“True Faith or False Faith – 301” …Blog.
***
(Hebrews 12:1-to-4) Therefore since we also are surrounded
with so great a cloud of witnesses, let
us LAY ASIDE: ‘Every Weight’ and the ‘Sin’ which so easily besets us, and let us Run with Patience: the Race that is set before us,
(Heb 12:2) looking to [Christ] Jesus the “Author and
Finisher” of our Faith, Who for
the joy that was set before Him endured the
cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right of the throne of God.
(Heb 12:3) For consider Him [Jesus], Who endured
such contradiction of sinners against Himself, lest you be weary and faint in your minds. [Luke 18:1]
(Heb 12:4) You have Not yet resisted unto blood
[death], striving against sin.
*** (2Corinthians
4:7) But we have this Treasure [Ephesians
1:13-14] in earthen [our human bodies] vessels; that the Excellency
of the [His Holy Spirit] Power; may be of God; and –> ‘NOT’ of us.
*** (Titus 3:5) NOT by works of righteousness which we have
done, but according to His mercy He
saved us; through the washing of
regeneration and renewal of the Holy
Spirit,
*** (Romans 8:9) But you are Not in the flesh, but in the Spirit; if the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone has ‘NOT’ the Spirit of Christ; he is ‘NONE’ of His.
“True Faith” is Always, based on His Holy
Word…! “True Faith”
comes to us from God, without ANY Human effort…! “True Faith” comes from the:
“Love & Mercy & Grace” of God ALONE! “It is the Gift of God: lest Any
[human] should boast” [Ephesians 2:8-9-10]…! “True Faith” is simply a “Fruit of
the Holy Spirit”, so that “GOD Alone” may have the… “Complete Credit” for our:
“True Faith”…! HE is the Potter and we are the “CLAY!” Remember there are “ONLY”
Two World Religions. One is based on “Human Effort” and doing good deeds. All
Pagan World Religions, have good works, to “Earn” their salvation: “Which is
Impossible!” The Other TRUE RELIGION: is the ONE where GOD does it “ALL”, and
in our Obedience to Him: we receive His
Holy Spirit as a sing of God’s Approval of our… “True Faith!” [Acts 15:8-9]
*** (Luke
18:18-19) Then an official asked Jesus,
“Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
(Luke 18:19) Jesus said to
him, Why do you call Me good? Nobody is
good except for “One” –> “God”. [Genesis 18:25]
“None
good but ‘One’ [God] -101” …Blog.
…
*** (Proverbs 30:6) Do Not add to His Words, lest He reprove you
and you be found a LIAR.
*** (Romans 3:21-to-25) But Now a righteousness of God has been
revealed “Apart from Law”, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets;
(Rom 3:22) even the Righteousness of God through the Faith
of Jesus Christ, toward all and upon all those who believe. For there is no
difference, [John 7:38-39]
(Rom 3:23) for “ALL” have Sinned and come short of the
Glory of God,
(Rom 3:24) being “Justified Freely” by His grace,
through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus; [1Corinthians 5:7]
(Rom 3:25) Whom God has set forth to be a “Propitiation” through Faith
in His blood, to declare His righteousness through the passing by of the Sins
that had taken place Before, in the
forbearance of God;
*** (Hebrews 10:18) Now where Remission
of these is, = THERE IS = NO MORE = “OFFERING FOR SIN”. [Numbers 28:9-10]
“It is ‘Finished!’ – 101”…Blog. [1/2]
…
“True Faith” takes into account… “All
Scripture”…! The Bible is NOT: just 66 books, but a “ONE CONTIGUIOUS BOOK” about
mind of God! Revealing His workings with “Mankind!” [Exodus 20:19-20] Many are confused, about keeping the Commandments
of Christ Jesus, thinking that they earn “kudos” and add to their salvation.
They simply “CHOOSE NOT TO”… ‘Read & Understand’… the three pivotal books
of the ‘New Testament’. Their “Truths” can also be found in the OT! What are
these ‘Three Books”…? Can You name them…? Simply PUT: “Romans & Hebrews
& Galatians”…! Theses NT books reveal the “Reconciliation of Mankind” to
GOD: by the Finished Work of Redemption: by Christ Jesus, the Passover Lamb of
God! And “Without ANY Human Effort”…! Oh yes, One does NOT: become ‘Instantly’
filled with understanding! No more so than does a Newborn: eat ‘Steak!’ Milk is
needed for that baby to ‘Grow & Mature.’ But after four or more years, does
“ONE” with “True Faith” still feed themselves on ‘Milk’…? Absolutely “NOT”…!
*** (2Peter 3:18) But grow in Grace and in Knowledge of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ. To Him be the
glory, both now and to the day
of eternity. Amen.
(1Peter 2:1-to-5) Therefore
laying aside all malice and all guile and hypocrisies and envyings, and ALL
evil speakings,
(1Pe 2:2) desire the sincere milk of the Word, as newborn
babes, so that you may GROW by it;
(1Pe 2:3) IF Truly, you have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
(1Pe 2:4)
For having been drawn to Him, a living
Stone, indeed rejected by men, but
elect, precious with God;
(1Pe 2:5) you also as living stones are built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood,
to offer up spiritual sacrifices
acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. [Hebrews 12:28-29]
*** (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. [Ezekiel 44:23]
*** (Luke 13:6-to-9) Then Jesus told them
this parable: "A man had a fig tree that had been planted in his vineyard.
He went to look for fruit on it but
didn't find any.
(Luke 13:7) So
he said to the gardener, 'Look here! For three years I have been coming to look
for fruit on this tree but haven't found any. Cut it down! Why should it waste the soil?'
(Luke 13:8) But the gardener replied, 'Sir, leave it alone for one more
year, until I dig around it and fertilize it.
(Luke 13:9) Maybe next year it'll bear fruit. If Not,
then cut it down.'"

‘Spiritually?’ – 101”…Blog.
*** (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]
“God is Holy & Infinite”…! Humans are
“Sinful & Finite”…! God provides His Salvation: by “His Mercy, Love &
Grace: Alone”…! Mankind thinks they he must… “Earn It”…! Without the
“Scriptures” and Bible TRUTH: mankind adopts “Religion.” Religions, all kinds,
make man somehow believe: the “Lie of Satan!” Remember his methodology has NOT
changed since his temptation of ‘Eve in the Garden’, “Genesis 3:1-to-5”. He
even used it, when tempting Christ Jesus in “Matthew 4 & Luke 4.” … “Has GOD [Really] Said, You Shall NOT”…?
… “IF You [Jesus] be the Son of God”…? … “IF You [Jesus] worship Me [Satan] ALL
will be yours!”…! Satan the “Father of LIES” does NOT want anyone to know the
Scriptures! He does want Everyone… “To Adopt ANY RELIGION”… of their own
choice! Mankind has ONLY Two Options: “True Faith” OR “False Faith”…!
“It
is Written – 101” …Blog.
*** (Matthew 13:19) When
‘ANYONE’ hears the Word of the
kingdom; and does ‘Not’ understand it; then the wicked one [Satan]
comes; and “Catches Away” that which
was sown in his [her] heart. This is the seed sown by the wayside.
*** (Luke 4:6-7-8) And the Devil said to Him [Jesus], All this power I will give you, and the glory of
them; for it has been
delivered to me. And I give it to whomever I will. [1Jn 5:19]
(Luke 4:7) Therefore if You [Jesus] will worship me [Satan], ALL shall be yours.
(Luke 4:8) And Jesus answered and said to him, Get
behind me, Satan! For it
is written, "You shall worship the
Lord your God, and Him only shall you serve."
*** (Leviticus 10:1-2) And
Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put
fire therein, and put incense thereon, and
offered ‘strange fire’ before the LORD, which He commanded them “NOT”.
(Lev 10:2) And there went out “Fire” from the LORD,
and ‘Devoured’ them, and they “Died”, before the LORD.
*** (2Corinthians 5:17-to-21) Therefore, if
anyone is in Christ, he is a
new creation. Old things have disappeared, and-look!-all things have become
new!
(2Cor 5:18) All of this comes from God, Who has reconciled us to himself through
Christ and has given us the ministry of reconciliation.
(2Cor 5:19) For in Christ God was reconciling the world
to Himself by “NOT” counting their sins against them, and He has committed to us the message of
reconciliation.
(2Cor 5:20) Therefore, we are Christ's
representatives, as though God were pleading through us. We plead on Christ's
behalf: "Be reconciled to
God!"
(2Cor 5:21) God made the One [Christ Jesus], Who
did NOT know sin: to be Sin [offering] for us, so that we might become God's righteousness in Him [Christ Jesus].
“Will
‘You’ be: “Reconciled to God?” – 101” …Blog.
How may ONE tell: IF they have the “True Faith”…?
Simply PUT: is it ONLY: “God’s Holy Spirit”, working in You, doing the
“Will of GOD”… in your Life…! OR: is it You, keeping some of His Commandments,
the best You know how…? IS there can be “Anything” in your LIFE: that can be
attributed to “YOU Alone”… and “NOT to God ALONE”…? Is there ‘Any Good’ in you
“Alone”…? IF You answered YES: then You do NOT have… “True Faith”…! It is “ONLY”
by “His Holy Spirit”… that HE, “Christ Jesus”… Lives Out HIS LIFE in You! Any
Good is “NOT Yours”, but His simply… ‘Flowing through You”…! Why else are we
CALLED… “The Body of Christ”…? “His Bride”…! [Hebrews 12:23]
[Micah 6:8]
*** (Isaiah 6:8) And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us [Genesis 1:26]? Then I said:
–> Here am I: –> send me!
“Reasonable
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. [2Corinthians
4:7]
(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. [2Corinthains 10:3-to-6]
(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. [Ephesians 2:10]
(Rom 12:4) For we have many parts in one body; but these parts do ‘Not’ all have the same function
[office].
