1 | Praise the Lord! | Exodus | inmyheart | 67911 | ||
Tremere, We serve an awesome God! He has blessed each one of us with talent. I don't know the purpose God has for your life, using the talent He's blessed you with, but one thing is sure, it's in writing. Maybe God wants you to author a book, only God and you Knows. However, it is rare to see on this forum for someone to post, let's say, over ten post at one time, but there is no where in the "terms of use" that say's someone is not permitted to do so. I can't speak for other forum members, my experience is "you can't please everyone". Be obediant to God through our Lord and Savior Jesus and enjoy what God has called you to do. God bless you! (Sister) |

Jesus said you will know them by the fruit they bear. Ga. 5:24 says that they that are Christs have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. 1Jn 5:18 says whosever is born of God sinneth not. All we have to do is believe and confess with our mouth Ro. 10:9? Mt. 7 talks about the plant that grew but didn't bring forth fruit would be cast into the fire. Jesus went on to say in verse 21 "Not everyone that saith unto me Lord, Lord, (Adonai same as master) shall enter into the kingdom of heaven, but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many people say it is by simple faith we receive salvation. Obviously according to the law there is nothing we can do to attain it, but what we work to attain is favour I believe in his sight. He. 10:26 says if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth there remaineth no more sacrifice for our sins. Ga. 6:7-8 states "Be not deceived;God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. If we sow sin we will reap of sin which is death. By faith we believe that Jesus was the adequate propitiation for our sins. But we must continue good works to receive salvation. The famous passage from He 11 and also James chapter 2. In James he is addressing the church as they are judging the people and not counting the poor as highly as the rich he goes onto say that if you have faith without any evidence or works he goes on to say it's great you believe in one God but that doesn't save you. For the devils believe, you have to have some works or evidence because faith without actions is dead it's not real faith. Verse 24 he says ye see then that by WORKS a man is justified and not by faith alone. Ultimately there is no amount of "works" we can do to attain salvation. But God will not be mocked we must live holy. In I Co. 6:9 it tells us the Unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God. 2 Co. 5:17 says any man that is in Christ Jesus will be a new creature, old things are passed away, and all things are new. 1 Jn. 3:24 says we know that we abide in him and he in us if we keep his commandments. There should be a major change in ones life if they truly are saved. I don't say this to condemn but the scriptures point to it. As Jesus says (mt7:21) Just because we call him Lord doesnt mean were saved. I don't think every one that confesses the Lord Jesus, and "believes in their heart" will be saved. That is if there is no change in their life. There has to be a change. We are no longer married to the law and sin but died released from that and remarried unto Christ and Good works. · Tit. 2:11-12 “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world.” · Ph. 1:10-11 Paul tells the church at Philippi they need to be filled with the fruits of righteousness that they may be without offense or guilt in the end. · Col. 3:12 says the elect of God are HOLY · I The. 1:3 Paul tells the church at Thessalonica that he remembered the “work” of their faith…. Then in vs. 6-7 says they have been good examples to other followers · 2 Pe. 1:3-10 says we are called to righteousness that we might make sure our calling. · I Pe. 3:12 “The eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.” |

Isaiah 28 says we are to take the word of God and add line upon line precept upon precept here a little there a little. Paul said "out of the mouth of two or three witnesses let every word be established." We cannot look at one scripture and think that is the whole picture God was trying to paint. The bible says if we don't do the will of the Father it doesn't matter what miracles we have performed we won't see heaven yet the scripture in Romans states if we confess with our mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in our hearts... we will be saved. I don't mean to be negative about this but I am adament about this. the Greek word used a majority of the time for believe is: "Pisteuo" BELIEVE: Greek equivalent “PISTEUO”(4100) Pistueo means: to believe, put ones faith in, trust, with An implication that actions based on that trust would follow. Pistueo is translated into English as Believe(115), Believeth(77), believest(8), committed(3), committed unto(1) etc It's interested the word is also translated into committed. I think sometimes words can lose meaning over time and we should go back to the original text to find what God was really trying to portray. Anyhow I don't mean to come accross offensive. So God Bless all of you. (The followers where told, when they asked about John and his followers babtism being different than theirs if they were quote christians and they were told if they profess or claim Jesus they are my sheep. I know many of us here may disagree about some things but ultimately we all believe in Jesus so we are all family. People in Church are always learning some never able to come to a knowledge of the full truth, but for all I am concerned I appreciate everyone on this board. I am a man with a passion for God a passion for his Word. I love to discuss and study the depths and heights of Gods mysteries. We are alike and I would call all of you friends even if we don't agree on some things. God Bless you all, Casey |
