Beware of wolves in sheep’s clothing…false prophets...

Beware of wolves in sheep’s clothing…false prophets...

But there arose false prophets also among the people, as among you also there shall be false teachers, who shall privily bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master that bought them (you ever heard someone say Jesus did not do something the bible said He did do?), bringing upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their lascivious (bad lusts) doings; by reason of whom the way of the truth shall be evil spoken of...2 Peter 2:1-2.

even he, whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceit of unrighteousness for them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God sends them a working of error, that they should believe a lie: that they all might be judged who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness...2 Thessalonians 2:9-12.

But foolish and ignorant questionings refuse, knowing that they gender strife. And the Lord's servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt to teach, forbearing, in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure (perhaps) God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth, and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him unto his will...2 Timothy 2:23-26.

 

We have to have a love of the truth in order to discern a liar’s teaching. Jesus promised Christians we will know the truth and the truth will set us free…John 8:32. Jesus said He is the way the truth and the life…John 14:6. Jesus said the devil is the first liar…listen…You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father it is your will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and stands not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof. But because I say the truth, ye believe me not...John 8:44-45. Having a love of the truth and practicing the truth is the only way to survive a lie and a liar.

 

We must have a thus it is written for all we do. We must have a Jesus said so we can practice the truth without error in judgement. Jesus said we have to love Him the spirit of Truth more than our family or our friends. Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. He that loveth me not keepeth not my words: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's who sent me...John 14:23-24. Do you have an unquenchable thirst for the truth…Jesus said blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness for they will be filled.

 

 

Prayer

Father please increase our love of the truth and help us be filled with the love of what is good right and true please meet our soul’s deepest needs and we renounce satan and sin please grant us repentance in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

The Blessed life of character...

Attitudes to develop and cultivate…for a blessed Character

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven…blessed are those who think I cannot do it without You God…is your attitude I cannot live my life without you God?

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted…those who mourn over their sins and circumstances to God will find comfort. Blessed are the broken hearted who realize they sin against God.


Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth…blesses are the obedient to God for they shall inherit the earth. The word meek means like a horse with raw power remaining obedient to its reigns or master.


Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.


Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.


Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God…when you see the purity of actions you see God’s will.


Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called sons of God…peace is something you do with others in action…it does not happen by doing nothing.


Have you a broken and contrite heart…God will not despise you. In other words are you poor in spirit and mourning over your sin and circumstances? Are you practicing the truth out of devotion to God remaining faithful to the truth or obedient? Are you wanting what is right from God…you will be filled. Have you forgiven…then you will be forgiven…are looking for God’s will and remaining pure? Are you reconciling or working peace among men and God?


You have a plan and purpose in Christ…He is calling you along to His side and wants nothing but the best for you. When we cultivate and desire these attitudes then Jesus blesses us.


Prayer

Father please grant unto us the character we need to be blessed and faithful to the truth…please meet our souls deepest need and heal us from our past mistakes…help us to reconcile with others and especially you…we forgive all wrongs done to us…help us to walk in peace with others and especially Your peace…let Your will be done for it is best for our soul and life…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

There is a New Agreement between God and creation…

There is a New Agreement between God and creation…

Having then a great high priest, who hath passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we have not a High Priest that cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but one that hath been in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore draw near with boldness unto the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace to help us in time of need...Hebrews 4:14-16. I exhort therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, be made for all men; for kings and all that are in high place; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and gravity. This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; who would have all men to be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, one Mediator also between God and men, himself man, Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all; the testimony to be borne in its own times...1 Timothy 2:1-6. For we must all be made manifest before the judgment-seat of Christ; that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he hath done, whether it be good or bad...2 Corinthians 5:10.


Did you know there is a New Agreement between God and creation…

The New Testament (agreement) of Christ has been revealed by Jesus’s apostles and the Holy Spirit. The New Agreement was purchased with the precious blood of Jesus who died on the cross and was raised from the dead by the Father as proof His sacrifice was accepted. Jesus will reveal the truth to you and all you need to do is practice the truth revealed. Jesus and His teachings all reflect the greatest commandments to love God with all of your heart, mind, soul, spirit, and strength and to love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus will never ask you to lie, steal, covet, or anything immoral, but says… Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled...Matthew 5:6. Do you want to be right with the Creator and fellow man ? Then follow Jesus He will reveal the truth to you so you can be right with both God and fellow man.


Jesus said…

All things have been delivered unto Me of my Father: and no one knows the Son, save the Father; neither doth any know the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son wills to reveal Him. Come unto Me, all you that labor and are heavy laden (burdens), and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek (obedient) and lowly (humble) in heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light...Matthew 11:27-30. Jesus offers a light and easy yoke as you learn the truth and begin to practice the truth He reveals to you. Will you agree to take on you the teachings of Jesus to learn of Him so you can have rest for your soul…yes or no? Do you believe Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead…yes or no? Have you been baptized…yes or no?


Prayer

Creator please grant us repentance and reconciliation with You and fellow man…please reveal the truth to us so we can learn to practice Your Only Fathered Son’s teaching…please grant us a sound mind and meet our soul’s deepest needs administer to us a prescription remedy and cure for our lives and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from the evil one…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
