God loves everyone, but probably prefers "fruits of the spirit" over "religious nuts"! Matt 3:8, “bring forth fruit worthy of repentance” Matt 7:16-20, “you shall know them by their fruits, do men gather grapes of thorns or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bring forth good fruit, but a corrupt tree brings forth evil. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit nor can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that brings not forth good fruit is hewn down and cast into the fire, wherefore by their fruits you shall know them” Gal 5:22=24, “but the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance (self-control), against such there is no law and they that are Christ’s have crucifies the flesh with the affections and lusts” Eph 5:9-11, “for the fruit of the spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth proving what is acceptable unto the Lord and having no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness but rather reprove them.” James 3:17, “but the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy and the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace” Just because someone says they have a word from God does not mean they know Jesus. There are many false Christs and Christians in the world who are deceived and deceiving others. There are many teachers that claim to know Christ and that their teaching is from Christ. How can you tell the difference from the authentic fruits of the spirit and those that are counterfeits of false teachers that transform themselves into apostles of God? By their fruits, are they overcoming evil with good? Are the cursing in Jesus name? Are they loving God by keeping His commandments or are they teaching the commandments of men? Many false teachers teach lip service will save you, saying ask the Lord into your heart and you will be saved. However Jesus said it requires more than honoring Him with your lips, He said in John 3:5, “Except a man be born of the water and the Spirit He CANNOT enter into the kingdom of God” Jesus also said this, Mark 16:15-16, “Go you into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature he that believes and is baptized shall be saved but he that does not believe will be damned”. So you can believe all those false people that tell you what their teachers, and imaginations say is God’s will to be saved or you can believe the commands of Jesus. Will you obey Jesus rather than men that are religious nuts following their imaginations and man-made doctrines? When you do follow Jesus commands to be saved, then you will produce fruits of the Spirit.

How Jesus was required to Remember the Sabbath Day... In the Ten Commandments...which was the minimum requirements Jesus (from the tribe of Judah not a priest from the tribe of Levi) to be sinless...The remember the Sabbath Day was a commandment which when obeyed left one ready to worship on the day God would receive worship from His people...The Jew when he remembered the Sabbath Day...would have kept the other 9 commandments so according to our English Roman Calendar would have been ready to worship on Saturday...instead of offering an animal sacrifice. Here are the Ten commandments shortened for ease from Exodus chapter 20: 1. You will have no other gods before Me. 2. You will not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth 3. You will not take the name of the LORD your God in vain 4. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 5. Honor your father and your mother 6. You will not kill. 7. You will not commit adultery. 8. You will not steal. 9. You will not bear false witness against your neighbor. 10. You will not covet As a Jew if you had kept the other 9 commandments then you were in the worship assembly...not the sacrifice an animal line...so remember the Sabbath Day was a requirement so you would not have to offer a sinner's sacrifice...and would have been accepted in worship. Jesus in talking to the Samaritan woman told her anyone could be accepted on any day If they were worshiping God in Spirit and Truth...As it is written...But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeks such to worship Him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth. (Joh 4:23-24) After Jesus died and rose from the dead and the Apostles began the church on the Day of Pentecost...found recorded in the book of Acts chapter 2...this word from Jesus became in effect the replacement or the fulling of the remember the Sabbath Day so you could be accepted by God in worship. Jesus as it is written in Mark 12:29-31 said...And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And you will love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, you will love your neighbor as yourself. There is none other commandment greater than these. (Mar 12:29-31) As it is written...Jesus Christ said...If any man come to Me and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after Me, cannot be my disciple. (Luk 14:26-27) So in our terms...when go to the worship assembly we call church...remember enter to worship and leave to serve. Pray with me... Father please help us keep ourselves in the truth and walk in the Spirit so we can always call on You and worship You anytime...please meet our soul's deepest needs and heal our sounds caused by accidents and sinful behavior...in Jesus of Nazareth's name amen.

Family roles in Christ… Wives, be in subjection unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord… (Wives the decision for a Christian family is left up to the man…pray God will be done through him and if he an unbeliever then set the proper example…and trust God will be done…) …wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, even if any obey not the word, they may without the word be gained by the behavior of their wives; beholding your chaste (sincere or honest) behavior coupled with fear…to the end that your prayers be not hindered. (1Pe 3:1-7 ASV) (In case the man is a hypocrite or an unbeliever…never trust him with your salvation…best you can do is pray and set a good example…you cannot keep him from choosing evil or sin…but you can influence him for Jesus by setting a proper example and praying for him and your children…you and I are not qualified to save him only Jesus the Christ is qualified to redeem him and you…so trust in Christ not your husband at all times.) …For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, being himself the savior of the body. But as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their husbands in everything… Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church… …and gave Himself up for it; that He might sanctify it (be willing to protect her from physical death so she can lead your children to heaven even if you die physically), having cleansed it (the people in the church family) by the washing of water with the word (reading the word of God or hearing the Word), that He might present the church to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish (teach your wife the truth in the New Testament and help her be spotless before God through example and teaching God’s word) Even so ought husbands also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He that loves his own wife loves himself (love Jesus more than any but love your wife as the most important on earth and Jesus the most important period): for no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as Christ also the church; because we are members of His body…(the church of Christ Romans 16:16) For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh. This mystery is great: but I speak in regard of Christ and of the church… …Nevertheless do you also severally love each one his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she fear her husband. (Eph 5:22-33 ASV)… (Husbands love your wives and wives respect your husbands…you are not qualified to pay her sins or to free her from hell only Jesus is…so set the proper example with prayer and deeds obeying Jesus first her will second…as yourself if you were in her shoes) …Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right… …Honor your father and mother (which is the first commandment with promise), that it may be well with thee, and you mayest live long on the earth. And, you fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but nurture them in the chastening (discipline) and admonition (encouragement) of the Lord. (Eph 6:1-4 ASV) (children obey Jesus first…then mom and dad second if there is a conflict…just as mom and dad are supposed to obey Jesus first) Prayer for families… Father who is heaven please heal our families and cancel all evil within each family…please meet our souls deepest needs and instruct us with the truth…help us set an good example and have the trust in our prayer to You for salvation and the right ways of Your only Fathered Son Jesus Christ…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen (Acts 20:7-8).

Our Creator does not tempt us at all…to do evil or sin… read a short devotional on overcoming temptation... …Blessed is the man that endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord promised to them that love Him. Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God; for God cannot be tempted with evil, and He himself tempts no man: but each man is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed (given opportunity). Then the lust, when it hath conceived, bears sin: and the sin, when it is full-grown, bringeth forth death…(Jas 1:12-15 ASV) Wherefore let him that thinks he stands take heed unless he fall. There has no temptation taken you but such as man can bear (any man can endure): 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 (anything drawing you away from Christ)…(1Co 10:12-14 ASV)…   …But I say, Walk by the Spirit, and you shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary the one to the other; that you may not do the things that you would (without following Christ). But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law…(Gal 5:16-18)…But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deluding your own selves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a mirror: for he beholds (looks at) himself, and goes away (from the mirror), and straightway forgets what manner of man he was. But he that looks into the perfect law, the (law) of liberty, and so  continues, being not a hearer that forgets but a doer that works (the will of Christ), this man shall be blessed in his doing…(Jas 1:22-25 ASV) …Now the works of the flesh are manifest (made known like the goods on a ships manifest), which are these: fornication (sex between unmarried), uncleanness, lasciviousness (evil lusts), idolatry, sorcery, enmities (hostile), strife (variance to God’s will), jealousies (unholy stinginess), wraths, factions, divisions, parties, envying(s) (wanting others blessings), drunkenness, revellings (drunk parties)…and such like; of which I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that they who practise such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God…But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering (patiently enduring), kindness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness (obedience), self-control; against such there is no law. And they that are of Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts thereof. If we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also walk. Let us not become vainglorious (self-glory…promoting), provoking one another, envying one another…(Gal 5:19-26 ASV)   Pray with me? Dear Holy Father…please help us to endure the temptations we each face and help us to supply the needs of other Christians…and meet our soul’s deepest needs…our spirit’s deepest needs…and heal our body and other wounds from our sinful past and please show us mercy and bless the faithful with grace, mercy, peace, joy, love, wisdom, understanding, and please reveal the knowledge of the truth to us so we can do what is right by You and Your only Son Jesus Christ…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Jesus Christ is the Judge Who judges according to the truth He has revealed… I charge you therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick (living) and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables…Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on Him, If you continue in my word, then are you my disciples indeed; And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free (from the lies which would lead you to hell)… 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 (except) the Son, and He to whomsoever the Son will reveal Him. Come unto Me, all ye that labor (work) and are heavy laden (burdened), and I will give you rest. Take my yoke (teaching of truth) upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek (obedient to God) and lowly in heart (humble or approachable): and ye shall find rest unto your souls (freedom from the evil which would drag you away from the truth). For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. (2Ti 4:1-4 Joh 8:31-32 Mat 11:27-30) Do you love the truth revealed from Jesus Christ…It is written we must have a love of the truth to overcome satan and his lies… For the mystery of iniquity (law without God) does already work: only he who now lets will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders (miracles based on a lie), And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion (a false reality not easily proven false unless you love the truth), that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness… Wherefore let him that thinketh he stands take heed lest he fall. There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man (all men have felt or endured the same temptations): but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry… What say I then? that the idol is anything, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is anything? But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that you should have fellowship with devils. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: you cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils. (2Th 2:7-12 1Co 10:12-14 1Co 10:19-21) Prayer for adoption by Jesus in the truth… Father please show us mercy for we stand condemned as a nation…we renounce any unholy source and all forms of idolatry and satan’s kingdom…please reveal the truth to us so we can change and do what is right by You and Your Holy Son Jesus Christ…please let the United States of America by Your last remnant and save us from Hell…In Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen. #BenjaminBrianStewart #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography #AnOpenBibleStudy

Can you out give God our Creator… Can a man give anything to the Creator but love or as Jesus said … if You love Me then Keep My Commandments…Do you realize our only value is in the rightful obedience to the truth? Yes or no? We do not like to hear render obedience do we…If you do not obey the truth then God says He will burn you in hell fire forever…therefore man has no value other than fearing God and Keeping His Commandments. The writer of Ecclesiastes said the whole purpose of man was to fear God and keep His commandments…Do you know your plan and purpose…Do you have a plan and purpose? Yes or no. Jesus of Nazareth (Acts 22:8) is the Author of Salvation (Heb 5:8-9) and will write you a plan and purpose in life…a plan of redemption…reconciliation and salvation which results in eternal life as He reveals the truth to you and you practice what is right with God and creation. Jesus Christ of Nazareth…the only Jesus which came from the town in Israel named Nazareth…should really be said…Jesus the Christ…Christ is His title not His last name…it is His office…Jesus Christ is the only Son of our Father in Heaven and the Only One Qualified to Forgive you and teach you how to be right with His Father…Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead to institute His teaching as the Author of Salvation as a New Agreement between God and creation destroying the works of the devil. Jesus trained His Apostles and Holy Men of God to teach His New Agreement or teachings after He ascended into Heaven after being raised from the dead. Jesus being born into the tribe of Judah had to only meet the minimum requirements of never breaking the Ten Commandments…Jesus not from the priestly tribe of Levi never violated the Ten Commandments and remained sinless from birth until His death and even today remains sinless from Heaven where He reigns after being resurrected from the dead until His enemies are made His footstool…But of which of the angels hath He (Jehovah) said at any time, Sit You on my right hand, Till I make Your enemies the footstool of Your feet? Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to do service for the sake of them that shall inherit salvation? (Heb 1:13-14) Jesus Christ said…All things have been delivered unto Me of my Father: and no one knows the Son, except the Father; neither does any know the Father, except the Son, and He to whomsoever the Son decides to reveal Him. Come unto Me, all you that labor (work) and are heavy laden (burdened), and I will give you rest. Take my yoke (Jesus Teaching of Truth) upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek (obedient to God) and lowly (humble or approachable) in heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. (Mat 11:27-30) Do you want to learn the truth and be free from evil in order to do what is morally right before God…yes or no? Do you agree to read the New Testament of Christ in order to know the teachings of Jesus Christ…yes or no…if you agree then Jesus said you will find rest for your souls or free from the lies which torment your soul but you have to obey the Jesus the Truth and do what is right…sound like good news…Yes or no? Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life: no one comes unto the Father, but by Me. (Joh 14:6) Jesus said before His ascension into Heaven after His resurrection… As it is Written… And afterward He was manifested (made known) unto the eleven themselves as they sat at meat (food); and He upbraided (shamed) 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 ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation. He that believes (the good news) and is baptized will be saved; but he that disbelieves (rejects the message of Jesus) will be condemned. And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in My name will they cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise (way) hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. 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. Mar 16:14-20 ASV Father please meet our soul’s deepest needs for truth and reconciliation…please bless us so that our soul prospers…and please have mercy on America by granting us a leaf from the tree of life we are sin sick and need Your help…In Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen. #BenjaminBrianStewart #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography #AnOpenBibleStudy

Jesus warning to make Him your only source and supply for life…   Beware of false prophets (Christians), who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves (devils or liars). By their fruits (deeds) you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, (grapes do not come from thorns) or figs of thistles (figs do not come from thistles)? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit (nothing violating the ten commandments); but the corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit (deeds). A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit (if Jesus is your source you end up with good deeds), neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit (an evil source cannot end up with good deeds) Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. …Therefore by their fruits (deeds) you shall know them (see what they do). Not everyone that says unto Me, Lord, Lord (acknowledge my Authority and Position), shall enter the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy (preach or tell forth truth) by your name, and by your name cast out demons, and by your name do many mighty works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity (who have sin as your source) Mat 7:15-23 ASV     Encouraging words to render obedience to the word of God… But Jesus answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these that hear the word of God, and do it…So belief cometh of hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ…But be you doers of the word, and not hearers only, deluding (diverting from the path) your own selves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a mirror: for he beholds (sees the reflection of) himself, and goes away, and straightway forgets what manner of man he was (forgets his reputation or reflection). But he that looks (seeks) into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and so continues, being not a hearer that forgets but a doer that works (remembers what God said and does it), this man shall be blessed in his doing. (Luk 8:21 Rom 10:17 Jas 1:22-25)     Good deeds and roots which cause them in Christ… But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, self-control; against such there is no law. And they that are of Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts thereof. If we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also walk. Let us not become vainglorious (seeking man’s approval), provoking one another, envying one another…Put on therefore, as God's elect, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness (humbleness), meekness (obedience), longsuffering (enduring hardship); forbearing one another, and forgiving each other, if any man have a complaint against any; even as the Lord forgave you, so also do you: and above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfectness. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to the which also you were called in one body; and be you thankful… What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace (favors from God) may abound? God forbid. We who died to sin, how shall we any longer live therein? Or are you ignorant that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried therefore with Him through baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life. (Gal 5:22-26 Col 3:12-15 Rom 6:1-4)   Prayer for mercy and repentance… Father please meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal our wounds…please reveal the truth to us so we can learn to do right by You…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.   #BenjaminBrianStewart #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography #AnOpenBibleStudy

God always causes us to triumph in Christ Jesus…the gates of hell will not prevail against us… …But thanks be unto God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and makes manifest through us the savor (saving influence) of His knowledge in every place…For unto which of the angels said He at any time, You are my Son, This day have I begotten (Fathered) You? and again, I will be to Him a Father, And He shall be to me a Son? And when He again brings in the firstborn into the world He says, And let all the angels of God worship Him (Jesus). And of the angels He saith, Who makes His angels winds, And His ministers a flame of fire: but of the Son He says, Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever; And the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Your kingdom. You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed thee With the oil of gladness above your fellows. And, You, Lord, in the beginning did lay the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the works of Your hands: They shall perish; but You continue: And they all shall wax old as does a garment; And as a mantle shalt You roll them up, As a garment, and they shall be changed: But You are the same, And Your years shall not fail. But of which of the angels has He said at any time, Sit You on my right hand, Till I make Your enemies the footstool of Your feet?... But forget not this one thing, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 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 (all creation) should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall be dissolved with fervent heat, and the earth and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing that these things are thus all to be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in all holy living and godliness, looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God, by reason of which the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? But, according to His promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. (2Co 2:14 Heb 1:5-13 2Pe 3:8-13)   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. Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we persuade men, but we are made manifest unto God; and I hope that we are made manifest also in your consciences…Jesus Christ said…And if any man hear my sayings, and keep them not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. He that rejects Me, and receives not my sayings, has one that judges Him: the word that I spoken forth, the same shall judge Him in the last day…Not every one that says unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but He that does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by your name, and by your name cast out demons, and by your name do many mighty works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, you that work iniquity (evil…not my will)… (2Co 5:10-11 Joh 12:47-48 Mat 7:21-23)   Do you know what Jesus said on the matter…have you not read the New Agreement between God and creation called the New Testament (agreement) of Jesus Christ? Yes or no…   What is Jesus’s prescribed method of remedy of evil doing…what is His prescription, remedy and cure for your soul’s deepest needs…of forgiveness and mercy…   Father please meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal our sin scars…we renounce anything and anyone un-Holy please have mercy in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.   #BenjaminBrianStewart #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography #AnOpenBibleStudy

May you find God’s mercy not judgment when considered by the Almighty God…   For as the Father raises the dead and giveth them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom He will. For neither does the Father judge any man, but He hath given all judgment unto the Son…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. Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we persuade men…God forbid: yes, let God be found true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That you might be justified in your words, And might prevail when you come into judgment. But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who visits with wrath? (I speak after the manner of men.) God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?... (Joh 5:21-22 2Co 5:10-11 Rom 3:4-6)   …But you have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you, and themselves drag you before the judgment-seats? Do not they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called? Howbeit if you fulfil the royal law, according to the scripture, You shalt love your neighbor as yourself,  you do well: but if you have respect of persons, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors…He that oppresses the poor to increase his gain, And he that giveth to the rich, shall come only to want… But this I say, He that sows sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he that sows bountifully shall reap also bountifully. Let each man do according as he hath purposed in his heart: not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound unto you; that you, having always all sufficiency in everything, may abound unto every good work… (Jas 2:6-9 Pro 22:16 2Co 9:6-8)   Father please meet our soul’s deepest needs for repentance in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.   #BenjaminBrianStewart #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography #AnOpenBibleStudy

He that is not with Me is against Me, and he that gathers not with Me scatters…Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by its fruit. You offspring of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. 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…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…Mat 12:33-37 Mat 12:30 Mat 10:32-33   Father please forgive us of our idle words and cleanse us from all evil in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.   #BenjaminBrianStewart #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography #AnOpenBibleStudy

Is Jesus your source of light or truth…or is your mom or preacher? …The lamp of the body is the eye: if therefore your eye be single, your whole body shall be full of light. But if your eye be evil, your whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you be darkness, how great is the darkness! No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon…If any man comes unto Me, and hates not his own father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. Whosoever doth not bear his own cross, and come after Me, cannot be my disciple…Jesus therefore said unto them, Yet a little while is the light among you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness overtake you not: and he that walketh in the darkness knows not whither he goes. While you have the light, believe on the light, that you may become sons of light. These things spoke Jesus, and He departed and hid Himself from them. (Luk 14:26-27 Mat 6:22-24 Joh 12:35-36) Will you renounce satan and all forms of evil and begin to learn the truth of Jesus Christ of Nazareth…yes or no? Father we renounce anything un-Holy and not from Jesus please fill us full of You and Your Son Jesus that we may walk in Spirit and Truth…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen. #BenjaminBrianStewart #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography #AnOpenBibleStudy

Do you have a plan and purpose in Jesus Christ? Have you ever made a commitment to Jesus before? I have and I am glad I did, becoming a Christian is the best thing I ever done. Being a Christian makes me have a purpose to become like my Creator, the Father of all things. Did you know Jesus will never ask you to do a wrong thing and will show you how to do right by God and your fellow man? It is written, Mat 5:6, blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness for they will be filled. Do you want to be right with God? and your neighbors? and your family? and everyone else? Yes or No?   Will you work a plan of reconciliation with God and your fellow man? Will you work a plan of redemption and salvation for yourself and others? Having this hunger and thirst for being right with God will give you a plan and purpose and when your done you could shake everyone's hand and look them in the eye. Jesus said I am the way the truth and the life, in John 14:6. Jesus said in John 8:31-32, if you continue in my word then you are my disciples indeed and you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. Jesus said, if you love Me then keep my commandments John 14:15. The inspired record as it is written, 2Jn 1:9 KJV Whosoever transgresses, and abides not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abides in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.   Heb 5:8-9 KJV Though he were a Son, yet learned He obedience by the things which He suffered; (9) And being made perfect, He became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey Him;   Are you fulfilling a plan and a purpose? Jesus of Nazareth can give you a righteous plan and purpose. Jesus will never ask you to do a wrong thing and Jesus died and was raised on the third day, so all your wrongs can be forgiven. Jesus died so you would never have to do a wrong thing again. Do you hunger and thirst after being righteous? Then call on Him…? Act 22:7-8 KJV And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why persecute you Me? (8) And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And He said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you persecute.     Father, please help us to be wise unto salvation for ourselves and others, please meet our souls' deepest needs, and forgive us our sins, we forgive those who done us wrong and ask you would heal our souls' deepest wounds and cover us in grace, mercy, peace, joy, and love in Jesus of Nazareth's name amen.   #BenjaminBrianStewart #love #instagood #photoftheday #beautiful #happy #new #sports #entertainment #technology #business #fashion #health #travel #food #music #art #photography #AnOpenBibleStudy
