RESURRECTION POWER

RESURRECTION POWER!!!

Philippians 3:9-11 And be found In Him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of The LAW, But That Which Is Through The Faith Of Christ, The Righteousness Which Is Of God By Faith: That I may know Him, And The Power Of His Resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; If by any means I might attain unto The Resurrection of the dead.

Are you AFRAID of dying? Are you AFRAID in general, of anything or everything?

Let's look at the word fear. 

First, it is a spirit. 

2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of Power, And Of Love, And Of  Sound Mind.

People that are afraid of death, have the spirit of fear. When you have the spirit of fear, you do not know The True Power Of The Resurrection Of Jesus As Christ.

You are doubting Him, And His Whole Identity. You are not trusting His Word, of your Resurrection. You have denied, His Power, Over The Death He Has Concurred. In truth, You are denying Eternal Life. 

We are to live our lives on this earth in Power, Love, and with a Sound Mind. 

Faith in Christ Jesus, are those and more. 

Faith knows The Power Of The Lord Jesus, as The Only Begotten Son, Of The One True God. 

Faith assures us that Jesus Is The  Christ, Raised From The Dead, Sitting At The Right Hand Of The Father. 

Faith assures us that our earthly home is for a short time, but our Heavenly Home Is Eternal. 

Faith assures us Of The Love, That Christ Jesus Has For Us. 

Faith is the very opposite to fear. Fear is doubt, Faith is Assurance. 

Faith Is Power over death, and doubt.

Faith Is A Sound Mind, Given To Us By God Himself. 

Faith Is The Very Mind Of Christ.

1 Corinthians 2:16 For who hath known the mind of The Lord, that he may instruct Him? But We Have The Mind Of Christ.

Faith Gives Us Peace. 

Faith assures us that we have Peace With God. 

Faith assures us, that we are Now Children Of God, Heirs, and Joint Heirs, with Jesus Himself. 

Fear is loveless. Fear brings hatred and mistrust with it. Fear brings an unsound mind. Fear will make you believe that you can not leave your home. Fear brings worry. Fear brings in thoughts of the world. Fear makes you trust in drugs or other addictions. Fear brings illness, ulcers, sadness, and depression.  

Jesus Said He Came That Our Joy May Be Full.

John 15:11 These Things Have I Spoken Unto You, That My Joy Might Remain In You, And That Your Joy Might Be Full.

John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, That In Me ye might have Peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: But Be Of Good Cheer; I Have Overcome The World.

Faith Is Knowing Jesus, The Christ In His Perfect Love. 

1 John 4:18 There is no fear In Love; 

But Perfect Love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made Perfect In Love.

Faith Is Knowing That We Are Righteous, And We Will Be Resurrected, As Christ, Jesus Was.

Faith Is Knowing, That We Will Behold The Lamb Of God!

Faith Is Knowing Jesus, The Christ In His Resurrection Power.

HAVE YOU TRULY BEEN BORN AGAIN

HAVE YOU TRULY BEEN BORN AGAIN?

1 Corinthians 15:34,36 Awake to Righteousness, and sin not; for some have not The Knowledge Of God: I speak this to your shame. [36] Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:

Colossians 2:13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, Hath He Quickened Together With Him, HAVING FORGIVEN YOU ALL TRESPASSES;

Colossians 2:14 BLOTTING OUT The Handwriting Of Ordinances That Was Against Us, Which Was Contrary To Us, And Took It Out Of The Way, Nailing It To His Cross;

1 Peter 1:22-23 Seeing YE HAVE PURIFIED YOUR SOULS IN OBEYING THE TRUTH THROUGH THE SPIRIT unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: [23] BEING BORN AGAIN, not of corruptible seed, BUT OF INCORRUPTIBLE, BY THE WORD OF GOD, WHICH LIVETH AND ABIDETH FOR EVER.

John 3:3-7 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be Born Again, he cannot see The Kingdom Of God. [4] Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? [5] Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water And Of The Spirit, he cannot enter into The Kingdom of God. [6] That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and THAT WHICH IS BORN OF THE SPIRIT IS SPIRIT. [7] Marvel not that I said unto thee, YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN.

1 Corinthians 6:17 BUT HE THAT IS JOINED UNTO THE LORD IS ONE SPIRIT.

Romans 8:9 BUT YE ARE NOT IN THE FLESH, BUT IN THE SPIRIT, IF SO BE THAT THE SPIRIT OF GOD DWELL IN YOU. NOW IF ANY MAN HAVE NOT THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST, HE IS NONE OF HIS. 

1 John 3:6,9 WHOSOEVER ABIDETH IN HIM SINNETH NOT: WHOSOEVER SINNETH HATH NOT SEEN HIM, NEITHER KNOWN HIM. [9] WHOSOEVER IS BORN OF GOD DOTH NOT COMMIT SIN; FOR HIS SEED REMAINETH IN HIM: AND HE CANNOT SIN, BECAUSE HE IS BORN OF  GOD!

ARE YOU BORN AGAIN?  IF YOU ARE BORN AGAIN, THEN STOP SAYING YOU ARE NOT!  WHEN YOU SAY YOU ARE A SINNER OR THE WRETCHED MAN IN THE FLESH, YOU ARE SAYING THAT THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS THE CHRIST IS NOT ENOUGH, TO MAKE YOU ALIVE, TO SAVE YOU, AND TO KEEP YOU WASHED CLEAN!!!

LAWFUL

LAWFUL

1 Corinthians 6:12 All things are LAWFUL unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are LAWFUL for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

LAWFUL: not against the law; officially accepted by the authority.

EXPEDIENT: fit or suitable for the purpose; proper; advisable.

POWER: the capacity or ability to direct or influence the behavior of, or the course of events.

1 Corinthians 10:23 All things are LAWFUL for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are LAWFUL for me, but all things edify not.

EDIFY: to instruct or benefit, especially morally or Spiritually; uplift.

Some have taken the words of Paul and decided I can live anyway, do anything I want because I am Saved. This statement is true, however, when you are Truly Saved your desire is not on fulfilling the lust of the flesh, as you did before Salvation. You are Born Again Of The Spirit and He leads you into all Truth. The Holy Spirit teaches us what is acceptable to The Holy God, and what is not.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the Kingdom Of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit The Kingdom Of God.

FORNICATOR: a single person who has sex with someone to who they are not married.

IDOLATER: One who worships idols, one who blindly or excessively admires or adores another.

ADULTERER: a person who has a consensual sexual relationship or encounter between someone married and a person they're not married.

EFFEMINATE: a person who has the embodiment of traits in a boy or man that are more often associated with feminine behavior, mannerism, style, or gender roles rather than with traditionally masculine behavior, a woman who has masculine traits, a woman who has unwomanly traits.

ABUSERS OF THEMSELVES WITH MANKIND: sexual relations with the same sex as yourself, homosexual relations.

THIEVES: people who steal another person's property, especially by stealth and without using force or violence.

COVETOUS: having or showing a great desire to possess something belonging to someone else.

DRUNKARDS: a habitually drunk person.

REVILERS: people who use words to damage, control, or insult someone's character or reputation.

EXTORTIONERS: people who get money from another by using force or threats.

Do you have sex with people that you are not married to? You are not Spiritual.

Do you do drugs, that is not legal? You are not Spiritual. 

Do you steal? You are not Spiritual.

Do you lie? You are not Spiritual.

Do you commit adultery? You are not Spiritual.

Do you covet? You are not Spiritual.

Do you live in homosexuality? You are not Spiritual.

Do you revile? You are not Spiritual.

You are unrighteous! You are not Saved! 

You are fleshly, carnal-minded people, you are still at enmity with God.

YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN OF THE SPIRIT!

1 Corinthians 6:11 And such WERE some of you: BUT, YE ARE WASHED, BUT YE ARE SANCTIFIED, BUT YE ARE JUSTIFIED IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS AND BY THE SPIRIT OF OUR GOD.

SEE HOW THE SCRIPTURE IS SAYING, YOU WERE THESE THINGS, BUT YOU ARE NO LONGER TO DO THEM! IF YOU ARE THEN YOU ARE NOT TRULY SAVED!

Galatians 5:24-25 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

2 Corinthians 13:5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in The Faith; prove your own selves. Know ye, not your selves, how that Jesus Christ Is In You, except ye be reprobates?

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 What? know ye not that your body is The Temple Of The Holy Ghost which is in you, Which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are Bought With A Price: therefore Glorify God In Your Body, And In Your Spirit, Which Are God's.

LIKEWISE, RECKON YOURSELF INDEED DEAD UNTO SIN

THE LAW AND SIN GO TOGETHER, WITHOUT LAW, THERE IS NO SIN! THE KNOWLEDGE OF SIN, DEATH, AND THE CURSE ALL CAME BY THE LAW!

Romans 4:15 Because The LAW worketh wrath: FOR WHERE NO LAW IS, THERE IS NO TRANSGRESSION!!!

Romans 7:9 For I was Alive without The LAW once: but when The Commandment came, sin revived, and I died.

PAUL IS SPEAKING TO THE JEWISH PEOPLE, WHO KNOW THE LAW! 

PAUL IS TELLING THEM THAT THE LAW, HAS DOMINION OVER MAN, AS LONG AS HE LIVES, BUT WHEN HE DIES, THE LAW HAS NO MORE DOMINION OVER HIM.

Romans 7:1-8 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know The LAW) how that The LAW hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? For the woman which hath an husband is bound by The LAW to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from The LAW of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she IS FREE FROM THAT LAW; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.  Wherefore, my brethren, YE ALSO ARE BECOME DEAD TO THE LAW BY THE BODY OF CHRIST; that ye should be Married o Another, even TO HIM WHO IS RAISED FROM THE DEAD, that we should bring forth fruit unto God. For when we WERE in the flesh, the motions of sins, which WERE By The LAW, DID work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death. BUT NOW WE ARE DELIVERED FROM THE LAW, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter. What shall we say then? Is The LAW sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by The LAW: for I had not known lust, except The LAW had said, Thou shalt not covet. But sin, taking occasion by The Commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without The LAW sin was dead.

Romans 6:11 Likewise Reckon Ye Also Yourselves To Be Dead Indeed Unto Sin, But ALIVE Unto GOD Through Jesus Christ Our Lord.

DEATH HAS NO MORE DOMINION OVER, HIM, OR YOU!

Romans 6:9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over Him.

SIN HAS NO MORE DOMINION OVER YOU!

Romans 6:14 For Sin Shall Not Have Dominion Over You: FOR YE ARE NOT UNDER THE LAW, BUT UNDER GRACE!!!

YOU THAT WANT TO BE UNDER THE LAW

Galatians 4:21 Tell me, ye that desire to be under The LAW, do ye not hear The LAW?

Galatians 3:10 For as many as are of the works of The LAW are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in ALL THINGS which are written in The Book of The LAW TO DO THEM.

Galatians 3:13 Christ hath Redeemed us from the curse of The LAW, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

Galatians 3:23-26 But before Faith came, we were kept under The LAW, shut up unto The Faith which should afterwards be revealed. Wherefore The LAW was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be Justified By Faith. But after that Faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all the children of God By Faith In Christ Jesus.

Romans 6:14-15,17-18 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under The LAW, but under Grace. What then? shall we sin, because we are not under The LAW, but under grace? God forbid. But God be Thanked, that ye WERE the servants of sin, BUT ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of Righteousness.

Romans 4:14-15 For if they which are of The LAW be heirs, Faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect: Because The LAW worketh wrath: FOR WHERE NO LAW IS, THERE IS NO TRANSGRESSION.

1 John 3:4,6 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also The LAW: FOR SIN IS THE TRANSGRESSION OF THE LAW. [6] Whosoever abideth in Him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen Him, neither known Him.

ARE YOU SEALED, OR NOT

ARE YOU SEALED, OR NOT?

1 Corinthians 3:16 Know Ye Not That Ye Are The Temple Of God, And That The Spirit Of God Dwelleth In You?

1 John 4:13 Hereby Know We That We Dwell In Him, And He In Us Because He Hath Given Us Of His Spirit.

Romans 8:26 Likewise The Spirit Also Helpeth Our Infirmities: For We Know Not What We Should Pray For As We Ought: But The Spirit Itself Maketh Intercession For Us With Groanings Which Cannot Be Uttered.

2 Corinthians 1:22 Who Hath Also Sealed Us, And Given The Earnest Of The Spirit In Our Hearts.

Ephesians 4:30 And Grieve Not The Holy Spirit Of God, Whereby Ye Are Sealed Unto The Day Of Redemption.

Ephesians 4:29 Let No Corrupt Communication Proceed Out Of Your Mouth, But That Which Is Good To The Use Of Edifying, That It May Minister Grace Unto The Hearers.

Matthew 28:19 Go Ye Therefore, And Teach All Nations, Baptizing Them In The Name Of The Father, And Of The Son, And Of The Holy Ghost:

THIS IS WHY WE HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT SEALING US

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS PROTECTING US, AND ASSURING US, THAT HE IS DWELLING IN US UNTIL THE DAY OF REDEMPTION.

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS, LITERALLY KEEPING US FROM EVER BEING UN-SAVED.

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS ALSO GIVING US THE POWER OF GOD TO PREACH THE GOSPEL OF JESUS, THE CHRIST TO THE LOST! YOU ARE SAVED TO THE UTTERMOST!!!

Hebrews 7:25 Wherefore He Is Able Also To Save Them To The Uttermost That Come Unto God By Him, Seeing He Ever Liveth To Make Intercession For Them.

STOP BEING DECEIVED!

STOP LETTING SO-CALLED, PREACHERS AND TEACHERS, TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE BARELY SAVED! THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE SAYING, WHEN THEY TELL YOU, THAT YOU ARE STILL A SINNER, THEY ARE ACTUALLY SAYING, THAT JESUS' BLOOD IS NOT POWERFUL ENOUGH TO KEEP YOU CLEAN, TO KEEP YOU SAVED!!! YOU ARE NO LONGER IN THE FLESH, AND THAT OLD WRETCHED, SINNER MAN! YOU ARE NOW A CHILD OF GOD IF YOU HAVE BEEN WASHED IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS, AND SEALED WITH HIS HOLY SPIRIT!!!

YOU HAVE EITHER BEEN BORN AGAIN OF THE SPIRIT OR YOU HAVEN'T BEEN.  YOU HAVE BEEN SAVED, WASHED CLEAN IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS, OR YOU HAVEN'T BEEN, IT IS EITHER, A YES OR A NO ANSWER, NOT BOTH!

Romans 8:9 But Ye Are Not In The Flesh, But In The Spirit, If So Be That The Spirit Of God Dwell In You. Now If Any Man Have Not The Spirit Of Christ, He Is None Of His.

 

1 John 3:6-7,9 Whosoever Abideth In Him Sinneth Not: Whosoever Sinneth Hath Not Seen Him, Neither Known Him. [7] Little Children, Let No Man Deceive You: He That Doeth Righteousness Is Righteous, Even As He Is Righteous. [9] Whosoever Is Born Of God Doth Not Commit Sin; For His Seed Remaineth In Him: And He Cannot Sin, Because He Is Born Of God.

THE TRUE CHURCH

THE TRUE CHURCH!!!

The True Church is, Born Again, Blood Washed, Holy Spirit Sealed, Believers In The Sacrifice Of Jesus, As The Christ.  We Believe That He Is The Only Begotten Son, Of The One And ONLY TRUE AND LIVING GOD!!!  We Believe that JEHOVAH, JESUS, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT MAKE UP THE GOD, THAT WE LOVE AND SERVE!!!  We Believe These Three Are One!!! 

No other person can cleanse from sin, nor can they forgive sin.

Jesus, THE CHRIST, IS THE ONLY WAY TO GOD, THE FATHER!!! BELIEF IN HIM, AND  HIS SACRIFICE ALONE IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE SAVED!!! The True Church is made of people that have been Saved!!! A Building of Lively, Stones! Some seem to believe that a building made out of wood, brick, and mortar are churches, which is very wrong. A building made with hands is exactly that. The True Church is Created By GOD HIMSELF!!! A building made by man is an assembly place, for The True Church to Gather And WORSHIP, TO GIVE PRAISE TO THE ONE AND ONLY, TRUE GOD!!! The assembly place is for Brothers and Sisters In Christ to come together to help each other through difficult times and rejoice with them in good times.  We are to learn from each other how to grow in boldness in our Faith. We are told to assemble ourselves, even more, when we see, The Day OF THE LORD Approaching. The Glorious Day Of Our LORD JESUS, AND HIS RETURN!!! We are not assembling to downgrade others or to run others down, but to Pray for the lost and healing for souls, and sick bodies.  We are Called to Love and be at Peace, To Be In Unity, To Be One, As Jesus And His Father Are One. There is absolutely no mention anywhere in The Bible of denominations. Denominations are also man-made.  Denominations divide the Children Of GOD. Denomination does not bring Unity to the children is GOD, nor does it bring Peace to the Brethren, quite the opposite.  Stop letting people confuse you, read your Bible for yourself. Stop letting others' legalism control you Spiritually. Going to a certain place or doing a certain thing, does not make you A True Believer! Faith in Jesus Christ alone does. Jesus said where two or more are Gathered In My Name, I am in the midst of you! Love is how we are known as disciples of Jesus, He said they will know that you are My disciples for the love you have for one another. When we love each other, we don't misuse or mistreat each other. We don't go about gossiping and lying to, or on each other.  Know your place in Christ Jesus! You Are A Child Of GOD!!! LOVE LIKE IT!!!

HONOR GOD!!! LOVE ONE ANOTHER!!!

HONOR GOD!!! LOVE ONE ANOTHER!!!

1 Thessalonians 4:2-9 For ye know what Commandments we gave you by The Lord Jesus. For this is The Will Of God even your Sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in Sanctification and Honour; Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God: That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that The Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and Testified. For God hath not Called us unto uncleanness, but unto Holiness. He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us His Holy Spirit. But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: For Ye, Yourselves Are Taught Of God To Love One Another.

SANCTIFICATION: THE ACTION OF MAKING OR DECLARING SOMETHING HOLY, THE ACTION OR PROCESS OF BEING FREED FROM SIN OR PURIFIED

CONCUPISCENCE:LUST; UNLAWFUL OR IRREGULAR DESIRE OF SEXUAL PLEASURE

 FORNICATION: SINGLE PEOPLE THAT ARE NOT MARRIED TO EACH OTHER.

DESPISETH:  TO REGARD WITH UTTER CONTEMPT, DISDAIN, SCORN, HAVE NO USE FOR, LOOK DOWN ON, LOATHE, HATE.

PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER!!!

James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another and Pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent Prayer Of A Righteous Man, availeth much.

YOU ARE NOW, A CHILD OF GOD

YOU ARE NOW, A CHILD OF GOD!!!

1 Timothy 1:5-11 Now the end of the Commandment is Charity, Out Of a Pure Heart, and Of A Good Conscience, and Of Faith Unfeigned: From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling; Desiring to be teachers of The LAW; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm. But we know that the LAW is good if a man use it LAWFULLY; Knowing this, that The LAW is not made for a Righteous man, but for the LAWLESS and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to Sound Doctrine; According to The Glorious Gospel Of The Blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

Romans 7:5-6 For WHEN WE WERE in the flesh, the motions of sins, which WERE by The LAW, DID work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death. BUT NOW WE ARE DELIVERED FROM THE LAW, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in Newness Of Spirit, and not in The Oldness Of The Letter.

Romans 4:11 And he received the sign of circumcision, a Seal Of The Righteousness Of The Faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:

2 Corinthians 1:22 Who hath also Sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that, ye heard The Word Of Truth, The Gospel Of Your Salvation: In Whom also after that ye Believed, Ye, Were Sealed With That Holy Spirit Of Promise.

Ephesians 4:30 And grieve not The Holy Spirit of God, Whereby Ye Are Sealed Unto The Day Of Redemption.

OUR SEAL OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IS THE HOLY SPIRIT!!! 

A SEAL, SECURES AND KEEPS OUT CONTAMINATES. A SEAL IS CLOSED UNTIL IT IS OPENED BY THE ONE, IT IS INTENDED FOR!!!

WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE FOREVER GODS', YOU HAVE REST, AND PEACE FOR YOUR SOUL!!! YOU STOP LOOKING AT YOURSELF AND THE THINGS YOU HAVE DONE WRONG, AND START SEEING YOURSELF, AS GOD SEES YOU!!! YOU ARE, A CHILD, HOLY, RIGHTEOUS, AND REDEEMED!!!

PRAISE YOU, LORD JESUS!!!

EVERYTHING CHANGED

EVERYTHING CHANGED!!!

IN THE GARDEN, THAT WAS IN A PLACE CALLED EDEN.

God created the Heavens and the Earth.

The Garden, which was in Eden, was a beautiful Paradise, Created by God, for man to live in. Perfection. 

EVERYTHING CHANGED When Satan was cast out of Heaven and was thrown down to Earth. SIN CAME INTO PARADISE WHEN ADAM ATE FROM THE TREE OF KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL. Adam and all the people were cast out of Paradise. 

EVERYTHING CHANGED When God chose

The Prophets to came and lead the people, they had True Prophets, they also had false prophets. They had Good Kings and they had evil Kings. They followed God, and they rebelled against God. They were free and they were in bondage. Through it all, God still loved them and sent Prophets to tell them about, The Christ that was to come. The Prophets Prophesied, about His Birth, Being The Holy One Of God, His Life,  His Torture, His Death, His Burial, His Going into Hell, His Resurrection, and His Being Seated At The Right Hand Of God. This was an ongoing cycle of the Chosen people of God Until Jesus Was Born.

EVERYTHING CHANGED WHEN Jesus, The Christ Came.

Jesus was Born Of A Virgin, just as the Prophets had said, He lived The Perfect Life, Kept The LAW Of God, given to Moses for the Jewish people to live by. HE KEPT EVERY JOT AND EVERY TITTLE! HE KEPT EVERY PROPHECY TO PERFECTION!!! Jesus walked on this Earth fulfilling The Perfect Will Of His Father. He lived The Perfect Life God Commanded Of the Jewish people. When Jesus Lived His Life,  He Lived His Life By The Perfect LAW Of God, given unto Moses, Holy!!!  Jesus taught the people, how God Required The LAW to be kept. The people could not live that perfect life, so God sent Jesus to Live IT, for them. Jesus was The Only One Who Ever Did!!! No other person in history could, yes it is true Enoch pleased God and was translated, but he was not "perfect" enough to be, "The Perfect Sacrifice". Jesus, The Christ IS The Only One God Created, TO BE The Perfect, Spotless Sacrifice. There is only One Cause, Jesus came for,  and it is, To Be The Perfect Sacrifice that will Redeem The People Back To God. Jesus, The Christ, Restored the relationship between God and man. The very relationship, that was Originally Created By God In The Garden. Once, Jesus, The Christ Defeated sin, and the curse of sin, which is hell,  He Ascended Into Heaven And Is Sitting On The Right Hand Of God. Jesus said that He will return, but until then, He will not leave us comfortless, He said that He will Pray To His Father to send us another Comforter.  

Jesus did ascend into Heaven and The Father did send The Holy Spirit.

EVERYTHING CHANGED when The Comforter, The Holy Spirit, came. The Holy Spirit is also called, The Spirit Of Christ.  The Holy Spirits' job is to reveal Jesus, As The Christ, and to convict the sinner man of sin. The more The Holy Spirit reveals Jesus As The Christ to the sinner man. The more convicted the sinner man is, by The Holy Spirit, the more the sinner man sees how vile he truly is. As The Holy Spirit convicts the sinner man of his sin, The Holy Spirit is showing the sinner man that he needs Salvation. The Holy Spirit is convicting the sinner man, but in the same instance, The 

Holy Spirit is Revealing Jesus As The Solution to his sin. After the sinner man recognizes himself as a sinner and needs a Savior, he then asks Jesus Christ to forgive him and Save him of his sins.

EVERYTHING CHANGED, WHEN Jesus Christ  Forgives, the sinner man of his sins, and washes the sinner man IN HIS OWN BLOOD! JESUS WASHES HIM CLEAN! 

The man is NOW MADE RIGHTEOUS, He HAS BEEN BORN AGAIN OF THE SPIRIT!!! The Holy Spirit Seals the Righteous, Clean man. The man is now a Child Of God and Kept Sealed By The Holy Spirit, Until The Day Of Redemption!

LIVE IN THE VICTORY THAT JESUS, THE CHRIST, LIVED, AND DIED, FOR YOU TO HAVE!!!

LAKE OF FIRE

A PLACE CALLED: THE LAKE OF FIRE! 

Revelation 20:10,12-15 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another Book was opened, which is The Book Of Life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and hell delivered up the dead which was in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. [15] And whosoever was not found written in The Book Of Life was cast into the lake of fire.

STOP TELLING PEOPLE, AN "EMPTY SPACE", "DARKNESS " OR "SEPARATION FROM GOD" IS WHERE THEY GO WITHOUT THE SAVING GRACE OF JESUS, THE CHRIST! THERE IS A LITERAL PLACE, AND IT IS CALLED THE LAKE OF FIRE! THEY WILL BE SEPARATED FROM GOD SURE ENOUGH, BUT IN UNENDING, PHYSICAL TORMENT! Children may not need to know all about this place, but adults do, especially if you are teaching The Word Of GOD!

TRUE FAITH

Matthew 9:20-22 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind Him and touched the hem of His garment: For she said within herself, If I may but touch His garment, I shall be whole. But Jesus turned Him about, and when He saw her, He said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy Faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.

Matthew 14:36 And besought Him that they might only touch the hem of His garment: and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.

Mark 5:27-34 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched His garment. For she said If I may touch but His clothes, I shall be whole. And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. And Jesus, immediately knowing in Himself that Virtue had gone out of Him, turned Him about in the press, and said, Who touched My clothes? And His disciples said unto Him, Thou seest the multitude thronging Thee, and sayest Thou, Who touched Me? And He looked round about to see her that had done this thing. But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before Him, and told Him all the truth. And He said unto her, Daughter, thy Faith hath made thee whole; go in Peace and be whole of thy plague.

People seem to think, I have Faith and I can do it. What is your Faith based on, yourself, or is it in Jesus?

The healings and every other Miracle is about The Power Of Jesus, The Christ!

Our Faith is solely in Jesus, The Christ as Healer, not in ourselves!  Our Faith -IS- that we know Him as The Only Begotten Son Of GOD And our Savior, our Miracle Worker. Faith is that we know, that if we go to Him, we can and will be healed. It is His Power, His Virtue, that does the healing for us. FAITH IS ALL ABOUT TOUCHING JESUS, THE CHRIST. Faith IN ourselves is, "faith In our faith" and is nothing. There is no True Faith, apart from The Faith in Him, and in, His actions alone! 

Good morning! PRAISE THE LORD!!!

FALSE FAITH

1 Timothy 6:5-12 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of The Truth, supposing that gain is Godliness: from such withdraw thyself. [6] But Godliness with contentment is great gain. [7] For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. [8] And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. [9] But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. [10] For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from The Faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. [11] But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after Righteousness, Godliness, Faith, Love, Patience, Meekness. [12] Fight The Good Fight Of Faith, lay hold on Eternal Life, whereunto thou art also Called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

I see posts, saying, if you don't share, then you are ashamed to be a Christian. I see others, saying, things like, if you like and share, or if you type, "Amen", then you will be Blessed, they say, you will receive a blessing in the next few hours, and most of the blessings are talking about, is money. 

STOP IT! 

FIRSTLY, WHETHER YOU DO, OR DO NOT SHARE SOMETHING, SOMEONE POSTED, DOES NOT MEAN, (AS THEY WOULD SUGGEST), THAT YOU DON'T LOVE JESUS! YOUR RELATIONSHIP IS IN YOUR HEART, NOT IN THEIR CONDEMNATION!

SECOND, THOSE POSTS ABOUT MONEY, ARE FORTUNE-TELLING! STOP BEING MANIPULATED, BY WITCHCRAFT!

THE SCRIPTURES, DO NOT BEAR OUT THE (NAME IT CLAIM IT),  DESIRE FOR FORTUNE! 

GOD BLESSES WITH MONEY TRUE ENOUGH, BUT, THIS SPEAKING IT INTO FRUITION, IS NOT OF THE TRUE FAITH! ASK AND YE SHALL RECEIVE, IS TRUE, BUT OUR PRAYER FOR FINANCIAL GAIN, IS TO BE A "HELP" FOR US AND OTHERS, NOT JUST TO BE RICH! HE KNOWS WHAT WE NEED BEFORE WE ASK. WE ARE TO ASK HIM, AND IF HE DECIDES IT IS WHAT IS BEST FOR US, THEN HE WILL GIVE HIS BLESSING OF MONEY. ONLY, IF YOU DON'T ASK AMISS, TO HEAP IT UPON YOURSELF! STOP BEING DUPED. YOU ARE BEING 1SEDUCED INTO A FALSE FAITH! 

WITH MUCH LOVE!

MEAN PEOPLE

Have you, or do you know anyone that has been, verbally abused? Have you ever asked yourself, why people are so mean? I started thinking on this subject and came up with this thought. I will go ahead and say, mean people, are not of GOD, because of their evil content. What is in the heart, comes out of the mouth.

Luke 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good, and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaketh.

I can also say, that mean people say abusive things, to make you feel inferior, and themselves superior. Mean people see something in others, that they don't have, but wish they did. They see something in others that is good, and is an attribute, that they themselves lack. Mean people belittle others, because they are jealous, and are desirous of the qualities such as goodness, attitude, looks, accomplishments, or anything else, they are envious to have. In themselves, they truly are feeling that you are to be blamed, for their shortcomings. They call others, the very things that they are feeling about themselves. They call others,  worthless, ugly, trash, and every degrading name they can think of, because of the evil that is in themselves, and the goodness that they can see that is in their victims. 

KNOW THIS, GOD LOVES YOU AND HE DOES NOT MAKE MISTAKES!!!  

Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

PRAISE THE LORD, FOR YOU  ARE FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE!!! 

Psalm 139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

Stop listening to the lies of the devil!  

Satan has always tried to make man think that he is lacking, and others are superior. He wants people to believe, that they need to be like others, these thoughts come out of envy.

Genesis 3:4-5 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. 

We know that GOD IS SUPERIOR TO ALL!!! 

Still, Satan could not contain his jealousy of GOD so much that, he was literally miserable in Paradise! Satan is jealous of GOD and wants to be equal with GOD, that is why GOD threw him out of Heaven. His "inferiority" demonic spirit, is the spirit he uses on people today. Mean people are looking at others with such envy, they cannot realize their own, true worth. They are so overtaken with jealousy of others, they are oblivious to their own attributes and accomplishments. 

When my kids came home upset because someone has been mean to them, I would tell them, they are jealous of you. They thought I was just being Mommy, and trying to make them feel better, but I was telling them the truth. 

Don't let mean people make you feel bad about yourself, Pray for them and their Salvation, because they need it! Get out of your pity party and get on your knees in battle, because that is exactly what is happening against you. DON'T RETALIATE!!!! NEVER BE GUILTY OF LETTING THE DEMONIC SPIRIT OF MEAN PEOPLE BE ON YOU! NEVER GIVE IN TO THEIR WAYS!

REALIZE THAT YOU ARE IN A SPIRITUAL WARFARE! THROUGH GOD AND THE POWER OF HIS MIGHT IS HOW YOU WIN THE VICTORY OVER EVERY FIERY DART THAT IS THROWN AT YOU!!! 

Ephesians 6:10-18 Finally, my brethren, BE STRONG IN THE LORD, AND IN THE POWER OF HIS MIGHT. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 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. Wherefore take unto you THE WHOLE ARMOUR OF GOD, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand, Therefore, Having Your Loins Girt About With Truth, And Having On The Breastplate Of Righteousness; And your Feet Shod With The Preparation Of The Gospel Of Peace; Above all, taking The Shield Of Faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the FIERY DARTS OF THE WICKED. And Take The Helmet Of Salvation, And The Sword Of The Spirit, Which Is The Word Of God: PRAYING ALWAYS with all prayer and supplication In The Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

True enough you need to know your enemy and his tactics, BUT YOU HAVE TO KNOW WHO GOD IS, AND IN HIS POWER, AND IN HIS MIGHT,  IS HOW YOU WILL WIN THE VICTORY!!!

Good morning! PRAISE THE LORD!!!

UNDER THE LAW

UNDER THE LAW?

Galatians 3:21-27 Is The LAW then against The Promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a LAW given which could have given Life, verily Righteousness should have been by The LAW. But The Scripture hath concluded all under sin, that The Promise By Faith Of Jesus Christ might be given to them that Believe. But before Faith came, we were kept under The LAW, shut up unto The Faith which should afterwards be revealed. Wherefore THE LAW WAS OUR SCHOOLMASTER TO BRING US UNTO CHRIST, that we might be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH. BUT AFTER THAT FAITH IS COME, WE ARE NO LONGER UNDER A SCHOOLMASTER. FOR YE ARE ALL THE CHILDREN OF GOD BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS. FOR AS MANY OF YOU AS HAVE BEEN Baptized Into Christ HAVE PUT ON CHRIST!

WE WERE UNDER THE LAW (WAS) UNTIL WE COME TO THE SAVING KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST JESUS! AFTER SALVATION WE ARE UNDER GRACE!

Romans 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: FOR YE ARE NOT UNDER THE LAW, BUT UNDER GRACE!!!

PRAISE YOU I LORD JESUS THE CHRIST, THE PERFECT SACRIFICE!!!

Good morning! PRAISE THE LORD!!!

HAVE YOU TRULY BEEN BORN AGAIN

 HAVE YOU TRULY BEEN BORN AGAIN?

1 Corinthians 15:34,36 Awake to Righteousness, and sin not; for some have not The Knowledge Of God: I speak this to your shame. [36] Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:

Colossians 2:13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, Hath He Quickened Together With Him, HAVING FORGIVEN YOU ALL TRESPASSES;

Colossians 2:14 BLOTTING OUT The Handwriting Of Ordinances That Was Against Us, Which Was Contrary To Us, And Took It Out Of The Way, Nailing It To His Cross;

1 Peter 1:22-23 Seeing YE HAVE PURIFIED YOUR SOULS IN OBEYING THE TRUTH THROUGH THE SPIRIT unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: [23] BEING BORN AGAIN, not of corruptible seed, BUT OF INCORRUPTIBLE, BY THE WORD OF GOD, WHICH LIVETH AND ABIDETH FOR EVER.

John 3:3-7 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be Born Again, he cannot see The Kingdom Of God. [4] Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? [5] Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water And Of The Spirit, he cannot enter into The Kingdom of God. [6] That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and THAT WHICH IS BORN OF THE SPIRIT IS SPIRIT. [7] Marvel not that I said unto thee, YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN.

1 Corinthians 6:17 BUT HE THAT IS JOINED UNTO THE LORD IS ONE SPIRIT.

Romans 8:9 BUT YE ARE NOT IN THE FLESH, BUT IN THE SPIRIT, IF SO BE THAT THE SPIRIT OF GOD DWELL IN YOU. NOW IF ANY MAN HAVE NOT THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST, HE IS NONE OF HIS. 

1 John 3:6,9 WHOSOEVER ABIDETH IN HIM SINNETH NOT: WHOSOEVER SINNETH HATH NOT SEEN HIM, NEITHER KNOWN HIM. [9] WHOSOEVER IS BORN OF GOD DOTH NOT COMMIT SIN; FOR HIS SEED REMAINETH IN HIM: AND HE CANNOT SIN, BECAUSE HE IS BORN OF  GOD!

ARE YOU BORN AGAIN?  IF YOU ARE BORN AGAIN, THEN STOP SAYING YOU ARE NOT!  WHEN YOU SAY YOU ARE A SINNER OR THE WRETCHED MAN IN THE FLESH, YOU ARE SAYING THAT THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS THE CHRIST IS NOT ENOUGH, TO MAKE YOU ALIVE, TO SAVE YOU, AND TO KEEP YOU WASHED CLEAN!!!

ARE YOU TRULY SAVED?

Ephesians 2:2-6 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. But God, Who Is Rich In Mercy, For His Great Love Wherewith He Loved Us, Even when we were dead in sins, Hath Quickened Us Together With Christ, (By Grace Ye Are Saved;) And Hath Raised Us Up Together And Made Us Sit Together In Heavenly Places In Christ Jesus:

KEEP THE FAITH (2)

Hebrews 11:30-40, 12:1-2 By Faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days. [31] By Faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that Believed not, when she had received the spies with peace. [32] And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets: [33] Who through Faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, [34] Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. [35] Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: [36] And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: [37] They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented; [38] (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth. [39] And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: [40] God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect. Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.

ALL OF THESE PEOPLE LIVED, FOUGHT, AND DIED NOT SEEING THEIR PROMISE ON EARTH, BUT STILL HAVING FAITH ENDURED THE FIGHT AGAINST SIN! 

[2] Looking unto Jesus The Author and Finisher of our Faith; Who for The Joy that was set before Him endured The Cross, despising the shame, and Is Set Down At The Right Hand of The Throne Of God. 

HARD TIMES ARE COMING, BUT KEEP UNSHAKEABLE, STEADFAST FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS!!! KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE MARK OF YOUR HIGH CALLING!!!

KEEP THE FAITH (1)

Hebrews 2:11-13 For both He that Sanctifieth and they who are Sanctified are all of One: for which cause He is not ashamed to call them brethren, [12] Saying, I will declare Thy Name unto my brethren, in the midst of The Church will I sing Praise unto Thee. [13] And again, I will put My trust in Him. And again, Behold I and The Children which God hath given Me.

Hebrews 3:6 But Christ as a Son over His Own House; Whose House are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of The Hope firm unto the end.

CONFIDENT: belief that one can rely on someone, firm trust

KEEP THE FAITH IN JESUS FOR YOUR SALVATION!!! HAVE FIRM TRUST, IN CHRIST JESUS, AND IN HIS SACRIFICE, TO KEEP YOU SAVED!!! HE IS ENOUGH!!! 

Hebrews 10:39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition, but of them that Believe To The Saving Of The Soul.

Hebrews 11:1 Now Faith is the substance of things Hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Hebrews 10:35-36 Cast not away, therefore, your confidence, which hath Great Recompence of Reward. [36] For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done The Will of God, ye might receive The Promise.

Hebrews 11:6 But without Faith, it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must Believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.

Hebrews 11:13-14 These all died in Faith, not having received The Promises, but having seen Them afar off, and were persuaded of Them, and embraced Them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. [14] For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek A Country.

Hebrews 11:16 But now they desire A Better Country, that is, an Heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for He Hath Prepared for them A City.

Romans 6:19-20,22 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to Righteousness unto Holiness. [20] For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from Righteousness. [22] But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto Holiness, and the end Everlasting Life.

Get the flesh in control with The Truth. Jesus Christ is The Truth.

Yield yourself over to The Father, not flesh.

BREASTPLATE:  a piece of plate armor for protecting the front of the torso, a vestment worn on the chest of the Jewish high priest, ornamented with 12 precious stones representing the 12 tribes of Israel.

Galatians 2:20 I am Crucified with Christ: nevertheless I Live; yet not I, But Christ Liveth In Me: and The Life which I Now Live in the flesh I Live By The Faith Of The Son Of God, Who loved me, and Gave Himself For Me.
Galatians 3:26 For ye are all The Children Of God By Faith In Christ Jesus.

Romans 6:18 Being then made Free From Sin, ye Became The servants of Righteousness.
Romans 6:22 But now being made Free from sin, and become servants to God, Ye Have Your Fruit Unto Holiness, and The End Everlasting Life.
Romans 8:1-2 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are In Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after The Spirit. [2] For The LAW of The Spirit Of Life In Christ Jesus Hath Made Me Free from The LAW of sin and death.
1 John 3:4-9 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also The LAW: For Sin Is The Transgression of The LAW. [5] And ye know that He was Manifested to take away our sins; and In Him Is No Sin. [6] Whosoever Abideth In Him Sinneth Not: Whosoever Sinneth Hath Not Seen Him, Neither Known Him. [7] Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth Righteousness Is Righteous, Even As He Is Righteous. [8] He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose, The Son of God Was Manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.

[17b.]The Sword Of he Spirit, Which Is The Word Of God:

THE WORD IS JESUS!!!

1 John 5:7 For There Are Three That Bear Record In Heaven, The Father, The Word, And The Holy Ghost: and These Three Are One.

Ephesians 5:8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but Now Are Ye Light In The Lord: walk as Children of Light:

1 Thessalonians 5:5 Ye are all The Children Of Light, and the Children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.

1 Peter 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a Royal Priesthood, an Holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the Praises Of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His Marvellous Light:

Hebrews 13:20-21 Now the God of Peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, That Great Shepherd of the sheep, through The Blood Of The Everlasting Covenant, [21] Make you perfect in every good work to do His Will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in His Sight, through Jesus Christ; to Whom Be Glory For Ever And Ever. Amen!!!

Galatians 3:19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

1 John 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the LAW: for sin is the transgression of the LAW.

Romans 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the LAW, but under Grace.

YES, HIS BLOOD IS ENOUGH!!!

EVERY TIME YOU SAY YOU ARE A SINNER, YOU ARE DECLARING, THAT HIS BLOOD IS NOT ENOUGH!!!

STOP BELIEVING THE DEVIL! IF HE CAN KEEP YOU BELIEVING THAT GOD IS NOT PLEASED WITH YOU, HE WINS!

THE DEVIL WANTS YOU TO CONCENTRATE ON YOUR FAILURES, INSTEAD OF JESUS' VICTORY!!!
