HE CANNOT SIN, BECAUSE HE IS BORN OF GOD.

1 John 3:1-9 

Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. 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. 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.

Below are two Scriptures, both of 1 John 3:9, but both are of two different translations of The Bible.

The King James Bible and The Amplified Bible Classic are the two examples I will use today.

When we read the two translations side by side The King James Bible reads, When You Are Born Of God You Cannot Sin, but the amplified classic version says for us to do works and keep The Law. We know Jesus Christ Fulfilled The Law Of God for us, and Christians Are To Live By Faith. 

Be cautious of which version of the Bible you read. 

Be Spiritually minded, and alert to the preachers or teachers you listen to; they may mean well, but they can still be in error because of the version of the Bible they use. 

Read The Bible For Yourself, and Let The Holy Spirit Teach You And Guide You Into All Truth. 

Galatians 2:16 KJV

Knowing That A Man Is Not Justified By The Works Of The Law, But By The Faith Of Jesus Christ, Even We Have Believed In Jesus Christ, That We Might Be Justified By The Faith Of Christ, And Not By The Works Of The Law: For By The Works Of The Law Shall No Flesh Be Justified.

Galatians 2:21 KJV

I Do Not Frustrate The Grace Of God: For If Righteousness Come By The Law, Then Christ Is Dead In Vain.

1 John 3:9 KJV

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.

1 John 3:9 AMPC

No one born (begotten) of God [deliberately, knowingly, and habitually] practices sin, for God's nature abides in him [His principle of life, the divine sperm, remains permanently within him]; and he cannot practice sinning because he is born (begotten) of God.

OUR ACTIONS ARE WEIGHED THROUGH OUR FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS

OUR ACTIONS ARE WEIGHED THROUGH OUR FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS

1 Samuel 2:3 

Talk No More So Exceeding Proudly; Let Not Arrogancy Come Out Of Your Mouth: For The Lord Is A God Of Knowledge, And BY HIM ACTIONS ARE WEIGHED.

Galatians 3:2-14,17-19,21-27 

This Only Would I Learn Of You, Received Ye The Spirit By The Works Of The Law, Or By The Hearing Of Faith? Are Ye So Foolish? Having Begun In The Spirit, Are Ye Now Made Perfect By The Flesh? Have Ye Suffered So Many Things In Vain? If It Be Yet In Vain. He Therefore That Ministereth To You The Spirit, And Worketh Miracles Among You, Doeth He It By The Works Of The Law, Or By The Hearing Of Faith? Even As Abraham Believed God, And It Was Accounted To Him For Righteousness. Know Ye Therefore That They Which Are Of Faith, The Same Are The Children Of Abraham. And The Scripture, Foreseeing That God Would Justify The Heathen Through Faith, Preached Before The Gospel Unto Abraham, Saying, In Thee Shall All Nations Be Blessed. So Then They Which Be Of Faith Are Blessed With Faithful Abraham. 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. But That No Man Is Justified By The Law In The Sight Of God, It Is Evident: For, The Just Shall Live By Faith. And The Law Is Not Of Faith: But, The Man That Doeth Them Shall Live In Them. 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: That The Blessing Of Abraham Might Come On The Gentiles Through Jesus Christ; That We Might Receive The Promise Of The Spirit Through Faith. 

[17] And This I Say, That The Covenant, That Was Confirmed Before Of God In Christ, The Law, Which Was Four Hundred And Thirty Years After, Cannot Disannul, That It Should Make The Promise Of None Effect. For If The Inheritance Be Of The Law, It Is No More Of Promise: But God Gave It To Abraham By Promise. 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. 

[21] 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.

The Old Testament Is Where We Do Works That Please God, But The New Testament Is Where Christ Jesus Did The Work For Us. 

Jesus Christ Always Pleases God, And Our Faith In Christ Jesus Is How We Please God. 

Salvation Is All About Jesus Christ And Faith, You Cannot Do Enough Good Works To Outweigh The Sins You Commit. Christians Are Forgiven For Every Sin Through Faith In Christ Jesus. After Salvation, We Become A Child Of God; We Are Pure, Washed, Clean, Justified, Sanctified, Holy, Just, And Good, Only Because Of Our Faith In The Perfect Work Of Christ Jesus. 

OUR ACTIONS ARE WEIGHED THROUGH OUR FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS.

HE SAVED THEM FOR HIS NAME'S SAKE, THAT HE MIGHT MAKE HIS MIGHTY POWER TO BE KNOWN

HE SAVED THEM FOR HIS NAME'S SAKE, THAT HE MIGHT MAKE HIS MIGHTY POWER TO BE KNOWN. 

Psalm 106:7-48 

Our Fathers Understood Not Thy Wonders In Egypt; They Remembered Not The Multitude Of Thy Mercies; But Provoked Him At The Sea, Even At The Red Sea. Nevertheless HE SAVED THEM FOR HIS NAME'S SAKE, THAT HE MIGHT MAKE HIS MIGHTY POWER TO BE KNOWN. He Rebuked The Red Sea Also, And It Was Dried Up: So He Led Them Through The Depths, As Through The Wilderness. And He Saved Them From The Hand Of Him That Hated Them, And Redeemed Them From The Hand Of The Enemy. And The Waters Covered Their Enemies: There Was Not One Of Them Left. Then Believed They His Words; They Sang His Praise. They Soon Forgat His Works; They Waited Not For His Counsel: But Lusted Exceedingly In The Wilderness, And Tempted God In The Desert. And He Gave Them Their Request; But Sent Leanness Into Their Soul. They Envied Moses Also In The Camp, And Aaron The Saint Of The Lord. The Earth Opened And Swallowed Up Dathan, And Covered The Company Of Abiram. And A Fire Was Kindled In Their Company; The Flame Burned Up The Wicked. They Made A Calf In Horeb, And Worshipped The Molten Image. Thus They Changed Their Glory Into The Similitude Of An Ox That Eateth Grass. They Forgat God Their Saviour, Which Had Done Great Things In Egypt; Wondrous Works In The Land Of Ham, And Terrible Things By The Red Sea. Therefore He Said That He Would Destroy Them, Had Not Moses His Chosen Stood Before Him In The Breach, To Turn Away His Wrath, Lest He Should Destroy Them. Yea, They Despised The Pleasant Land, They Believed Not His Word: But Murmured In Their Tents, And Hearkened Not Unto The Voice Of The Lord. Therefore He Lifted Up His Hand Against Them, To Overthrow Them In The Wilderness: To Overthrow Their Seed Also Among The Nations, And To Scatter Them In The Lands. They Joined Themselves Also Unto Baal-peor, And Ate The Sacrifices Of The Dead. Thus They Provoked Him To Anger With Their Inventions: And The Plague Brake In Upon Them. Then Stood Up Phinehas, And Executed Judgment: And So The Plague Was Stayed. And That Was Counted Unto Him For Righteousness Unto All Generations For Evermore. They Angered Him Also At The Waters Of Strife, So That It Went Ill With Moses For Their Sakes: Because They Provoked His Spirit, So That He Spake Unadvisedly With His Lips. They Did Not Destroy The Nations, Concerning Whom The Lord Commanded Them: But Were Mingled Among The Heathen, And Learned Their Works. And They Served Their Idols: Which Were A Snare Unto Them. Yea, They Sacrificed Their Sons And Their Daughters Unto Devils, And Shed Innocent Blood, Even The Blood Of Their Sons And Of Their Daughters, Whom They Sacrificed Unto The Idols Of Canaan: And The Land Was Polluted With Blood. Thus Were They Defiled With Their Own Works, And Went A Whoring With Their Own Inventions. Therefore Was The Wrath Of The Lord Kindled Against His People, Insomuch That He Abhorred His Own Inheritance. And He Gave Them Into The Hand Of The Heathen; And They That Hated Them Ruled Over Them. Their Enemies Also Oppressed Them, And They Were Brought Into Subjection Under Their Hand. Many Times Did He Deliver Them; But They Provoked Him With Their Counsel, And Were Brought Low For Their Iniquity. Nevertheless He Regarded Their Affliction, When He Heard Their Cry: And He Remembered For Them His Covenant, And Repented According To The Multitude Of His Mercies. He Made Them Also To Be Pitied Of All Those That Carried Them Captives. Save Us, O Lord Our God, And Gather Us From Among The Heathen, To Give Thanks Unto Thy Holy Name, And To Triumph In Thy Praise. Blessed Be The Lord God Of Israel From Everlasting To Everlasting: And Let All The People Say, Amen. Praise Ye The Lord.

2 Chronicles 7:14-16 

If My People, Which Are Called By My Name, Shall Humble Themselves, And Pray, And Seek My Face, And Turn From Their Wicked Ways; Then Will I Hear From Heaven, And Will Forgive Their Sin, And Will Heal Their Land. Now Mine Eyes Shall Be Open, And Mine Ears Attent Unto The Prayer That Is Made In This Place. For Now Have I Chosen And Sanctified This House, That My Name May Be There For Ever: And Mine Eyes And Mine Heart Shall Be There Perpetually.

Romans 1:22-32 

Professing Themselves To Be Wise, They Became Fools, And Changed The Glory Of The Uncorruptible God Into An Image Made Like To Corruptible Man, And To Birds, And Fourfooted Beasts, And Creeping Things. Wherefore God Also Gave Them Up To Uncleanness Through The Lusts Of Their Own Hearts, To Dishonour Their Own Bodies Between Themselves: Who Changed The Truth Of God Into A Lie, And Worshipped And Served The Creature More Than The Creator, Who Is Blessed For Ever. Amen. For This Cause God Gave Them Up Unto Vile Affections: For Even Their Women Did Change The Natural Use Into That Which Is Against Nature: And Likewise Also The Men, Leaving The Natural Use Of The Woman, Burned In Their Lust One Toward Another; Men With Men Working That Which Is Unseemly, And Receiving In Themselves That Recompence Of Their Error Which Was Meet. And Even As They Did Not Like To Retain God In Their Knowledge, God Gave Them Over To A Reprobate Mind, To Do Those Things Which Are Not Convenient; Being Filled With All Unrighteousness, Fornication, Wickedness, Covetousness, Maliciousness; Full Of Envy, Murder, Debate, Deceit, Malignity; Whisperers, Backbiters, Haters Of God, Despiteful, Proud, Boasters, Inventors Of Evil Things, Disobedient To Parents, Without Understanding, Covenantbreakers, Without Natural Affection, Implacable, Unmerciful: Who Knowing The Judgment Of God, That They Which Commit Such Things Are Worthy Of Death, Not Only Do The Same, But Have Pleasure In Them That Do Them.

Does any of these sound familiar? We may not be Israel, but God Is The Same God that will Save America if we would turn to Him and ask. God Will Save His People, The Jewish and Christians Alike. There are so many Christians in this world all we need to do is ask God for His deliverance from the evils of today. Christians of today are not only condoning the sins of America and the world, but they are taking pleasure in them. It is time for us to stop. It is time for us to fall on our knees, humble our hearts, and Pray. 

It is high time for Christians to awaken out of their Spiritual Slumber, to realize we are in a Spiritual battle and we need The Power Of God And The Power Of His Might to Save us. 

2 Peter 2:8-9 

(For That Righteous Man Dwelling Among Them, In Seeing And Hearing, Vexed His Righteous Soul From Day To Day With Their Unlawful Deeds;) The Lord Knoweth How To Deliver The Godly Out Of Temptations, And To Reserve The Unjust Unto The Day Of Judgment To Be Punished:

ARE YOU A RIGHTEOUS SOUL? 

IS YOUR HEART VEXED WITH ALL OF THE EVIL THINGS GOING ON IN THE WORLD TODAY? 

ASK GOD TO SAVE US! BECAUSE

HE SAVED THEM FOR HIS NAME'S SAKE, THAT HE MIGHT MAKE HIS MIGHTY POWER TO BE KNOWN, HE WILL SAVE US TOO!

THE WORD OF GOD

THE WORD OF GOD

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;

Hebrews 4:12 

For The Word Of God Is Quick, And Powerful, And Sharper Than Any Twoedged Sword, Piercing Even To The Dividing Asunder Of Soul And Spirit, And Of The Joints And Marrow, And Is A Discerner Of The Thoughts And Intents Of The Heart.

2 Timothy 2:1-4 

Thou Therefore, My Son, Be Strong In The Grace That Is In Christ Jesus. And The Things That Thou Hast Heard Of Me Among Many Witnesses, The Same Commit Thou To Faithful Men, Who Shall Be Able To Teach Others Also. Thou Therefore Endure Hardness, As A Good Soldier Of Jesus Christ.  No Man That Warreth Entangleth Himself With The Affairs Of This Life; That He May Please Him Who Hath Chosen Him To Be A Soldier.

2 Timothy 2:24-26 

And The Servant Of The Lord Must Not Strive; But Be Gentle Unto All Men, Apt To Teach, Patient, In Meekness Instructing Those That Oppose Themselves; If God Peradventure Will Give Them Repentance To The Acknowledging Of The Truth;  And That They May Recover Themselves Out Of The Snare Of The Devil, Who Are Taken Captive By Him At His Will.

The Word Of God Is So Important To A Christian. The Word Of God Is How We Grow From Babes In Christ Jesus To Mature Adults. The Word Of God Tells Us To Endure Hardness As Good Soldiers But To Be Gentle Unto All Men. The Word Of God Strengthens Our Faith. The Word Of God Keeps Us Disciplined. The Word Of God Is What The Holy Spirit Used To Grow Us And To Conform Us Into The Image Of Christ Jesus. The Word Of God Is How We Stop Our Enemy. 

Jesus Christ Rebuked Satan By Using The Word Of God When Being Tempted, So Do Not Ever Think Satan Can Not Use The Word Of God Against You Because He Can. 

Twisting The Word Of God Is How Satan Deceived Adam And Eve; He Tried Testing Jesus Christ With The Word Of God.

Knowing The Word Of God, Is How We Are Strong In The Power Of The Might Of God. 

Knowing The Word Of God, We Know To Put On The Whole Armor Of God. 

It Is Because Of The Word Of God We Know, To Above All, Take The Shield Of Faith, Wherewith We Shall Be Able To Quench All The Fiery Darts Of The Wicked And To Take The Helmet Of Salvation.

The Word Of God Is Truth, And Through Using The Word Of God  We Can Help Others Recover Themselves Out Of The Snare Of The Devil.

THE WORD OF GOD REINFORCES OUR FAITH AND EQUIPS US FOR EVERY BATTLE AND VICTORY.

HUMBLE, MEEK, AND LOWLY IN HEART

HUMBLE, MEEK, AND LOWLY IN HEART

Matthew 11:27-30 

All Things Are Delivered Unto Me Of My Father: And No Man Knoweth The Son, But The Father; Neither Knoweth Any Man The Father, Save The Son, And He To Whomsoever The Son Will Reveal Him. COME UNTO ME, ALL YE THAT LABOUR AND ARE HEAVY LADEN, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST. TAKE MY YOKE UPON YOU, AND LEARN OF ME; FOR I AM MEEK AND LOWLY IN HEART: AND YE SHALL FIND REST UNTO YOUR SOULS. FOR MY YOKE IS EASY, AND MY BURDEN IS LIGHT.

I heard a so-called preacher say, we are to be monsters but have the monster under control. 

I do not know what he meant, but he said that MEEK was a poor translation used in The Bible because it does not fit and he doesn't understand it. So here are The Holy Scriptures, you see for yourself if the "monster under control" words fit in them. Blessed Are The POOR In Spirit, Blessed Are They That MOURN, Blessed Are They Which Do HUNGER AND THIRST AFTER RIGHTEOUSNESS, Blessed Are The MERCIFUL, Blessed Are The PURE IN HEART, Blessed Are The PEACEMAKERS, Blessed Are They Which Are PERSECUTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS' SAKE, Blessed Are Ye, When Men Shall REVILE YOU, AND PERSECUTE YOU, And Shall Say All Manner Of Evil Against You Falsely, FOR MY SAKE,

Now you decide which words fit best with all of these, Blessed Are The MEEK, or Be A Monster Under Control. 

Jesus Said for us to come unto Him and learn of Him. Jesus Christ said that He Is MEEK AND LOWLY IN HEART. 

Here are the complete words that Jesus Christ said, 

"COME UNTO ME, ALL YE THAT LABOUR AND ARE HEAVY LADEN, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST. TAKE MY YOKE UPON YOU, AND LEARN OF ME; FOR I AM MEEK AND LOWLY IN HEART" 

Matthew 5:3-13 

Blessed Are The POOR In Spirit: For Theirs Is The Kingdom Of Heaven. Blessed Are They That MOURN: For They Shall Be Comforted. Blessed Are The MEEK: For They Shall Inherit The Earth. Blessed Are They Which Do HUNGER AND THIRST AFTER RIGHTEOUSNESS: For They Shall Be Filled. Blessed Are The MERCIFUL: For They Shall Obtain Mercy. Blessed Are The PURE IN HEART: For They Shall See God. Blessed Are The PEACEMAKERS: For They Shall Be Called The Children Of God. Blessed Are They Which Are PERSECUTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS' SAKE: For Theirs Is The Kingdom Of Heaven. Blessed Are Ye, When Men Shall REVILE YOU, AND PERSECUTE YOU, And Shall Say All Manner Of Evil Against You Falsely, FOR MY SAKE. Rejoice, And Be Exceeding Glad: For Great Is Your Reward In Heaven: For So Persecuted They The Prophets Which Were Before You. YE ARE THE SALT OF THE EARTH: But If The Salt Have Lost His Savour, Wherewith Shall It Be Salted? It Is Thenceforth Good For Nothing, But To Be Cast Out, And To Be Trodden Under Foot Of Men.

2 Chronicles 7:14 

IF MY PEOPLE, WHICH ARE CALLED BY MY NAME, SHALL HUMBLE THEMSELVES, AND PRAY, AND SEEK MY FACE, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS; THEN WILL I HEAR FROM HEAVEN, AND WILL FORGIVE THEIR SIN, AND WILL HEAL THEIR LAND.

READ YOUR BIBLE, DO NOT BE DECEIVED! 

Just because someone says that they are Preachers and Teachers of The Bible does not make it true. The Bible warns us about listening to the so-called wise. 

Romans 1:22 

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools. 

If a thief comes into my home and steals from me, well that is his bad. If I listen to a person deceiving me, well that is my bad because I have a Bible, I Have The Holy Spirit, and I can read. 

BE CAREFUL WHO YOU LISTEN TO! BE CAREFUL OF THE BOOKS AND COMMENTARIES YOU READ! 

READ YOUR BIBLE, DO NOT BE DECEIVED!

WALK AS CHILDREN OF LIGHT

WALK AS CHILDREN OF LIGHT

We were as 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 says, 

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. 

These Are Sins And Those That Do Them Are Proving That They Are Unrighteous And Will Not Inherit The Kingdom Of God. As Christians. We Stop Doing the work of satan And Start Doing The Work Of The Lord By The Power Of The Holy Spirit. 

As You Can See By Reading The Holy Scriptures Below You Will Find That You Were Sometimes Darkness, But Now Are Ye Light In The Lord: 

WALK AS CHILDREN OF LIGHT, YOU ARE NOW CHILDREN OF GOD,  YOU ARE WASHED, SANCTIFIED, AND JUSTIFIED, IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS, AND BY THE SPIRIT OF OUR GOD. WALK AS CHILDREN OF LIGHT, AS ONE WHO HAS BEEN SET FREE OF THE OLD FLESHLY SINS, AND WALK IN THE NEWNESS OF LIFE. 

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.

Ephesians 5:1-8 

BE YE THEREFORE FOLLOWERS OF GOD, AS DEAR CHILDREN; AND WALK IN LOVE, AS CHRIST ALSO HATH LOVED US, AND HATH GIVEN HIMSELF FOR US AN OFFERING AND A SACRIFICE TO GOD FOR A SWEETSMELLING SAVOUR. But Fornication, And All Uncleanness, Or Covetousness, Let It Not Be Once Named Among You, As Becometh Saints; Neither Filthiness, Nor Foolish Talking, Nor Jesting, Which Are Not Convenient: But Rather Giving Of Thanks. For This Ye Know, That No Whoremonger, Nor Unclean Person, Nor Covetous Man, Who Is An Idolater, Hath Any Inheritance In The Kingdom Of Christ And Of God. Let No Man Deceive You With Vain Words: For Because Of These Things Cometh The Wrath Of God Upon The Children Of Disobedience. Be Not Ye Therefore Partakers With Them. FOR YE WERE SOMETIMES DARKNESS, BUT NOW ARE YE LIGHT IN THE LORD: WALK AS CHILDREN OF LIGHT:

2 Peter 1:9 

But He That Lacketh These Things Is Blind, And Cannot See Afar Off, And Hath Forgotten That He WAS PURGED From His Old Sins.

1 John 3:1-2 

Behold, What Manner Of Love The Father Hath Bestowed Upon Us, That We Should Be Called The Sons Of God: Therefore The World Knoweth Us Not, Because It Knew Him Not. Beloved, NOW ARE WE THE SONS OF GOD, And It Doth Not Yet Appear What We Shall Be: But We Know That, When He Shall Appear, We Shall Be Like Him; For We Shall See Him As He Is.

A MARK IN THEIR RIGHT HAND, OR IN THEIR FOREHEADS

A MARK IN THEIR RIGHT HAND, OR IN THEIR FOREHEADS

Revelation 13:2-8,12-18 

And The Beast Which I Saw Was Like Unto A Leopard, And His Feet Were As The Feet Of A Bear, And His Mouth As The Mouth Of A Lion: And The Dragon Gave Him His Power, And His Seat, And Great Authority. And I Saw One Of His Heads As It Were Wounded To Death; And His Deadly Wound Was Healed: And All The World Wondered After The Beast. And They Worshipped The Dragon Which Gave Power Unto The Beast: And They Worshipped The Beast, Saying, Who Is Like Unto The Beast? Who Is Able To Make War With Him? And There Was Given Unto Him A Mouth Speaking Great Things And Blasphemies; And Power Was Given Unto Him To Continue Forty And Two Months. And He Opened His Mouth In Blasphemy Against God, To Blaspheme His Name, And His Tabernacle, And Them That Dwell In Heaven. And It Was Given Unto Him To Make War With The Saints, And To Overcome Them: And Power Was Given Him Over All Kindreds, And Tongues, And Nations. And All That Dwell Upon The Earth Shall Worship Him, Whose Names Are Not Written In The Book Of Life Of The Lamb Slain From The Foundation Of The World. 

[12] And He Exerciseth All The Power Of The First Beast Before Him, And Causeth The Earth And Them Which Dwell Therein To Worship The First Beast, Whose Deadly Wound Was Healed. And He Doeth Great Wonders, So That He Maketh Fire Come Down From Heaven On The Earth In The Sight Of Men, And Deceiveth Them That Dwell On The Earth By The Means Of Those Miracles Which He Had Power To Do In The Sight Of The Beast; Saying To Them That Dwell On The Earth, That They Should Make An Image To The Beast, Which Had The Wound By A Sword, And Did Live. And He Had Power To Give Life Unto The Image Of The Beast, That The Image Of The Beast Should Both Speak, And Cause That As Many As Would Not Worship The Image Of The Beast Should Be Killed. And He Causeth All, Both Small And Great, Rich And Poor, Free And Bond, To Receive A MARK IN THEIR RIGHT HAND, OR IN THEIR FOREHEADS: And That No Man Might Buy Or Sell, Save He That Had The Mark, Or The Name Of The Beast, Or The Number Of His Name. Here Is Wisdom. Let Him That Hath Understanding Count The Number Of The Beast: For It Is The Number Of A Man; And His Number Is Six Hundred Threescore And Six.

Revelation 14:9-11 

And The Third Angel Followed Them, Saying With A Loud Voice, If Any Man Worship The Beast And His Image, And Receive His Mark In His Forehead, Or In His Hand, The Same Shall Drink Of The Wine Of The Wrath Of God, Which Is Poured Out Without Mixture Into The Cup Of His Indignation; And He Shall Be Tormented With Fire And Brimstone In The Presence Of The Holy Angels, And In The Presence Of The Lamb: And THE SMOKE OF THEIR TORMENT ASCENDETH UP FOR EVER AND EVER: AND THEY HAVE NO REST DAY NOR NIGHT, WHO WORSHIP THE BEAST AND HIS IMAGE, AND WHOSOEVER RECEIVETH THE MARK OF HIS NAME.

Revelation 16:1-2 

And I Heard A Great Voice Out Of The Temple Saying To The Seven Angels, Go Your Ways, And Pour Out The Vials Of The Wrath Of God Upon The Earth. And The First Went, And Poured Out His Vial Upon The Earth; And There Fell A Noisome And Grievous Sore Upon The Men Which Had The Mark Of The Beast, And Upon Them Which Worshipped His Image.

There is coming a time when all of this is going to happen, and I am thinking it will be soon. 

What this is saying is we need to have our eyes, hearts, and minds fixed on The Lord Jesus Christ. 

Faith in Christ Jesus is the only way to not receive the Mark In our Right Hand, Or In our Foreheads. No Man will be able to Buy Or Sell, except he has this mark, Or The Name Of The Beast, Or The Number Of His Name. I do not know what these all are, but I do know it will come to all of the people on the earth. Everyone will have to have one of these on the Right Hand, Or In the Forehead to buy or sell anything. Groceries, gas, cars, rent, electricity, phones, clothes, everything can only be paid for because of this Mark, Or The Name Of The Beast, Or The Number Of His Name, 

There will be no one going to buy or sell without one of these three. I know it will be tempting to take one of these three required payment options but, DO NOT EITHER OF TAKE THEM! 

I have heard some people say that the Mark is a computer chip inserted in the right hand or forehead, I do not know for sure, but Do Not Take Anything In Your Right Hand Or Forehead. 

Either Of These Three Are From Satan, And GOD WILL JUDGE THOSE WHO TAKE EITHER OF THESE, And 

THE SMOKE OF THEIR TORMENT ASCENDETH UP FOR EVER AND EVER: AND THEY HAVE NO REST DAY NOR NIGHT, WHO WORSHIP THE BEAST AND HIS IMAGE, AND WHOSOEVER RECEIVETH THE MARK OF HIS NAME.

HOLY, RIGHTEOUS, JUST, AND GOOD

HOLY, RIGHTEOUS, JUST, AND GOOD

Romans 7:12 

WHEREFORE THE LAW IS HOLY, AND THE COMMANDMENT HOLY, AND JUST, AND GOOD.

Romans 9:30-32 

What Shall We Say Then? That The Gentiles, Which Followed Not After Righteousness, HAVE ATTAINED TO RIGHTEOUSNESS, EVEN THE RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF FAITH. But Israel, Which Followed After The Law Of Righteousness, Hath Not Attained To The Law Of Righteousness. Wherefore? Because They Sought It Not By Faith, But As It Were By The Works Of The Law. For They Stumbled At That Stumblingstone;

Romans 3:21-25 

BUT NOW THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD WITHOUT THE LAW IS MANIFESTED, BEING WITNESSED BY THE LAW AND THE PROPHETS;  EVEN THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD WHICH IS BY FAITH OF JESUS CHRIST UNTO ALL AND UPON ALL THEM THAT BELIEVE: For There Is No Difference: For All Have Sinned, And Come Short Of The Glory Of God; BEING JUSTIFIED FREELY BY HIS GRACE THROUGH THE REDEMPTION THAT IS IN CHRIST JESUS: Whom God Hath Set Forth To Be A Propitiation Through Faith In His Blood, To Declare His Righteousness For The Remission Of Sins That Are Past, Through The Forbearance Of God;

Romans 10:1-5 

Brethren, My Heart's Desire And Prayer To God For Israel Is, That They Might Be Saved. For I Bear Them Record That They Have A Zeal Of God, But Not According To Knowledge. FOR THEY BEING IGNORANT OF GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND GOING ABOUT TO ESTABLISH THEIR OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS, HAVE NOT SUBMITTED THEMSELVES UNTO THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD. FOR CHRIST IS THE END OF THE LAW FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS TO EVERY ONE THAT BELIEVETH. For Moses Describeth The Righteousness Which Is Of The Law, That The Man Which Doeth Those Things Shall Live By Them.

Galatians 2:16-21 

KNOWING THAT A MAN IS NOT JUSTIFIED BY THE WORKS OF THE LAW, BUT BY THE FAITH OF JESUS CHRIST, EVEN WE HAVE BELIEVED IN JESUS CHRIST, THAT WE MIGHT BE JUSTIFIED BY THE FAITH OF CHRIST, And Not By The Works Of The Law: For By The Works Of The Law Shall No Flesh Be Justified. But If, While We Seek To Be Justified By Christ, We Ourselves Also Are Found Sinners, Is Therefore Christ The Minister Of Sin? God Forbid. For If I Build Again The Things Which I Destroyed, I Make Myself A Transgressor. For I Through The Law Am Dead To The Law, That I Might Live Unto God. 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. I DO NOT FRUSTRATE THE GRACE OF GOD: For If Righteousness Come By The Law, Then Christ Is Dead In Vain.

Philippians 3:9-10 

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;

I DO NOT WANT TO FRUSTRATE THE GRACE OF GOD; I WANT TO 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.

THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH AND THE SPIRIT OF ERROR

THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH AND THE SPIRIT OF ERROR

I Pray That You Have A Blessed Day In The Lord Today And Every Day! 

 I also hope that you have started your day with The Lord and in His Word, so you will be Spiritually equipped to fight The Good Fight Of Faith and to quench every fiery dart of the devil.

Today, I will be writing about the signs of the times.  What I mean is that I will be sharing what The Lord has shown me about the world today.  

The things going on in the world today are very interesting. 

 The Holy Spirit Impressed Upon Me To Share My Bible Study Today On Artificial Intelligence Because I Believe You Need To Be Aware Of the Danger of it.

We All Need To Be Aware Of The Things Happening In The World So That We Won't Deceived. We Are Not Fear The World or Its fiery darts, But We Are To Be Alert. 

I have said many times that after Salvation, we realize that everything is Spiritual and not just fleshly. 

The Bible States That Our Warfare Is Not Flesh And Bones, But Is Against Spiritual Wickedness In High Places. 

I am not saying satan does not use his people to attack you physically to cause you pain when he does. Christians can look around to see the hate the world has for Christianity. But for right now, let us look at the bigger picture, let us look beyond the hatred of the flesh of the world, and let us look at the Spiritual Life. The evil spirit of the devil is what causes all hatred in the first place.

Buy Not listening to the world's news is the equivalent of burying one's head in the sand. 

I stopped listening to the news channels and reading the newspapers a few years ago because I did not desire to know how evil this world is. 

If you have heard or read the news recently, then you have heard about the internet sensation called Artificial Intelligence. AI is the latest in internet technology; AI was created by the most intelligent and wealthy people today.

 Elon Musk is just one of the creators of AI. 

Google Elon Musk and find out more about AI if you are interested, but for now, I want to write about the dangers of AI. 

AI lets us know by its name it is not intelligence but artificial and is not to be trusted. 

 

Artificial Is Defined As made or produced by human beings rather than occurring naturally, as a copy of something natural, an imitation, simulated, or a sham.

AI is an internet program that was created by men for one reason, to deceive the world.

AI is designed to make fake miracles seem like real miracles of God.

AI will have us believe in the impossible. 

AI was designed for one purpose, to deceive and trick the eyes of all people into believing a lie is the truth.

AI will have us believing in flying elephants if we do not know the power behind it. 

The story about AI sounds farfetched and so extreme, but AI is real and dangerous.

AI could be part of the warning found in

2 Thessalonians 2:9

Even Him, Whose Coming Is After The Working Of Satan With All Power And Signs And Lying Wonders.

The Lying Wonders will be so amazing we will see them and will be in awe because will be deceived by them.

AI will do such amazing wonders many people will be deceived because they will believe only God can do such miracles.

As I said, AI is in the news quite often but has been going on in the background for years. 

We are not to fear AI but to be aware because it is artificial intelligence. 

 Do Not Be Deceived By The Fake News Come From Ai;  Believe The Truth, And Believe The Bible. Because When The Lord Returns, Everyone Will Know It! Every Knee Will Bow, And Every Tongue Will Confess, That Jesus Christ Is The Lord! 

Matthew 24:21-27,37-39 

For Then Shall Be Great Tribulation, Such As Was Not Since The Beginning Of The World To This Time, No, Nor Ever Shall Be. And Except Those Days Should Be Shortened, There Should No Flesh Be Saved: But For The Elect's Sake Those Days Shall Be Shortened. Then If Any Man Shall Say Unto You, Lo, Here Is Christ, Or There; Believe It Not. For There Shall Arise False Christs, And False Prophets, And Shall Shew Great Signs And Wonders; Insomuch That, If It Were Possible, They Shall Deceive The Very Elect. Behold, I Have Told You Before. Wherefore If They Shall Say Unto You, Behold, He Is In The Desert; Go Not Forth: Behold, He Is In The Secret Chambers; Believe It Not. For As The Lightning Cometh Out Of The East, And Shineth Even Unto The West; So Shall Also The Coming Of The Son Of Man Be. 

[37] But As The Days Of Noe Were, So Shall Also The Coming Of The Son Of Man Be. For As In The Days That Were Before The Flood They Were Eating And Drinking, Marrying And Giving In Marriage, Until The Day That Noe Entered Into The Ark, And Knew Not Until The Flood Came, And Took Them All Away; So Shall Also The Coming Of The Son Of Man Be.

2 Thessalonians 2:3-4

Let No Man Deceive You By Any Means: For That Day Shall Not Come, Except There Come A Falling Away First, And That Man Of Sin Be Revealed, The Son Of Perdition; Who Opposeth And Exalteth Himself Above All That Is Called God, Or That Is Worshipped; So That He As God Sitteth In The Temple Of God, Shewing Himself That He Is God.

1 Corinthians 16:13

WATCH YE, STAND FAST IN THE FAITH, QUIT YOU LIKE MEN, BE STRONG.

1 John 4:4-6 

Ye Are Of God, Little Children, And Have Overcome Them: Because Greater Is He That Is In You Than He That Is In The World. They Are Of The World: Therefore Speak They Of The World And The World Heareth Them. WE ARE OF GOD: HE THAT KNOWETH GOD HEARETH US; He That Is Not Of God Heareth Not Us. Hereby Know We THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH, AND THE SPIRIT OF ERROR.

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. 

2 Thessalonians 2:8-17 

And Then Shall That Wicked Be Revealed, Whom The Lord Shall Consume With The Spirit Of His Mouth, And Shall Destroy With The Brightness Of His Coming: Even Him, Whose Coming Is After The Working Of Satan With All Power And Signs And Lying Wonders, And With All Deceivableness Of Unrighteousness In Them That Perish; Because They Received Not The Love Of The Truth, That They Might Be Saved. And For This Cause God Shall Send Them Strong Delusion, That They Should Believe A Lie: That They All Might Be Damned Who Believed Not The Truth, But Had Pleasure In Unrighteousness. But We Are Bound To Give Thanks Alway To God For You, Brethren Beloved Of The Lord, Because God Hath From The Beginning Chosen You To Salvation Through Sanctification Of The Spirit And Belief Of The Truth: Whereunto He Called You By Our Gospel, To The Obtaining Of The Glory Of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, Brethren, Stand Fast, And Hold The Traditions Which Ye Have Been Taught, Whether By Word, Or Our Epistle. Now Our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, And God, Even Our Father, Which Hath Loved Us, And Hath Given Us Everlasting Consolation And Good Hope Through Grace, Comfort Your Hearts, And Stablish You In Every Good Word And Work.

LOVE IN PURITY AND SINCERITY, NOT IN UNFEIGNED OR DISSIMULATION

LOVE IN PURITY AND SINCERITY,  

NOT IN UNFEIGNED OR DISSIMULATION

Romans 12:9-10 

Let LOVE BE WITHOUT DISSIMULATION. Abhor That Which Is Evil; Cleave To That Which Is Good. Be Kindly Affectioned One To Another With Brotherly Love; In Honour Preferring One Another;

2 Corinthians 6:6 

By Pureness, By Knowledge, By Longsuffering, By Kindness, By The Holy Ghost, BY LOVE UNFEIGNED,

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:  Being Born Again, Not Of Corruptible Seed, But Of Incorruptible, By The Word Of God, Which Liveth And Abideth For Ever.

1 Timothy 1:5-7 

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.

UNFEIGNED: genuine; sincere

DISSIMULATION: To conceal (one's intentions, for example) under a feigned appearance, or pretense.

MY TONGUE ALSO SHALL TALK OF THY RIGHTEOUSNESS ALL THE DAY LONG

MY TONGUE ALSO SHALL TALK OF THY RIGHTEOUSNESS ALL THE DAY LONG

Psalm 71:1-8,13-19,23-24 

IN THEE, O LORD, DO I PUT MY TRUST: Let Me Never Be Put To Confusion. Deliver Me In Thy Righteousness, And Cause Me To Escape: Incline Thine Ear Unto Me, And Save Me. Be Thou My Strong Habitation, Whereunto I May Continually Resort: Thou Hast Given Commandment To Save Me; For THOU ART MY ROCK AND MY FORTRESS. Deliver Me, O My God, Out Of The Hand Of The Wicked, Out Of The Hand Of The Unrighteous And Cruel Man. FOR THOU ART MY HOPE, O LORD GOD: THOU ART MY TRUST FROM MY YOUTH. BY THEE HAVE I BEEN HOLDEN UP FROM THE WOMB: THOU ART HE THAT TOOK ME OUT OF MY MOTHER'S BOWELS: MY PRAISE SHALL BE CONTINUALLY OF THEE. I Am As A Wonder Unto Many; But THOU ART MY STRONG REFUGE. LET MY MOUTH BE FILLED WITH THY PRAISE AND WITH THY HONOUR ALL THE DAY. 

[13] Let Them Be Confounded And Consumed That Are Adversaries To My Soul; Let Them Be Covered With Reproach And Dishonour That Seek My Hurt. But I WILL HOPE CONTINUALLY, AND WILL YET PRAISE THEE MORE AND MORE. MY MOUTH SHALL SHEW FORTH THY RIGHTEOUSNESS AND THY SALVATION ALL THE DAY; FOR I KNOW NOT THE NUMBERS THEREOF. I WILL GO IN THE STRENGTH OF THE LORD GOD: I WILL MAKE MENTION OF THY RIGHTEOUSNESS, EVEN OF THINE ONLY. O GOD, THOU HAST TAUGHT ME FROM MY YOUTH: AND HITHERTO HAVE I DECLARED THY WONDROUS WORKS. Now Also When I Am Old And Grayheaded, O God, Forsake Me Not; Until I Have Shewed Thy Strength Unto This Generation, And Thy Power To Every One That Is To Come. Thy Righteousness Also, O God, Is Very High, Who Hast Done Great Things: O God, Who Is Like Unto Thee! 

[23] MY LIPS SHALL GREATLY REJOICE WHEN I SING UNTO THEE; AND MY SOUL, WHICH THOU HAST REDEEMED. MY TONGUE ALSO SHALL TALK OF THY RIGHTEOUSNESS ALL THE DAY LONG: For They Are Confounded, For They Are Brought Unto Shame, That Seek My Hurt.

O God, Forsake Me Not; Until I Have Shewed Thy Strength Unto This Generation, And Thy Power To Every One That Is To Come.

MY LIPS SHALL GREATLY REJOICE WHEN I SING UNTO THEE; AND MY SOUL, WHICH THOU HAST REDEEMED. MY TONGUE ALSO SHALL TALK OF THY RIGHTEOUSNESS ALL THE DAY LONG:

LET HIM GLORY IN THE LORD

LET HIM GLORY IN THE LORD

1 Corinthians 1:23-31 

But We Preach Christ Crucified, Unto The Jews A Stumblingblock, And Unto The Greeks Foolishness; But Unto Them Which Are Called, Both Jews And Greeks, Christ The Power Of God, And The Wisdom Of God. Because The Foolishness Of God Is Wiser Than Men; And The Weakness Of God Is Stronger Than Men. For Ye See Your Calling, Brethren, How That Not Many Wise Men After The Flesh, Not Many Mighty, Not Many Noble, Are Called: But God Hath Chosen The Foolish Things Of The World To Confound The Wise; And God Hath Chosen The Weak Things Of The World To Confound The Things Which Are Mighty; And Base Things Of The World, And Things Which Are Despised, Hath God Chosen, Yea, And Things Which Are Not, To Bring To Nought Things That Are: That No Flesh Should Glory In His Presence. But Of Him Are Ye In Christ Jesus, Who Of God Is Made Unto Us Wisdom, And Righteousness, And Sanctification, And Redemption: That, According As It Is Written, He That Glorieth, LET HIM GLORY IN THE LORD.

Romans 6:14 

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

Galatians 2:16,20-21 

Knowing That A Man Is Not Justified By The Works Of The Law, But By The Faith Of Jesus Christ, Even We Have Believed In Jesus Christ, That We Might Be Justified By The Faith Of Christ, And Not By The Works Of The Law: For By The Works Of The Law Shall No Flesh Be Justified. 

[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.

I DO NOT FRUSTRATE THE GRACE OF GOD: For If Righteousness Come By The Law, Then Christ Is Dead In Vain.

I Am Crucified With Christ, It Is Now Christ Living In Me, Now The Life I Live Is By The Faith Of The Son Of God, Who Loved Me And Gave Himself For Me.

LET US GLORY IN THE LORD, LET US NOT FRUSTRATE THE GRACE OF GOD.

BE FILLED WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST

BE FILLED WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST.

2 Peter 1:1-13 

Simon Peter, A Servant And An Apostle Of Jesus Christ, To Them That Have Obtained Like Precious Faith With Us Through The Righteousness Of God And Our Saviour Jesus Christ: Grace And Peace Be Multiplied Unto You Through The Knowledge Of God, And Of Jesus Our Lord, According As His Divine Power Hath Given Unto Us All Things That Pertain Unto Life And Godliness, Through The Knowledge Of Him That Hath Called Us To Glory And Virtue: Whereby Are Given Unto Us Exceeding Great And Precious Promises: That By These Ye Might Be Partakers Of The Divine Nature, Having Escaped The Corruption That Is In The World Through Lust. And Beside This, Giving All Diligence, Add To Your Faith Virtue; And To Virtue Knowledge; And To Knowledge Temperance; And To Temperance Patience; And To Patience Godliness; And To Godliness Brotherly Kindness; And To Brotherly Kindness Charity. For If These Things Be In You, And Abound, They Make You That Ye Shall Neither Be Barren Nor Unfruitful In The Knowledge Of Our Lord Jesus Christ. But He That Lacketh These Things Is Blind, And Cannot See Afar Off, And Hath Forgotten That He Was Purged From His Old Sins. Wherefore The Rather, Brethren, Give Diligence To Make Your Calling And Election Sure: For If Ye Do These Things, Ye Shall Never Fall: For So An Entrance Shall Be Ministered Unto You Abundantly Into The Everlasting Kingdom Of Our Lord And Saviour Jesus Christ. Wherefore I Will Not Be Negligent To Put You Always In Remembrance Of These Things, Though Ye Know Them, And Be Established In The Present Truth. Yea, I Think It Meet, As Long As I Am In This Tabernacle, To Stir You Up By Putting You In Remembrance;

Colossians 1:9-12 

For This Cause We Also, Since The Day We Heard It, Do Not Cease To Pray For You, And To Desire That Ye Might BE FILLED WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIS WILL IN ALL WISDOM AND SPIRITUAL UNDERSTANDING; THAT YE MIGHT WALK WORTHY OF THE LORD UNTO ALL PLEASING, BEING FRUITFUL IN EVERY GOOD WORK, AND INCREASING IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD; STRENGTHENED WITH ALL MIGHT, ACCORDING TO HIS GLORIOUS POWER, UNTO ALL PATIENCE AND LONGSUFFERING WITH JOYFULNESS; GIVING THANKS UNTO THE FATHER, WHICH HATH MADE US MEET TO BE PARTAKERS OF THE INHERITANCE OF THE SAINTS IN LIGHT:

2 Peter 3:18 

But Grow In Grace, And IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST. To Him Be Glory Both Now And For Ever. Amen.

BE FILLED WITH KNOWLEDGE, NOT THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORLD, BUT BE FILLED WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST.

CHRISTIANITY IS ALL ABOUT JESUS CHRIST

CHRISTIANITY IS ALL ABOUT JESUS CHRIST!

So many Christians will listen to so-called preachers and teachers and will read their books read their commentaries and posts, but will never read The Holy Bible for themselves. I know it is easier to listen to others tell what they believe The Bible is saying, but what if they are incorrect or flat-out lying? 

Reading our Bible is the most important thing we can do as Christians. 

Reading The Holy Scriptures is vital to a Christian. Reading The Bible is the only way we can grow Spiritually. 

Reading your Bible is the only way to grow in Knowledge Of Jesus Christ and His Perfect Sacrifice. 

I am sad to say that sometimes reading the wrong version of Bible can even be deceptive. 

Today I read the Scripture of Romans 3:38 shared on a page on Facebook. When I read the Scripture, I thought, this Scripture can mean so many different things by the way it reads.

First of all, The Word God, to Christians, we know The One And Only True God, Is Jehovah. But, if a Muslim or Hindu were to read the Scripture, they would think of their false god. 

People who claim to be Christians, or even to babes in Christ Jesus, can teach or be taught in error. 

Some can read the Scripture in the NLT and believe they don't have to change after Salvation. 

Some will think that they can still live as they did before Salvation because the Scripture of the NLT tells them nothing can separate them from The Love Of God, The New Living Translation implies this in this one verse.

It is important to read The Holy Scriptures as a whole and not verse by verse.

Below are two Scriptures that I want to use as an example to prove this point. 

When you read the verse of Romans 8:38 in the new living translation, it will lead you to believe differently than when you read the same Scripture in The King James Version of The Bible. 

When we Read Romans 8:38 in The King James Version Of The Bible, we see we also need Romans 8:39 to complete the thought of the writer and understand the true meaning of the Scripture.

It Is True That As Christians, Nothing Can Separate Us From The Love Of God That Is In Christ Jesus Our Lord. The Love Of God That Is For Us Is Through Christ Jesus. 

CHRISTIANITY IS ALL ABOUT JESUS CHRIST!

YOU CANNOT LEAVE JESUS CHRIST OUT OF THE LOVE OF GOD. 

Some People May Think This Is Trivial, But I Believe That If A Little Left Out Here And A Little Change There Will Change The Meaning And Give A Deceptive Answer. 

I Warn You To Be Careful, To Be Aware, And To Be Alert As Christians, Because 

There Are So Many Evil Spirits, And They Are Deceiving The Children Of Jehovah God. 

Romans 8:38 New Living Translation

And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow — not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love.

Romans 8:39 New Living Translation

No power in the sky above or in the earth below — indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 8:38-39 King James Version

For I Am Persuaded, That Neither Death, Nor Life, Nor Angels, Nor Principalities, Nor Powers, Nor Things Present, Nor Things To Come, 

[39] Nor Height, Nor Depth, Nor Any Other Creature, Shall Be Able To Separate Us From The Love Of God, Which Is In Christ Jesus Our Lord.

RIGHTEOUSNESS THROUGH THE FAITH OF CHRIST

RIGHTEOUSNESS THROUGH THE FAITH OF CHRIST

God Gave The Law To Moses To Govern His People By, But God Also Gave The Law For The People To Keep Themselves Holy And Clean Before Him.

God Said To Moses If The People Will Keep His Law, He Will Bless Them; But If The People Break His Law, He Will Curse Them. 

The Reason I Teach The Fulfillment Of The Law By Christ Jesus Is That Our Faith In His Perfection And His Keeping The Law Is What Makes Us Holy And Clean Before God. Our Faith In Jesus Christ And His Perfection Is What Keeps Us Under Grace. When We Believe We Have To Keep The Law Ourselves, We Place Ourselves Under The Law And Not Under Grace, As The Jewish People. The Jewish People Are Still Under The Law Because They Do Not Believe In Christ Jesus. The Reason For The Perfection Of Christ Jesus Is For Us, Not Himself. Jesus Christ Had No Sins, He Is Perfect, And He Did Not Need To Offer A Sacrifice For His Sins But Ours. Jesus Christ Kept The Law So We Could Be Made Righteous Before God, Which Means We Are Holy And Clean Through His Perfection. The Blessing Of Keeping The Law That Is On Jesus Christ, He Transfers To Us At Salvation. When We Break One Of The Commands Of The Law, God Calls It Sin. For Every Sin We Commit, We Are Suppose To Offer A Sacrifice. Jesus Christ Went To The Cross And Died To Pay For All Of Our Sins. Jesus Christ Was Perfect Until He Took Every Sin Of The Whole World On Himself, That Is When He Became Sin, And That Is When He Became Sin For Us. 

Jesus Christ Became Sin So That We Could Receive His Righteousness. 

Through Faith In Jesus Christ And His Perfect Sacrifice, We Become Righteous. 

Christ Jesus Did Not Only Take Our Sins When He Was On His Cross, He Also Took The Curse Of The Law. 

Jesus Christ Became Cursed, Because, He, Was Hung On A Cross. 

Jesus Christ Died Our Death. 

Jesus Christ Went Into Hell In Our Place And Was Punished So That We Would Not Be. 

Jesus Christ Gave Himself As A Sacrifice For All Of The Sins That We Committed. 

Jesus Christ Was Raised From Death And Hell For Us To Be Triumphant Over Our Sins, Death, And Hell As Well As The Grave. 

Jesus Christ Did All Of That, So We Would Not Have To. 

Remember, Jesus Christ Came To Take Away Our Sins Which We Committed By Breaking The Law Of God. 

The Law Of God Is How We Know What Sin Is. 

The Bible Says Where There Is No Law, There Is No Sin. The Bible Says That We Are Not Under The Law, But We Are Under Grace. Faith In The Perfection Of Jesus Christ Is How Grace Works.  Grace Is Given To Us By Faith That Jesus Christ Did Everything Needed For Us To Become As He Is, A Child Of God,  Holy, And Clean Eternally.

Deuteronomy 11:26-28

Behold, I Set Before You This Day A Blessing And A Curse;  A Blessing, If Ye Obey The Commandments Of The Lord Your God, Which I Command You This Day: And A Curse, If Ye Will Not Obey The Commandments Of The Lord Your God, But Turn Aside Out Of The Way Which I Command You This Day, To Go After Other Gods, Which Ye Have Not Known.

Joshua 8:34 

And Afterward He Read All The Words Of The Law, The Blessings And Cursings, According To All That Is Written In The Book Of The Law.

Matthew 5:17-18

Think Not That I Am Come To Destroy The Law, Or The Prophets: I Am Not Come To Destroy, But To Fulfil. For Verily I Say Unto You, Till Heaven And Earth Pass, One Jot Or One Tittle Shall In No Wise Pass From The Law, Till All Be Fulfilled.

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:

John 19:30 

When Jesus Therefore Had Received The Vinegar, He Said, It Is Finished: And He Bowed His Head, And Gave Up The Ghost.

2 Corinthians 5:21 

For He Hath Made Him To Be Sin For Us, Who Knew No Sin; That We Might Be Made The Righteousness Of God In Him.

Romans 6:14 

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

Romans 5:13 

(For Until The Law Sin Was In The World: But Sin Is Not Imputed When There Is No Law.

Acts 2:27,31-32 

Because Thou Wilt Not Leave My Soul In Hell, Neither Wilt Thou Suffer Thine Holy One To See Corruption. 

[31]He Seeing This Before Spake Of The Resurrection Of Christ, That His Soul Was Not Left In Hell, Neither His Flesh Did See Corruption. This Jesus Hath God Raised Up, Whereof We All Are Witnesses.

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.

Revelation 1:5 

And From Jesus Christ, Who Is The Faithful Witness, And The First Begotten Of The Dead, And The Prince Of The Kings Of The Earth. Unto Him That Loved Us, And Washed Us From Our Sins In His Own Blood,

1 John 3:1-9 

Behold, What Manner Of Love The Father Hath Bestowed Upon Us, That We Should Be Called The Sons Of God: Therefore The World Knoweth Us Not, Because It Knew Him Not. Beloved, Now Are We The Sons Of God, And It Doth Not Yet Appear What We Shall Be: But We Know That, When He Shall Appear, We Shall Be Like Him; For We Shall See Him As He Is. And Every Man That Hath This Hope In Him Purifieth Himself, Even As He Is Pure. Whosoever Committeth Sin Transgresseth Also The Law: For Sin Is The Transgression Of The Law. And Ye Know That He Was Manifested To Take Away Our Sins; And In Him Is No Sin. Whosoever Abideth In Him Sinneth Not: Whosoever Sinneth Hath Not Seen Him, Neither Known Him. Little Children, Let No Man Deceive You: He That Doeth Righteousness Is Righteous, Even As He Is Righteous. 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. 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.

Philippians 3:9-10 

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;

You Are Not A Sinner Anymore,  Buy The Washing Of Christ Jesus, He Has Washed Us Clean In His Own Blood. 

I Can Give So Many More Holy Scriptures If You Need Them, Just Let Me Know.

BE CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST JESUS

BE CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST JESUS! 

Galatians 2:18-21

For If I Build Again The Things Which I Destroyed, I Make Myself A Transgressor. For I Through The Law Am Dead To The Law, That I Might Live Unto God.

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. I Do Not Frustrate The Grace Of God: For If Righteousness Come By The Law, Then Christ Is Dead In Vain.

1 John 1:9 

If We Confess Our Sins, HE IS FAITHFUL AND JUST TO FORGIVE US OUR SINS, AND TO CLEANSE US FROM ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS.

1 John 5:17-18 

All Unrighteousness Is Sin: And There Is A Sin Not Unto Death. We Know THAT WHOSOEVER IS BORN OF GOD SINNETH NOT; But He That Is Begotten Of God Keepeth Himself, And That Wicked One Toucheth Him Not.

1 John 1:7

But If We Walk In The Light, As He Is In The Light, We Have Fellowship One With Another, And THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST HIS SON CLEANSETH US FROM ALL SIN.

1 John 3:1-9 

Behold, What Manner Of Love The Father Hath Bestowed Upon Us, That We Should Be Called The Sons Of God: Therefore The World Knoweth Us Not, Because It Knew Him Not. Beloved, Now Are We The Sons Of God, And It Doth Not Yet Appear What We Shall Be: But We Know That, When He Shall Appear, We Shall Be Like Him; For We Shall See Him As He Is. And EVERY MAN THAT HATH THIS HOPE IN HIM PURIFIETH HIMSELF, EVEN AS HE IS PURE. Whosoever Committeth Sin Transgresseth Also The Law: For Sin Is The Transgression Of The Law. And YE KNOW THAT HE WAS MANIFESTED TO TAKE AWAY OUR SINS; AND IN HIM IS NO SIN. WHOSOEVER ABIDETH IN HIM SINNETH NOT: Whosoever Sinneth Hath Not Seen Him, Neither Known Him. Little Children, Let No Man Deceive You: He That Doeth Righteousness Is Righteous, Even As He Is Righteous. 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. 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.

I AM CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST: NEVERTHELESS I LIVE; YET NOT I, BUT CHRIST LIVETH IN ME. WE ARE DEAD TO THE FLESH, OURSELVES, AND OUR SINS. WE LIVE NOW IN THE LIFE OF CHRIST JESUS.  JESUS CHRIST LIVES IN US (JESUS CHRIST IS THE SEED OF GOD IN US). JESUS CHRIST LIVES IN US THROUGH THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST, WHO IS ALSO CALLED THE HOLY SPIRIT, OR HOLY GHOST, THIS IS BEING BORN AGAIN OF THE SPIRIT. 

THE BLOOD OF JESUS CLEANSES US FROM ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS SIN, WHILE WE ARE CLEAN THE HOLY SPIRIT SEALS US UNTO THE DAY OF REDEMPTION.

STIR UP YOUR PURE MINDS

STIR UP YOUR PURE MINDS

2 Timothy 4:3-4

For The Time Will Come When They Will Not Endure Sound Doctrine; But After Their Own Lusts Shall They Heap To Themselves Teachers, Having Itching Ears; And They Shall Turn Away Their Ears From The Truth, And Shall Be Turned Unto Fables.

2 Peter 2:2 

And Many Shall Follow Their Pernicious Ways; By Reason Of Whom The Way Of Truth Shall Be Evil Spoken Of.

1 Timothy 6:6-10 

But Godliness With Contentment Is Great Gain. For We Brought Nothing Into This World, And It Is Certain We Can Carry Nothing Out. And Having Food And Raiment Let Us Be Therewith Content. 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. 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.

1 Peter 5:8 

Be Sober, Be Vigilant; Because Your Adversary The Devil, As A Roaring Lion, Walketh About, Seeking Whom He May Devour:

2 Peter 3:1-3 

This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I Stir Up Your Pure Minds By Way Of Remembrance: That Ye May Be Mindful Of The Words Which Were Spoken Before By The Holy Prophets, And Of The Commandment Of Us The Apostles Of The Lord And Saviour: Knowing This First, That There Shall Come In The Last Days Scoffers, Walking After Their Own Lusts,

1 Timothy 6:11-12

But Thou, O Man Of God, Flee These Things; And Follow After Righteousness, Godliness, Faith, Love, Patience, Meekness. 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 so many posts on Facebook of people who I know have gone through so many hardships, and I am so sad to say that most of their troubles are because they have forgotten The Lord, Jesus Christ. Pernicious ways then have overtaken us. I know personally how it is to chase the dollar and never be content. There is always more, more, more that we want, and are never satisfied. A better job for more money, a bigger house, a nicer car, and finer clothes. We love jewelry, going on trips, and dining out. We think that we have made something of ourselves when we become what the world says is the best. I have and I have seen others who have chased these things do exactly what the Bible says we would do, we Pierced Themselves Through With Many Sorrows,  and They Shall Turn Away Their Ears From The Truth And Shall Be Turned Unto Fables. Divorce is one of the first things that come with discontentment. Shopping too much, and buying what you can't afford so means credit card debt. Ergo problems in the marriage, divorce. It is the children who suffer the most, they have to be okay with a divorce when they are not you send them to therapy. When it gets too hard for you, you turn to drugs or alcohol or read self-help books. We all need to understand that we are in a Spiritual battle, Be Sober, Be Vigilant; the devil is Your Adversary and is As A Roaring Lion, Walketh About, Seeking Whom He May Devour. STIR UP YOUR PURE MINDS By Way Of Remembrance: That Ye May Be Mindful Of The Words Which Were Spoken Before By The Holy Prophets, And Of The Commandment Of Us The Apostles Of The Lord And Saviour: Knowing This First, That There Shall Come In The Last Days Scoffers, Walking After Their Own Lusts. STIR UP YOUR PURE MINDS AND DON'T LET THE ADVERSARY DEVOUR YOU TOO. TURN TO THE LORD JESUS instead of men, or their books, or to the world's devices. Remember that it was the things of the world that got you in this position in the first place. TURN TO GOD, not the world! The Holy Spirit Is The Only Counselor That You And Your Family Need. Let The Holy Spirit Guide You Into All Truth. 

STIR UP YOUR PURE MINDS BY READING YOUR BIBLE, PRAYING, AND COMMUNICATING WITH THE CHILDREN OF GOD. 

FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH, LAY HOLD ON ETERNAL LIFE. 

PERNICIOUS: having a harmful effect, especially gradually or subtly.

DON'T FORGET JESUS CHRIST

DON'T FORGET JESUS CHRIST

2 Corinthians 8:7-9 

Therefore, As Ye Abound In Every Thing, In Faith, And Utterance, And Knowledge, And In All Diligence, And In Your Love To Us, SEE THAT YE ABOUND IN THIS GRACE ALSO. I Speak Not By Commandment, But By Occasion Of The Forwardness Of Others, And To Prove The Sincerity Of Your Love. FOR YE KNOW THE GRACE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, THAT, THOUGH HE WAS RICH, YET FOR YOUR SAKES HE BECAME POOR, THAT YE THROUGH HIS POVERTY MIGHT BE RICH.

Ephesians 2:4-10 

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: That In The Ages To Come He Might Shew The Exceeding Riches Of His Grace In His Kindness Toward Us Through Christ Jesus. FOR BY GRACE ARE YE SAVED THROUGH FAITH; AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD: Not Of Works, Lest Any Man Should Boast. For We Are His Workmanship, CREATED IN CHRIST JESUS Unto Good Works, Which God Hath Before Ordained That We Should Walk In Them.

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.

John 16:13-15 

Howbeit When He, The Spirit Of Truth, Is Come, He Will Guide You Into All Truth: FOR HE SHALL NOT SPEAK OF HIMSELF; BUT WHATSOEVER HE SHALL HEAR, THAT SHALL HE SPEAK: And He Will Shew You Things To Come. HE SHALL GLORIFY ME: FOR HE SHALL RECEIVE OF MINE, AND SHALL SHEW IT UNTO YOU. ALL THINGS THAT THE FATHER HATH ARE MINE: THEREFORE SAID I, THAT HE SHALL TAKE OF MINE, AND SHALL SHEW IT UNTO YOU.

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST JESUS, never forget The Holy Spirit teaches us what Jesus Christ Spoke To Him To Give. 

So many Christians grow in The Holy Spirit and The Spiritual Gifts so much that they forget about The Grace through Faith that was given to get them there in the first place. 

GRACE AND FAITH ARE BOTH GIFTS FROM GOD. 

DON'T GET SO SPIRITUAL THAT YOU FORGET THE HOLY,  THE PERFECT, THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS CHRIST! 

DON'T FORGET GRACE; 

DON'T FORGET JESUS CHRIST! 

GRACE: Divine favor bestowed freely on people, as in granting redemption from sin. A favor rendered by one who need not do so, Mercy; clemency, the state of having received such favor.

FAITH: complete trust or confidence in someone or something, strong belief in God or the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual apprehension rather than physical proof.

CONSCIENCE SEARED WITH A HOT IRON

CONSCIENCE SEARED WITH A HOT IRON

1 Timothy 4:1-5

Now The Spirit Speaketh Expressly, That In The Latter Times Some Shall Depart From The Faith, Giving Heed To Seducing Spirits, And Doctrines Of Devils; Speaking Lies In Hypocrisy; Having Their Conscience Seared With A Hot Iron; Forbidding To Marry, And Commanding To Abstain From Meats, Which God Hath Created To Be Received With Thanksgiving Of Them Which Believe And Know The Truth. For Every Creature Of God Is Good, And Nothing To Be Refused, If It Be Received With Thanksgiving: For It Is Sanctified By The Word Of God And Prayer.

When Your Conscience Is Seared With A Hot Iron It Is Harder For The Knowledge Of Good To Penetrate Through. You Will Accept More And More Evil Because You Can Not Feel That The Deed Is Evil. As Christians, We Have The Holy Spirit To Guide Us Into All Truth. As Christians, We Need To Accept What God Says Is Evil, As Evil. But We Seem To Want To Know Better Than God And We Prove It By Accepting The World's Definition Of Good And Evil. Read Your Bible. Get To Know God And His Holy Word As A Guideline For Us To Live By. Learn What Is Of God And What Is Not. The World Tells Us Things Are Diseases Instead Of Sinful. The World Says Alternative Lifestyle Instead Of Calling It Evil. The World Has Changed Words So We Can Receive Them More Easily. A WORD DOES MATTER, SO GET INTO THE WORD OF GOD Instead Of The Word Of The World. The Word Of God Is Relevant Today,  Read The Scriptures Above Again, The World Tells Us Not To Eat Meat, But What Does The Bible Say? 

Meats, Which God Hath Created To Be Received With Thanksgiving Of Them Which Believe And Know The Truth. Know The Truth And The Truth Shall Set You Free!

BY THE SPIRIT OF OUR GOD

BY THE SPIRIT OF OUR GOD

Romans 6:17-18,20,22-23 

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. 

[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. For The Wages Of Sin Is Death; But The Gift Of God Is Eternal Life Through Jesus Christ Our Lord.

Romans 7:4-25,8:1-16

Wherefore, My Brethren, Ye Also Are Become Dead To The Law By The Body Of Christ; That Ye Should Be Married To 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. For I Was Alive Without The Law Once: But When The Commandment Came, Sin Revived, And I Died. And The Commandment, Which Was Ordained To Life, I Found To Be Unto Death. For Sin, Taking Occasion By The Commandment, Deceived Me, And By It Slew Me. Wherefore The Law Is Holy, And The Commandment Holy, And Just, And Good. Was Then That Which Is Good Made Death Unto Me? God Forbid. But Sin, That It Might Appear Sin, Working Death In Me By That Which Is Good; That Sin By The Commandment Might Become Exceeding Sinful.  For We Know That The Law Is Spiritual: But I Am Carnal, Sold Under Sin. For That Which I Do I Allow Not: For What I Would, That Do I Not; But What I Hate, That Do I. If Then I Do That Which I Would Not, I Consent Unto The Law That It Is Good. Now Then It Is No More I That Do It, But Sin That Dwelleth In Me. For I Know That In Me (That Is, In My Flesh,) Dwelleth No Good Thing: For To Will Is Present With Me; But How To Perform That Which Is Good I Find Not. For The Good That I Would I Do Not: But The Evil Which I Would Not, That I Do. Now If I Do That I Would Not, It Is No More I That Do It, But Sin That Dwelleth In Me. I Find Then A Law, That, When I Would Do Good, Evil Is Present With Me. For I Delight In The Law Of God After The Inward Man: But I See Another Law In My Members, Warring Against The Law Of My Mind, And Bringing Me Into Captivity To The Law Of Sin Which Is In My Members. O Wretched Man That I Am! Who Shall Deliver Me From The Body Of This Death? I Thank God Through Jesus Christ Our Lord. So Then With The Mind I Myself Serve The Law Of God; But With The Flesh The Law Of Sin. There Is Therefore Now No Condemnation To Them Which Are In Christ Jesus, Who Walk Not After The Flesh, But After The Spirit. For The Law Of The Spirit Of Life In Christ Jesus Hath Made Me Free From The Law Of Sin And Death. For What The Law Could Not Do, In That It Was Weak Through The Flesh, God Sending His Own Son In The Likeness Of Sinful Flesh, And For Sin, Condemned Sin In The Flesh: That The Righteousness Of The Law Might Be Fulfilled In Us, Who Walk Not After The Flesh, But After The Spirit. For They That Are After The Flesh Do Mind The Things Of The Flesh; But They That Are After The Spirit The Things Of The Spirit. For To Be Carnally Minded Is Death; But To Be Spiritually Minded Is Life And Peace. Because The Carnal Mind Is Enmity Against God: For It Is Not Subject To The Law Of God, Neither Indeed Can Be. So Then They That Are In The Flesh Cannot Please God. 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. And If Christ Be In You, The Body Is Dead Because Of Sin; But The Spirit Is Life Because Of Righteousness. But If The Spirit Of Him That Raised Up Jesus From The Dead Dwell In You, He That Raised Up Christ From The Dead Shall Also Quicken Your Mortal Bodies By His Spirit That Dwelleth In You. Therefore, Brethren, We Are Debtors, Not To The Flesh, To Live After The Flesh. For If Ye Live After The Flesh, Ye Shall Die: But If Ye Through The Spirit Do Mortify The Deeds Of The Body, Ye Shall Live. For As Many As Are Led By The Spirit Of God, They Are The Sons Of God. For Ye Have Not Received The Spirit Of Bondage Again To Fear; But Ye Have Received The Spirit Of Adoption, Whereby We Cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit Itself Beareth Witness With Our Spirit, That We Are The Children Of God:

What These Scriptures Are Saying Is That Sin Had Me Enslaved. Sin Had Me So Confined That Even When I Wanted To Do Good, I Wouldn't.  I Was Such A Slave Because Of The Weakness Of My Flesh.  We Are All Fleshly Sinners When We Are Born. 

This Is Where Jesus Christ And His Salvation Comes In. 

When We Have Faith In Christ Jesus That He Kept The Whole Law Perfectly, We Are Saying That He Did It For Us. Where I Am Weak In My Flesh Jesus Christ Is Strong. Where I Could Not Keep The Law Because Of The Sinfulness Of My Flesh, Jesus Christ Came In Human Flesh And Was Without Sin And Kept The Law For Me. Keeping The Law Is What Would Make Us Righteous Enough To Come Before The Holy God And Have A Relationship With Him. Since Sin Had Me Enslaved I Would Not Keep The Law. But Read These Scriptures That Say We Are Not In The Flesh, But In The Spirit, If So Be That The Spirit Of God Dwell In Us.  God Sent His Own Son In The Likeness Of Sinful Flesh, And For Sin, Condemned Sin In The Flesh. The Law Of The Spirit Of Life In Christ Jesus Hath Made Me Free From The Law Of Sin And Death. God Be Thanked, That We Were The Servants Of Sin, But We Have Obeyed From The Heart That Form Of Doctrine Which Was Delivered Us. Making Us Free From Sin, We Became The Servants Of Righteousness. When We Were The Servants Of Sin, We Were Free From Righteousness But Now Being Made Free From Sin, And Become Servants To God. Sin Brings Condemnation And Death, But The Spirit Is Life Because Of Righteousness. We Have Not Received The Spirit Of Bondage Again To Fear; But We Have Received The Spirit Of Adoption, Whereby We Cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit Itself Bears Witness With Our Spirit, That We Are The Children Of God. No Longer Are We Servants Of Sin, But Free Children Of The Holy God. 

NO LONGER SINNERS, BUT WE ARE WASHED, BUT WE ARE SANCTIFIED, BUT WE ARE JUSTIFIED IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS, AND BY THE SPIRIT OF OUR GOD. 

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.

Free: Liberty, Not Under The Control Or In The Power Of, Not Or No Longer Confined Or Imprisoned, Without Cost Or Payment, Release From Captivity, Confinement, Or Slavery.

EXAMINE YOURSELVES

EXAMINE YOURSELVES

So many Christians take these two Holy Scriptures In 

1 Corinthians way out of context. When some read these two Scriptures they think that they can do anything that they desire because they are under Grace, this is true, but, and this is very important, after Salvation your desires are supposed to be changed from your old sinful desires to Godly desires. As  Christians, we have The Holy Spirit teaching us the way of Holiness. We can do whatever we desire, but our new desire is to Honor The Holy God.

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.

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.

Here are some Scriptures below that explain how we are to be changed from the old self to the new. There are so many more but these should be enough to prove my point. If you have a different belief then you need to examine yourself and see if you are truly in The Faith.

2 Corinthians 13:5 

EXAMINE YOURSELVES, Whether Ye Be In The Faith; Prove Your Own Selves. Know Ye Not Your Own Selves, How That Jesus Christ Is In You, Except Ye Be Reprobates?

Galatians 5:1,13

Stand Fast Therefore In The Liberty Wherewith Christ Hath Made Us Free, And Be Not Entangled Again With The Yoke Of Bondage.

[13] For, Brethren, Ye Have Been Called Unto Liberty; Only Use Not Liberty For An Occasion To The Flesh, But By Love Serve One Another.

Galatians 5:19-25 

Now The Works Of The Flesh Are Manifest, Which Are These; Adultery, Fornication, Uncleanness, Lasciviousness,  Idolatry, Witchcraft, Hatred, Variance, Emulations, Wrath, Strife, Seditions, Heresies, Envyings, Murders, Drunkenness, Revellings, And Such Like: Of The Which I Tell You Before, As I Have Also Told You In Time Past, That They Which Do Such Things Shall Not Inherit The Kingdom Of God. But The Fruit Of The Spirit Is Love, Joy, Peace, Longsuffering, Gentleness, Goodness, Faith,  Meekness, Temperance: Against Such There Is No Law. 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.

Romans 1:26-32 

For This Cause God Gave Them Up Unto Vile Affections: For Even Their Women Did Change The Natural Use Into That Which Is Against Nature: And Likewise Also The Men, Leaving The Natural Use Of The Woman, Burned In Their Lust One Toward Another; Men With Men Working That Which Is Unseemly, And Receiving In Themselves That Recompence Of Their Error Which Was Meet. And Even As They Did Not Like To Retain God In Their Knowledge, God Gave Them Over To A Reprobate Mind, To Do Those Things Which Are Not Convenient; Being Filled With All Unrighteousness, Fornication, Wickedness, Covetousness, Maliciousness; Full Of Envy, Murder, Debate, Deceit, Malignity; Whisperers, Backbiters, Haters Of God, Despiteful, Proud, Boasters, Inventors Of Evil Things, Disobedient To Parents, Without Understanding, Covenantbreakers, Without Natural Affection, Implacable, Unmerciful: Who Knowing The Judgment Of God, That They Which Commit Such Things Are Worthy Of Death, Not Only Do The Same, But Have Pleasure In Them That Do Them.

Ephesians 5:11,14-17 

And Have No Fellowship With The Unfruitful Works Of Darkness, But Rather Reprove Them. 

[14] Wherefore He Saith, Awake Thou That Sleepest, And Arise From The Dead, And Christ Shall Give Thee Light. See Then That Ye Walk Circumspectly, Not As Fools, But As Wise, Redeeming The Time, Because The Days Are Evil. Wherefore Be Ye Not Unwise, But Understanding What The Will Of The Lord Is.

1 Corinthians 6:9-11 

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. 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.

Romans 6:1-23 

What Shall We Say Then? Shall We Continue In Sin, That Grace May Abound? God Forbid. How Shall We, That Are Dead To Sin, Live Any Longer Therein? Know Ye Not, That So Many Of Us As Were Baptized Into Jesus Christ Were Baptized Into His Death? Therefore We Are Buried With Him By Baptism Into Death: That Like As Christ Was Raised Up From The Dead By The Glory Of The Father, Even So We Also Should Walk In Newness Of Life. For If We Have Been Planted Together In The Likeness Of His Death, We Shall Be Also In The Likeness Of His Resurrection: Knowing This, That Our Old Man Is Crucified With Him, That The Body Of Sin Might Be Destroyed, That Henceforth We Should Not Serve Sin. For He That Is Dead Is Freed From Sin. Now If We Be Dead With Christ, We Believe That We Shall Also Live With Him: Knowing That Christ Being Raised From The Dead Dieth No More; Death Hath No More Dominion Over Him. For In That He Died, He Died Unto Sin Once: But In That He Liveth, He Liveth Unto God. Likewise Reckon Ye Also Yourselves To Be Dead Indeed Unto Sin, But Alive Unto God Through Jesus Christ Our Lord. Let Not Sin Therefore Reign In Your Mortal Body, That Ye Should Obey It In The Lusts Thereof. Neither Yield Ye Your Members As Instruments Of Unrighteousness Unto Sin: But Yield Yourselves Unto God, As Those That Are Alive From The Dead, And Your Members As Instruments Of Righteousness Unto God. 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. 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. For When Ye Were The Servants Of Sin, Ye Were Free From Righteousness. What Fruit Had Ye Then In Those Things Whereof Ye Are Now Ashamed? For The End Of Those Things Is Death. 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 FRUIT OF OUR LIPS GIVING THANKS TO HIS NAME

THE FRUIT OF OUR LIPS GIVING THANKS TO HIS NAME

Psalm 150:1-6 

Praise Ye The Lord. Praise God In His Sanctuary: Praise Him In The Firmament Of His Power. Praise Him For His Mighty Acts: Praise Him According To His Excellent Greatness. Praise Him With The Sound Of The Trumpet: Praise Him With The Psaltery And Harp. Praise Him With The Timbrel And Dance: Praise Him With Stringed Instruments And Organs. Praise Him Upon The Loud Cymbals: Praise Him Upon The High Sounding Cymbals. Let Every Thing That Hath Breath Praise The Lord. Praise Ye The Lord.

Hebrews 13:15-16 

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.

Our Voices, Whether We Are Singing Or Speaking Should Honor And Glorify The Lord. Singing Is Worship And Speaking Is For Testifying About The Goodness Of God. THE FRUIT OF OUR LIPS GIVING THANKS TO HIS NAME

THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST

Exodus 24:12 

And The Lord Said Unto Moses, Come Up To Me Into The Mount, And Be There: And I Will Give Thee Tables Of Stone, And A Law, And Commandments Which I Have Written; That Thou Mayest Teach Them.

Joshua 8:30-32,34-35 

Then Joshua Built An Altar Unto The Lord God Of Israel In Mount Ebal,  As Moses The Servant Of The Lord Commanded The Children Of Israel, As It Is Written In The Book Of The Law Of Moses, An Altar Of Whole Stones, Over Which No Man Hath Lift Up Any Iron: And They Offered Thereon Burnt Offerings Unto The Lord, And Sacrificed Peace Offerings. And He Wrote There Upon The Stones A Copy Of The Law Of Moses, Which He Wrote In The Presence Of The Children Of Israel. 

[34] And Afterward He Read All The Words Of The Law, The Blessings And Cursings, According To All That Is Written In The Book Of The Law. There Was Not A Word Of All That Moses Commanded, Which Joshua Read Not Before All The Congregation Of Israel, With The Women, And The Little Ones, And The Strangers That Were Conversant Among Them.

Joshua 1:8 

This Book Of The Law Shall Not Depart Out Of Thy Mouth; But Thou Shalt Meditate Therein Day And Night, That Thou Mayest Observe To Do According To All That Is Written Therein: For Then Thou Shalt Make Thy Way Prosperous, And Then Thou Shalt Have Good Success.

Deuteronomy 6:6-7 

And These Words, Which I Command Thee This Day, Shall Be In Thine Heart: And Thou Shalt Teach Them Diligently Unto Thy Children, And Shalt Talk Of Them When Thou Sittest In Thine House, And When Thou Walkest By The Way, And When Thou Liest Down, And When Thou Risest Up.

Jeremiah 31:31-34 

Behold, The Days Come, Saith The Lord, That I Will Make A New Covenant With The House Of Israel, And With The House Of Judah: Not According To The Covenant That I Made With Their Fathers In The Day That I Took Them By The Hand To Bring Them Out Of The Land Of Egypt; Which My Covenant They Brake, Although I Was An Husband Unto Them, Saith The Lord: But This Shall Be The Covenant That I Will Make With The House Of Israel; After Those Days, Saith The Lord, I Will Put My Law In Their Inward Parts, And Write It In Their Hearts; And Will Be Their God, And They Shall Be My People. And They Shall Teach No More Every Man His Neighbour, And Every Man His Brother, Saying, Know The Lord: For They Shall All Know Me, From The Least Of Them Unto The Greatest Of Them, Saith The Lord: For I Will Forgive Their Iniquity, And I Will Remember Their Sin No More.

Deuteronomy 28:58 

If Thou Wilt Not Observe To Do All The Words Of This Law That Are Written In This Book, That Thou Mayest Fear This Glorious And Fearful Name, The Lord Thy God;

Deuteronomy 30:15-19 

See, I Have Set Before Thee This Day Life And Good, And Death And Evil; In That I Command Thee This Day To Love The Lord Thy God, To Walk In His Ways, And To Keep His Commandments And His Statutes And His Judgments, That Thou Mayest Live And Multiply: And The Lord Thy God Shall Bless Thee In The Land Whither Thou Goest To Possess It. But If Thine Heart Turn Away, So That Thou Wilt Not Hear, But Shalt Be Drawn Away, And Worship Other Gods, And Serve Them; I Denounce Unto You This Day, That Ye Shall Surely Perish, And That Ye Shall Not Prolong Your Days Upon The Land, Whither Thou Passest Over Jordan To Go To Possess It. I Call Heaven And Earth To Record This Day Against You, That I Have Set Before You Life And Death, Blessing And Cursing: Therefore Choose Life, That Both Thou And Thy Seed May Live:

Hebrews 10:10,14-23 

By The Which Will We Are Sanctified Through The Offering Of The Body Of Jesus Christ Once For All. [14] For By One Offering He Hath Perfected For Ever Them That Are Sanctified. Whereof The Holy Ghost Also Is A Witness To Us: For After That He Had Said Before, This Is The Covenant That I Will Make With Them After Those Days, Saith The Lord, I Will Put My Laws Into Their Hearts, And In Their Minds Will I Write Them; And Their Sins And Iniquities Will I Remember No More. Now Where Remission Of These Is, There Is No More Offering For Sin. Having Therefore, Brethren, Boldness To Enter Into The Holiest By The Blood Of Jesus, By A New And Living Way, Which He Hath Consecrated For Us, Through The Veil, That Is To Say, His Flesh; And Having An High Priest Over The House Of God; Let Us Draw Near With A True Heart In Full Assurance Of Faith, Having Our Hearts Sprinkled From An Evil Conscience, And Our Bodies Washed With Pure Water. Let Us Hold Fast The Profession Of Our Faith Without Wavering; (For He Is Faithful That Promised;)

God Wrote His Law On Tablets Of Stone For The People To Live By. They Were To Meditate On Them And Teach Them To Their Children. God Told The People To Know And Keep Every Command And Be Blessed, But If They Do Not Keep The Law Of God They Will Be Cursed. Keeping The Law Of God Is The Only Way The People Could Stay In Good Favor With God. Breaking The Law Would Bring The Curse Of God Upon Them. 

When Jesus Christ Was Born In Human Form He Was Under The Same Law As Everyone Else. 

The Whole Reason Why Jesus Christ Came Was To Keep The Law Of God Perfectly. When Jesus Christ Kept The Law Of God Perfectly There Is No More Need For Us To Keep It. We Cannot Do Better Than Jesus Christ. When Jesus Christ Does Something There Is No Topping Him. 

If We Would Have Kept The Law Of God As Jesus Christ Did Then He Would Not Have Had To Sacrifice Himself. 

If People Would Keep The Law Of God There Would Have Been No Sin For Jesus Christ To Atone For. 

The Law Of God Is Righteous, Righteous Is Who God Is. The Righteousness Of The Law Of God Had To Be Fulfilled By Us, But We Didn't Because Of Our Sinful Fleshly Lusts. Faith In Christ Jesus Fulfills The Righteousness Required By The Righteous God. Faith In The Sacrifice Of Christ Jesus Fulfills Our Need For Sacrifice. Faith In Christ Jesus And His Atonement Fulfills The Need For Us To Atone For Our Sins. Faith In Christ Jesus That He Kept The Law Of God Fulfills Our Need To Meditate Therein Day And Night, That Thou Mayest Observe To Do According To All That Is Written. Faith In Christ Jesus And His Payment For Our Sins Fulfills Our Need To Pay For Them. When We Have Faith That Jesus Christ Died To Sin One Time We Believe That Our Sins Died With Him. Jesus Christ Died For And In Our Trespasses And Sins So That We Don't Have To.  Jesus Christ Went Into Hell To Pay For Our Sins, He Took The Wrath And The Curse Of God For Breaking The Law Of God, So That We Don't Have To. Jesus Christ Is Sinless And Perfect And Was Made To Be Sin So That We Could Become Righteous. 

When We Have Faith In The Resurrection Of Jesus Christ From The Dead We Believe That We Were Given New Life Also. 

Everything In Christianity Is About Jesus Christ His Birth, His Perfect Life, His Perfect Sacrifice, His Beatings, His Taking Our Sins Upon Himself, His Death, His Paying In Hell, His Resurrection, His Ascension, His Return, His Calling Us Into Everlasting Life, Christianity Is All Because Of Him! JEsus Christ Sacrificed Himself So We Won't Have To. Faith In Christ Jesus Makes Us Into His Image. Everything That Jesus Christ Did, We Did Too, Through Faith. 

The Very Same Spirit That Is In Jesus Christ, Is In Us Too. 

Romans 6:10-11 

For In That He Died, He Died Unto Sin Once: But In That He Liveth, He Liveth Unto God. Likewise Reckon Ye Also Yourselves To Be Dead Indeed Unto Sin, But Alive Unto God Through Jesus Christ Our Lord.

Romans 8:29 

For Whom He Did Foreknow, He Also Did Predestinate To Be Conformed To The Image Of His Son, That He Might Be The Firstborn Among Many Brethren.

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. 

Romans 8:3-4

For What The Law Could Not Do, In That It Was Weak Through The Flesh, God Sending His Own Son In The Likeness Of Sinful Flesh, And For Sin, Condemned Sin In The Flesh: That The Righteousness Of The Law Might Be Fulfilled In Us, Who Walk Not After The Flesh, But After The Spirit.

Romans 6:14 

FOR SIN SHALL NOT HAVE DOMINION OVER YOU: FOR YE ARE NOT UNDER THE LAW, BUT UNDER GRACE.

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. FOR THE LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS HATH MADE ME FREE FROM THE LAW OF SIN AND DEATH.

WITH THE SPIRIT OF HIS MOUTH, AND SHALL DESTROY WITH THE BRIGHTNESS OF HIS COMING. 

LET'S TALK ABOUT JESUS! 

Jesus Christ Is The Only Begotten Son Of God. 

Jesus Christ Was Born Of A Virgin. 

Jesus Christ Was Human As Well As God. 

Jesus Christ Was A Jewish Man.
