Do you believe in God?

In the beginning there was darkness in the galaxies of planets and star and God was the creator. God’s infinite power of creativity was tested on mother Earth. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The world was with out form, and God moved his face across the waters. God wanted to see this beautiful planet exposed with light, so he made light and divided the light from day and he shall that it was good, and called it the first day.

 Praise God that he is alive. He created the world and keeps it. He commands the nations and reveals his glory in human history. He is all-powerful and can help us in great and small things. Study the history of the nations and learn that those who obeyed God's commands went forward.
God gave the Ten Commandments to Moses and these are the basis of the good life for everyone. He who neglects God's law is evil and the cause of much pain to himself and others. Have you ever wondered why kidnappings, murder, theft, etc., are becoming more frequent, and how sin takes shape in all kinds of degradation and scandal? The cause of this evil is that we have lost reverence for God and have neglected the commandments he laid down for all. Nations that care only for money drift into sinful pleasure, and crime increases there. Facing such disorder and chaos, we call on every person to turn to the living God for he alone can give true salvation. Call upon him, as the prophet Jeremiah did, "O land, land, land, hear the word of the Lord" (Jeremiah 22:29) O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the LORD.
 "They have forsaken me, the spring of living water, and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water" (Jeremiah 2:13). God says in his word, "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart" (Jeremiah 29:13).
Come to the Lord, for one day every life will be exposed before this holy God. Before his glory no one will stand innocent. And all our faults and sins since childhood will be brought to light. But this holy God loves us and longs for our fellowship. Though we have left him, he sent his chosen one, Jesus Christ, to lift the barrier between him and us. Jesus carried our sins in his body and received the punishment for them on the cross, offering to us all a perfect and eternal cleansing. "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world" (John 1:29).
Dear friend, your sins have been laid on Christ, so that you may have peace with God and your soul may be healed of its wounds. If you come to the Crucified One and trust in him, you will find that his blood cleanses you from all sin, even if you happen to be a murderer, a fanatic or a blasphemer. Whatever your sins, great or small, Christ forgives them all. Whoever truly repents and does not hide his sin will hear the Lord's word of divine comfort, "My son, your sins are forgiven." Then the heavenly truth emerges, "As the father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him" (Psalm 103:13).

Hand your life over to Christ and be sure that he will lead you on your way by his eternal wisdom and his overcoming love. He will give you a new heart and create an upright spirit within you, and you will confess with us that God is not a distant stranger to be feared but that he is our heavenly Father through our Saviour, our Lord Jesus Christ.

The Gain of Salvation

 

Where do you find salvation? And once you find it, what do you do to keep it? Dear friend, lets talk about were salvation comes from. God’s infinite love for man God, created man in the imagine of him self. (Genesis 1:27) God instructed man to obey him (Genesis 2:17) But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. God’s warning of instruction had no choice on our behalf, But we failed by the lying words of the serpent (The Devil) Genesis 3:4,5) And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
5: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

 

 From that day forward that Adam and Eve disobeyed God by eating of the forbidden tree of knowledge of good and evil. Sin entered into this world.

 

It was one that entered into this world (The Devil) to destroy our wonderful relationship with God, because of pride. We lost our truth with God. As the years pasted on sin got so bad in the world that it was like poison to God. (Genesis 6:5,6)    

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.

6: And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.

 

God saved Noah and 7 others that were his family, and the world was flooded with the rain of God’s wrath from Heaven. God was tried of seeing sin so he saved the ones that were obedient onto him. (Genesis 6:8,9) But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
9: These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.

 

Now we understand that sin is an enemy of God. What must we do to get saved? First, we must understand that we are born into this world as sinners and are short of the Glory of God. (Romans 3:23) For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

 

Because of God infinite love this is what he did for us to have salvation. (John 3:16)                 

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

 

Through Jesus Christ he was going to save us from our sins (Matthews 1:21)

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

 

Does this mean that if we believe in Jesus that we will be saved, and continue in our daily sin we will go to heaven?  Wrong!! (Romans 6:1,2) What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2: God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

 

What did Jesus say unto us in order for us to make it into heaven?

(John 3:3) Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

 

Ok? What must we do to get born again?  There was a man by the name of Nicodemus that ask that question of Jesus. (John 3:4,5,6) Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
5: Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6: That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7: Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

 

We must confess our sins to Jesus Christ for the remission of all of our sins and he will wash you in his precious blood. (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,

 

I Peter 1:19 & 23) 19: But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

23: Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever

 

If anyone wants to give there heart to the Lord. Please turn to your bible in Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

 

                                                  “My Challenge to you”

 

If you are not a Christian, I invite you to receive the hope and peace in your heart that only Jesus gives.

  To become a Christian, you must deal with Christ Jesus directly. In A quiet moment, bow your head and talk to him. In your own words say something like this:

 “Dear Lord Jesus, I am a sinner. I believe that you died and rose from the dead to save me from my sins. I want to be with you in heaven forever. God, forgive me of all my sins that I have committed against you. I here and now open my heart to you and ask you to come into my heart and life and be my personnel Savior. Amen.”

 If you say that to Christ and mean it, He will come in instantly. At once you will sense you have been transferred from the devil’s dominion to the kingdom of God.

 

Have a wonderful Day

The life of addiction

What is the life of addiction? Well, this mean someone is caught up in some bad habit. This word addiction; is highly heard in people taking drugs, or have become an alcoholic. The ones trying to kick the bad habit need help from an expert to rehabilitate them.  

Trying to help yourself deal with your own problems can get you very frustrating. The best way to kick that bad habit is through Doctor Jesus, he is the best prescription for your problems. We finally came to our senses to realize that we were guilty of sin, and jeopardizing our souls to damnation for the rest of our lives, And we came to someone that can help detoxicify us from the filth of sin to remove what is not needed for the new life to come.

 (John 2:15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

Remember when we came to our senses we came to terms that our bad habit’s would prevent us from receiving mercy to inherit eternal security. At this point we needed to go to a higher authority, and his name is Jesus Christ. Admitting your faults of sin with all your bad addiction to Jesus, and he will wash them away in his precious blood in the name of Jesus. He doesn’t just remove half the sins, and works on the rest later he removes them all. Remember, we have to put in mind that the Lord will come like a thief in the night. We will not know the hour, or time when he will come saying that, take that in consideration that you must be on alert at all times. That means to fulfill our obligation of our terms to live the life of holiness, and be an acceptable vessel before the Lord.

(Matthew 24:42,43,44)Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

 Have you heard the story of the rich man that wanted to go to heaven? The rich man asked Jesus. How could I inherit the Kingdom of Heaven? The rich man said, I have kept the rules of the Ten Commandments since I was young what do I yet lack to inherit the kingdom of heaven? Jesus replied, sell all that you have and give to the poor, and come and follow me. That did not go very well with the rich man, for he had great possessions that became an addiction that became his God. You can’t love mammon (Money) more then God. It seems that the more you have, the better you feel.  And God become last in your life, because you feel you have all you need accept God.     

(Matthew 19:16-23) And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? 

And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet?
Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.
But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.

Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.            

 His addiction that he had was money. It’s not a sin, to be rich; it’s the love of money that can corrupt the soul from spiritual prosperity. (I Timothy 6:10) For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

Let’s talk about our total surrender with Christ, have you really given it all up? Did we put up the white flag, and dropped our weapons? It’s time to walk in righteous and leave our sins behind.

Reminder, when living in sin, who? was the source of ideas in the life style of sin? There is only one, slue foot himself, Lucifer (The Devil). He was never up to no good, have you ever watch a cartoon that had the Devil on one shoulder, and the angel of God on the other shoulder, advising what he or she is supposes to do. When we are adopted in the hands of the Lord we as Christian will have to deal with the slue foot himself (The Devil) he going try his hardest to get us to fall on the wayside. He will remind you of your old addiction you had in the pass, and try to resurface them to remembrance.

 Let me remind you that the word of the Lord tells us that we are surrendering our whole complete life to the Lord Jesus Christ as a living sacrifice; we have confessed our sins to the Lord Jesus to forgive us from our iniquity’s, our body and soul belongs to the Lord you will be in good hands. (Romans 12:1)I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.(I Corinthians 6:19)What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

If you say, I have a problem’s with lust, and God knows of this weakness, and in your own understand that God is working with this issue, wouldn’t you think; that if you’ve ask Jesus to remove all your iniquity’s from your life, God wouldn’t just remove half the sins from your life, and work on the other have later, he those a complete job to get you ready to enter the kingdom of heaven. Remember that we are on alert for the good theft to take up home (Matthew 24:44)

Are you ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ?

          

1. Love not the world and the pride of life  (John 2:15,16)

15: Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16: For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

2. Do you feel intimidated to talk about the gospel (Luke 9:26)

26: For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.

3: For I am not ashamed to talk about the gospel  (Romans 1:16 )

16: For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek

4: Justified by faith, glory in tribulations having patience with experience and holding on to hope don’t be ashamed to come to God. (Romans 5:1-5)

    1: Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
2: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
3: And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
4: And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
5: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

5: What fruits are ye in this world ? (Romans 6:19-22)

18: Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
19: I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.
20: For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
21: What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22: But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.

6: Whoso believeth on him shall not be ashamed  (Romans 10:11)

11: For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

7: Having no shame having a back bone as a true Christian, Speak with boldness, and authority

    (II Corinthians 10:8)

8: For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed:

8: I shall not be moved but, magnify Christ with boldness. (Philippians 1:20)

20: According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

9: True Christians go through abuse when they display there love for Christ.

(John 15:19) 19: If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hated you.

10: If you suffer as a Christian don’t be ashamed (I Peter 4:16)

16: Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.

 11: We are a sheep for the slaughter all the day long (Psalms 44:23)
 22: Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter

12. As we know that we are sheep for the slaughter. The lord becomes the lamp for the slaughter for us. (Jeremiah 11:19)  

 But I was like a lamb or an ox that is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had devised devices against me, saying, Let us destroy the tree with the fruit thereof, and let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may be no more remembered.

The Greatest Gift of God’s wisdom

 Start your study for the book of  (I Corinthians 2:9-16)

1)    Man has not seen or thought in there hearts the greatest gifts for the Christian. (I Corinthians 2:9

           9: But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
    

2)    Jesus said that he was going always to make a place for us .

(John 14:2,3)

2: In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3: And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

3)    The spirit of God knows what to pray about, they’re time we are praying for the wrong thing.   (Romans 8:26,27)

          26: Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
27: And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.  “See also that Jesus was groaning in his spirit to raise Lazarus from the grave (John 11:38)

38: Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

4)    The breathe of life was giving to us by God not this world

(Genesis 2:7)

       7: And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

5)    For the wisdom of man is the foolishness of God

(I Corinthians 3:18-21)

18: 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.
19: For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
20: And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
21: Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;

6)    The works of God are spiritual, and the works of man or of the flesh (See the miracle of God raising Lazarus from the grave

(John 12:16,17)

16: These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.
17: The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record.

7)    The natural man receiveth not the thing of the spirit of God

(I John 4:4-6)

 4: 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.
5: They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.
6: 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.

8)    Jesus is the Judge if we would Judge our self we should not be judge (I Corinthians 11:31-32)

          31: For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
         32: But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we           should not be condemned with the world

        

9)    For who hath known the mind of the Lord (John 14:10)

        

    Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
10) Greater works will we do in this world through our Lord Jesus Christ (John 14:12)

 12: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

Clean talking

Ephesians 5:4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. 

Protect your valuable assets which are the Lords.

II Timothy 2:16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.  

Collect all the valuable benefits

Psalms 68:19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah. 

What a person learns and hear, is what a person begins to adapt too. In other words if you hear a song repeatedly it sticks, and you will sing or hum that song you’ve heard. Your surrounding life should be protected by you in order to adhere to Godliness to be shielded from the desires of the world’s character.

Communication of a converted vessel of Jesus Christ

Proverbs 4:24 Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.

Philiemon 1:6 That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging
of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus. ... 

Colossians 3:8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.

Slang is the use of informal words and expressions that are not considered standard in the speaker's language or dialect but are considered more acceptable when used

Ephesians 5:4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. 

Put away, means to not bring back

II Samuel 12:13 And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.

After putting away that which is not needed there must be a void to be filled.

Philippians 1:11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

True worship and praise is a must

**Praying is not worship? Praying is asking God for something.

Praises is not worship? Praises is when God has answered your prayer. And when you received it you praise him.

Worship is feeling of the Heart, when you have Jesus, and love him. Worship him in truth – when you worship him it’s in love spirit and in truth.

Psalm 118:28-29 Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, I will exalt thee.29 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

(Ephesians 5:8,9) For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: 9: (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)

Psalm 66:20 Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.

Hebrew 13:15 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. 

Do not full fill the lust of the flesh, but full fill the desires of the spirit of God. Why do we need to worship the Lord? Why can’t we just come to church, and just hear the word of the day, or evening, and just live a good life as a Christian, and just don’t worry about praising the Lord?

How do we feel when getting up in the morning and you lack strength to go through the day? Where does your strength come from? You need rest and good eating habits helps keep your body moving at a good pace.

The bible said that we do not live by bread alone, we are feed by God through the word of God. 

Through your life you are a target for the Devil to attack you for the relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. In other words, you need to be covered in the strength of the Lord all the time, By praising and worshiping him the Lord Jesus knows that you love him, first of all" plus he will know the type of strength you will need to get through this life in this world.          

Deuteronomy 8:3 And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.

Let’s look at this in a spiritual way.

Psalms 150:6 Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.

The Lord said if we don’t praise him the rocks will.

Luke 19:40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

The Lord is your strength

Exodus 15:2 The LORD [is] my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he [is] my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him.

Romans 14:11 For it is written, [As] I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.  

Are we thankful? How do we appreciate our daily reward?

Hebrews 12:28  Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

Potter at wheel

If you let the artist of your life mold you into a beautiful sculpture, he will make you into a goriest piece of art” You will never want to leave the hands of the artist that made you. Its time! Come all, and run to the creator of all things. He is the key to your life and the preserver for your future. Remember that if you will seek you will find. The Lord Jesus Christ is the savior for all the people. If you come to him he will in no wise cast you out. Let’s understand the story of the potter at the wheel.   

        

Jeremiah 18: 1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, 2Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words. 3Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels. 4And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.5Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 6O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.

Without God you can do nothing. We need advise like direction, and strength through the Lord. Let God mold our lives to be refined perfected and strengthen. A true craftsman will spend many hours creating the work of his heart. Jesus works with us, for a life time. But if we change direction while the potter is hard at work molding the creation of his heart. How will he be able to create and refine?

Romans 9:20-21 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?21Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?

A cleansed vessel of God becomes the property of God. I Corinthian 7:22,23 For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant. 23Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.  

You are not of the world, so the world will hate its own, but you of the Lord.

St. John 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

Sanctify yourself in Holiness body, in mind, and heart. John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

Jesus is the vine we are the branches 

St. John 15:3-5 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. 4Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him,   

Wrong mix can ruin the clay. II Corinthian 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 15And what concord hath Christ with Belial? (Belial means Satan) or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? (Infidel means one who is not a Christian or who opposes Christianity)

Paul urges believers not to form binding relationship with nonbelievers because this might weaken their Christian’s commitment, integrity, or standards. Earlier, Paul had explained that this did not mean isolating themselves from nonbelievers.

Paul wanted believing spouses I Corinthians 7:12,13 12But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away. 13And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him

Paul wanted believers to be active in their witness for Christ to nonbelievers, but they should not lock themselves into personal or business relationships that could cause them to compromise their faith. Believers should avoid situations that would force them to divide their loyalties.

Jesus didn’t come for the righteous he came to sinners for repentance Matthew 9:10-13 And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples. 11And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners? 12But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick. 13But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. 

Self-righteous person are those that refuse to allow God to mold them on the potter’s wheel. Matthew 23:25-26 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. 26Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also. 

Proverbs 14:12 12There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death

Time?

How much time do you have on the clock to repentance? Not enough time. In our life we are always racing the clock for time. Can one turn the clock back and gain back and retrieve what was lost? You are appointed a time to meet a dead line and, you know what a takes to meet the required task. (And that is called preparations) If you were told that you had to perform a task because your life depended on that time, you would put everything aside that you normally do to save your life, wouldn't you? 

Keep your children from the pollution of this world and show them the well of the Lord

Ephesians 6:4 And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

Can you turn the week of the day back? Can you have 2 Monday’s? Or, could you add more time to a clock? Are there more than 7 days in a week?       

Think on this, where are your children going if they have an appointed time to die? Have you prepared your life for their life? Or, if the Lord comes, and you or, your husband or, wife is not saved will your child be glad you sent them to hell?  

I Corinthians 7:14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.

This applies to all

Hebrew 12:14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord   

Don’t think that you have time to wait to ask the Lord into your life. Remember we are not the creator. We depend on a clock, the Lord will come, ready or not at any giving time the Lord Jesus will come and you may not have straiten your life with the Lord, and it will be too late. (Be ready)                    

Hebrews 12:17  For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.   

II Corinthians 6:2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

A time for everything

Ecclesiastes 3: To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

2A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

3A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

4A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

5A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

6A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

7A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

8A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

9What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth? 10I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.

Are you ready to meet the Lord?

Seek and ye shall find ....
