Is she mixed up:
Colossians 1:27 ...this mystery ..... CHRIST IN YOU ....
Christ CAME THE SECOND TIME at pentecost; in SPIRIT, as the Holy Ghost.
Hebrews 9:28 So, Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many (first coming, as flesh), and unto them that look for him (as a thief in the night) he shall appear the SECOND TIME (unseen like a thief, as the Holy Ghost) without SIN UNTO SALVATION.
Philippians 2:13 For it is GOD (the life of the body) that WORKETH in you (his body) both TO WILL and TO DO his good pleasure.
Revelation 20:6 Blesses and HOLY (Christ in you) is he (the body of Christ) that hath part in the FIRST RESURRECTION ..
John 11:25 ....I am THE RESURRECTION, and the LIFE, he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall HE LIVE.
CHRIST IN YOU.
1 John 2:27 The anointing (THE LIFE) in you ....... will teach you ALL THINGS .......
Colossians 3:3 For ye are DEAD, and your LIFE is HID with Christ in God.
Christ blood COVERS our sins, to REPENT means to change your way of thinking, or your beliefs.
It takes lots of studying God's word and lots of repenting in the way, and things, we believe.
God Bless you.
Thanks for sharing that. It sounds like you are strong in the Lord and have a positive attitude. That is encouraging. Maybe God has called you to serve and help others in the community there. I am sorry you have no home and prayed for you.
Please keep in touch and let us know how you're doing.
God bless
It sounds like you're assuming the Sabbath and worshipping God are supposed to be the same day instead of two separate days. Do you recall what led you to draw this conclusion?
We are to worship, follow, and honor God every day. First century Christians met on the first day of the week which I believe is Sunday. This custom has continued until today, but it is good to gather and worship anytime. Jesus was resurrected on Monday and some believe this is the Lord's Day. Bible references: Acts 20:7, 1 Cor 16:1-2, Psalms 118:24
I noticed you tried to discredit Sunday by referring to a pagan name, but not Saturday even though the same smear tactic could be applied. For me, pagans don't own the days, don't own the names, and have no power, just like they don't own Christmas and won't prevent me from celebrating Christ's birth, and just how sodomites don't own the rainbow, which God made and means God's promise, not the sin that some cults and loud bullies associate with it.
Prayers and condolences go out to you and your family.
God bless you.
These two covenants are as far apart as the east is from the west.
Revelation 21:5 ......I make ALL THINGS NEW ........
In the Old Covenant, LIFE was in the BLOOD.
Flesh and Blood CANNOT inherit the NEXT AGE.
Christ came as a BODY of Flesh and Blood.
John 3:7 .....ye must be BORN AGAIN.
We CANNOT inherit the next age, because we are still flesh and blood.
When this BODY of flesh and blood DIES, it goes back to dust from whence it came.
The LIFE goes back to GOD that gave the BODY LIFE.
1 Corinthians 15:49 ....we SHALL bear the image of the heavenly ....
1 Corinthians 15:53 ...this mortal SHALL PUT ON IMMORTALITY (Christ) ...
1 Timothy 6:16 Who (CHRIST) ONLY hath immortality ....
1 Corinthians 15:38 God giveth it (the NEW COVENANT IN CHRIST) a BODY as it hath pleased, and to ever SEED HIS (Christ's) own BODY (I AM the RESURRECTION John 11:25)
YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN.
John 3:16 Whosoever BELIEVES SHALL (at the DEATH of this flesh and blood body) BE SAVED .....Delivered.
Revelation 12:1 ...A WOMAN (Christ bride) .....
Revelation 12:2 An she (Christ's bride) being with CHILD cried, travailing in BIRTH, and pained to be DELIVERED (given a BODY to exist in the NEW COVENANT.
Revelation 12:5 And she brought forth a man Child, who was to RULE ALL NATIONS with a rod of iron .....
Revelation 2:26 And he that overcometh (the deception of this age, free will) and keepeth MY WORKS ( Philippians 2:13 For it is GOD that WORKETH IN YOU both TO WILL and TO DO his good pleasure), to him will I give power over the nation.
Revelation 2:27 And he shall RULE THEM with a red of iron, even as I received of MY FATHER ( Psalms 2:8-9) ...
Ephesians 4:6 One God and Father OF ALL .....
Christ pour out his blood, and the flesh and blood BODY, DIED.
The Father RAISED Christ's BODY from the GRAVE and gave him a NEW BODY.
A Flesh and Bone BODY, the blood no longer the LIFE; but, the LIFE was SPIRIT.
John 4:24 God is SPIRIT (LIFE) ....
God Bless ALL.
What does this mean ?
Can this be te justification for Sunday fellowship ?
The faith of Christ.
Galatians 2:15-16.
We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,
Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by "THE FAITH "OF" 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.
Who's faith? CHRIST FAITH! We were lacking faith it had to be given to us! Ephesians 2:8-9.
Some have objected to this interpretation, saying that faith (pistis) is feminine, while that (touto) is neuter. That poses no problem, however, as long as it is understood that that does not refer precisely to the noun faith but to the act of believing. Further, this interpretation makes the best sense of the text, since if that refers to by grace you have been saved through faith (that is, to the whole statement), the adding of and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God would be redundant, because grace is defined as an unearned act of God. If salvation is of grace, it has to be an undeserved gift of God. Faith is presented as a gift from God in 2 Peter 1:1, Philippians 1:29, and Acts 3:16.
Boy is that humbling! We can't produce faith, there is nothing to boast on that either!
That is why some say you can lose your salvation, and no one is saved until the Judgement.
THEY'RE NOT SURE. "VOID OF CHRIST FAITH"
Just believing is his name don't cut it either.
John 2;23-24. "Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many "BELIEVED IN HIS NAME", when they saw the miracles which he did. But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men,
You have to believe in his work, through the Holyspirit. (FAITH OF CHRIST)
Romans 10:9. That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and SHALT BELIEVE IN THY HEART THAT GOD RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD, thou shalt be saved.
1 Corinthians 1:18.
See part 9.
James 2:14-26.
God bless.
Moreover brethren I declare unto you the Gospel, which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand. By which also ye are saved, IF ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have BELIEVED IN VAIN. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received. HOW that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures. And that he was buried and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures.
You noticed Paul said "I lie not" on the very first verse. Apostle Paul is the last Apostle chosen by our very own Jesus Christ, who revealed the most important thing we Gentiles need to do. And Jews can benefit if they would read between the lines. There is no other way folks. I know you will say you already know. I cannot emphasized you have to separate flesh from your spirit because we walk only in Spirit. We have work to do for whatever time is left. We are so blessed we have it relatively easy in our lifetime. King David knew it and Apostle Paul was spiritually jealous. Use it wisely. Details are in the book of Romans to Philemon. Read and execute what the will of God for you. Most especially, Love your spouse deeply and rejoice evermore. Agape to all.
Jesus says in John 15:1-2 "my Father is the husbandman." Vine dresser"
This emphasizes fruit barring is a work of the Holyspirirt, not of you.
Let's consider that for a moment, FRUIT IS NOT GIFTS AND IT'S NOT SERVING AND IT'S NOT BY COMMAND.
So, when we come across these scriptures John 13:34-35. Mattthew 7:20. 1 John 2:11. 1 John 4:20. these are the marks of a Christian and is the ONLY way they are identified! And if you cannot be Identified by this you have John 15:6 to deal with.
Your faithfulness, intelligence, commitment, being noble, teaching, serving is all good but you're not identified as a Christian by none of these and can be told I "NEVER" knew you! Matthew 7:22-23.
Let's be clear on the recipient of this love that validates our position.
We are to love everyone, but our validation is specifically towards the Brothern.
The passages in 1 John speaks expressly about HATING you Brother.
God is truth, God is light, and God is Love. We are to worship God in truth and in Spirit. When the truth is spoken it shines light on darkness, and those in darkness hates the light and they will hate you!
HUMILITY.
Another fruit with great virtue. Woks of the law couldn't bring this either. It brought pride!
Being connect to the genuine vine brings humility. Look at what the Lord tells the Pharisees in Matthew 21:33-44. Right away you see the contrast of the two vines. Israel was to be a vine, but they became a degenerate vine. Jeremiah 2:9.
Now, place your attention on vs 43. Therefore, say I unto you, the kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. (The Church) Peter calls the Church a Holy nation in 1 Peter 2:9.
Humility cast out pride doesn't it. We tend to want to place our spirituality on things we do, putting ourselves on display and pointing people towards us instead of Christ.
more to come.
Its Christ faith were saved by not ours!
See part 9.
Your contributions here certainly are appreciated on my part and I'm sure others who you go through detailed scriptural studies with. Sometimes it can be easy to forget with all this discussion that we are all going through diverse personal lives; and varying struggles. I felt like saying this as well; sometimes it seems we literally can't be KNOWN completely in this life. Whether it is our own physical limitations; responsibilities; family dynamics or social network we are sort of "hemmed in" in a way. It is therefore edifying to consider you as a sister in the Lord among all the throng that will stand by the throne room in (hopefully) short order. (Of course I won't miss my cell phone up there or my computer).
Rev. 21:4
Agape; Rich P
At this point; I don't know about you but this concept is absolutely terrifying when we consider that we are made from the dust.
When this occurs will be the final Great White Throne judgment of Rev. 20. That is when the wicked are judged; I am not a Post-Millennium person so I believe that those who are of the church now will have been in glorified bodies and clearly "not harmed by the second death" ( Rev. 2:11). This thought of the fate of the wicked I really can't bear to think about.
So; for now it certainly gives us more than ample incentive to preach the Word; in and out of season ( 2 Tim. 4:2). It gives us confidence knowing that all enemies of God in particular Satan who mess with us now are going to be judged. Through the Spirit we can love our enemies; while still realizing that it is not up to us to seal their fate; but to be a faithful witness so that we can receive a full reward ( Psalm 126:5-6). It also helps us to move past all those worldly desires that would threaten to undo us; and have a healthy fear of the Lord. Remember He chastises all He loves. ( Hebrews 12:6). In the meantime; the coming Tribulation and birth pangs are all part of the process to refine us as well as draw those who He has called for His own.
We all need each other as we see the Day draw near.
Agape; Rich P
Since Lucifer from his inception had musical skills inherent in his makeup; and undoubtably had a high position of authority and leadership in that realm; he was given for those who would seek for those who would seek worldly aspirations over God. The verse Matthew 6:5 shows those who "have their reward" in this life as a result of pride who no doubt are inspired by Satan's self made mindset in empty religious rituals.
Man has to acknowledge not just that they are sinners but they are following "their father the devil." ( John 8:44-45). We are all slaves to the god of this world ( 2 Cor. 4:4) prior to regeneration. The end times in Revelation merely bring to the visible realm and to the forefront what already has been happening to influence man since the fall.
Clearly the world governments; all religions apart from the true faith INCLUDING and especially those with false Christs are part of this godless kingdom.
.....I know that Peter speaks of the lord coming as a theif in the nite and this earth shall passaway with a fervent heat 2 nd peter 3 : 10 ..But i think that is just the heat of the H.G. His baptism of fire as our God is a consuming fire....With a loud noise is sound doctrine God does not need to destroy this earth...God needs to destroy satans Seat which is mans carnal minds...Which thinks evil 24/7...outa of the hearts of man proceeds all manner of evil... Rev 11: 18 God says he will destroy them that destroy the earth...So i don't think that this beautiful earth is ever going to be destoyed
.....Its only satan and mans old adamic nature that is in rank with satan... that is gonna be destroyed....IMO THE ONLY EARTH THAT IS GONNA BE DESTROYED IS MANS OLD ADAMIC NATURE....Scrip. says that man is of the earth earthly....1 st Cor. 15: 47...When Jesus said he came to bring fire on the Earth he meant H.G. FIRE...As our God is a consuming fire impling a spiritual fire...Jesus rebuked James and John when they wanted to call a literal fire down from heaven on the Samaritians...You don't know what manner of spirit you are of my disciples....The son of man came not to destroy mens lives but to save mens lives.
I pray for much love and comfort for you, and your family, as you gather together to remember your Mother on this day.
Much Love in Christ
The Jews and Gentiles that made up the early church's that were established by Paul were specifically taught to observe the Sabbath. The scriptures show that Paul personally kept the 7th Day Sabbath, and he taught the Gentiles to do the same.
Acts 13:42
"And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath."
Acts 13:44
"And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God."
Contrary to the popular but mistaken modern day doctrines, Paul did not put forth a different gospel or different approach to the law or grace from what Jesus Christ and the Apostles taught. If we study the bible and believe the scripture, we will see the Truth.
Paul always spoke highly of God's commandments and by his examples he showed a high commitment to the 7th Day Sabbath.
Happy Sabbath Day Everyone, and God Bless!
