ ministering we'll find a niche in the Body to fellowship. From first to last salvation is God's doing; our's is to respond to Him. Maintain a relationship with God moment by moment through kathartic union with Him in obeying His Voice heard in His Word the Bible and love your fellow man by professing Christ whenever and wherever you go abiding in the Vine a genuine son or daughter of His in Jesus Christ as a branch participating in the Sap re: the Vine to live and bear fruit forever. And come to His Table! Love your brother your sister as Christ has loved you!
Matthew 1:21 says, "And she will bear a Son, and you shall call His Name Jesus, for it is He who will save His people from their sins."
"Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it." "Except the Lord keep the city, the watchmen waketh but in vain." Psalms.

In Jesus How Sure Salvation.
M any have swerved aside to fruitless discussion. Many are confident God looks at us as having made mistakes and God looks the other way instead of at us, never calling them sins. Sort of like teens that would deny our right to existence and never acknowledge us as persons. But what about lifestyle? If we have a relationship with Jesus Christ shouldn't we have a different lifestyle than those calling themselves Christians and teachers living contrary to sound doctrine and the Word of God. God's sure salvation in Christ is the Provision of God in simplicity of faith. But only in Jesus. Take Jesus out and you got any run-of-the-mill religion or cult. True religion scripture says is to visit the widow and orphan and keep oneself unspotted from the world. The Church Jesus died for will be presented to God by His Son someday immanent. Jesus could come at any day. Prepare yourself like a Bride getting ready for a Wedding to her Bridegroom! Like the time of Noah many will not listen to the words of Father God in scripture, the Bible. Christ is the end of the law. So love one another and owe nothing. He that has loved his neighbor has fulfilled the law. Don't gossip about others. But the goal of instruction is love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith. A pure from God heart is not weighed down from immorality, not selfish, not worldly, not foolish, etc. but PURE PURE HEART. Why do we give God less than pure? Malachi, the Italian Prophet, says to give purely. A good conscience is to be brought up to those in evolution. "Why didn't we get rid of that thing long ago?," Pastor says, If we believed evolution," but He says, "we know love comes a good conscience that knows it must come from God and have no error, and is free from lack of love toward God or man. Sincere faith means faith that is without wax. It's pure. It's without shave, doing the makeup, putting all your plastice, get your silicone out, and anything literally that deadens the nerves in your face. But it holds to God's Word, and teaches God's Word only, and is a heart after God's heart. This is from I Timothy 1 of the New Testament. Let's get saved admitting O wretch I am without Jesus and the glory of God and by faith come to Jesus at an altar and get saved and stay saved. Follow after Jesus Christ with zeal and run your race to the end. Amen. Bethel Assembly Of God Church Sermon podcasting

IF GOD BE FOR US WHO COULD EVER BE AGAINST US! PART DEUX
link To accomplish this salvation is by faith and is commitment' requiring of us and to be cooperating in grace with the Voice of God and Spirit of God with which we discover obedience in results of love for God first and love for our neighbor second as we love ourself. This blessing we receive is by knowing the great great love of God FOR us by re ading the Word consistantly and praying and allowing God to work on us as a Potter would clay on a Potter's Wheel. Allow Him. Dave Candel
Jesus in being preached by the Prophets of Old Testament fulfilled over three hundred prophecies about Messiah directly. Given to us in the Bible, these writings definitively tell us God is in control, man however isn't, and thus also though man is made in God's image with free will. Man's pursuit of fig leaves to cover his inequities is puny religion ie. man's attempt to get to God on his own and it's futile. It's based on man's thoughts not especially God's thoughts Who being perfect (God) is glorified and praised. Christianity is not a religion but is a relationship. The buck STOPS AT JESUS CHRIST. Jesus is our good Shepherd and in His authentic realism is God in the flesh reaching down to man and saving him from sin in a love covenant in a fellowship-relationship of Blood. God has this 'in' with those Whom He chooses and they in turn choose His ways and Him. We have a Savior named Jesus. He takes away the sin of the world. He wants to dine with you Rev. 3:20.
Started four thousand years ago by God Himself with a man called Abraham in Chapter 15-17 of Genesis, God displayed a Covenant with him that was sacred. God Himself thus slew several different animals. Abram walked between the pieces and thus God was obeyed and that by faith believing & Abraham was given a son who down the family line become Messiah. Abraham is thus called the Father of the faithful and through him it is promised that all nations shall be blessed.
We don't worship a book, the Bible, but Who it brings us to saving faith and leads us to in a stand: the Living Word, Jesus, Who is the Fountain of Life to all who're thirsty and the giver of Abundant Life. The Bible is God's final authority in everything in life and is verbal plenary inspired, inerrant, and infallible in all ways. Inspiration throughout its pages is complete and in matters relating to God flawless. Before Abraham God had a verbal face-to-face Covenant with animal sacrifices with Adam, Seth, Noah, Enoch, and then by the time of Abraham, He built a Covenant by Oath and in Jacob He ratified, that was spiritually related and unified with man to God and was of the first agreements of Lordship of God over man. God being first party to begin the Covenant, He gave assurances that He would keep His promise or end of it and by giving an oath to do that too! God thus thwarted Satan and his plans. Satan has tried to destroy Messiah before he could be born for millenia. But God fulfilled His promise in sending Jesus Christ to be our Provision by Covenant because of the fall in the Garden of Eden which gave us need for it.
We needed a salvation because of deaths we couldn't overcome and consequences of sins. We were stuck and Jesus "in the fullness of times," lived and died and He is the Savior of the world from sin being He took upon Himself the whole world's sin (in the scripture it says in II Cor 5:21) and He came out the other side: a happening guy victorious! He is Risen and this so we might be able to live right aply put. But to live right before God is important for all of us obviously and by the Holy Spirit too. But what method?
Jesus lived a reverential life to God the Father when He walked here 2000 years ago in attentive obedience and pleasing. He showed us what God is like in our skin. He's Good, Holy, Righteous. When Jesus was crucified He satisfied God's Justice over sin. God was propitiated or satisfied by His Atonement. Don't ask me how but it occurs. But applying of that Atonement back then is personal and individual for us now and happens by way of the Cross through influences and witnesses to that light that are through Jesus for us in God and with the help of the Holy Spirit.
He lived to about age 30 when He was Baptized and heard a Voice as did others there standing with Him from Heaven saying, "This is My Beloved Son in Whom I Am well pleased, Hear ye Him." He started to minister and heal under the Anointing of the Holy Spirit according to the Bible record. After His Resurrection He came to send us an anointing too and for us to be IN HIM that is replaced with His Life and immersed or baptized into His Living Mend and Atoning Death and Victorious Resurrection. Christ's life becomes ours mysticly and we give Him our sinful lives and for that God grants us a respectful God-fearing raised risen Life in Jesus. This is salvation in Christ Galatians 2:20; Colosians 2, 3:1-12.
Christ's purpose is to forgive us of all of our sins and take them away and that by believing to believe Him in His Name and Who He is, is the only way to be saved. This is continuous ongoing faith in Christ. To get to Heaven & to know that you get God's Kingdom now within after receiving salvation by believing Him is good to have also, as fringe benefit.
To follow Him as our all in all is everything prepared for then on from the empty Tomb's victory side inside us we're up for worshiping God wholly and rejoicing in what Christ has done for YOU on the Cross re: this is important for us to meditate on and live in!
After His Resurrection Jesus's people and God-fearers wondered why Jesus didn't restore all things as He said would be on God's agenda. But Jesus said, "it's not for you to know the epochs or seasons the Father has in store in His keeping.," in Acts 1.
Jesus in remaining integrus of unfolding of light illuminated to us said, "the Holy Spirit The Comfortor would not come unless and if only Jesus (He) went away. The Holy Ghost would be like Himself in every single way (allos in Greek for the exact same kind.) The Holy Spirit would magnify Jesus and the truth (alethea in Greek,) reminding born again Christians (God's New Covenant children) what Christ said and did. The Restoration would come later (see Revelation 21,22.)
The early Church went about telling the good news: telling of Jesus Resurrection and why that does saves us today to everybody they met by spoken word leleo (greek, chirping or gossiping the Gospel.) The message of the Gospel good news was pricking to their hearts as it's a disciple's lifestyle, cutting to the heart of many who are lost and who then became saved souls as disciple after disciple became a witness that died a martyr's death to lift up Jesus's Name. But persecution for the stand they took was winning the world upside down. God let it happen a long time into the Middle Ages.
The Holy Spirit was empowering the body of Christ to think and be men of action who would 'BE' WITNESSES for Jesus Christ and it shows by attitude that became the underdog David that slew the Goliath: Nero and ten or so Emperor's. The Church gains Eternal Life today as it did then in bowing the knee to and making profession to the Lord Jesus Christ rather than Caesar. Satan bites dust. Jesus made a display openly of this vanquished foe Satan.
But God truly wants to give you newness of life or in other words a glimpse in living for Christ of an extraordinary life in the realm of influence He's called you to by the Power of the Spirit possible or by the empowerment of the Christ's faith for you in, & made "complete." But get saved first. This is obtain (Eternal Life starts) in accepting believing Christ and living for Him. We admit we deserve hell but throw ourselves on God's mercy knowing His love. Behold, Today is the day of salvation.
For the Kingdom of God is not a geographic location in this age but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost within and among Romans 14:17. God will accomplish this loving favor by His grace alone. He's called you to a change (greek Metamorphouo) from a sinful life to a transformation spiritually to being born again from faith to faith. God doesn't want anyone lost but rescued in this Gospel plan.
Pretty soon there may be no delay by God in longsuffering or tarrying for His Son's Comimg again. God chose by the foolishness of PREACHING to save those that believe. To see Christ crucified taught is what we want to see and hear, not in eloquence, but with plainness of speech. You see not many mighty, not many noble are called. But God chose the offscouring of this world to shame the wise. But the cross is the weakness of God stronger than men, foolishness to Greeks, and a stumblingblock to Jews.
To be saved, and Jesus Himself mentioned the way is narrow and gate, straight to Life. And the way to destruction is broad and its gate wide and many living people in sin go to their end of hell by sin's destructive consequence thereat and perish tormented eternally, and so we need a faith that sees beyond what others see, a belief of faith IN JESUS that grows (into born of God life: zoe in Greek - the God kind of life.) Are we prepared?
Jesus spoke about hell as a place to shun and as did the brother of Christ, James, Gehenna and Paul, Perdition but Christ spoke more about hell than anyone in scripture. Christ in essence said, "You must have faith in Me because I am Savior and Lord and if I be lifted up above all men in My sacrifice in Dying on a cross for you by the Spirit's choice given to you: I am resurrected and you'll be saved and so be able *to enter or see the Kingdom of God *if you believe: John's Gospel 3:1-16 (paraphrase.") "I AM the Resurrection and the Life," Jesus said.
A God Who lets sinful people have their way for very long wouldn't be just nor would He be very loving to the victims of a sinner flashing a sword to victims. God wants you well that's why He gave the Law. "The Law is Righteous and good," Paul said in Romans two. But it doesn't have power to help us obey. Believing belief in Jesus does.
Sin is lawlessness and violating the Laws of God which Law was given to us through Moses show us that we fail God (as in The Ten Commandments mistook,) as well as God's Holiness and Love in everyday events disobeyed by misdirecting an inner voice, namely the Holy Spirit's voice and that can be convicting or commending.
We would not know it was against the law to covet if it wasn't in the law, Paul said in Romans seven. When we hear the law, "we died," because of its holy demands and we have to change our thinking and believe God has better ways of the Spirit.
"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit. Romans 8:1 says, " Jesus didn't come to condemn the world but that the world might be saved through Him (Christ,) John 3:17.
Antionomism is anything goes and every situation, relative to the next one, (in living it up,) allowing for no absolutes...: that is behavior and attitude action hellish: false conduct, thus making chaos. By this we grieve God who gives the Holy Spirit.
But we see by these infallible proofs the laws that God puts out there that we failed to obey, are His laws, we don't own them (specificly we disobey Him.) 613 laws of the Law (of God given through Moses) & we are bad at keeping even though we might live a ying & yang, good-and-bad life that we think God might balance out. But that's no good for you. As light cannot dwell with darkness so we are called to radical sonship in the Lord Jesus as opposed to this world's ambitions. "There is no one good but God," Jesus said, and His Standard is Holiness. But Jesus Christ our Unleavened Bread is sacrificed for us. There is no leaven in Him.
These Ten Commandments (or 613 depending on how you view them,) show us a limit on personal avenging of a victim to his/her aggressor. This is God's mercy fulfilled in Jesus Christ today that this limit is put there by God to avenging or vigilanteism. Between coveting and retributive sins face it we've lost, we're in sin.
God in essence is saying we need a Savior to live it, to lessen the severity of the bumps in the night enough to gaze upon the beauty of Jesus. To save us from our passions we need a Savior for in many ways we have gone way over the line or limitation in sinning before God. Remember God is Holy, Righteous, Good to the last drop, the Bible proclaims.
If we have ever lied we have sinned before God or if we have ever stolen we have sinned also. Scripture says one sin is as bad as any other and, "miss the Mark in one point, and you've missed (failed) every one of them," (James 2:10.) Thoughts of love turned to lust? hate? murder in the heart?
We deserve hell rightly so because God's Law judges such attitude/behavior (See Jesus' words in Matthew 5,6,7,) and God the Judge does as well. But you can be saved if you look to Jesus. Encountering Jesus face to face you can be translated or conveyed from the power of darkness into the Kingdom of His Dear son, Colossians 1:13.
For Utopia or Heaven God created creation majesty and man and woman in dignity because to live there and to live there after death requires a "perfection suit." Otherwise as soon as one of us showed up there it would be no longer Utopia or Heaven. We'd stink up the place acting rude and ugly. Jesus went to Paradise and succeeded at God's Presence for us: expanding, redeeming, intimating, and in His Body reconciled us to Father in Heaven. II Cor. 5:19.
He shows us all that's there in Heaven waiting for us. He's the 'perfection suit.' All others are liars and thieves, "trying to climb up some other way," scripture declares, "into the sheepfold," John 10 says. But Jesus couldn't be kept in the grave. He arose the third day. He was justified, vindicated, declared innocent. Jesus is God and is God dwelling among us in flesh in a way we could relate to. When He went to Heaven He sent His Spirit. We, in Heaven someday, will get a Body just like His if we don't move away from the hope of the Gospel good news delivered to us after becoming saved.
In mercy He Himself now provides the way to Himself this place Heaven we could not bridge when He sent Himself in the form of Jesus Christ: He lived it: a pleasing life to God before God pleasing of His Ten Commandments (and the 613 laws) here on earth obedient to death even a savory cross death pleasing fragrance to God (by incense) to the last breath.
In His Cross victory His way, we could accept "it is Finished" by the Son reach the resurrection from the dead (meaning Heaven,) Paul said in Philipians at the Rapture or when we die by knowing Christ inside because, "absent from the body is to be present with the Lord."
This is the first resurrection. It's a sure promise with conditions as every promise has conditions. We must grab hold of it though every promise has its yes in Jesus Christ. We are partakers of Christ's promises of God if we persevere in faith mixing faith with a good report. God has His timing to answer us. It may be "no," "yes," or "wait." God answers prayer in the Son.
He died in weakness a crucifixion death by man's hand (II Corinthians 13:4,) and that was Friday's happenings...but Sunday's a Coming! and He Arose from the dead and lives by the Power of God in that victorious fashion He alone could do and adopted us as sons crying "Abba, Father!" That Resurrection has been the most well documented fact of history!
He brought tithes and offering to God which was His Blood to the Throne where God dwelt. His righteousness counted because it was His. Access is now there. He has gone through the Heavens and its all ready. He had gone to the cross to suffer God's wrath in an eternity in those six hours on the cross. He suffered our punishment full blown of an eternity of eternities in God's Wrath completely and came out the other side! Alive!
He became our faults before God then and had the full strength of God's Judgment and Wrath poured out upon Himself just to save us, to come out the other side, victorious, and to make us more than conqueror's, overcomers in this life, born again, saved at last belonging to Him. Now we can go free from the snare of the fowler's like birds set free: forgiven! Can you not respond in kind careful of your fate if you don't, that to that act of one time accept and once for all believe Jesus the Son of God with committment that Jesus Christ will apply it to you? And you will be Saved. Pray about it. Won't you?
You can have faith to be healed and for salvation. You can be assured of Heaven as you follow Jesus on this earth. By the Holy Spirit who gives life and ministry to each of us! God says, "I will dwell among you and be your God." II Corinthians. God is here and in the Bible specially has His Presence in and upon lives of believers.
But you have to be IN Christ to win or gain but not earn Eternal Life but gain God's Presence. In other words, salvation has to be applied to your life and it's a forward gaining stamp of approval working out salvation God wills to do that has to see the end of your life BY GRACE proved faithful and for sure it's a Gift (Bepo in Greek,) by unmerited favor. 'Faith alone' by grace alone in those that obey by faith alone through Christ alone is to those abiding in the Lord.
The obedience of faith in God Paul spoke of in Romans chapter one and through chapter 16 in other words will be how God wants pleasure from you if you will will God's will. Jesus lived that Jewish perfect life perfectly. "I am the way the truth and the life, no man gets to the Father but by Me," Jesus Christ said (John 14:6.)
We need to be born of God or born again Jesus taught (John 3:3,5!) It's simple. Not all Israel are Israel. He is a Jew who is one inwardly. We admit we're sinners and have fallen short of God's glory (and that's in Romans 3:23 we deserve hell.) Romans three verse ten says, "There is none righteous, no not one." We therefore fall on the mercy of God and roll our fault on Him and accept Christ as our Lord and Savior humbly in a bow before Him. This can happen all at once in fact. Paul the Apostle said He when he realized he was not doing God's will or bidding, he bowed before God and so should we.
Be following Christ all the days of your life and meaning it backed up by obedience and godly motives, authentic & sincere by grace through faith we will be a sure foundation against the storms of life to come established on the Laws and Promises of God and we'll have an inheritance God gives walked out that we will have prepared for us rooted in God. Jesus is the only way to God. Abide in Him like a Branch to a Vine kept by a Vinedresser, Father God John 15:1-5.
It is my prayer that you will pray fervently earnestly to know God to the point God knows you through Christ forever and sincere & ask God to be saved through Jesus' Blood so you can be ready should He call you home to Heaven (Philippians 3:20-21,) or for more action in this life and use for God. So then read the Bible all you can and find Jesus Christ for your life and lifestyle obeying daily. It's for everyone! It's a new spiritual life not religious jargon nor religion at all but the reality. God promises a new self. God giveth a new heart and new mind. This is all in Christ and all things are of God re: II Corinthians 5:17,18: newness of life!
I was at an age of four when I understood this and asked Him in to be my Savior from sin.
It is made a child can understand good news of God's love and faith and trust and be saved. It has been a better life, a witness for Jesus, since then asking Christ inside for me and I have never regretted a moment of it, making Jesus Lord, Savior, and Master! My aim as is the desire of everyone born again in Christ is to be Christlike more like Jesus Christ moment by moment throughout one's lifetime by faith and trust which brings obedience into it.

Jesus in being preached by the Prophets of Old Testament fulfilled over three hundred prophecies about Messiah directly. Given to us in the Bible, these writings definitively tell us God is in control, man however isn't, and thus also though man is made in God's image with free will. Man's pursuit of fig leaves to cover his inequities is puny religion ie. man's attempt to get to God on his own and it's futile. It's based on man's thoughts not especially God's thoughts Who being perfect (God) is glorified and praised. Christianity is not a religion but is a relationship. The buck STOPS AT JESUS CHRIST. Jesus is our good Shepherd and in His authentic realism is God in the flesh reaching down to man and saving him from sin in a love covenant in a fellowship-relationship of Blood. God has this 'in' with those Whom He chooses and they in turn choose His ways and Him. We have a Savior named Jesus. He takes away the sin of the world. He wants to dine with you Rev. 3:20.
Started four thousand years ago by God Himself with a man called Abraham in Chapter 15-17 of Genesis, God displayed a Covenant with him that was sacred. God Himself thus slew several different animals. Abram walked between the pieces and thus God was obeyed and that by faith believing & Abraham was given a son who down the family line become Messiah. Abraham is thus called the Father of the faithful and through him it is promised that all nations shall be blessed.
We don't worship a book, the Bible, but Who it brings us to saving faith and leads us to in a stand: the Living Word, Jesus, Who is the Fountain of Life to all who're thirsty and the giver of Abundant Life. The Bible is God's final authority in everything in life and is verbal plenary inspired, inerrant, and infallible in all ways. Inspiration throughout its pages is complete and in matters relating to God flawless. Before Abraham God had a verbal face-to-face Covenant with animal sacrifices with Adam, Seth, Noah, Enoch, and then by the time of Abraham, He built a Covenant by Oath and in Jacob He ratified, that was spiritually related and unified with man to God and was of the first agreements of Lordship of God over man. God being first party to begin the Covenant, He gave assurances that He would keep His promise or end of it and by giving an oath to do that too! God thus thwarted Satan and his plans. Satan has tried to destroy Messiah before he could be born for millenia. But God fulfilled His promise in sending Jesus Christ to be our Provision by Covenant because of the fall in the Garden of Eden which gave us need for it.
We needed a salvation because of deaths we couldn't overcome and consequences of sins. We were stuck and Jesus "in the fullness of times," lived and died and He is the Savior of the world from sin being He took upon Himself the whole world's sin (in the scripture it says in II Cor 5:21) and He came out the other side: a happening guy victorious! He is Risen and this so we might be able to live right aply put. But to live right before God is important for all of us obviously and by the Holy Spirit too. But what method?
Jesus lived a reverential life to God the Father when He walked here 2000 years ago in attentive obedience and pleasing. He showed us what God is like in our skin. He's Good, Holy, Righteous. When Jesus was crucified He satisfied God's Justice over sin. God was propitiated or satisfied by His Atonement. Don't ask me how but it occurs. But applying of that Atonement back then is personal and individual for us now and happens by way of the Cross through influences and witnesses to that light that are through Jesus for us in God and with the help of the Holy Spirit.
He lived to about age 30 when He was Baptized and heard a Voice as did others there standing with Him from Heaven saying, "This is My Beloved Son in Whom I Am well pleased, Hear ye Him." He started to minister and heal under the Anointing of the Holy Spirit according to the Bible record. After His Resurrection He came to send us an anointing too and for us to be IN HIM that is replaced with His Life and immersed or baptized into His Living Mend and Atoning Death and Victorious Resurrection. Christ's life becomes ours mysticly and we give Him our sinful lives and for that God grants us a respectful God-fearing raised risen Life in Jesus. This is salvation in Christ Galatians 2:20; Colosians 2, 3:1-12.
Christ's purpose is to forgive us of all of our sins and take them away and that by believing to believe Him in His Name and Who He is, is the only way to be saved. This is continuous ongoing faith in Christ. To get to Heaven & to know that you get God's Kingdom now within after receiving salvation by believing Him is good to have also, as fringe benefit.
To follow Him as our all in all is everything prepared for then on from the empty Tomb's victory side inside us we're up for worshiping God wholly and rejoicing in what Christ has done for YOU on the Cross re: this is important for us to meditate on and live in!
After His Resurrection Jesus's people and God-fearers wondered why Jesus didn't restore all things as He said would be on God's agenda. But Jesus said, "it's not for you to know the epochs or seasons the Father has in store in His keeping.," in Acts 1.
Jesus in remaining integrus of unfolding of light illuminated to us said, "the Holy Spirit The Comfortor would not come unless and if only Jesus (He) went away. The Holy Ghost would be like Himself in every single way (allos in Greek for the exact same kind.) The Holy Spirit would magnify Jesus and the truth (alethea in Greek,) reminding born again Christians (God's New Covenant children) what Christ said and did. The Restoration would come later (see Revelation 21,22.)
The early Church went about telling the good news: telling of Jesus Resurrection and why that does saves us today to everybody they met by spoken word leleo (greek, chirping or gossiping the Gospel.) The message of the Gospel good news was pricking to their hearts as it's a disciple's lifestyle, cutting to the heart of many who are lost and who then became saved souls as disciple after disciple became a witness that died a martyr's death to lift up Jesus's Name. But persecution for the stand they took was winning the world upside down. God let it happen a long time into the Middle Ages.
The Holy Spirit was empowering the body of Christ to think and be men of action who would 'BE' WITNESSES for Jesus Christ and it shows by attitude that became the underdog David that slew the Goliath: Nero and ten or so Emperor's. The Church gains Eternal Life today as it did then in bowing the knee to and making profession to the Lord Jesus Christ rather than Caesar. Satan bites dust. Jesus made a display openly of this vanquished foe Satan.
But God truly wants to give you newness of life or in other words a glimpse in living for Christ of an extraordinary life in the realm of influence He's called you to by the Power of the Spirit possible or by the empowerment of the Christ's faith for you in, & made "complete." But get saved first. This is obtain (Eternal Life starts) in accepting believing Christ and living for Him. We admit we deserve hell but throw ourselves on God's mercy knowing His love. Behold, Today is the day of salvation.
For the Kingdom of God is not a geographic location in this age but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost within and among Romans 14:17. God will accomplish this loving favor by His grace alone. He's called you to a change (greek Metamorphouo) from a sinful life to a transformation spiritually to being born again from faith to faith. God doesn't want anyone lost but rescued in this Gospel plan.
Pretty soon there may be no delay by God in longsuffering or tarrying for His Son's Comimg again. God chose by the foolishness of PREACHING to save those that believe. To see Christ crucified taught is what we want to see and hear, not in eloquence, but with plainness of speech. You see not many mighty, not many noble are called. But God chose the offscouring of this world to shame the wise. But the cross is the weakness of God stronger than men, foolishness to Greeks, and a stumblingblock to Jews.
To be saved, and Jesus Himself mentioned the way is narrow and gate, straight to Life. And the way to destruction is broad and its gate wide and many living people in sin go to their end of hell by sin's destructive consequence thereat and perish tormented eternally, and so we need a faith that sees beyond what others see, a belief of faith IN JESUS that grows (into born of God life: zoe in Greek - the God kind of life.) Are we prepared?
Jesus spoke about hell as a place to shun and as did the brother of Christ, James, Gehenna and Paul, Perdition but Christ spoke more about hell than anyone in scripture. Christ in essence said, "You must have faith in Me because I am Savior and Lord and if I be lifted up above all men in My sacrifice in Dying on a cross for you by the Spirit's choice given to you: I am resurrected and you'll be saved and so be able *to enter or see the Kingdom of God *if you believe: John's Gospel 3:1-16 (paraphrase.") "I AM the Resurrection and the Life," Jesus said.
A God Who lets sinful people have their way for very long wouldn't be just nor would He be very loving to the victims of a sinner flashing a sword to victims. God wants you well that's why He gave the Law. "The Law is Righteous and good," Paul said in Romans two. But it doesn't have power to help us obey. Believing belief in Jesus does.
Sin is lawlessness and violating the Laws of God which Law was given to us through Moses show us that we fail God (as in The Ten Commandments mistook,) as well as God's Holiness and Love in everyday events disobeyed by misdirecting an inner voice, namely the Holy Spirit's voice and that can be convicting or commending.
We would not know it was against the law to covet if it wasn't in the law, Paul said in Romans seven. When we hear the law, "we died," because of its holy demands and we have to change our thinking and believe God has better ways of the Spirit.
"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit. Romans 8:1 says, " Jesus didn't come to condemn the world but that the world might be saved through Him (Christ,) John 3:17.
Antionomism is anything goes and every situation, relative to the next one, (in living it up,) allowing for no absolutes...: that is behavior and attitude action hellish: false conduct, thus making chaos. By this we grieve God who gives the Holy Spirit.
But we see by these infallible proofs the laws that God puts out there that we failed to obey, are His laws, we don't own them (specificly we disobey Him.) 613 laws of the Law (of God given through Moses) & we are bad at keeping even though we might live a ying & yang, good-and-bad life that we think God might balance out. But that's no good for you. As light cannot dwell with darkness so we are called to radical sonship in the Lord Jesus as opposed to this world's ambitions. "There is no one good but God," Jesus said, and His Standard is Holiness. But Jesus Christ our Unleavened Bread is sacrificed for us. There is no leaven in Him.
These Ten Commandments (or 613 depending on how you view them,) show us a limit on personal avenging of a victim to his/her aggressor. This is God's mercy fulfilled in Jesus Christ today that this limit is put there by God to avenging or vigilanteism. Between coveting and retributive sins face it we've lost, we're in sin.
God in essence is saying we need a Savior to live it, to lessen the severity of the bumps in the night enough to gaze upon the beauty of Jesus. To save us from our passions we need a Savior for in many ways we have gone way over the line or limitation in sinning before God. Remember God is Holy, Righteous, Good to the last drop, the Bible proclaims.
If we have ever lied we have sinned before God or if we have ever stolen we have sinned also. Scripture says one sin is as bad as any other and, "miss the Mark in one point, and you've missed (failed) every one of them," (James 2:10.) Thoughts of love turned to lust? hate? murder in the heart?
We deserve hell rightly so because God's Law judges such attitude/behavior (See Jesus' words in Matthew 5,6,7,) and God the Judge does as well. But you can be saved if you look to Jesus. Encountering Jesus face to face you can be translated or conveyed from the power of darkness into the Kingdom of His Dear son, Colossians 1:13.
For Utopia or Heaven God created creation majesty and man and woman in dignity because to live there and to live there after death requires a "perfection suit." Otherwise as soon as one of us showed up there it would be no longer Utopia or Heaven. We'd stink up the place acting rude and ugly. Jesus went to Paradise and succeeded at God's Presence for us: expanding, redeeming, intimating, and in His Body reconciled us to Father in Heaven. II Cor. 5:19.
He shows us all that's there in Heaven waiting for us. He's the 'perfection suit.' All others are liars and thieves, "trying to climb up some other way," scripture declares, "into the sheepfold," John 10 says. But Jesus couldn't be kept in the grave. He arose the third day. He was justified, vindicated, declared innocent. Jesus is God and is God dwelling among us in flesh in a way we could relate to. When He went to Heaven He sent His Spirit. We, in Heaven someday, will get a Body just like His if we don't move away from the hope of the Gospel good news delivered to us after becoming saved.
In mercy He Himself now provides the way to Himself this place Heaven we could not bridge when He sent Himself in the form of Jesus Christ: He lived it: a pleasing life to God before God pleasing of His Ten Commandments (and the 613 laws) here on earth obedient to death even a savory cross death pleasing fragrance to God (by incense) to the last breath.
In His Cross victory His way, we could accept "it is Finished" by the Son reach the resurrection from the dead (meaning Heaven,) Paul said in Philipians at the Rapture or when we die by knowing Christ inside because, "absent from the body is to be present with the Lord."
This is the first resurrection. It's a sure promise with conditions as every promise has conditions. We must grab hold of it though every promise has its yes in Jesus Christ. We are partakers of Christ's promises of God if we persevere in faith mixing faith with a good report. God has His timing to answer us. It may be "no," "yes," or "wait." God answers prayer in the Son.
He died in weakness a crucifixion death by man's hand (II Corinthians 13:4,) and that was Friday's happenings...but Sunday's a Coming! and He Arose from the dead and lives by the Power of God in that victorious fashion He alone could do and adopted us as sons crying "Abba, Father!" That Resurrection has been the most well documented fact of history!
He brought tithes and offering to God which was His Blood to the Throne where God dwelt. His righteousness counted because it was His. Access is now there. He has gone through the Heavens and its all ready. He had gone to the cross to suffer God's wrath in an eternity in those six hours on the cross. He suffered our punishment full blown of an eternity of eternities in God's Wrath completely and came out the other side! Alive!
He became our faults before God then and had the full strength of God's Judgment and Wrath poured out upon Himself just to save us, to come out the other side, victorious, and to make us more than conqueror's, overcomers in this life, born again, saved at last belonging to Him. Now we can go free from the snare of the fowler's like birds set free: forgiven! Can you not respond in kind careful of your fate if you don't, that to that act of one time accept and once for all believe Jesus the Son of God with committment that Jesus Christ will apply it to you? And you will be Saved. Pray about it. Won't you?
You can have faith to be healed and for salvation. You can be assured of Heaven as you follow Jesus on this earth. By the Holy Spirit who gives life and ministry to each of us! God says, "I will dwell among you and be your God." II Corinthians. God is here and in the Bible specially has His Presence in and upon lives of believers.
But you have to be IN Christ to win or gain but not earn Eternal Life but gain God's Presence. In other words, salvation has to be applied to your life and it's a forward gaining stamp of approval working out salvation God wills to do that has to see the end of your life BY GRACE proved faithful and for sure it's a Gift (Bepo in Greek,) by unmerited favor. 'Faith alone' by grace alone in those that obey by faith alone through Christ alone is to those abiding in the Lord.
The obedience of faith in God Paul spoke of in Romans chapter one and through chapter 16 in other words will be how God wants pleasure from you if you will will God's will. Jesus lived that Jewish perfect life perfectly. "I am the way the truth and the life, no man gets to the Father but by Me," Jesus Christ said (John 14:6.)

Jesus is the only way to God. Abide in Him like a Branch to a Vine kept by a Vinedresser, Father God John 15:1-5.

IF GOD BE FOR US WHO COULD EVER BE AGAINST US!
link
To accomplish this is commitment' requiring of us and to be cooperating with the Voice of God and Spirit of God with which we discover obedience in results of love for God first and love for our neighbor as we love ourselves. And this is by the great great love of God FOR us by reading the Word and allowing God to work on us as a Potter would clay on a Potter's Wheel. Allow Him. Dave Candel
Jesus by the way fulfilled over three hundred prophecies about Messiah. Given in the Bible these writings definitely tell us God is in control, man is not, though man is made in God's image. Religion is man's attempts to get to God and it's based on man's thoughts not especially God's thoughts. Christianity is not a religion but is a relationship. Jesus in His authentic seal is God reaching down to man in love in a fellowship-relationship of Blood Covenant with those Whom He chooses and they in turn choose His ways and Him. We have a Savior.
Started by God Himself with a man called Abraham in Chapter 15-17 of Genesis, God wanted a Covenant that was sacred. God Himself thus slew several different animals, Abram walked between the pieces, and thus God was obeyed by faith & Abraham was given a son who would down the family line become Messiah. Abraham is thus called the Father of the faithful.
We don't worship a book, the Bible, but Who it leads us to: the Living Word, Jesus, Who is the Fountain of Life to all who're thirsty. The Bible is God's final authority in everything being verbal plenary inspired, inerrant, and infallible in inspiration and in matters relating to God. Before Abraham God had a verbal speech face to face Covenant with sacrifices from Adam, Seth, Noah, Enoch, and then by the time of Abraham, a Covenant and in Jacob He ratified, that was spiritually related and unified with man to God and God was the first starter or first party to begin it and God gave assurance He would keep His promise of it by giving an oath to do that too! God thus thwarted Satan. God therefore started the salvation of mankind fulfilled in Jesus Christ by Covenant because of the fall in the Garden of Eden.
We needed a salvation because of deaths we couldn't overcome and consequences of sins. We couldn't escape death and the consequences of our sin. God gave us Jesus "in the fullness of times," and He is the Savior of the world from sin being He took upon Himself the whole world's sin in the scripture it says in II Cor 5:21 and He came out the other side: a happening guy victorious!

Don't ask me how but it occurs. But applying of that Atonement back then is personal and individual for us needed now by way of influences and witnesses to the light that are good for us in God and the help of the Holy Spirit.
He lived to about age 30 when He started to minister and heal under the Anointing of the Holy Spirit according to the Bible. He came to send us an anointing too and for us to be IN HIM that is immersed or baptized into His Life and Death and Resurrection and replacement by Christ's life for our sinful lives and then living a God fearing raised risen life in Him. This is salvation in Christ Galatians 2:20; Colosians 2, 3:1-12.
The Four New Testament Gospels give a precise accurate description of His Life and Ministry Purpose, to forgive us all of our sins and take them away and that to believe Him in His Name is the only way to be saved. And to get to Heaven and to know that you get God's Kingdom now within after receiving salvation by believing Him is good to have also, fringe benefits.
To follow Him as our all in all is everything then on even from the empty Tomb's victory side inside us and on up to worshiping God wholly and rejoicing in what Christ has done for YOU on the Cross re: is important to meditate on and live!

But persecution for the stand they took was winning the world upside down. God let it happen a long time.
The Holy Spirit was empowering the body of Christ to think and act and 'BE' WITNESSES for Jesus Christ and it shows by attitude that became the underdog David that slew the Goliath: Nero and ten or so Emperor's. The Church gains Eternal Life in bowing the knee to and making profession to the Lord Jesus Christ rather than Caesar. Satan bites dust.
But God truly wants to give you a newness of life or in other words a glimpse of an extraordinary life in the realm of influence He's called you to by the Power of the Spirit possible or empowerment of the Christ's faith for you in other words, made "complete." But get saved first. Obtain Eternal Life that starts for you in accepting believing Christ and living for Him. Behold, Today is the day of salvation.

To be saved, and Jesus Himself said the way is narrow ruggedly and gate, difficult to Life. And the way to destruction is broad and the gate wide to it and many living in sin go to their end of hell by sin's destructive consequences thereat and are perished, and so we need a faith that sees beyond what others see, a belief of faith IN JESUS that grows (into born of God life: zoe in Greek - the God kind of life.)

If we have ever lied we have sinned before God or if we have ever stolen we have sinned also. Scripture says one sin is as bad as any other and, "miss the Mark in one point, and you've missed (failed) every one of them," (James 2:10.) Thoughts of love turned to lust? hate? murder in the heart?
We deserve hell rightly so because God's Law judges such attitude/behavior (See Jesus' words in Matthew 5,6,7,) and God the Judge does as well. Encountering Jesus face to face you can be translated or conveyed from the power of darkness into the Kingdom of His Dear son, Colossians 1:13.
For Utopia or Heaven God created creation majesty and man and woman in dignity because to live there and to live there after death requires a "perfection suit." Otherwise as soon as one of us showed up there it would be no longer Utopia or Heaven. We'd stink up the place acting rude and ugly. Jesus went to Paradise and succeeded at God's Presence for us: expanding, redeeming, intimating, and in His Body reconciled us to Father in Heaven. II Cor. 5:19.
He shows us all that's there waiting for us. He's the 'perfection suit.' All others are liars and thieves, "trying to climb up some other way," scripture declares, "into the sheepfold," John 10 says. But Jesus couldn't be kept in the grave. He arose the third day. He was justified, vindicated. Jesus is God and is God dwelling among us in flesh in a way we could relate with. When He went to Heaven He sent His Spirit. We, in Heaven someday, will get a Body just like His if we don't move away from the hope of the Gospel good news delivered to us in becoming saved.
In mercy He Himself now provides the way to Himself and this place Heaven we could not bridge when He sent Himself in the form of Jesus Christ: He lived it: a pleasing life to God before God pleasing of His Ten Commandments (and the 613 laws) here on earth obedient to death even a savory cross death pleasing God (by incense) to the last breath.
In His Cross victory His way, we could accept "it is Finished" by the Son and so somehow to reach to the resurrection from the dead (meaning Heaven,) Paul said in Philipians at the Rapture or when we die by knowing Christ inside because, "absent from the body is to be present with the Lord."
This is the first resurrection. It's a sure promise with conditions as every promise has conditions. We must grab hold of it though every promise has its yes in Jesus Christ. We are partakers of promises of God if we persevere in faith mixing faith with a good report. God has His timing to answer us. It may be "no," "yes," or "wait."
He died in weakness a crucifixion death by man's hand (II Corinthians 13:4,) and that was Friday's happenings...but Sunday's a Coming! and He Arose from the dead and lives by the Power of God in that victorious fashion He alone could adopt us for as sons crying "Abba, Father!" That Resurrection has been the most documented fact of history!
He brought tithes and offering to God which was His Blood to the Throne where God dwelt. His righteousness counted because it was His. Access is now there. He has gone through the Heavens and its all ready. He had gone to the cross to suffer God's wrath in an eternity in those six hours on the cross. He suffered our punishment full blown of an eternity of eternities in God's Wrath completely and came out the other side! Alive!
He became sin then and had the full strength of God's Judgment and Wrath poured out upon Himself just to save us, to come out the other side, and make us more than conqueror's, overcomers in this life, born again, saved at last belonging to Him. Now we can go free from the snare of the fowler like birds set free: forgiven! Can you not respond in kind cautious of your fate if you don't, to that act of one time and once for all believe Jesus the Son of God with committment that Jesus Christ will apply it to you? And you will be Saved. Pray about it.
You can have faith to be healed and for salvation. You can be assured of Heaven as you follow Jesus on the earth.
By way of Background,
There was a way of the Ark of His Presence which had a Mercy Seat surrounded by four cherebim and many seraphim where God dwelt back in the Old Testament. This later became the Temple: Holy of Holies. And then Christ Himself on earth and now Christ is within each believer, by the Holy Spirit who gives life and ministry to each of us! God says, "I will dwell among you and be your God." II Corinthians. God is here and in the Bible specially has His Presence in and upon believer's lives.
But you have to be IN Christ to win or gain but not earn Eternal Life but gain God's Presence. In other words, salvation has to be applied to your life and it's a forward gaining stamp of approval working out that has to see the end of your life BY GRACE proved faithful and for sure it's a Gift (Blepo in Greek,) by unmerited favor. 'Faith alone' by grace alone in those that obey by faith alone through Christ alone is to those abiding in Christ.
The obedience of faith in God Paul spoke of in Romans chapter one and through chapter 16 in other words will be how God sees and wants pleasure from you if you will will God's will. Jesus lived that perfect life perfectly. "I am the way the truth and the life, no man gets to the Father but by Me," Jesus Christ said (John 14:6.)
We need to be born of God or born again Jesus taught (John 3:3,5!) It's simple. We admit we're sinners and have fallen short of God's glory (and that's in Romans 3:23 to say.) Romans three verse ten says, "There is none righteous, no not one." We fall short on the mercy of God and roll our faults on Him and accept Christ as our Lord and Savior humbly in a bow before Him. This can happen all at once. Paul the Apostle said He when he realized he was not doing God's bidding bowed before God and so should we.
Be following Christ all the days of your life and meaning it authentically & sincerely: will be a sure foundation against the storms of life to come established on the Laws and Promises of God and we'll have an inheritance God gives walked out that we will have prepared for us rooted in God. Jesus is the only way to God. Abide in Him like a Branch to a Vine kept by a Vinedresser, Father God John 15:1,2.
It is my prayer that you will pray fervently earnestly to know God to the point God knows you through Christ and sincerely ask God to be saved through His Blood so you can be ready should He call you home to Heaven (Philippians 3:20-21,) or for more action in this life and use for God: so then read the Bible and find Jesus Christ for your life and lifestyle daily. It's for everyone! It's a new spiritual life not religious jargon nor religion at all. God promises a new self. God giveth a new heart and new mind. This is all in Christ and all things are of God re: II Corinthians 5:17,18: newness of life!
I was at an age of four when I understood this and asked Him in to be my Savior from sin.
It is made by God so a child can understand good news of God's love and faith and trust and be saved. It has been a better life, a witness for Jesus, since then asking Christ in for me and I have never regretted a moment of it, making Jesus Lord, Savior, and Master! My aim as is the desire of everyone born again in Christ is to be Christlike and more like Jesus Christ moment by moment throughout one's lifetime by faith and trust which brings obedience into it.
Bethel Assembly Of God Church Great sermons last Sunday!
To accomplish this is commitment' requiring of us and to be cooperating with the Voice of God and Spirit of God with which we discover obedience in results of love for God first and love for our neighbor as we love ourselves. And this is by the great great love of God FOR us by reading the Word and allowing God to work on us as a Potter would clay on a Potter's Wheel. Allow Him. Dave Candel
Jesus by the way fulfilled over three hundred prophecies about Messiah. Given in the Bible these writings definitely tell us God is in control, man is not, though man is made in God's image. Religion is man's attempts to get to God and it's based on man's thoughts not especially God's thoughts. Christianity is not a religion but is a relationship. Jesus in His authentic seal is God reaching down to man in love in a fellowship-relationship of Blood Covenant with those Whom He chooses and they in turn choose His ways and Him. We have a Savior.
Started by God Himself with a man called Abraham in Chapter 15-17 of Genesis, God wanted a Covenant that was sacred. God Himself thus slew several different animals, Abram walked between the pieces, and thus God was obeyed by faith & Abraham was given a son who would down the family line become Messiah. Abraham is thus called the Father of the faithful.
We don't worship a book, the Bible, but Who it leads us to: the Living Word, Jesus, Who is the Fountain of Life to all who're thirsty. The Bible is God's final authority in everything being verbal plenary inspired, inerrant, and infallible in inspiration and in matters relating to God. Before Abraham God had a verbal speech face to face Covenant with sacrifices from Adam, Seth, Noah, Enoch, and then by the time of Abraham, a Covenant and in Jacob He ratified, that was spiritually related and unified with man to God and God was the first starter or first party to begin it and God gave assurance He would keep His promise of it by giving an oath to do that too! God thus thwarted Satan. God therefore started the salvation of mankind fulfilled in Jesus Christ by Covenant because of the fall in the Garden of Eden.
We needed a salvation because of deaths we couldn't overcome and consequences of sins. We couldn't escape death and the consequences of our sin. God gave us Jesus "in the fullness of times," and He is the Savior of the world from sin being He took upon Himself the whole world's sin in the scripture it says in II Cor 5:21 and He came out the other side: a happening guy victorious! He did this so we might be able to live right aply put. But to live right before God is important for all of us obviously.
Jesus Himself lived a reverential life to God when He walked here 2000 years ago in obedience. When Jesus was crucified He satisfied God's Justice over sin. God was propitiated or satisfied by it. Don't ask me how but it occurs. But applying of that Atonement back then is personal and individual for us needed now by way of influences and witnesses to the light that are good for us in God and the help of the Holy Spirit.
He lived to about age 30 when He started to minister and heal under the Anointing of the Holy Spirit according to the Bible. He came to send us an anointing too and for us to be IN HIM that is immersed or baptized into His Life and Death and Resurrection and replacement by Christ's life for our sinful lives and then living a God fearing raised risen life in Him. This is salvation in Christ Galatians 2:20; Colosians 2, 3:1-12.
The Four New Testament Gospels give a precise accurate description of His Life and Ministry Purpose, to forgive us all of our sins and take them away and that to believe Him in His Name is the only way to be saved. And to get to Heaven and to know that you get God's Kingdom now within after receiving salvation by believing Him is good to have also, fringe benefits.
To follow Him as our all in all is everything then on even from the empty Tomb's victory side inside us and on up to worshiping God wholly and rejoicing in what Christ has done for YOU on the Cross re: is important to meditate on and live!
After His Resurrection people of God wondered why Jesus didn't restore all things as He said would be on God's agenda. But Jesus said, "it is not for you to know the epochs or seasons the Father has in His keeping.," in Acts 1.
But before He (Jesus) died He said, "the Holy Spirit The Comfortor would come if Jesus went away and would be like Himself in every single way (allos in Greek for the same kind.) The Holy Spirit would magnify Jesus and the truth (alethea in Greek,) reminding born again Christians (His children) of what He said. The Restoration would come later (see Revelation 21,22.)
The early Church went about doing good: telling of Jesus Resurrection and why that saves us to everybody they met by spoken word leleo (greek, chirping or gossiping the Gospel.) The message of the Gospel good news was a lifestyle message also, cutting to the heart of many who are lost who became saved souls as disciple after disciple became a witness that died a martyr's death. But persecution for the stand they took was winning the world upside down. God let it happen a long time.
The Holy Spirit was empowering the body of Christ to think and act and 'BE' WITNESSES for Jesus Christ and it shows by attitude that became the underdog David that slew the Goliath: Nero and ten or so Emperor's. The Church gains Eternal Life in bowing the knee to and making profession to the Lord Jesus Christ rather than Caesar. Satan bites dust.
But God truly wants to give you a newness of life or in other words a glimpse of an extraordinary life in the realm of influence He's called you to by the Power of the Spirit possible or empowerment of the Christ's faith for you in other words, made "complete." But get saved first. Obtain Eternal Life that starts for you in accepting believing Christ and living for Him. Behold, Today is the day of salvation.
For the Kingdom of God is not in a geographic location in this age but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost Romans 14:17. God will accomplish this by His grace alone. He's called you to a change from a sinful life to a transformation spiritually being born again from faith to faith. God doesn't want anyone lost in other words but rescued.
Pretty soon there may be no delay by God in longsuffering or tarrying for His Son's Comimg again. God chose by the foolishness of PREACHING to save those that believe. To see Christ crucified taught is what we want to see and hear, not in eloquence, but with plainness of speech.
To be saved, and Jesus Himself said the way is narrow ruggedly and gate, difficult to Life. And the way to destruction is broad and the gate wide to it and many living in sin go to their end of hell by sin's destructive consequences thereat and are perished, and so we need a faith that sees beyond what others see, a belief of faith IN JESUS that grows (into born of God life: zoe in Greek - the God kind of life.)
Jesus spoke about hell as a place to shun and as did the brother of Christ, James, Gehenna and Paul, Perdition but Christ spoke more about hell than anyone in scripture. Christ in essence said, "You must have faith in Me because I am lifted up above in My sacrifice in Dying on a cross for you by the Spirit given when I am resurrected and you'll be saved *to enter or see the Kingdom of God *if you believe: John's Gospel 3:1-16 (paraphrase.")
A God Who lets sinful people have their own way for very long wouldn't be just nor would He be very loving to the victims of a sinner flashing a sword to victims. God wants you well that's why He gave the Law. "The Law is Righteous and good," Paul said in Romans two.
Sin is lawlessness and violating the Laws of God which Law was given to us through Moses to show us we fail God (as in The Ten Commandments,) as well as God's Holiness and Love in everyday events by misdirecting an inner voice, namely the Holy Spirit's voice can be convicting or commending even now.
We would not know it was against the law to covet if it wasn't in the law, Paul said in Romans seven. When we hear the law, "we died," because of its holy demands and we have to change our thinking and believe God has better ways of the Spirit.
"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit. Romans 8:1 says, " Jesus didn't come to condemn the world but that the world might be saved through Him, John 3:17.
Antionomism is anything goes and every situation, relative to the next one, (living it up,) allowing for no absolutes...: that is in behavior and attitude action: false conduct, thus making chaos. By this we grieve God who gives the Holy Spirit.
But we see by these infallible proofs and the laws that God puts out there we fail to obey, are His laws, we don't own them (specificly we disobey Him.) 613 laws of the Law (of God given through Moses) we are bad at keeping even though we might live a ying & yang, good-and-bad life that we think God might see and in miniscule chance (judge) to be" balanced out." But that's no good for you. As light cannot dwell with darkness so we are called to radical sonship in the Lord Jesus as opposed to this world's ambitions. "There is no one good but God," Jesus said, and His Standard is Holiness.
These Ten Commandments (or 613 depending on how you view them,) show us a limit on personal avenging of a victim to his/her aggressor. This is God's mercy that this limit is put there by God to avenging or vigilanteism. Between coveting and retributive sins face it we've lost.
God in essence is saying we need a Savior to live it, to lessen the severity of the bumps in the night enough to gaze on the beauty of Jesus. To save us from our passions we need a Savior for in many ways we have gone way over the line or limit in sinning before God. Remember God is Holy, Righteous, Good to the last drop, the Bible proclaims.
If we have ever lied we have sinned before God or if we have ever stolen we have sinned also. Scripture says one sin is as bad as any other and, "miss the Mark in one point, and you've missed (failed) every one of them," (James 2:10.) Thoughts of love turned to lust? hate? murder in the heart?

We Lay Down Our Rights When We Get Saved.
W e lay down our rights when we get saved. we renounce all and forsake all to follow Him, Jesus or Yaweh. The Lord God has shed the Blood of His Son so we might be saved. Our response is to leave "the nets," and follow Him. He obeyed fully the requirements of God in this life having been a faithful rabbi and obedient son of the Father, even pleasing of God. It took a lot to be a follower of The Rabbi Jesus. You dedicated your whole life to Community, the desire or hunger for the words of God or Word of God, and you had a desire to be like the Rabbi in every imitable way. Just like the Jewish Rabbinical School of Thought in Corizon and Bethsaida where mighty works were done by Jesus, the signs and wonders pointed to Rabbi Jesus Christ as Messaih. Jesus said, woe or condemantion to these two cities because if it were possible, the cities of Sodom and Gommorah would have repented if they had seen the mighty healings and raisings and deliverances that were done in Corizon or Bethsaida! Jesus wept over Jerusalem, "If only you would have known the hour of your visitation, but behold, it is hidden from your eyes." America repent. Trust in God. Our nation of some 230 years is still young. Sin has left a crimson stain He washed it white as snow! By grace we have been born a light, a shining city on a hill, and survive and only by grace or God's unmerited favor can we go on. If we saw how the gulf has been fixed between Heaven and hell and how near God wants to be!.. we'd climb into God's arms: live pure and believing of His Son, Jesus moment by moment kept by His love! Why we'd go the direction of God like a cheetah and be the people of God born again, praying for God's blessing, called by His Name, humbling ourselves, pray, and turn fromtheir wicked ways, "Then I will hear and forgive and heal their land." To be a disciple of the Rabbi meant that He believes in you! He loves you! First! So go and sin no more and believe the Son for this is the work of God to believe on His Name! The Holy Spirit is given that we might remember the words of Jesus and truth and finding comfort might be afflicted to have that zeal to obey righeousness and receive gift of holiness! Cut off your right hand if it causes you to sin. But remember God will cause you to give an account of your life and when you stand before the Son of Man, Son of God, His Spirit can give you a Newness of Life and victorious statement starting this Eternal Minute.

Follow The Truth Who Is Jesus, The Christ, Who Is Our Savior From Sin
The preaching of the Cross is to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Gentiles foolishness. The Cross shows the weakness of God but it's stronger than men. In a godly albeit human sense it's supernatural, our fellowship with God through the Gospel. We trust in the Holy Spirit to convict of sin and His empowerment for the Christ's faith to be sanctified, filled full of God. The River of Life is in the Holy Spirit animating transforming within who leads us though we be in a desert, and trusting God shows what's inside to the world. We're transformed from glory to glory like in a mirror by the Spirit of the Lord. We become a tree solid others can find shade in for Jesus' Names sake having the Kingdom in our midst or rule of Christ within. We must let the Christ reign within that He might rule without.
If this is strange language to you:
Spiritually you need to fill the vacuum within.
Do you know you must be born of God, born of the Spirit of fullness of Truth, love, peace, and joy to really experience? It's found in a relationship with God! Read the four Gospels and picture the Savior speaking just to you! Listen like you were really thirsty because those that stumble upon the Truth Who is a Person, Jesus, never fall in an Eternal way! They get saved and are kept in the Father's hand where no one can touch them! Have faith in The Truth Who is Jesus! Jesus lived a righteous life and then died on a cross becoming our sin so we by His Resurrrection might share in His Life evermore. This is the victory that overcomes the world even our faith.
Imagine the Word of God is His love letter to you and that His Son Jesus doesn't condemn you but wants you to go in to God's nearness and sin no more. Can you? If you're honest you'll ask Jesus inside to save you knowing you can't live it in your own sinful self. And wholly lean on Jesus pray to be saved and to encounter Jesus authentically for Heaven as your goal! You'll find satisfaction being a friend of God who can call Him Father! Follow the Son Who gave His life for you! Sonship in following the Son of God leads to favor or God's grace for help in time of need in living this life of faith and obedience. The Truth Is a Person: Jesus Christ, God's only Begotten Son. Live to glorify Him, praise and worship of God alone! see John ch. 14:6;14,15,16,17 of John's Gospel

Do you know you must be born of God, born of the Spirit of fullness of Truth, love, peace, and joy? It's found in a relationship with God! Read the four Gospels and picture the Savior speaking just to you! Listen like you were really thirsty because those that stumble on the Truth Who is a Person, Jesus, never fall! They get saved and are kept in the Father's hand where no one can touch them!
Imagine the Word of God is His love letter to you and that His Son Jesus doesn't condemn you but wants you to go and sin no more. Can you? If you're honest you'll ask Jesus in to save you knowing you can't live it in your sinful self. And wholly lean on Jesus pray to be saved and to encounter Jesus authentically! You'll find satisfaction being a friend of God who can call Him Father! Follow the Son Who gave His life for you!

Is It, "Your Best Life Now" or "Bondslaves, Suffering For Jesus?"
God Has Plans Greater For Us Than To Try To Make Our Lives More Happy & Cozy
Jesus is the Son of God and came from Heaven to earth to save our souls, develop our character, and to see us through to refined gold assuming we've been born again. Refined gold speaks of a spotless character not money. He did not come to baptize us in bad vinegar. We need to smile more and be glad and rejoice much more in Jesus.
Jesus by the way fulfilled over three hundred prophecies about Messiah. Given in the Bible these writings definitely tell us God is in control. Religion is man's attempts to get to God and based on man's thoughts not especially God's thoughts. Christianity is not a religion but a relationship. Jesus in His authenticity is God reaching down to man in love in a relationship of Blood Covenant. Early Indians in America would slice a blade across their hands to show they were in league or blood brothers with other tribes. In the Bible something similiar is started by God Himself with a man called Abraham in Chapter 15-17 of Genesis.
The Bible is God's final authority in everything being verbal plenary supplied inerrant and infallible in inspiration and matters relating to God. Before Abraham God had a verbal speech Covenant with sacrifices with Adam, Seth, Noah, Enoch, and then by the time of Abraham, a Covenant He ratified that was related and unified with man with God and God was the propounder or first party to start it.
We needed a salvation because of deaths we couldn't overcome and consequences of sins. We couldn't escape death and the consequences of our sin. God gave us Jesus "in the fullness of times," and He is the Savior of the world from sin being He took upon Himself the whole world's sin the scripture says in II Cor 5:21 and He came out the other side: a happening guy! He did this so we might be able to live right aplely put. But live right before God is important. Jesus Himself lived a reverential life to God when He walked here 2000 years ago in obedience.
He lived to about age 30 when He started to minister and heal under the Anointing of the Holy Spirit according to the Bible. He came to send us an anointing too and us to be IN HIM that is immerced or baptized in His Life and Death and Resurrection pleasing God after His Resurrection. The Four New Testament Gospels give a precise accurate description of His Life and Ministry Purpose, to forgive us all of our sins (at His Death primarily,) and that to believe Him is the only way to be saved while He was alive. And get to Heaven and to enter His Kingdom now receiving it also by believing Him is paramount. To follow Him as our all in all is everything then on from the empty Tomb and to worship God and rejoice in what Christ has done for you on the Cross!
After His Resurrection people of God wondered why Jesus didn't restore all things as He said would be on God's agenda. But Jesus said before He died that the Holy Spirit would come if He (Jesus) went away and would be like Jesus in every way (allos in Greek for the same.) The Holy Spirit would magnify Jesus and remind of what He said and the truth (alethia in Greek.) The Restoration would come later (see Revelation 21.) The early Church went about telling of Jesus Resurrection and why that saves us to everybody. The message of the Gospel good news was cutting to the heart as disciple after disciple became a witness that died a martyr's death. But persecution for the stand they took was winning the world upside down. The Holy Spirit was empowering the body of Christ to think and act and 'BE' WITNESSES for Jesus Christ and it shows by attitude and became the underdog David and that slew the Goliath: Nero.
God truly wants to give you a newness of life or in other words an extrordinary life in the realm of influence He's called you to by the Power of the Spirit or empowerment of the Christ's faith. Get saved first. For the Kingdom of God is not a geographic location but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit Romans 14:17. God will accomplish this by His grace. He's called you to a change. God doesn't want anyone lost in other words. Pretty soon there may be no delay by God in longsuffering or tarrying. God chose by the foolishness of PREACHING to save those that believe.
To be saved, and Jesus Himself said the way is narrow and hard to Life and the way to destruction is broad and its gate wide and many go to their consequences therein and are perished, and so we need a faith that sees beyond what others see, a belief of faith IN JESUS that grows (into born of God life: zoe in Greek - the God kind of life.) Jesus spoke about hell as a place to shun and as did the brother of Christ, James, Gehenna but Christ spoke more about hell than anyone in scripture. He said, "You must be saved to enter or see the Kingdom of God: John's Gospel 3:3,5." A God Who lets sinful people have their own way for long wouldn't be very just nor would He be very loving to the victim of a sinner flashing a sword. Sin is lawlessness and transgressing the Law of God which Law was given to us through Moses to show us we fail God (as in The Ten Commandments,) as well as God's Holiness and Love by misdirecting an inner voice, namely the Holy Spirit's voice which can be convicting or commending. "There is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus. Romans 8:1"
Antionomism is anything goes and every situation, relative to it, no absolutes that is in behavior and attitude action. By this we grieve God who gives the Holy Spirit. We see by these infallible proofs the laws that God puts out there we fail to obey Him (specificly Him,) within the Law (of God given through Moses) even though we might live a ying yang good life. These Ten Commands (or 613) show us a limit on personal avenging of a victim to his/her aggressor. God in essence is saying we need a Savior to save us from our passions for in many ways we have gone way over the line or limit in sinning before God.
If we have ever lied we have sinned before God or if we have ever stealed we have sinned also. Scripture says one sin is as bad as any other and, "miss the Mark in one point, and you've missed (failed) every one of them," (James 2:10.) Thoughts of love turned to lust? hate? murder in the heart? We deserve hell rightly so because God's Law judges such attitude/behavior (See Jesus' words in Matthew 5,6,7,) and God the Judge does as well. For Utopia God created creation of man and woman to live there and to live there requires a "perfection suit." Otherwise as soon as one of us showed up it would be no longer Utopia. We'd stink up the place acting rusde and ugly. Jesus went to Paradise and succeeded. He shows us its all there waiting for us. All others are liars and thieves, "trying to climb up some other way," scripture declares, "into the sheepfold." But Jesus couldn't be kept in a grave. He arose the third day. He was justified, vindicated.
In mercy He Himself now provides the way to Himself and this place Heaven we could not bridge when He sent Himself in the form of Jesus Christ: He lived a pleasing life to God before God pleasing of His Ten Commandments (and the 613 laws) here on earth obedient to death even a cross death pleasing God to the last breath. In His victory His way, we could accept "it is Finished" by the Son and so somehow to reach to the resurrection from the dead (meaning Heaven,) Paul said in Philipians at the Rapture or when we die by knowing Christ inside in a reality of the Spirit. This is the first resurrection. It's a sure promise with conditions as every promise has conditions. He died in weakness a crucifixion death by man's hand (II Corinthians 13:4,) and that was Friday's happenings...but Sunday's a Coming! and He Arose from death and lives by the Power of God in that victorious fashion He alone could adopt us for as sons crying "Abba, Father!" That Resurrection has been the most documented fact of history!
He brought tithes and offering to God which was His Blood to the Throne where God dwelt. His righteousness counted. Access is now there. He has gone through the Heavens and its all there. He had gone to the cross to suffer God's wrath in an eternity in those six hours on the cross. He suffered our punishment full blown of an eternity of eternities in God's Wrath completely and came out the other side intact! He became sin and had the full strength of God's Judgment and Wrath poured out upon Himself just to save us, and make us more than conqueror's, overcomers in this life. Now we can go free from the stall like calves, skipping, leaping: forgiven! Can you not respond in kind firmly to that act one time and once for all believe that Jesus could apply it to you? Saved? Pray about it.
You can have faith to be healed and salvation. You can be assured of Heaven as you follow Jesus on the earth.
By way of Background, There was a way of the Ark of His Presence which had a Mercy Seat surrounded by four cherebim and many seraphim where God dwelt back in the Old Testament. This later became the Temple: Holy of Holies. And then Christ Himself on earth and now Christ is within each believer, by the Holy Spirit who gives life and ministry to each of us!
But you have to be IN Christ to win or gain not earn Eternal Life. In other words, salvation has to be applied to your life and it's a forward gaining stamp of approval that has to see the end of your life proved faithful and in this respect it's a Gift (Bepo in Greek,) by grace lifelong to those that obey by faith through grace (in Greek, Chiro) in fact the obedience of faith Paul spoke of in Romans chapter one and to endure to the end primary. Jesus lived that perfect life perfectly. "I am the way the truth and the life, no man gets to the Father but by Me," Jesus Christ said (John 14:6.)
We need to be born of God or born again Jesus taught (John 3:3,5)! We admit we're sinners and have fallen short of God's glory (and that's in Romans 3:23 to say.) Romans three verse ten says, "There is none righteous, no not one." We fall short on the mercy of God and roll our doubts on Him and accept Christ as our Lord and Savior humbly in a bow before Him. Paul the Apostle said He bowed before God so should we. Be following Christ all the days of our life and meaning it authentically & we will build a sure foundation against the storms to come established on the Laws and Promises of God and have an inheritance we will have prepared for us rooted in God. Jesus is the only way to God. Abide in Him like a Branch to a Vine kept by a Vinedressor, Father God.
God can put us in the eye of the storm in peace in Him. NO other name under Heaven given among men is needed to be saved Acts 4:12. It is my prayer that you will pray fervently earnestly to know God to the point God knows you through Christ and sincerely ask God to be saved through His Blood so you can be ready should He call you home to Heaven (Philippians 3:20-21,) and read the Bible and find Jesus Christ for your life and lifestyle. It's for everyone! It's a new spiritual life not religious nor religion. God promises a new self. God giveth a new heart and new mind. This is in Christ. I was at an age of four when I understood this and asked Him in to be my Savior from sin.
It is made by God so a child can understand and be saved. It has been a better life, a witness for Jesus, since then for me and I have never regretted a moment of it! My aim as is the desire of everyone born again in Christ is to be Christlike and more like Jesus Christ moment by moment by faith and trust which brings obedience to it. To accomplish this is commitment' requiring of us and cooperating with the Voice of God and Spirit of God which we discover by reading the Word and allowing God to work on us as a Potter would clay on a Potter's Wheel.

Why The Blood Of Jesus Christ Must Be Applied To Oneself!
Jesus told many parables about life and the
Kingdom while He walked the planet 2000 years it's been. He said it's better to
be rich toward God than wise in your own conceit. Woe in fact to him who is
proud in possessions and not wealthy toward God. Scripture says, "If the
righteous scarcely be saved what will become of the ungodly and unrighteous? I
believe Him. What better way would there be for God to reveal to us He has a
will and a purposeful way than to walk in our shoes and become one of us. He
exaggerated the point in that one respect by becoming a baby and risking our
circumstances too. He chose a way to intertwine in our ways of life by showing
us what God is like totally. God heals people and does good to them which is
what Jesus did. Jesus also invited us to a feast or supper someday to be given
in His Honor. When He expanded His circle of influence & ministry He would
teach the Kingdom. Many would be drawn and listen and really hear. Some went
along for the ride flew the coop. He preached, "repent, for the God you think you know is here
in His Government (Kingdom.)" But instead of great signs performing like putting down the Romans He
was crucified. It was a sarcastic laugh Satan and his hordes had as this happened as Friday's
here....BUT SUNDAY'S A COMING!!! And three days later He Arose triumphant/victorious. He even
went so far as to insure the stone that held Him in the Tomb was rolled away so
we could get inside. Most of all proving it did occur, his disciples risked life and limb and
everything to get the Message of the GOOD NEWS out: "He Is Not Here, He Is
Risen!" It spread all over the world and turned the world upside down. Countless numbers of Christians would be docile as the lions of the Coliseum would ravage them. They had a
peaceful look and smile that devastated Nero. They indeed knew God had spoken.
Do we? Scripture says, unshakeable things will remain but right now the shakable
is being shaken. Are we slow to believe God raises the dead? or that the Blood of Jesus can save anybody from sin? God is not willing that any should perish for He has no
pleasure in the death of the wicked but only when they repent. "All things are
possible," Jesus said, "to him who believes." Jesus says, in the dramatic
present, "Let him who has ears to hear, really hear what the Holy Spirit is
saying to the Churches." John 14:6 says and Jesus says, "I am the way, the
truth, and the Life, no man cometh to Father but by Me." Is it going to matter
in 'the long run' if we are rich toward God? You betcha! We need to read Acts
2:38b again. It says, " Repent and be Baptized everyone one of you in the Name of Jesus Christ
for the Remission of sins and you will receive the Gift of the Holy Spirit."
It's worthy to be a born again believer because we get to go to Heaven but for now on earth we sit right in the Heavenlies
and become a bondslave to serve God and in Heaven we'll rule and reign with Christ someday. We need not listen
to the world calling us bad names but wholly lean on Jesus' Name and be born again.
People get ready Jesus is coming soon. God looks with mercy (Lovingkindness
Hebrew: chesed) and compassion on us because of what Christ has Done. His
finished work for us at the Cross has wrought victory over the world, sin, and
satan. "Sell what you have, buy alms, give to the poor, deny yourself, take up
your cross and follow Me," Jesus is saying to believers. Provide for yourselves bags that wax
not old Eternal in the Heavens and lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven.
Even a cup of cold water given in the name of a disciple will not lose its
reward. By grace from God alone we make it because our good works are like
filthy rags. It's by His mercy an Abundant Life In Christ is possible. Like the energizer bunny, that
Life of Christ within keeps going, and going, and going in perseverance. Read the Bible, pray, and
tell someone you love them; attend a Bible believing Church. Make it your home
or extended family! Love God and your neighbor! Follow Jesus!

Happy Father's Day
I Had A Godly Father And Dad!!
Thanks Lord for being there for me! How can I say thanks Lord God for the things You have done for me? I will take the cup of salvation and call upon the Name of God. Jesus is the Name above all Names, Beautiful Savior, Glorious Lord, Immanuel, God is with us. When I gave my heart to Christ I knew I'd be accused of being a goody-two-shoes but I determined I'd belong to God no matter what, believe God and His Kingdom, I'd seek even as a lad in Grade School with all my heart.

It says in Hebrews, "without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins."
All it takes is a prayer to God and a commitment to Christ can be made to be saved, admitting that you're a sinner, a falling short (of God's glory,) sinner, and confessing God's Redemptive Love, one accepts Christ as individual Savior and Lord from sin. You then follow Him abiding in Him, repenting, bearing fruit, then being a witness for Him after waiting on the Spirit. You reach for the Sceptor which is His, (His Righteousness, His Signet Ring.)
Love God and let Him know that you love Him and tell everyone you know, proclaiming "RELEASE," that "you're free! of this world: of the lust of the eyes, of lust of the flesh, and of the pride of life," because of what Christ has Done. You're not in it for a problem-free life but in a crucified consecration you belong to Jesus more, and more, and you now love God, & hate sin. Have that encounter with Jesus in God. Jesus said, "No man can come to Me unless the Father draw him." Jesus draws all men to Himself as He is lifted high. As born again then we're hungry to do the next right thing. This is background. You get a new heart and newness of life.
Jesus is that Davidic Covenant Keeper, Messiah. He fulfilled the Law by actually keeping it thoroughly by perfect love and obedience. He went beyond obeying to pleasing also Father God. He loved God and His fellow man perfectly. He is therefore able to save all that come unto God by Him seeing He ever lives to make intercession for them. He lives by the power of an indestructible life after His Resurrection. Sin's wage is death but death could not keep Him. (I wonder why, hint hint.)
"Trust him. And when you have done that, you are living the life of grace. No matter what happens to you in the course of that trusting — no matter how many waverings you may have, no matter how many suspicions that you have bought a poke with no pig in it, no matter how much heaviness and sadness your lapses, vices, indispositions, and bratty whining may cause you — you simply believe that Somebody Else,by his death and resurrection, has made it all right, and you just say thank you and shut up." - Robert Capon
Heaven is where God will wipe away all tears from our eyes and God through John goes on to say, "There will be no death, nor crying, nor any pain." "Behold," "I make all things new." "I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end." "I will lead him who is thirsty to living fountains of water." Amen.
Live for Him. Rest your entire weight of self on Him in committment to preserve for that Day of His return. Happy Fathers day!!!! Dave
I'd try to not let my left hand know what my right is doing as Christ said about giving but living it commending my conscience to God and every man's conscience as He gave me ability in expressing the Life from God within giving my life for His service I would do. Being bondslaves to Christ and knowing God at an early age, I tried to tell others about finding Christ inside and what that meant: what He did for me. I heard and felt abuse from Jews and Catholics alike but I looked for common ground, stayed the course, and remembered it's important to talk to God about someone before I talked to someone about God. I wanted to be a disciple of Jesus' in truth not just an outward Christian. I knew God's move and if I got out of the way He could accomplish. I learned the Bible well and was taught all about the characters therein and the story of Redemption: I put my life upon the Rock. I'd be building a good foundation against the storms of life to come. And it has been so.
Righteousness is what I long for. Righteousness is what I need (God's.) Stuff can take a back seat to His Frontseat. Things and possessions just get in the way. Renouncing all for Christ's service even as a child I wanted to tell others what I found in knowing God and it wasn't always easy. My godly parents took me to Church every Sunday Wednesday, and Friday. Twice on Sunday. And I went forward often to the altar to pray. I received there counsel of the Lord: be devoted in heart, soul, mind, and strength with tongue, and count the cost, renounce, and follow Christ. I needed God and I was not a good sinner and I wanted to live for Christ determined.
By grace I've been saved, a certain salvation, and my anchor goes/enters within the veil, holds in me, and that by faith, not of myself nor of any good work or works, I'm saved, lest any boast. It's not about me but what Christ has done in His Finished Work because of Who He is.
Almighty God Most Holy Lord, glorious Almighty God: He is El Elyon (Most High God.) I read tracts or little synopsises of the Gospel and I began to see the plan of God better as a kid. It Seems like we won't soon forget that overdraft of God's Protection (the Cross and what it stands for,) if we do that separating from sin starting as a child which is Divinely important. We need to keep in our minds eye that Price for which we were bought and paid for and emotions will follow we being active and alert in Him: re: our love for God white hot fervent & foremost because this world would try to take that away, re: first love for Christ . We're just pilgrims here, God's peculiar people.
This world has an enemy, the devil and, satan is his other name. He's the prince and power of the air. Martin Luther, it's said, woke from sleep one night and saw Satan at his bed at the feet and quotedly said, "oh, it's you," and went back to sleep. Don't give attention to him nor treat him with disdain but with a healthy respect like a hot stove.
Ephesians says, "Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might." "Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand." Put on the Helmet, Sword, Shield, Belt, Shoes, Breastplate, and Prayer always with all supplication for all saints as that armor of God. We'll reap a harvest if we don't quit or get nervous nor weary in well doing, army. May you see the Savior' Blood applied to your life and find your favor in grace from God, happiness and joy in belonging to Him if you haven't done so already! Amen.
Thanks Lord for being there for me! How can I say thanks Lord God for the things You have done for me? I will take the cup of salvation and call upon the Name of God. Jesus is the Name above all Names, Beautiful Savior, Glorious Lord, Immanuel, God is with us. When I gave my heart to Christ I knew I'd be accused of being a goody-two-shoes but I determined I'd belong to God no matter what, believe God and His Kingdom, I'd seek even as a lad in Grade School with all my heart.

Have A Drink Of LIVING WATER!
Papa O my Papa! Abba! Daddy! These are endearing terms for one's inmost intimate relationship with their Father or for many their Heavenly Father! I encourage you to get to know Your Creator Who is Your Redeemer/Savior/King/Master/God! There are many names for God in the Bible revealing Who He Is in a Unique Righteous Holy Manner. Having made our universe with intelligent design and personally handcrafted his unique-among-all creation, mankind, He rested on the Seventh Day. Man was made a little lower than the angels for a time. He is though higher than animals in that He is free in His will to choose morally and spiritually at times with great specificity. But we know and science tells us man and woman came from one couple or one single ancestor-ancient.
We could say, matter and energy are conserved but science has told us that the atom can be split like in a hydrogen bomb. And so as it says in the books of Peter in the Bible, "the elements shall melt with fervent heat," and, "so, what manner of men ought we to be in all holiness and righteousness looking for the day of His (Messiah) coming."
By spreading the good news of Adam's helpless race finding a way of Salvation through the "Second Adam," we see how important a gravity God puts on His Kingdom being reverenced and His Son obeyed, Jesus, which His Name also means Joshua. We're hastening His Coming again as we honor His Logos, (being a bondslave of Him,) or Living Word, God dwelt among us, Immanual, God in flesh form: Jesus Christ. We come to see God's not angry with mankind because Jesus has won the victory; And He is victorious in rising from the dead and has specially called out His Saints from this world who through faith by grace please and obey Him. Do you think it strange that God raises the dead? However it's a narrow way God has made to Heaven (in Christ) crossing the great Gulf between man and Himself the Bible and Jesus say. The way to Hell is broad (wide) & paved with good intentions and one might argue they're good enough (for Heaven) without "being saved." But Jesus did meet all the requirements to be our perfect Lamb of God, and do you think God would go to all this trouble if it weren't right or needed? He obeyed God perfect, died on a Cross as predicted by Him, Arose from the dead, proving that He is the way, the truth, and the life, and that in John's Gospel, "all who are taught of the Father," come to Him! No one can make it to attain God's Standard of Holiness or Righteousness then. The only answer is Christ within: in the body, soul, heart, mind, and spiritual lifestyle. Will you this very hour confirm this before God on yourself His favor, by accepting the Gift of His Son's Sacrifice for the Blood taking away, the Redemption, of your sins, because He loves you!? You admit first you need it because you're sinful and only deserve hell. Heaven awaits! But after that, realize it's all of grace & so then show that you're thankful and grateful He did this (save you) by living for Him. Deny Yourself, take up your cross, and follow Him (Jesus Christ.) All the angels rejoice in Heaven because you did that. Claim the Holy Spirit to invest inside you to give you the pledge of Heaven, repent, and praise and love the Lord Your God with everything inside in a lifetime of Worship for its about Him not us!! Choose Life, choose the Son for your discipleship and Heaven as your purpose, and live with the awareness of the Son of God inside and your identity in Him, His righto life, His manner of life in living it in merciful kindness ministering, His lowly, His Death for our sins, His burial, His Resurrection, Ascension, Exaltation, and Supremacy over all things, so that we might be called His "brothers." And through you uniquely and through Corporately functioning with unction in Body of Christ, the Good News of the Gospel can be proclaimed and glorified and magnified with a corporate Voice in the Body of Christ, to lift up Christ. And like the blind man healed by Jesus in the book of John says, "all I know is once I was blind, now I see." Jesus changes lives. It start with the forgiveness of sins and the Blood that covers you. God is love I John 4:16.

You Can Choose Your Destiny; Heaven or Hell
Thanks Lord for being there for me! How can I say thanks Lord God for the things You have done for me? I will take the cup of salvation and call upon the Name of God. Jesus is the Name above all Names, Beautiful Savior, Glorious Lord, Immanuel, God is with us.

! We sit with Him, victors, not victims in the Heavenlies at the Throne.
As perfect Lamb of God sacrifice then, Jesus' Blood was (shed) so we could be free. Now I'm forgiven. Jesus keeps giving and giving. Jesus promises never to leave nor forsake. Love is not love until it goes through a test & until it's pure gold and dross is removed, Christlike. God wants us to choose by faith and our will to belong to Him, but not by force.
It's a Gift, Eternal Life, and we must accept it freely. Make that prayer to know God and obey the Son. Justification happens. You begin to really live like your alive from the dead & wholly alive to God. Your passion changes to righteous. The Holy Spirit is your gift when you do these things. In God's timing all things become beautiful. God is good. "Occupy until I come," Jesus said, on the offensive winnning battles on your knees.
"Trust him. And when you have done that, you are living the life of grace. No matter what happens to you in the course of that trusting — no matter how many waverings you may have, no matter how many suspicions that you have bought a poke with no pig in it, no matter how much heaviness and sadness your lapses, vices, indispositions, and bratty whining may cause you — you simply believe that Somebody Else,by his death and resurrection, has made it all right, and you just say thank you and shut up." - Robert Capon
As we partner together with God, although The Battle Is The Lord', we shall wear a crown bright, shiny should the Lord tarry, because fine linen is the righteous acts of the Saints, (Haggios, in Greek) "called out ones." God wants to be among us Revelation 21 tells. There's a supper of marriage Christ will have over us, His Bride, and we will have robes washed in the Blood of Himself, the Lamb of God. We will lay our Stephanos, wreaths at Jesus feet and worship! He will give rewards and wipe our tears away! Heaven is where God will wipe away all tears from our eyes and He goes on to say, "There will be no death, nor crying, nor any pain." "I make all things new." "I am the beginning and the end." "I will lead him who us thirsty to living fountions of waters." Amen.

No matter what happens to you in the course of that trusting — no matter how many waverings you may have, no matter how many suspicions that you have bought a poke with no pig in it, no matter how much heaviness and sadness your lapses, vices, indispositions, and bratty whining may cause you — you simply believe that Somebody Else,by his death and resurrection, has made it all right, and you just say thank you and shut up." - Robert Capon
As we partner together with God, although The Battle Is The Lord', we shall wear a crown bright, shiny should the Lord tarry, because fine linen is the righteous acts of the Saints, (Haggios, in Greek) "called out ones." God wants to be among us Revelation 21 tells. There's a supper of marriage Christ will have over us, His Bride, and we will have robes washed in the Blood of Himself, the Lamb of God. We will lay our Stephanos, wreaths at Jesus feet and worship! He will give rewards and wipe our tears away! Heaven is where God will wipe away all tears from our eyes and He goes on to say, "There will be no death, nor crying, nor any pain." "I make all things new." "I am the beginning and the end." "I will lead him who us thirsty to living fountions of waters." Amen.
Live for Him. DC 6/10/2011

We Proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord and ourselves bondslaves for your sakes!
Thanks Lord for being there for me! How can I say thanks Lord God for the things You have done for me? I will take the cup of salvation and call upon the Name of God. Jesus is the Name above all Names, Beautiful Savior, Glorious Lord, Immanuel, God is with us. When I gave my heart to Christ I knew I'd be accused of being a goody-two-shoes but I determined I'd belong to God believe God and His Kingdom I'd seek even as a lad in Grade School with all my heart.
I'd try to not let my left hand know what my right is doing as Christ said about giving but live commending my conscience to God and every man's conscience as He gave me ability in expressing the Life from God within giving my life for His service. Being bondslaves ta Christ and knowing God at an early age, I tried to tell others about finding Christ inside and what that meant. I heard and felt abuse from Jews and Catholics alike but I looked for common ground, stayed the course, and remembered it's important to talk to God about someone before I talked to someone about God. I wanted to be a disciple of Jesus' in truth not just an outward Christian. I knew if I learned the Bible well and was taught all about the characters in it and the story of Redemption thereof I'd be building a good foundation against the storms of life to come. And it has been so.
Righteousness is what I long for. Righteousness is what I need (God's.) Stuff can take a back seat. Things and possessions just get in the way. Renouncing this all for Christ's service even as a child I wanted to tell others what I found in knowing God and it wasn't always easy. My godly parents took me to Church every Sunday and Wednesday. Twice on Sunday. And I went forward often to the altar to pray. I received there counsel from the Lord: be devoted in heart, soul, mind, and tongue, and count the cost. I needed God and I was not a good sinner and I wanted to live for Christ determined.
By grace I've been saved, a certain salvation, and my anchor enters within the veil, holds in me, and that by faith, not of myself nor any good works, lest any boast. It's not about me but what Christ has done in His Finished Work because of Who He is.
Almighty God Most Holy Lord, glorious Almighty God He is. I read tracts or little synopsises of the Gospel and I began to see the plan of God better as a kid. It Seems like we won't soon forget that overdraft of Protection of Who He is (the Cross and what it stands for,) if we do that separating from sin as a child. We need to keep in our minds eye that Price for which we were bought and paid and emotions will follow we being active and alert: re: our love for God white hot fervent & foremost because this world would try to take that away. We're just pilgrims here, God's peculiar people.
This world has an enemy, the devil and, satan is his other name. He's the prince and power of the air.
Ephesians says, "Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might." "Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand." Put on Helmet, Sword, Shield, Belt, Shoes, Breastplate, and Prayer always with all supplication for all saints as that armor. We'll reap a harvest if we don't quit or get nervous in well doing, army. May you see the Savior' Blood applied to your life and find your happiness and joy in belonging to Him if you haven't done so already!
It says in Hebrews, "without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins."
All it takes is a prayer to God and commitment to Christ to admit that you're a sinner, a falling short (of God's glory,) sinner, and confessing God's love, one accepts Christ as individual Savior and Lord from sin. You then follow Him abiding in Him, repenting, bearing fruit, then being a witness for Him. You reach for the Sceptor which is His, (His Righteousness.)
Love God and let Him know that you love Him and tell everyone else, proclaiming "release," that "you're free! of this world: the lust if the eyes, lust of the flesh, and the pride of life." You're not in it for a problem-free life but in a ballooning crucified consecration to belong to Jesus more, you now love God, hate sin. Have that encounter with Jesus in God. Jesus said, "No man can come to Me unless the Father draw him." Jesus draws all men to Himself as He is lifted high. As born again we're hungry to do the next right thing. This is background.
Jesus is that Davidic Covenant Keeper, Messiah. He fulfilled the Law by actually keeping it thoroughly by love and obedience. He went beyond obeying to be pleasing also the Father God. He loved God and His fellow man perfectly. He is therefore able to save to the uttermost all that come unto God by Him seeing He ever lives to make intercession for them. He lives by the power of an indestructible life after His Resurrection. Sin's wage is death but death could not keep Him! We sit with Him, victors, not victims in the Heavenlies at the Throne.
As perfect Lamb of God sacrifice then, Jesus' Blood was (shed) so we could be free. Now I'm forgiven. Jesus keeps giving and giving. Jesus promises never to leave nor forsake. Love is not love until it goes through a test & until it's pure gold and dross is removed, Christlike. God wants us to choose by faith and our will to belong to Him, but not by force.
It's a Gift, Eternal Life, and we must accept it freely. Make that prayer to know God and obey the Son. Justification happens. You begin to really live like your alive from the dead & wholly alive to God. Your passion changes to righteous. The Holy Spirit is your gift when you do these things. In God's timing all things become beautiful. God is good. "Occupy until I come," Jesus said, on the offensive winnning battles on your knees.
