In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise.

My beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath—He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city—If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body—By thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned—Set a watch, O L ORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
Christ … suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously—Consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
In their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.

Fear not: for I have redeemed thee.

Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more. For thy Maker is thine husband; the L ORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel—I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee—With the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.
Their Redeemer is strong; the L ORD of hosts is his name: he shall thoroughly plead their cause—My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.
Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

In every thing ye are enriched by him.

When we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly—He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
In him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power.
Abide 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. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing—To will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not—Unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you—Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom.

As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.

We … rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also—I am filled with comfort, I am exceeding joyful in all our tribulation—Believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory.
In a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality—Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ; and to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ.
Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?—God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work.

Death For Life

No Comments

[xyz-ihs snippet=”TestFlight”]

[xyz-ihs snippet=”asynchronous”]

https://fromtimetoeternity.com/?p=3774&preview=true

Greetings my friends, grace, and peace to you in the name of God our Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit. May God continue blessing you and strengthening and supplying you with all you need so that you may live before Him in a way that He may be glorified by your life. Lord bless me as I share your word with my brothers and sisters so that they will be equipped with more knowledge and understanding of the work you have prepared for us to do. Thank You, Lord, In Jesus name, Amen.

[xyz-ihs snippet=”auto-ads”]

My Friends, when it comes to the subject of death we become uncomfortable, it is a subject that we try to avoid. We sort of dance all around the subject and it is seldom that we really address it head-on. Death is our enemy, it is a disease that attacks all life on this planet, caused by one sin, No one is immune. This enemy looks for any and every opportunity to attack you. It does not discriminate. The end result of nearly every other disease is death. Many diseases can be treated and many can be cured, stopping death from overtaking a person using it as a vehicle. However, death is a monster that we released upon ourselves. Deaths’ goal is to separate us from God and to render our bodies incapable of sustaining our souls thereby it separates us from our bodies. It will not stop until it has accomplished what it set out to do. It does not matter who you are you will come face to face with this monster. Being separated from your body yes it is bad, but it is not the end of it all. It is being separated from God for all eternity with no possibility of reconciliation, that is eternal death, that is the end of it all, and much much more.  If you allow death to overtake you before you come to Jesus then it is over, you have no hope. The good news is, God in His great love and out of His infinite wisdom provided us with a cure, God is the only one who is able to provide a cure and this He has done.

[xyz-ihs snippet=”asynchronous”]

My Friends nothing can rightly be compared to the love and mercy God has extended to us. The only cure God has provided for the World is the death of His Son. John recorded what Jesus said “ God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son so that who so ever believe in Him shall have everlasting life ( John 3: 16). Jesus refers g to Himself said “ I Am the way, the truth, and the life, no one comes to my Father except by me (John 14: 6). Life is the only cure for death. Jesus is the life, not because He contains life but He is the very source thereof. You can only receive life by way of Jesus. He cannot be bypassed up. You can not go around Him. He is the source of all truth, when you come to Him you must come in truth, you must face the truth, the truth can not be hidden from Him. This is a very serious matter, your very life depends on Jesus in every way.

One day this great God saw an evil power that was going to manifest itself and wage an assault upon His creation. The assault would have a devastating effect upon creation in its entirety. However, this great God whose wisdom is infinite in nature made a plan that would restore His creation to its original form. In antiquity kings would send their sons on missions as ambassadors and missions of the war, to conquer other nations and come home triumphant bringing home the victory and spoils. This great God sent the greatest warrior, and General, the universe has ever and will ever have known. He has great power, greater power no one else possess. He has a great and powerful army, one that can deliver total destructions on the universe. This Great God did not hide the mission from His Son, His Son new that this mission would ultimately cost Him His life in the most shameful manner, before the entire universe to witness the shameful persecution and suffering and death. The great God’s Son accepted the mission out of love and for love’s sake. The Son accepted the mission because He loves His Father and always desire to please Him, He loves the creation, and He loves man, and was willing to give His life to save the human race He created. In this Great War for the soul of men. Even though this great General commands an army that is so vast and very powerful, they couldn’t assist Him in defending him from the assault, the vicious attack He would endure mentally and physically. The Son of God had the greatest challenge that any human being has ever had to overcome. The challenge was even though He could stop the assault against Himself at any time and destroy all who were involved. He humbled himself to the suffering and death to pay the penalty for the sin of the world. The only person whose life could pay the penalty for the sins of the world had to be one who is sinless and His life had to be worth all the lives that have ever lived and everyone who will ever live. In other words, the person who could save us had to be both a sinless man and the creator of the world, God Himself.

[xyz-ihs snippet=”auto-ads”]

Listen My Friends, the entire human race has the disease of death. We all struggle for life to live as long as we can, however, just as sure as we live, unless Christ returns first, we are all going to die. The good news is that God Has a antidote. The cure for our disease, the cure is in His Son, Jesus is victorious and triumphant conquering Sin and canceling out the punishment demanded by the written code. He conquered death, therefore God raised him from the dead. Everything Jesus ever told us God has proven to be true when He with great power raise Jesus Christ from the dead placing everything under His authority. It is time for you to receive the only cure for the disease of death which comes by believing in Jesus Christ and receiving eternal life. The only cure for death is life and that life is found in Jesus Christ. This is how you receive the cure, You must believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and He died on the cross in your place for your sins and that God raised Him from the dead. Based on that fact ask God to forgive you,  God will forgive you and trade your sins for His righteousness and give you the gift of eternal life.We receive eternal life for His death. He gave His Life so that we would not have to. Amen, thank you, Lord.

God Bless you

I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
Behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of—Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the L ORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

[xyz-ihs snippet=”auto-ads”]
Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world. At my first answer no man stood with me, but all men forsook me: I pray God that it may not be laid to their charge. Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me—When my father and my mother forsake me, then the L ORD will take me up.
Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world—I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore—I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you—My peace I give unto you.

Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty.

Revelation 4:8

Thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel. — Draw not nigh hither; put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground … I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God. — To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal? saith the Holy One. — I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour. I, even I, am the Lord; and beside me, there is no savior.

[xyz-ihs snippet=”asynchronous”]

As he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. — 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. — Ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. — Can two walk together, except they are agreed?

When It’s Over, It’s Over

Greetings My friends’ grace and peace to you in the name of God our Father, the Son and The Holy Spirit. I thank God for you my friends because God has given me this wonderful opportunity to reach out and encourage you just as I am encouraged by you. The work that is before us is of an urgent nature because it concerns eternity and life in Heaven or Hell. The reason it’s so important is there is a criterion that must be met before it is over, and you can only find it in Jesus Christ. We must use the word of God and our knowledge there of to tear down the wall  that obscures the understanding and prevents the lost from receiving salvation  because after you die its too late, Lord Please help me to express the urgency of salvation and encourage my brothers and Sister to stay the course and get the word out to as many people as possible, so that they will know time is running out and when it is over, it is over. Thank you Lord Amen.

[xyz-ihs snippet=”auto-ads”]

My friends remember we were once in the same frame of mind as those who don’t know Christ concerning their salvation. We could not see beyond that which we could not humanly understand. The truth is and has always been right in front of us and we could not comprehend it. We were eager to reject the truth and turn it into a lie, defying God who created us to serve and worship Him. Even after God warned us from the beginning Genesis 2:16-17 (NASB)
16 The LORD God commanded the man, saying, “From any tree of the garden you may eat freely;
17 but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat from it you will surely die.” The father of lies appeared and told Adam and Eve our parents that God was in effect lying. Genesis 3:4-5 (NASB)
4 The serpent said to the woman, “You surely will not die!
5 “For God knows that in the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” Since all people came from these two what ever decision they made, we made also because we were in them when they sinned and disobeyed God. Romans 5:12 (NASB)
12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned—
This explains how we got into this mess, we didn’t believe God. It’s not complicated, it’s simple to understand. The problem is we are willing to accept the lie instead of the truth, in an effort to satisfy our own desires to be independent of God and be Gods ourselves. In other words, we want to do our own thing, and not have to answer to anyone but ourselves. God is the only independent being in existence. He is not dependent on anyone outside of Himself for anything. Everyone and everything that exist is dependent upon God for their very existence.

[xyz-ihs snippet=”asynchronous”]

God is Holy, He is spiritually pure, there is no darkness in Him at all. He must destroy sin, God will destroy sin and all those who live according to its’ ways. God’s Holiness demands that He destroy sin. God developed a plan before He created the world to save us from the destruction and retribution that He must take to eradicate sin from this world and at the same time save the creatures He created. God loves us so much, that He gave the life of His Son to pay the penalty of our Sin. God won’t force you to be saved, evern though He is fully capable of doing so. God wants you to want to be saved. God wants you to love Him of your own free will. I remember an old saying that It’s not over until it is over. This brings us full circle, in John 3:16 Jesus said God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son so that whoever believes in Him shall have everlasting life. This is a very serious matter, you have to make a decision. What you decide is going to determine where you are going to spend eternity, in Heaven or Hell. There is no middle ground. There is no purgatory, there is no sense in anyone praying for you once you are dead.

[xyz-ihs snippet=”auto-ads”]

Be of good cheer !!!, We serve a wonderfully great and merciful God, whose love is infinite, His mercy endures forever. He has issued out His grace in abundance. He is all powerful, no one can take you out of His hands, He will not abandon you. His generosity is unmatched by anyone. His kindness is unmatched and His wrath you don’t want to experience. No one knows the time when the end of our lives will come, if you think that you will be able to believe just before your time is up you are playing a serious game of chance with your life, there is no reason other than the grace of God that the end cannot come upon you now. Unless Jesus returns to us we will go to Him, or to immediate suffering. It is urgent that you decide now, once it is over it will be too late. When it’s over, it’s over, but God out of His great love, and mercy wants to give salvation to you right now. Here is the key to open the gift John 5:24 (NASB)
24 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life. This is God’s word, do you believe God ? or do you believe the lie that echos through the centuries from the father of lies, saying if your good deeds out way your bad deeds God who is a just God will have to give you eternal life. Don’t believe that nonsense. Stop, Look, Listen. There is only one name given under Heaven whereby men shall be saved, that name is Jesus. Amen !!! Thank You Lord.
