“Assume – 101” …Blog.
***
(John 7:40-to-53) When they
heard these words, some in the crowd were saying, "This really is the
Prophet,"
(John 7:41)
while others were saying, "This is the Christ!" But some were
saying, "The Christ doesn't come from Galilee, does he?
(John 7:42) Doesn't the Scripture say that the Christ is from David's family and
from Bethlehem, the village where David lived?"
(John 7:43)
So there was a division in the crowd because of him.
(John 7:44)
Some of them were wanting to seize him, but no one laid hands on him.
(John 7:45)
Then the officers returned to the high priests and Pharisees, who said to them,
"Why didn't you bring him?"
(John 7:46)
The officers answered, "No man ever spoke like
that!"
(John 7:47)
Then the Pharisees replied to them, "You haven't been deceived, too, have
you?
(John 7:48)
None of the authorities or Pharisees has believed in Him, has he?
(John 7:49) But
this mob that does not know the law-they are accursed!"
(John 7:50) One
of their number, Nicodemus (the man who had previously gone to him), said to
them,
(John 7:51) "Surely our law does not condemn a
person without first
hearing from him and finding out what he is doing, does it?"
(John 7:52)
They answered him, "You aren't from Galilee, too, are you? Search and see that no prophet –> comes from Galilee."
(John 7:53)
Then each of them went to his own home.
Do You know about the Word, “Assume”…? Someone once
said, “When ONE does NOT know all the FACTS: and “ASSUMES”, they make an “Ass
[of] U + Me!”…! Often times Christians take Bible verses “Out of Context”
without ‘knowing & applying’ it: to Other Bible Verses on the same Topic!
These Jews in “John 7”… did the same thing, they ASSUMED! Did they ask Christ
Jesus where he was Really Born…? Sorry “NO!” They falsely ASSUMED that because
He grew up in ‘Galilee’: that was the place He was born. But we know that the
Scriptures say: Bethlehem! That is WHY… it is so ‘Very Important’ to “Always
Reference: the Holy Word of GOD!” Was there a Prophet who came out of Galilee…?
Yes, “Jonah” ministered from OT
Galilee…!
Why
do So Very MANY… take this Bible verse… OUT of CONTEXT…?

***
(Acts 17:11) And these
were more noble = than those of Thessalonica, = in that they received = the Word = with all readiness of mind = and = searched the Scriptures = “DAILY” = to see if those things were so [or Not].
*** (Mark
12:24) And Jesus said to
them, "Aren't you Mistaken because you don't know the
Scriptures or God's power?
*** (1Thessaloninans
5:21) Prove “ALL” things:
hold fast to the Good.

*** (John
8:3132-33) Then Jesus said to the Jews who believed on Him, If you continue in
My Word, you are My disciples indeed.
(John 8:32)
And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
(John 8:33)
They answered Him, We are Abraham's seed and were
never in bondage to anyone. How do you say, You will be made free?
Where the Jews in Bondage at any time…? They said that they ‘Never Were’ in
“John 8:33”, is that “True or False”…? See how easily they ‘Twisted their
History’, because they Hated Christ Jesus? That Passover celebration was the
freedom of “400 years of Slavery” in Egypt. They were in Fact in Bondage, after
Joseph died, being second to Pharaoh. [Exodus 1:8 & Acts 7:18]
Matter of fact, one may get an overview of Jewish History from “Acts
7:All!” What about the “70–year Babylon Captivity?” Were the Jews in bondage
there or not? [Jeremiah 25:11 & Daniel 9:2] Again
they were bent on ‘Falsely Negating’ the lineage of Christ Jesus. Just perhaps
this is a “Lesion for US’ to be sure and… “Thoroughly: Check the Scriptures”…!
*** (Romans
15:4) For everything that was written long ago was written for our
instruction, so that we might have hope through the endurance
and encouragement that the Scriptures give us.
*** (2Timothy
2:15) Do your best to present yourself to God as an approved worker who has
nothing to be ashamed of, handling the Word of Truth with
precision.
(2Tim 2:16) However, avoid pointless discussions. For people will
become more and more ungodly,
*** (2Timothy
3:14-to-17) But as for you, continue in what you have learned and found to be
true, because you know from Whom [John 14:16-17] you
learned it.
(2Tim 3:15) From infancy you have known the Holy
Scriptures that are able to give you the wisdom you need for salvation through
faith in Christ Jesus.
(2Tim 3:16) All Scripture is God-breathed
and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in
righteousness,
(2Tim 3:17) so that the man of God may be complete: and thoroughly
equipped for every good work.
*** (Hebrews 5:11-to-14) We have much to say about this, but it
is difficult to explain because you have become too lazy to understand.
(Heb 5:12) In
fact, though by now you should be teachers, you still need someone to teach you
the basic truths of God's word. You have become people who need milk instead of
solid food.
(Heb 5:13)
For everyone who lives on milk is still a baby and is inexperienced in the
message of righteousness.
(Heb 5:14)
But solid food is for mature people, whose minds are trained by practice to
distinguish good from evil.

*** (2Peter 3:15-16) And think of the long-suffering of our
Lord as salvation; as our beloved brother Paul also has written to you;
according to the wisdom given to him.
(2Pet 3:16)
as also in all his letters, = speaking in them of these things; = in which are
some things ‘hard’ to be understood, = which the ‘unlearned’ and ‘unstable’ =
“Pervert”; = as also they do the rest of the = “SCRIPTURES”; = to their own
destruction. [1Corinthains 16:22]
***
(John 21:21-to-25) When Peter
saw him, he said, "Lord, what about him?"
(John 21:22)
Jesus said to him, "If it is my will for him to
remain until I come, how does that concern you? You must keep
following me!"
(John 21:23) So the rumor spread among the brothers –> that this
disciple wasn't going to die. –> Yet
Jesus didn't say to him –> that he wasn't going to die, BUT: –> "If
it is my will for him to remain until I come, how does that concern
you?"
(John 21:24)
This is the disciple who is testifying to these things and has written them
down. We know that his testimony is true.
(John 21:25)
Of course, Jesus also did many other things, and I suppose that if every one of
them were written down the world couldn't contain the books that would be
written.
What about the Disciples of Christ Jesus… in the above
Bible verses? How easily they
ASSUMED, because they did NOT fully listen to what Christ Jesus PLAINLY told
them! And Yes, I too have “ASSUMED” in the past; but NOT anymore. Without the
“Holy Fear of God”, one can easily be led astray. When we realize that we are
Responsible for: “Each & Every WORD” that comes out of our mouths, then we
have another perspective! Plain & Simple: “When ONE does NOT know all the
FACTS: and “ASSUMES”, they make an “Ass [of] U + Me!”…!
*** (Ecclesiastes 12:13-14) Let
us hear the conclusion of the whole
matter. Fear God; and keep
His commandments. For this is
the whole duty of man.
(Eccl 12:14) For God shall bring Every work into judgment; with ‘every’ secret
thing; ‘whether’ it is Good; or
‘whether’ Evil.
*** (Proverbs 17:28) Even a fool, when he is silent, is counted wise, and he who shuts his lips is
counted as a man of understanding.
*** (Matthew 12:36-37) But I [Jesus] say to you;
that every idle word; whatever men may speak, they shall give account of it in
the “Day of Judgment”.
(Matt 12:37) For by your ‘words’ you shall be Justified; and by your words you shall
be Condemned.
*** (James 3:1) Not many of you should become teachers, my
brothers; because you know that we who teach = Will Be = JUDGED More Severely!
Why
do So Very MANY… take this Bible verse… OUT of CONTEXT…?

Two of You shall ‘Agree’ = 101” …Blog.
*** (Luke 11:27-28) And it happened as He [Jesus] spoke
these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice and said to Him; = Blessed is the “WOMB” -> that bore You;
and the “BREASTS” -> which
You have sucked.
(Luke 11:28) But He [Jesus] said, -> NO; -> rather; blessed are they who Hear -> the Word of
God = And -> Keep It. [Luke 6:46]
*** (Matthew 1:25) He [Joseph] did Not have marital relations with her until
she had given birth to a son; and he named him Jesus.
*** (Mark
6:3) Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of
James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?
And they were offended at Him.
“What does the Bible say about Jesus’ Mother:
‘Mary’? – 101” …Blog
…
The Catholics have “Falsely ASSUMED”… that Mary is still a Virgin! The Catholic
Church tells them what to believe. They do NOT check the Scriptures for
themselves. Religion always has their own teaching, that is WHY there are so
very many: “Denominations!” The One GOD they say they Believe in has His Holy
Word: put aside for their own “Traditions & Lies!”
*** (John 12:48) He who ‘Rejects’ Me [Christ 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”.
