Divine Call for Justice, Integrity, and Wisdom

Thus says the LORD, "Execute judgment and righteousness, and deliver him who is robbed out of the oppressor's hand. And do no wrong, do no violence to the stranger, the fatherless, or the widow, nor shed innocent blood in this place… These six things the LORD hates; yea, seven are an abomination unto Him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, A heart that plots wicked imaginations, feet that are swift in running to evil, A false witness who speaks lies, and he who sows discord among brethren… Behold, I am sending you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore, be wise as serpents and harmless as doves. (Jer 22:3… Pro 6:16-19… Mat 10:16)


Living Righteously in a Challenging World: A Call to Shine as Lights

For it is God Who works in you both to will and to do according to His good pleasure. Do all things without complaints and disputes; So that you may be blameless and without offense, innocent children of God in the midst of a crooked and perverted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world… For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil works. Do you desire not to be afraid of the authority? Then practice good, and you will have praise from it; For he is a servant of God to you for good. But if you are practicing evil, have fear! For he does not wear the sword in vain because he is a servant of God, an avenger for wrath to the one who is practicing evil… Do not render to anyone evil for evil, but be prepared to do what is right in the sight of all men. If possible, as much as is your part, be at peace with all men. Beloved, do not avenge yourselves; rather, leave this to God's wrath; for it is written, " 'Vengeance is Mine! I will recompense,' says the Lord." Therefore, if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink; for in doing this you will be heaping coals of fire on his head. Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good… (Php 2:13-15… Rom 13:3-4… Rom 12:17-21)


The Role of Peacemakers in Upholding Divine Principles

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. (Mat 5:9)

  1. Peace is something you do not say…words of Truth can create peace but must be said...in Truth and Love…violence creates more violence…but the only way to end violence when words will not be received for peace is to meet a violence with violence.

  2. Just treatment of the enemies of peace…Jesus said to bless your enemies not curse them…not to join the enemies of peace but to feed and water your enemies by doing so you will reap coals of fire on their head.

  3. The Best a soul can do is what is right by our Creator when he learns the Truth.

  4. A peacemaker desires…to harm no soul including their own…to keep the innocent innocent…the harmless harmless…and to shed no innocent blood.

  5. Peacemaking stops the evil doer and keeps the innocent harmless and the harmless innocent. Peacemakers must exercise self-control and not act not out of self-will but out of love knowing love does not work ill-will towards its neighbor or enemies but seeks peace and what is best for all innocent souls.

The plan and purpose of a parable…

 

The plan and purpose of a parable…the earthly truth laid beside a heavenly truth…to aid in understanding and fulfilling your plan and purpose in the kingdom of God…

 

And the disciples came, and said unto (Jesus) Him, Why speak You unto them in parables?

 

…And Jesus answered and said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. For whosoever has (faithfulness with the truth), to him shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but whosoever has not (has no faithfulness with the truth), from him shall be taken away even that which he has. Therefore speak I to them in parables; because seeing they see not (they refuse to live the truth they have seen), and hearing they hear not (they heard the truth but deny its existence teaching their opinions), neither do they understand (understand the truth or why they deny the truth)…

…And unto them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall in no wise understand; And seeing ye shall see, and shall in no wise perceive: (they have seen the truth and heard the truth but refuse to understand God’s will and do it…they rather teach the commandments of men not God) For this people's heart is waxed gross (they are abominable), And their ears are dull of hearing (they are used to another lie from a man), And their eyes they have closed (they have been hurt by the lies and actions of their teachers)

…Lest haply they should perceive with their eyes, And hear with their ears, And understand with their heart, And should turn again (try to draw close to God through obeying the truth) And I should heal them. But blessed are your (Jesus’s disciples) eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear. For verily I say unto you, that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which ye (you all…y’all…lol) see, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye hear, and heard them not. (Mat 13:10-17 ASV)

 

Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like unto a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: which indeed is less than all seeds; but when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the heaven come and lodge in the branches thereof. (Mat 13:31-32 ASV)

Prayer

Father please open our eyes and ears and hearts to understand the truth and be wise with the truth so we can be healed and not hurt again by the teaching and actions of those who are not You and Your Only Fathered Son Jesus…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Do not judge but teach better...

The child of God…said do not judge me but help me be better

And do not judge others, so that you yourself will not be judged in any way. Do not condemn others, so that you will not be condemned in any way. Forgive, and you shall be forgiven. Give, and it shall be given to you. Good measure, pressed down and shaken together and running over, shall they give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you mete out, it shall be measured again to you." Then He spoke a parable to them, saying, "Is a blind man able to lead a blind man? Will not both fall into the ditch?... (Luk 6:37-39)


There is only One Door into Heaven…

…For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ so that each one may receive according to the things done in his body—what he has practiced, whether good or evil… (2Co 5:10)


Have you ever met Jesus in judgment…

…But the cowardly, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone; which is the second death. (Rev 21:8 AFV)


Prayer

Father please meet our soul's deepest needs and search us to see our souls deepest needs for You, Your Son, and the Holy Spirit...we know we will never hunger and thirst because we believe in Jesus...in Jesus of Nazareth's name amen.
