Matt 24:14 And Than The End Shall Come

                            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:    Become Greek: ginomai  Arise, Arose, Arouse, Raise, Rise, Rouse:   "to become, to take place," is sometimes suitably translated "arise;" e.g., Mat 8:24; Mar 4:37     Mat 4:16 ASV - The people that sat in darkness Saw a great light, And to them that sat in the region and shadow of death, To them did light spring up.
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.   When Jesus told Nicodemus you must be born again to see the kingdom of God .                                      Adam became a living soul God breathe his breath in the nostrels of and he became a living soul .  Every one born upon this earth has become a living soul unto God we are his creation .  

 1Co 15:19 ASV - If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.   But now hath Christ been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of them that are asleep.
          For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.       For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.   So also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.     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.         who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.   We were all born of Adams blood and Adams will and of his flesh our natural fathers were also born of Adam.  Adam gave us his flesh and it will die  some day For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.   Adam became a living soul. The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.     1Co 15:38 ASV - but God giveth it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.
1Co 15:47 ASV - The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven.      As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.  Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.    We have a cross to bear and that cross is the one Jesus spoke of in   Mat 10:38 ASV - And he that doth not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.   We spiritually put to death the deeds of our flesh daily on our spiritual cross ,    Rom 8:3 ASV - For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:   that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.    For they that are after the flesh mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For the mind of the flesh is death; but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace:  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:    and they that are in the flesh cannot please God.    This christian walk is more than to speak his name in passing , it is to live in the power of that name .  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 must realize the world is coming to a close everything that was spoken in Rev is soon coming to pass .  Jesus has told the church as to what is coming and the end of this age in Matt 24 .    To be born again is to be filled with his spirit as in the book of Acts 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. Act 19:1 ASV - And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper country came to Ephesus, and found certain disciples:    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.   And he said, Into what then were ye baptized? And they said, Into John's baptism. And Paul said, John baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people that they should believe on him that should come after him, that is, on Jesus. And when they heard this, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.   And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied. And they were in all about twelve men.

Luk 24:47 ASV - and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name unto all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.   Ye are witnesses of these things.  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 .  How is it that these same Apostles proclaimed and wrote the letters to the church the true gospel they received from Christ himself .  Years afterward they were writing this truth to you and I . The church today has lost its way as to the original church .     Jhn 10:1 ASV - Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.  

Mar 16:15 ASV - And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation.
Mar 16:16 ASV - He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned.
Mar 16:17 ASV - And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues;
Mar 16:18 ASV - they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Mar 16:19 ASV - 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.
Mar 16:20 ASV - And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen.
Mat 24:14 ASV - And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world for a testimony unto all the nations; and then shall the end come.

Our Cross Is The Altar We Embrace

    Jhn 3:35 KJV - The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.

Jhn 3:36 KJV - He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. 
LIFE Greek: zoe  Life, Living, Lifetime, Life-Giving:
(Eng., "zoo," "zoology") is used in the NT "of life as a principle, life in the absolute sense, life as God has it, that which the Father has in Himself, and which He gave to the Incarnate Son to have in Himself, Jhn 5:26, and which the Son manifested in the world, 1Jo 1:2. From this life man has become alienated in consequence of the Fall, Eph 4:18, and of this life men become partakers through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, Jhn 3:15, who becomes its Author to all such as trust in Him, Act 3:15, and who is therefore said to be 'the life' of the believer, Col 3:4, for the life that He gives He maintains, Jhn 6:35, 63. Eternal life is the present actual possession of the believer because of his relationship with Christ, Jhn 5:24; 1Jo 3:14, and that it will one day extend its domain to the sphere of the body is assured by the Resurrection of Christ, 2Cr 5:4; 2Ti 1:10. This life is not merely a principle of power and mobility, however, for it has moral associations which are inseparable from it, as of holiness and righteousness. Death and sin, life and holiness, are frequently contrasted in the Scriptures.
Mat 7:21 ASV - Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven. 

Will   Greek: thelema  Will, Would:
signifies    "that which is willed, of the will of God," e.g., Mat 18:14; Mar 3:35, the fulfilling being a sign of spiritual relationship to the Lord; Jhn 4:34; 5:30; 6:39, 40; Act 13:22, plural, "my desires;" Rom 2:18; 12:2, lit., "the will of God, the good and perfect and acceptable;"                                                    
   Rom 12:1 ASV - 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.  Luke 9:3 Matt10:38
  Rom12:2       And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.     The only way we can renew our minds from this world is that we must be born again of Gods spirit and to study and read this word of grace , feed upon this word of God.  This what Jesus meant when he said unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood   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. Jesus therefore said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, ye have not life in yourselves.  For the life of Christ is in his word the gospel of his father , and his blood is his very life to partake of his blood is to walk as he walked to manifest the fruit of Jesus the son of God. The fruit of his spirit
 1Co 15:45 ASV - So also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.   Jesus Told Phillip when he said show us the father and we will be satisfied .  Jesus said he came to show us the father and what the will of the father was for those that would believe .   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.    If ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also: from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.   Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and dost thou not know me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; how sayest thou, Show us the Father?
Jhn 14:10 ASV - Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I say unto you I speak not from myself: but the Father abiding in me doeth his works.
2Co 5:18 ASV - 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.                                                                                                                                                                                       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.
Col 2:9 ASV - for in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily,     and in him ye are made full, who is the head of all principality and power:
Luk 4:18 ASV - The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, Because he anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor: He hath sent me to proclaim release to the captives, And recovering of sight to the blind, To set at liberty them that are bruised,   To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.                                  And he closed the book, and gave it back to the attendant, and sat down: and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on him.   And he began to say unto them, To-day hath this scripture been fulfilled in your ears. Luk 6:5 ASV - And he said unto them, The Son of man is lord of the sabbath.  Jesus was the fulfilling of the Law   Mat 3:13 ASV - Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.
Mat 3:14 ASV - But John would have hindered him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?
Mat 3:15 ASV - But Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffereth him.  A sign unto us is his death burial and resurrection                                        
   Rom 6:3 ASV - Or are ye ignorant that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?    We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.   For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection;   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;  

  Jhn 14:11 ASV - Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
Jhn 14:12 ASV - Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto the Father.
Jhn 14:16 ASV - And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever,
Jhn 14:17 ASV - 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.
Jhn 14:18 ASV - I will not leave you desolate: I come unto you.
Jhn 14:26 ASV - But the Comforter, even the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said unto you.     
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. 

Act 13:36 ASV - For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:
Act 13:37 ASV - but he whom God raised up saw no corruption.
Act 13:38 ASV - Be it known unto you therefore, brethren, that through this man is proclaimed unto you remission of sins:
Act 13:39 ASV - and by him every one that believeth is justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
Act 2:2 ASV - And suddenly there came from heaven a sound as of the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
Act 2:3 ASV - And there appeared unto them tongues parting asunder, like as of fire; and it sat upon each one of them.
Act 2:4 ASV - And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Act 2:2 ASV - And suddenly there came from heaven a sound as of the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
Act 2:3 ASV - And there appeared unto them tongues parting asunder, like as of fire; and it sat upon each one of them.
Act 2:4 ASV - And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

Jesus speaks of a comforter
Act 2:36 ASV - Let all the house of Israel therefore know assuredly, that God hath made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified.
Act 2:37 ASV - Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what shall we do?

Jhn 14:17 ASV - 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.
Jhn 14:18 ASV - I will not leave you desolate: I come unto you.
Jhn 14:26 ASV - But the Comforter, even the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said unto you.

The power to over come is in Christ Jesus and the beginning of our salvation is to be filled with the spirit of God from the day of Pentecost until this very day God is calling his people and he stands at the door and knocks . People are being filled this very day and walking in the power of God this is the promise of the father to those that believe .

Putting On The Righteous Garments Of The Saints

    Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven.    I was meditating  on this word of the great commandment of Jesus in Mark 16 the whole chapter is about the Death,  burial and the resurrection of Jesus  Christ  .   But starting with the verse 15 and to the end of the chapter is what I was looking at and trying to understand . I see this commandment is to every believer true believer of the word of his Gospel.  Paul said their will come others preaching another gospel .  
                                Jhn 10:1 ASV - Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
Jhn 10:2 ASV - But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
Jhn 10:7 ASV - Jesus therefore said unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
Jhn 10:8 ASV - All that came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
Jhn 10:9 ASV - I am the door; by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and go out, and shall find pasture.             Jhn 6:44 ASV - No man can come to me, except the Father that sent me draw him: and I will raise him up in the last day. Only through Christ Jesus can a man be saved he is the only door unto God his father .   Jesus said I am the vine and you are the branches
1Co 15:20 ASV - But now hath Christ been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of them that are asleep.
1Co 15:23 ASV - But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; then they that are Christ’s, at his coming.
Jas 1:18 ASV - Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.        Jhn 15:5 ASV - I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same beareth much fruit: for apart from me ye can do nothing.                                     I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.      "Husbandman," Himself as the Vine, His disciples as the branches, the object being to bear much fruit, life in Christ producing the fruit of the Spirit, i.e., character and ways in conformity to Christ.    The importance of this is that their are people today that have came and partook of this great truth but in time they have fallen away .   Yet we see that Jesus said we must bear much fruit   Ye did not choose me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that ye should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should abide: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.   Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and so shall ye be my disciples.     Eph 5:8 ASV - For ye were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord: walk as children of light
Eph 5:9 ASV - (for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth),  Obedience is the key here as to walking in the light of Gods word .  Jesus saith unto his disciples, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me.  Jesus is that door unto his Father , and we must come through that door to get to the father. 
Eph 5:10 ASV - proving what is well-pleasing unto the Lord;    Jesus said he was the way the truth and the light    Light Greek Phos        Man, naturally, is incapable of receiving spiritual light inasmuch as he lacks the capacity for spiritual things, 1Cr 2:14. Hence believers are called 'sons of light,' Luk 16:8, not merely because they have received a revelation from God, but because in the New Birth they have received the spiritual capacity for it.   Acts 2:38  Peter spoke the words of life in this world today when the men that heard his words and were broken in their hearts the word says they were pricked as a thorn to the heart . Pricked  Prick (Verb): primarily, "to strike or prick violently, to stun," is used of strong emotion, in Act 2:37  of the emotion of sorrow .      For godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation, a repentance which bringeth no regret: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

Mar 16:14 ASV - And afterward he was manifested unto the eleven themselves as they sat at meat; and he upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them that had seen him after he was risen.
Mar 16:15 ASV - And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation.  The Gospel  !    only one Gospel the good news
Mar 16:16 ASV - He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned.
Mar 16:17 ASV - And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues;
Mar 16:18 ASV - they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Mar 16:19 ASV - 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.
Mar 16:20 ASV - And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen.

Mat 7:22 ASV - Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by thy name, and by thy name cast out demons, and by thy name do many mighty works?
Mat 7:23 ASV - And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.  So I say to myself how is it that Jesus says he will reject a man or a woman that has manifisted these great gifts . It is because they have iniquity in their hearts.  I studied this as carefully as I could asking the Lord to show me in his word how this could happen .
Having the gifts as we read above or signs is not what will save us it is holiness and righteousness walking as Jesus walked   1Jo 2:4 ASV - He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;
1Jo 2:5 ASV - but whoso keepeth his word, in him verily hath the love of God been perfected. Hereby we know that we are in him:
1Jo 2:6 ASV - he that saith he abideth in him ought himself also to walk even as he walked.

Mat 22:14 ASV - For many are called, but few chosen.   Called  Greek: kletos  Call, Called, Calling:   "called, invited," is used,                                                                                                                                                                 Rev 19:7 ASV - Let us rejoice and be exceeding glad, and let us give the glory unto him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
Rev 19:8 ASV - And it was given unto her that she should array herself in fine linen, bright and pure: for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.   Mat 22:11 ASV - But when the king came in to behold the guests, he saw there a man who had not on a wedding-garment:
Mat 22:12 ASV - and he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding-garment? And he was speechless.   2Co 5:2 ASV - For verily in this we groan, longing to be clothed upon with our habitation which is from heaven:
2Co 5:3 ASV - if so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
Rev 19:9 ASV - And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they that are bidden to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are true words of God.

"of the call of the Gospel," Mat 20:16; 22:14, not there "an effectual call," as in the Epistles, Rom 1:1, 6, 7; 8:28; 1Cr 1:2, 24; Jud 1:1; Rev 17:14; in Rom 1:7; 1Cr 1:2 the meaning is "saints by calling;"
Chosen Greek: eklektos  Choice, Choose, Chosen:
akin to A, No. 1, signifies "chosen out, select," e.g., Mat 22:14; Luk 23:35; Rom 16:13 (perhaps in the sense of "eminent"); Rev 17:14. In 1Pe 2:4, 9, the RV translates it "elect."
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 firstfruits," an alternative reading in 2Th 2:13, see FIRSTFRUITS.
Luk 13:24 ASV - Strive to enter in by the narrow door: for many, I say unto you, shall seek to enter in, and shall not be able.  Rmembering Jesus is the door to the sheep fold there is no other way unto heaven except through Jesus the way the truth and the Life .   There is only one Gospel the good news and that is the words Jesus spoke to us in the scriptures .  This is about eternal salvation people this is the power of Gods word to save you or condemn you .

  1Pe 4:5 ASV - who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the living and the dead.
1Pe 4:6 ASV - For unto this end was the gospel preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
1Pe 4:7 ASV - But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore of sound mind, and be sober unto prayer:as we know it is slowly closing down , the end of all things is at hand .

The verse below could it be about people that did not consider the calling of God as a matter of life and death .      Jhn 6:63 ASV - It is the spirit that giveth life; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, and are life.
Phl 1:27 ASV - Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ: that, whether I come and see you or be absent, I may hear of your state, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the gospel;

The verses below are about people that did not consider the calling of God as a matter of life and death .     
Luk 13:25 ASV - When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, open to us; and he shall answer and say to you, I know you not whence ye are;
Luk 13:26 ASV - then shall ye begin to say, We did eat and drink in thy presence, and thou didst teach in our streets;
Luk 13:27 ASV - and he shall say, I tell you, I know not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
Luk 13:28 ASV - There shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and yourselves cast forth without.
 Mat 7:20 ASV - Therefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
Mat 7:21 ASV - Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven.   What is the will of the father to us today that live in this world of evil .  Rom 12:1 ASV - 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, that ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God . Mat 10:38 ASV - And he that doth not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.   Jesus is saying if we do not crucify this old man our flesh on our spiritual cross we will not be worthy of him .   Rom 8:6 ASV - For the mind of the flesh is death; but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace:   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:

Rom 13:11 ASV - And this, knowing the season, that already it is time for you to awake out of sleep: for now is salvation nearer to us than when we first believed.
Rom 13:12 ASV - The night is far spent, and the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.
Rom 13:13 ASV - Let us walk becomingly, as in the day; not in revelling and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and jealousy.
Rom 13:14 ASV - But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.

Mat 7:22 ASV - Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by thy name, and by thy name cast out demons, and by thy name do many mighty works?
Mat 7:23 ASV - And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Mat 7:24 ASV - Every one therefore that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them, shall be likened unto a wise man, who built his house upon the rock:
Mat 7:25 ASV - and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon the rock.
Mat 7:26 ASV - And every one that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand:
Mat 7:27 ASV - and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and smote upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall thereof.
Heb 6:4 ASV - For as touching those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit,
Heb 6:5 ASV - and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the age to come,
Heb 6:6 ASV - 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.
Heb 6:7 ASV - For the land which hath drunk the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them for whose sake it is also tilled, receiveth blessing from God:
Heb 6:8 ASV - but if it beareth thorns and thistles, it is rejected and nigh unto a curse; whose end is to be burned.
2Co 6:16 ASV - And what agreement hath a temple of God with idols? for we are a temple of the living God; even as God said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
2Co 6:17 ASV - Wherefore Come ye out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, And touch no unclean thing; And I will receive you,
2Co 6:18 ASV - And will be to you a Father, And ye shall be to me sons and daughters, saith the Lord   Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven.    I was meditating  on this word of the great commandment of Jesus in Mark 16 the whole chapter is about the Death,  burial and the resurrection of Jesus  Christ  .   But starting with the verse 15 and to the end of the chapter is what I was looking at and trying to understand . I see this commandment is to every believer true believer of the word of his Gospel.  Paul said their will come others preaching another gospel . 

     Jhn 10:1 ASV - Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
Jhn 10:2 ASV - But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
Jhn 10:7 ASV - Jesus therefore said unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
Jhn 10:8 ASV - All that came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
Jhn 10:9 ASV - I am the door; by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and go out, and shall find pasture.             Jhn 6:44 ASV - No man can come to me, except the Father that sent me draw him: and I will raise him up in the last day. Only through Christ Jesus can a man be saved he is the only door unto God his father .   Jesus said I am the vine and you are the branches
1Co 15:20 ASV - But now hath Christ been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of them that are asleep.
1Co 15:23 ASV - But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; then they that are Christ’s, at his coming.
Jas 1:18 ASV - Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.        Jhn 15:5 ASV - I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same beareth much fruit: for apart from me ye can do nothing.                                     I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.      "Husbandman," Himself as the Vine, His disciples as the branches, the object being to bear much fruit, life in Christ producing the fruit of the Spirit, i.e., character and ways in conformity to Christ.    The importance of this is that their are people today that have came and partook of this great truth but in time they have fallen away .   Yet we see that Jesus said we must bear much fruit   Ye did not choose me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that ye should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should abide: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.   Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and so shall ye be my disciples.     Eph 5:8 ASV - For ye were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord: walk as children of light

Eph 5:9 ASV - (for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth),  Obedience is the key here as to walking in the light of Gods word .  Jesus saith unto his disciples, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me.  Jesus is that door unto his Father , and we must come through that door to get to the father. 
Eph 5:10 ASV - proving what is well-pleasing unto the Lord;    Jesus said he was the way the truth and the light    Light Greek Phos        Man, naturally, is incapable of receiving spiritual light inasmuch as he lacks the capacity for spiritual things, 1Cr 2:14. Hence believers are called 'sons of light,' Luk 16:8, not merely because they have received a revelation from God, but because in the New Birth they have received the spiritual capacity for it.   Acts 2:38  Peter spoke the words of life in this world today when the men that heard his words and were broken in their hearts the word says they were pricked as a thorn to the heart . Pricked  Prick (Verb): primarily, "to strike or prick violently, to stun," is used of strong emotion, in Act 2:37  of the emotion of sorrow .      For godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation, a repentance which bringeth no regret: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

Mar 16:14 ASV - And afterward he was manifested unto the eleven themselves as they sat at meat; and he upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them that had seen him after he was risen.
Mar 16:15 ASV - And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation.  The Gospel  !    only one Gospel the good news
Mar 16:16 ASV - He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned.
Mar 16:17 ASV - And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues;
Mar 16:18 ASV - they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Mar 16:19 ASV - 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.
Mar 16:20 ASV - And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen.

Mat 7:22 ASV - Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by thy name, and by thy name cast out demons, and by thy name do many mighty works?
Mat 7:23 ASV - And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.  So I say to myself how is it that Jesus says he will reject a man or a woman that has manifested these great gifts . It is because they have iniquity in their hearts.?  I studied this as carefully as I could asking the Lord to show me in his word how this could happen .

Having the gifts as we read above or signs is not what will save us it is holiness and righteousness walking as Jesus walked   1Jo 2:4 ASV - He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;
1Jo 2:5 ASV - but whoso keepeth his word, in him verily hath the love of God been perfected. Hereby we know that we are in him:
1Jo 2:6 ASV - he that saith he abideth in him ought himself also to walk even as he walked.

Mat 22:14 ASV - For many are called, but few chosen.   Called  Greek: kletos  Call, Called, Calling:   "called, invited," is  used                                                                                                                                                                 Rev 19:7 ASV - Let us rejoice and be exceeding glad, and let us give the glory unto him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
Rev 19:8 ASV - And it was given unto her that she should array herself in fine linen, bright and pure: for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.   Mat 22:11 ASV - But when the king came in to behold the guests, he saw there a man who had not on a wedding-garment:
Mat 22:12 ASV - and he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding-garment? And he was speechless.   2Co 5:2 ASV - For verily in this we groan, longing to be clothed upon with our habitation which is from heaven:
2Co 5:3 ASV - if so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
Rev 19:9 ASV - And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they that are bidden to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are true words of God.

"of the call of the Gospel," Mat 20:16; 22:14, not there "an effectual call," as in the Epistles, Rom 1:1, 6, 7; 8:28; 1Cr 1:2, 24; Jud 1:1; Rev 17:14; in Rom 1:7; 1Cr 1:2 the meaning is "saints by calling;"
Chosen Greek: eklektos  Choice, Choose, Chosen:
akin to A, No. 1, signifies "chosen out, select," e.g., Mat 22:14; Luk 23:35; Rom 16:13 (perhaps in the sense of "eminent"); Rev 17:14. In 1Pe 2:4, 9, the RV translates it "elect."
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 firstfruits," an alternative reading in 2Th 2:13, see FIRSTFRUITS.

Luk 13:24 ASV - Strive to enter in by the narrow door: for many, I say unto you, shall seek to enter in, and shall not be able.  Remembering Jesus is the door to the sheep fold there is no other way unto heaven except through Jesus the way the truth and the Life .   There is only one Gospel the good news and that is the words Jesus spoke to us in the scriptures .  This is about eternal salvation people this is the power of Gods word to save you or condemn you .
  1Pe 4:5 ASV - who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the living and the dead.
1Pe 4:6 ASV - For unto this end was the gospel preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
1Pe 4:7 ASV - But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore of sound mind, and be sober unto prayer:as we know it is slowly closing down , the end of all things is at hand .

The verse below could it be about people that did not consider the calling of God as a matter of life and death .      Jhn 6:63 ASV - It is the spirit that giveth life; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, and are life.
Phl 1:27 ASV - Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ: that, whether I come and see you or be absent, I may hear of your state, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the gospel;
   
Luk 13:25 ASV - When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, open to us; and he shall answer and say to you, I know you not whence ye are;
Luk 13:26 ASV - then shall ye begin to say, We did eat and drink in thy presence, and thou didst teach in our streets;
Luk 13:27 ASV - and he shall say, I tell you, I know not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
Luk 13:28 ASV - There shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and yourselves cast forth without.
 Mat 7:20 ASV - Therefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
Mat 7:21 ASV - Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven.   What is the will of the father to us today that live in this world of evil .  Rom 12:1 ASV - 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, that ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God . Mat 10:38 ASV - And he that doth not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.   Jesus is saying if we do not crucify this old man our flesh on our spiritual cross we will not be worthy of him .   Rom 8:6 ASV - For the mind of the flesh is death; but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace:   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:

Rom 13:11 ASV - And this, knowing the season, that already it is time for you to awake out of sleep: for now is salvation nearer to us than when we first believed.

Rom 13:14 ASV - But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.

Mat 7:22 ASV - Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by thy name, and by thy name cast out demons, and by thy name do many mighty works?
Mat 7:23 ASV - And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Mat 7:24 ASV - Every one therefore that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them, shall be likened unto a wise man, who built his house upon the rock:
Mat 7:25 ASV - and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon the rock.
Mat 7:26 ASV - And every one that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand:

Heb 6:6 ASV - 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.
Heb 6:7 ASV - For the land which hath drunk the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them for whose sake it is also tilled, receiveth blessing from God:
Heb 6:8 ASV - but if it beareth thorns and thistles, it is rejected and nigh unto a curse; whose end is to be burned.
2Co 6:16 ASV - And what agreement hath a temple of God with idols? for we are a temple of the living God; even as God said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

Mat 13:24 ASV - Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man that sowed good seed in his field:  The good seed is Gods word preached out of the mouth of Jesus Christ to the world.      Luk 8:8 ASV - And other fell into the good ground, and grew, and brought forth fruit a hundredfold. As he said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Mat 13:25 ASV - but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares also among the wheat, and went away.   Slept Greek: katheudo  Asleep, Sleep:   of carnal indifference to spiritual things on the part of believers, Eph 5:14; 1Th 5:6, 10 (as in Mar 13:36), a condition of insensibility to Divine things involving conformity to the world .  

Mat 13:26 ASV - But when the blade sprang up and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
Mat 13:27 ASV - And the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field? whence then hath it tares?
     Sowing the good seed                   Greek: sperma  Seed: to 1Jo 3:9, "his seed abideth in him," it is possible to understand this as meaning that children of God (His "seed") abide in Him, and do not go on doing (practicing) sin (the verb "to commit" does not represent the original in this passage). Alternatively, the "seed" signifies the principle of spiritual life as imparted to the believer, which abides in him without possibility of removal or extinction; the child of God remains eternally related to Christ, he who lives in sin has never become so related, he has not the principle of life in him. This meaning suits the context and the general tenor of the Epistle.

Mat 13:28 ASV - And he said unto them, An enemy hath done this. And the servants say unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
Mat 13:29 ASV - But he saith, Nay; lest haply while ye gather up the tares, ye root up the wheat with them.
Mat 13:30 ASV - Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather up first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn.

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.
Act 2:39 ASV - 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.
                                                                                                                                                                             2Co 7:1 ASV - Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
