Ephesians 4:
Sisters & Brothers In The One True God,
Times they are a changing and at an accelerated rate, so rather than being tossed to and fro within the chaos of Covid-19, along with what The Apostle Paul called, 'Teachings Of Demons & Doctrines Of Devils,' we MUST Stand Firm in our Faith. James exhorts us to not think it strange, the firey trials that we have been, are and shall go through, since we are in The Refiners Fire, being purified, so that we may be found blameless, a spotless and wrinkle free Bride Of Christ/Messiah in the coming days ahead. No matter your doctrinal stance, there's no doubt that 'The Church' has gone through some of the most trying times in all of world history, but through it all Prayer has increased, although I'm not certain that those who have ears to hear have listened to what The Holy Spirit said or properly responded. Instead of raging against the machine, too many of us have forgotten the gift and call on our lives that is irrevocable, mainly to Preach, Teach, Heal, Seek & Save The Lost, snatching others out of the fire!
After attending the NM Prays meeting in ABQ with Andrew and Norine Brunson https://www.wavestarters.org it became more obvious to the 104 attendees that more challenges were ahead. Challenge #1 would be, "Is Jesus The ONLY Way?" and challenge #2, "Will we hold faithful and true to God's Holy & Precious Word, Will & Way?" The above portion of Holy Script shows us God's take on 'ONE,' so let us decide here and now to go His Way and not the ways of the world or even the biblical reality of Judges, where everyone just does what is right in their own eyes, depending on whatever your truth is. The world is going to do what the world does and many of the problems we're facing today are the result of 'the church' not continuing to shine God's Light in the darkness, but falling asleep at the wheel and wondering why we're about to crash. Without sounding like a complete doomsdayer, we are not without hope, even though the end of the world will come and I believe sooner than later. The Bible says, "Light Shines Best In The Darkness" (John 1) and "The Path Of The Righteous Shines Ever Brighter, Until The Full Light Of His Soon Coming Day" (Proverbs 4), so let us come together in this ever changing world in which we live in and lift Jesus HIGHER, so that He Will Draw ALL of Humankind Unto HIMSELF!
In the midst of internet censorship and laws being passed to silence 'The Church,' we MUST Stand United In His Truth + Keep The Bond Of His Shalom, Peace, Wholeness, Fullness and Blessings, working together to make the WHOLE Successful! Perhaps in this day and age the above song by The Grandfather Of Christian Rock, Larry Norman or the closing quote below by Oswald Chambers will be an offense or even considered, "HATE SPEECH,"
- abusive or threatening speech or writing that expresses prejudice against a particular group, especially on the basis of race, religion, or sexual orientation."we don't tolerate any form of hate speech"), although The Bible says that The Cross Is An OFFENSE To Those That Are PERISHING (apart from Christ).
Hebrews 11:1Amplified Bible
The Triumphs of Faith
11 Now
faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for
(divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen [the
conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact what cannot be
experienced by the physical senses].
How does This Faith Come?
Romans 10:17Amplified Bible
17 So faith comes from hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the [preaching of the] message concerning Christ.
ONE Baptism! Should we argue over sprinkling or dipping, running or standing water? What does John The Baptiser say?
Matthew 3:11-12Amplified Bible
11 “As for me, I baptize you [a]with
water because of [your] repentance [that is, because you are willing to
change your inner self—your old way of thinking, regret your sin and
live a changed life], but He (the Messiah) who is coming after me is
mightier [more powerful, more noble] than I, whose sandals I am not
worthy to remove [even as His slave]; He will baptize you [who truly
repent] with the Holy Spirit and [you who remain unrepentant] with [b]fire (judgment). 12 His [c]winnowing
fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear out His threshing
floor; and He will gather His wheat (believers) into His barn (kingdom),
but He will burn up the chaff (the unrepentant) with unquenchable
fire.”
Are
you truly repentant or do you remain unrepentant? What does God's Word
say about His wheat (Believers) or what He will do to the chaff (the
unrepentant)? Is His Word Faithful & True? Does He watch over His
Word to Perform IT? HE IS The ONE GOD & Father Of us ALL, Who IS
Sovereign Over ALL & Working Through ALL and Living In ALL who are
HIS.
John 14:6-7Amplified Bible
6 Jesus said to him, “[a]I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.
Oswald
Chambers said, "Jesus is the "Prince of Peace" because 'ONLY' in Him
can men (humankind) have God's good-will and peace on earth. Thank God,
through that beloved Son the great peace of God may come to 'EVERY'
heart and to 'EVERY' nation under heaven, but it can come in 'NO' other
Way. None of us can 'EVER' have good-will toward God if we won't listen
to His Son. The 'ONLY' Way to peace and salvation and power, and to
'ALL' that God has in 'The Way' of benedictions and blessings for us
individually and for the 'WHOLE' world, Is In The Son Of Man."
May ALL Glory, Praise & Honor Go To The ONE True GOD!
