“Progressive Holiness – 101” …Blog.



“Progressive Holiness – 101” …Blog.

*** (Ephesians 2:8-9-10) For by “Grace” you are saved through “Faith”, and that ‘NOT’ of yourselves, it is THE GIFT OF GOD, [Romans 11:6]
(Eph 2:9) “NOT” of Works, lest anyone should Boast. [Titus 3:5]
(Eph 2:10) For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in them.

*** *** (2Corinthains 10:3-to-6) Of course, we are living in the flesh, but we do not fight in a fleshly way.
(2Cor 10:4) For the weapons of our warfare are not those of the flesh. Instead, they have the power of God to demolish fortresses. We tear down arguments
(2Cor 10:5) and every proud obstacle that is raised against the knowledge of God, taking every thought captive in order to OBEY Christ. [Luke 6:46 & James 1:22]
(2Cor 10:6) We are ready to punish every act of disobedience [Romans 6:1-2 & Proverbs 28:13] when your obedience is complete. [1John 1:5-to-10]

*** (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?
*** (1Corinthains 9:16) For though I preach the gospel, no glory is to me. For necessity is laid on me; yea: Woe is to me -> if I do NOT preach the gospel!

*** (Jeremiah 48:10) Cursed is he who does the Work of the LORD Jehovah Deceitfully; and Cursed is he who keeps back his Sword from blood. [Ezekiel 3:18-to-21]

Are You a Part Time ‘Chameleon’ Christian…?  Do You know of what I speak…? There are those WHO fit into a Church Gathering and as well INOT a Party of Unbelieving Mockers…? Does ‘EVERYONE’ know where You stand in your Faith…? Does a “Risqué Conversation” change when You enter the Room…? My human father used to say… “GD this or that”…! One day I approached Him and said… “Dad, God has blessed You with Health and Wealth: Why do You have to curse His Name…?” From that day forward, he never used GD in front of me again. Sometimes a “Word Fitly spoken”… [Proverbs 25:11-12-13]… is all that is needed. Remember we are Called the… “Salt of the Earth”…?

*** (Matthew 5:13) You are the SALT of the world. But if the salt should lose its taste; how can it be made salty again? It's good for Nothing but to be thrown out and trampled on by people.

*** (James 3:12) Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? Either a vine, figs? So can NO fountain both yield salt water and fresh.

*** (1Timothy 5:20)
Those who SIN, rebuke before ALL; so that the rest also may Fear [God].

*** (Luke 17:3) Take heed to yourselves. If your brother trespasses against you; rebuke him. And if he repents; forgive him.

*** (1Peter 1:13-t-20) Therefore girding up the loins of your mind, being sober, perfectly hope for the grace being brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ,
*** (1Pet 1:14-to-20) as obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance,
(1Pet 1:15) but according to the Holy One who has called you, you also become holy in all conduct,
(1Pet 1:16) because it is written, "Be holy, for I am holy."
(1Pet 1:17) And if you call on the Father, Who without respect of persons judges according to the work of each one, pass the time of your earthly residence in fear, [Fear of God Luke 12:5]
(1Pet 1:18) knowing that you were NOT redeemed with corruptible things, silver or gold, from your vain manner of life handed down from your fathers,
(1Pet 1:19) but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot; [1Corinthians 5:7 Christ our Passover / John 1:29]
(1Pet 1:20) indeed having been foreknown before the foundation of the world, but revealed in the last times for you,

What are the Instructions…. Found in the Holy Word of God…? They are Replete throughout the Scriptures. Simply take a note book… and as You read through the Bible… note them. Simply Remember, Your Bible is GOD’S INSTRUCTIONS to Humankind. Christ Jesus when He was confronted by Satan…. Simply said… “IT IS WRITTEN”…!

*** “It is Written – 101” …Blog.
*** (Isaiah 43:10-to-13) You are My witnesses, says the LORD Jehovah, and My servant whom I have chosen; that you may know and believe Me, and understand that I am He. Before Me no God was formed, nor shall there be after Me.
(Isa 43:11) I, I am the LORD Jehovah; and there is NONE to save besides Me.
(Isa 43:12) I have declared, and have saved, and I have shown, when there was no strange god among you; therefore you are My witnesses, says the LORD Jehovah, that I am God.
(Isa 43:13) Yea, before the day was, I am He; and no one delivers out of My hand; I will work, and who will reverse it?

*** (Galatians 3:1-2-3) O foolish Galatians, who bewitched you not to obey the Truth; to Whom before your eyes Jesus Christ was written among you crucified?
(Gal 3:2) This only I would learn from you: Did you receive -> the [Holy] Spirit [John 7:38-39 & Romans 8:9]; by works of the law; -> or by hearing of faith [Acts 15:8-9]?
(Gal 3:3) Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit; -> do you now ‘perfect’ yourself in the flesh? [by keeping the Sabbath, Passover, Feast days, Etc.?]

*** (2Peter 1:1-to-12) Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of our God and our Savior Jesus Christ,
(2Pe 1:2) Grace and peace be multiplied to you through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
(2Pe 1:3) according as His divine power [Ephesians 1:13-14] has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him Who has called us to glory and virtue,
(2Pe 1:4)  through which He has given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, so that by these you might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
(2Pe 1:5)  But also in this very thing, bringing in all diligence, filling out your faith with virtue, and with virtue, knowledge;
(2Pe 1:6) and with knowledge self-control, and with self-control, patience, and with patience, godliness,
(2Pe 1:7) and with godliness, brotherly kindness, and with brotherly kindness, love.
(2Pe 1:8)  For IF: these things are in you and abound, they make you to be neither idle nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
(2Pe 1:9) For he in whom these things are not present is blind and cannot see afar off and has forgotten that he was purged from his sins in the past.
(2Pe 1:10) Therefore, brothers, rather be diligent to make your calling and election sure, for if you do these things, you shall never fall.
(2Pe 1:11) For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
(2Pe 1:12) Therefore I will not neglect to put you always in remembrance of these things, though you know them and are established in the present truth.

*** (Psalms 138:2) I will worship toward Your holy temple, and praise Your name for Your loving-kindness and for Your truth's sake; for You have magnified = Your Word = above all Your name.

*** (Psalms 119:11) I have hidden Your Word in my heart; so that I might not sin against You [Lord].

*** (Luke 4:4) Jesus answered him, "It is written, 'One must Not live on bread alone; but on every word of God." [Matt 4:4 & Deut. 8:1-2-3]

*** (James 1:22) Keep on being “Doers” of the Word, and “NOT” merely hearers, who ‘Deceive’ themselves.

*** (Romans 8:9) You, however, are not of the flesh but under the control of the Spirit, since God's Spirit lives in you. And if anyone does “NOT”… have the Spirit of Christ: he does “NOT”… belong to Him [Christ].

*** (Mark 7:6-7-8) He [Jesus] told them, "Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites. As it is written, 'These people honor me with their lips: –> but their hearts are far from Me [God].
(Mark 7:7) Their worship of Me is empty: –> because they teach human rules as doctrines.'
(Mark 7:8) You ‘abandon’ the commandment of God: –> and hold to ‘human’ tradition."

Did “Christ JESUS”… Say… “Some”… “Few”… or… “MANY”… ? ? ?
 
He Christ, said… “MANY”…!

*** (Matthew 7:21-22-23) NOT Everyone = who says to Me [Jesus], Lord! Lord! shall enter the kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in Heaven.
(Matt 7:22) MANY = will say to Me in that day, Lord! Lord! Did we not prophesy in Your name, and through Your name throw out demons, and through Your name do many wonderful works?
(Matt 7:23) And then I [Jesus] will say to them = I never knew you! = Depart from Me, those working lawlessness!

“What the Bible is NOT – 101” …Blog.



“What the Bible is NOT – 101” …Blog.

*** (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,

“Supposed Bible ‘Contradictions’? – 101” …Blog.

*** (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” [and Doing] = the Words of the LORD Jehovah [The Holy Word of GOD].

Perhaps You have been wondering WHY…. You have not seen some ‘Regular Publishing’ of my Blog page.  I have been having some Health Issues, and my Doctor has been changing my medications. I have been suffering from Hypertension, High Blood Pressure. Because I am medically retired and do NOT have an employment routine, I do not get the exercise I should. Yes, I do have a stationary Nordac Track Bicycle…. But I do NOT always use it as I should. I usually go to LONDON UK, during the Thanksgiving week, but have decided NOT to go this year. I love to travel but deferred it this year, due to these health issues. Please pray for me…?

*** (Proverbs 4:7) Wisdom is the main thing; get Wisdom; and with all your getting get Understanding.

“Get Understanding! – 101” …Blog.

While using the INTERNET SOCIAL MEDIA sites… I see many making Claims, NOT given to NT Believers. The Bible is a ‘History Book’, where God Reveals HIS dealings with His Covenant People… Israel. It is also a Book of Spiritual Principles ORDAINED by GOD. It is Wisdom, It is Understanding… all founded in the “Fear of God”. All Mankind will simply “Reap what they Sew”…! No matter what their Country or Nationality. America is NOT found in Bible Prophecy and America is NOT God’s Chosen People…! All History, will simply show HOW the Peoples have treated ISRAEL…! Yes, GOD is truly interested in all mankind…. But has COMMANDED… and all mankind has Refused…!

*** (2Peter 3:9) The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that ANY should perish, but that ALL should come to Repentance.

*** (Acts 17:30-31) And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now [Strictly] Commands ALL men everywhere to REPENT:
(Acts 17:31)  Because He hath appointed a day, in which He will judge the world in righteousness by that man [Christ Jesus] Whom: He hath ordained; whereof He hath given assurance unto ALL men; in that He [God] has raised Him [Jesus] from the dead. [John 10:17-18]

*** (1Timothy 2:4) who will have All men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the Truth [John 17:17].
*** (2Peter 3:9) The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that ANY should perish, but that ALL should come to Repentance.

*** (Luke 3:8) Therefore bring forth fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for our father. For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.

*** (2Timothy 2:25-26) in meekness instructing those who oppose, if perhaps God will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth,
(2Tim 2:26) and that they awake out of the snare of the Devil, having been taken captive by him, so as to do the will of that one.

*** (Ecclesiastes 5:7) For in the multitude of dreams, both words and vanities abound; but fear God.

The BIBLE is… Complete…! There is NO NEW PROPHECY or Divine REVELATION … from GOD today..!

*** (Hebrews 1:1-2) God, who at many times and in many ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,
(Heb 1:2) has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds,
*** (Ecclesiastes 5:7) For in the multitude of dreams, both words and vanities abound; but fear God.

*** (2Peter 1:20-21) First of all, you must understand this: NO prophecy in Scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation,
(2Pet 1:21) because NO prophecy ever originated through a human decision. Instead, men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

*** (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]

*** (Luke 23:31) For if they do these things in the green wood, what will be done in the dry?” [Good times VS Bad times]

I have been studying… the Holy Word of God for some 30+ years. I did NOT come to Christ till later in Life. The More I study, the More I realize I do NOT know. The Holy Spirit of GOD… is the real Teacher of His Truth…!Every One who is TRULY Born Again… understands this TRUTH…! Remember Studying the Holy Word of God is NOT…. An Academic Exercise! IT is a Spiritual Exercise of Obedience…! How much YOU love the LORD…. Reflects How Much… You hold His Holy Word….  “PRECIOUS”…!

(Gal 3:2) This only I would learn from you: Did you receive the [Holy] Spirit [Romans 8:9]; by works of the law; or by hearing of faith [Acts 15:8-9]?

*** (2Corinthains 4:3) So if our gospel is veiled; it is veiled to those who are dying.
(2Cor 4:4) In their case, the god of this world [Satan]; has blinded the minds of those who do Not believe: to keep them from seeing the Light of the glorious gospel of Christ; Who is the image of God. [Colossians 1:12-to-19]
