How to Win Heavenly CROWNS:
I Corinthians 9:24-27: Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes in to strict training. They do it to get a **CROWN** that will not last; but we do it to get a **CROWN THAT WILL LAST FOREVER**! Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize!
2 John 1:8: Watch out that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that you may be **REWARDED** fully!.

Sometimes you were publicly exposed to insult and persecution; at other times you stood side by side with those who were so treated. You sympathized with those in prison and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you yourselves had better and lasting possessions. So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly **REWARDED**. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you receive what He has promised!
Focusing on this worlds understanding of rewards means we are not loving in Gods love, who loves others not Himself, but the wisdom of this world understands only what is for themselves, but that will not b the way for the followers of Christ who did have to die to help us live, and many follow the ways of this world to gain things, but the meanings are revealed..
2 Peter 2:2 And MANY FOLLOW THEIR PERNICIOUS WAYS; by reason of whom THE WAY OF TRUTH SHALL BE EVIL SPOKEN OF.
3 And THROUGH COVETEOUSNESS shall they with feigned words MAKE MERCHANDISE OF YOU: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
Jude 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, UNGODLY MEN, TURNING THE GRACE OF OUR GOD INTO LASCIVIOUSNESS, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
Eternal Heavenly rewards for helping the poor is not what man wishes it should be..
Godliness is a mystery to man, but chastening comes every morning because of Gods Kingdom being within us, not for the evil we do, but for receiving the good, and that is our reward, rewarded with the Lord, although the persecution is no value to the ungodly.
When we give to the poor, what is being done? It is the Lord that we lend to, as it is the Lord that loves. We need to keep and walk in the love of the Lord, His Spirit is Holy which man sees through darkened unenlightened eyes..
Proverbs 19:17 He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.
Psalm 73:1 Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
3 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4 For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
5 They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
6 Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
7 Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
8 They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
9 They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
10 Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
11 And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?
12 Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.
13 Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
14 For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
15 If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.
16 When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;
17 Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.
18 Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
REWARDS IN HEAVEN?
Note, eternal life is in glory, the riches in Heaven are the glory of the Lord, your reward shall be what?
Isaiah 58:8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the GLORY OF THE LORD shall be thy REWARD
We do not declare what we look forward to, we declare all the works of the Lord, all is done for Him, but man does all he shows, for his own self and pleasure seeker which proves heir self glory they speak nothing o the glory of the Lord and are trapped as meant to be snared :)..
Psalm 73:23 Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand.
24 Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, AND AFTERWARD RECEIVE ME TO GLORY.
25 Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
26 My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.
27 For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whooring from thee.
28 But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord God, that I may declare all thy works.
Revelation 4:11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
Jeremiah 8:9 The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the word of the Lord; and what wisdom is in them?
2 Peter 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
Prophetic mentions crowns, mans understanding of crown is to receive a corrupt one, mans understanding of God is corrupt, but the crown is of thorns and Christ crucified is the true preaching. heir confession is they do not keep under their body and cant cease from sins, yet want you to follow the pernicious contentious selfish way they portray in Gods name..
Matthew 27:29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
1 Timothy 6:15 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
1 Corinthians 1:23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
1 Corinthians 9:25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
1 Peter 4:1 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;
2 Peter 2:14 Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:

Now increases the righteous teaching to be clown and worms. To call as a fool, told to do? Good if it was, it would be right and obedience to what is right, but to disobey and do wrong to continue after told not to do, to say you are a fool/clown, is it really so good or right in their eyes?
Proverbs 12:15 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.
Matthew 5:22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
This is still the real Christian life, the Gospel is forever, all else disappears fore ever..
Faith works by love. we see the love of this composition, is he loves to promote rewards through a list of epistle scriptures, and concludes by not highlighting where we are told faith is in pleasing God not in pleasing ourselves, and it pleases the Lord to reward us with life and not death, death in sins, life in the Son without sin.(this way promotes personal opinion that it is impossible to keep all of the commandments of Christ and to be holy.
Hebrews 11:1,3,6: So **FAITH** is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see...**BY FAITH** we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, in that what is seen was not made out of what was visible... Without **FAITH** it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He **REWARDS** those who earnestly seek Him!!
Matthew 16:27: Jesus says, �The Son of Man is going to come in His Father's glory with His angels and **THEN** He will **REWARD** each person according to what he has done!�
Then the ones who fail to keep all the ways of Christ do receive their reward, and the ones who keep the ways of Christ hear the Gospels FULL of WARNINGS and the JUDGEMENT S of CHRIST which this inventor cant avoid, here they are to complete what was incomplete..
Many had their hearts turned to have sensitivity like their children. Understanding their disobedient ways were unjust and to be ready to hear the Lord..
Luke 1:16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
Holy is the name of the Lord, who gives mercy to the ones who fear Him, and the proud He scatters away,
God who is mighty has put down the mighty from their high seats and raises up those who are low, filling the ones who hunger for righteousness with His Holy Spirit and the rich in spirit are sent away and emptied..
Luke 1:49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.
50 And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.
51 He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
52 He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
53 He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.
The Lords holy covenant, the promise to Abraham and to all through faith, delivered from fear of death.Hebrews 2:15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. Now without fear of death, serving the Lord in holiness and righteousness all the days of your life with Christ, the Lords ways being prepared first for us to follow, receiving the knowledge of His ways, sins taken away and light to take us out of darkness and the shadow of death which we sat in, guided top the way of peace through the Spirit of Christ unknown by this world and their ways..
Luke 1:72 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;
73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.
76 And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,
78 Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us,
79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
Straight is the way to the Lord God, the valleys are exalted and filled and the mountains and hills get brought low, crookedness is corrected straight, and all rough points are smoothened, that and all in the Gospel is the salvation of God..
Luke 3:4 As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth;
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
Is any man worthy of repentance? He opinions of the deceivers says no. It is still good fruit to help anyone who has need, when you do not need what you have...
Luke 3:8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
9 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?
11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.
The Spirit of the Lord came for this, to tel the Gospel to the poor(not anyone raised up they don't like the message to be low) to give healing words and hope to the broken in heart, freeing to the captives of the devils works of sin and hatred to others, light for darkness and power in the Lord through faith to do well in all things, that is acceptable to the Lord..
Luke 4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
The new Spirit is given and the body becomes new. People also prefer their same old self ways, and will not choose the better way because they cant believe in it..
Luke 5:37 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.
38 But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.
39 No man also having drunk old wine straightway desireth new: for he saith, The old is better.
Who can hear the Gospel of Christ? They love even their enemies,(they are false who say they do sins even against their brethren)� but you do good(never evil) to the ones who hate you! Bless and intreat for them. Let them take what they want from you (not for you to take off others by selfishness) loving more than others love you, not as sinners do, hop for nothing again, (not hoping for rewards as they promote) your reward is told, you shall be the children of the Highest, kind giving His life..
Luke 6:27 But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,
28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.
29 And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not to take thy coat also.
30 Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.
31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
32 For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.
33 And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.
34 And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.
35 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.
36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
The blind see in the light o the Lord, not darkened through satans deceit, they walk without stumbling at sin, cleaned from diseases hearts and blood purified, hearing the Gospel in an honest heart, given life from the death in sins and made rich through the word dwelling in us richly, and the liars are offended in the right ways of the Lord they try to make their way of thinking. Colossians 3:16..
John 7:22 Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.
23 And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.
Those who love much have much forgiven, others have little forgiveness given their way, because they have little love. Only those with love can understand God, for God is love, how cold anyone without great love inside of them understand God?
Luke 7:44 And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.
45 Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.
Salvation is a free gift, and without faithful hands, how can you receive it..
Luke 7:50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
The importance of the Gospel. If you hear and do not believe, you receive nothing, are saved by nothing.� To not endure temptation is not believing to the end and falling away, believing only for a while. Others heard, and again did not believe enough to overcome the cares of this life and the grace is not deep for them, other in a good heart bring forth fruits for the Lord, instead of all the other examples beliefs is for themselves, but the patience they bring is fruit of the Holy Ghost that belongs to God..
Luke 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
15 But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
IF, we are to follow after Christ, it is the cross you must take up. Think about that, how the ones here are opposite to this, they have pride in their hands only. Forget about our lives as all people of the world do already, it is hardly the way to Christs holiness,� you will only lose yourself and be cast away, trying to gain as much as you think you should. This life's ways are shameful, and if we are ashamed to live instead the way of Heaven, we will feel the shame later and forever as this was the glory of the Lords ways..
Luke 9:23 And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.
Satan as lightening, and Christ gave us power to defeat all serpents and scorpions, the enemy of God working darkness, but the high example of Christ again is, for powers to be not our focus at all, only for your name to be written in Heaven, to live and not die, but this is hidden from the wise and prudent, they cant agree, the Lords way is good and the babes love them, who have all revealed to them by the Father, or we know� not a thing..
Luke 10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.
22 All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.
The ones without love who seek to be saved without knowing it is love we are saved by, love their neighbour or love themselves? The ones who seek reward after they have hurt their neighbour, sometimes small hurt and sins they do against another, they were good to their neighbour or no? Maybe it is the ones who shew mercy, are the ones who love their neighbour as themselves..
Luke 10:36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?
37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
The disciples asked Jesus to show them how to pray. Then Jesus shows us, what we have need of, we will receive, it is mans way that fails to give to us what we need. The fathers give to their children what they need, and it is revealed how the Lord God gives all His children all they need to serve Him, which is the Holy Ghost. Then we know how to pray, what to pray for, and how to do well to others instead of the flesh way that does not give and keeps taking of of others..
Luke 11:5 And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves;
6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him?
7 And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee.
8 I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth.
9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?
12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?
13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
Look with me, at the example of the deceivers here. They say, they walk in the light of the Lord, but daily fail that light, and are forgiven by God for it. Is that seeing the Light of God? Is it really a light worth seeing, that is being darkened at times under a bushel? To be only light is to be full of light, to have evil is to be filled with darkness. The whole body must be full of light, having n part dark ever, to be ta bright shining light of the Lord, because that is how a candle gives light..
Luke 11:33 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.
34 The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.
35 Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.
36 If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.
Beware of hypocrisy, there is no hypocrisy in the Lord. The Lord is light, nothing is covered, nothing remains darkness, all is revealed and nothing is reserved to be known by false prophets...
Luke 12:12 In the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.
3 Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.
Take it in, nothing to fear in this life, or be concerned with. Contented with trust in God, hot building up. Fearing God, not exalted without fear, that means you fall. But God you can understand through faith(we are called by faith or by nothing) will not forget what we need, and we cannot trust ourselves or we die, so we do not fear what we want for ourselves, we fear God instead in your trust..
Luke 12:4 And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.
6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?
7 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
Beware of coveteousness?
Luke 12:13 And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.
14 And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?
15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
The rich, rich in possession, rich in seeking riches, rich in pride.� Comforting themselves, that reveals their character. Treasure for yourself, is when you do not lay up treasure for God, do you see words to be rich toward yourself? Or, do you see the testimony to be rich toward God?
Luke 12:16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
Now if we are a servant of God, we seek to serve God, or what we receive from our service? The Lords will is preparing ourselves through love for other, not ourselves, and holiness not being defiled through not being altogether holy. Many stripes, much is required when we know what we should be doing and still do not obey..
Luke 12:47 And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.
48 But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.
The hypocrites who say they believe in God can discern many things. They do not judge rightly in the Lords ways. Gods judgement is just, for doing unjustly we will be delivered to the magistrate and the judge, and the Lord delivers us to that officer who flies to give the sentence of the King, and hell is the everlasting prison. Are the warnings to be ignored and you to be not ignored by the Lord God?
Luke 12:56 Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time?
57 Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right?
58 When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate, as thou art in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison.
59 I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou hast paid the very last mite.
A Christian forum and they resist the Gospel? Unless you repent you shall perish. That makes clear how to hear, and how you are not hearing..
Luke 13:13 There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
2 And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things?
3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
4 Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?
5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
God wants HIs planting of the Lord, (us?) to bear much fruit...Isaiah 61:3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified. hat do you expect will happen to every tree that is not righteousness enough to glorify the Lord? Why would we expect a tree that bears evil fruit at times is any good for God? If we do not bear fruit, and good ONLY, it is cut down, and the ones who even preach the message promote evil fruit too, and they are a planting of God?
Luke 13:6 He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.
7 Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?
8 And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:
9 And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.
Strive in what? In promoting grace and no love for others is your grace? In rewards for ourselves, this is what type of Heaven that Christ is, to love others not Himself to them? Or the way is straight, it is the way of some iniquity? Or it is straight, and contains nothing that is remotely crooked or turning? Thrust out when you see the ones who obey the Lord fulfilling His will enter in?
Luke 13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
25 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, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:
26 Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.
27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
28 There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.
Saved by grace not works, that has to be preached, which is NOT preached in the Gospel of Christ? Saved by saying you are saved, and then by the rewards you can get? Is it not saved instead by Heavens righteous way, sit lowest, go higher only if called to step up?
Luke 14:8 When thou art bidden of any man to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him;
9 And he that bade thee and him come and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room.
10 But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee.
11 For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
here is the example of repenting,� not worthy to be called His son. The father receives us in humility which is repentence, we are dead without it, lost and this is how the Shepherd found His lost sheep, who were lost in disobedience..
Luke 15:21 And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.
22 But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:
23 And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:
24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
How does anyone these days hear the Gospel? To be unjust in anything, is not a little, it is everything. To be faithful at all, means you will be faithful in all, because you do all or nothing. We are required to be faithful in this world, or we do not last long in positions of responsibility. Do we really believe we do not have to be beyond what this world knows of faithfulness? The true riches not only are having the Lord with you which is life, they are too good for this world to ever know. You serve God or this world, no mixture of both, and if you are favoured in this life, you really are abomination in the sight of God, so change it all around to be perfect..
Luke 16:10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
12 And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?
13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.
Since the Kingdom of Heaven was shared to this world, all try to enter, good and mostly not good enough. We do not fail to enter by trying to gain the Lords help by belief in His perfect ways He has done and shown us, we fail because we try to enter in some other lower way we decided was all we had to offer...
Luke 16:16 The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.
17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.
Rich and poor. The experience of the poor begging for what we might receive. The rich mans heart and mind: has all he could wish for, happy and glad and looks forward to Heavenly reward for this wolds way of believing he should be. The begger expected nothing and received all, the rich got what he lived by, being mercy for himself, not for the other, God gives good to those who do good but cannot do or consider good for themselves, as beggers, and torment to the ones who comfort themselves, yes that is the rich in whatever way we live richly to ourselves and not rich towards God instead...
Luke 16:19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
Another reproof and rebuke to the resisters/deceivers. Take heed for all to repent. Their faith needed increasing to know what is right, and it would be increased to do all works of the Lord through the Holy Spirit given. But, should you focus as they lyingly try to invent, for us to focus on thanks and reward? Maybe, just maybe, it is better to hear Christ if we believe in His word of life, when we obey who is over us in this life, we do it as we must do it, and when we obey God it is the very same way, what fool refuses to say after they have done ALL of the thin gs commanded them, that they are,UNPROFITABLE SERVANTS, DOING WHAT IS THEIR DUTY TO DO..
Luke 17:3 Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.
4 And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him.
5 And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.
6 And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.
7 But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat?
8 And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?
9 Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I trow not.
10 So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.
The Pharisees believe the same way as the prophets still tell today, that the Kingdom of God should come for them to see it.(it had come and they did no even see it in front of them) They do not have to say, lo here is Christ or there is Christ, He is already there inside of you, this is why you know they are pretenders.(total irony as anything they presume to have over others to deceive them with is all gone and exposes them by their evil they cant resist to "deceive" anyway) So when they say, see here or see there, there is nothing to see. All is clear enough to see without them saying they see for you :)
Luke 17:20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
22 And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it.
23 And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them.
24 For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.
Do grace only people and prophets realize, the whole Gospel is more than their tiny ones they want us to share in with them, and all is one message, everybody on earth lives as they always have, living their lives no matter what they hear to not do that, because the same as everybody's lives were taken away, they will be taken away again. This is what is to be revealed, just the same as it was before, nothing for anybody to notice, as they would have repented before it was too late, which they did not and do not. Seeking to save your life is what all did and all do, living your life the way you want to live it, and by even more selfishness to think God rewards you for it, it cant be more empty wrong and prideful. That is why the Gospel is first preached among all nations and then the end comes, only so it is told and refused to be heard. They ask where? Where is told, where the body that believes us, that is where the angels go to, why would they go to anywhere else?
Luke 17:26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.
31 In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.
32 Remember Lot's wife.
33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.
34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.
35 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.
Can we imagine the grace only preacher, the prosperity preachers, the rewards in heaven preachers/deceptive fierce prophets preaching in this fully opened warning style? No we cannot, they resist it and despise it and stand against it when they pretend to be all for it. But humility can confess all that the Gospel contains we need desperately, and limited opinion of man we need no more. Do we see them conforming this word of the Lord or they confirm nothing at all?
The judges and people of this world fear not God. They do anything good when they have no choices. God does all faithful, because His Spirit is just and right, we need to think who we follow. Christ shows the elect cry day and night to Him, but in the end now that is corrupted, is there faithful ones left?
Luke 18:2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:
3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.
4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;
5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.
6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.
7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?
8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
Confirming the above word of the Lord..The elect who cry day and night to Him. We see those same ones cried with a loud voice saying: How long until the Holy true Lord avenges them? Jesus asked when He returns shall He find faith on the earth, because in this end now, He said He comes while they are living their lives and knew not until the flood came, and even thus, shall it be in the day the Son of man is revealed..
Revelation 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
Continuing how there are no faithful to hear now, or they would hear loudly the message, is not to lift yourselves up, it is to bow down.(do they teach that here on this forum, not one little bit and teach self ) Whomsoever will HUMBLE himself, God will exalt those, and if we have exalted ourselves, God will abase us..Proverbs 12:9 He that is despised, and hath a servant, is better than he that honoureth himself, and lacketh bread. 2 Corinthians 10:18 FOR NOT HE THAT COMMENDETH HIMSELF IS APPROVED, but whom the Lord commendeth. We do not enter in unless as a little child..
Luke 18:9 And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:
10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
15 And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
16 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
17 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.
or leaving all what do we receive? We receive persecutions in this life which we must endure or have no faithfulness inside of us, and if we look or what is to come, it is what we do not have now, life everlasting.
Luke 18:28 Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.
29 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake,
30 Who shall not RECEIVE manifold more in this present time, and IN THE WORLD TO COME LIFE EVERLASTING.
"The ones born of God therefore, **SIN NOT**"{???} Adam7777 also claims that we are completely sanctified and **NO LONGER SIN** the very moment we are saved.{???}
Joyce Meyer also claims that she **NO LONGER SINS** in this taped message:
�I�m going to tell you something folks, I didn�t stop sinning until I finally got it through my thick head I wasn�t a sinner anymore. And the religious world thinks that�s heresy and they want to hang you for it. But the Bible says that I�m righteous and I can�t be righteous and be a sinner at the same time � All I was ever taught to say was, �I�m a poor, miserable sinner.� I am not poor, I am not miserable and I am not a sinner. That is a lie from the pit of hell. That is what I was and if I still am then Jesus died in vain. Amen?�
**HOWEVER, WE ARE COMMANDED TO **WALK AS JESUS WALKED** {SEE JOHN 2:6} AND TO BE HOLY **AS GOD IS HOLY** {SEEI PETER 1;15,16], WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE, AND SO WE SIN DAILY. AND WE SHOULD **DAILY** ASK GOD TO FORGIVE US OUR SINS AND PURIFY US FROM ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS**!!
I John 2:6: Whoever claims to live in Him **MUST** live as Jesus did!!
The following Words of God are not found in the Bibles of Joyce Meyer and Adam7777:
I John 1:8-10: If we claim to be without sin {Like Joyce Meyer and Adam7777}, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. **IF WE CLAIM WE HAVE NOT SINNED {Like Adam7777} WE MAKE HIM OUT TO BE A LIAR AND HIS WORD IS NOT IN US**!!
Luke 11:1-4: The **DISCIPLES** asked Jesus, "Lord teach as to pray." Jesus replied **TO HIS DISCIPLES**, "When you pray, say: '**FATHER**, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come. Give us each day our **DAILY** bread. **FORGIVE US OUR SINS**, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us!'" {Adam7777, Joyce Meyer and Satan refuse to ask forgiveness for their sins!}
Matthew 18:21,22: Peter asked Jesus, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive **MY BROTHER** who sins against me?" Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times but seventy seven times!" {77 times can also be translated 70 times 7 or 490 times!!}
**IF WE DO NOT ASK THE FATHER IN JESUS NAME TO FORGIVE US OUR SINS AND REPENT OF OUR SINS GOD WILL DISCIPLINE US**!!
Revelation 3:19: Jesus says, "Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline, so be earnest and repent!!"
Hebrews 12:5-11: Do not make light of the Lord's discipline, and do not lose heart when He rebukes you, because the Lord disciplines those He loves, and He chastens **EVERYONE** {Like Peter and David} He accepts as a son! Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as His children. For what children are not disciplined by their father? IF YOU ARE NOT DISCIPLINED AND **EVERYONE** UNDERGOES DISCIPLINE--THEN YOU ARE NOT LEGITMATE--NOT TRUE SONS AND DAUGHTERS AT ALL**!! Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live! They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in His holiness. No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it!
Matthew 16:21-23: From that time on Jesus began to tell His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and that He must be killed and on the third day be raised to life. Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him. "Never, Lord!" he said. "This shall never happen to you!" Jesus turned and said to Peter, "Get behind Me Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me, you do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns!"
Matthew 26:33-35: Peter said to Jesus, "Even if all fall away on account of You, I never will!" Jesus answered, "Truly I tell you this very night , before the rooster crows, you will deny Me 3 times!' But Peter declared, "Even if I have to die with You, I will never disown you!"
Matthew 26:69-75: Now Peter was sitting in the courtyard, and a servant girl came to him. "You also were with Jesus of Galilee," she said. But Peter denied it before them all. "I don't know what you are talking about," he said. Then Peter went out to the gateway, where another servant girl saw him and said to the people there, "This fellow was with Jesus of Nazareth." Peter denied it again, with an oath: "I don't know the man!" After a little while, those standing there went up to Peter and said. "Surely you are one of them, your accent gives you away." Then Peter began to call down curses, and swore to them, "I don't know the man." Immediately a rooster crowed. Then Peter remembered the words Jesus had spoken. "Before the rooster crows you will disown Me 3 times!" And Peter went outside and wept bitterly.
Galatians 2:11-16,19,21: When Peter came to Antioch I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned. For before certain men came James, he used to eat with the Gentiles. But when they arrived he began to draw back and separate himself from the Gentiles because he was afraid of those who belonged to the circumcision group. The other Jews joined him in his hypocrisy, so that by their hypocrisy even Barnabas was led astray. When I saw that they were not acting in line with the truth of the Gospel, I said to Peter in front of them all. "You are a Jew, yet you live like a Gentile and not like a Jew. How is it then, that you force Gentiles to follow Jewish customs? We who are Jews by birth and not sinful Gentiles know that a person is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law, because by the works of the law no one will be justified." ... "For through the law I died to the law so that I might live for God....I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!!"
And yet God chose Peter to preach the sermon when 3,000 Jews were saved on the Day of Pentecost and is mentioned doing good works 70 times in the book of Acts. God also inspired Peter to write two wonderful books in the God's Word named I Peter and 2 Peter!!
I John 1:8-10: If we claim to be without sin {Like Joyce Meyer and Adam7777}, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. **IF WE CLAIM WE HAVE NOT SINNED {Like Adam7777} WE MAKE HIM OUT TO BE A LIAR AND HIS WORD IS NOT IN US**!!
Luke 11:1-4: The **DISCIPLES** asked Jesus, "Lord teach as to pray." Jesus replied **TO HIS DISCIPLES**, "When you pray, say: '**FATHER**, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come. Give us each day our **DAILY** bread. **FORGIVE US OUR SINS**, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us!'" {Adam7777, Joyce Meyer and Satan refuse to ask forgiveness for their sins!}
When we accuse the Holy Apostles of being sinners, to excuse ourselves for being sinners, is that right of us? The Apostles are given the mystery's of God, accusers are not, they might seem as deceivers but the Holy Apostles are not, it is the false accusers that securely are, who give evil report against the ones who are right in the Lord..2 Corinthians 6:8 By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true;
Peter the steward of the Lord was found faithful not unfaithful, and no man has right to judge who the Lord has approved, proving their falseness and we can recover the truth easily enough..
1 Corinthians 4: Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.
2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.
3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.
Peter was to be blamed for what he had been doing, (not accused of sinning) Peter withdrew from the Gentiles company fearing the Jews disapproval, because clearly as yet, the Lord had not shown to Peter and to all people, how the Gentiles are not cleaned, and there is no need in the Jewish law to any longer separate from men who are non Jews, ( they were also not told as yet about the question of circumcision.) Peter clearly is NOT a sinner of the Gentiles. Peter knew these things as the Lord had revealed this to him also and Apostle Paul clarified the situation before the believers who had to learn this mystery from the Lord..
Galatians 2:11 But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.
12 For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision.
13 And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.
14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?
15 We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,
Before Apostle Paul was making clear the wrong Peter and the others had done through no revelation from the Lord, Peter had this vision from the Lord, of God cleaning the Gentiles, and Peter understood the vision as the Gentiles were then sent to Peter to preach to them and Peter confessed his own lack of previous understanding of how it was UNLAWFUL for Peter a Jew, to keep company with one of another nation, but God showed Peter that no man is unclean any longer, but in every nation, he that fears God and works righteousness is accepted with Him, Peter had kept that law for the Jews but found it impossible to keep when men of all nations want to hear about Christ from Peter and are called to Christ in union with Apostle Peter but the believing Pharisee Jews did not approve(it is the Pharisee believers that wanted circumcision for Gentiles, not Peter as accuser says)
Acts 10:15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
16 This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.
17 Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made enquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate,
Acts 10:30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
31 And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee.
33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.
Acts 10:28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
Acts 10:34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I� PERCEIVE that God is no respecter of persons:
35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
Acts 15:5 But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.
Before the sinners are converted, and are erring from the truth, they need to confess to hide the multitude of sins. After converted and those sins are hidden, it is ridiculous to continue the process as if nothing was achieved or changed, pure wicked reasoning that has no place in the daylight.
James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.
18 And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.
19 Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him;
20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.
As for repenting, of course some have not repented yet, others had repented, they kept the word of Christ, they kept His patience, they did not need to repent or would have been told to, but told to keep what they had through what they had done..
Revelation 3:8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
These others had chastening because they needed to repent, they had kept nothing, and SEE, we are judged as succeeding or failing according to our works, needing to repent or we HAVE REPENTED to receive salvation..
Revelation 3:15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
Are we CLEAR what repentence is? It is not to be repented of. Repenting is clearing of ourselves of the wrong, it is fear of the Lord to not repeat, indignation against the devil to sin not, with great desire and zeal to follow the Lord rightly in all things, be ye angry and sin not, let all evil be put away completely, be with indignation and wrath against the devil who wants us to die in sins, be kind and forgive who still does the wrong, because Christ has forgiven us we do not need to pray any longer for it but need to walk in it..
2 Corinthians 7:10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
11 For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.
Ephesians 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
27 Neither give place to the devil.
28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:
32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
