1 | Alternative to the term "Jesus is LORD"? | Deut 11:19 | Fellow Pilgrim | 175423 | ||
Steve Precisely! This is the thing that I believe most people miss. That's what Bishop Tom was talking about. So often, he says, we make the Salvation story revolve around us, when it should revolve around Jesus Christ - He is the Supreme Ruler of all things, and the question arise for all of us, "So what are you going to do about that? How does this change your world today?" I think we may have cheapened it (unintentionally maybe) with the WWJD slogan? What it is saying is absolutely correct...What Would Jesus Do...about justice, poverty, discrimination, the lost, etc. And I mean, what would He do about it, not on a global scale, but on a personal one-to-one basis, as He did when He walked this earth. Instead He calls us to do it now... To describe Jesus Christ as "the one, true and living God" may be a good way to explain His title in a way that folk can understand. So, if Jesus is LORD (or as you so rightly put it) "the one, true and living God", then every breathing moment of my life will be spent rejoicing that He even thinks of me, delights to walk with me through my day (just as He did with Adam and Eve in the garden), and actually enjoys it! What a motivation to put aside the sinful, earthly desires of my carnal nature. You have done well to bring this alternative. Maybe we need to bring out the fuller meaning as we initially speak with folk about who this Jesus really is. Much appreciated. Fellow Pilgrim |

2 | Will worshiping the Lord change in Rev? | Deut 11:19 | Searcher56 | 175434 | ||
Scripture ... Rev 4:10, 5:14, 7:11, 9:20, 11:16, 14:7, 15:4, 19:4, 19:10 ... When everyone else bows in worship, will those who have been mistaught about the Lordship of Christ have an excuse? Do we study the worship scenes in Revelation and practice it today? Will our knees bend? Have we cheapen the word worship, Lord, Alamighty, King ... God? Pligrim, I want you to answer, please ... as well as others. Searcher |

3 | Will worshiping the Lord change in Rev? | Deut 11:19 | hobbs | 175438 | ||
Dear Searcher, In answer to your Question, I offer the following verses. 1 Cor 2:14 But a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised. Rom 8:28 And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. Eph 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; I dare to say that the Church is not yet wholly sanctified; neither does it comprehend God's Word perfectly. Nevertheless, each and every saint has the righteousness of Christ imputed to him/her. We will be to occupied with oferring Him praises to even think of ourselves and the flaws that caused our groaning in the world that has now been replaced. Hobbs |
