“That ‘You’ may Prosper – 101” …Blog.
*** (3Jn
1:2) Beloved, in regard to all things I pray that you prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers.
*** (Joshua 8:34) And afterward he
read all the words of the Law; the Blessings and -> Cursing’s <- ;
according to ‘All’ -> that is written in the book of the Law.
*** (Philippians 3:7-to-10) But whatever things were gain to me,
those I counted loss for Christ.
(Philip 3:8) But
no, rather, I also count all things to be loss for the excellency of the
knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have suffered the loss of
all things, and count them to be
dung, so that I may win Christ
(Philip 3:9)
and be found in Him; not having my own righteousness, which is of the Law, but
through the faith of Christ,
the righteousness of God by faith,
(Philip 3:10)
that I may know Him: –> and the [Holy
Spirit] power of His resurrection: –>
and the fellowship of His “SUFFERINGS” –>
being made conformable to His death; [Romans 12:1-2-3]
*** (Luke 9:23) And He [Jesus] said to all, If anyone
desires to come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and
follow Me.
(Luke 9:24)
For whoever will save his life shall lose it, but whoever will lose his life
for My sake, he shall save it.
(Luke 9:25)
For what is a man profited if he gains the whole world and loses himself, or is
cast away?
(Luke 9:26) For
whoever shall be ashamed of Me and of My Words, the Son of Man shall be ashamed
of him when He shall come in His own and in
His Father's glory, and that of the holy angels. [John 12:48]
Did ‘You’ see the “Sandwich”… in the above Bible verses? Do ‘You’… “Pick
& Choose”… those Positive Bible Verses… and then “Leave OUT the Negative
ones”…? Or do ‘You’ take the entire Bible in its proper context…? Many of the
American NT Christians… falsely claim… those promises given ‘exclusively’ to
Israel! They then apply them to ‘themselves’
and then wonder why: God is holding back? Yes, in my pilgrimage with Christ… I
have “YET” to see anyone “Claim”… “1Thessalonians 3:4 –> For truly when we were with you, we told you before –> that we were going to “Suffer
Affliction”; as it also happened as you well know!” Many times, NT Christians
have claimed… “3Jn 1:2 Prosperity & Health”…! What is wrong with this
thinking…? Please re-read those Bible verses in this Blog. Do ‘You’ take Bible
verses in the ‘totality of context’ or do ‘You’… “Pick & Choose” –> Only
the “Prospers” ones…?
*** (2Corinthians 4:7) But we have this Treasure [Romans 8:9] in
earthen [our human bodies] vessels; that the ‘Excellency’ of the [His Holy
Spirit] Power; may be of God; and –> ‘NOT’ of us.
*** (Jeremiah
45:5) And do you seek great things for yourself? Do not seek them; for behold, I will bring evil
on all flesh, says the LORD Jehovah. But I will give your life to you as a
prize, in all places where you go.
*** (Isaiah 6:8) And I heard the voice of the Lord,
saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then I said: –> Here am I: –> send me!

up your Cross: ‘Rejection’ – 101” …Blog.
…
*** (Matthew
10:34-to-38) Do not think that I [Jesus] have come to bring peace on earth. I did
not come to send peace, but a sword.
(Matt 10:35) For I have come to set a man against his father, and the
daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
(Matt 10:36) And a man's foes shall
be those of his own
household.
(Matt 10:37) He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy
of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.
(Matt 10:38) And he who does not take up his cross and follow Me is
not worthy of Me.
*** (Jeremiah
48:10) Cursed is he who does the work of Jehovah
the LORD deceitfully; and cursed is
he who keeps back his sword from blood.
Do ‘You’ claim “Biblical Healing” also… with the verse: “3Jn 1:2”…? And then “Leave
Out”… ‘Even as your soul prospers”…? How does your soul prosper…? No, I did not
ask You… if You knew Jesus or if You knew where a particular Bible verse was.
Knowing about Jesus & His Holy Word… is ‘Not’… “Knowing Him” –> “John
7:38-39!” Many NT Christians do not realize that a “Simple Mental Ascent”… to or
about Jesus is… “Not Salvation!” Nor is it believing what your Church or
Denomination believes! Do ‘You’ know… “John 7:38-39 & Isaiah 55:8-9”… by
heart and can ‘Quote’ them…? Where then does anyone find what God requires of
them…? Only in His Holy Word, “The Bible!” Those who have only ‘Religion’… do Not
want any of what God says in His Holy Word! Little do they realize that it is...
His Holy Word… that will judge all: on the Last Day…!
*** (Micah 6:8) He has shown
you; O man, what is good. And
what does the Lord require of you; but to do justice; and to love mercy; and to
walk humbly ‘with’ your God?
*** (John 12:48) He who ‘Rejects’ Me [Jesus]; and does ‘Not’
receive My Words; has One who judges him; the WORD -> that I have spoken;
the same shall ‘Judge’ him in the “Last Day”.
*** (Matthew
22:29) Jesus answered and said to them, You “ERR” –> ‘Not’ knowing the
Scriptures –> ‘Nor’ the power of
God.
*** (Luke
18:6-7-8) And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge says.
(Luke 18:7) And shall not God avenge His own elect who cry day and
night to Him, though He has been long-suffering over them?
(Luke 18:8) I [Jesus] say to you that He will avenge them speedily.
Yet when the Son of Man comes, shall He find [True Biblical] faith on the
earth?
*** (Jude 1:3-4) Having made all haste to write to you
about the common salvation; beloved, I had need to write to you; to exhort you to ‘Contend Earnestly’ for the [True Biblical] Faith; once
delivered to the saints.
(Jude 1:4)
For some people have slipped in; among you unnoticed. They were written about
long ago as being deserving of this condemnation; because they are ungodly. They turn the grace of our God into
uncontrollable lust and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
“Earnestly
‘Contending’ for the: ‘True Faith’ – 101”…Blog [1/5]
Do ‘You’ see how
easily… a Bible verse can be made to say: “Something it does ‘NOT’
Say!” That is how “False Teachers” so easily deceive the “Un–Knowing & Un–Learned!”
That is why Christ Jesus called them… “Blind Leaders of the BLIND!” Can ‘You’
just imagine “IF” God healed every Christian who asked for “IT”…? “None” would
Die and go to Heaven…! They would just be “Continually Healed!” This of course
would violate God’s Holy Word… “Hebrews 9:27 & Ecclesiastes 3:2”. So too,
many say, “Abraham was rich and we are to be Also!” Sorry… “No!” Please allow
me to ask ‘You’ “Did Solomon with all his wealth, further the kingdom of God: –> or build heathen temples for
his heathen wives in Israel”…? Of course he did the later; which caused Israel to
sin even more!
*** (Ecclesiastes 1:2) Vanity of
vanities, says the preacher; vanity of vanities! All is vanity.

Much is ‘Enough?’ – 101” …Blog.

*** (Matthew 15:14) Let them alone. They are blind leaders
of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
*** (Amos 8:11) Behold, the days come; says the Lord
Jehovah, that I will send a famine in the land; not a famine of bread nor a thirst for water; but of = hearing = the
Words of Jehovah [The Holy Word of GOD].
*** (Hebrews 9:27) And as it is appointed to men once to
die; but [immediately] after this the judgment, [Luke 16:22-23]
*** (Ecclesiastes 3:2) a time to be born, and a time to DIE; a
time to plant, and a time to pull up what is planted;
*** (Mark 7:6-7-8) He [Jesus] told them,
"Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites. As it is
written, 'These people honor me with their lips: –> but their hearts are far
from Me [God].
(Mark 7:7) Their worship of Me is empty: –> because they teach human rules as doctrines.'
(Mark 7:8) You ‘abandon’ the commandment of God: –> and hold to ‘human’ tradition."
“Why
does GOD allow: ‘False Teachers’? – 101” …Blog
Let me say first… God can do anything He wants! He can
make some rich and heal others! But that is the “Exception” rather than the ‘Rule!’
Many do not realize this Scriptural principle… “To whom much is given: –> will
much be required!” We are simply “Stewards” of what God has given to each of
us. We will “Receive or Lose: Rewards”… based on our faithfulness! All who are
Truly Born Again… “Need To: Know & Obey”… what the Holy Word of God
teaches! How can ‘You’ do that “IF”… ‘You’ do Not: “Read & Study”… His Holy
Word for yourself…? It is ‘Not’ how much of the Bible “You Know”… it is “How
Much”… ‘You’ PUT: into “Practice”…! When do ‘You’ want to start…? “Now?” How
about ‘Today’…? Remember, ‘You’ have a free will… and ‘You’ must “Choose!”
Choose ‘Today’… and “Not Tomorrow”…! Not to ‘Decide’… “Is: To Decide!”

*** (2Corinthains 4:16) That's why we are not discouraged. No,
even if our outer man is wearing out, our inner man is being renewed: day by
day. [John 15:1-2-3]
*** (Luke
12:48) But he not knowing, and doing things
worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For to whomever much is given, of him much shall be
required. And to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.
*** (James
3:1) My brothers, do not be many teachers, knowing that we shall receive
the greater condemnation.
*** (1Corinthains 11:30) That's why so many of you are Weak; and
Sick; and a considerable number are Dying.
