HAVE FAITH, KEEP ASKING

HAVE FAITH

Luke 18:1-8 And He Spake A Parable Unto Them To This End, That Men Ought Always To Pray, And Not To Faint; Saying, There Was In A City A Judge, Which Feared Not God, Neither Regarded Man: And There Was A Widow In That City; And She Came Unto Him, Saying, Avenge Me Of Mine Adversary. And He Would Not For A While: But Afterward, He Said Within Himself, Though I Fear Not God, Nor Regard Man; Yet Because This Widow Troubleth Me, I Will Avenge Her, Lest By Her Continual Coming She Weary Me. And The Lord Said, Hear What The Unjust Judge Saith. And Shall Not God Avenge His Own Elect, Which Cry Day And Night Unto Him, Though He Bear Long With Them? I Tell You That He Will Avenge Them Speedily. Nevertheless When The Son Of Man Cometh, Shall He Find Faith On The Earth?

Luke 11:5-13 And He Said Unto Them, Which Of You Shall Have A Friend, And Shall Go Unto Him At Midnight, And Say Unto Him, Friend, Lend Me Three Loaves; For A Friend Of Mine In His Journey Is Come To Me, And I Have Nothing To Set Before Him? And He From Within Shall Answer And Say, Trouble Me Not: The Door Is Now Shut, And My Children Are With Me In Bed; I Cannot Rise And Give Thee. I Say Unto You, Though He Will Not Rise And Give Him, Because He Is His Friend, Yet Because Of His Importunity He Will Rise And Give Him As Many As He Needeth. And I Say Unto You, Ask, And It Shall Be Given You; Seek, And Ye Shall Find; Knock, And It Shall Be Opened Unto You. For Every One That Asketh Receiveth; And He That Seeketh Findeth, And To Him That Knocketh It Shall Be Opened. If A Son Shall Ask Bread Of Any Of You That Is A Father, Will He Give Him A Stone? Or If He Ask A Fish, Will He For A Fish Give Him A Serpent? Or If He Shall Ask An Egg, Will He Offer Him A Scorpion? If Ye Then, Being Evil, Know How To Give Good Gifts Unto Your Children: How Much More Shall Your Heavenly Father Give The Holy Spirit To Them That Ask Him?

Importunity: persistence, especially to the point of annoyance.

Here Are Just Two Scriptures, That Show The Lord Saying By Your Persistence, He Will Answer Your Petition!!! Do You Have A Lost Or Sick One That You Are Praying For? Keep Asking, Seeking, Knocking, Persisting!!! Do Not Faint, Have Faith!!! GOD IS OUR FATHER, HE WILL HAPPILY GIVE TO HIS CHILDREN!!!

THE WORLD WITHOUT JESUS

Just Think How Bad This World Would Be Without Jesus. 

If God's Chosen People, That Live In His Promised Land, Have Casinos, Prostitution, And Evil That Is So Prevalent, Just Think How Bad It Would Be Today, Without His Holy Spirit. It Is The Holy Spirit Working To Keep The Evil Of This World At Bay. Christians Are A Major Part Of This Work. If It Were Not For The Christians Today Allowing The Holy Spirit To Do His Work Through Them, Think Just How Much Worse This World Would Be. We Have Christians That Are More About This World's Business Than They Are About The Work They Are Called To Do. The Lord's Work Is The Only Business That Changes Souls. We Live In This World But We Are Not To Be Of This World. Christians, Not Allowing Holy Spirit To Work Through Them, Is How This World Got As Bad As It Is. The Bible Says For Us To Awake To Righteousness. 

AWAKE TO RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND SIN NOT; FOR SOME HAVE NOT THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD: I SPEAK THIS TO YOUR SHAME. 1 CORINTHIANS 15:34

If We Christians Don't Start Living And Walking In The Sprit, Then This World Will Be Just Like It Was Before The Great Flood. Men's Hearts Were Continually On Evil. Is Your Heart On Things Of This World, Or On Him? Remember, GOD, Destroyed The Evil People Of Those Days.

AND GOD SAW THAT THE WICKEDNESS OF MAN WAS GREAT IN THE EARTH AND THAT EVERY IMAGINATION OF THE THOUGHTS OF HIS HEART WAS ONLY EVIL CONTINUALLY. GENESIS 6:5

There Are So Many Souls That Are Heading Straight To The Lake Of Fire, With The So-called Christians' Help. Do You Truly Love Jesus As Your Christ? If You Do Then You Are Telling Everyone About His Saving Grace.

ALTAR

Altar

Hebrews 13:10-16 We Have An Altar, Whereof They Have No Right To Eat Which Serve The Tabernacle. For The Bodies Of Those Beasts, Whose Blood Is Brought Into The Sanctuary By The High Priest For Sin, Are Burned Without The Camp. Wherefore Jesus Also, That He Might Sanctify The People With His Own Blood, Suffered Without The Gate. Let Us Go Forth Therefore Unto Him Without The Camp, Bearing His Reproach. For Here Have We No Continuing City, But We Seek One To Come. By Him Therefore Let Us Offer The Sacrifice Of Praise To God Continually, That Is, The Fruit Of Our Lips Giving Thanks To His Name. But To Do, Good And To Communicate Forget Not: For With Such Sacrifices God Is Well Pleased.

THE ALTAR WAS FOR THE PRIEST TO EAT THE MEAT OF THE ANIMALS THAT WERE OFFERED FOR SIN. NOT TO GO DOWN TO PRAY AT.

THE PRIEST'S ALTAR WAS DONE AWAY WITH WHEN JESUS WAS SACRIFICED FOR SIN WITHOUT THE GATE. THE BODY AND THE BLOOD OF JESUS IS FOR US TO EAT OF. THAT IS WHY WE EAT THE BREAD AND DRINK THE WINE.

Matthew 26:26-28 And As They Were Eating, Jesus Took Bread, And Blessed It, And Brake It, And Gave It To The Disciples, And Said, Take, Eat; This Is My Body. And He Took The Cup, And Gave Thanks, And Gave It To Them, Saying, Drink Ye All Of It; For This Is My Blood Of The New Testament, Which Is Shed For Many For The Remission Of Sins.

Luke 22:19-20 And He Took Bread And Gave Thanks, And Brake It, And Gave Unto Them, Saying, This Is My Body Which Is Given For You: This Do In Remembrance Of Me.  Likewise Also The Cup After Supper, Saying, This Cup Is The New Testament In My Blood, Which Is Shed For You.

LENT, IS AFTER THE TRADITIONS OF MAN

LENT, IS AFTER THE TRADITIONS OF MAN

Mark 7:15-23 There Is Nothing From Without A Man, That Entering Into Him Can Defile Him: But The Things Which Come Out Of Him, Those Are They That Defile The Man. If Any Man Have Ears To Hear, Let Him Hear. And When He Was Entered Into The House From The People, His Disciples Asked Him Concerning The Parable. And He Saith Unto Them, Are Ye So Without Understanding Also? Do Ye Not Perceive, That Whatsoever Thing From Without Entereth Into The Man, It Cannot Defile Him; Because It Entereth Not Into His Heart, But Into The Belly, And Goeth Out Into The Draught, Purging All Meats?  And He Said That Which Cometh Out Of The Man, That Defileth The Man. For From Within, Out Of The Heart Of Men, Proceed Evil Thoughts, Adulteries, Fornications, Murders, Thefts, Covetousness, Wickedness, Deceit, Lasciviousness, An Evil Eye, Blasphemy, Pride, Foolishness: All These Evil Things Come From Within, And Defile The Man.

Colossians 2:6-23 As Ye Have Therefore Received Christ Jesus The Lord, So Walk Ye In Him: Rooted And Built Up In Him, And Stablished In The Faith, As Ye Have Been Taught, Abounding Therein With Thanksgiving. Beware Lest Any Man Spoil You Through Philosophy And Vain Deceit, After The Tradition Of Men, After The Rudiments Of The World, And Not After Christ. For In Him Dwelleth All The Fulness Of The Godhead Bodily. And Ye Are Complete In Him, Which Is The Head Of All Principality And Power: In Whom Also Ye Are Circumcised With The Circumcision Made Without Hands, In Putting Off The Body Of The Sins Of The Flesh By The Circumcision Of Christ: Buried With Him In Baptism, Wherein Also Ye Are Risen With Him Through The Faith Of The Operation Of God, Who Hath Raised Him From The Dead. And You, Being Dead In Your Sins And The Uncircumcision Of Your Flesh, Hath He Quickened Together With Him, Having Forgiven You All Trespasses; 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; And Having Spoiled Principalities And Powers, He Made A Shew Of Them Openly, Triumphing Over Them In It. Let No Man, Therefore, Judge You In Meat, Or In Drink, Or In Respect Of An Holyday, Or Of The New Moon, Or Of The Sabbath Days: Which Are A Shadow Of Things To Come; But The Body Is Of Christ. Let No Man Beguile You Of Your Reward In A Voluntary Humility And Worshipping Of Angels, Intruding Into Those Things Which He Hath Not Seen, Vainly Puffed Up By His Fleshly Mind, And Not Holding The Head, From Which All The Body By Joints And Bands Having Nourishment Ministered, And Knit Together, Increaseth With The Increase Of God. Wherefore If Ye Be Dead With Christ From The Rudiments Of The World, Why, As Though Living In The World, Are Ye Subject To Ordinances,  (Touch Not; Taste Not; Handle Not; Which All Are To Perish With The Using;) After The Commandments And Doctrines Of Men? Which Things Have Indeed A Shew Of Wisdom In Will Worship, And Humility, And Neglecting Of The Body; Not In Any Honour To The Satisfying Of The Flesh.

WHAT SOUNDS GOOD, IS NOT ALWAYS OF THE WORD GOD!

THE BIBLE DOES NOT MENTION "LENT" AT ALL!

BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD

BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD

John 1:29 The Next Day John Seeth Jesus Coming Unto Him, And Saith, Behold The Lamb Of God, Which Taketh Away The Sin Of The World.

John 1:36 And Looking Upon Jesus As He Walked, He Saith, Behold The Lamb Of God!

John Was The Very Last Old Testament Prophet. He Baptized The People For The Remission Of Sin. He Saw Jesus And Told The People That He Was The Lamb Of God That Would Take Away The Sins Of The World. 

Matthew 3:11 I Indeed Baptize You With Water Unto Repentance: But He That Cometh After Me Is Mightier Than I, Whose Shoes I Am Not Worthy To Bear: He Shall Baptize You With The Holy Ghost, And With Fire:

Mark 1:5 And There Went Out Unto Him All The Land Of Judaea, And They Of Jerusalem, And Were All Baptized Of Him In The River Of Jordan, Confessing Their Sins.

Matthew 3:13-15 Then Cometh Jesus From Galilee To Jordan Unto John, To Be Baptized Of Him. But John Forbad Him, Saying, I Have Need To Be Baptized Of Thee, And Comest Thou To Me? And Jesus Answering Said Unto Him, Suffer It To Be So Now: For Thus It Becometh Us To Fulfil All Righteousness. Then He Suffered Him.

We Have To Remember That Jesus Was A Jew. He Was Under The Law Of God, Jewish Laws, And Ordinances. Jesus Had Not Sacrificed Yet, Every Word And Deed He Spoke And Did Was To Fulfill Every Prophecy And Law There Was. He Came To Do Exactly That, So The People Could Be At Peace With God Once Again. Man Was Once At Peace With God In The Garden, That Was In Eden, Before Sin Came Into The World By Adam And Eve. God Sent His Only Begotten Son To Be The Perfect Sacrifice For Every Sin Of The Whole World. That Is Why He Was Manifested.

1 John 3:8 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.

After The Sacrifice Of Jesus, Everything Changed. He Had Fulfilled Everything To Perfection, Every Jot, And Every Tittle. Every Sin Was Placed On Him And He Was Punished For Every One Of Them. The Law Of God Has Been Satisfied Completely. We Are No Longer Under The Law, We Are Under Grace If Our Faith Is In Jesus Christ As Our Savior If We Believe That He Is Our Sacrifice For Our Sins. We No Longer Are Baptized For The Remission Of Sins, We Are Baptized In The Name Of The Father, The Son, And The Holy Spirit, Because Of Our Faith In Jesus As The Christ. Jesus Takes Away Your Sin.

Acts 2:38-39 Then Peter Said Unto Them, Repent, And Be Baptized Every One Of You In The Name Of Jesus Christ For The Remission Of Sins, And Ye Shall Receive The Gift Of The Holy Ghost. For The Promise Is Unto You, And To Your Children, And To All That Are Afar Off, Even As Many As The Lord Our God Shall Call.

Romans 6:14 For Sin Shall Not Have Dominion Over You: For Ye Are Not Under The Law But Under Grace.

Galatians 3:24-27 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.

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:

WISE MASTERBUILDERS

WISE MASTERBUILDERS

Hebrews 11:13-16 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. For They That Say Such Things Declare Plainly That They Seek A Country. And Truly, If They Had Been Mindful Of That Country From Whence They Came Out, They Might Have Had Opportunity To Have Returned. 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.

Colossians 3:1-4 IF YE THEN BE RISEN WITH CHRIST, SEEK THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE ABOVE, WHERE CHRIST SITTETH ON THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD. SET YOUR AFFECTION ON THINGS ABOVE, NOT ON THINGS ON THE EARTH. FOR YE ARE DEAD, AND YOUR LIFE IS HID WITH CHRIST IN GOD.  WHEN CHRIST, WHO IS OUR LIFE, SHALL APPEAR, THEN SHALL YE ALSO APPEAR WITH HIM IN GLORY.

THIS IS WHY WE ARE ON EARTH, 

1 Corinthians 3:9-23 For We Are Labourers Together With God: Ye Are God's Husbandry, Ye Are God's Building. According To The Grace Of God Which Is Given Unto Me, As A Wise Masterbuilder, I Have Laid The Foundation, And Another Buildeth Thereon. But Let Every Man Take Heed How He Buildeth Thereupon. For Other Foundation Can No Man Lay Than That Is Laid, Which Is Jesus Christ. Now If Any Man Build Upon This Foundation Gold, Silver, Precious Stones, Wood, Hay, Stubble; Every Man's Work Shall Be Made Manifest: FOR THE DAY SHALL DECLARE IT, Because It Shall Be Revealed By Fire, And The Fire Shall Try Every Man's Work Of What Sort It Is. If Any Man's Work Abide Which He Hath Built Thereupon, He Shall Receive A Reward. If Any Man's Work Shall Be Burned, He Shall Suffer Loss: But He Himself Shall Be Saved; Yet So As By Fire. Know Ye Not That Ye Are The Temple Of God, And That The Spirit Of God Dwelleth In You? If Any Man Defile The Temple Of God, Him Shall God Destroy; For The Temple Of God Is Holy, Which Temple Ye Are. Let No Man Deceive Himself. If Any Man Among You Seemeth To Be Wise In This World, Let Him Become A Fool, That He May Be Wise. For The Wisdom Of This World Is Foolishness With God. For It Is Written, He Taketh The Wise In Their Own Craftiness. And Again, The Lord Knoweth The Thoughts Of The Wise, That They Are Vain. Therefore Let No Man Glory In Men. For All Things Are Yours; Whether Paul, Or Apollos, Or Cephas, Or The World, Or Life, Or Death, Or Things Present, Or Things To Come; All Are Yours, And Ye Are Christ's, And Christ Is God's.

THIS WORLD IS NOT OUR HOME, STOP PUTTING ALL OF YOUR ENERGIES TOWARDS THINGS THAT ARE GOING TO BE BURNED. START BEING A WISE MASTERBUILDER, BE WORKERS WITH GOD TO REACH OTHERS ABOUT THE GRACE, THE PEACE, THE SALVATION, THAT JESUS BOUGHT AND PAID FOR!!!

Matthew 5:16 LET YOUR LIGHT SO SHINE BEFORE MEN, THAT THEY MAY SEE YOUR GOOD WORKS, AND GLORIFY YOUR FATHER WHICH IS IN HEAVEN.

NEVER ARGUE OVER THE WORD OF GOD

NEVER ARGUE OVER THE WORD OF GOD!

Titus 3:9-11,14-15 But Avoid Foolish Questions, And Genealogies, And Contentions, And Strivings About THE LAW; For They Are Unprofitable And Vain. A Man That Is An Heretick After The First And Second Admonition Reject; Knowing That He That Is Such Is Subverted, And Sinneth, Being Condemned Of Himself. And Let Ours Also Learn To Maintain Good Works For Necessary Uses, That They Be Not Unfruitful. All That Are With Me Salute Thee. Greet Them That Love Us In The Faith. Grace Be With You All. Amen.

Romans 6:14-18,22-23 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. Know Ye Not, That To Whom Ye Yield Yourselves Servants To Obey, His Servants Ye Are To Whom Ye Obey; Whether Of Sin Unto Death, Or Of Obedience Unto Righteousness? 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. [22] BUT NOW BEING MADE FREE FROM SIN, AND BECOME SERVANTS TO GOD, YE HAVE YOUR FRUIT UNTO HOLINESS, AND THE END EVERLASTING LIFE. FOR THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH, BUT THE GIFT OF GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD.

The WORD OF GOD is never to be argued over. Never keep on trying to persuade someone, when they just won't believe. The Bible says it like this.

Matthew 7:6 Give Not That Which Is Holy Unto The Dogs, Neither Cast Ye Your Pearls Before Swine, Lest They Trample Them Under Their Feet, And Turn Again And Rend You.

We are to share The Gospel with everyone but, not to the point of arguments.
