God bless our meditations.
Peter got it right when he said the Christ , son of the living God . Jesus said he was taught by God and blessed for knowing this .
Jesus never said IAM GOD , but that I came from GOD , so he is Gods son .
Being one with God is a relationship . We also can have this relationship, read John 17 .
Ezekiel 46:16-18
We are the sons (firstborn) they are the servants to the firstborn; Christ being THE HEAD.
The Church is not the building wherein the Church meets, but rather, the redeemed saints are the Church whom CHRIST has quickened ( Eph. 2:1) from their state of "dead in trespasses and sins" ( Eph. 2:5) to actively preach and spread the Gospel of Salvation.
The Greek New Testament records "ekklesia" 118 times. Of those occurrences, it translates into the English noun "church" 115 times, all identifying GOD's people assembled as a church body.
In Ephesians 2:22, Paul described the Church as "an habitation of GOD" wherein GOD "dwells" with HIS people (cp. Rom. 8:9; 2Cor. 6:16; Eph. 3:17; 1Jn. 4:13). Rather than a passive place, a habitation is a building wherein much activity takes place. Living people actively live there, communicating with one another, and intimately interrelating within the family and carrying on with their private lives.
The "Church" is a living, breathing, animate organism because it is the "habitation" of "The Living GOD".
This same scenario occurs within "the Church of The Living GOD" ( 1Tim. 3:15), which is GOD's habitation. The Church does not exist passively, but GOD performs and accomplishes HIS purposes in the world through the Church as HIS base of operations.
The Greek New Testament records "ekklesia" 118 times. Of those occurrences, it translates into the English noun "church" 115 times, all identifying GOD's people assembled as a church body.
Isaiah 55:11 So shall MY WORD BE that goeth forth out of MY MOUTH, IT SHALL NOT RETURN UNTO ME VOID, but it shall accomplish that which I PLEASE, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I SENT IT.
Most (in the age we are in now) want believe (ALL GOD'S WORDS only some of God's words) because GOD'S WORD SAYS THEY WANT. All eyes and ears have been closed, only those he is calling NOW will hear and see.
Isaiah 6:9-13 (vs 12) And the Lord have removed man (creature or creation) far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.
(vs 13) But yet in it (the land) shall be a tenth (the tithe to God, the ROYAL PRIESTHOOD) and it shall return (in the ages to come) and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance (CHRIST IN YOU, THE HOLY SEED) IS IN THEM, when they (THE HOLY SEED) cast their leaves: so the HOLY SEED shall be the substance thereof.
Revelation 22:2 .... for the healing of the nations
Ezekiel 47:6-8
In the age we are in, yes there is saved and unsaved (vessels of honour and vessels of dishonour) THE WORKS OF GOD for his pleasure. Since they were made vessels of dishonour for HIS WORKS then God has provided a way for them to enter into the kingdom in the coming ages.
There is hundreds of scriptures that says ALL CREATURES OR CREATION will worship God. They can't worship God without being lead into the light; this is what the SONS OF GOD (Christ and HIS royal priesthood are doing to do.
We are not saved to go to heaven; we are saved to rule God's KINGDOM ON EARTH with HIM. The shadow is in the old; as Moses had judges under him we will be judges under Christ. What was to be fulfilled by the first Israel in driving out all worshippers of other gods will be fulfilled by the SONS OF GOD (true Israel).
Richard, this truth does't come easily because we have been blinded by the wisdom of this world.
I'm sure we will continue this topic for a while.
for a miracle in your name Jesus.
Always go back to the cross. therein lies our victory. Knowing Jesus died specifically and personally for you to overcome any sin of idolatry...he knew before you were born you would have problem with this. He shed His blood but then rose triumphant to free us from any strongholds of enemy and self indulgence. God bless you with great victory that is already won for you. no striving, just faith in Him...... You have a beautiful name. one of the only 2 of all Israel to went into the promise land, knowing the giants were promised defeat.
V 54 ,55
Jesus gives credit to his father as being His source , makes perfect sense that Jesus is Gods son .
Many other examples in the Bible Jesus gives God the credit for who he is and where he came from . Jesus is the Son of God .
If I may just ask you a question or two. To say "most will not believe this" I'm not sure what you mean. Are you implicating that there is no such thing as "saved and unsaved"? Are you stating all are to be saved no matter what??
Of coarse I believe God uses all, just and unjust, to fulfill His Will as He is always in control. Though I don't see all being saved which would basically make the whole Holy Bible of no avail. Also it would mean actually, like some people push today, that there is no "right or wrong". Which is of the devil or what he would want people to believe.
Also with the word "creature" which is the Greek word "ktisis" which basically means "the original formation or created being". To me this means our human(physical) body and as children of God, who are with the Lord, wait earnestly for our glorified bodies. Are you taking the word "creature" to mean like a "devil" or evil person against God? Maybe mixing them up?
It would be nice to think everybody is going to be saved and go to Heaven. Though that is not what the Bible teaches. As in 1 John 3:7-10 that all are not children of God. Also many teachings of Jesus Christ. As God makes some vessels to show his wrath unto destruction and some to show the riches of His glory and mercy to be glorified. All for His Will.
In the end the Lord is the Judge not me. Please correct me if anything I said was off and I went too far with my post. Thank you Earl.
God Bless.
Deuteronomy 5: 10 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
how to understand "third and fourth generation" and "thousands of them"?
does "them" imply generations, children, or something else?
You ask why Jacob is bad mouthed so much in the church (most have worldly wisdom)?
Why is Judas bad mouthed so much in the church? Was not he one of the chosen? Did he not perform the job he was chosen for, just as Pharaoh, also Esau and Jacob as well as us today; we being used also by God to do HIS WORKS.
Romans 9
You would not have a saviour if you didn't have a Judas. Do you not think Our LORD is not doing these same kind of WORKS today? In all of history God uses man to do HIS WORKS, just and unjust.
Isaiah 10
But God has already provided for their return to the kingdom.
Romans 8:19-21 For the earnest EXPECTATION of the CREATURE WAITETH for the MANIFESTATION OF THE SONS OF GOD.
(vs 20) For the creature was made SUBJECT TO VANITY, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
(vs 21) BECAUSE THE CREATURE ITSELF ALSO SHALL BE DELIVERED from the bondage of corruption (death) UNTO THE LIBERTY OF THE CHILDREN OF GOD.
Obadiah 1:21 And saviours shall come upon Mt. Zion to judge the Mt. of Esau, and the kingdom shall be the Lords.
MOST WILL NOT BELIEVE THIS.
I'm a christian and I took the vaccine.
You may be judging others wrongly...
Matthew 7:3 Context
1Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 3And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
God Bless
here in John chapter 8 verse 58 . Jesus our lord and savior declared who he truly is God the great I am .
Even to the prophet Isaiah in chapter 9 verse 6 declared That Jesus is the mighty God and the everlasting Father .
