2Cr 10:3-5 ASV - For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh
:4 - (for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the
casting down of strongholds),:5 - casting down imaginations, and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ;...
Luk 17:20 ASV -.... The kingdom of God
cometh not with observation: 21 - neither shall they say, Lo,
here! or, There! for lo, the kingdom of God is within you.This is where the mark of the beast is spiritually visible. If the kingdom of God is with in his people how can they be deceived in the fact that he would be some where else. No it is Christ in you the hope of being resurrected to newness of life, the hope of glory. Jesus told the Jews you are of your father the devil, the mark here is in your spirit. The mark on the forehead and the mark on the hand. As Those being of their father satan, they have the mind of the beast.
The forehead is having the mind of the beast and the hand is doing the works of the beast.This mark is by choice not by force because of some peoples actions they have already taken the mark and the verse above v.21 is the telling of this truth. If the kingdom is within you than you should be doing the works of righteousness, having the mind of Christ.
*Above: (Peter Cutting of the Ear of Malchus)
Matt 25:52 Then Jesus said to him, "Put your
sword back into its place; for all those who take up the sword shall perish by the sword.
If you can receive it there are some already that have that mind and are poised for their orders of destruction. The beast in revelations 13:4 is different from the dragon , the beast are thoses that have the mark of satan. (Beast in this verse Greek: therion)
Beast: to be distinguished from Zoon, almost invariably denotes "a wild beast." In Act 28:4, "venomous beast" is used of the viper which fastened on Paul's hand.
Zoon stresses the vital element, Therion the bestial. The idea of a "beast" of prey is not always present. Once, in Hbr 12:20, it is used of the animals in the camp of Israel, such, e.g., as were appointed for sacrifice: But in the Sept. Therion is never used of sacrificial animals; the word ktenos (see below) is reserved for these.
Therion, in the sense of "wild beast", is used in the Apocalypse for the two Anti-christian 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.When Jesus was filled with the Holy Spirit he was driven by the Holy Ghost into the wilderness.
Mar 1:13 ASV - And he was in the wilderness forty days tempted of Satan; And he was with the wild beasts; And the angels ministered unto him.Now the word beast is not animals as the greek word: Zoon, it is the same as Rev 13:4. Therion, in the sense of "wild beast", is used in the Apocalypse for the two Anti-christian potentates who are destined to control the affairs of the nations with Satanic power in the closing period of the present era.
The beast are demons manifest in mans flesh, reprobate people with the mark of their father. In the days to come this will be common on the earth, and the wilderness will come again for Gods people to endure. The bible says we will meet him in the air on that final day.
Jesus is saying we cannot take up arms and defend our self's in the flesh, it is against the word of God that is a man trying to extend his life his flesh here on earth , that is not the truth of the cross that Jesus preached . To kill for the right to live a little longer on this earth is not the Gospel of Christ.
Jhn 18:36 ASV - Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
Jhn 18:37 ASV - Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end have I been born, and to this end am I come into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the TRUTH ! heareth my voice.
Mat 26:52 ASV - Then saith Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into its place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
Mat 26:53 ASV - Or thinkest thou that I cannot beseech my Father, and he shall even now send me more than twelve legions of angels? That would be 24,000 angels for his defense.
Mat 26:54 ASV - How then should the scriptures be fulfilled that thus it must be?
Jhn 15:19 ASV - If ye were of the world, the world would love its own: but because ye are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. Of all the disciples that walked with Christ all but one died for this promise except John and John brought the book of Revelations .
Mat 10:39 ASV - He that findeth his life shall lose it; and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.
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 10:28 ASV - And be not afraid of them that kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Luk 23:33 ASV - And when they came unto the place which is called The skull, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand and the other on the left.
Luk 23:34 ASV - And Jesus said, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And parting his garments among them, they cast lots.
The very men that took his life Jesus die for them also and for the whole world . For him to conquer hell and death he had to die to his flesh . But he believed his father that he would rise again to new newness of life . And that promise is to all that believe in him.
Jhn 1:12 ASV - But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of God, even to them that believe on his name:
Jhn 1:13 ASV - who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. Jhn 1:14 ASV - And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father), full of grace and truth.
This is the truth to endure until the end we shall be saved , but I will not try to preserve my life for the sake of this world. If fear has gripped you than your salvation is in question, he said you were born to die to this flesh. You must get it straight in your mind now , being stead fast in this calling where he has called you. Where do you believe your flesh will go in the end.
1Cr 9:25 ASV - And every man that striveth in the games exerciseth self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
1Cr 15:53 ASV - For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
1Cr 15:54 ASV - But when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
1Pe 1:18 ASV - knowing that ye were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from your vain manner of life handed down from your fathers;
1Pe 1:23 ASV - having been begotten again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which liveth and abideth.
Everything that Jesus accomplished in his life on this earth is what we as children will also be required to do do. He is the exact example of our living he show us the way to go to live and to endure.
Jhn 14:4 ASV - And whither I go, ye know the way.
Jhn 14:5 ASV - Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; how know we the way?Jhn 14:6 ASV - Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me.
We are looking for that heavenly Jerusalem that city of God not made with hands. Rev 3:12 ASV - He that overcometh, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go out thence no more: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God, and mine own new name.
Rev 21:2 ASV - And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven of God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband.
Jesus said the kingdom of God is within you; so we see here that that heavenly Jerusalem is God's holy people his church triumphant, the bride of Christ . Where will our flesh be in that day!? Something for thought...
Luk 24:12 ASV - But Peter arose, and ran unto the tomb; and stooping and looking in, he seeth the linen cloths by themselves; and he departed to his home, wondering at that which was come to pass.He only saw the linen Jesus was wrapped in.
HE DID NOT SEE HIS DEAD BODY! Not only was his spirit resurrected so was his flesh . And so shall yours in that day if you hold fast to the truth of this gospel. He went from the son of man in his flesh to his cross, to the son of God in his resurrected body.
Luk 24:36 ASV - And as they spake these things, he himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
Luk 24:37 ASV - But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they beheld a spirit.
Luk 24:39 ASV - See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye behold me having.
Luk 24:40 ASV - And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.
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.
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.
Men are trying to hold on to something that will perish in the end, Satan owns this earth and all that is in it and he said he can give it to whom ever he wishes I see the beast coming quickly now. Pray that God prepare your heart and your mind for what is coming upon this earth ,if twenty four thousand angels could not deter Jesus from his cross It would behoove you to pick up yours now ! and crucify that old man that wants to live in this world. Put to death the deeds of your flesh. (Romans 12 :1-2)
Dan 7:7 ASV - After this I saw in the night-visions, and, behold, a fourth beast, terrible and powerful, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth; it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
Dan 7:19 ASV - Then I desired to know the truth concerning the fourth beast, which was diverse from all of them, exceeding terrible, whose teeth were of iron, and its nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet;
Dan 7:23 ASV - Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be a fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
Hsa 13:8 ASV - I will meet them as a bear that is bereaved of her whelps, and will rend the caul of their heart; and there will I devour them like a lioness; the wild beast shall tear them.
Rev 13:2 ASV - And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his throne, and great authority.
Rev 13:4 ASV - and they worshipped the dragon, because he gave his authority unto the beast; and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? And who is able to war with him?
Rev 13:17 ASV - and that no man should be able to buy or to sell, save he that hath the mark, even the name of the beast or the number of his name.
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; Romans is the Sixth book of the new testament; note the chapter and verse 666. Flesh and blood shall not inherit the kingdom of God the flesh profits nothing. That the body of sin might be done away that so we should no longer be in bondage to sin. Bondage to sin is mans carnal desire.
1Jo 2:16 ASV - For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the vain glory of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
The bible says we are no long under the curse of sin and the Law of sin Jesus set you free from that you do not have to sin any longer. If you are a sinner saved by grace and you still have sin in you life the word of God is not living in you. What shall we sin so grace may abound , God for bid.
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;
Rom 6:12 ASV - Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey the lusts thereof:
Rom 6:14 ASV - For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under law, but under grace.
Rom 6:18 ASV - and being made free from sin, ye became servants of righteousness.
Rom 6:23 ASV - For the wages of sin is death; but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. The fact is we were sinners and than the grace of God came through Christ and redeemed us from the law of sin Rom 8:2 ASV - For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.
1Cr 15:56 ASV - The sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law:
The first Adam is no longer my father , I am no longer under his curse because of his sin.
If we are redeemed from the curse that we are not sinners we will not always be sinners saved by grace that is not the gospel of Christ.
Rev 13:18 ASV - Here is wisdom. He that hath understanding, let him count the number of the beast; for it is the number of a man: and his number is Six hundred and sixty and six.
Rev 15:1 ASV - And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having seven plagues, which are the last, for in them is finished the wrath of God.
Rev 15:2 ASV - And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire; and them that come off victorious from the beast, and from his image, and from the number of his name, standing by the sea of glass, having harps of God.
Rev 15:7 ASV - And one of the four living creatures gave unto the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.
Rev 15:8 ASV - And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and none was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels should be finished.
I have said all this to bring some truth about the situation that is coming upon this earth . You must realize the world is slowing imploding is in a degenerate state of no return . Tribulation is for the children of God not the lost of this world.
Mat 24:21 ASV - for then shall be great tribulation, such as hath not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever shall be.
Mat 24:22 ASV - And except those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
Mat 24:24 ASV - For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.
Mat 24:25 ASV - Behold, I have told you beforehand.
Is this word to you and I is it a forth telling of things to come? Yes, I believe so. So who is he saying will go through this tribulation? And shall show great signs and wonders; so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.ELECT: Greek: eklektos; Elect, Elected,
Election: Believers were "chosen" "before the foundation of the world" (cp. "before times eternal," 2Ti 1:9), in Christ, Eph 1:4, to adoption, Eph 1:5; good works, Eph 2:10; conformity to Christ, Rom 8:29; salvation from the delusions of the Antichrist and the doom of the deluded, 2Th 2:13; eternal glory, Rom 9:23. The source of their "election" is God's grace, not human will, Eph 1:4, 5; Rom 9:11; 11:5.
They are given by God the Father to Christ as the fruit of His death, all being foreknown and foreseen by God, Jhn 17:6; Rom 8:29.
While Christ's death was sufficient for all men, and is effective in the case of the "elect," yet men are treated as responsible, being capable of the will and power to choose. For the rendering "being chosen as first-fruits," an alternative reading in 2Th 2:13, see FIRST-FRUITS.
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:
Mat 10:19 ASV - But when they deliver you up, be not anxious how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that hour what ye shall speak.
Mat 10:20 ASV - For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father that speaketh in you.
Mat 10:28 ASV - And be not afraid of them that kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Mat 10:32 ASV - Every one therefore who shall confess me before men, him will I also confess before my Father who is in heaven.
Mat 10:34 ASV - Think not that I came to send peace on the earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Mat 10:38 ASV - And he that doth not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.
Mat 10:39 ASV - He that findeth his life shall lose it; and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.
