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.

A simple test to see if you despise/hate God or love/hold to God…   Simple Test No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one (Jesus), and love the other (world); or else he will hold to one (Jesus), and despise the other (world). You cannot serve God and mammon (this world)...Matthew 6:24.   Who do you do it for? Love your neighbor as yourself… Do you despise the lust of the flesh…Do you hate the lust of the flesh…or do you gratify the lust of the flesh by holding to it or loving the flesh more than God? Do you despise the lust of the eyes…Do you hate the lust of the eyes…or do you satisfy the lusts of your eyes…Do you hold to the lust of the eyes more than God…thinking you are blessed with what you see or Do you love the lust of the eyes thinking you are blessed because you have what your eyes see? Do you despise yourself…Do you hate yourself…or do you put yourself second and your brothers third and your neighbors fourth? Or Do you put self-last and sacrifice to serve God? Do you love your neighbor or do you love yourself… Do you despise having to help your neighbor or do you rejoice in God is using you to be an avenue of grace towards your neighbor? Are you sharing what God has given you or do you charge for God’s will to be done?   Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the vainglory (the self-glory) of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abides forever...1 John 2:15-17… …Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled...Matthew 5:6... …Owe no man anything, save to love one another: for he that loveth his neighbor hath fulfilled the law. For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not covet, and if there be any other commandment, it is summed up in this word, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. Love worketh no ill to his neighbor: love therefore is the fulfilment of the law...Romans 13:8-10… …For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil: which some reaching after have been led astray from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness...1 Timothy 6:10-11.   Prayer Father please forgive and convert me from the love of the world…or holding on to the world…that I may learn to put You first and serve You and be blessed…please change my heart and mind and direction so that I may be fit for heaven my home…I truly have nothing but You…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Have you ever stolen something given or belongs to another soul…yes or no? By stealing another’s blessing or possession, you are making yourself in your own imaginations image. You are taking that which God has given to another and this is also coveting…wanting what God has not given you. So when you steal you are committing two sins. Where coveting is the heart or the beginning of stealing…you want what is not yours…and stealing is the action of taking it…either it be by power…or circumstance…or just simply taking it with your hands. Stealing is wrong and will send you to hell. Coveting is wrong and will send you to hell. It takes both to steal or do you lie…because you covet…so you can trick someone into giving and thus have broken 3 commandments in order to steal that which you desire? Do you say false statements in order to obtain…this too is a form of coveting and thus stealing. Any sin will send you to hell…telling false statements…through wanting what they have…wanting what they have…or even the act of stealing will send you to hell. May all that you have stolen be made useless or be restored to one who you stole it from…perhaps ask for mercy so you will be saved…and you both be blessed…one for forgiving and one for repenting.   It is written… …Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing that is good, that he may have whereof to give to him that hath need...Ephesians 4:28. …Owe no man anything, save to love one another: for he that loveth his neighbor hath fulfilled the law. For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not covet, and if there be any other commandment, it is summed up in this word, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. Love worketh no ill to his neighbor: love therefore is the fulfilment of the law...Romans 13:8-10. If what they have is then in a positive manner…and you desire to be like Jesus then why not ask Jesus to be like Him. Did not Jesus say as It is written… …Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: for every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, who, if his son shall ask him for a loaf, will give him a stone; or if he shall ask for a fish, will give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask Him...Matthew 7:7-11. Prayer Father please create us whatever it is we need so we will not covet after the ungodly and so we will not have to steal in order to eat or to obtain the necessities of life…You promise enough and we ask for enough…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.   Pause for Prayer and Devotional a Wellsaid Christian Devotional about the teachings of Jesus… https://www.anopenbiblestudy.com/blog-by-ben-the-friend   #benjaminbrianstewart #Love #Christianity #Faith #Bible #Jesus #Prayer #Art #ChristianLife #Gospel #ChristianInspiration #Salvation #ChristianCommunity #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography

Have you taken advantage of the At-one-ment through Jesus…are you at one with our Creator?   A message of the atonement of Jesus Christ of Nazareth from the Holy Scriptures… This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior; 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 2:3-6. For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten (Fathered) Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God sent not the Son into the world to judge the world; but that the world should be saved through Him...John 3:16-17. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness; but is longsuffering to you-ward, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance...2 Peter 3:9. …That they should seek God, if haply they might feel after Him and find Him, though He (God)  is not far from each one of us: for in Him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain even of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring. Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and device of man. The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked; but now He (God) commands men that they should all everywhere repent: inasmuch as he hath appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he hath ordained; whereof He hath given assurance unto all men, in that He hath raised Him from the dead...Acts 17:27-31. …Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead…He is the stone which was set at nought of you the builders, which was made the head of the corner. And in none other (soul) is there salvation: for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, wherein we must be saved...Acts 4:10-12 Though He (Jesus Christ of Nazareth) was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which He suffered; and having been made perfect, He became unto all them that obey Him the author of eternal salvation; named of God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek....Hebrews 5:8-10. How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish unto God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? And for this cause He (Jesus Christ of Nazareth) is the mediator of a new covenant (agreement), that a death having taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant (agreement), they that have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance...Hebrews 9:14-15.         Jesus Christ of Nazareth said… All things have been delivered unto Me of my Father: and no one knows the Son, save the Father; neither doth any (soul) know the Father, save the Son, and He to whomsoever the Son wills to reveal him. Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke (Truth) 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 therefore said to those Jews that had believed Him, If you abide in my word, then are you truly my disciples; and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free...John 8:31-32. But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, shall He not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles (unbelievers) seek; for your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things. But seek ye first His kingdom, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Be not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof...Matthew 6:30-34.   I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. And He (Jesus) spoke this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came seeking fruit thereon, and found none. And he said unto the Vinedresser, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why doth it also cumber the ground? And he answering saith unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung (fertilize) it: and if it bear fruit thenceforth, well; but if not, thou shalt cut it down...Luke 13:5-9. Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except one be born of water and 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 anew. The wind blowsh where it will, and thou hear the voice thereof, but knowest not whence it cometh, and whither it goes: so is every one that is born of the Spirit...John 3:5-8. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieves (chooses to disobey or rebel) shall be condemned...Mark 16:16.   Jesus answered, The first (of all commandments) is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God, the Lord is one: and you shalt love the Lord thy God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength. The second is this, You shalt love your neighbor as yourself. There is none other commandment greater than these...Mark 12:29-31. If ye love Me, you will keep my commandments...John 14:15. And Jesus came to them and spoke unto them, saying, All authority hath been given unto me in heaven and on earth. Go you therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world...Matthew 28:18-20.       So what must you do… And Peter said unto them, Repent you (all), and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him. And with many other words he testified, and exhorted them, saying, Save yourselves from this crooked generation. They then that received his word were baptized: and there were added unto them in that day about three thousand souls...Acts 2:38-41. because if thou shalt confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shalt be saved: for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on Him shall not be put to shame...Romans 10:9-11 And now why tarry you? arise, and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on His name...Acts 22:16.   Have you been born of the water and the Spirit…yes or no? Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is begotten (Fathered) of God: and whosoever loveth Him that begat (Fathered) loveth Him also that is begotten (was Fathered) of Him. Hereby we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and do His commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments: and His commandments are not grievous (hard). For whatsoever is begotten (born) of God overcomes the world: and this is the victory that hath overcome the world, even our faith. And who is he that overcomes the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? This is He that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and with the blood. And it is the Spirit that bears witness, because the Spirit is the truth. For there are three who bear witness, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and the three agree in one...1 John 5:1-8. And this is love, that we should walk after His commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that ye should walk in it. For many deceivers are gone forth into the world, even they that confess not that Jesus Christ cometh in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist...2 John 1:6-7. Whosoever goes onward and abides not in the teaching of Christ, hath not God: he that abides in the teaching, the same hath both the Father and the Son...2 John 1:9.   Do you believe Jesus Christ of Nazareth died on the cross and was raised from the dead…yes or no? and Do you believe Jesus Christ became the Author of Salvation and instituted a New Agreement or the New Covenant of Christ…yes or no? Have you put on Christ in baptism…yes or no? Will you be baptized so that you can be saved…yes or no? Do you want to be saved from eternal punishment in the lake of fire…yes or no?   Prayer Father please help us in our faith and confirm these truths to us so we can prosper and be in health as our soul prospers…please lead us in the truth so we may be saved…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.   Pause for Prayer and Devotional a Wellsaid Christian Devotional about the teachings of Jesus… https://www.anopenbiblestudy.com/blog-by-ben-the-friend   #benjaminbrianstewart #Love #Christianity #Faith #Bible #Jesus #Prayer #Art #ChristianLife #Gospel #ChristianInspiration #Salvation #ChristianCommunity #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography

God does not want shares of your life…He wants a Controlling interest.   Do you obey Jesus…yes or no? For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten (Fathered) Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God sent not the Son into the world to judge the world; but that the world should be saved through Him…though He was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which He suffered; and having been made perfect, He became unto all them that obey Him the author of eternal salvation…Now it was not written for His sake alone, that it was reckoned unto Him; but for our sake also, unto whom it shall be reckoned, who believe on Him that raised Jesus our Lord from the dead, who was delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification. (...John 3:16-17...Hebrews 5:8-9...Romans 4:23-25)   Are you Just-as-I’d never sinned…yes or no…? Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ…Romans 5:1. The good man out of his good treasure bringeth forth good things: and the evil man out of his evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. And 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 12:35-37. Every one therefore who shall confess me before men, him will I also confess before my Father who is in heaven. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father who is in heaven....Matthew 10:32-33   Have you been baptized in order to be saved or justified before God…yes or no? And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him...Acts 2:38-39   If you obey the same message then you will receive the same promise…Have you been baptized for the remission of sins and to receive the gift of the Holy Spirit…yes or no?   Will you be baptized…yes or no?

The three temptations of Jesus by satan… …And the tempter came and said unto Him, If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread. But He answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God. …Then the devil taketh Him into the holy city; and He set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and saith unto Him, If You art the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and, On their hands they shall bear thee up, Lest haply You dash thy foot against a stone. Jesus said unto him, Again it is written, you shalt not make trial of the Lord thy God. …Again, the devil taketh Him unto an exceeding high mountain, and shows Him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; and He said unto Him, All these things will I give thee, if You wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, you shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt you serve. …Then the devil leaves Him; and behold, angels came and ministered unto Him...Matthew 4:3-11.   The first temptation of Jesus… If you be the Son of God…then command these stones to become bread… Satan used the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes to tempt Jesus along with the pride of self in life…Jesus after having fasted for forty days was hungry…Satan used the lust of the flesh…hence making stones bread appealed to Him. Satan used the lust of the eyes…hence looking at bread when hungry appealed to Him…Satan used the pride of self in life…hence if You be the Son of God then make…Jesus never fell to the first temptation but quoted what is written…Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.   The Second temptation of Jesus If You be the Son of God cast yourself down for He shall give His angels charge concerning You and on their hands they shall bear You up… Satan again used the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes to tempt Jesus alone with the pride or self in life…Jesus was tempted by the lust of the flesh in…He could have wanted to feel a Holy angel’s presence or hands…Jesus was tempted to with the lust of the eyes…He could have wanted to see the unseen angels…Jesus was tempted by the pride or self in life because they could have saved Him and obeyed Him…Jesus never fell to the second temptation…but quoted what is written…You shall not make a trial of the Lord your God. In my words, He said do not jump in the fire Satan then ask God to save you.   The third temptation of Jesus All these things…the glory and the kingdoms of the world…will I give You if you fall down and worship me. Satan again used the lust of the flesh and eyes to tempt Jesus along with the pride of self in life. Jesus seen all the food and good these other kingdoms did and would not have to suffer any longer in the flesh. Jesus was tempted by the lust of the eyes…He seen He could have authority over all these other nations and never have to do anything but commit idolatry. Jesus was tempted by the pride of self in life…He would not have to suffer and learn obedience by dying for sinners...He could be the Authority without having to suffer obedience unto death. Jesus did not fall but quoted as it is written…you shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt you serve.   All three temptations had this in common…the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of self in life.   Jesus could have turned stones into bread…Jesus could have commanded the angels to make Him not fall…Jesus could have committed idolatry and receive authority over the earth without any form of obedience or suffering. Jesus was tempted as it is written… 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 4:15-16. Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the vainglory of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abides for ever...1 John 2:15-17.   We have these promises of assurance…as it is written… Wherefore let him that thinketh he stands take heed lest he fall. There hath no temptation taken you but such as man can bear: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry...1 Corinthians 10:12-14. And in like manner the Spirit also helps our infirmity: for we know not how to pray as we ought; but the Spirit himself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered; and He that searches the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because He maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that to them that love God all things work together for good, even to them that are called according to his purpose...Romans 8:26-28.   Jesus therefore said to those Jews that had believed Him, If you abide in my word, then are you truly my disciples; and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free...John 8:31-32. …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...John 8:44. …I am the door; by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and go out, and shall find pasture. The thief cometh not, but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep...John 10:9-11.   Jesus was born of a virgin and never broke any of the Commandments of the law but was under the standard of the Ten Commandments. Jesus never broke any of the Ten Commandments being from the tribe of Judah and not from the tribe of Levi. In any of these temptations, Jesus never broke one of the Ten Commandments. Then by learning obedience as it is written…though He was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which He suffered; and having been made perfect, He became unto all them that obey Him the Author of eternal salvation; named of God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek...Hebrews 5:8-10.   Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead in order that we all could be saved from our disobedience to God, because unlike Jesus we all like sheep have gone astray. Do you believe Jesus died and was raised from the dead…yes or no? Do you want to be tempted away from God’s side…yes or no? Do you want to be saved from eternal punishment…forever being destroyed in fire because of your rebellion to God…yes or no?   Jesus said as it is written…after His resurrection and dying on the cross…to the 11 remaining disciples… … Go you into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieves (disobeys)  shall be condemned. And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover...Mark 16:15-18. …So then the Lord Jesus, after He had spoken unto them, was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen...Mark 16:19-20.     Prayer Father please help us not to be tempted…we struggle enough by ourselves…we renounce Satan and his temptations...please create in us a desire not to love the world or the things in the world…help us not to love our lives unto death so we may prosper and be in health as our soul prospers in Christ…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.   Pause for Prayer and Devotional a Wellsaid Christian Devotional about the teachings of Jesus… https://www.anopenbiblestudy.com/blog-by-ben-the-friend   #benjaminbrianstewart #Love #Christianity #Faith #Bible #Jesus #Prayer #Art #ChristianLife #Gospel #ChristianInspiration #Salvation #ChristianCommunity #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography

Jesus can create whatever you may need… Jesus said unto them, I am the Bread of life : he that cometh to Me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on Me shall never thirst...John 6:35…but whosoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall become in him a well of water springing up unto eternal life...John 4:14   Jesus is the door into the safety of the sheepfold… Jesus therefore said unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the Door of the sheep. All that came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. I am the Door; by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and go out, and shall find pasture. The thief cometh not, but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly...John 10:7-10   Jesus is the Light of the world which shines in the darkness created by the evil one… Again therefore Jesus spake unto them, saying, I am the Light of the world: he that follows Me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life...John 8:12   Jesus is the Truth the source of all Truth which created all things created… Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way (The Path to God), and the Truth (Source of all Truth), and the Life (Eternal Life given with God): no one cometh unto the Father, but by Me...John 14:6   Jesus is the good shepherd who laid down His life to supply the needs of His sheep… I am the Good shepherd : the Good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep. He that is a hireling, and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, beholds the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and flees and the wolf snatches them, and scatters them: he flees because he is a hireling, and cares not for the sheep. I am the Good shepherd; and I know mine own, and mine own know Me, even as the Father knows Me, and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep...John 10:11-15.   Jesus is the Resurrection of new life… Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection , and the life: he that believeth on Me, though he die, yet shall he live; and whosoever lives and believeth on Me shall never die. Believe you this? ...John 11:25-26.   Jesus is the True Vine… I am the Vine , you are the branches: He that abides in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit: for apart from Me you can do nothing. If a man abide not in Me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If you abide in Me, and my words abide in you, ask whatsoever you will, and it shall be done unto you...John 15:5-7.   Have you been born of the water and the Spirit…yes or no? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except one be born of water and 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, You must be born anew. The wind blows where it will, and you hear the voice thereof, but knowest not whence it cometh, and whither it goes: so is every one that is born of the Spirit...John 3:5-8. And Peter said unto them, Repent you, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him...Acts 2:38-39.   After Jesus was raised from the dead he came to His 11 disciples… And afterward he was manifested unto the eleven themselves as they sat at meat; and he upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them that had seen him after he was risen. And he said unto them, Go you into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieves (chooses to ignore or not to the do the will of God in order to be saved) shall be condemned...Mark 16:14-16.   Jesus is the Judgment Seat… For to this end Christ died and lived again, that He might be Lord of both the dead and the living. But you, why dost you judge thy brother? or you again, why dost you set at nought (make your brother nothing) thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of God. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, to me every knee shall bow, And every tongue shall confess to God. So then each one of us shall give account of himself to God...Romans 14:9-12. …and to you that are afflicted rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with the angels of His power in flaming fire, rendering vengeance to them that know not God, and to them that obey not the gospel (good news Jesus died and was raised so you will never have to choose an immoral deed) of our Lord Jesus: who shall suffer punishment, even eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of His might, when He shall come to be glorified in His saints, and to be marveled at in all them that believed (because our testimony unto you was believed) in that day...2 Thessalonians 1:7-10.   Are you prepared…if you were to die today…would you pass through the Door…or are you already in the sheepfold and remaining faithful…yes or no?   Prayer Father who is in Heaven…please create through Jesus whatever we may need for our soul to remain faithful and our needs be supplied so our soul may proser and be in health…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.   Pause for Prayer and Devotional a Wellsaid Christian Devotional about the teachings of Jesus… https://www.anopenbiblestudy.com/blog-by-ben-the-friend   #benjaminbrianstewart #Love #Christianity #Faith #Bible #Jesus #Prayer #Art #ChristianLife #Gospel #ChristianInspiration #Salvation #ChristianCommunity #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography

We are all just children in diapers before God… In that hour came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And He called to Him a little child, and set him in the midst of them, and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye turn, and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven…Matthew 18:1-4.   Which one of us can look at God and say why have you made me this way…we all must be like the child and say teach me better…I am but in diapers before You the Almighty please reveal the truth to me so I can learn to be like You…Daddy…Abba.   If you adopt (receive) a Child for Jesus then you receive Jesus… And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receives Me: but whoso shall cause one of these little ones that believe on Me to stumble, it is profitable for him that a great millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be sunk in the depth of the sea...(to die rather than to tempt a believer) Matthew 18:5-6. Wherefore let him that thinketh he stands take heed lest he fall. There hath no temptation taken you but such as man (any in mankind) can bear: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that ye may be able to endure it. Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry...1 Corinthians 10:12-14.   Will you receive your own kids in your household in Jesus name by teaching them the truth about Jesus being the only way of salvation…yes or no? You cannot be the tempter teaching children (believers) to sin or make them fall and please God…it betrays innocent and causes you to shed “innocent blood”. Any believer which falls…it causes Jesus to bleed more for them because they fell…or perhaps they never return from the false teaching or perhaps they will learn the truth and be saved. Whosoever goes onward and abides (lives it out) not in the teaching of Christ, hath not God: he that abides (lives) in the teaching, the same hath both the Father and the Son...2 John 1:9.   Having Jesus means you will have the necessities of life… Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to Me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on Me shall never thirst...John 6:35. But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, shall He not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles (unbelievers) seek; for your heavenly Father knows that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first His kingdom, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Be not therefore anxious (worried) for the morrow (future): for the morrow (future day) will be anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof...Matthew 6:30-34.   If you change your now then you change your future…get the first things right and the big things you worry with will work out…obey Jesus in the little things called the truth and He will handle the big things. Do you want to go to heaven and have Jesus as the Good Shepherd looking after your soul…yes or no?   Jesus can create you whatever you may need… In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The Same was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him; and without Him was not anything made that hath been made. In Him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in the darkness; and the darkness apprehended (comprehended) it not...John 1:1-5. 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 ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke (Teaching of the truth which sets you free from evil) upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek (obedient) and lowly (humble) in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke (truth) is easy, and my burden is light...Matthew 11:27-30. For it became Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the Author of their salvation perfect through sufferings…Hebrews 2:10.   Jesus suffered the scourging, the death of the cross and was raised from the dead in order to be The Author of Salvation. Have you asked the Good Shepherd of souls to Author you a plan of redemption, reconciliation with God and a plan of salvation…yes or no?   Prayer Our Father who is in Heaven…please meet our needs we know You know what we need more than the things we worry about…please continue to raise us in Christ just like children in diapers…In Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.   Pause for Prayer and Devotional a Wellsaid Christian Devotional about the teachings of Jesus… https://www.anopenbiblestudy.com/blog-by-ben-the-friend   #benjaminbrianstewart #Love #Christianity #Faith #Bible #Jesus #Prayer #Art #ChristianLife #Gospel #ChristianInspiration #Salvation #ChristianCommunity #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography

A test…are you self righteous… And he spake also this parable unto certain who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and set all others at nought (nothing): …Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee (preacher), and the other a publican (government employee…politician). The actions of the Pharisee…the preacher… The Pharisee stood and prayed thus (this way) with himself, God,…I thank thee, that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners (those which require service through forcible or political means), unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican (a traitor to Jews…a roman employee). (Listen to his resume)…I fast twice in the week; I give tithes (a tenth) of all that I get. The actions of the Jewish publican… …But the publican (a Jew which could only feed himself by being a roman government employee), standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote his breast, saying, (The publican’s resume)…God, be thou merciful to me a sinner (traitor). I say unto you, This man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalts himself shall be humbled; but he that humbles himself shall be exalted. Jesus teaching in the same setting of how a child should receive the Kingdom of God… …And they were bringing unto him (Jesus) also their babes, that he (Jesus) should touch them: but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked (forbade) them. But Jesus called them unto him, saying, …Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall in no wise enter therein...Luke 18:9-17. Do you seek position with man or do you seek God’s service… Are the self-righteous…thinking your past resume will get you into Heaven Or are you a sinner who needs to be taught how not to sin and is looking for forgiveness? The self-righteous was thinking his works was all he needed…he was not seeking God or forgiveness but believed he had already won the entrance into Heaven…he was not asking God to meet his needs spiritually but was “reminding” God how much he sacrificed for God’s service. Whereas the publican…knew he needed God or else he would not make it…notice the text said…the Pharisee prayed with himself…he was so full of self, God would not entertain his prayer…the publican was just the opposite he came to the temple to seek God and to learn better. Jesus said to his disciples in the same setting to receive the kingdom of God like a child…going daddy bless me I know not what is good for me…this was the intentions of the parents…humble opinion…like saying please bless them. Do you seek God like a child…looking to God to learn and be forgiven…yes or no? Prayer Father please bless us so we not offend You in word or deed…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen. Pause for Prayer and Devotional a Wellsaid Christian Devotional about the teachings of Jesus… https://www.anopenbiblestudy.com/blog-by-ben-the-friend #benjaminbrianstewart #Love #Christianity #Faith #Bible #Jesus #Prayer #Art #ChristianLife #Gospel #ChristianInspiration #Salvation #ChristianCommunity #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography

You must forsake evil or repent to live in the eternal heaven…   For godly grief (sorrow) produces a repentance that leads to salvation without regret, whereas worldly grief produces death...2 Corinthians 7:10. Repentance starts in the mind…as in you hear of knowledge that what you have done is wrong or evil. Then this knowledge causes you to consider wrong and right in your heart…then you decided if you change your behavior to fit the knowledge revealed unto you…it involves a change of mind…hearing new knowledge or facts…which results in a change of heart…the desire to be more moral like God…then a change in direction or living according to the decision made to more like God or to be more moral. Some people are sorry they got caught stealing because they will suffer the consequences…others are sorry they stole and did not mean to do wrong. Some change and rejoice because the new knowledge…the new morals…the new direction will lead to salvation in eternal Heaven…others are sorry it does not meet social standards.   What does repentance mean… When a person repents of a telling a lie…it means you will never lie again. When a person repents of stealing it means they will never steal again. When a person repents of murdering it means they will never murder again. When a person repents of coveting it means they will not want other people’s blessings. When a person repents of adultery…means they will never have sex outside of marriage again. God requires repentance according to His moral standard of the Ten Commandments…which can be summed up in terms of treating our neighbor as ourself…you do not like your money to be stolen so do not steal…you do not like to be lied to so do not lie…you do not like to be killed…so do not murder…you do not want people eyeing your blessings…so do not covet another’s blessings…the ten commandments was the minimum standard of the Jew…and thus Jesus being from the tribe of Judah to be called sinless…if One soul could keep them without fault and Jesus the Christ of Nazareth did never break one of these Ten Commandments…and was and is sinless.   The Ten Commandments… 1.      Thou shalt have no other gods before Me Exo 20:3 2.      Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image Exo 20:4-6   3.      Thou shalt not take the name of God in vain Exo 20:7   4.      Honor thy father and thy mother Exo 20:12   5.      Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Exo 20:8…John 4:20-26…1 Cor 16:1-2…the first day now. 6.      Thou shalt not kill. Exo 20:13   7.      Thou shalt not commit adultery. Exo 20:14   8.      Thou shalt not steal. Exo 20:15   9.      Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. Exo 20:16    10.  Thou shalt not covet Exo 20:17     Jesus required and told others to repent or they would die… Now there were some present at that very season who told him of the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And He answered and said unto them, Think ye that these Galileans were sinners above all the Galileans, because they have suffered these things? I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all in like manner perish. Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them, think ye that they were offenders above all the men that dwell in Jerusalem? I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish...Luke 13:1-5.   You cannot willfully break one of the Ten Commandments and please God…you must forsake your behavior and conform to God’s standard… For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which shall devour the adversaries...Hebrews 10:26-27.   Listen to what Peter told those Jews He accused of killing Jesus… Let all the house of Israel therefore know assuredly, that God hath made Him (Jesus) both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified. Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what shall we do (we murdered the Christ)? …And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto Him...Acts 2:36-39.   We must change and be like our Father in Heaven…just like our dads here on earth teach us their commandments or ways of living. Our Heavenly Father…the Creator…the Great I am having a moral code which is the morals found in the Ten Commandments…Can you read the Ten Commandments and say I have never broken one of these…yes or no?   If you have broken one these then you need forgiveness from God…just like Peter told those who killed Jesus. …And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto Him...Acts 2:36-39.   Jesus died having never broken any of the Commandments of God and laid down His sinless life so our Father in Heaven would forgive you and I of breaking His moral code or heart…Do you believe Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead so you and I could be forgiven…yes or no?   Are you like those who murder or crucified Jesus…and need forgiveness of stealing…lying…murdering…coveting…adultery… or any other commandments…yes or no?   If you do not repent…then you can find no forgiveness…listen For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which shall devour the adversaries. A man that hath set at nought Moses' law dies without compassion on the word of two or three witnesses: of how much sorer punishment, think ye, shall he be judged worthy, who hath trodden underfoot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant wherewith he was sanctified an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace? For we know Him that said, Vengeance belongs unto Me, I will recompense. And again, The Lord shall judge His people. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God...Hebrews 10:26-31.   Prayer Our Father in Heaven…please reveal and supply all our needs to conform to the morality of the Ten Commandments so we may develop a character like Yours and so our soul will prosper and we can be in health by loving our neighbor as ourself for You in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.   Pause for Prayer and Devotional a Wellsaid Christian Devotional about the teachings of Jesus… https://www.anopenbiblestudy.com/blog-by-ben-the-friend   #benjaminbrianstewart #Love #Christianity #Faith #Bible #Jesus #Prayer #Art #ChristianLife #Gospel #ChristianInspiration #Salvation #ChristianCommunity #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography

…Satan has been cast down and his angels and their followers which agree with devils to war against the Almighty. The devil…satan is alive and working in the world… And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world; he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him...Revelation 12:9… …For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, fashioning themselves into apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for even Satan fashions himself into an angel of light. It is no great thing therefore if his ministers also fashion themselves as ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be according to their works...2 Corinthians 11:13-15… …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. Who do serve…Satan or Jesus the Christ…Do you want to change and serve Jesus and do what is right…yes or no? Listen to what is written… Be not unequally yoked with unbelievers: for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? or what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what portion hath a believer with an unbeliever? And what agreement hath a temple of God with idols? for we are a temple of the living God; even as God said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore Come you out from among them, and be you separate, saith the Lord, And touch no unclean thing; And I will receive you, And will be to you a Father, And you shall be to me sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty...2 Corinthians 6:14-18 Do you want forgiveness…yes or no? And this is the message which we have heard from Him and announce unto you, that God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: but if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us...1 John 1:5-10. Have you been baptized for the forgiveness of your sins…yes or no? And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto Him. And with many other words he testified, and exhorted them, saying, Save yourselves from this crooked generation. They then that received his word were baptized: and there were added unto them in that day about three thousand souls...Acts 2:38-41. Will you be baptized…yes or no? Have you been baptized…yes or no? Prayer Father, please meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal our wounds…please impart to us the water of life and the oil spoken of in John’s Revelation that we may be able to overcome the devil…we renounce anything not Holy and ask Your will be done through us and to us…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Do not my words do good to him that walks uprightly...Micah 2:7?   Fearing God…are you a God-fearing soul…fearing God’s punishment? The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all they that do His commandments (The Ten Commandments): His praise (works from doing the Commandments)  endures forever...Psalms 111:10. The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of knowledge (Knowing God exists and His Standard of conduct…morality); But the foolish despise wisdom (walking in the fear of God) and instruction (in knowledge)...Proverbs 1:7. This is the end of the matter (conclusion from all the author has seen); all hath been heard (all his questions answered): Fear God, and keep His commandments; for this is the whole duty of man (mankind’s plan and purpose). For God will bring every work into judgment, with every hidden thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil...Ecclesiastes 12:13-14   Do Justly…(treat God and people right according to The Ten Commandments…and to be kind even to your enemies) (God) He hath showed you, O man, what is good; and what does Jehovah require of you, but to do justly, (to treat people right…to love your neighbor as yourself) and to love kindness (be kind even to your enemies), and to walk humbly with thy God (Do it with God)...Micah 6:8?   For there is no I in self…we were all made except the Creator… For all these things hath My Hand made (God’s Hand), and so all these things came to be, saith Jehovah: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor (no selfishness) and of a contrite spirit (humble acknowledging… “I can not do it without You God” or rather we can do it together), and that trembles (fears God’s punishment)  at My Word...Isaiah 66:2.    Walk Humbly with your God…Do His Commandments… Be not unequally yoked with unbelievers: for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? or what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial (idol or fallen angels)? or what portion hath a believer (Christian with an unbeliever (non-Christian)? And what agreement hath a temple of God with idols (things made)? for we are a temple of the living God; even as God said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people… …Wherefore Come you out from among them, and be you separate, saith the Lord, And touch no unclean thing; And I will receive you, And will be to you a Father, And you shall be to me sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty...2 Corinthians 6:14-18.   Do you want to be adopted by Jesus into the family of God? Or Have you already been adopted and need to hear…It does not matter what you done Son just come home to Me? Jesus said…As it is written… And he said unto them, Go you into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieves (ignores God’s existence and reconciliation with Him through Jesus death, burial, and resurrection) shall be condemned (punished with everlasting destruction)...Mark 16:15-16.   Will you be baptized in order to be saved…yes or no?
