“Betrayal – 101” …Blog.
***
(Matthew 26:54-to-57) But how
then shall the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so? [Luke 24:44-to-49]
(Matt
26:55) In that hour Jesus said to the crowds, Have you come out in order
to take Me with swords and clubs, as against a thief? I sat daily with you,
teaching in the temple, and you did Not lay hands on Me.
(Matt 26:56)
But all this happened that the
Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples fled, forsaking Him. [Betrayal]
(Matt 26:57)
And they who had seized Jesus led Him
away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had
assembled.
***
(Psalms 51:1-to-10) To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David,
when Nathan the prophet came to him, after
he had gone in to Bathsheba. Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your loving-kindness; according to the
multitude of Your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.
(Psa 51:2) Wash
me completely from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
(Psa 51:3) For I confess my transgressions; and my sin
is ever before me.
(Psa 51:4) Against You, You only, have I sinned, and done evil in Your
sight; that You might be justified when You speak, and be clear when You judge.
(Psa 51:5) Behold,
I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me.
(Psa 51:6) Behold, You [God] desire Truth in the [my] inward
parts; and in the [my] hidden part
You shall make me to know Wisdom.
(Psa 51:7) Purge
me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
(Psa 51:8) Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which You have ‘broken’ may rejoice.
(Psa 51:9)
Hide Your face from my sins, and blot
out all my iniquities.
(Psa 51:10) Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.

(1Kings 11:1-to-10) And King
Solomon loved many foreign women, even the daughter of Pharaoh, Moabites,
Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians, Hittites;
(1Ki 11:2)
of the nations which the LORD Jehovah
had said to the sons of Israel, You shall
Not go in to them, and they shall Not go in to you; surely they
will turn away your heart After their gods. Solomon clung to these in love.
(1Ki 11:3) And he had seven hundred wives [700],
princesses, and three hundred concubines [300]. And his wives turned away his heart.
(1Ki 11:4)
For it happened when Solomon was old, his wives turned away his heart after
other gods. And his heart was Not
perfect with the LORD Jehovah his God, as was the heart of David his father.
(1Ki 11:5)
For Solomon went after Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Sidonians, and after
Milcom, the abomination of the Ammonites;
(1Ki 11:6) and Solomon did evil in the sight of the
LORD Jehovah, and did Not go
fully after the LORD Jehovah like his father David.
(1Ki 11:7) Then Solomon built a high place for
Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill which is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the sons
of Ammon.
(1Ki 11:8) And likewise he did for all his foreign
wives, and burned incense and sacrificed to their gods.
(1Ki 11:9) And the LORD Jehovah was angry with Solomon because
his heart was turned from the LORD Jehovah,
the God of Israel, Who had appeared to him “Twice”
(1Ki 11:10)
and had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should Not go after other
gods; and he did Not keep that which
Jehovah commanded.
*** (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.
(Mat 10:35) For I [Jesus] 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.
(Mat 10:36)
And a man's Foes –> shall be
those of his Own household.
(Mat 10:37)
He who loves father or mother More than Me [Jesus] –> is NOT worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter More
than Me [Jesus] –> is NOT worthy of
Me.
(Mat 10:38) And he who does NOT take up his cross and follow Me [Jesus]
–> is NOT worthy of Me.
“Judas:
‘Family’ members – 101” …Blog.
Have You ever been… “Betrayed”…? Throughout the Holy Word of GOD, there
are many such references. Above are listed only a few. God, the God of Israel
was “Betrayed” by His Covenant
People, “Israel!” Almost all the human kings of Israel… “Betrayed”… the Lord and His Holy Word! What was the Command: that
the LORD Commanded… “All the Kings of Israel”…? Simply open your Bible and read
out loud… “Deuteronomy 17:14-to-20”…?
Few kept these ‘Precepts!’ Christ Jesus was “Betrayed” by Judas, even after Judas had seen so many miracles.
Today, such “Betrayal” is common
place.
*** (1Timothy 5:24-25) Some men's
sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment. And some they also follow after. [Ecclesiastes 12:13-14]
In our American Society, “Wedding Vows” [Deuteronomy 23:21]… are cast aside as easily as: ‘Yesterdays
Newspaper!’ Promiscuity among the ‘Married’ is as plenteous: as those ‘Unmarried.’
Children are taught to… NOT: “Honor your Father & Mother!” Society in
general has “No Fear of God”… Nor do they want Any! The “NEWS” hardly ever
tells the complete “TRUTH”: only that which has been… “Politically Corrected to
Protect the Liars!” “Betrayal” has
become the ‘New Norm’, here in American Society! Just how many… “Men &
Women”… have been “Betrayed” by
their… “Spouses, Children & Relatives”…? And do I even mention those “Employers”
who have “Shut their Doors”: leaving Employees without Work. These lists GO: “ON
& On & on”…! Or those ‘Political Promises’ of CHANGE… “But to What?” Did You really think that “You” would be… “Exempt
from ‘ANY’ of This”…?
*** (1Peter
4:12) Beloved, do Not be astonished
at the fiery trial which
is to try you, as though a strange thing happened to
you,
(1Pe 4:13) but rejoice according as you are partakers of Christ's suffering, so
that when His glory shall be revealed, you may be glad also with exceeding joy.
(1Pe 4:14) If you are
reviled for the name of Christ,
you are blessed, because the Spirit of God and of glory
rests on you. Truly according to
them, He is blasphemed, but according to you He is glorified.
*** (Job
2:4) And Satan answered the LORD Jehovah and said, Skin for
skin, yea, all that a man has he will give for his life.
(Job 2:5) But indeed put forth Your hand now, and touch his bone and
his flesh, and he will curse You to Your face.
(Job 2:6) And the LORD Jehovah
said to Satan, Behold, he is in
your hand, but save his life.
(Job 2:7) And Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD Jehovah
and struck Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot to the top of his
head.
(Job 2:8) And he took a broken piece of pottery to scrape himself
with. And he sat down among the ashes.
(Job 2:9) And his wife said
to him, Do you still hold to your integrity? Curse God and die!
(Job 2:10) But he said to her, You speak as one of the foolish ones
speak. What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and
shall we not receive evil? In all this Job did not sin with his lips.
*** (Matthew
5:45) so that you may become sons of
your Father [God] in Heaven. For He makes His sun to rise on the
Evil and on the Good; and
sends rain on the Just and on the Unjust.
*** (2Corinthains
12:8-9-10) For this thing I besought the
Lord three times [3X], that it
might depart from me.
(2Cor 12:9) And He said to me, My grace is sufficient for you,
for My power is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore I will
rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may overshadow me.
(2Cor 12:10) Therefore I am
pleased in weaknesses, in insults, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses
for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am powerful.
***
(Job 5:6-to-9) For Affliction does Not come forth from
the dust, Nor does Trouble spring up
out of the ground;
(Job 5:7) but man is born to Trouble, as the sparks
fly Upward.
(Job 5:8) Truly, I would seek to God, and to God I would put my plea,
(Job 5:9) Who is doing great things, even beyond
searching; marvelous things without number,
***
(Hebrews 4:16) Therefore
let us come “Boldly” to the throne
of grace; that we may -> obtain Mercy: -> and find Grace to
help -> in time of need. [James 4:3]
***
(Romans 2:4) Or do you despise the riches of His
kindness, and the forbearance and long-suffering, Not knowing that the kindness
of God leads you to Repentance? [2Timothy
2:25-26]
Did You know that “Any Betrayal”… is an
Opportunity for You…? Some of us by personality or upbringing trust
everyone. Others trust no one! Surely… “NOTHING”… can touch a True Child of
God: unless He GOD, permits it! [Proverbs
4:7] Most of the time, we as humans, want “Immediate Understanding” as to
WHY… “God allowed this “Betrayal”, in
My Life”… [Isaiah 55:8-to-11]? When You
were ‘Born Again’ by the Holy Spirit of God, did You immediately start to Study
His Holy Word for Wisdom? [2Corinthains 4:16] If You did,
then You did Not miss out about the many Bible Verses that speak about the “Sufferings”…
which the ‘Body of Christ’, was privy to? Surely, You did Not miss that God the
Father will PRUNE His Vine, that it “Bears More Fruit?” Many of US… simply add
Christ to our lives: forgetting that… “He is LORD of Lords & KING of Kings”…!
He does Not have to explain to His Real Children what He is doing in their
Lives! “The Just shall Live by FAITH”…! Simply PUT: as Christ Jesus “Obediently”
[John
8:28-29] went to the
Cross… “We should Also”… Take up our Cross & Follow Him!
*** (Colossians 1:24) who now
rejoice in my sufferings on your behalf, and I fill up the things lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh, on behalf of His body, which is the church;
*** (Romans
6:1-2) What shall we say then?
Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
(Rom 6:2) God forbid. How
shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
*** (John 15:1-to-6) I [Jesus] am the True
Vine, and My Father [God] is the
Vinedresser.
(John 15:2) Every branch in Me that does Not bear
fruit, He takes away. And every one that
bears fruit, He Prunes it so that it may bring forth “More Fruit.”
(John 15:3) Now you are clean through the Word which I [Jesus]
have spoken to you.
(John 15:4) Abide in Me [Jesus], and I in you. As
the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me.
(John 15:5) I [Jesus] am the Vine, you are the branches. He who abides in
Me, and I in him, the same brings
forth much fruit; for without Me [Jesus]
you can do nothing.
*** (Hebrews 13:5-6) Keep your lives free from the love of
money, and be content with what you have,
for God has said, "I
will never leave you or abandon you.
(Heb 13:6)
Hence we can confidently say, "The Lord is my helper; I
will Not be afraid. What can Anyone do to Me?"
*** (Hebrews 12:6-7) for whom
the Lord loves He chastens, and He scourges every son whom He receives." [John 15:1-2-3]
(Heb 12:7) If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons, for what son is he Whom the Father does Not
chasten? [None!]
*** (Ephesians 5:9) For the Fruit of the [Holy]
Spirit consists of every form of Goodness, Righteousness, and “TRUTH”. [2Peter
1:1-to-10]

Fruit of the Holy Spirit – 101”…Blog. [1/7]
...
Did You know that Christ Jesus has a plan for
your LIFE…? Just perhaps He had to “Remove” some of your dead branches, so that
You could bear “Fruit for Him”…? Dead branches are Comfortable for the Tree!
But Not: to bear fruit on, Because there is “NO Life in Dead Branches!” Do You
realize that “Christ Jesus as GOD”… had to “Learn Obedience”… as “Christ Jesus
the Man” -> the Passover Lamb of God…? May I simply suggest that… He has allowed these things… Into Your
Life… so that You TOO: may learn Obedience to Him…?
*** (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.
*** (Hebrews 5:8) though being a Son, yet He [Jesus] learned obedience by the things
which He Suffered. [1Corinthians 5:7 Christ our Passover]
*** (2Corinthains 3:5) NOT that we are sufficient of
ourselves, to think “Anything” as of ourselves; But our sufficiency is
of God [Alone]; (2Corinthians
4:7)
