“Feelings: Help or Hindrance – 301”
…Blog.
*** (Isaiah 28:13) But the Word of the LORD was unto them
precept upon precept; precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line;
here a little, and there a
little; that they might go; and fall backward [backslide]; and be broken; and
snared; and taken.
*** (Luke
16:13) No servant can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one and
love the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. You
cannot serve God and mammon. [Feelings
or Faith]
*** (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 the LORD Jehovah [The Holy Word of GOD].
*** (Hebrews
10:38-39) Now, "the Just shall live by faith. But if he draws back; My
soul shall have no pleasure in him."
(Heb 10:39) But we are Not of those
withdrawing to destruction; but of those who believe to the preserving of the
soul.
Did ‘You’
ever wonder WHY… ‘You’ purchase “Things”…? Probably, ‘You’ saw an
‘advertisement’ about: ‘IT’. You did ‘Not’ know ‘You’ needed it: until ‘You’
saw their: “Advertisement!” Did the product manufacturer use… “Feelings”… to
lure ‘You’ into that purchase? For the past few years, Makeup manufactures have
been marketing an… “Age Defying Cream!” What ‘Scientific Discovery’ or ‘Magic’…
can “Make or Suspend: NATURE”…? And the second law of Thermodynamics [Entropy]…?
None, for we each continue to Age! This “Age Defying Cream” is simply a
marketing gimmick for… “Vanity!” Yes, ‘You’ were once young; but “Nothing”… can
stop or suspend the aging process. It is all part of the ‘Curse’ on mankind;
for the disobedience of ‘Adam & Eve’. God said, “You shall ‘Not’ Eat”…! But
Satan said to Eve… Genesis 3:1 “… has God [Really] Said: You shall ‘Not’ Eat”…?
Did he appeal to her “Intellect” or to her “Feelings”…? How can it be “Wrong”…
‘When it “FEELS” so Right’…? Simply because… “God Said SO”…!
*** (Genesis 3:5-6) for God knows that in the day you eat
of it, then your eyes shall be opened, and you shall be as God, knowing good
and evil.
(Gen 3:6) And
when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasing to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make wise, she took of its fruit, and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and
he ate.
*** (1Jn 2:15-16-17) Do not love the world, nor the things in
the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him,
(1Jn 2:16) because –> All that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust
of the eyes, and the pride of life;
is ‘Not’ of the Father; but is of the world.
(1Jn 2:17)
And the world passes away, and the lust of it, but he who does the will [Word] of
God abides forever.
*** (Ecclesiastes 1:2) Vanity of vanities, says the preacher;
vanity of vanities! All is vanity.
*** (Proverbs 16:31) The gray
head is a crown of glory; if it is found in the way of
righteousness. [Age Wrinkles Also!]
*** (Romans 7:7) What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Let it not be said!
But I did not know sin except through the law. For also I did not know lust –> except the law said, You shall not
Covet.

Life is ‘Not’ made up of two or three
‘Big Decisions!” It is
made up of those millions of small ones. “Each & Every” day ‘You’ make
decisions based on “Fact or Feelings”…! The electric bill needs to be paid… but
‘You’ want to go out to eat at that “Particular ‘Special’ Restaurant”. Do ‘You’
base that decision on “Feelings”…? Or on those ‘Responsibilities of Life’…?
Depending on your level of maturation [Adult Maturity]… ‘You’ will make that
decision… regardless of ‘Feelings’. Why is there such a Housing Crisis here in
America? Adults purchased “Extravagant Houses”… which they could “Not afford to
Pay” for… with ‘Borrowed Monies’… which they could “Not Possible Re–Pay” for…!
Those ‘Wrong & Foolish’ decisions were made by… “Feelings!” The same can be
said about “Credit Card Debt”…! And some of these “Foolish People”… say that
they belong to Christ Jesus…! Ask yourself… “Do they ‘Really’ or: NOT”…? The
can hardly sleep at night, worrying about the results of those “Foolish
Decisions” based on… “Feelings!”

‘Cost’ of Discipleship – 101”…Blog.
*** (Proverbs
6:6) Go to the ant, sluggard; consider her ways and be wise;
(Pro 6:7) who, having no guide, overseer, or ruler,
(Pro 6:8) provides her food in the summer and gathers her food in the harvest.
*** (James 1:22) Keep on being Doers of the Word; and
“NOT” merely hearers who “Deceive” themselves.
*** (Luke 6:46) And why do ‘you’ call Me [Jesus] = Lord,
= Lord; and do ‘Not’ do - what I [Jesus] say?
***
(1Corinthians 9:27) No, I keep on beating my body and making it my
slave so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not somehow be
disqualified.
*** (Proverbs
29:25) The fear of man brings a snare; but whoever puts his trust in Jehovah the
Lord; shall be safe.

Service – 101” …Blog.

*** (Romans
12:1-to-4) I therefore urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercies, to offer
your bodies as living sacrifices that are holy and pleasing to God, for this is
the reasonable way for you to worship.
(Rom 12:2) Do not be conformed to this world, but continually be
transformed by the renewing of your minds so that you may be able to determine
what God's will is -> what is proper, pleasing, and perfect.
(Rom 12:3) For by the grace given to me I ask every one of you not to
think of yourself more highly than you should think, rather to think of
yourself with sober judgment on the measure of faith that God has assigned each
of you.
(Rom 12:4) For we have many parts in one body, but these parts do not
all have the same function [office].
Do ‘You’ make decisions based on “Feelings”… before ‘You’ have checked: God’s Holy Word…? Do ‘You’ live your life
based on His Holy Word… or on your: “Feelings”…? Discipleship with Christ
Jesus… must only be based on His Holy Word. Why else are so very many Churches
here in America… “Spiritually Cold & Spiritually Dead?” Long ago they
‘Departed’ from the Truth of His Holy Word. They have “Church Debt”… which they
cannot afford to pay. So they have watered down the Gospel message. They have
replaced “Bible Teaching & Preaching” with… “Entertainment”…! Say it isn’t
“SO”…? Do ‘You’ enjoy the music at your Church…? Did ‘You’ know that… “No Where:
in the Bible”… were Drums: ever used in the “True Worship of GOD”…? Surely
‘You’ heard the song… “Our God is an Awesome God”… sung in Church? Did ‘You’
know… “That SONG is a LIE: Based on Feelings”…? Sorry about your god
[small-g]…! The God of the Bible… is the “ONLY GOD”…! To be Awesome… needs a
“Comparison to Something! There is “NO ONE”… who can be Compared to GOD, the
God of the Bible…! That song affects your.. “Feelings”… with Lies! Say it isn’t SO…? God’s Holy Word says…
*** (Isaiah 44:6) So says Jehovah, the King of Israel, and
His redeemer Jehovah of Hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and besides
Me there is = “NO” = God.
*** (Isaiah
45:18) For so says the LORD Jehovah the Creator of the heavens, He is God, forming the earth and making
it; He makes it stand, not creating it empty, but forming it to be inhabited. I am Jehovah, and there
is –> NO Other.
*** (Isaiah
46:9) Remember former things from forever; for I am God; and NO other –>
is God; even NONE –> like
Me,
*** (Jeremiah
10:7) Who would not fear You, O King of nations? For fear belongs to You,
because among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms; there
is NONE –> like You.
*** (Proverbs 30:4) Who has gone
up to Heaven and has come down?
Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has bound the waters in His garments? Who has established all
the ends of the earth? What is
His name, and what is His Son's
name? Surely you know.

*** (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”.

How easy & comfortable it is to our “Flesh”… to rely on “Feelings!” At one time… I
had “Feelings”… that I should be “Driving a Lamborghini”…! I asked Santa
Clause… but he did ‘Not’ bring one! [Joke!] Such is the absurdity of ‘Feelings’…which
is nothing but “Vanity!” Most “Feelings” are based on: “Vanity!”…! Those “Truly
Born Again” by the Holy Spirit of God… are continually “Reading & Studying
& Obeying”… His Holy Word! Being a disciple of Christ Jesus… brings with it
a different life style and outlook of those… “Passing Pleasures of this Life!”
Our focus on Life is towards the Glory of God… and the Work for Christ Jesus…
of presenting Him to all mankind. [Luke 24:44-to-48] Are ‘You’ His Child…? Is
He your “Daddy”…?

*** (2Corinthains
10:12) We would not dare put
ourselves in the same class with or compare ourselves to those who recommend
themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves
to themselves; they show how foolish
they are.
*** (John
3:30) He [Jesus] must increase; but I must decrease.
*** (John
3:30) He [Jesus] must increase in importance; while I must decrease in
importance.
*** (Matthew 13:12) For whoever has, to him shall be given;
and he shall have more abundance. But whoever does not have; from him shall be
taken away; even that which he has.

*** (2Corinthains 13:5) examine yourselves; whether you are in
the faith; prove your own selves. Do you not know your own selves; that Jesus
Christ is in you [Romans 8:9]; unless you are reprobates?
*** (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?
