“Fear of Man [Politics] – 101”…Blog.



“Fear of Man [Politics] – 101”…Blog.

*** (Proverbs 29:25) The fear of man ‘brings’ a snare, but whoever ‘puts’ his trust in Jehovah [God] shall be ‘safe’.

*** (1Peter 3:12-to-17) For the eyes of the Lord are ‘on’ the righteous, and His ears ‘open’ to their prayers. ‘But’ the Lord's face is ‘against’ those who do evil.
(1Pet 3:13) And ‘who’ is the one who will harm you ‘if’ you become imitators of the good?
(1Pet 3:14) But ‘if’ you also suffer for righteousness' sake, you are ‘blessed’. And ‘do not’ fear their fear, ‘nor’ be troubled,
(1Pet 3:15) but ‘sanctify’ the Lord God in your hearts, and be ready ‘always’ to give an answer to everyone who ‘asks’ you a reason of ‘the hope’ in you, with meekness and fear;
(1Pet 3:16) having a ‘good conscience’, that while they speak ‘against’ you as evildoers they ‘may’ be shamed, those falsely accusing ‘your’ good behavior in Christ.
(1Pet 3:17) For it is better, ‘if’ the will of God wills it, ‘to suffer’ for well-doing than for evil-doing.

Do you ‘Ever’… get “Sick & Tired”… of these People; ‘Who’ post all this “Political & Fear Mongering” posts on Face Book or on any other Internet Site…?  Many, ‘say’ they are Christians and say they are His children…? If that is “SO”… then ‘Why’ all this “Fear Mongering”…? Do you ‘really’ believe your “Complaining” will bring ‘anything’ to Pass…? All your “Protests” and all your “Complaining Posts”… ‘will not’ bring about Any Change! It is Completely OUT of your Hands…! Do you even know “HOW” your elected official… “Voted ‘on’ Each Issue”…? …“NOT!”

*** (Proverbs 21:1) The king's heart ‘is in’ the hand of Jehovah ‘as’ the rivers of water; He ‘turns’ it wherever He will.

*** (Daniel 4:17) This matter is by the ‘decree’ of the watchers, and the ‘demand’ by the word of the holy ones, so that the living ‘may know’ = that the Most High = ‘rules’ in the kingdom of men, and ‘gives’ it to ‘whomever’ He will, and sets up over it the ‘lowest’ of men.

*** (Psalms 115:3) But our God is in Heaven; He has ‘done’ whatever He has ‘pleased’.

“Causes & Protests – 101”…Blog.

Are You Born Again… by the Holy Spirit of God…? Do you call yourself a Christian…? Do you tell Others… that you Love Jesus…? IF you have answered Yes to these… Why then do you post all those posts about the troubles we are having here and around the World? Does your exposing what “Little” you truly know… help the problem…? Does it bring… “Sinners to Christ” or… “Not?”…? Surely I have NOT seen any Bible posts… pointing to Christ Jesus: with all these bad news posts?

*** (Job 5:7) Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward.

*** (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, even you know.

*** (Hebrews 11:36-to-40) Still others endured taunts and floggings, and even chains and imprisonment.
(Heb 11:37) They were stoned to death, sawed in half, and killed with swords. They went around in sheepskins and goatskins. They were needy, oppressed, and mistreated.
(Heb 11:38) The world wasn't worthy of them. They wandered in deserts, mountains, caves, and holes in the ground.
(Heb 11:39) All these people won approval for their faith but did not receive what was promised,
(Heb 11:40) since God had planned something better for us so that they would not become perfect without us.

*** “Whose your ‘Daddy’ – 101?”…Blog.

About Now… You may begin ‘to see’ where I am going with these thoughts…? If you don’t, simply reread this first part and all the blogs listed herein… “Please?” If you have ‘any’ friends who are ‘Not Born Again Christians’… What is there ‘response’; to the ‘Bad News’ you post…? If you have no assurance that God; the God of the Bible is in complete control… where do they stand? If you had ‘lived’ in Europe before… “WW1” & “WW2”… you might have ‘surely’ thought the “End of the Ages”… was coming to pass.

*** (Luke 21:24) And they shall ‘fall’ by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away ‘captive’ into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be ‘trodden down’ of the Gentiles, = ‘until’ = the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.

*** (Rom 11:25) For I do not want you to be ‘ignorant’ of this mystery, brothers, lest you should be wise within yourselves; that ‘blindness’ in part has happened to Israel, = ‘until’ = the fullness of the Gentiles has comes in.

*** (Isaiah 55:3) Bow down your ear, and come to Me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an ‘everlasting covenant’ with you, even the ‘sure mercies’ of David.

- End of the World Predictions – 101 Blog

God is now… working through the Gentiles to disseminate the “Gospel”: both the Good News and the Bad News! He has ‘set aside’ the Jews; only for a season. He will ‘restore’ Israel to its place of prominence and ‘restore’ their witness for Him! Many today who ‘say’ they are Christians… do not ‘know’ their Bibles. They do not ‘understand’ that GOD is in control of “All!” He allowed… “Wicked Rulers”… to punish the Peoples & Nations: because of their refusal of Him. So today, in America… God has allowed a ‘wicked’ ruler here as president!

Do “YOU” Present an Unbalanced Gospel…?
Unbalanced – 101 Blog.

*** (Isaiah 40:17) All nations before Him are as ‘nothing’; and to Him they are thought to be ‘less’ than nothing, and ‘vanity’.

*** (2Samuel 12:9-to-12) Why have you ‘despised’ the Word of Jehovah, to do evil in His sight? You have ‘stricken’ Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and have ‘taken’ his wife to be your wife, and have ‘killed’ him with the sword of the sons of Ammon.
(2Sa 12:10) And ‘therefore’, the sword shall ‘never’ depart from your house, ‘because’ you have despised Me [God] and have ‘taken’ the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be ‘your’ wife.
(2Sa 12:11) So says Jehovah, Behold, I will ‘raise up evil’ against you out of your ‘own’ house, and I will ‘take’ your wives before your eyes and give them to your neighbor. And he shall ‘lie’ with your wives in the sight of this sun.
(2Sa 12:12) For you did it ‘secretly’, but I will do this thing ‘before’ all Israel and before the sun.

Did you “Know” that… ‘Being in Control’… “Is only an Illusion?” You do not know “IF” you have Cancer or even Alzheimer’s; coming to you soon? You do not know “IF” you or one of your loved ones; will even be alive tomorrow! You do not know “IF” your mate or even if one of your children; will be harmed tomorrow! You do not know “IF” another “9-11” terrorist attack will take place tomorrow = ‘devastating’ America and ‘destroying’ its already shaky financial foundation! “IF” your ‘complete’ trust is “NOT” in Christ Jesus; Why then all you “Ramblings about Things”… “Mean ‘Absolutely’ Nothing”

*** (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.

*** (Romans 8:28) And we know that ‘all’ things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are ‘called’ according to His purpose.

*** (Romans 8:38) For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
(Rom 8:39) nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

*** (Philippians 4:6-7-8) “Never Worry” about ‘anything’, but in ‘every’ situation let your ‘petitions’ be made known to God in ‘prayers’ and ‘requests’, with ‘thanksgiving’.
(Php 4:7) Then God's ‘peace’, which goes ‘far beyond’ anything we can imagine, will ‘guard’ your hearts and minds ‘in’ Christ Jesus.
(Php 4:8) Finally, brothers, whatever is True, whatever is Honorable, whatever is Fair, whatever is Pure, whatever is Acceptable, whatever is Commendable, if there is ‘anything’ of excellence and if there is ‘anything’ praiseworthy = ‘keep thinking’ about these things.

*** (Habakkuk 3:17-18-19) Though the fig tree ‘shall not’ blossom, and fruit ‘is not’ on the vines; the labor of the olive ‘fails’, and the fields yield ‘no’ food. The flock is ‘cut off’ from the fold, and ‘no herd’ is in the stalls;
(Hab 3:18) ‘yet’ I will rejoice ‘in’ Jehovah [God], I will ‘joy’ in the God of ‘my’ salvation.
(Hab 3:19) Jehovah the Lord ‘is’ my strength, and He will ‘make’ my feet like hinds' feet, and He will make me to walk on my high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.

“True 'Lies' – 101”…Blog.



“True 'Lies' – 101”…Blog.

*** (Pro 12:22) Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: = but they that deal truly = are His delight.

*** (John 8:44) You belong to your father the devil, = and you want to carry out the desires of your father. = He was a murderer from the beginning = and has ‘never’ stood in the Truth, = since there is ‘no’ Truth in him. = Whenever he tells a Lie = he speaks in character, = for he is a Liar = and the father of [all] Lies.

*** (Luke 6:46) Why do you keep calling Me [Jesus] 'Lord, Lord,' = but ‘don't do’ what I [Jesus] tell you?

Can there be a: “True Lie?” Of course “Not”…! Lies are meant to… “Obfuscate” the Truth! That is a legal term; meaning to Lie through deception! Actually, if you will look for Synonyms, you will find more than “50”. Why would any language have so very many words; to hide the Truth…? Our American English; is replete with such ‘Obfuscations!’ Homes for Sale! A home is a house ‘Plus’ the people that live therein! When you sell the house; you do not sell the People Also! How about Gay…? The correct word is… “Homosexual or Sodomite!” How about Planned Parenthood…? They are Nothing More than the Nazi Death Camps of WW2…! Murder of the Innocents…!
  
*** (Isaiah 5:20) Woe to those who call evil good ‘and’ good evil; who put darkness for light ‘and’ light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet ‘and’ sweet for bitter!

*** (James 5:12) Above all, brothers, do not swear oaths by heaven, by earth, or by any other object. Instead, let your "Yes" mean yes and your "No" mean no, lest you fall under condemnation.

*** (Matthew 12:36-37) But I 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’.

*** (1Corinthains 14:32) The spirits of prophets [True or False] are subject to the prophets [True or False],

“Just because you are ‘Not’… caught in a Lie… does ‘Not’ mean that… You… ‘Told’ the Truth!”

“30 Pieces of Silver”…? How much will you sell out “Christ Jesus” for…? Some sell Him for a lot less…! You call His Blessed Name… and you say You are His; but is that a ‘Preference’ or a ‘Conviction’…? When was the ‘Last Time’; you suffered for the Truth…? Here in America… hardly anyone speak out for the Truth of the Bible! Hardly anyone… Yes, even those who say they are Christian: Will Speak OUT… for those Murdered Innocent Babies… Killed by Abortion! They would rather “Save the Strays” [dogs & cats]… or “Save the Whales” or some other cause! But they will NOT stand for the Aborted Babies…!

‎*** (Genesis 4:10) And He [God] said, What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood cries to Me [God] from the ground.

*** This… "CHRISTMAS"... was NOT be Celebrated by the Over "55,000,000-million" INNOCENT BABIES... Killed by their American Mothers by Abortion!

“Christian or ‘Born Again’ – 101”…Blog.

This “Obfuscation”… goes on and on; among those that say they Love Jesus! They are all caught up in ‘Trying to Cure’… the corrupt political system! Don’t you realize the ‘Economic Health’ of every nation ‘comes’ from God; or is ‘taken away’ by God…? Doesn’t anyone remember the “Moral Majority”; which was “Neither”; and their ‘failed’ attempt to “Christian–Ize” America…? Surely it cannot work again…! You cannot change the minds of mankind… “Till their Hearts ‘are’ Changed!”

*** (Proverbs 14:34) Righteousness ‘lifts up’ a nation, but sin is a ‘shame’ to any people.

*** (Daniel 4:17) This matter is by the ‘decree’ of the watchers, and the ‘demand’ by the word of the holy ones, so that the living ‘may know’ that the Most High ‘rules’ in the kingdom of men, and ‘gives’ it to whomever He will, and ‘sets up’ over it the ‘lowest’ of men.

*** (Isaiah 45:5) I am Jehovah [God], and there is ‘none’ else, ‘no’ God besides Me; I clothed you, though you have ‘not’ known Me;
(Isa 45:6) that they may ‘know’ from the rising of the sun, and to the sunset, that there is ‘none’ besides Me. I am Jehovah, and there is ‘none’ else;
(Isa 45:7) ‘Forming’ the light and ‘creating’ darkness; ‘making’ peace and ‘creating’ [allowing] evil. I Jehovah do ‘all’ these things.

*** (Psalms 75:5) do not lift up your horn on high; nor speak with a stiff neck.
(Psa 75:6) For ‘promotion’ comes ‘neither’ from the east, nor from the west, ‘nor’ from the south.
(Psa 75:7) But God is ‘the judge’; He ‘puts down’ one and ‘sets up’ another.

Positive thinking for Revival – 101

Do ‘You’ call the… Blessed Name of Christ Jesus; and then think that all your political effort; will really… “Change Things?” Are you “Daily”… searching His Holy Word… so that you may share the Blessing of Salvation with “Others”…? Do you spend more time… watching the TV… than you do; “Doing the Work He has called ‘You’ for”…? Or could it be… like so very many others; you have become… “Lupe Warm”…?

*** (Revelation 3:15-16) I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I would that you were cold or hot.
(Rev 3:16) So because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, will I ‘vomit’ you out of My mouth.

*** (Acts 7:51) O stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears! You ‘always resist’ the Holy Spirit. As your fathers did, so you do.

*** (Mark 7:6-7) But He [Jesus] answered and said to them, Well has Isaiah prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, "This people honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me.
(Mar 7:7) However, they worship Me in vain, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men."

*** (Luke 6:26) ‘Woe’ to you when all men shall speak ‘well’ of you! For so their fathers ‘did’ to the false prophets.

“Whose your ‘Daddy’ – 101?”…Blog.

Did you ‘stop’ reading this… because you got angry with me; for something I said herein? Do you really think… that I do not say these very things to myself; “Daily!” Each and every choice we make in Life: either glorifies Christ Jesus and His Holy Word: “OR”… it glorifies the World and its corrupt system! I had someone ask me, “Are you telling me, You don’t Vote?” My reply is that under democracy… “One is ‘Required’ to Vote!” Those that “Do Not Vote”… “Relinquish To Evil!”

*** (1Timothy 5:20) Those who sin, rebuke before all, so that the rest also may fear [God].

*** (Colossians 1:27-28) For to them God would make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the nations, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory,
(Col 1:28) Whom [Christ] we preach, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, so that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus.

*** (Jude 1:22-23) But pity some, making distinction.
(Jud 1:23) But save others with fear, snatching them out of the fire; hating even the garment having been stained from the flesh.

*** (2Peter 3:9) The Lord is not slow concerning His promise, as some count slowness, but is long-suffering toward us, not purposing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

“Give them A ‘Warning’ – 101” …Blog.

Where do ‘You’… go from ‘Here’…? Simply do not believe each & every News report! Most have an ‘unpublished’… “Anti–God Agenda!” Why spend your time… setting up deck chairs on the Titanic…? This world is passing away… and all its desires and pleasures. You will take nothing with you to Heaven… but the Souls of the Lost & Dying… that you lead to Christ Jesus; Lord of Lords, Kings of Kings…!

*** (Acts 2:47) praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord ‘added’ to the church ‘daily’ those who were ‘being’ saved.

*** (1John 2:15-16-17) ‘Stop’ loving the world and ‘the things’ that are in the world. If anyone ‘persists’ in loving the world, the Father's love ‘is not’ in him.
(1Jn 2:16) For ‘everything’ that is in the world-the desire for ‘fleshly gratification’, the desire for ‘possessions’, and ‘worldly arrogance’ -is ‘not’ from the Father ‘but’ is from the world.
(1Jn 2:17) And the world ‘and’ its desires are fading away, ‘but’ the person who does God's will remains forever.

*** (Luke 2:49) And He [Jesus] said to them, Why did you look for Me? Do you ‘not know’ that I must be ‘about ‘My Father's business?

*** (1Corinthians 3:6) I [Paul] have ‘planted’, Apollos ‘watered’, but God ‘gave’ the increase.

“Christian or ‘Born Again’ – 101”…Blog.



“Christian or ‘Born Again’ – 101”…Blog.

*** (John 3:3) Jesus ‘answered’ and ‘said’ to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, ‘Unless’ a man is born again, he ‘cannot’ see the kingdom of God.

*** (Acts 11:26) And finding him, he brought him to Antioch. And it happened to them a whole year they were assembled in the church. And they taught a considerable crowd. And the ‘disciples’ were first called ‘Christian’ in Antioch.

Do you make this “Distinction”… as the “Scriptures Do”…? “Many” today call themselves ‘Christians’ including… the Catholics, Mormons, JW’s, and ‘many’ others. “IF” in fact: they ‘do not’ believe in the “Complete Authority of the Holy Scriptures”… “THEN”… are they ‘Truly’ a Christian…? Today the generic term, “Christian”… is taken by ‘Many’… but ‘truly’ practiced by ‘Few!’ “IF”… Christ Jesus thought “Born Again”… was a ‘complete’ Spiritual Definition; “THEN” shouldn’t we, be ‘using’ it…? Did you notice in “Acts 11:26”… they were: “First… Disciples”…?
*** (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.

*** (John 7:38-39) The one who believes in Me [Jesus], as the Scripture has ‘said’, will have ‘rivers’ of living water flowing from his heart."
(Joh 7:39) Now He [Jesus] said ‘this’ about the [Holy] Spirit, whom those who were believing in Him were ‘to receive’. For the Spirit was ‘not’ yet present, ‘because’ Jesus had not yet been ‘glorified’.

*** (1Corinthians 12:13) For by ‘one’ [Holy] Spirit ‘all’ of us; Jews and Gentiles, slaves and free-were ‘baptized’ into ‘one’ body and were ‘all’ privileged to drink from ‘one’ Spirit.

*** (Ephesians 4:4-5-6) There is ‘one’ body and ‘one’ Spirit. In the same way, you were called to the ‘one’ hope of your calling.
(Eph 4:5) There is ‘one’ Lord, ‘one’ faith, ‘one’ baptism,
(Eph 4:6) ‘one’ God and Father of all, Who is above ‘all’, through ‘all’, and ‘in’ all.

*** (Acts 15:8-9) God, Who ‘knows’ everyone's heart, showed them He approved by ‘giving’ them the Holy Spirit, just as He ‘did’ to us.
(Act 15:9) He made ‘no’ distinction between them and us, because He ‘cleansed’ their hearts by faith.

It is plainly obvious… from these Scriptures; that “No One” is Born Again, ‘without’ the Holy Spirit of God! He or She; is given as God, sees our ‘hearts’, in response to the Faith; He gives for True Biblical Salvation. The Holy Spirit is “God’s Seal” of our Salvation! The Holy Spirit is the ‘gift’ of God; Not earned by ‘works’ of any kind. He is ‘Not’ some second blessing that comes; ‘after’ one is a Christian. The Holy Spirit ‘truly makes’; one a Christian. Many ‘call’ themselves Christian, only because they believe… but that ‘belief’ is “Not Saving Faith”: ‘without’ the Holy Spirit!

*** (1Peter 1:22-23) Purifying your souls in the ‘obedience’ of the Truth through the [Holy] Spirit to unfeigned love of the brothers, love one another fervently out of a pure heart,
(1Pet 1:23) having been ‘born again’, not of corruptible seed, ‘but’ of incorruptible, through the living Word of God, and ‘abiding forever’.

*** (Ephesians 1:7-to-14) In Him [Jesus] we have redemption ‘through’ His blood, the ‘forgiveness’ of our offenses, according to the ‘riches’ of God's grace
(Eph 1:8) that He lavished on us, along with ‘all’ wisdom and understanding,
(Eph 1:9) when He [God] made ‘known’ to us the secret of His will. This was according to His plan that He set forth ‘in’ Christ
(Eph 1:10) to usher in the fullness of the times and to gather up ‘all’ things in Christ, both things in heaven and things on earth.
(Eph 1:11) In Christ we were also ‘chosen’ when we were predestined according to ‘the purpose’ of the One, Who does ‘everything’ according to the intention of His will,
(Eph 1:12) so that we who had already fixed our hope on Christ might ‘live’ for His praise and glory.
(Eph 1:13) You, too, have ‘heard’ the word of Truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you ‘believed’ in Him you were ‘sealed’ with the ‘promised’ Holy Spirit, [John 7:38-39]
(Eph 1:14) Who is the ‘guarantee’ of our inheritance ‘until’ the redemption of God's own possession [us], to His praise and glory.

*** (2Corinthians 1:20) For ‘all’ the promises of God in Him are yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God by us.
(2Co 1:21) But He ‘confirming’ us and ‘anointing’ us with you in Christ is God.
(2Co 1:22) And He has ‘sealed’ us and having given ‘the earnest’ of the [Holy] Spirit in our ‘hearts’.

“The Anointing – 101” Blog about the Holy Spirit

Ok, for ‘those’ of you… who are offended at the ‘differentiation’ between: Christians and Born Again; the Scriptures make it; not me! Perhaps I may ‘ask’ you… “Did you ‘ever’, search the Scriptures for yourself; and ‘test’ your Belief about this?” Or did You just believe, ‘what’ you were told from the Pulpit! What about ‘all’ the Warnings in the Scriptures about… “False Teachers?” I know of a female homosexual pastor… who tells her congregation that they are ‘Born Again’; by just ‘believing’ in Jesus! And yet, they still ‘practice’; their “Homosexuality!” Surely their belief and the fact that they call themselves Christian: “Does Not Make IT So!”

*** (1Corinthians 6:9-10) You know that wicked people ‘will not’ inherit the kingdom of God, don't you? Stop deceiving yourselves! Sexually immoral people, idolaters, adulterers, male prostitutes, homosexuals,
(1Cor 6:10) thieves, greedy people, drunks, slanderers, and robbers will not inherit the kingdom of God.
(1Cor 6:11)  That is ‘what’ some of you were! = “But” you were ‘washed’, = you were ‘sanctified’, = you were ‘justified’ = ‘in’ the name of our Lord Jesus Christ = and = ‘in’ the Spirit of our God.

*** (Jude 1:17-18-19) But you, beloved, ‘remember’ the words spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,
(Jud 1:18) ‘because’ they told you that at the last time there will be ‘mockers’ according to their lusts, leading ‘ungodly’ lives.
(Jud 1:19) These are those setting themselves apart, animal-like ones, ‘not’ having the [Holy] Spirit.

If you have ‘traveled’… outside the USA as I have; you ‘know’ that you ‘must’ have a “Valid Passport!” In the same way… when we make our trip into “Eternity”: those who ‘do not’ have the Holy Spirit… will ‘eventually’ end up in… “The Lake of Fire; for Eternity!” Remember the Scripture above: “Acts 15:8-9?” God ‘saw’ their Heart; and ‘gave’ “THEM”… the Holy Spirit! That is what being Born Again: being Born from Above… by God’s Holy Spirit is ‘all’ about! He is Who opens your “Heart & Mind & Soul”… to the Truth of God’s Holy Word! Without ‘Him’… The Holy Spirit: you are ‘just like’ the Pharisees, Scribes and Lawyers… of Jesus’ time.

*** (Joh 6:44) No ‘one’ can come to Me [Jesus] ‘unless’ the Father [God] Who has sent Me ‘draw’ him, and I will ‘raise’ him up at the last day.

*** (1Corinthians 2:10-to-14) But God has ‘revealed’ those things to us ‘by’ His [Holy] Spirit. For the Spirit ‘searches’ everything, even the ‘deep’ things of God. [Deuteronomy 29:29]
(1Co 2:11) Is there ‘anyone’ who can understand his own thoughts ‘except’ by his own inner spirit? In the ‘same way’, no one can ‘know’ the thoughts of God ‘except’ God's [Holy] Spirit.
(1Co 2:12) Now, we have ‘not received’ the spirit of the world ‘but’ the [Holy] Spirit Who comes ‘from’ God, so that we can ‘understand’ the things that were ‘freely’ given to us ‘by’ God.
(1Co 2:13) We ‘don't’ speak about these things in words ‘taught’ us by human wisdom, ‘but’ in words ‘taught’ by the [Holy] Spirit, as we ‘explain’ spiritual things ‘to’ spiritual people.
(1Co 2:14) A person who isn't spiritual ‘doesn't’ accept the things of God's [Holy] Spirit, for they are ‘nonsense’ to him. He ‘can't’ understand them ‘because’ they are spiritually evaluated.

Salvation – temp-or-permanent - 101?

*** (2Corinthains 13:5) Keep ‘examining’ yourselves to see whether you are continuing in the faith. Test yourselves! You know, do not ‘you’, that Jesus Christ lives in you? Could it be that you are failing the test?

*** (Romans 8:14-to-17) For as many as are ‘led’ by the Spirit of God, they ‘are’ the sons of God.
(Rom 8:15) For you have ‘not received’ the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you have ‘received’ the Spirit of adoption by which we ‘cry’, Abba, Father! [Daddy]
(Rom 8:16) The Spirit Himself bears ‘witness’ with our spirit that we ‘are’ the children of God.
(Rom 8:17) And if we are children, ‘then’ we are heirs; heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ; ‘so that’ if we suffer with Him, we may ‘also’ be glorified together.

Love, in Christ, Roger / Jeremiah 20:9.
