**IS GIVING **PRAISE** AND **GLORY** TO GOD THE FATHER AND OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE NEW COVENANT**??
**WHAT DOES GOD'S WORD SAY**??
Luke 2:20: The shepherds returned, **GLORIFYING* and **PRAISING GOD** for all the things they had heard and seen!
Luke 2:14: Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, **PRAISING GOD** and saying, "**GLORY TO GOD** in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom His favor rests!"
John 1:14: The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen **HIS GLORY**, the **GLORY** of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth!!!
John 11:40: Jesus says, "Did I not tell you that if you believe, you will see the **GLORY OF GOD**!!"
John 15:8: Jesus says, "This is to My **FATHER'S GLORY**, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be My disciples!"
Romans 4:20,21: Abraham did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave **GLORY TO GOD**, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what He had promised!
Romans 5:1,2: Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the **GLORY OF GOD**!!
I Corinthians 10:31: So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, **DO IT **ALL** FOR THE **GLORY** OF GOD**!!
2 Corinthians 3:9-11,18: If the ministry that brought condemnation was **GLORIOUS**, how much more **GLORIOUS** is the ministry that brings righteoousness!! For what was **GLORIOUS** has no glory now in comparison with the **SURPASSING GLORY**! And if what is transitory came with **GLORY** how much greater is the the **GLORY OF THAT WHICH LASTS**!... And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the **LORD'S GLORY**, are being transformed into His image with **EVER INCREASING GLORY**, which comes from the Lord!
2 Corinthians 4:15-18: All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause **THANKSGIVING** to overflow to the **GLORY OF GOD**! Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an **ETERNAL GLORY** that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is tempoary, but on what is **UNSEEN IS **ETERNAL**!
Ephesians 1:12-14: In Him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of Him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of His will, in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the **PRAISE OF HIS GLORY**!! And you were also included in Christ when you heard the message of Truth, the Gospel of your salvation. When you believed you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession--to the **PRAISE OF HIS GLORY**!!
Philippians 1:9-11: And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth an insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameness for the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ--to the **GLORY AND PRAISE OF GOD**!!
2 Corinthians 11:31: Through Jesus, therefore, let us **CONTINUALLY** offer to God a sacrifice of **PRAISE**--the fruit of lips that openly profess His name!!
I Peter 4:10,11: Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks they should do so as one who speaks the very Words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things **GOD MAY BE PRAISED** through Jesus Christ. To Him be the **GLORY** and power for ever and ever!! Amen.
Philippians 2:9-11: Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the **GLORY OF GOD THE FATHER**! {This will happen on the Last Day!}
2 Peter 3:18: But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be **GLORY BOTH NOW AND FOREVER**! Amen!
Revelation 5:9,10,12,13: "You are worthy to take the scroll and open its seals, because You were slain, and with Your blood you purchased for God persons from every tribe and language and people and nation. ... "Worthy is the **LAMB**, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and **GLORY AND PRAISE**! To Him who sits on the throne and to the **LAMB** be **PRAISE** and honor and **GLORY** and power for ever and ever!!"
prophetic proves his lack of light and modern false prophetic heresy, by supporting the niv which adds to the word of God...
Niv.."2 Corinthians 3:9-11,18: If the ministry that brought condemnation was **GLORIOUS**, how much more **GLORIOUS** is the ministry that brings righteoousness!! For what was **GLORIOUS** has no glory now in comparison with the **SURPASSING GLORY**! And if what is transitory came with **GLORY** how much greater is the the **GLORY OF THAT WHICH LASTS**!... And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the **LORD'S GLORY**, are being transformed into His image with **EVER INCREASING GLORY**, which comes from the Lord!"
Niv.. 2 Corinthians 3:16 But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate[a] the Lord�s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
First false opinion of prophetic today(it is every time and every day) is leaving off the verses needed to explain what the Lord is saying here. prophetic should have begun at 3:7, but only begins where he wants at 3:9. The first covenant had such glory that the children of Israel could not even see the face of Moses, shining so brightly. That was a glory that is superceeded, which included failure for man, who still sinned, still needed to pray forgiveness for their sins(had no law written in their heart and could not keep to the righteousness of the Lord until the new covenant and glory is given..
2 Corinthians 3:7 But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away:
8 How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?
Now the Lord gives His Spirit to us, )or exactly how is it more glorious unless we are actually Holy?) now we see as in a glass, clearly, straight though the glass, and we are made by the Spirit into the SAME IMAGE, BY THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD, CORRECTLY TOLD HERE FROM GLORY TO GLORY..
2 Corinthians 3:17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
Continues, that which is PERFECT IS COME, (the Lords Spirit and the love of God) 1 John 4:12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
We know all, as He told us all things, we were as sheep and children going astray, now we return to the bishop of our souls, we were under a tutor(the law) to bring us to God, now we are no longer children but are in Christ and put away schooling, now we do not part understand, now we understand as all was told to us, now we see FACE TO FACE, AND WE KNOW AS THE LORD KNOWS US CLEARLY..
1 Corinthians 13:9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
Sown in corruption( dying in sins) raised in incorruption(dead to sin to be alive to God or cannot be alive to God) dishonour in the things we are now ashamed of(apart from prophetic of course, displays no shame) sown in weakness not able to do the things we would, raised by the power of God and we can do all things through Christ strengthening us, now given the Spiritual body, as the last Adam, is the quickening Spirit(, all who are really given the Holy Spirit) the first man savours the things of the earth, but the born again is only for the Spirit, which is the Lord from Heaven in us, seeing all of that, or seeing nothing still..
1 Corinthians 15:42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven.
48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly..
Galatians 4:1 Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
Galatians 3:23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
Only the Spirit in us is not seen, the same Kingdom of Heaven that is already in us and without sin, darkness or evil, it cannot be in the same place..
John 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
2 Corinthians 4:18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
Luke 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
So prophetics and friends, curse inwardly, their delight is in lies, or they would confess the truth they see here, and cannot speak against it one bit ever, power belongs to God, power to give us salvation, not weakness so we cant attain to it, but mercy belongs to God, and glory is in knowing that the Lord is the ROCK OF YOUR STRENGTH, and you receive what you believed, in overcoming the world as Christ did or of failing instead every day..
Psalm 62:4 They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.
5 My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.
6 He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved.
7 In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.
8 Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.
9 Surely men of low degree ARE VANITY, and MEN OF HIGH DEGREE ARE A LIE: to be laid in the balance, THEY ARE ALTOGETHER LIGHTER THAN VANITY.
10 Trust not in oppression, and BECOME NOT VAIN IN ROBBERY: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.
11 God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.
12 Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
They do not serve the Lord Jesus Christ in glory, they serve their on belly by deceiving speeches but are EXPOSED, because there is NO PRAISE WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING..
Romans 16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.
18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
Conscience which you cannot have when you are not ashamed of the fruitless unrighteousness you think you are supposed to not ever be free of, glory to God is when you do better than that, even suffer all things against yourself, not make others suffer for your wickedness, that as testified here is the role of the evil spiritless doers, who try any way they can to somehow try to justify their wickedness, but the sheep are called to follow all the example of Christ, to be DEAD TO SINS, THEN YOU LIVE UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS, THEN YOU ARE HEALED OF THE SINS THAT CAUSED YOU SICKNESS OR YOUR DEATH IN DAMNATION SINS COMES OR RETURN QUICKLY..
1 Peter 2:19 For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.
20 For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.
21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
23 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
Romans 6:21 WHAT FRUIT had ye then in those things whereof ye are NOW ASHAMED? for the end of those things is death.
Psalm 47:7 For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye PRAISES WITH UNDERSTANDING.
Psalm 50:14 OFFER unto God THANKSGIVING; AND PAY THY VOWS UNTO THE MOST HIGH:
15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, AND THOU SHALT GLORIFY ME.
16 BUT UNTO THE WICKED God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, OR THAT THOU SHOULDEST TAKE MY COVENANT IN THY MOUTH?
17 Seeing thou hatest instruction, AND CASTETH MY WORDS BEHIND THEE.
18 When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers.
19 Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.
20 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou SLANDEREST thine own mother's son.(PROPHETIC SLANDERS APOSTLE PETER)
21 These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.
22 NOW CONSIDER THIS, YE THAT FORGET GOD, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.
23 WHOSO OFFERETH PRAISE GLORIFIETH ME: AND TO HIM THAT ORDERETH HIS CONVERSATION ARIGHT WILL I SHEW THE SALVATION OF GOD.
Ecclesiastes 5:4 When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed.
5 Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.
1 Peter 1:14 As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:
15 But as he which hath called you is holy, SO BE YE HOLY IN ALL MANNER OF CONVERSATION;
16 Because it is written, BE YE HOLY, FOR I AM HOLY.
17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your SOJOURNING HERE IN FEAR:
18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, FROM YOUR VAIN CONVERSATION RECEIVED BY TRADITION FROM YOUR FATHERS;
19 But with the PRACIOUS BLOOD of Christ, as of a lamb WITHOUT BLEMISH AND WITHOUT SPOT:
Come to repentance, or keep coming to repentance... empty evil..
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should COME TO REPENTANCE.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be IN ALL HOLY CONVERSATION AND GODLINESS,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
I John 1:8-10; 2:1-6:: If we claim to be without sin {LIKE 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**!! If anybody does sin, we have an Advocate with the Father--Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world. We know that we have come to know Him **IF WE KEEP HIS COMMANDS**! Whoever says, "I know Him," but does not do what He commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person. But if anyone **OBEYS HIS WORD**, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in Him! Whoever claims to live in Him **MUST** live as Jesus did!! {Adam7777 claims that he is sinless and therefore lived as Jesus did!}
John 14:21,23,24: Jesus says, "Whoever has My commands and **KEEPS THEM** is the one who loves Me... Anyone who loves Me will **OBEY MY TEACHING**, My Father will love them, and We will come to them and make Our home with them. Anyone who does not love Me will **NOT OBEY** My teaching!"
Luke 11:1-4: One of His disciples asked Jesus, "Lord, teach us to pray!" Jesus says, "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!!" {Satan's followers like Adam7777 and Joyce Meyer and Satan will never repent of their sins or ask forgiveness for their sins since they claim that they **NEVER SIN ANY MORE**??}
I John 3:24: The one who **KEEPS GOD'S COMMANDS** lives in Him, and He in them.
Galatians 6:1: Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gently. But watch yourself, or you may also be tempted. Carry each others burdens, and in this way you fulfill the law of Christ!!
James 5:16: **CONFESS YOUR SINS** to each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective!!
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** He accepts as His 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 LEGITIMATE**, 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!
Now Adam7777 goes even one step further than Joyce Meyer since he claims that he has **NEVER SINNED** and was **PERFECT** the moment he was saved. Those who claim that they are never disciplined for their sins after they are saved are **NOT LEGITIMATE**!!
Read lower to see the revealing of the Lords testimonies and the revealing of the deceivers at the same time, Daniel the Gospel and Revelation ..

Good HOLY conversation o vain conversation, WHEN it is not with the Lords Holy Spirit in you, talking in you. All were testified as robbing God, even the hole nation, ROBBING God in their insincere tithing and lack of giving..Matthew 23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.,,
Malachi 3:8 Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.
9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation.
We have seen the deceit of the false interpreters, these are the robbers of the people of God, without shame exalting themselves to falsely teach in the name of Christ, but they do fail..
Daniel 11:14 And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but they shall fall.
The vision is as it says, the devils spirit is against the Holy covenant with indignation..Daniel 8:19 And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the last end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end shall be. The devil returns to his own land, to earth, as we read in Revelation, he gives hatred towards the Lords Holy covenant instructing his ministers, and the wicked people are corrupted by the modern prosperity flatteries and all they flatter you with, grace no need for works, and endlessly repenting no need to ever be straight in their lies, but the ones who know the Lord still do works and exploits and remain strong..Luke 22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren...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...These ones who keep His word, which equals not denying His name, go through the trials and tribulations, which are the sword, flame captivity and spoils, and this too..Revelation 2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life. All this is one same testimony, and as told, to try them, to purge them and to make them white until the time of the end..
Daniel 11:28 Then shall he return into his land with great riches; and his heart shall be against the holy covenant; and he shall do exploits, and return to his own land.
29 At the time appointed he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be as the former, or as the latter.
30 For the ships of Chittim shall come against him: therefore he shall be grieved, and return, and have indignation against the holy covenant: so shall he do; he shall even return, and have intelligence with them that forsake the holy covenant.
31 And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate.
32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.
33 And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.
34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries.
35 And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.
Now at the end, Michael stands up, and He has stood up already, now the time of trouble, that never was until this time, the time of deliverance to those who have their names in the book of life. We need to not be ASHAMED to stand in His presence..Mark 8:38 Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels. 1 John 2:28 And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming. 29 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him...Turn to RIGHTEOUSNESS, why hear the DECEIVERS any more who are proven completey EMPTY of REASON ? That KNOWLEDGE is INCREASED now..
Daniel 12:1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
So we see the war that is in Heaven with Michael against the devil, the same war of the false prophet deceivers against the simple warning and message the Lord has always told us about to be ready and prepared sincerely, then the devil goes to his own land, to earth out from Heaven, and to overcome lies you needd to do so y the blood of the Lamb, HOLY without blemish is the sign you have it, your HOLY conversation testifying the truth, which means you love not yourself..revelation 22:6 And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book...
Revelation 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
The false prophets are risen, the devil has instructed them to be against all we hear, and we are under that great trouble and time of tribulation, but many follow the deceiving ways of the many false prophet teachers, but we cant miss them, they use flatteries to corrupt, through coveteousness making merchandise of you, speaking evil of the way of truth, in damnable heresies, this is denying the Lord as all told..
Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
Matthew 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
2 Peter 2:But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
They do not serve the Lord Jesus Christ in glory, they serve their on belly by deceiving speeches but are EXPOSED, because there is NO PRAISE WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING..
Romans 16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.
18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
Conscience which you cannot have when you are not ashamed of the fruitless unrighteousness you think you are supposed to not ever be free of, glory to God is when you do better than that, even suffer all things against yourself, not make others suffer for your wickedness, that as testified here is the role of the evil spiritless doers, who try any way they can to somehow try to justify their wickedness, but the sheep are called to follow all the example of Christ, to be DEAD TO SINS, THEN YOU LIVE UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS, THEN YOU ARE HEALED OF THE SINS THAT CAUSED YOU SICKNESS OR YOUR DEATH IN DAMNATION SINS COMES OR RETURN QUICKLY..
1 Peter 2:19 For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.
20 For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.
21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
23 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
Romans 6:21 WHAT FRUIT had ye then in those things whereof ye are NOW ASHAMED? for the end of those things is death.
Psalm 47:7 For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye PRAISES WITH UNDERSTANDING.
Psalm 50:14 OFFER unto God THANKSGIVING; AND PAY THY VOWS UNTO THE MOST HIGH:
15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, AND THOU SHALT GLORIFY ME.
16 BUT UNTO THE WICKED God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, OR THAT THOU SHOULDEST TAKE MY COVENANT IN THY MOUTH?
17 Seeing thou hatest instruction, AND CASTETH MY WORDS BEHIND THEE.
18 When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers.
19 Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.
20 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou SLANDEREST thine own mother's son.(PROPHETIC SLANDERS APOSTLE PETER)
21 These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.
22 NOW CONSIDER THIS, YE THAT FORGET GOD, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.
23 WHOSO OFFERETH PRAISE GLORIFIETH ME: AND TO HIM THAT ORDERETH HIS CONVERSATION ARIGHT WILL I SHEW THE SALVATION OF GOD.
Ecclesiastes 5:4 When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed.
5 Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.
1 Peter 1:14 As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:
15 But as he which hath called you is holy, SO BE YE HOLY IN ALL MANNER OF CONVERSATION;
16 Because it is written, BE YE HOLY, FOR I AM HOLY.
17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your SOJOURNING HERE IN FEAR:
18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, FROM YOUR VAIN CONVERSATION RECEIVED BY TRADITION FROM YOUR FATHERS;
19 But with the PRACIOUS BLOOD of Christ, as of a lamb WITHOUT BLEMISH AND WITHOUT SPOT:
Come to repentance, or keep coming to repentance... empty evil..
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should COME TO REPENTANCE.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be IN ALL HOLY CONVERSATION AND GODLINESS,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?.
*}"**PRAY CONTINUALLY**; GIVE THANKS IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, FOR THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU IN CHRIST JESUS!!" {I Thess 5:17,18}
Matthew 6:5,6,9-11 Jesus commands, �When you **PRAY**, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to **PRAY** standing in the synagogues {churches} and on the street corners to be seen by men...But when you **PRAY**, go into your room, close the door and PRAY to your FATHER, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret will reward you... This, then, is how you should **PRAY**: �Our Father in heaven hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.� and Luke 11:4 adds, **FORGIVE US OUR SINS**, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us.�
Matthew 6:7,8: Jesus says, "And when you **PRAY**, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him!"
James 5:13-16: Is any one of you **IN TROUBLE**? He should **PRAY**!! Is any one of you **SICK**? He should call the elders {And only the elders!} of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the **PRAYER** offered in faith will make the sick person well, the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The **PRAYER** of a righteous man is powerful and effective!
Acts 1:14: They all joined together **CONSTANTLY IN PRAYER**!
Ephesians 6:18-19: **PRAY** in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind be alert and always keep on **PRAYING**for all the saints. **PRAY** also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the Gospel.
I John 1:8,9; 2:1,2: If we {believers} claim to be without sin, **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 {believers} we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar and His word has no place in our lives....If anybody does sin, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense--Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the **ATONING SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS**!!
Matthew 26:41: Jesus says, "Watch and **PRAY** so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing but the body is weak!"
Hebrews 4:15,16: For we do not have a High Priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have One who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may **RECEIVE MERCY AND FIND GRACE TO HELP US IN OUR TIME OF NEED**!!
Hebrews 12:5,6,10,11: 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 punishes everyone He accepts as a son... God disciplines us for our own good, 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.
If we fail to daily ask forgiveness and repent of our sins God will **DISCIPLINE US** and sometimes it will be very painful. We will also **LOSE ETERNAL REWARDS** and a **CLOSE RELATIONSHIP** with God!
2 Corinthians 5:9,10: 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 for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.
Luke 18:1: JESUS SAYS, **ALWAYS **PRAY** AND NEVER GIVE UP**!
Jeremiah 33:3; The Lord says, "Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know!" {This would help God's saints to correctly interpret many of the mysteries in God's Word!}
Luke 11:1-4: The disciples asked Jesus, "Teach us to **PRAY**" Jesus said to His disciples, "When you **PRAY**, say: 'Father , hallowed be your name, Your kingdom come. Give us each day our **DAILY** bread. **FORGIVE US {disciples}OUR SINS**, for we forgive everyone who sins against us'"
Here we see that Jesus tells His disciples to daily ask the Father to forgive them of their sins. God's Word states that we must be holy as God is holy as per I Peter 1:15,16; and to walk as Jesus walked as per I John 2:6. And God understands that we really don't understand how much we fall short and sin daily.
I John 2:6: Whoever claims to live in Him **MUST** live as Jesus did!!
The closer we get to God the more we realize how much we fall short and sin daily; and realize our need to confess our sins daily to get closer to God. Take Paul, the greatest NT saint, for example:
I Timothy 1:15,16: Paul said, "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners--of whom **I AM THE WORST**. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, **THE WORST OF SINNERS**, Christ Jesus might display **HIS UNLIMITED PATIENCE** as an example for those who would believe on Him and receive eternal life.
I Timothy 5:5: The widow who is really in need and left all alone puts her hope in God and continues night and day to **PRAY** and **ASK GOD FOR HELP**!!
I Thessalonians 5:17,18: ** PRAY**CONTINUALLY**; **GIVE THANKS IN ALL** circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
Philemon 1:6: I **PRAY** that you may be active in sharing your faith.
Acts 6:4: We will give our attention to **PRAYER** and the ministry of the Word!
Matthew 5:44: Jesus commands, �Love your enemies and **PRAY** for those who persecute you.�
Acts 21:5: All the disciples and their wives and children accompanied us out of the city and there on the beach we *KNELT to **PRAY**.
Luke 22:41: Jesus *KNELT down and **PRAYED**.
Mark 1:35: Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a **SOLITARY PLACE**, where He **PRAYED**!
Luke 5:16: Jesus often withdrew to **LONELY PLACES** and **PRAYED**!
Acts 9:40: Peter sent them all out of the room; then he got down on his *KNEES and **PRAYED**.
I Thessalonians 3:10: Night and day we **PRAY** most earnestly that we may supply what is lacking in your faith.
Ephesians 3:16-19: I **PRAY** that out of his glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I **PRAY** that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know that love which surpasses knowledge�that you may be filled to the measure of the fullness of God!
2 Thessalonians 1:11,12: We **CONSTANTLY PRAY FOR YOU**, that our God may count you worthy of His calling, and that by His power He may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith. We **PRAY** this that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
John 17:15-17: Jesus prayed, �My **PRAYER** is not to take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. Sanctify them by the Truth Your Word is Truth!�
I Peter 3:12: The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and His ears are attentive to their **PRAYER**.
Colossians 4:12: He is always wrestling in **PRAYER** for you, that you may stand firm in all the will of God, mature and fully assured.
Hebrews 4:15,16: For we do not have a High Priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have One who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet He did not sin. Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need!!
Philippians 4:6: Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by **PRAYER** and petition, with thanksgiving present your requests to God.
I John 5:14,15 This is the confidence we have in approaching God; that if we ask anything **ACCORDING TO HIS WILL** He hears us. And if we know that He hears us--whatever we ask--we know that we have what we asked of Him.
2 Corinthians 12:8,9: Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness!"
James 4:3: When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with the wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures!
Romans 8:26,27: The Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to **PRAY** for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with **GOD'S WILL**!
Matthew 18:10-14: Jesus said, �Two men went up to the temple to **PRAY**, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood up and **PRAYED** about himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men�robbers, evildoers, adulterers�or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.' But the tax collector stood at a distance, He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, '**GOD, HAVE MERCY ON ME, A SINNER**'!!.'"I tell you that this man rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted!�
**FIX YOUR *THOUGHTS* ON JESUS**!!
Hebrews 3:1: Therefore, holy brothers who share in the heavenly calling, **FIX YOUR THOUGHTS ON JESUS**!!
Hebrews 4:12,13: The Word of God is living and active, sharper than any double edged sword... It judges the **THOUGHTS** and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. **EVERYTHING** is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account!
2 Corinthians 5:9,10: 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 for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad!
2 Corinthians 10:5: We take captive **EVERY THOUGHT** and make it obedient to Christ!!
Romans 13:14: Clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and **DO NOT THINK** about how to satisfy the desires of the sinful nature!
Matthew 22:37,38: Jesus says, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with **ALL YOUR MIND**!! This is the first and **GREATEST** commandment!!"
Colossians 3:2: Set your **MINDS ON THINGS ABOVE**, not on earthly things!
Romans 12:2: Be transformed by the **RENEWING OF YOUR MIND**. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--His good, pleasing and perfect will!!
Romans 8:5,6: Those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their **MINDS** set on what the Spirit desires. The mind of sinful man is death, but the **MIND** controlled by the Spirit is life and peace!
Philippians 4:8,9: Finally, brothers, whatever is **TRUE**, whatever is **NOBLE**, whatever is **RIGHT**, whatever is **PURE**, whatever is **LOVELY**, whatever is **ADMIRABLE**,**THINK ABOUT SUCH THINGS**... And the God of peace will be with you!!
Matthew 16:27: Jesus says, "For 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 they have done!"
THIS IS NOT A SPORT OR A GAME ANYONE SHOULD PLAY, IT ENDS IN DEATH, IT IS COMING QUICK, GOD WANTS TO REPAY THEM TO THEIR FACE..
Deuteronomy 7:10 And repayeth them that hate him to their face, TO DESTROY THEM: HE WILL NOT BE SLACK TO HIM THAT HATETH HIM, HE WILL REPAY HIM TO HIS FACE.
2 Peter 2:13 And SHALL RECEIVE THE REWARD OF UNRIGHTEOUSNESS, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, SPORTING THEMSELVES WITH THEIR OWN DECEIVINGS WHILE THEY FEAST WITH YOU;
2 Peter 2:14 Having eyes full of adultery, AND THAT CANNOT CEASE FROM SIN; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with COVETEOUS PRACTISES, CURSED CHILDREN:
2 Peter 2:1 But there were FALSE PROPHETS also among the people, even as there shall be FALSE TEACHERS AMONG YOU, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, AND BRING UPON THEMSELVES SWIFT DESTRUCTION.
2 Peter 2:3 And through covetousness shall they WITH FEIGNED WORDS make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, AND THEIR DAMNATION SLUMBERETH NOT .
Christ is not the minister of sin, we seek to be justified by Christ...
Galatians 2:17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.
There were no different rules for the disciples of John the baptist, John the baptist had taught his disciples to pray, a prayer that John showed he had need to be baptised of Christ..
Matthew 3:14 But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?
Matthew 9:14 Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?
Jesus taught His disciples to pray, pre- baptism, even the SAME BAPTISM that Christ was baptized of, the Holy Ghost annointing...
Matthew 20:23 And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.
Luke 11:1 And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.
Then the prayer was to be forgiven of our debts, and to forgive men their debts to us, or our Heavenly Father will not forgive us. He forgives us all of that debt..
Matthew 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Matthew 18:32 Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:
33 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?
34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.
35 So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
NOW we see the DEBT Christ forgave for us, He made His soul the offering for sin, forgiving us all our debts, and the CHASTISEMENT of our peace was upon Him, bruised for our iniquities, not for what He had done. Affliction and chastening is not always for correction of the sins we did, and we follow in His same baptism and same sufferings, even the same cup
1 Peter 4:13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
Isaiah 53:4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
Continuing on chastening, the Lord scourges every son He receives, even as Christ was wounded afflicted and bruised with chastisement upon Him, it is not for sin we continue to do, it is to LEARN OBEDIENCE BY WE ALSO SUFFER IN THE SAME SUFFERINGS OF CHRIST..
Hebrews 5:8 Though he were A SON, yet LEARNED HE OBEDIENCE BY THE THINGS WHICH HE SUFFERED;
9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;
Hebrews 12:5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and SCOURGETH EVERY SON WHOM HE RECEIVETH.
Hebrews 2:10 For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, IN BRINGING MANY SONS UNTO GLORY, TO MAKE THE CAPTAIN OF THEIR SALVATION PERFECT THROUGH SUFFERINGS.
11 FOR BOTH HE THAT SANCTIFIETH AND THEY WHO ARE SANCTIFIED ARE ALL ONE: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
Same baptism as Christ, same cup, same sufferings, same afflictions and chastenings as the sufferings make us obedient and perfect, and converted after Christ is risen from the dead, as His blood is precious when shed. The sinner needs converting, they confess what they do..
.Luke 22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren
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.
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.
there are TWO WAYS, one of being converted and one of not being converted, they are hardly the same, as it makes ALL DIFFERENCE..2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, HE IS A NEW CREATURE, OLD THINGS ARE PASSED AWAY, BEHOLD, ALL THINGS ARE BECOME NEW.
Prophetic says confess, lets see what is confessed, we know that the CHASTISEMENT OF OUR PEACE WAS UPON CHRIST, and EVERY SON INCLUDING CHRIST RECEIVED BEGOTTON of the dead..Hebrews 1:5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, THIS DAY HAVE I BEGOTTEN THEEthis day have I begotten thee? And again, I WILL BE TO HIM A FATHER, AND HE SHALL BE TO ME A SON? 1 John 5:18 We know that whosoever is BORN OF GOD SINNETH NOT; BUT HE THAT IS BEGOTTEN OF GOD KEEPETH HIMSELF, AND THAT WICKED ONE TOUCHETH HIM NOT.
TWO WAYS OR WE DISAGREE? To one, God says, He had not found the ways perfect. To othes they were not told to repent, but that they had not defiled their garments, for they are worthy?
Revelation 3:2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.
3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.
just read through the Epistles and we do not see one way, we see TWO? To one example to the Corinthians they must after being confirmed be confirmed to the end to be BLAMELESS..
1 Corinthians 1:6 Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:
7 So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:
8 Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Quickly we see the other way, the way of them failing doing fornication, and the one who does those things has no command to repent, they will corrupt the believers, who are told to cast out that wicked person/persons..
1 Corinthians 5:1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.
2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
1 Corinthians 5:11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolator, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
The Galatians have correction when they have returned to their vomit, to bondage of sin, that way does need repenting of..
Galatians 4:9 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.
The Ephesians here are written how the choosing in Him is to be HOLY WITHOUT BLAME BEFORE HIM IN LOVE, and for the Philippians here to both be BLAMELESS AND HARMLESS THE SONS OF GOD WITHOUT REBUKE, and exhorted by Peter to be found in Him, WITHOUT SPOT AND BLAMELESS..
Ephesians 1:4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
Philippians 2:15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
2 Peter 3:14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
The proof of all that including the testimony for the Lords Holy Apostles, is not that they are found sinners, that is for the ones to blame to confess their failings, but the Apostles confess as told: They behaved HOLILY AND JUSTLY AND UNBLAMABLY, WALKING WORTHY OF GOD WHO CALLED THEM TO HIS KINGDOM AND GLORY
1 Thessalonians 2:10 Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:
11 As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children,
12 That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.
Christ is able to present you FAULTLESS AND KEEP YOU FROM FALLING AS THAT IS TO BE IN THE PRESENCE OF HIS GLORY, AND TESTIFIED, IN THEIR MOUTH WAS FOUND NO GUILE, FOR THEY ARE WITHOUT FAULT BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD..
Jude 1:24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
Revelation 14:5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
LABOUR TO B E ACCEPTED OF HIM, BECAUSE OTHERWISE YOU RECEIVED THE GRACE OF GOD IN VAIN, SIMPLE AS THAT, RECEIVING JUDGEMENT FOR THE BAD THAT WAS NOT CEASED. GIVE NO OFFENCE IN ANYTHING, APPROVING YOURSELVES IN THE PATIENCE AFFLICTIONS AND DISTRESSES ABOUNDING AND OVERFLOWING NOT WANTING..Daniel 5:27 Tekel; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting...Proverbs 11:1 A false balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is his delight.
2 Corinthians 5:9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
2 Corinthians 6:We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.
2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
3 Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
4 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
Last reproof, there are the promises, now CLEANSE OURSELVES FROM ALL FILTHINESS OF THE FLESH AND SPIRIT IS PERFECTING HOLINESS IN THE FEAR OF GOD. NOT TO BE REPENTED OF, CLEARING OF YOURSELVES WITH FEAR AND ZEAL, APPROVING YOURSELVES. OTHERWISE THEY FEAR, YOU IN DEBATES AND ENVY AND STRIFE AND THEN YOU NEVER REPENTED OF THE UNCLEANNESS AND LASCIVIOUSNESS AND FORNICATION THEY DID..
2 Corinthians 7:1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
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.
2 Corinthians 12:20 For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there be debates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:
21 And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.
ARM WITH THAT MIND OF CHRIST, SUFFER IN THE FLESH MEANS YOU CEASE PLEASURE IN FLESH AND CEASE SIN, NOW TO THE WILL OF GOD..
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 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
WHEN SERVANTS OF SIN FREE FROM ANY ACT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, NOW EXPECTED TO BE ASHAMED, NOT UNASHAMED AND NEVER CEASING THEM, AS NOW MADE FREE FROM SIN, FOR THE WAGES OF SIN AR DEATH, AND JUST AS YOU CANNOT CONFESS ANY RIGHTEOUSNESS YOU DID BEFORE FAITH IN CHRIST YOU ALSO LIKEWISE CANNOT CONFESS ANY UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IF YOU ARE IN HIM..
Romans 6:20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
THE GIFT OF GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD, NONE DID GOOD OR SOUGHT AFTER GOD, NOW JUSTIFIED FREELY BY HIS GRACE, THE REMISSION OF SINS THAT ARE PAST, AND CHRIST IS JUST AND THE JUSTIFIER OF HIM THAT BELIEVETH IN JESUS, AND IF WE SAY WE HAVE NOT SINNED WE LIE, SO WE CONFESS THE SINS THAT ARE PAST AND BE JUSTIFIED..
Romans 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Romans 3:24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
PAUL WAS SAUL, AND HE NAMES HIMSELF CHIEF SINNER. HE OBTAINED MERCY AS THAT CHIEF SINNER FOR THE SAME CAUSE, SO THAT CHRIST CAN SHOW A PATTERN OF ALL LONGSUFFERING IN PAUL AND EXHORTS TIMOTHY TO WAR A GOOD WARFARE, HOLDING FAITH AND A GOOD CONSCIENCE..
1 Timothy 1:15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
18 This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare;
19 Holding faith, and a GOOD CONSCIENCE; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:
THE SAME WEAPONS OF PAUL'S WARFARE ARE NOT CARNAL, BUT CASTING DOWN THROUGH GOD IMAGINATIONS AND EVERY HIGH THING THAT EXALTS ITSELF AGAINST THE KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST AND BRINGING INTO SUBJECTION EVERY THOUGHT TO THE OBEDIENCE OF CHRIST, BECAUSE THERE IS RESURRECTION NOT JUST OF THE UNJUST BUT OF THE JUST TOO, AND SO NOW PAUL STILL CHIEF INNER OR NOW EXERCISES HIMSELF TO HAVE ALWAYS A CONSCIENCE WITHOUT OFFENCE TO GOD OR MAN?
2 Corinthians 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
Acts 24:15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have ALWAYS A CONSCIENCE VOID TO OFFENCE toward God, and toward men.
ANYONE HAVE A GOOD CONSCIENCE READING ANY OF THIS?
"**PRAY CONTINUALLY**; GIVE THANKS IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, FOR THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU IN CHRIST JESUS!!" {I Thess 5:17,18}
Matthew 6:5,6,9-11 Jesus commands, �When you **PRAY**, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to **PRAY** standing in the synagogues {churches} and on the street corners to be seen by men...But when you **PRAY**, go into your room, close the door and PRAY to your FATHER, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret will reward you... This, then, is how you should **PRAY**: �Our Father in heaven hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.� and Luke 11:4 adds, **FORGIVE US OUR SINS**, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us.�
The above inspired words of Jesus can not be found in Adam7777's Bible!!
Matthew 6:7,8: Jesus says, "And when you **PRAY**, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him!"
James 5:13-16: Is any one of you **IN TROUBLE**? He should **PRAY**!! Is any one of you **SICK**? He should call the elders {And only the elders!} of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the **PRAYER** offered in faith will make the sick person well, the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. Therefore **CONFESS YOUR SINS TO EACH OTHER** and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The **PRAYER** of a righteous man is powerful and effective!
The above inspired words of God can not be found in Adam7777's Bible!!
Acts 1:14: They all joined together **CONSTANTLY IN PRAYER**!
Ephesians 6:18-19: **PRAY** in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind be alert and always keep on **PRAYING**for all the saints. **PRAY** also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the Gospel.
I John 1:8,9; 2:1,2: If we {believers} claim to be without sin, **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 {believers} we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar and His word has no place in our lives....If anybody does sin, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense--Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the **ATONING SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS**!!
The above inspired words of God can not be found in Adam7777's Bible!!
Matthew 26:41: Jesus says, "Watch and **PRAY** so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing but the body is weak!"
Hebrews 4:15,16: For we do not have a High Priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have One who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may **RECEIVE MERCY AND FIND GRACE TO HELP US IN OUR TIME OF NEED**!!
Hebrews 12:5,6,10,11: 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 punishes everyone He accepts as a son... God disciplines us for our own good, 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.
The inspired words above can not be found in Adam7777's Bible!!
If we fail to daily ask forgiveness and repent of our sins God will **DISCIPLINE US** and sometimes it will be very painful. We will also **LOSE ETERNAL REWARDS** and a **CLOSE RELATIONSHIP** with God!
2 Corinthians 5:9,10: 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 for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.
Luke 18:1: JESUS SAYS, **ALWAYS **PRAY** AND NEVER GIVE UP**!
Jeremiah 33:3; The Lord says, "Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know!" {This would help God's saints to correctly interpret many of the mysteries in God's Word!}
Luke 11:1-4: The disciples asked Jesus, "Teach us to **PRAY**" Jesus said to His disciples, "When you **PRAY**, say: 'Father , hallowed be your name, Your kingdom come. Give us each day our **DAILY** bread. **FORGIVE US {disciples}OUR SINS**, for we forgive everyone who sins against us'"
The above inspired words of Jesus can not be found in Adam7777's Bible!!
Here we see that Jesus tells His disciples to daily ask the Father to forgive them of their sins. God's Word states that we must be holy as God is holy as per I Peter 1:15,16; and to walk as Jesus walked as per I John 2:6. And God understands that we really don't understand how much we fall short and sin daily.
I John 2:6: Whoever claims to live in Him **MUST** live as Jesus did!!
The above inspired words of God can not be found in Adam7777's Bible!!
The closer we get to God the more we realize how much we fall short and sin daily; and realize our need to confess our sins daily to get closer to God. Take Paul, the greatest NT saint, for example:
I Timothy 1:15,16: Paul said, "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners--of whom **I AM THE WORST**. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, **THE WORST OF SINNERS**, Christ Jesus might display **HIS UNLIMITED PATIENCE** as an example for those who would believe on Him and receive eternal life.
I Timothy 5:5: The widow who is really in need and left all alone puts her hope in God and continues night and day to **PRAY** and **ASK GOD FOR HELP**!!
I Thessalonians 5:17,18: ** PRAY**CONTINUALLY**; **GIVE THANKS IN ALL** circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.

Ephesians 3:16-19: I **PRAY** that out of his glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I **PRAY** that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know that love which surpasses knowledge�that you may be filled to the measure of the fullness of God!
2 Thessalonians 1:11,12: We **CONSTANTLY PRAY FOR YOU**, that our God may count you worthy of His calling, and that by His power He may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith. We **PRAY** this that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
John 17:15-17: Jesus prayed, �My **PRAYER** is not to take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. Sanctify them by the Truth Your Word is Truth!�
I Peter 3:12: The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and His ears are attentive to their **PRAYER**.
Colossians 4:12: He is always wrestling in **PRAYER** for you, that you may stand firm in all the will of God, mature and fully assured.
Hebrews 4:15,16: For we do not have a High Priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have One who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet He did not sin. Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need!!
Philippians 4:6: Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by **PRAYER** and petition, with thanksgiving present your requests to God.
I John 5:14,15 This is the confidence we have in approaching God; that if we ask anything **ACCORDING TO HIS WILL** He hears us. And if we know that He hears us--whatever we ask--we know that we have what we asked of Him.
2 Corinthians 12:8,9: Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness!"
James 4:3: When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with the wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures!
Romans 8:26,27: The Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to **PRAY** for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with **GOD'S WILL**!
Matthew 18:10-14: Jesus said, �Two men went up to the temple to **PRAY**, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee {Like dam7777} stood up and **PRAYED** about himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men�robbers, evildoers, adulterers�or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.' But the tax collector stood at a distance, He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, '**GOD, HAVE MERCY ON ME, A SINNER**'!!.'"I tell you that this man rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted!�

**FIX YOUR *THOUGHTS* ON JESUS**!!
Hebrews 3:1: Therefore, holy brothers who share in the heavenly calling, **FIX YOUR THOUGHTS ON JESUS**!!
Hebrews 4:12,13: The Word of God is living and active, sharper than any double edged sword... It judges the **THOUGHTS** and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. **EVERYTHING** is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account!

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!
Luke 11:33,34: Jesus says, "Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a **TREASURE** IN HEAVEN** that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your **TREASURE** is, there your **HEART** will be also!"
The above inspired words of God can not be found in Adam7777's Bible since he does not believe that God's saints can earn **ETERNAL HEAVENLY REWARDS** eternal heavenly rewards for faithful and loving service!!
According to Adam7777 there are no **WEAK** brothers in Christ since they are all **PERFECT AND SINLESS** the moment they are saved???
**BUT WHAT DOES GOD'S WORDS SAY**
I Corinthians 14:1: Accept the one whose faith is **WEAK**!!
I Corinthians 15:1: We who are strong ought to bear with the **FAILINGS OF THE WEAK** and not to please ourselves!!
I Thessalonians 5:14: We urge you brothers, warn those who are idle, encourage the timid, **HELP THE WEAK**, be patient with everyone!!
Christ is not the minister of sin, we seek to be justified by Christ...
THIS IS NOT A SPORT OR A GAME ANYONE SHOULD PLAY, IT ENDS IN DEATH, IT IS COMING QUICK, GOD WANTS TO REPAY THEM TO THEIR FACE..
Deuteronomy 7:10 And repayeth them that hate him to their face, TO DESTROY THEM: HE WILL NOT BE SLACK TO HIM THAT HATETH HIM, HE WILL REPAY HIM TO HIS FACE.
DO WE NOTICE THE ONES WITH SPOTS AND BLEMISHES ARE THESE DEVIL TEACHERS WHO CANT CONFESS WE MUST BE WITHOUT SPOT AND BLAMELESS? NOTICE BELOW SPOTS THEY ARE AND BLEMISHES> READ WHO IS REDEEMED. Brought up out of the pit, out of death, set upon Christ the rock, and the new song is praise for giving them life..
Psalm 40:2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.
The song of praise for being worthy to redeem us to God making us kings and priests to God..
Revelation 5:9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
Ephesians 5:27 That he might PRESENT IT TO HIMSELF A GLORIOUS CHURCH, NOT HAVING SPOT, or wrinkle, or any such thing; BUT THAT IT SHOULD BE HOLY AND WITHOUT BLEMISH.
1 Peter 1:18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were NOT REDEEMED WITH CORRUPTIBLE THINGS, as silver and gold, FROM YOUR VAIN CONVERSATION RECEIVED BY TRADITION FROM YOUR FATHERS;
1 Peter 1:19 But with the precious blood of Christ, AS OF A LAMB WITHOUT BLEMISH AND WITHOUT SPOT:
2 Peter 2:13 And SHALL RECEIVE THE REWARD OF UNRIGHTEOUSNESS, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. SPOTS THEY ARE AND BLEMISHES, SPORTING THEMSELVES WITH THEIR OWN DECEIVINGS WHILE THEY FEAST WITH YOU;
2 Peter 2:14 Having eyes full of adultery, AND THAT CANNOT CEASE FROM SIN; beguiling UNSTABLE SOULS: an heart they have exercised with COVETEOUS PRACTISES, CURSED CHILDREN:
2 Peter 2:1 But there were FALSE PROPHETS also among the people, even as there shall be FALSE TEACHERS AMONG YOU, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, AND BRING UPON THEMSELVES SWIFT DESTRUCTION.
2 Peter 2:3 And through covetousness shall they WITH FEIGNED WORDS make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, AND THEIR DAMNATION SLUMBERETH NOT .
Christ is not the minister of sin, we seek to be justified by Christ...
Galatians 2:17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.
There were no different rules for the disciples of John the baptist, John the baptist had taught his disciples to pray, a prayer that John showed he had need to be baptised of Christ..
Matthew 3:14 But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?
Matthew 9:14 Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?
Jesus taught His disciples to pray, pre- baptism, even the SAME BAPTISM that Christ was baptized of, the Holy Ghost annointing...
Matthew 20:23 And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.
Luke 11:1 And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.
Then the prayer was to be forgiven of our debts, and to forgive men their debts to us, or our Heavenly Father will not forgive us. He forgives us all of that debt..
Matthew 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Matthew 18:32 Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:
33 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?
34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.
35 So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
When anyone receives that Spirit, the Spirit itself makes the prayers for us, it is the Spirit of truth and righteousness that is from then on guiding us, and the mind of the Spirit has to be the mind of Christ to receive intercession for the saints. Also in same way, no need for any man to teach us, but the annointing of the Holy Ghost teaches us ALL THINGS, any one who tries to teach us is a seducer these days..
Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
1 John 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
NOW we see the DEBT Christ forgave for us, He made His soul the offering for sin, forgiving us all our debts, and the CHASTISEMENT of our peace was upon Him, bruised for our iniquities, not for what He had done. Affliction and chastening is not always for correction of the sins we did, and we follow in His same baptism and same sufferings, even the same cup
1 Peter 4:13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
Isaiah 53:4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
Continuing on chastening, the Lord scourges every son He receives, even as Christ was wounded afflicted and bruised with chastisement upon Him, it is not for sin we continue to do, it is to LEARN OBEDIENCE BY WE ALSO SUFFER IN THE SAME SUFFERINGS OF CHRIST..
Hebrews 5:8 Though he were A SON, yet LEARNED HE OBEDIENCE BY THE THINGS WHICH HE SUFFERED;
9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;
Hebrews 12:5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and SCOURGETH EVERY SON WHOM HE RECEIVETH.
Hebrews 2:10 For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, IN BRINGING MANY SONS UNTO GLORY, TO MAKE THE CAPTAIN OF THEIR SALVATION PERFECT THROUGH SUFFERINGS.
11 FOR BOTH HE THAT SANCTIFIETH AND THEY WHO ARE SANCTIFIED ARE ALL ONE: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
Same baptism as Christ, same cup, same sufferings, same afflictions and chastenings as the sufferings make us obedient and perfect, and converted after Christ is risen from the dead, as His blood is precious when shed. The sinner needs converting, they confess what they do..
.Luke 22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren
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.
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.
There are TWO WAYS, one of being converted and one of not being converted, they are hardly the same, as it makes ALL DIFFERENCE..2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, HE IS A NEW CREATURE, OLD THINGS ARE PASSED AWAY, BEHOLD, ALL THINGS ARE BECOME NEW.
Prophetic says confess, lets see what is confessed, we know that the CHASTISEMENT OF OUR PEACE WAS UPON CHRIST, and EVERY SON INCLUDING CHRIST RECEIVED BEGOTTEN of the dead..Hebrews 1:5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, THIS DAY HAVE I BEGOTTEN THEE? And again, I WILL BE TO HIM A FATHER, AND HE SHALL BE TO ME A SON? 1 John 5:18 We know that whosoever is BORN OF GOD SINNETH NOT; BUT HE THAT IS BEGOTTEN OF GOD KEEPETH HIMSELF, AND THAT WICKED ONE TOUCHETH HIM NOT.
TWO WAYS OR WE DISAGREE? To one, God says, He had not found the ways perfect. To others they were not told to repent, but that they had not defiled their garments, for they are worthy?
Revelation 3:2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.
3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.
Setting the hand of Christ in the seas and rivers, is ownership of them all, Christ is both firstborn and firstfruits..
Psalm 89:25 I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26 He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
27 Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
1 Corinthians 15:20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
1 Corinthians 15:23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
The angel has right to stand on the sea and the earth, right to declare there is time no longer, only Christ was worthy, no one else, and Christ is both the mystery of God and Godliness and finishes that mystery, exactly as told just above, the mystery and end comes when, He has put down all rule and all authority and power delivering up the kingdom to God..
1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
Revelation 10:5 And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,
6 And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:
7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
Christ the firstfruits from the dead, the first begotten of the dead, making us kings and priests unto God..
Revelation 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
Let the redeemed of the Lord give that praise of that new song of life, redeemed from the enemy, death, gathered from all the corners of the earth. Satisfying the hungry soul with righteousness and with goodness of the Holy Spirit. Sitting in the darkness of the shadow of death, having rebelled through the rebel satan and Adam received death, not choosing the warning of God not to eat what was prohibited, cursing the ground and living by the sweat of our brow, crying to the Lord delivering us from this curse, breaking the bands of death and its strength in pieces..
1 Corinthians 15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Psalm 107:O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;
3 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.
Psalm 107:9 For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
10 Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;
11 Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High:
12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help.
13 Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.
14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.
Now Israel knows that song only, Christ is Israel, He is the Holy one of Israel, and they that are with him are called chosen and faithful..
Revelation 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.

Ezekiel 20:40 For in mine holy mountain, in the mountain of the height of Israel, saith the Lord God, there shall all the house of Israel, all of them in the land, serve me: there will I accept them, and there will I require your offerings, and the firstfruits of your oblations, with all your holy things.
Ezekiel 39:29 Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord God.
Now the pure river, with the new firstfruits, and they are for the healing of the nations, these twelve tribes of Israel..
Ezekiel 47:12 And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.
13 Thus saith the Lord God; This shall be the border, whereby ye shall inherit the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.
14 And ye shall inherit it, one as well as another: concerning the which I lifted up mine hand to give it unto your fathers: and this land shall fall unto you for inheritance.
15 And this shall be the border of the land toward the north side, from the great sea, the way of Hethlon, as men go to Zedad;
16 Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazarhatticon, which is by the coast of Hauran.
17 And the border from the sea shall be Hazarenan, the border of Damascus, and the north northward, and the border of Hamath. And this is the north side.
18 And the east side ye shall measure from Hauran, and from Damascus, and from Gilead, and from the land of Israel by Jordan, from the border unto the east sea. And this is the east side.
19 And the south side southward, from Tamar even to the waters of strife in Kadesh, the river to the great sea. And this is the south side southward.
20 The west side also shall be the great sea from the border, till a man come over against Hamath. This is the west side.
21 So shall ye divide this land unto you according to the tribes of Israel.
22 And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance unto you, and to the strangers that sojourn among you, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
23 And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Lord God.
Ezekiel 48:35 It was round about eighteen thousand measures: and the name of the city from that day shall be, The Lord is there.

Exodus 3:15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou SAY UNTO THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL, the Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and THE GOD OF JACOB, hath sent me unto you: THIS IS MY NAME FOR EVER, and this is my memorial unto all generations.

Psalm 89:19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
Acts 3:13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.
14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;
15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
Psalm 2:1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying,
3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
Acts 4:24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:
25 Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?
26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,
28 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.
Psalm 2:5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

8 Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.
Revelation 19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
Proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb, from the sanctuary, sand the leaves of the tree for the healing of the nations, no more curse and they have that seal name in their foreheads through the 12 tribes of Israel..
Revelation 22: 1 And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:
4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
Revelation 14:3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.
5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
Galatians 6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, BUT A NEW CREATURE.
16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, AND UPON THE ISRAEL OF GOD.
2 Corinthians 11:2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
Revelation 7:3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
5 Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.
6 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand.
7 Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand.
8 Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.
9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;
Revelation 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
7 Saying with a loud voice, FEAR GOD, AND GIVE HIM GLORY; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
Just read through the Epistles and we do not see one way, we see TWO? To one example to the Corinthians they must after being confirmed be confirmed to the end to be BLAMELESS..
1 Corinthians 1:6 Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:
7 So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:
8 Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Quickly we see the other way, the way of them failing doing fornication, and the one who does those things has no command to repent, they will corrupt the believers, who are told to cast out that wicked person/persons..
1 Corinthians 5:1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.
2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
1 Corinthians 5:11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolator, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
The Galatians have correction when they have returned to their vomit, to bondage of sin, that way does need repenting of..
Galatians 4:9 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.
The Ephesians here are written how the choosing in Him is to be HOLY WITHOUT BLAME BEFORE HIM IN LOVE, and for the Philippians here to both be BLAMELESS AND HARMLESS THE SONS OF GOD WITHOUT REBUKE, and exhorted by Peter to be found in Him, WITHOUT SPOT AND BLAMELESS..
Ephesians 1:4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
Philippians 2:15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
2 Peter 3:14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
The proof of all that including the testimony for the Lords Holy Apostles, is not that they are found sinners, that is for the ones to blame to confess their failings, but the Apostles confess as told: They behaved HOLILY AND JUSTLY AND UNBLAMABLY, WALKING WORTHY OF GOD WHO CALLED THEM TO HIS KINGDOM AND GLORY
1 Thessalonians 2:10 Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:
11 As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children,
12 That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.
Christ is able to present you FAULTLESS AND KEEP YOU FROM FALLING AS THAT IS TO BE IN THE PRESENCE OF HIS GLORY, AND TESTIFIED, IN THEIR MOUTH WAS FOUND NO GUILE, FOR THEY ARE WITHOUT FAULT BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD..
Jude 1:24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
Revelation 14:5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
LABOUR TO B E ACCEPTED OF HIM, BECAUSE OTHERWISE YOU RECEIVED THE GRACE OF GOD IN VAIN, SIMPLE AS THAT, RECEIVING JUDGEMENT FOR THE BAD THAT WAS NOT CEASED. GIVE NO OFFENCE IN ANYTHING, APPROVING YOURSELVES IN THE PATIENCE AFFLICTIONS AND DISTRESSES ABOUNDING AND OVERFLOWING NOT WANTING..Daniel 5:27 Tekel; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting...Proverbs 11:1 A false balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is his delight.
2 Corinthians 5:9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
2 Corinthians 6:We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.
2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
3 Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
4 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
Last reproof, there are the promises, now CLEANSE OURSELVES FROM ALL FILTHINESS OF THE FLESH AND SPIRIT IS PERFECTING HOLINESS IN THE FEAR OF GOD. NOT TO BE REPENTED OF, CLEARING OF YOURSELVES WITH FEAR AND ZEAL, APPROVING YOURSELVES. OTHERWISE THEY FEAR, YOU IN DEBATES AND ENVY AND STRIFE AND THEN YOU NEVER REPENTED OF THE UNCLEANNESS AND LASCIVIOUSNESS AND FORNICATION THEY DID..
2 Corinthians 7:1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
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.
2 Corinthians 12:20 For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there be debates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:
21 And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.
ARM WITH THAT MIND OF CHRIST, SUFFER IN THE FLESH MEANS YOU CEASE PLEASURE IN FLESH AND CEASE SIN, NOW TO THE WILL OF GOD..
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 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
WHEN SERVANTS OF SIN FREE FROM ANY ACT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, NOW EXPECTED TO BE ASHAMED, NOT UNASHAMED AND NEVER CEASING THEM, AS NOW MADE FREE FROM SIN, FOR THE WAGES OF SIN AR DEATH, AND JUST AS YOU CANNOT CONFESS ANY RIGHTEOUSNESS YOU DID BEFORE FAITH IN CHRIST YOU ALSO LIKEWISE CANNOT CONFESS ANY UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IF YOU ARE IN HIM..
Romans 6:20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
THE GIFT OF GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD, NONE DID GOOD OR SOUGHT AFTER GOD, NOW JUSTIFIED FREELY BY HIS GRACE, THE REMISSION OF SINS THAT ARE PAST, AND CHRIST IS JUST AND THE JUSTIFIER OF HIM THAT BELIEVETH IN JESUS, AND IF WE SAY WE HAVE NOT SINNED WE LIE, SO WE CONFESS THE SINS THAT ARE PAST AND BE JUSTIFIED..
Romans 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Romans 3:24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
PAUL WAS SAUL, AND HE NAMES HIMSELF CHIEF SINNER. HE OBTAINED MERCY AS THAT CHIEF SINNER FOR THE SAME CAUSE, SO THAT CHRIST CAN SHOW A PATTERN OF ALL LONGSUFFERING IN PAUL (HOLY APOSTLE PAUL IS REMEMBERING THE PAST WHEN HE ORIGINALLY OBTAINED THAT MERCY) AND EXHORTS TIMOTHY TO WAR A GOOD WARFARE, HOLDING FAITH AND A GOOD CONSCIENCE..
1 Timothy 1:15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
18 This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare;
19 Holding faith, and a GOOD CONSCIENCE; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:
THE SAME WEAPONS OF PAUL'S WARFARE ARE NOT CARNAL, BUT CASTING DOWN THROUGH GOD IMAGINATIONS AND EVERY HIGH THING THAT EXALTS ITSELF AGAINST THE KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST AND BRINGING INTO SUBJECTION EVERY THOUGHT TO THE OBEDIENCE OF CHRIST, BECAUSE THERE IS RESURRECTION NOT JUST OF THE UNJUST BUT OF THE JUST TOO, AND SO NOW PAUL STILL CHIEF SINNER OR NOW EXERCISES HIMSELF TO HAVE ALWAYS A CONSCIENCE WITHOUT OFFENCE TO GOD OR MAN?
2 Corinthians 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
Acts 24:15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have ALWAYS A CONSCIENCE VOID TO OFFENCE toward God, and toward men.
WHO ARE THESE WEAK BROTHERS who are overtaken in faults, needing to confess their sins, needing to be converted and changed where all old is passed away AND ALL BECOME NEW?
They are not THE SPIRITUAL, they are THE CARNAL..
1 Corinthians 3:And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were NOT ABLE TO BEAR IT, neither yet now are ye able.
3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
Galatians 6:1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, YE WHICH ARE SPIRITUAL, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
The weak also are listed with the unruly, and the feebleminded..
1 Thessalonians 5:14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
THEY ARE WEAK IN THE FAITH..
Romans 14:1 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.
WE STAND BY STRONG FAITH NOT WEAK
1 Corinthians 16:13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.
Romans 11:20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
The weak are not edified, neither strong in the faith nor spiritual, they are not standing yet..
Romans 15:1 We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
2 Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification.
When born of God they must have strong faith, because we are supposed to believe the promises, as testified here, or it is testified to you for nothing, NOT BEING WEAK IN FAITH, NOT CONSIDERING DOUBT, NOT STAGGERING AT THE PROMISES OF GOD, BUT BEING STRONG IN FAITH GIVING GLORY TO GOD
Romans 4:19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb:
20 HE STAGGERED NOT AT THE PROMISES OF GOD THROUGH UNBELIEF, BUT WAS STRONG IN FAITH, giving glory to God;
2 Corinthians 7:1 HAVING THEREFORE THESE PROMISES, dearly beloved, LET US CLEANSE OURSELVES FROM ALL FILTHINESS OF THE FLESH AND SPIRIT, PERFECTING HOLINESS IN THE FEAR OF GOD.
Hebrews 6:12 That ye BE NOT SLOTHFUL, BUT FOLLOWERS OF THEM WHO THROUGH FAITH AND PATIENCE INHERIT THE PROMISES.
2 Peter 1:3 According as HIS DIVINE POWER hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
4 Whereby are given unto us EXCEEDING GREAT AND PRECIOUS PROMISES: THAT BY THESE YE MIGHT BE PARTTAKERS OF THE DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
5 And beside this, GIVING ALL DILLIGENCE, ADD TO YOUR FAITH VIRTUE; and to virtue knowledge;
6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 BUT HE THAT LACKETH THESE THINGS IS BLIND, AND CANNOT SEE AFAR OFF, AND HATH FORGOTTEN THAT HE WAS PURGED FROM HIS OLD SINS.
10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
THE WEAK ALSO ARE SICKLY, NOT HEALED AND THE NEXT STAGE IS DEATH, WHICH LISTENING TO THESE FALSE TEACHERS BRINGS US DEATH TOO..
1 Corinthians 11:27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
30 FOR THIS CAUSE MANY ARE WEAK AND SICKLY AMONG YOU, and many sleep.
