1 | How do we know that we are truly saved? | 1 John 3:24 | C4truth | 141427 | ||
BradK hi, you better print it and read it in 2 sessions I don't want to lose you again. In the time I have I'll explain the best I can. To use what I consider deductive reasoning; We know God is a spirit and when He creates He does it from the spirit realm. A mannisfestation of the spirit is simply; something being called from the spirit realm into the physical realm;our realm, the earth. As far as I can tell Gen 1:3 was the first thing that was shone to us,as how God creates. My point isn't that, that was the first time God created; it was that it was a model of how God does things. Like the Old Testiment . It testifies of God and what is to come, namely His son. God wants us to have all He put in His son's will. The New testiment. Have you ever had a relative die and have him will all the good stuff to you. My grandpa did that. This is how it worked; 1.My grandfather had to die 2. I had to prove I was his grandchild 3.I had to believe what my grandpa willed me was there,or else I wouldn't take the time to petition for the property. 4.I would make claim on it,and wait for the court to verify I met the criteria to receive. God is the same today,yesterday,and forever. His personality is that He wants us to be Christ like or, it has even been said godly. We are to take on the personalities of Christ. How do we do that? Believe in God, and take him at His word that he willed to us; His children in The New Will And Testimant. We cannot please God with unbelief. So when He sent Jesus Who said, all I have is from the Father. All I have I give to you. And I must go so, the helper can come-The Holy Spirit He will reveal all of what the Father has or, is. Jesus has dominion over all. He is The king Of Kings, Ruler Of The Universe and He wants to give this reign to His believers. Jesus was called The Second Adam - you'll have to do a word search. He has come to give us all He has; dominion or authority over all the things of this earth. That is what God did when He told Adam take dominion before the fall. The word picture of this is when the seed of the woman-Mary's seed - crushed the head of the serpant-satan by putting satan under the authority-dominion of Jesus. I am God's creation but through the adoption of Jesus and my accepting Him as my Lord. I now have family rights. I am recognized as God's child because of who I have placed over myself as the headship of my life.Otherwise all my righteousness would bew as filthy rags. Not because I'm always doing bad stuff. It is because I am not in the family. Ever try and inherit someone elses grandpa stuff. Jesus died to give those things of God to me. That is why we can do all things through Christ. On one hand the dos and don'ts you learn as a kid make you wise and a better person to get along with. Those laws reveal the nature of God, what brings life. But because we live in a body that is made from the dust of this earth in our natural or earhly self with the help of lies from satan. The way I have dominion over this world is by not believing the lies of Satan. Rather walk in the truth of God, through the power of His Son and the revealing of God's truth by His' Holy Spirit-full package of God. That is now the begining of the mannifistation of the spirit realm. AS a believer I believe I do not want to make a mockery of Jesus' death. So by the power vested in me I plan to believe for the wholesomeness of God. Which by the way is not talking about dairy products. Wholesomeness is like a full package of God. It is like a whole set. LIke a calander has 12 months or, a case Coke has 12 cans. I'd like to believe that is where the word holy came from. And then the world tried to take the meaning away by using whole to mean something is missing, like holes in your socks or the like. got to go ask the Holy Spirit For Help with me. Bless YOU. |

3 | How do we know that we are truly saved? | 1 John 3:24 | C4truth | 141368 | ||
Why do you ask? I'm not trying to be a smarty pants. Are you asking because you are unsure? Or, you'd like to make a judgement about someone you like as a friend, or a wife? Well because you signed from the heart, I'll take it that way. In Romans 10:9 it tells you how to get saved; that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead you will be SAVED! When a person does that, they may not feel any different. Even though scripture says you are a new creature in Christ. What happened was you asked the spirit of God to come live in you. Spirits live in the spirit realm. Your fleshly appearence didn't change but, your spirit did. We are made up of 3 different parts; spirit, body, soul. So, a born again Christian has a new spirit; the Spirit of God. You have probably heard; once you have Christ you have all you need. Well it is true-everything God has, God gave to Jesus and, everything Jesus has He gives to us. Jesus gives everything to us in our spirit. Now how we get the stuff from the spirit realm is manifesting it through faith. Faith is believing in the unseen as though it were. The unseen is the spirit realm. I hope I'm not complicating something that is so simple. I'm going to tell you how the first mannifistation of the spirit happened; Genesis 1:3 'Then God said let "there be light"; and there was light.' That was the simplest example of the mannifistation of the spirit realm. God is a God of example. He spoke it, believed it, and it became. For us to mannifest what was poured into our spirit: first we speak it, then believe it and wait. But the whole thing here is we live here in the earthly-physical realm. Quess who's dominion that is Satan's-the father of lies. Who is our enemy, he came to rob, steal, and destroy. This is the account of Satan: When in heaven his name was Lucifer. He was one of the top angels and was jealous of the praise God was getting. He decided to put his throne above God but, Jesus kicked him and his followers-one third the angels down to earth. Where he was classified as a serpent. Adam and Eve were told not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The serpent now Satan, conviced Eve and Adam with lies to eat of the forbidden tree. When they did they believed Satan's words over God's words. Belief is one of the highest forms of worship. Anyhow once they believed Satan they put themselves under Satan, now everything they had was under Satan, he which acquired. What they had was dominion over the earth. Dominion means authority. Jesus is called the 2nd Adam because He came to give dominion back to God's creation. But things are differnt because their is sin in the world so, Jesus had to do carrying of sin as well. That's the reason for the cross. God knew we wouldn't be perfect because our bodies are born in this world from the dust of this world. Our flesh is of sinful nature because of where it comes from. Some might say of a newborn baby; he is so innocent. Sure he has not sinned yet but his body was made from dust that came from where Satan has dominion. Scriptures say your flesh is always at odds with the spiritual things of God.So we have Satan as our enemy who is the father of ALL lies. That is his true power; if he can get us to believe his lies instead o God's truth we cannot believe for the inheiritance Jesus died to give us. Satan might even be trying to tell you that you are not a child of God. He might say: you have sinned to much, your not good enough to go heaven, your salvation didn't stick. Whatever, he says is a lie. Part of it might be some truth but, added up it makes a lie meant to miss lead you just so you are believing him and not God. If you are not sure if your saved commit or, re-commit your life to Jesus. Because it is God's will that none should perish. God is good He loves you and wants you to be blessed. He wants to give you everything He gave His son to you. Remember this; God loves all of His creation but, we are not His children untill we ask Jesus into our hearts as our Lord and savior. Because Jesus is the One who has addopted us as His brothers and sisters so His Father can be our Father. Therfore inheriting all our Savior has......believing His will. A person's will doesn't come into affect untill He dies. That is why He came from His throne, was born as a man so he could leave us a will so we could inherit the goodness of God. Since everything that is sin burns up in the presence God. Jesus out of the love for His Father was obedient to come to our world to bring us the truth and then die so He could take that sin from us to leave it in hell to be burned there. Now once we have the birth rite from Jesus we need to renew our mind so that we know what our inheritance is so we can claim it in faith. Ask God for faith to believe the fullnes of his word through revealation of the Holy Spirit |

4 | Earthly leadership/authority | Is 56:10 | C4truth | 141363 | ||
It's a tough one,I mean to be under such authrity. A few months ago I was in a simular situation. So, being that I was married and my husband wanted to stay. I didn't feel my pastor's ugodly behavior was worth quarreling over with my husband, and causing marrital division. So I prayed for my husband to see the truth. He did, and we left after 17 years. I confronted the pastor, it didn't seem to do any good. I felt I had exausted what I was to do. Then we were called to another church. I was supprised how this church fit better. But again, God knew better than I, what was best. Hebrews 13:7 Remember those who rule over you, who have spoken the word of God to you,whose faith follow, considering the outcome of their conduct. Many would say this means; thank the people who have ministered to you. And watch what they are blessed with. But I think God was giving us a warning, if needed. Because in the next verse Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. The warning part I would say: if the ones over you are preaching any thing but Christ, you will know by there fruit. The way they live will catch-up with them. Just as Jesus said, do as the Pharisees say, not as they do. In your situation I would ponder this thought: you will be judged by what you put over you. In the garden of eden the first act of being judged by -what you put over yourself happened. This is how: God said you can have anything in the garden except don't take of this tree-the tree of good and evil. Of course the serpant Satin convinced Eve and Adam by lies to eat it. Now as soon as they ate the forbidden fruit, they were considered followers of Satan. Why was that? Beleif is the truest form of worship. That is why you cannot please God with unbelief. You either believe God, or you don't. And if you are not believing God who are you believing? First you are believing a lie. Who is the father of lies? Satan! Who then did they put over themselves? Who did they believe? I'm not saying because the pastors wife is living a life of sin you will be judged as she. But I would think about praying for the sinner,and whoever else is involved. If the sin was done against you, forgive them. Remember: you will be forgiven as you forgive those who trespass against you. Vengance is mine saith the Lord...He dose not leave room for you to hold on to anything here. If your having trouble forgiving, ask for God's help. Scripture says, God cannot work in the situation until you give it up.God can't even start healing the injured untill forgiveness is given. Be careful, you will be judged by others, as you judge others. In a church enviroment we are to go and address the sinner 1 to 1. Remember we are to do all things in love. If that doesn't work bring another from church with you. Then if the situation continues bring it to the board. If things don't change then look the rest up in the scriptures. I seem to not be able to find the exact scripture. Sorry. If the pastor is aware of his wives sin, and your sure it is not something he agrees with. Pray for him and his family. God works things for the good of those who love Him. But, if the pastor defends his wive's sin, as not being sin. And you know it is. I'd question-do I think I will be taught the truth by this man. When in marrital problems sometimes we are blind. I think pastors are no different. But after a time we all have to face the truth. Pray and ask the Holy Spirit to minister to you. Do all that is said in the word,pray for peace and follow it in your decision making |

5 | Which book in the Bible do I commence | Bible general Archive 2 | C4truth | 141360 | ||
Jesus is the rock to which your foundation should be built on. So, if you have done that; Romans 10:9, or in other words, asked Jesus into your heart to be your Lord - over your life and, savior of your soul. Point I'm trying to make - Jesus is also called a stumbling block to those who try to understand His word/bible without being so to say in the club. That said, it is not saying you need a decoder ring to start reading the bible. But what you read will be more blessing than curse. Try the "one Year Bible". You read once a day and at the end of the year you will have read the whole bible. Every day has old and new testiment with proverbs readings. The readings start Jan. 1st so now would be a great time to start. I would also suggest to get a pictoral childrens bible that has the bible stories new and old put into storey form.It will be interesting and put you right up there with most people's understanding at church. Be patient with yourself when you read. If you don't understand as you read somehow it will make sense. You'll have times at church or, listening to others when you'll go-thats what that meant. Scriptures say God will give you wisdom if you ask for it. Pray for it. Remember God is not a liar so, if you don't understand right away don't cast judgement as to the meaning.And if what you are reading or hearing doesn't seem to line up with what you believe or have heard. It isn't God who is wrong.God is a good God, and loves us all keep believing in his goodness and ask for the wisdom to understand. Do you know what true understanding is? It is standing under God with all you are, to get all He has. Be patient He has alot to give. He wants you to prosper in all things.3 John 2, I think. I would rather be a fool in the eyes of man than a fool in the eyes of God. A fool is someone who knows the word of God and doesn't do it. Wisdom is more precious than gold, its what gets you the gold. God is the only one with wisdom. Ok, He made the wisdom and it is for all to have. And if you believe in Him you will have it. When I say believe in Him I mean: learn of Him as you are but, go for the whole God. do not let any one convince you He is anything less than his word says. always take God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit at their word. Even if your faith might not be as high as Gods word. keep believing and hearing and soon your faith will catch up with the word. |
