    Vagabond (2 of 2)

    As an overcomer he is the heir and the Parable of the Wicked Tenants refers to him. "This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance."(Matt.21:36) The earth abides forever because he is the heir. He has promised all those who put their trust in him their inheritance ."Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:/ Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:/ In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins."(Col.1:11-14)

    The Earth and the fulness thereof belongs to God. For this reason he said, "The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me."(Le.25:23)

    Thus we see two groups of people,- Partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light who are sojourners and pilgrims looking for a city that has foundations. On the other hand Cain the wicked one, a murderer as a vagabond cast out from the presence of God.. We see in our times parallel churches, and let believers take warning. "(He.12:2, 22-24)

    In the age of Internet we see dark web coexisting with the legal cyberspace. It is these Gospel of Christ is set against another Christ and another Gospel and these revel in controversies. They are dealing 'the other man's riches'. They have resisted good counsel from the Scripture as Cain did. They hold truth in unrighteousness. Jesus warns them, "Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof."(Matt.21:43)

    Vagabond (1 of 2)

    Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me." (v.14)

    A vagabond is one with no fixed address floating around like invasive species creating problems to the law and native citizenry. Cain realizes that he was one. God as the creator drives him out as he had sent his father from His presence. Even where his parents had reared with sweat of their labor he was too hot to handle. God gave him good counsel as to how he could manage his anger but no! he simply could not handle the burden of sin. Now he was a murderer and a slave to sin. Jesus was a son who learned his lessons well so when he came to the world he had understood the key to an overcoming life. He was the truth. He said with an emphasis, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin./ And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever." ( John 8:34-35)

    Jesus was the truth so he would in the likeness of men would say "The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head."(Matt,8:30) But does that make him a vagabond? "I am the Truth and he assured, "In my Father's house are many mansions." Jesus was well aware where he came from and where he was going to. He was the Word become flesh so he submitted himself to perfect the will of the Father.

    PART 2

    Article on Faith and Grace

    (b) Faith involves repentance (i.e., admitting, expressing true sorrow for and turning from our own sinful, God-defying way; Ac 17:30; 2Co 7:10) and a complete turning toward God in order to follow Christ. True Biblical faith always involves sincere humility and repentance (Ac 2:37-38; see Mt 3:2, note on repentance).

    (c) Faith includes obedience to Jesus Christ and his Word. Such obedience must become a way of life, inspired by our trust in Christ, by our gratitude to God and by the life-transforming work of the Holy Spirit ( Jn 3:3-6; 14:15, 21-24; Heb 5:8-9). It is an "obedience that comes from faith" (Ro 1:5). For this reason, faith and obedience go together. In fact, they cannot be separated when it comes to serving God and following Christ (cf. Ro 16:26). True saving faith is not possible without the commitment to sanctification (i.e., the ongoing process of spiritual purity, separation from evil, growth and preparation for God's purposes; see article on Sanctification).

    (d) Faith includes a passionate, personal devotion to Jesus Christ that expresses itself in complete and selfless trust, love, gratitude and loyalty. In a personal relationship with Christ, true faith (and its expression of devotion) cannot be separated from love; the two completely work together as though they were the threads of the same cloth. Both faith and love represent a personal act of surrender and self-sacrifice directed toward Christ (cf. Mt 22:37; Jn 21:15-17; Ac 8:37; Ro 6:17; Gal 2:20; Eph 6:6; 1Pe 1:8).

    Parenthesis

    While speaking of the unpardonable sin against the Holy Ghost it is as though coming from Trinity. (Matt.12:31-32). 'Therefore I say unto you' in v.31 is from the Son and the following verse is from the Father. This coming from the Holy Ghost would go against his own narrative mode. In the Gospel of John Jesus speaking about the Holy Ghost speaks thus," 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.( John 16:13). 'He shall not speak of himself'. For this reason it is implied that the Trinity is witnessing the unpardonable sin is accounted on anyone who disregards the warning.

    There is a time lapse, which is not because God is slow in hearing the prayers of a saint. The Holy Ghost the third office organizes the will of God according to the Word so the timing is perfect. In Daniel's case the angel of his Presence had to attend what changes in the light of his request. "The prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days, but Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I was left there with the kings of Persia," (Dan.10:13-ESV).This mode of parenthesis ought to inform the length breadth and depth of Power and Wisdom of God.

    The intent of the word wide web also throws light on the Law. "The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple."(Ps.19:7) Jesus obeyed the will of his Father and it was not only in big events like his death and resurrection but in obedience to the word. Marriage at Cana has this" "Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come."( John 2:4), and this, "Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway ready." ( John 7:6). "And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified."( John 12:23)

    PART 1

    Article on Faith and Grace

    Ro 5:21 "So that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."

    Spiritual salvation comes as a gift of God's grace (i.e., his undeserved favor, love, kindness, help and spiritual enablement), but it can only be received and become personally effective in individuals' lives by the response of faith. To understand the process of salvation, we must understand these two words. (For further consideration of the issue of spiritual salvation, see article on Biblical Words for Salvation.)

    Saving faith. Faith in Jesus Christ is the only condition or requirement for receiving God's free gift of spiritual salvation. Faith is not only a matter of what a person believes about Christ; it is also an active response from the heart of a person who truly desires to accept Christ as Savior (i.e., the Forgiver of his or her sins) and to follow him as Lord (i.e., the Leader of his or her life; cf. Mt 4:19; 16:24; Lk 9:23-25; Jn 10:4, 27; 12:26; Rev 14:4). This means that faith is more than intellectual acknowledgment that Jesus Christ is God's Son who died to pay the price for our sins. True Biblical faith-the kind that brings spiritual salvation-involves an active trust by which a person surrenders complete control of his or her life to Christ and commits to following his purposes. (1) The NT description and pattern of faith includes four main elements:

    (a) Faith involves firmly believing that Christ died for our sins and rose from the dead to bring us life, then trusting in him as our personal Lord and Savior (see Ro 1:17, note). It involves believing with all our hearts (Ro 6:17; Eph 6:6; Heb 10:22), surrendering our wills (i.e., our desires, choices, plans, purposes and motives) and devoting ourselves completely to Jesus Christ and his purposes as revealed in the Bible.

    KJV+, John 3:5: "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."

    Everyone is born of water it's your physical birth in OT it was tradition be baptized in water NT every time mothers water breaks child is born of water, but be born of spirit you have to make that decision to be born of spirit because we are in grace administration

    KJV+, Rom 10:9-13: "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. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

    "1:6 Being confident of this. Paul's confidence in the Philippians is based not only on God's good work in their lives and their church, but also on their passion and sacrifice for the cause of Christ (vv. 5, 7; 4:15-18). Because they have already proven to be faithful in supporting and partnering in the work of ministry, Paul was certain that God would continue to work in and through them. God is always faithful to ensure that his work will be effective in the lives of those who remain loyal to and dependent on him. However, his faithfulness can do nothing for those who resist his grace (i.e., unearned favor, love, help and spiritual enablement) and refuse his gift of salvation (see 2:13, note; 2Ti 2:13, note).

    Phil 2:13 God who works in you. God works by his Spirit within the lives of Christ's followers to produce in them both the desire and the power to do what is good and right and to fulfill his purposes for their lives (see article on Faith and Grace). However, God's work is not forced, and his grace (i.e., his undeserved favor, love and spiritual help) can be resisted. That is to say, we can reject God's help and guidance and go our own sinful and destructive way if we so choose. God's work within us (1:6; 1Th 5:24; 2Ti 4:18; Tit 3:5-7) is always dependent on our FAITHFULNESS and cooperation (vv. 12, 14-16).

    Phil 14 Do all things without murmurings and disputings:

    Phil 15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;

    Phil 16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain."

    That is to say, we can reject God's help and guidance and go our own sinful and destructive way if we so choose. God's work within us (1:6; 1Th 5:24; 2Ti 4:18; Tit 3:5-7) IS ALWAYS DEPENDENT ON OUR ON OUR FAITHFULNESS AND COOPERATION (vv. 12, 14-16).

  • ARodrigo - In Reply - 1 year ago
    Interesting story. I have one question and it is a BIG one. Having accepted that gift from that lady, have you accepted the free gift of Salvation? Did you call on the Lord to save you and accept his free gift of Salvation. If you have a Bible, then please read the following verses:

    Rom. 3:23, Rom. 5:8, Rom. 6:23, Rom. 10: 9, 10 and 13

    This is the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. His death, burial and resurrection. The Lord Jesus Christ died for you because He loved you unconditionally. John 3:16 and 17 says it all.

    Call on Him to save you from the fires of hell and write your name in the Lamb's book of life. I pray that you will be saved.

    Kangaroo Word (3 of 3)

    Second time we come across this expression is in the vision of Daniel where across the river of time the man clothed in linen gives a cryptic answer (Dan.12:7) Then in the vision of John we come across the left out church, 'she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent(Re.12:14). When we take together several other expressions each with reference to a period of time it is clear that the Spirit is using the three and a half year of the ministry of Jesus as the base line

    Similarly when we have two witnesses martyred we have variation of the same expression. "And the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months./ And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth(Re.11:2-3)". The church the body of Christ is also compared to a bride, New Jerusalem. Saints redeemed from the earth are tagged by time times and dividing of time as the beast is given power for the same duration. Thus key to unlock the expression is in the Son.

    In compressing the Salvation Plan of God a symbol referring to the Father Son relationship is carried over from its context in the natural world to the eternity where relationship is retained. God created "the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night (Ge.1:16)" Under divine Will the pair,- greater and lesser light are treated as one, to rule the day and night respectively. In the eternity there is no more night but the throne of God and of the Lamb explain the same relationship.(Re.22:1). The symbol is in terms of the glory. Instead of the greater and lesser light we have the throne..

    That is the best thing you could have done by deleting your FaceBook account. FB is a piece of Satan's vicious device that has ruined the entire world with gossip, slander, and corrupt devices. Instead put your Face in the Book which is the BIBLE and you will find God's sovereign will for your life.

    FB is full of deadly poison and was created for Satan's followers. Stick to your guns and never subscribe to this rotten social media channel and you will be better off.

    The Bible will give you Godly wisdom and direction for your life. Stay out of it is my recommendation. God Bless you.

    Kangaroo Words (2 of 3)

    In order to fix part of the divine Will in the narrative we have such expressions, 'In the fullness of times, in the beginning in the latter days. While we have time as intended by the Son which are already in the flux. "And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.(Re.9:15)". An hour a day a month or a year are as an expression for judgments that do not make a full end but warn man to 'Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord( Ac.3:19-NIV)'." "Whoever remains stiff-necked after many rebukes will suddenly be destroyed-without remedy

    (Pr.29:1-NIV)".

    Names serve as kangaroo words throwing up long shadows. Creation of Eve is an example. "And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living." (Ge.3:20). Adam assigning his wife the name, Eve, has led some scholars conclude it as an example of paronomasia. The Hebrew word hawwa is a play on the word meaning 'life'. Does God need play with words?

    The Spirit uses the role of Eve in relation to Adam who foreshadows Christ the head. His deep sleep anticipates his death and Eve expresses his body, the church. Adam in giving the name 'mother of all living' is on the basis 'I am the truth and the life.'

    "Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the Lord's thy God, the earth also, with all that therein is (De.10:4)".

    The expression 'the heaven and the heaven of heavens' is similar to 'time and times and the dividing of time.' Daniel the seer refers to the latter days. "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time(Dan.7:25).

    Kangaroo words (1 of 3)

    While explaining the fulness of God in his Son the Spirit splices his deity and humanity explains kangaroo words, end time events riding the specific events as well as persons doubling for the advent of the Son 'in the fulness of time. For instance the spirit of Christ and the indwelling Spirit after his Ascension are all pointing to the fulness of God.Consequently the Spirit loads words with spiritual shadows. God sent 'his only begotten Son' refers to the logos aspect of Jesus Christ.

    Whereas the sons of God who went into the daughters of men and corrupted the old world are rogue elements not being subject to the word.( Ge. 6:2). Ishamael and Isaac are both sons of Abraham but one is the son of promise. In order to distinguish the Word becoming flesh, from humanity of Jesus, Promise of the Word necessitate this narrative mode as we see in the matter of God tempting Abraham. Before Abraham could harm his son the angel of the Lord restrains hi Notice the usage of 'the only son' in this verse, "For now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me."(Ge.22:12b). Both examples are set in direct frame of reference to the Son of man. Isaac is the heir of promise while Ishmael is the son of the bondmaid.

    The Spirit incorporates the deity and humanity of the Son to delineate them in the larger context of the Father Son fellowship. Kangaroo words similarly set events within another. Thus Israel being led through the wilderness is an example. "Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.(1 Co.10:11-AKJV)" But what is the spiritual principle for the Kangaroo Words? Abiding in Christ like branches to the true Vine we are connected to the world of the Spirit. This 'being hid in Christ' we are in heavenly places. (Col.3:1-3)

    Well hello there.Thanks for your surprising email! I also had both eyes done about 3 weeks between the 2 of them! I heard before hand from others,the guy doing the surgery was very good! But I did pray and ask God to be there also for the first one!I didn't fully realize how bad my eyes had become because I could see very well which was about half normal. But when I got home and looked at the tv,it was like a brand new tv being very clear and much full of vibrant color instead of being paler!Each surgery took about 20 minutes,as soon as he put the new lense in place I could see the hanging surgery lamp very clearly,when before looking up from the table it was a dim grey lightish blob!I had it done by scalpel as I had heard not good things about laser surgery! I started with glasses since 14! Thanks for your prayers! It's very worth it,you'll be totally amazed by God's fingerprints on nature views. That's the first thing I started watching was nature shows. God bless you with lots of fruit in the harvest! Shalom.

    Inversion, Mode of

    Inversion is expressed as a narrative mode where two unequal entities are set on the basis of the Word. Thus blessing come from God to Man and not other way about. The Word is God.

    Whereas God the Son becoming man explains one aspect of the Sovereign will of God. Free will on the other hand gives man the choice: either or. In believing the Apostle of God he is adopted in the Son into the Fellowship of God with Man. Here we have the Word freeing man so may be lifted up by faith in the Son. The Word became flesh.

    "For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me ( John 6:38-NIV). "Motive force of Jesus was squarely set on the bedrock of the Father Son relationship.

    Consequently he humbled himself as man, "And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross./ Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name (Ph.2:8-9)." The Spirit has set this example of God the Son for our instruction in righteousness, "But many that are first shall be last; and the last first."( Mark 10:31)

    Denying the free will to man is a heresy because just as his Son freely chose to be the slain Lamb, -and before the worlds began, the same liberty is given man. This empowerment places man who reveals the same DNA of faith outside the earth time and space limitations. As it is the eternal Word that is the Law or Constitution of the kingdom of God, we understand the rationale behing the Law of Gradation.

    That is true somewhat although some nations are mentioned that are roughly geographically the same. Others were; as pointed out at that time anyway places where certain descendants went to which could explain Tarshish (some say Spain others America for the sons mentioned); there are some references to the land of tin being England and differing opinions as to Togarmesh; Meschesh and Tubal being Turkey or rough translations of cities in Russia (perhaps both). Other places are extrapolations such as the Kings of the East. Babylon could certainly be America although it seems it could be literally in the old territory with plans for the future if the Lord tarries in coming years seem to be headed for development of a city made for drones somewhere in Abu Dhabi I believe.

    Obviously there are certain peoples in tribes particularly in the Western Hemisphere that have gone extinct. Some have said that that issue with the Jamaicans for instance isn't such a mystery because they simply intermarried to the point that they are inextricably meshed with later peoples that took over. The languages certainly mixed things up so we have light skinned people in S. Italy and North Italy has dark skinned; we have languages like the Czeck and Slovak near each other that are completely different and of course even many more native American languages and cultures than we see in the "civilized world".

    Nonethelss in glory those who have died would surely make up some from every tribe; tongue and nation who are missing today as the Lord will bear fruit and His Word not be void. Therefore even those who haven't heard the Word through creation it would appear will have faith; at least from the time before Christ came to earth.
