Jesus says, "Teach them to **OBEY EVERYTHING** I commanded!"
Posted : 1 Aug, 2011 12:33 PM
READ GOD'S WORD DAILY **THEN** DO WHAT IT SAYS!!
Psalm 1:1,2: �Blessed is the man:rolleyes: who delights in the law of the Lord, and on His law he meditates **DAY and NIGHT**.�
Acts 17:11: The Bereans received the message with great eagerness:rolleyes: and examined the Scriptures **EVERY DAY*!!�
THE GREAT COMMISSION:
Matthew 28:19,20: Jesus says, �Go and make disciples of all nations...teaching them to ***OBEY EVERYTHING*** I have commanded you!!�
Unfortunately many evangelical churches only preach how to be saved after saying their prepared sinner's prayer and never teach that we should OBEY ALL THE COMMANDS OF JESUS and all the Words in the the inspired NT.
John 14:23,24: Jesus says, �If anyone:rolleyes: loves Me he will **OBEY MY TEACHING**, My Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our home with him!! He who does no love Me will not obey my teaching!!�
I John 2:3-5: We know that we have come to know Him {Jesus} if we **OBEY HIS COMMANDS**. The man who says, �I know Him,� but does not do what He commands is a liar and the truth is not in him. But if anyone **OBEYS HIS WORD**, God's love is truly made complete in Him!!�
Deuteronomy 18:17-19: The Lord said to Moses, I will raise up a for them {Israel} a Prophet like you from among their brothers; I will put My words in His mouth, and he will tell them everything I command Him. If anyone does not listen to My words that the Prophet speaks in My Name, I Myself will call him to account!!"
James 1:22,25: Do not merely listen to the Word, and so deceive yourselves. **DO WHAT IT SAYS**!!...The man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, **BUT DOING IT**--he will be blessed in what he does!!�
It is certainly hard lately to find a church with people who really love and obey and are on fire for Jesus. Very often even evangelical churches teach that if you pray the sinner's prayer and accept Jesus as your Savior you will receive a free pass to eternal life and God forbid that you should suffer financial hardship or persecution or tribulation or obey all the commands of Jesus.
This certainly helps church membership and teaches varying degrees of the Satanic Prosperity Gospel at the expense of the Truth. Many Satanic churches also have women preachers which absolutely contradicts God's Word in I Timothy 2:9,10 and I Corinthians 14:33,34.
Many slick evangelical churches who continually seek to increase church membership will even give you a copy of the sinner's prayer and will guarantee that by saying this prayer out loud it will automatically give you eternal salvation in heaven.
Revelation 22:16-18: �I, Jesus have sent My angel to give you {The Greek for you is plural} this testimony {All of Revelation} **FOR THE CHURCHES**!!
�I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone **ADDS** anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book {Which includes eternal torment in hell as per Rev 14:10,11;19:20; 20:10} And if anyone **TAKES WORDS AWAY** from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the Tree of Life and in the Holy City, {The New Jerusalem} which are described in this book!!�
Unfortunately, many churches continually ADD and TAKE WORDS AWAY from God's Word and do not declare the whole counsel of God as He commanded.
I Thessalonians 2:13: �We thank God continually because, when you received the Word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as it actually is **THE WORD OF GOD**, which is at work in you who believe!!�
2 Timothy 3:16: �All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work!!�
There are about 400 do's and don'ts in the NT of God's Word to be obeyed with love just as Jesus loved us {See John 13:34 & John 15:13!!} with the hope of countless eternal *REWARDS* for faithful and loving service!~!
Revelation 22:12: Jesus says, �Behold, I am coming soon! My **REWARD** is with Me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done!!�
2 Corinthians 5:9,10: "So we make it our goal to please Him..For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him {**UNSEEN REWARDS & TREASURES**} for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad!"
Matthew 16:27: Jesus says, For the Son of Man is going to come in His **FATHER'S GLORY WITH HIS ANGELS*{See Matt 24:30-31;25:31-40 & 2 Thess 1:6-10!!}, and **THEN** He will *REWARD* each person according to what he has done."
Jesus says in Rev 2:17; 3:4, 5, 21: �To him who overcomes...I will give a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to him who receives it:rolleyes:.....He will walk with Me for he is worthy:rolleyes:... I will acknowledge his name before My Father and His angels.... I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem.....I will write on him my New Name... and I will give him the right to sit with Me on My throne, just as I overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.�
So Salvation is a 100% FREE GIFT as per Ephesians 2:8,9 and {**UNSEEN**} eternal *REWARDS* for God's faithful and loving saints are 100% earned!
I Peter 1:13: �Therefore, prepare your minds for *ACTION*, and set your hope *FULLY* on the {**UNSEEN**} grace to be given *YOU* when Jesus Christ is *REVEALED*.:applause::angel:

Mr Nobody:
Some translations have used the English word 'OBEY'
as Profit has posted;
Yet the Greek word in these Scriptures does not actually mean to 'OBEY'.
Let us look now at this Greek Word,it is the word 'tereo'
continue (1), guard (1), guards (1), heed (2), heeds (1), held in custody (1), keep (27), keep watch over (1), keeping (1), keeping guard over (1), keeps (9), kept (12), kept in custody (3), observe (3), preserve (1), preserved (1), reserved (4), watching over (1).

hold fast, keep
From teros (a watch; perhaps akin to theoreo); to guard (from loss or injury, properly, by keeping the eye upon; and thus differing from phulasso, which is properly to prevent escaping; and from koustodia, which implies a fortress or full military lines of apparatus), i.e. To note (a prophecy; figuratively, to fulfil a command); by implication, to detain (in custody; figuratively, to maintain); by extension, to withhold (for personal ends; figuratively, to keep unmarried); by extension, to withhold (for personal ends; figuratively, to keep unmarried) -- hold fast, keep(- er), (pre-, re-)serve, watch.
If the Word 'OBEY' is the correct translation,then the word 'Obey' would have to be used whereever the Greek word 'tereo' has been used in the original manuscripts.
Let us take a look at a few verses of Scripture,where this will no be making good sense.
Rev 3:10 Because you kept (tereo) the Word of My patience, I also will keep (tereo) you out of the hour of trial which is going to come on all the habitable world in order to try those dwelling on the earth.
You 'OBEYED' the word of My patience.
I will 'OBEY' you out of the trial.
There are many places where the English has butchered the
Greek texts,and have actually misinterperetted the Scriptures doing this.
This is the reason,i believe the believers need to be using the Greek text to learn the Word of GOD from,and not the English versions.
Be as the Bereans;Always go to the source of the information.
I hope that everyone has a Blessed and safe week/weekend
Shalom
Mr.Nobody
ps:
I believe Christians are to be under the Word of GOD,
Yet we are not to be changing the Word,and the meaning just to bring others into bondage,or to keep them from knowing the truths therein.

George it is understood you can not be a doer, and not be obedient, as a matter of fact most are disobedient in that they interpret the word of God, in lieu of believing it.

@Phil:
1Sa 15:22 And Samuel said, Does Jehovah delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as in obeying the voice of Jehovah? Behold! Obeying is better than sacrifice; to give attention is better than the fat of rams.
Phil the evidence is mounting against you.
You continue trusting in the words of men,instead of the Word of GOD.
You sacrifice hearing the Word of GOD,all the while giving heed unto the words of men.
Phil, as long as YHWH gives you breath in your lungs there is hope for you.
Repent,believe the Gospel.
Mar 1:14 And after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom of God,
Mar 1:15 and saying, The time has been fulfilled, and the kingdom of God draws near. Repent and believe in the gospel.

After reading or should I say Weeding through all that Greek Jibberish posted I thought it best to post it simple. The Original word Obey/ing is in Hebrew the Language of the Israel Jew. Obey/ing Hebrew 8085/86 Shama & occures numerous times through out the Bible...:peace: out...xo
