Jesus will set you free...

The truth will set you free…

 

Promise divine which never can fail…

 

Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are you my disciples indeed; And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free...John 8:31-32

The truth will set you free from the lie you do not need Jesus, that stealing is not sin, that bearing false witness is not sin, that coveting is not sin, that adultery is not sin, that not honoring your dad or mom is not sin, that murder is not sin, that blaspheming is not sin, or idolatry is not sin…that you do not need Jesus…to have other gods…that not loving your neighbor is not a sin.

 

Jesus is the Truth which sets us free from evil…

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me...John 14:6.

Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead so you and I could be free to practice all the good God intended us to fulfill our plan and purpose. You do not have to lie…steal…murder…covet…commit adultery…blaspheme…ignore your mom and dad’s needs…commit idolatry…have other sources (gods)…you can live your life and love your neighbor as yourself and be blessed for it. You do not have to out scheme your neighbor you can be free to love your neighbor because Jesus died and was raised from the dead.

 

Jesus died and was raised so Christians are free to love God and our neighbor…

Owe no man anything, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. Love worketh no ill to his neighbor: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law...Romans 13:8-10.

 

Have you fulfilled the Law by loving God and your neighbor as yourself…yes or no?

 

Prayer

Father please forgive us for not loving You or our neighbors as ourselves and help us to begin to love…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Hear the Gospel of Christ...the good news of Christ

A Good News devotional of just scripture…Quotes from the New Testament of Jesus Christ…as it is written…

 

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith… But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him… For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. (Rom 1:16-17 Heb 11:6 Rom 10:13-17)

 

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the scriptures… For God so loved the world, that he gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved… Wherefore He is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, seeing he ever lives to make intercession for them… Though He were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which He suffered; And being made perfect, He became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey Him (1Co 15:1-4 Joh 3:16-17 Heb 7:25 Heb 5:8-9)

 

Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind blows where it lists, and thou hear the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goes: so is every one that is born of the Spirit… I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am He, ye shall die in your sins… Afterward He (Jesus) appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen Him after he was risen. And He said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, He was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen. (Joh 8:24 Joh 3:5-8 Mar 16:14-20)

 

Father please show us mercy and cover the faithful with grace, mercy, peace, joy, love, and virtue…In Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Some people are like quicksand...

We must recover some from the devil’s snare with the truth but not get snared…

 

Develop a Character fit for teaching God’s truth…

And the Lord's servant must not strive (be contentious), but be gentle towards all, apt (able) to teach, forbearing (being patient), in meekness (obedience) correcting them that oppose themselves (reprove or rebuke); if peradventure (perhaps) God may give them (grant) 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 2:24-26.

…To the pure all things are pure: but to them that are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled. They profess that they know God; but by their works they deny him, being abominable (refuses to come to Christ way to be cleansed), and disobedient (rebellious), and unto every good work reprobate (without faithfulness)...Titus 1:15-16.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places...Ephesians 6:12.

…but shun (avoid…stay away from) foolish questionings (capable of choosing but ask questions instead of choosing to obey the truth), and genealogies, and strife, and fighting (quarrelling…debating) about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. A factious (heretic…sows division) man after a first and second admonition refuse; knowing that such a one is perverted, and sins, being self-condemned...Titus 3:9-11.

 

If they are not a Christian then we are teaching those caught up in the devil’s doctrine how to untangle themselves from the lies they have been taught through philosophies or their heritage or their teachers...

In the above scriptures…we see people are carried away by forces or teachers that are controlling them…and as a teacher or Christian which cares about their soul, we must reprove them without erring in obedience to the truth. Christians believe the words from scriptures are pure and must be held in the highest esteem even obeyed through the point of death. Many do not believe the words from the New Testament are pure and inspired or are from God Himself. We must develop a character which remains pure while leading other to the truth of God’s word.

 

Prayer

Father please create my conscience and renew the truth in me help me to be obedient not rebellious or silly…please meet my soul’s deepest needs for not being a heretic or false teacher but a faithful Christian…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
