Who is Jesus brother or sister or mother…

Who is Jesus brother or sister or mother…

While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him. Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother...Matthew 12:46-50.


Whosoever does the will of God the same is my brother…sister…mother…you want to be in the family with Jesus…then do His Father’s will. What is the Father’s will…what is the most important thing to do...becoming a Christian through baptism?


Getting people to become a Christian through sharing God’s word…you may not know a sermon but you know what you have done to be saved do you not? You can invite to church…share God’s word you obeyed to become a child of God…make a phone call to someone who does know the word well enough to communicate how to become a Christian...


Message of The Death Burial and Resurrection of Jesus the Christ of Nazareth:

You ever been baptized into Christ; do you believe that Jesus of Nazareth died on a cross and was raised three days later and that Jesus did so willingly so He could reconcile you to your Creator...yes or no? Jesus Christ is the only Fathered of our Creator the Father of All, the Great I am of all that Is...the only man God ever Fathered...the Only begotten Son of God. Do you believe Jesus died and made a way for all your wrongs to be forgiven and a way for you to learn too never do evil again by dying on the cross and being raised from the dead...Yes or No? Jesus of Nazareth, will never lie to you and promises in Matthew 5:6, Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness…they will be filled. Will you ask Jesus of Nazareth to confirm this truth to you? Yes or No?


It is written…

The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou do, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him,

...Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 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...John 3:2-8

...And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation. (16) He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieves (chooses to ignore the message of Jesus dying and being raised from the dead to reconcile you) shall be condemned...Mar 16:15-16.


How to baptize a person in total immersion for the remission of sins and to receive the gift of the Holy Spirit:

What to say…

“In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, by His Authority, I baptize you in the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit for the remission of sins and to receive the gift of the Holy Spirit based on your confession that Jesus Christ is the only Fathered (Son of God) of our Creator, the Savior of mankind…”

Then totally baptize them in water, watching the bubbles they not go up the nose if a creek or river or sea, (their head upstream not downstream) then after plunging completely then raise them.

And then say, “Go and walk in Spirit and Truth.”


Prayer

Father please meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal us from our sins that we may prosper and be in health as our soul prospers…and help us to do your will…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

You cannot be good in God’s eyes without being cleansed by Jesus work of the cross…

You cannot be good in God’s eyes without being cleansed by Jesus work of the cross…

Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned...Matthew 12:33-37.

 

Once you hear about Jesus Christ and the freedom from evil He has provided…His life…death…and resurrection…then you are faced with a choice. You can join Jesus Christ by being baptized and becoming a Christian or you can choose to go your way. Jesus when accused of doing these miracles by the power of another told the people to make the tree either good…all for God or evil. He told them to make themselves good or fit for the kingdom of God or make themselves bad fir for themselves.

 

How can a man make himself good…do you want to be good not bad…yes or no? In order to be good we must be forgiven by God who is the source of Good and Holy. Have you ever lied…stole…murdered…coveted another’s…neglected your dad or mom…you ever said God’s name wrong…ever worshipped an idol…committed adultery… then you need forgiveness from God…if you want to be good then do not do these things.

 

Jesus will reveal the truth to you and all you must do is what is good, right, and true. Jesus will never ask you to do a wrong or evil thing. Jesus will never ask you to lie or steal or anything evil. He will always ask you to do what is right nor wrong. His teachings are found in the New Testament of Christ…if you will agree to read the New Testament then Jesus will reveal the truth you need to know to you and you will find rest for your souls. So you can learn what is good right and true.

 

Jesus said…

Come unto Me, all you that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of Me (read the New Testament of Christ); for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light...Matthew 11:28-30.

 

Prayer

Father please grant us repentance where necessary and help us to learn of Jesus so we can discern what is good…right…and true…please meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal us from our sinful ways so we may prosper and be in health as our soul prospers in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

We do not change the message the message changes us.

We do not change the message the message changes us.

At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in Your sight. All things are delivered unto Me of my Father: and no man knows the Son, but the Father; neither knows any man the Father, save the Son, and He to whomsoever the Son will reveal Him…

…Come unto me, all you that labor and are heavy laden, 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 11:25-30.

 

Jesus speaking of His teachings said they were revealed unto babes not knowing religious teachings well…people who did not follow the religious leaders blindly believing everything they taught. For many of the Pharisees and Scribes…teachers of the law said Jesus was not the Christ and tried to trip Him up in His words and actions. Jesus speaking of His disciples said they were babes. The disciples seen the miracles and refused to listen to the doctrines of the leaders and followed Jesus because He is the Christ and was doing powerful miracles. They knew Jesus was special and from God…even eventually God’s own Son.

Jesus told them and anyone else to take His teaching of the Truth upon them…take my yoke…a yoke takes two oxen and makes them work as if they are one force. Jesus is saying if you take His teaching of Truth…His yoke…upon you then you and Him will be practicing the Truth together as one. Jesus said His teaching of the Truth is a light and easy burden to bear...to live out.

 

These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that you may know that you have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. And this is the confidence that we have in Him, that, if we ask any thing according to His will, He hears us: And if we know that He hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him...1 John 5:13-15.

 

Is it hard to tell the Truth…yes or no? Is it hard to love your neighbor as yourself in doing good…yes or no? If we take His teaching of the Truth upon us then we find rest for our souls…we can have the prayers we say answered as long as you practice the truth. By putting Jesus first and practicing the Truth He reveals to us then we can have answered prayer if it is according to His will…loving our neighbor as ourself…then we have answered prayer.

 

Prayer

Father please keep us free and safe from harm…help us in our persecution from your enemies and our own…and meet our soul’s deepest needs for freedom to practice the truth and provide for our families…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
