Should Gods Children Fight

I want to bring attention to the present condition of this world and many nations including this one. There is so much talk from many that say they believe God would have them fight and kill for this country. Can we reason and say to kill is against the love of God to kill is against the whole Law of God.  If you will look back at the past generations and realize these are the reasons for wars some one has something the other wants or the opposite . Either way they will kill to get what they want. And it is always the other ones fault. Who started what and its all out war.  Every one should know by now who really is the one that creates this hatred. Satan says this earth was given to him to give to whom ever he wants to.  So who do we suppose gave it to satan.  The word says God is sovereign over all things , he created all things and he reigns over all things.  Rom 11:36 ASV - For of him, and through him, and unto him, are all things. To him [be] the glory for ever. Amen.  We must go to the teachings or word of God through Christ Jesus.
Jhn 1:2 ASV - The same was in the beginning with God.
Jhn 1:3 ASV - All things were made through him; and without him was not anything made that hath been made.   
 Mat 6:14 ASV - For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
Mat 6:15 ASV - But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Concerning evil and men that perpetrate evil ,  The only way for God to manifest his power is to bring us into a place where we need his help.  Pharaoh was created for one thing  tribulation! 
Rom 9:17 ASV - For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, For this very purpose did I raise thee up, that I might show in thee my power, and that my name might be published abroad in all the earth.
All things are created by God our father and it says even chastening is for those children that need correction.   Hbr 12:9 ASV - Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
Hbr 12:10 ASV - For they indeed for a few days chastened [us] as seemed good to them; but he for [our] profit, that [we] may be partakers of his holiness.
Hbr 12:11 ASV - All chastening seemeth for the present to be not joyous but grievous; yet afterward it yieldeth peaceable fruit unto them that have been exercised thereby, [even the fruit] of righteousness.  There is so much to say about this Father only chastens those who are his.
Its all about stuff treasures laid up on the earth and the theifs are coming to take it ,  Jesus said so.  
Is a mans soul in the balance with all he owns ! just stuff .  Mat 16:25 ASV - For whosoever would save his life shall lose it: and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake shall find it.
Mat 16:26 ASV - For what shall a man be profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and forfeit his life? or what shall a man give in exchange for his life?
Mat 16:27 ASV - For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then shall he render unto every man according to his deeds.   Remember satan owns all the world you may posess some of it but in the end it will all burn.  Remember    Gal 5:19 ASV - Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these]: fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
Gal 5:20 ASV - idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousies, wraths, factions, divisions, parties,
Gal 5:21 ASV - envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and such like; of which I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that they who practise such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.    

Rom 13:9 ASV - For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not covet, and if there be any other commandment, it is summed up in this word, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.  We have to have money to live and move in this earth and the word says the LOVE of money is the root of all evil .  Greek: epithumeo
Covet, Covetous, Covetousness:

"to fix the desire upon" (epi, "upon," used intensively, thumos, "passion"), whether things good or bad; hence, "to long for, lust after, covet," is used with the meaning "to covet evilly" in Act 20:33, of "coveting money and apparel;" so in Rom 7:7;
Jesus sent them out two by two to preach the kingdom of God and said do not take anything with you, clothes,food shoes nothing. And they did that and when they came back they were full of joy and Jesus said when you went out did you lack for ANYTHING and they said no we did not.
 Now here we go speaking faith again , faith is the substance of things hoped for      Hbr 11:1 ASV - Now faith is assurance of [things] hoped for, a conviction of things not seen.  
Now we know we do not go by sight its not what you see its what you believe in your heart.
Rom 3:4 ASV - God forbid: yea, let God be found true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy words, And mightest prevail when thou comest into judgment.
Psa 119:160 ASV - The sum of thy word is truth; And every one of thy righteous ordinances [endureth] for ever.
Listen the children of Israel were put in a place of great affection in Exodus 14 God told Moses to go by way of the sea. And by going that way he put them in a place of no escape there was no way to go except to the sea they were trapped and God did it.  Sometimes we get into a place where there is no escape from our trials ,afflections trials beyond anything we have experienced . We say we know God that we love him and serve him. Its called fire we have to pass through the fire , the word says he will baptise you with the Holy Spirt and with Fire. And that fire is for cleansing fire burns up the elements that are subjected to it. Anything that could not pass through the fire was burned up . The Lord wants to prove himself to you in all things , It says he chastens thoses whom he loves. Jesus said to buy from him gold tried by fire. Rev 3:18 ASV - I counsel thee to buy of me gold refined by fire, that thou mayest become rich; and white garments, that thou mayest clothe thyself, and [that] the shame of thy nakedness be not made manifest; and eyesalve to anoint thine eyes, that thou mayest see. Gold in the greek = of "righteousness of life and conduct. Kingdom glory.   Isa 10:15 ASV - Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith? shall the saw magnify itself against him that wieldeth it? as if a rod should wield them that lift it up, [or] as if a staff should lift up [him that is] not wood  These are tools that must be used they are instruments of Gods fire to purge the dross and refine hearts.
Jesus said if you find that life your are fighting for than you will lose that eternal one he has for those that love him.  Stay on you cross friends and trust the father that loves you , its all about faith !
Shall Gods children fight against those that he has sent to chastens us , in so doing you will be fighting against God himself . Pharaoh was Gods tool in the wilderness and today those that oppose his righteousness and his chosen people are create by God also.             Rev 13:10 ASV - If any man [is] for captivity, into captivity he goeth: if any man shall kill with the sword, with the sword must he be killed. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.   The Lord knows you and I and he has set in motion all things concerning our life's.   How do you read this ? some will go into prison if they take up the sword to fight for their carnal rights. Or if the gospel is to be preached in prison than he will need a preacher.  To take up the sword is to kill a man that God has put against you to refine you like Gold and by that you will die also by the same sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.   Now read this closely he said here is the patience and your faith SAINTS that is you and I. Pslam 91 is our hope.  More than the sword but all manner of tribulation is coming upon the earth.   Hbr 12:25 ASV - See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not when they refused him that warned [them] on earth, much more [shall not] we [escape] who turn away from him that [warneth] from heaven:
Hbr 12:26 ASV - whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but also the heaven.
Hbr 12:27 ASV - And this [word], Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.
Hbr 12:28 ASV - Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe:
Hbr 12:29 ASV - for our God is a consuming fire.  Escape to where and how ! you will be running from God himself. It is imperative to read this word with the eyes of the spirit and know what it is saying to you . Ask the lord for eyes to see and ears to hear you must be born again.
Jhn 3:5 ASV - Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except one be born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God!      1Cr 15:51 ASV - Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all shall not sleep, but we shall all be changed,
1Cr 15:52 ASV - in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
1Cr 15:53 ASV - For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.  Notice it says at the LAST TRUMP there are seven trumps to be sounded in that day.
And on the last trump we shall all be changed , flesh and blood shall not inheirt the kingdom of God , thats you carnal nature my friend ! your flesh is an enemy of God . So now while there is time to repent and take this word into your heart its not what some man has said it is , the word of God is what is truth what does the word say.  Jesus said unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood you can not inherit the kingdom of God. Eating his word the true manna from heaven , he is the word made flesh and his blood is his very nature that is why you are called to BE SONS of God .

Gal 2:20 ASV - I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that [life] which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, [the faith] which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.
Jhn 6:51 ASV - I am the living bread which came down out of heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: yea and the bread which I will give is my flesh, for the life of the world.
Jhn 6:54 ASV - He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood hath eternal life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
Jhn 6:55 ASV - For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
Jhn 6:56 ASV - He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood abideth in me, and I in him.

 Isa 45:7 ASV - I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil. I am Jehovah, that doeth all these things.

God Was Pleased To Make Known What Is The Riches

Jhn 16:13 ASV - Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he shall guide you into all the truth: for he shall not speak from himself; but what things soever he shall hear, [these] shall he speak: and he shall declare unto you the things that are to come.  Acts 19:1-7     Have you received the Holy Ghost since you believed . 

1Pe 2:4 ASV - unto whom coming, a living stone, rejected indeed of men, but with God elect, precious,
1Pe 2:5 ASV - ye also, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.  It says you are living stones and the word says Jesus is that living stone .  And if he is abiding in you than you are living stones. Christ in you the hope of Glory and that glory is of the character and ways of God as exhibited through Christ to and through believers, 2Cr 3:18; 4:6;
Mat 16:27 ASV - For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then shall he render unto every man according to his deeds.
Mat 25:31 ASV - But when the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit on the throne of his glory:  This is very important to understand there is the letter of the word the letter being in the natural seeing things in the flesh, and their is the spirit of Gods word
Seeing things in the spirit of God by the power of his spirit.  Mat 13:11 ASV - And he answered and said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
Luk 8:10 ASV - And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to the rest in parables; that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
Who are those that he is speaking of that have not the ability to know the mysteries. It is to thoses that deny Christ to those that rejected his being the messiah the only son of God .  And this truth is just as alive today as it was in that day. To those that reject the true gospel of God the fullness of him that has come Jesus the chief corner stone. The corner stone is that stone which all the building is measured and fittley joined together . Every building constructed today has a starting point the very beginning a survey point where everything is measured off of that corner stone. If something is in question than they go to the corner stone to make it right. That corner stone is what everything is built off of. That is what is meant by the sure foundation of God    Isa 28:16 ASV - therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner -[stone] of sure foundation: he that believeth shall not be in haste.   And Jesus is that stone that was rejected and so he said unto those that rejected him your house is left unto you desolate    Luk 13:35 ASV - Behold, your house is left unto you [desolate]: and I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.  Jesus said tear done this building and I will rebuild it in three days speaking of his body. The sign of Jonah three days in the earth and than he resurrected. He was also speaking of his church his people. The moment he came out of the grave he resurrected to life he rebuilt the temple of God its in the hearts of men now not in buildings.  So now God dwells in the hearts of men.
The word says he came unto his own and they received him not.   Rom 9:25 ASV - As he saith also in Hosea, I will call that my people, which was not my people; And her beloved, that was not beloved.     Col 1:27 ASV - to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.   Eph 2:17 ASV - and he came and preached peace to you that were far off, and peace to them that were nigh:
Eph 2:18 ASV - for through him we both have our access in one Spirit unto the Father.
Eph 2:19 ASV - So then ye are no more strangers and sojourners, but ye are fellow-citizens with the saints, and of the household of God,
Eph 2:20 ASV - being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief corner stone;
Eph 2:21 ASV - in whom each several building, fitly framed together, groweth into a holy temple in the Lord;
Eph 2:22 ASV - in whom ye also are builded together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.  1Cr 3:16 ASV - Know ye not that ye are a temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
What am I trying to say here is that you in the end will be his glory .    Mat 25:31 ASV - But when the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit on the throne of his glory:   Of those who are Christ's at His Parousia (see COMING), Luk 14:14, "the resurrection of the just;" Luk 20:33, 35, 36; Jhn 5:29 (1st part), "the resurrection of life;" Jhn 11:24; Act 23:6; 24:15 (1st part); 1Cr 15:21, 42; 2Ti 2:18; Hbr 11:35 (2nd part), see RAISE, Note (3); Rev 20:5, "the first resurrection;" hence the insertion of "is" stands for the completion of this "resurrection," of which Christ was "the firstfruits;" Rev 20:6;   Christ is coming back in his people  the only thing resurrected in his return will be his nature, Christ in his people , the fruit of Christ .   1Cr 15:50 ASV - Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.    1Cr 15:45 ASV - So also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam [became] a life-giving spirit.
1Cr 15:46 ASV - Howbeit that is not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; then that which is spiritual.
1Cr 15:47 ASV - The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven.
1Cr 15:48 ASV - As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
1Cr 15:49 ASV - And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
1Cr 15:50 ASV - Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
1Cr 15:24 ASV - Then [cometh] the end, when he shall deliver up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have abolished all rule and all authority and power
Now according to this word we will remain in this flesh body until he comes for his people. But there is a requirement in this living that is required of us, it is that we manifest the fruit of Jesus in our living and how shall we do that.  We obey his word all of his word , And to obey is to believe now unless you are born again being filled with his spirit it will be impossible to to know the mysteries of his word. Eyes to see and Ears to hear.  If you look at this word in the letter or the natural understanding of man . Than that will be what you see the flesh.    1Cr 2:14 ASV - Now the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him; and he cannot know them, because they are spiritually judged.      The door is wide open to you that are hungry to his calling and he will give to those that ask .

 Rev 3-5   He that overcometh shall thus be arrayed in white garments; and I will in no wise blot his name out of the book of life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
White in the   Greek: leukos         Lampros, "bright, clear," is rendered "white" in Rev 15:6, AV, of "white (linen)" (RV, "bright," following those mss. which have lithon "stone"
 of the garments of angels, and of those exalted to the splendour of the heavenly state
2) shining or white garments worn on festive or state occasions
3) of white garments as the sign of innocence and purity of the soul
1Jo 3:2 ASV - Beloved, now are we children of God, and it is not yet made manifest what we shall be. We know that, if he shall be manifested, we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is.
That word manifested is Christ in you the character the nature and the authority .   2Cr 3:18 ASV - But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the spirit.  So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image.

How Can Two Walk Together lest they agree

Amos 3:3

 Mat 16:19 ASV - I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.   Heaven is this kingdom and we live in this kingdom heaven through Christ, and if we bind in this kingdom what so ever is not of faith than you have bound it in your kingdom already. Now if we are assaulted by something not of faith and we accept it than you have loosed that evil into your kingdom your heaven walk.  You permit it to work against you.
Mat 16:16 ASV - And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
Mat 16:17 ASV - And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jonah: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father who is in heaven.
Mat 16:18 ASV - And I also say unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.   And Jesus is that rock !

Greek: petra
Rock:

denotes "a mass of rock," as distinct from petros, "a detached stone or boulder," or a stone that might be thrown or easily moved. For the nature of petra, see Mat 7:24, 25; 27:51, 60; Mar 15:46; Luk 6:48 (twice), a type of a sure foundation (here the true reading is as in the RV, "because it had been well builded"); Rev 6:15, 16 (cp. Isa 2:19, ff.; Hsa 10:8); Luk 8:6, 13, used illustratively; 1Cr 10:4 (twice), figuratively, of Christ; in Rom 9:33; 1Pe 2:8, metaphorically, of Christ; in Mat 16:18, metaphorically, of Christ and the testimony concerning Him; here the distinction between petra, concerning the Lord Himself, and Petros, the Apostle, is clear  .


2Pe 1:3 ASV - seeing that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that called us by his own glory and virtue;
2Pe 1:4 ASV - whereby he hath granted unto us his precious and exceeding great promises; that through these ye may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in that world by lust.        Seeing it is already accomplished its finish from the foundations of the world.  We have all the promises now !   it says seeing that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that called us by his own glory and virtue;


Gal 3:10 ASV - For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one who continueth not in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.
Gal 3:11 ASV - Now that no man is justified by the law before God, is evident: for, The righteous shall live by faith;
Gal 3:12 ASV - and the law is not of faith; but, He that doeth them shall live in them.
Gal 3:13 ASV - Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us; for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
Rom 10:4 ASV - For Christ is the end of the law unto righteousness to every one that believeth.



2Cr 12:7 ASV - And by reason of the exceeding greatness of the revelations, that I should not be exalted overmuch, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, that I should not be exalted overmuch.
2Cr 12:8 ASV - Concerning this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
2Cr 12:9 ASV - And he hath said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for [my] power is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.  The revelations of God brought the knowledge of Christ and the power of his resurrection and the power of his suffering that Paul would know and be made conformable unto his death.   Gods power is made perfect in our weakness we put all our cares upon him and it becomes our rest .  Jesus was Lord of the sabbath  And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:  He is our rest

2Cr 12:5 ASV - On behalf of such a one will I glory: but on mine own behalf I will not glory, save in [my] weaknesses.
2Cr 12:9 ASV - And he hath said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for [my] power is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
2Cr 12:10 ASV - Wherefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. Trusting in his promises and resting in him and believing he is able to do what he said he would do. Faith makes us obedient to his word . Unbelief makes us disobedient to his word .
Rom 8:7 ASV - because the mind of the flesh is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can it be:

Jam 2:25 ASV - And in like manner was not also Rahab the harlot justified by works, in that she received the messengers, and sent them out another way?   Rahab's faith in God save her and her whole family .

Hoping to be healed is looking forward to that promise ,  which has already come ( no faith )   and looking back to the cross is believing , By his stripes you WERE healed. It is a matter of faith. Faith brings weakness and weakness brings power of God.  We can not save ourselves for the promises of God are yes and Amen.

Mar 11:24 ASV - Therefore I say unto you, All things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
Mar 11:25 ASV - And whensoever ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have aught against any one; that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.   Being able to forgive is binding that  powerful spirit of hate and every evil work that comes from it. And loosing through forgiveness the freedom of his love and grace to flow through you.  A spirit of bitterness will not only bind you up but also the one you are bitter against, and it and the many around you also be defiled your family every one evolved in your life.   Hbr 12:15 ASV - looking carefully lest [there be] any man that falleth short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble [you], and thereby the many be defiled;


Hbr 4:3 ASV - For we who have believed do enter into that rest; even as he hath said, As I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
The word believed is Faith to except this promise its finished !  Not looking forward to some day of healing or deliverance or a promise but looking Back to the cross,  it is finished It says by his stripes we WERE!!  healed past tense.    So we have no works unto salvation we can not save our selfs. And the works are finished from the foundations of the earth . Any works done here after is of the flesh and works of our flesh brings death.  
2Pe 1:3 ASV - seeing that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that called us by his own glory and virtue;
2Pe 1:4 ASV - whereby he hath granted unto us his precious and exceeding great promises; that through these ye may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in that world by lust.  And receiving the promises is walking by faith
Eph 2:5 ASV - even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace have ye been saved),
Eph 2:8 ASV - for by grace have ye been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, [it is] the gift of God;    

Amo 3:3 ASV - Shall two walk together, except they have agreed?
  Mat 12:36 ASV - And I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
The judgement is being compounded now as we walk it is the confession of our mouth we speak now what will judge us or save us. And this judgment is working now in our tongues in the confession of our mouth.

Num 21:5 ASV - And the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loatheth this light bread.    Jesus was that bread he said Moses did not give you that bread but my father gave you the true bread the manna from heaven.  Jesus is that true bread the unleavened bread.  
Jhn 6:31 ASV - Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.
Jhn 6:32 ASV - Jesus therefore said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, It was not Moses that gave you the bread out of heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread out of heaven.
Jhn 6:33 ASV - For the bread of God is that which cometh down out of heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
Jhn 6:35 ASV - Jesus said unto them. I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

Num 21:6 ASV - And Jehovah sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Num 21:7 ASV - And the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, because we have spoken against Jehovah, and against thee; pray unto Jehovah, that he take away the serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people.
Mummer and complaining about there situation and not believing . To speak against the lord is sin.

Fiery serpents is what we came from ,coming from evil into light.  Act 26:18 ASV - to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive remission of sins and an inheritance among them that are sanctified by faith in me.
Col 1:13 ASV - who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love;  Brass is a type of our flesh man the serpent was made of brass. He became sin for us he has paid the ransom for us he took our sin .    Hbr 5:7 ASV - Who in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear,
Hbr 5:8 ASV - though he was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which he suffered;
Hbr 5:9 ASV - and having been made perfect, he became unto all them that obey him the author of eternal salvation;


Sin brings the curse keeping our eyes on the serpent and see our curse on Jesus ,he took our sin
2Cr 5:19 ASV - to wit, that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not reckoning unto them their trespasses, and having committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
2Cr 5:20 ASV - We are ambassadors therefore on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us: we beseech [you] on behalf of Christ, be ye reconciled to God.
2Cr 5:21 ASV - Him who knew no sin he made [to be] sin on our behalf; that we might become the righteousness of God in him.
When they looked on the serpent on the pole they were healed.   A ll the promises of God first came to Christ and all those who come to Jesus receive those promises also.  That is why living out side the promises of God brings the curse.
Our curse was put on him and his blessing was put on us.     Rom 5:10 ASV - For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life;
Rom 5:11 ASV - and not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
2Cr 5:18 ASV - But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and gave unto us the ministry of reconciliation;
2Cr 5:19 ASV - to wit, that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not reckoning unto them their trespasses, and having committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

There is common knowledge that when a man is snake bit by a poisonous serpent the immediate remedy is to give a serum to counteract the poison made from an animal who is immune to the venom.   So when they look at Jesus( The serpent on the pole ) and believed they take his serum from his blood for he had no sin therefore he heals us of the curse of that snake bite called sin.  He said unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood .  We must be born again  and not of the same flesh as Adam our father of the flesh. Born of the water of the word of  Christ eating his word daily and taking on his very nature drinking his blood .  We are born of his spirit and wash in his blood.
Hbr 13:10 ASV - We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat that serve the tabernacle.
Hbr 13:11 ASV - For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest [as an offering] for sin, are burned without the camp.
Hbr 13:12 ASV - Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered without the gate.
Hbr 13:13 ASV - Let us therefore go forth unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
Hbr 13:14 ASV - For we have not here an abiding city, but we seek after [the city] which is to come.


Jam 1:17 ASV - Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, neither shadow that is cast by turning.  
Jhn 1:9 ASV - There was the true light, [even the light] which lighteth every man, coming into the world.

One Pearl of great price

In the verses below I see a very important choice to be made here , and it is the gift of Faith that will win in this life .    Hbr 11:6 ASV - And without faith it is impossible to be well-pleasing [unto him]; for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that seek after him.   Only this faith will save you today, the children in the desert found out very late they even wanted to return to Egypt they could not believe that God is and he could provide their every need they want to go back to the flesh pots  , the verse above is speaking of your salvation from beginning to end . Do you believe his promises? do you believe him with your very life do you believe he is!!     And he has rained down manna from heaven again unto you    Jhn 6:31 ASV - Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.
Jhn 6:33 ASV - For the bread of God is that which cometh down out of heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
Jhn 6:35 ASV - Jesus said unto them. I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.    Here is that kingdom of God made perfect , never to hunger or thirst soul food friend.  There are two kinds of treasure here , an earthly treasure and an heavenly treasure.  Earthly is the love of the world and the things thereof. Works of the flesh is the motive and a mans heart is wide open here. The light of the body is the eye, if therefore thy eye be single than thy WHOLE body shall be full of light.     Metaph. the eyes of the mind, the faculty of knowing.   But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is the darkness!   There is a sense of awareness in these days an awakening. And it is Gods mercy to those of you who are hungry for truth and righteousness. The world is in a tail spin out of control sinking lower and lower. And you that see this are asking is God involved in this is this his doing. Are we as we hear in our daily life living in the last days !  What does the word say about it the word will speak to your heart as you read it and God will disclose his will to you.  From the beginning of time since the foundations of the world man has ask this question.  Concerning the end   Jesus said he did not know only the father knew, but he gave us his word and he said when you see these things coming upon the earth know you redemption draws nigh.  Reading the news today is like reading an obituary there is no news but bad news for the most part. Your awareness today is Gods calling,  it is his voice to you.     Hbr 2:1 ASV - Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things that were heard, lest haply we drift away [from them].
Hbr 2:2 ASV - For if the word spoken through angels proved stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward;
Hbr 2:3 ASV - how shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation? which having at the first been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed unto us by them that heard; 
Mat 6:19 ASV - Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal:
Mat 6:20 ASV - but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth consume, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
Mat 6:21 ASV - for where thy treasure is, there will thy heart be also.


Greek: thesauros
Treasure (Noun and Verb):

denotes
(1) "a place of safe keeping" (possibly akin to tithemi, "to put"),

(a) "a casket," Mat 2:11;

(b) "a storehouse," Mat 13:52; used metaphorically of the heart, Mat 12:35, twice (RV, "out of his treasure"); Luk 6:45;

(2) "a treasure," Mat 6:19-21; 13:44; Luk 12:33, 34; Hbr 11:26; "treasure" (in heaven or the heavens), Mat 19:21; Mar 10:21; Luk 18:22; in these expressions (which are virtually equivalent to that in Mat 6:1, "with your Father which is in Heaven") the promise does not simply refer to the present life, but looks likewise to the hereafter; in 2Cr 4:7 it is used of "the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ," descriptive of the Gospel, as deposited in the earthen vessels of the persons who proclaim it (cp. ver. 4); in Col 2:3, of the wisdom and knowledge hidden in Christ.

 Mat 24:34 ASV - Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all these things be accomplished.
Mat 24:35 ASV - Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
Mat 24:36 ASV - But of that day and hour knoweth no one, not even the angels of heaven, neither the Son, but the Father only.
Mat 24:37 ASV - And as [were] the days of Noah, so shall be the coming of the Son of man.
Mat 24:38 ASV - For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark,
Mat 24:39 ASV - and they knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall be the coming of the Son of man.  Verse 38    eating and drinking
aligns  with the verse in       Rom 14:17 ASV - for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
1Cr 4:20 ASV - For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.
Luk 8:10 ASV - And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to the rest in parables; that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.  One last verse Hbr 11:7 ASV - By faith Noah, being warned [of God] concerning things not seen as yet, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. It says Noah moved with Godly fear, what do you suppose he was fearful of , the word says the fear of God is a clean fear. It was not cowardly fear is was the fear that God said it and Noah believed it. People to day have no fear of the coming judgement of God  Jhn 3:36 ASV - He that believeth on the Son hath eternal life; but he that obeyeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him .  The Ark of safety for us is Jesus  , the ark of the testimony contained the manna which is the word,  the bread of life  and the tables of stone the old law the written word and Jesus fulfilled that he is the word made flesh, And the rod of Aaron. Aaron was a priest of God and the rod he carried was the authority and the power the very nature of God.  We being children of God      Hbr 5:6 ASV - as he saith also in another [place,] Thou art a priest for ever After the order of Melchizedek.    Jhn 15:7 ASV - If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatsoever ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

Hbr 5:9 ASV - and having been made perfect, he became unto all them that obey him the author of eternal salvation;   Gal 2:20 ASV - I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that [life] which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, [the faith] which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.  When the door of the ark was closed on Noah
and his family the word says he condemned the world .  Hbr 11:7 ASV - By faith Noah, being warned [of God] concerning things not seen as yet, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.     By rejecting this world and falling on the rock of Christ we will inherit his righteousness.      Mat 21:42 ASV - Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner; This was from the Lord, And it is marvelous in our eyes?
Mat 21:44 ASV - And he that falleth on this stone shall be broken to pieces: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust.    The door of the Ark is closing and the world has been condemned and inside is that safety we seek,  the door is Jesus he is our Ark of safety .

Who Is Our Battle With

The world is in convulsions wickedness is becoming more and more prevalent Guns ,guns and more guns.  What shall we do!!         The Lord is my keeper he is my strong tower  Psalms 91 is my constitution.  This country is already lost it has been for several years you must realize it!! and get on with your destination to the fulfilling of your cross.  And who is our battle with who is our enemy. Eph 6:12      For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual [hosts] of wickedness in the heavenly [places].                Colo 1:16        for in him were all things created, in the heavens and upon the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and unto him;

 What people of God must understand we were born for this day and if we are called by his name than we should act like him. The word says as you have received Christ Jesus so walk ye in him.  No we do  not just fly away and miss the best part. Its in his word do not over look it .   Mark 1:13       And he was in the wilderness forty days tempted of Satan;    And he was with the wild beasts; And the angels ministered unto him. And the devil said unto him, To thee will I give all this authority, and the glory of them: for it hath been delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. Do you see what he said he owns this world and he can give it to whom ever he wants hence the powers that control it now.  Jesus  prayed Father do not take them out of this world but keep them while they are in it.  Where you are right now ,  The scripture above where it talks about wild beast , its not an animal as you think. The Greek word here is       Therion, in the sense of "wild beast", is used in the Apocalypse for the two Antichristian potentates who are destined to control the affairs of the nations with Satanic power in the closing period of the present era, Rev 11:7; 13:1-18; 14:9, 11; 15:2; 16:2, 10, 13; 17:3-17; 19:19, 20; 20:4, 10.    metaph. a brutal, bestial man, savage, ferocious.    There is so much to say here about the situation in this country and we are living in a time like no other .  My question to you is why not now no man knows the exact time of this but he said you can tell by the signs of the times in which we live. Perversion in this country is higher than ever before child abuse like no other time murder and every evil work of satan. Gala 5:19   Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these]: fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousies, wraths, factions, divisions, parties, envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and such like; of which I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that they who practise such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.    
   
Seen the news lately it is so depressing and heavy to watch,  and you know this is not a movie that will end in a short time . You and I are in the cast of players and its what part you play in this life as to whether you win the gold or not .  2 Peter 3:3   knowing this first, that in the last days mockers shall come with mockery, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for, from the day that the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. For this they willfully forget, that there were heavens from of old, and an earth compacted out of water and amidst water, by the word of God; by which means the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: but the heavens that now are, and the earth, by the same word have been stored up for fire, being reserved against the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.    Whether it be fifty years from now or tonight he will come ,  and it says he will come as a thief in the night, one thing is for certain the flesh of man will perish but the soul will live for ever. God breathed into Adam the breath of life and he became a living soul and if God created you who's breath was it that created you . Everything is in subjection to God it rains on the just and the unjust    Goliath is his name and your flesh is the game the flesh demands that you  obey , But Jesus has come to save us , Rom 8:2    For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.  Only by the sword of the spirit can we cut off the head of this giant ! our old carnal man . The word says the sword is a two edged sword and it cuts both ways , to destroy your enemy's powers and the works of satan. But it also cuts to your flesh and it will bring life changing repentance if you obey it .
     John 13:13          Ye call me, Teacher, and, Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.   And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?    God forbid: yea, let God be found true, but every man a liar; as it is written,    Rom 3:4   That thou mightest be justified in thy words, And mightest prevail when thou comest into judgment.  And this verse is speaking of Gods faithfulness to his word yes and amen .    Remember when Noah and his family entered the Ark he was condemning the world and all it has. Gods word says he wants you to be a living sacrifice holy and acceptable . Rom:12  I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, [which is] your spiritual service.   And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, and ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.  I ask the Lord one day I said Lord how do I renew my mind, he instantly spoke in my mind by my word by my word.  It says God spoke this creation into existence by his word . Jesus defeated satan on the mountain in his trial of fasting.   The number Forty meaning Probation,trials and testing and Jesus answered satan always he never spoke anything to him but the word. It is written satan . Act 14:22     confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God.  The kingdom of God is here right now and we enter into it now , There is a great lie that has been taught that we will not endure tribulations we will just fly away.  Remember Jericho  So Achan answered Joshua and said, "Truly, I have sinned against the LORD, the God of Israel, and this is what I did:    when I saw among the spoil a beautiful mantle from Shinar and two hundred shekels of silver and a bar of gold fifty shekels in weight, then I coveted them and took them; and behold, they are concealed in the earth inside my tent with the silver underneath it."    Then Joshua and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, the silver, the mantle, the bar of gold, his sons, his daughters, his  oxen, his donkeys, his sheep, his tent and all that belonged to him; and they brought them up to the valley of  Achor.   Joshua said, "Why have you troubled us? The LORD will trouble you this day." And all Israel stoned  them with stones; and they burned them with fire  after they had stoned them with stones.  Even the gold and the silver,brass and Iron  there is a shadow of great truth here. The metal is a type of Gods vessels of mercy.   and that he might make known the riches of his glory upon vessels of mercy, which he afore prepared unto glory,  
  2 Tim 2 :20    Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto honor, and some unto dishonor.   It says Achan hid the devoted thing thing in the earth a type of our flesh , remember the talent that the master gave unto his servant.      Mat 25:25     and I was afraid, and went away and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, thou hast thine own.    Mat 25:26     But his lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I did not scatter;      Mat 25:28     Take ye away therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him that hath the ten talents.    Mat 25:29     For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away.   Remember Jericho was after the river Jordan they passed through the water of separation, and it says the water stood up as a heap all the way to a city called ADAM.  The second Adam JESUS did not fail he fulfilled.  Now Jericho is a type and a shadow of our flesh and God said every thing in that city must be burn with fire. and understand a shadow is an object below the light ,  the object creates a shadow which is the true when the light is shown upon it.   You can not have God and the world to. There is no half white and half black Christians in Gods kingdom no lukewarm Christians. He will spew them out of his mouth the word says.   Achan wanted all of God and his flesh too ! he is a type of Christians today. God told Joshua there is sin in the camp and you can not defeat the enemy when there is sin in your life.  Gal 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that [life] which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, [the faith] which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.   Hbr 6:6     and [then] fell away, it is impossible to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.   Your God is a jealous God over you.  The Lord does not wink at sin and there is no little whites lies . You say you are saved you say you have walked across Jordan and you sins are behind you . To day is a day of reckoning come ye out from amongst them offer that sacrifice in Romans 12:1-2  be that vessel of mercy .  2Ti 2:20     Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto honor, and some unto dishonor. 2Ti 2:21     If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, meet for the master's use, prepared unto every good work. 2Ti 2:22     after righteousness, faith, love, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.  Gods word is to those that believe to you and all your house even to as many as the Lord our God shall call.

  Jericho in the Greek = "   Jericho = "place of fragrance"   Eph 5:2   and walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of a sweet smell. 


 This is the Hebrew word for Jericho = Its moon   The moon is a dead plant it only reflects the light of the son,    sun. Mat 19:28     And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, that ye who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
      Jericho = "place of fragrance"    

I Hear The Sound Of The Abundance of Rain

 Joe 2:28 ASV - And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
Joe 2:29 ASV - and also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my Spirit.

Jhn 6:27     Work not for the food which perisheth, but for the food which abideth unto eternal life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him the Father, even God, hath sealed.
Col 1:27 ASV - to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
Where has the church gone wrong here , we can go to the book of Acts and see the promise, each believer is filled with the Holy Spirit
Luk 24:46 ASV - and he said unto them, Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer, and rise again from the dead the third day;
Luk 24:47 ASV - and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name unto all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.
Luk 24:48 ASV - Ye are witnesses of these things.
Luk 24:49 ASV - And behold, I send forth the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city, until ye be clothed with power from on high.
Luk 24:50 ASV - And he led them out until [they were] over against Bethany: and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.  

Sealed for the day of redemption
Greek: sphragizo

Seal (Noun and Verb):
"to seal" (akin to A), is used to indicate

(a) security and permanency (attempted but impossible), Mat 27:66; on the contrary, of the doom of Satan, fixed and certain, Rev 20:3, RV, "sealed it over;"

(b) in Rom 15:28, "when . . . I have . . . sealed to them this fruit," the formal ratification of the ministry of the churches of the Gentiles in Greece and Galatia to needy saints in Judea, by Paul's faithful delivery of the gifts to them; this material help was the fruit of his spiritual ministry to the Gentiles, who on their part were bringing forth the fruit of their having shared with them in spiritual things; the metaphor stresses the sacred formalities of the transaction (Deissmann illustrates this from the papyri of Fayyum, in which the "sealing" of sacks guarantees the full complement of the contents);

(c) secrecy and security and the postponement of disclosure, Rev 10:4; in a negative command, Rev 22:10;

(d) ownership and security, together with destination, Rev 7:3-5 (as with the noun in ver. 2; see A); the same three indications are conveyed in Eph 1:13, in the metaphor of the "sealing" of believers by the gift of the Holy Spirit, upon believing (i.e., at the time of their regeneration, not after a lapse of time in their spiritual life, "having also believed," not as AV, "after that ye believed;" the aorist participle marks the definiteness and completeness of the act of faith); the idea of destination is stressed by the phrase "the Holy Spirit of promise" (see also Eph 1:14); so Eph 4:30, "ye were sealed unto the day of redemption;" so in 2Cr 1:22, where the Middle Voice intimates the special interest of the Sealer in His act;

(e) authentication by the believer (by receiving the witness of the Son) of the fact that "God is true," Jhn 3:33; authentication by God in sealing the Son as the Giver of eternal life (with perhaps a figurative allusion to the impress of a mark upon loaves), Jhn 6:27.


I  want to at this time to explore the organized churches reasoning of the gifts and also the in filling of the Holy Spirit according to the gospel as we read it.  The church of man says that all the gifts went away when the word of God was completed as to the written word we have to day, the bible.
They base there whole doctrine on one scripture 1 Cor 13:10  but when that which is perfect is come, that which is in part shall be done away.  That which is perfect is Jesus Christ this verse is speaking of Jesus and his coming up until he comes back ,all things are that Jesus is the same yesterday today and for ever  Rom 11:29 ASV - For the gifts and the calling of God are not repented of.     Did the father change his mind about the promise of the Spirit and all the gifts of his spirit , you know Paul wrote   Gal 1:8 ASV - But though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach unto you any gospel other than that which we preached unto you, let him be anathema.
Rev 22:19 ASV - and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the tree of life, and out of the holy city, which are written in this book.
Luk 24:44 ASV - And he said unto them, These are my words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must needs be fulfilled, which are written in the law of Moses, and the prophets, and the psalms, concerning me.  I am trying to make a point here the word of God is perfect and complete I see a hypocritical stance on the part of the men who determined this interpretation of that verse of scripture. It is absolutely backwards to the word of the gospel. As the verses below.

Mar 16:15 ASV - And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation.  Creation is still being completed man kind is still being born upon this earth there will still be new hungry souls born upon this earth. To the whole creation from beginning to the end of all things,  now who are they leaving out.  To all the earth up until the time of the end of all things   1Cr 15:51 ASV - Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all shall not sleep, but we shall all be changed,
1Cr 15:52 ASV - in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.  As long as the world is turning there is a need of truth real truth.

Mar 16:16 ASV - He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned.      Rom 6:3 ASV - Or are ye ignorant that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? This is the faith to believe 1Cr 15:50 ASV - Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
What will inherit the kingdom of God ?   Jesus   Col says its Christ in you the hope of glory. Only the children receive the inheritance of there father.
Rom 6:5 ASV - For if we have become united with [him] in the likeness of his death, we shall be also [in the likeness] of his resurrection;
Rom 6:6 ASV - knowing this, that our old man was crucified with [him], that the body of sin might be done away, that so we should no longer be in bondage to sin;  Baptized is very important to the believer its not a ritual as the world sees it . It is a spiritual death unto self its not about a church thing or tradition. It says he that believes ! this is an absolute requirement of the gift of faith. Water is a grave symbolic of the tomb where Jesus was laid , cessation of the flesh the carnal nature of man and his coming up from the water is being resurrected coming out of the tomb with Jesus to newness of life. Being born again. Rom 8:11 ASV - But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwelleth in you, he that raised up Christ Jesus from the dead shall give life also to your mortal bodies through his Spirit that dwelleth in you.  If the spirit of God abides in you now than you will know it there is a absolute change takes place in your life. The church of man says you get it all when you except Jesus as your personal savior, No that is not scripture you do not.  The word says if you want to be saved  Act 2:38 ASV - And Peter [said] unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.    2Cr 7:10 ASV - For godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation, [a repentance] which bringeth no regret: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.   When a man repents he changes his heart he does not continue in sin. And worldly sorrow is what it is they do not really repent  from their heart  . When the Lord comes into your life and revels your sin you want to repent your heart is broken, Godly sorrow brings tears its from the heart dear friend.
Repent to change your mind how are you living today !  Be baptized put that old carnal man to death and be born again unto newness of life. And than the promise of the father the Holy Spirit the comforter the teacher the understanding, revelation and knowledge will abide in you.

 Act 19:2 ASV - and he said unto them, Did ye receive the Holy Spirit when ye believed? And they [said] unto him, Nay, we did not so much as hear whether the Holy Spirit was [given].
Act 19:3 ASV - And he said, Into what then were ye baptized? And they said, Into John's baptism.

My friend if you do not have or you are not sure than make sure today ask the father he will answer .You need the power of the Holy Ghost the promise Jesus spoke of in John 14 and John 16
And all through the scriptures where the spirit of Christ is there is liberty.
Psa 51:17 ASV - The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: A broken and contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.   

1Cr 13:12 ASV - For now we see in a mirror, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know fully even as also I was fully known.

1Jo 3:2 ASV - Beloved, now are we children of God, and it is not yet made manifest what we shall be. We know that, if he shall be manifested, we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is.    Is this saying if Christ is manifested in you than you will be just like him and you will see him as he really is.   
 Jhn 15:8 ASV - Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and [so] shall ye be my disciples.

The word manifested Greek: phaneroo
Appear, Appearing:

akin to No. 1, signifies, in the Active Voice, "to manifest;" in the Passive Voice, "to be manifested;" so, regularly, in the RV, instead of "to appear." See 2Cr 7:12; Col 3:4; Hbr 9:26; 1Pe 5:4; 1Jo 2:28; 3:2; Rev 3:18. To be manifested, in the Scriptural sense of the word, is more than to "appear." A person may "appear" in a false guise or without a disclosure of what he truly is; to be manifested is to be revealed in one's true character; this is especially the meaning of phaneroo, see, e.g., Jhn 3:21; 1Cr 4:5; 2Cr 5:10, 11; Eph 5:13.

Gal 2:20 ASV - I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that [life] which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, [the faith] which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.
God sent his son that whosoever would except him into there heart would have life eternal.  It is manifesting the very nature and life of Christ  they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus   .Name in the Greek  Onoma       or all that a "name" implies, of authority, character, rank, majesty, power, excellence, etc., of everything that the "name" covers:     For God Is Love and How Much Does He Love You My Friend

BREAD FOR THE SOUL

John 6:26-27       Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye ate of the loaves, and were filled.      Work not for the food which perisheth, but for the food which abideth unto eternal life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him the Father, even God, hath sealed.

Luk 6:3 ASV - And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read even this, what David did, when he was hungry, he, and they that were with him;
Luk 6:4 ASV - how he entered into the house of God, and took and ate the showbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat save for the priests alone?
Luk 6:5 ASV - And he said unto them, The Son of man is lord of the sabbath.
David went into the house of God and broke the law by eating the sacred loaves of bread that only the priests can eat. He also gave some to his companions."

Luk 6:5 ASV - And he said unto them, The Son of man is lord of the sabbath.
I believe an important truth is here a shadow of better things to come. As for David he was hungry   as was his men , he also knew Gods mercy and loving kindness David broke the written Law but he saw a greater law the law of liberty ,   Did he sin and cause his men to sin also lets look, David in the spirit saw the law of grace he even sang psalms of the messiah and wrote of his love. It was Gods Law not mans law it was given to men by God David saw the messiah in his psalms. He knew God and ever faithful word of truth he saw two covenants and he knew Jesus was lord of the sabbath. So David was going to trust himself with the one he loved his father Jehovah God. David had spiritual insight and the spirit of God was on him remember God would speak to David and David would inquire of God and the Lord would answer .  Notice Jesus said the Son Of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.  David was not breaking the Law he was fulfilling it he was eating the unleavened bread of life.  The spirit of Gods word is ever working here,   In the days of Abraham   Gal 3:8 ASV - And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand unto Abraham, [saying,] In thee shall all the nations be blessed.  The key word here is Foreseeing in the    

Greek: proeidon

Foresee, Foreseen:
an aorist tense form without a present, "to foresee," is used of David, as foreseeing Christ, in Act 2:31, RV, "foreseeing" (AV, "seeing before"); in Gal 3:8, it is said of the Scripture, personified, personal activity being attributed to it by reason of its Divine source (cp. ver. 22). "What saith the Scripture?" was a common formula among the Rabbis. In the Sept., Gen 37:18; Psa 16:8 (proorao); 139:3. 

       Why would Jesus mention this in Luke 6-5 speaking it to those that had no rest. David did not see bread in the letter of the Law he saw Jesus the unleavened bread . Born beyond his time a type and a shadow of the true church .   Isa 9:6     For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.  Of the increase of his government and of peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to establish it, and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of Jehovah of hosts will perform this.
Luk 1:32     He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:   Jhn 8:56     Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day; and he saw it,  Gala 3-8    and was glad. David was a man born out of time he saw Jesus also and was glad. Jesus did not say David broke the Law except he be a priest  (  which it is not lawful to eat save for the priests alone?)  2Sa 6:14 ASV - And David danced before Jehovah with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod.
2Sa 6:15 ASV - So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of Jehovah with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.   David worshiped God  And that Ark contained the Rod of Aaron (ministers of God) the rod of correction ,  The law the shadow of grace and the manna in a golden jar Gold being a type or presents of God so the word was God and Christ was that manna that came down from heaven .  David saw the Messiah in all this and he was glad.   Do you see here what he did spiritually he put down every thing that was of the world he stripped himself of his kingly garments his crown his natural power it says somewhere he danced naked before the Lord.   He was wearing an ephod he was a priest, God made David what he was.  Rev 3:7 ASV - And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth and none shall shut, and that shutteth and none openeth:  Jesus says he has the key of David and that key was a heart a perfect heart before God . God is calling many Davids to restore the kingdom of God .   Jhn 4:23 ASV - But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers.

 Jhn 4:24 ASV - God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth.

1Cr 15:24 ASV - Then [cometh] the end, when he shall deliver up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have abolished all rule and all authority and power.

Jesus is that promise and the light of Gods word he was that shadow that type to come of Gods Love the fulfilling of Gods law.
                                                                                                                                                      David was walking in the fulfillment of the Law of grace,  Jesus was that unleavened bread .  When people of the old law see the loaves they see nothing but bread a loaf of bread they see the letter of the word.   2Cr 3:6     who also made us sufficient as ministers of a new covenant; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.  The law brings death the spirit brings life everlasting.  Once again you must be born again in the spirit to see the kingdom of God.     Luke 17:20     And being asked by the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God cometh, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: neither shall they say, Lo, here! or, There! for lo, the kingdom of God is  WITHIN YOU.  Please see what this is saying Jesus is that kingdom the word says the kingdom of God is not meat nor drink ( carnal worldly bread)  BUT RIGHTEOUSNESS PEACE AND JOY.  Jhn 14:17     [even] the Spirit of truth: whom the world cannot receive; for it beholdeth him not, neither knoweth him: ye know him; for he abideth with you, AND SHALL BE IN YOU.  The bible says that God sealed us   2Cr 1:22     who also sealed us, and gave [us] the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.   The word EARNEST here is
Greek: arrabon

Earnest (Noun):
originally, "earnest-money" deposited by the purchaser and forfeited if the purchase was not completed, was probably a Phoenician word, introduced into Greece. In general usage it came to denote "a pledge" or "earnest" of any sort; in the NT it is used only of that which is assured by God to believers; it is said of the Holy Spirit as the Divine "pledge" of all their future blessedness, 2Cr 1:22; 5:5; in Eph 1:14, particularly of their eternal inheritance. In the Sept., Gen 38:17, 18, 20. In modern Greek arrabona is an "engagement ring."
Can you see here the earnest applies only to those that receive it. You are bought with a price you are not your own any longer you are married to another the word says  1Cr 7:39     A wife is bound for so long time as her husband liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is free to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.  Looking at this in the spirit not the letter the woman is the church the bride to be the husband that is dead is the old law the letter of the law.   2Cr 5:17     Wherefore if any man is in Christ, [he is] a new creature: the old things are passed away; behold, they are become new. But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and gave unto us the ministry of reconciliation; to wit, that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not reckoning unto them their trespasses, and having committed unto us the word of reconciliation.   I speak not only of the Law given by  Moses but also the Law of men and there flesh , apostate laws that bind men up and put heavy burdens on them.    Gal 1:9     As we have said before, so say I now again, if any man preacheth unto you any gospel other than that which ye received, let him be anathema.   The real gospel that delivers and heals that has power over all the enemy power to cast out devils to lay hands on the sick and they shall recover
 Mar 16:17     And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise hurt them;   So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken unto them, was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen. THIS IS THE CHURCH TRIUMPHANT church means the called out ones.   Act 2:38     And Peter [said] unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, [even] as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him. EVEN AS MANY AS THE LORD GOD SHALL CALL. How far is those that a far off , today my friend its just as alive today as it was at that moment . God is still pouring out his spirit to those that ask. Do not let anything or any one take your crown.  Rev 3:11     I come quickly: hold fast that which thou hast, that no one take thy crown.   a crown

a) a mark of royal or (in general) exalted rank

1) the wreath or garland which was given as a prize to victors in public games

b) metaph. the eternal blessedness which will be given as a prize to the genuine servants of God and Christ: the crown (wreath) which is the reward of the righteousness

c) that which is an ornament and honour to one

1Ti 2:6     who gave himself a ransom for all; the testimony [to be borne] in its own times;   what is given in exchange for another as the price of his redemption, ransom.

Ye have heard that it was said

Ye have heard that it was said . Looking back to the Mosaic Law the law God gave to his children to bring them to a place of surrender, before the law man knew no sin. The law was made to restrain man and his lust of the flesh . There is a saying Laws are made to be broken . I want to point out the contrast between the Law of sin and the Law of Grace. When man is given a choice he always takes the course of his nature , the nature of the carnal man.  If it caters to his lust and desires of his flesh he will take that road every time. So the word says   Rom 7     but sin, finding occasion, wrought in me through the commandment all manner of coveting: for apart from the law sin [is] dead.  So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me.   But if what I would not, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me.    but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members.  Rom 8:2     For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.    So now we must understand what Jesus meant when he spoke theses words to Nicodemus YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN ! ,   Being born again is a life changing event it is the Law of Grace in effect for us.  Jesus also said if you find your life here on this earth you will lose the promise of resurrection life at his coming       Mat 7:14     For narrow is the gate, and straitened the way, that leadeth unto life, and few are they that find it.  Mat 10: 39  He that findeth his life shall lose it; and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.    For whosoever would save his life shall lose it: and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake shall find it. Luke      9:24     For whosoever would save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.     Ye have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: but I say unto you, resist not him that is evil: but whosoever smiteth thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.  We look at this and say how could this be how could a man let this happen to himself.  Because only Christ could do this ?  No he became that example unto us and greater works shall ye do.  Now  the works of the flesh is    . Gal 5   Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these]: fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,    idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousies, wraths, factions, divisions, parties,   envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and such like; of which I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that they who practice such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.   Here we go it says  that they who practice such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.   Risist not him who is evil but whosoever
The word says he went to his cross a LAMB to his slaughter. Isa 42:1     Behold, my servant, whom I uphold; my chosen, in whom my soul delighteth: I have put my Spirit upon him; he will bring forth justice to the Gentiles. He will not cry, nor lift up his voice, nor cause it to be heard in the street.
A bruised reed will he not break, and a dimly burning wick will he not quench: he will bring forth justice in truth.   John 19:7 The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God. When Pilate therefore heard this saying, he was the more afraid; and he entered into the Praetorium again, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer. Pilate therefore saith unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? Knowest thou not that I have power to release thee, and have power to crucify thee? Jesus answered him, Thou wouldest have no power against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath greater sin.  Pilate was frighten because it says his wife had a dream that night about Jesus and was very troubled and said to Pilate do not harm him.   Now where Jesus is at this moment is where most natural man will beg for his freedom, please do crucify me !. But remember Jesus told Pilate for this very reason was I born , he was born to die in his flesh and the same is true for us we were born to die on our cross to crucify our carnal flesh also thus he was that example. But Jesus spoke not unto Pilate . I believe if the man Christ Jesus had have ask for his life to be spared that Pilate set him free it would have been Just as Paul when the men of the city made a pact to kill Paul as soon as he was seen by them, the centurion at that time heard of the plot and sent Paul out of the city with a very strong armed guard.  Jesus said unto this moment was I born.   Now let us go to Luk 22:41 And he was parted from them about a stone's cast; and he kneeled down and prayed,    saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.   And there appeared unto him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.   Just as on the mount of transfiguration .   It was not his flesh he was in agony for it was the shame of the cross and the sin of the world the weight of that sin crushing him. And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became as it were great drops of blood falling down upon the ground.   Mar 14:32     And they come unto a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith unto his disciples, Sit ye here, while I pray.    Gethsemane = "an oil press" a place where they crushed the olives for there oil I have read where the stone use for this process was over two thousand pounds.  This place was only fitting for his last moments ,  But he cried out to his father one more time feeling the weight of the worlds sin and becoming sin,   a son who knew no sin . Yet he went to his cross in full obedience to his father.      Isa 53:10     Yet it pleased Jehovah to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see [his] seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of Jehovah shall prosper in his hand.  In the very moments of his agony I believe Jesus remembered the scripture in Psalm 22 written about him now this is where I would have you read psalm 22 and keep in mind where Jesus is at in the garden of Gethsemane .  He took mine and your guilt and our shame he shed his blood for you and me Jesus saw you at that moment .   Hbr 10:9     then hath he said, Lo, I am come to do thy will. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second       Rom 8:2     For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.    Where do you stand today in this great calling the word talks about a book and in that book names are written the book of life , Jesus said if you confess me before men I will confess you before my father.   John said behold the lamb of God that TAKES AWAY THE SIN OF THE WORLD.  Jesus said to forgive and all through the gospels he says to forgive, he said on the cross forgive them father they know not what they do,     forgive and be set free      Luk 6:37     And judge not, and ye shall not be judged: and condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: release, and ye shall be released:    You must forgive by Gods grace you can! he will make a way it is your heart you bind yourselves up with not being able to forgive so when you do forgive from your heart you are releasing that person and yourself also. The very first thing in obtaining salvation is  repentance ­= changing ones mind. And even repentance is a gift of God so ask him for the gift to repent   Psa 51:17     The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: A broken and contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.        Hbr 12:14     Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord:     The word sanctification in the    Greek: hagiasmos

Holiness, Holy, Holily:
translated "holiness" in the AV of Rom 6:19, 22; 1Th 4:7; 1Ti 2:15; Hbr 12:14, is always rendered "sanctification" in the RV. It signifies

(a) separation to God, 1Cr 1:30; 2Th 2:13; 1Pe 1:2;

(b) the resultant state, the conduct befitting those so separated, 1Th 4:3, 4, 7, and the four other places mentioned above. "Sanctification" is thus the state predetermined by God for believers, into which in grace He calls them, and in which they begin their Christian course and so pursue it. Hence they are called "saints" (hagioi).

Gal 2:20     I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that [life] which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, [the faith] which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.
