I also concur with what Rick has presented. He makes a great point about the "cares of this world" affecting our peace. This comes from the word MERIMNA which is the only weapon Satan uses against us. The words care, anxiety, worry, and stress all come from this word. Once we surrender our lives to Christ, the next step is to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Satan knows he has lost us forever to Christ. He knows he can't take us away, so what does he do? He chases us, pursues us (DIOKO) in order to tire us out and make us want to give up. He keeps our minds occupied and distracted with the cares of this life in order to stunt our growth process in Christ Jesus. He can't take our salvation from us, but he can hinder our growth process!
"Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him." -- James 5:14-15
This is the sin that Adam succumb to then man was separated from God which eventually brought death. Jesus Christ paid in full that separation and we became sons and daughters by rebirth spiritually and been made righteous by what he paid for with His broken body and shed blood.
Read Romans 5-9 it explains a lot the word of God speaks louder than any man.
When he was raised from the dead and sat down at Gods right hand our redemption was complete now all we need to do
is walk in the believing faith of everything paid for by His Sacrifice.
That's why pilate after they beat him and before the crucifixion said behold your king, because he was pulverised. Can you imagine Pilate when Jesus said to Pilate John 19:11 you not have this power unless it was given thee from above, and he was standing next to a bloody mess! Everything he went through was done to deliver us from the power of the adversary, we are healed 1 Peter 2:23+24 after the fact by His stripes we have been healed.
By His shed blood all our sins broken fellowship is forgiven when we Repent and Confess Romans 10:9+10 and begin to walk by faith in him. Believe it or not He literally died not from the wounds but of a broken heart in John 19:34 when they pierced His side water and blood came out. The movie passion of the Christ is a good portrayal of what they did and what he looked like, I believe it was worse than even that and yet this man never sinned!
We will never fully comprehend or appreciate what he went through and I can't think about it too long without going to tears, a totally innocent man did this for us who do not deserve any of what we have been delivered from
for all eternity. AMEN!
Jesus is the Son OF God not God that's impossible for any man to be GOD .
Of God yes , came from God born of God . Yes The SON OF GOD . This was Gods own testimony at Jesus baptism.
THRONES
Palms 122 .5. Thrones
Revelation 20.4
And I saw THRONES , and they that say upon them , and judgement was given unto them
1 The LORD "Knows them that are His" 2 Timothy 2:19, And, The LORD "Has ALWAYS Known them that are His" Ephesians 1:4
2 The LORD "Has NEVER Known" them that "Are NOT His" Matthew 7:21-23
3 Therefore, it is BIBLICALLY 'Impossible' for "one to be saved, AND THEN to be lost" Correct?
For More Encouragement And Edification, here is my 2-Part "study" (scroll down the page some) On 2 Corinthians 1:9-10 Three Tenses Of God's ETERNAL Salvation Link
1 Corinthians 3:6 I have planted, Apollos watered, but God gives the increase.
Thanks for the encouragement. I meant that I was finished contributing the conversation on the topic of that thread.
I plan to remain on this site and contribute to conversations as I feel led by the Spirit to engage in. I am not at all bothered by any one being tenacious in their positions on a topic. I am that way, as well. But I do love to hear peoples ideas. It helps a believer grow and strengthens us.
This forum has the difficulty of us really not knowing each other personally, so right and wrong assumptions can be made about someone. That is why I heed I Scripture concerning looking out for the best interests of others. I also wish to think the best of others and believe that, like myself, they have good intentions.
I am tough in the sense that I don't let what people say bother me too much. I just pray for God to show me if what they say about me might be true so I can pray for a change in me. On the other hand, I will speak to what I perceive as unfair or unkind words or actions. We are called to do this in the Word, but are to do so in love.
Thanks for your tender care towards me.
That is a Great question.!!
It would be great togetfeed back.
", when God said : let us make man in our image , was He just talking about Adam , the first Adam , the one from the dust who didn't have a belly button or , was He talking about Jesus , the second Adam ? Or was He talking about us , redeemed and ressurected through Christ our Saviour ? Is this : making man in our image , an on going process that will only be completed when Christ turns the Kingdom over to his Father and God is All in All ? Would like to hear what you think please ."
God bless.
Please help me with Isaiah-53:5 "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed." I am confused as to what we are healed from.-Please point me to Scripture.
Also please help me with Isaiah-1:18 "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." What sins are we forgiven? Your help would be much appreciated. Your Brother in Christ.
Revelation 3:21 To him that overcometh, I will grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
Isaiah 66:1 Thus saith the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool:
Revelation 21:1 And I saw a NEW HEAVEN..... the NEW dwelling place and the NEW throne of God..CHRIST IN YOU
Isaiah 66:1 ........where is the THE HOUSE ye built unto me
Hebrews 3:6 ...But Christ as a son over his own house, whose HOUSE WE ARE
Isaiah 66:1 .......and where is my place of REST.....The Father and His Son Jesus Christ and YOU are at REST TOGETHER in the NEW heaven, the NEW temple made without hands, the NEW place of worship ( John 4:19-22).
Cease from your works as God has ceased from his works, the WORKS were FINISHED at the cross.
The only LABOUR left is to bring man TO KNOWLEDGE
Isaiah 5:13 Therefore my people go into captivity, because they have no KNOWLEDGE: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitudes dried up with thirst.
If we don't endeavor to build Gods Word and walk by the spirit the cares of this world will effect our peace, and let the peace of God rule this means[to be president or dominate all decisions] to which ye are called and be thankful[ in everything]. The more we renew our minds to scripture the more we let Gods Word dominate our thoughts we will develop the fruits of the spirit, love joy [peace] longsuffering meekness temperance against such is no law. This is not automatic its happens over time. Prayerfully this helps.
Does this mean a man & a women that are both widowed and in there 70's & 80's that wish to have a sexual relationship would be called adulteress unless they get married?
Colossians 3:15 starts out by saying "And let the peace of God rule in your hearts." Please notice that all this comes under "put on the new life." If you're saved and Christ is in you, it's a matter of deciding what way you're going to go. We're to let the peace of God rule in our hearts.
Romans 5:1 says that after having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. That's positional. We always have peace with God, but we don't always experience the peace of God. We are no longer His enemy. We are at peace with Him.
But we're told to let the peace of God rule in our hearts, to the which also you are called in one body;
The word peace, EIRENE in Greek means to be united. The peace of Christ, and the peace of God, it just means to be at one with Him. When I'm under the influence of God's Spirit, the unity that's already existing flows from one believer to the other in one body.
The next command: and be ye thankful. That's not a human practice. That also is a ministry of God's Spirit. It's part of the new life. Just put it on!
I consider at times this walk to be very hard at times mentally and emotionally because when someone you love, especially family does things contrary to Gods Word which is life,and we are aware because of whats written the outcome we still to the best of our ability stay with scripture. True love[agapeo is not easy] especially in our society and world the way it has become.
Things to remember James 5:16 second Half The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth
much, also if you can talk to your son, share with him what God can do not all the things he is doing wrong, we build up not tear down. Remember the love of God thinketh no evil, that still I have a hard time wrapping around my head.
Don't listen to people who say no one can help Him that's a Lie from our enemy, There is no pit so deep that He Jesus Christ is not Deeper still. Focus on what you can do for Him not what you can't. Last my wife and I have six kids I'm thankful that 2 are Born again and doing well and two are sitting on the fence so to speak and two haven't made up there minds. There all loved equally. Just thought I'd share some heart. P. S. This has always blessed me Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus look Full In His Wonderful Face And The Things Of Earth Will Grow Strangely Dim In The Light Of His Glory And Grace. Walking with God is More Inspiration than Perspiration. God Bless
Isaiah 66:1
"Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?"
The throne of God should not be thought of as a literal throne. God the Father is nonphysical. So not having a physical body, God does not " virtually sit." When we envision a divine throne it is akin to biblical allusions to God's "hand" or "mouth" or "eyes"-they are nonmaterial.
Hope this helps to put "throne" in perspective.
God Bless
