“PREVAILING-PROMISES,…FOR-THE-GRASPING!”…

Tell me, dear-reader and friends. Who-of-us, can’t relate to our,…Apostle-Paul; when he speaks-about, not understanding his own,…actions?...(read, Romans 7:15).

He, (like-many-of-us), finds himself,…doing, what he, (Paul); hates the most. Yes, more often than,…what he, would otherwise; want-to-do,…instead!...

Don’t we all, possess the desire,…to do, what-is-right; but, also,…lack-many-times,…(more-than-not); the ability, or intestinal-fortitude,…to carry it: out?...(verse, 18).

Yes, Evil,…seems-to-run; in our veins. As we, find ourselves,…almost-never; doing the, (“good”); that we really, want-to-do!…(verse, 19).

Although, we’ve come-to-delight,…in the truths, of Almighty-God, (as Jesus’-Faithful-Followers); our flesh-and-blood, bodies,…constantly, wages-war: against, our very own,…inner-spirit!...(verses, 22-23).

Yes, such is this power-of-sin!...(verse, 25).

Can we strive, with certainty,…to walk; no longer, in the flesh. But-rather, according to the leading,…of the; Holy-Spirit?...(read, Romans 8:1). Oh’, how I pray,…so!... Amen.

I must confess, that my devotion,…focuses-much, on the highlighting; of Jesus’ own,…role!... Everywhere, I see the opportunity,…I stress, to you; the uniqueness, between the Father,…and: His Son!...(Jesus-of-Nazareth).

We were forewarned, with regards,…to-the,…(”Great-Apostasy”)!…

And, its presence,…is; right-inside, the very,…institutions: of higher-learning. Yes, the religious-order,…of the day; have managed, to dupe,…millions-of-people: for centuries, on end!...

It’s the way, of our biggest Adversary,…(Satan), himself!...

Cunning-as-serpents,…yet,…gentle-as-doves!... His, our very,…subtle-ways. This Dark-One, and his-insurgents,…have-delved; in the things, of God,…from: day-one!...

Folks, we can’t run-around,…repeating, popular-phrases; like what this world, has taught us,…to utter: “The Bible, is the infallible,…Word-of-God!”…

Wisdom, dictates differently. Yes, our God-given-reasoning,…has been; completely neglected. We are more-than, mere animals. Who, simply act-upon,…instinct. God, has set-us-apart,…and has, placed-us; in a much-higher-plane, of existence!...

Our reasoning, sets-us-apart, (Sanctifies and makes us, Holy); because of this, (“gift-and-ability”), to discern-well,…all-things!...

Mankind, bound this wonderful,…Book, (our Bible)!.... But, it wasn’t done,…(“free-off”); the Devil’s own, delving into its,…many: written-pages, of old!...

Only those, who have devoted,…their time-and-diligence; can truly appreciate, and confer with,…these: mentioned, truths. Jesus, was sent-down to us,…by, His own God; and Father-in-Heaven!...(Jehovah, His-Precious-Name).

Folks, let’s not-ever-deny,…the Son; His own, demonstrated Valor,…in accomplishing; all-that-was, ever,…asked of Him: to fulfill, (by His Father)…(read, Romans 8: 3)…

Jesus, is,…(Not); God, Himself!...

May we, continually keep,…our hearts-and-minds; focused, on the very-things,…of the Spirit!... For, they are Eternal. Whereas, by contrast,…the things, of the flesh; are-but, most fleeting-and-temporal.

Yes, like vapors-rising,…up; to the clouds, above. Most brief, in its duration,…is-our-stay; here, within this,…dispensation: of time!... Amen.

Yes, we are asked,…a great-deal; by our living-God!...

Many, lofty-expectations,…have been; set-forth, to us. And, for our,…grasping. Many, know,…all-too-well; that, putting-away,…the deeds, of our body; is-all-but, an impossible task,…at times!...

No, it cannot be,…fully-achieve. Why?... For, the inner-spirit,…of each, human-being; is most-willing. Although-the-flesh, is most,…weak!...

Just ask, our Apostle-Paul,…about-that; (“thorn”), in his side!...

Yes, we all have something,…and/or; someone, whom always seems to be,…nagging us: in some-way, shape or form. And, we all,…experience; over-whelming,…(”odds-and-obstacles”),…daily!...

But, know-also,…this, one truth!...

Putting forth, your earnest-effort,…in all, the things-of-God; will yield, (without a doubt), many-rewards. For, our Creator,…stands-back, and sees; all-things!... Amen.

Yes, including those who,…choose, to simply; sit-and-be,…idle.

I pray, that: “You, brothers-and-sisters,…in our Faith; succumb-humbly, daily,…to the leading: of our, Supreme-Being!... Yes, just like the Son,…has, taught-us; to do so!”… Amen.

Let us, approach the very-foot,…of; God’s-Throne, in a state,…of: total-surrender. And, with much,…sincerity. You-too, shall find that,…our Maker; will take, the same-amount,…of steps, towards you; as you, are freely-willing,…to take: towards, Him!...

No, He’s-not-partial,…to; any person. But, He does-show,…much-favor; to those, who truly demonstrate,…Love: for Him!... Will you, give all the Glory,…to God, today?... Oh’, how I pray,…so!... Amen.

Yes, Bless-Him,…with your lips; and in turn, unspeakable riches,…will await-you: right-inside, His Kingdom!... Although, today,…we-stand; (“not-yet-possessors”), of such,…promises.

Never-the-less, I-for-one,…trust, fully; in our Father, and His Son!... Amen.

Izzy!...

“FOREVER-AND-EVER,…AMEN!”…

Friends, the,…(“TRINITY-DOCTRINE”),…erroneously-teaches-that; the Father, the Son and the,…Holy-Spirit; are all, three-in-one,…person!...

Hog-wash!... Our Bible, states otherwise. So, do the members of Christ’s-early-Church!...(read, Romans 8:17).

Keep always-in-mind, that when we use,…this word,…(“AND”); it relates to, having incorporated,…and/or; to having added, something-or-someone,…else: unto, a-given-scene!...

Yes, we are heirs,…(“OF”),…God!...

(“AND”),…fellow-heirs, with Christ-Jesus!...(verse, 17). Clearly, two-separate-entities,…are being, mentioned; here.

Folks, we live a true-hope,…although, not-seen; by the naked-eye. Regardless, our adoption as,…Sons-of-God; we await, most-patiently!...(verses, 23_25).

It is, the will of God, (Jehovah, His-Excellent-Name),…that-the, Holy-Spirit; intercede for us, (the sanctified and/or; set-apart-ones),…simply-because, often-times: we do not-know, what to pray for,…as-we-ought!...

Jesus, taught us,…that-this; Holy-Spirit, is indeed,…(“ANOTHER,…COMFORTER”)!... Again, Jesus,…speaks-here, of a separate entity; apart from, His Father,…and, from: Himself!...

Yes, the,…(“Holy-Spirit”),…is apart,…separate, and uniquely-proper; from the Father and His,…Son!...(Jesus-of-Nazareth).

Although, all-three,…are,…One-in-Love!... One-in-Cause!... One-in-Vision!... And, One-in-Mindset,…with-their; established mission…(that of, offering humanity,…Salvation: as a free-gift)… Amen.

Dear-reader and friends, it is,…Almighty-God, Who; ultimately-justifies, our entering into,…His-Kingdom!...(verse, 33).

In, (verse, 34); clearly-we-see, the Son’s own position,…today. Jesus, is,…(Not),…God, Himself!... But, rather,…He, (Jesus); stands at His Father’s own, right-hand. Yes, a celestial-position of,…(“great-power”)!...

And, from this position,…Jesus, still; intercedes-and-mediates, for all of mankind!...

Friends, although the Son,…has ascended-back; unto His Father’s side, Jesus did not leave us,…without, protection; from this,…(“Evil-One”),…Lucifer: himself!...

Hence-forth,…(“ANOTHER,…COMFORTER”),…was commanded, by Christ; to remain down-here, on Earth,…with-much-permanence: until the Son’s-own-return!...(Jesus’-2nd-Advent)…

Even-so, we are expected to undergo,…our-own, sufferings!...(back-track, just a bit; and read, verses: 17-18).

These-things, must occur. It teaches us, the necessary values,…between, being distant; from our Deity, (Jehovah),…versus, seeing ourselves; anew,…in the, New-World: to-yet-come!...

It, will-be-then,…that, humanity; will once-again, walk-with-God!...(after the Millennial-Era).

Yes, in the very-cool,…of each,…afternoon!... Amen.

Meanwhile, nothing will separate us, (Jesus’-Faithful-Followers),…from; “God’s-True-Love!”...

Both, the Son and the Holy-Spirit,…although-separate-entities; function much, in the same-way,…with regards, to: interceding-and-mediating, for the whole-of-humanity!...

The Big-Difference, is that,…Jesus’; shed-and-atoning, blood,…is-what-has, made: an atonement, for us,…(who-believe). This sacrificial-act, has reconciled us back,…to a real; dearness-and-nearness, with our Creator!...

The Son, fulfilled the Father’s own,…criteria, and set-forth-terms; for humanity’s,…Salvation-Sake!...

Yes, in God’s own eyes,…today; we-stand, completely,…(“JUSTIFIED”),…to enter, there-into: His promised, Eternal-Kingdom!...

Where, Christ-Jesus,…shall-preside-over; David’s-Throne!... Yes, right-inside,…His-Father’s-Kingdom!...

For, the Power, the Glory and the Dominion,…is all, God’s!... (“FOREVER-AND-FOREVER,…AMEN”)!...

Izzy!...

“OH’,…HOW-I-PRAY,…SO!”…

Friends, here is where I have some,…(“personal-issues”); with how, our Bible has been transcribed-and-translated!... In the Book-of-John, I also happen to disagree,…with the complete, sentence-structure; found in,…(John 1:1)..

Please, read,…(Romans 9:5)...

Christ-Jesus, has indeed been appointed as,…King; to preside over, David’s-Throne,…in the, New-Jerusalem: as promised, by Almighty-God!...(Jehovah, His-Glorious-Name).

But, in this mentioned-verse,…I believe, those in charge; of scribing the original-manuscripts, from one language,…unto-another: have, indeed,…(“gravely-err”)!...

“To them, (meaning, the Israelites mentioned, in the previous verse: 4), belong the patriarchs,…and from their race, (meaning, the Jews); according to the flesh, is the Christ,…who-is-God, over all: blessed-forever!”…

Let’s keep in mind, that it is,…our Apostle-Paul; speaking-here. He, admits that,…it is, his own conscience; which bears him, witness!...(back-track, to Romans 9:1).

In other-words, in his best-judgment,…and/or opinion; Paul, (inspired-or-not), believes Jesus,…to be: as a god!...

Yes, this here,…is an,…”expressed-declaration!”…

A real,…“figure-of-speech!”… Made, by a man called,…Paul…(a once-before-known, true persecutor,…of: Jesus’-Followers)…

This is, by-no-means,…Jesus’, own; quoted-utterances. I’ve always, said that,…anyone, is entitled; to their own, personal-opinions,…with regards; to having, expressions-about,…who-they-believe: that, Jesus,…is!...

Another-example, is when our,…(”Doubting-Thomas”); placed his hand, in the side,…of: Jesus’-own,…Resurrected-Body!...

In that, instance,…Thomas, (“expressed-himself”); with the following, words: (“MY-LORD,…AND,…MY-GOD”)!...

Again, this is simply,…”figurative-speech!”…

But, folks,…the, (Religionists); have erroneously, created whole,…”Doctrinal-Beliefs”: out of such, figurative-speech!...

When, truth-be-known,…Jesus, own-utterances; always outweigh, (by-far), what mankind’s own,…fabricated-fables: have produced, throughout the,…”centuries-of-old!”…

Yes, Jesus has been,…”Blessed-Forever!”… But, by whom?... You need, to ask yourself,…this question?...

(Please read, Romans 9:5)…

The answer: Why, it is,…no-other-than; Jesus’-own, God,…and: Father-in-Heaven!...(Jehovah)…(read, verse: 16). Yes, everything depends upon,…the very, will-of-God; (not-on, any man-made: exertions)…(Romans 9:16)…

Folks, God’s-Mercy,…dictates, much; of His own, Elections!...

Yes, to include,…who-shall; be called. And, who-shall-be,…drawn-near: to His only,…begotten: Son!...(Jesus-of-Nazareth). We are asked, by God,…to; listen-well, to what His Son,…has-to-say!…

Are you?... Oh’, how I pray,…so!... Amen.

(Please-read, Romans 9:11)…

Yes, friends!... The Son, is truly,…The-Way!... But, our truest-destination,…has always-been; the very foot, of God’s own,…(“Throne-of-Judgment”)!...

The Scriptures, say-that,…Jesus, was raised; from-the-Dead, to show,…God’s-Power!... Yes, a Resurrection-Power,…very-much, a transferrable-power; which God, shares with-whom,…He: so-ever-wills!...

And, when all-ends-meet,…each-day; it’s all-about, giving God,…(“ALL-THE-GLORY”)!...

All, that the Son,…ever, did-or-said; boils down, to,…(“one-sole-purpose”)!... Yes, to give God,…always, the Glory!...

Are we, today,…doing-all-things; for the Good, of God’s own,…Name?... Are we, spreading,…His-Holy-Name?… And, proclaiming it,…all-throughout; the four-corners, of this Earth?...

Will, all-the-Earth,…inherently-come; to know, Him?... Oh’, how I pray,…so!... Amen.

“THE-FABRIC,…OF,…OUR-FAITH!”…

Friends, notice-well,…how, our Apostle-Paul; claims that, Almighty-God, (Jehovah, His-Precious-Name),…has Mercy, on; whom-ever, God,…wills!...

And, how God,…also-hardens, the very hearts; of whom-ever, He,…wills!...(read, Romans 9:18).

Perhaps, Paul,…here, is looking-back; on his own, life and past, (yes, a well-known; persecutor of Jews)!...

In, (verse, 21); Paul, speaks-about God, (as being, likened to a Potter). Paul, speaks-about,…God’s, ability; to make, out-of-the-same,…(”lump-of-clay”); one vessel, for honorable use. And, another-vessel,…for; dishonorable use!...

I believe, in Paul’s specific-case,…that; he was used, by God,…for both: (honorable-and-dishonorable, purposes)!…

Yes, God, (thru-His-Son, Jesus), made known,…His-Power!... How?... He, struck-down,…Paul. Blinding him, for three-days!...(as Paul, journeyed to Damascus; questing to persecute, Christ-Followers)…

Yes, both the Father and His Son,…had, endured, (with-much-patience); the multiple-aggressions, carried-out,…by Paul: against, his-fellow-brethren. Paul, was scorned-severely,…(in-many-ways); but-he-never, was fully,…destroyed!...

Yes, this Apostle,…endured; both the adversities, of the pagans,…as well; all the future, tests-and-trials,…appointed: by God!... Little, did Paul,…know, that-he; was a, chosen-vessel. Yes, and,…about-to-face, many; “honorable-and-dishonorable”,…events!...(All, for the Glory-of-God)!…(verse, 22).

Unbeknown, by Paul,…he, was being prepared; to ultimately qualify, as one,…(“Justified”); by the very, shed-and-atoning, blood,…of: God’s-own-Son!...(Jesus-of-Nazareth)…(verse, 23).

Three-days-later, (after being-blinded, by a great-light; at Paul’s encounter, with Jesus); our living-God, sent Paul,…one, of: His very-own, Prophets!...(Ananias)…

This Prophet, fulfilled-God’s-request,…by going; to the city, of Damascus. The Prophet,…(“laid-hands”),…on Paul,…and; restored his sight, completely!...

From, that Day,…forward; Paul began his own, public-ministry,…defending-and-teaching: the gospel-message, of Jesus!...

Yes, he became,…a Holy-Spirit; (“inspired”),…man-of-God!... Paul, ends-up being,…one of those; vessels-of-Mercy!...

As, he taught-and-healed,…while, inspiring-and-leading; countless others, into establishing,…what-we-recognize, today: as the early-church, of Christ-Jesus!...(and, its: many-member-body)…Amen.

*Especially, consisting of Gentiles!...

That’s-right!... God, spares-not,…His-Rod!... His calling, is not-always-welcomed,…nor, answered; willingly. But, eventually,…our; truest-purpose, and role,…in this present-life, (with God’s-Help): is finally realized, in-one,…shape-or-form!...

So, help us,…God!...

Dear-reader and friends, you-too,…are part, of this; immense-puzzle. Yes!... Each one of us, collectively become the,…(“sum-of-the-whole”); when it comes, to God’s own purpose,…and-plan. Yes, each-of-us,…is; uniquely-fitted!...

Yes, shaped-and-formed,…differently, and often-times; in unimaginable-ways!... Yet, when all-ends-meet,…we, (Jesus’-Faithful-Followers); become as, One!...

Yes, One-in-Love!... One-in-Unity!... One-in-Cause,…and,…Vision!... And, One-in-Mindset,…in this, appointed; mission…

We are, to realize-that,…without, God; in our personal-lives, we become as,…(“Nothing”)!... Only, with the Father and His Son,…inter-woven; into the very fabric, of our Faith,…can-we-then, truly-become-believers: in the eternal-promises, of our,…tomorrows!... Amen.

“TO-YOU,…THE-DISOBEDIENT!”…

Friends, how true,…still; are the very words, of our Apostle-Paul…(please-read, Romans 10:2).

There are so-many, truly,…God-fearing-folks, out there; very much, well-intended. Yes, church-going and so,…full-of-kindness. These very same, possess a real-zeal,…for, God!...(Jehovah, His-Mighty-Name).

But, not according to knowledge!...

I speak-mainly-about,…those, who-stand; behind their, pompous-pulpits,…seeking, only: to establish their own,…”Righteousness!”… Never, are they really-submitting to,…God’s-own; Supreme-Authority!...(verse, 3).

Tell-me, dear-reader and friends,…who-are-we, (but-mere-humans); to judge, as to who goes,…to Heaven-or-Hell?... Let’s remember, that-the-Dead,…really-know-nothing; as they remain, in a total-state of,…deep-sleep!.. (it’s how, our Jesus; refers to the Dead, countless times: all-throughout, Scripture)…

Until, the very,…Day-and-Hour; in which, they shall hear,…Jesus’-Voice: commanding them, to,…Rise!...

Know this, Biblical-Truth!... Only, the Son-of-God, (Jesus-of-Nazareth); has-both, descended-and-ascended,…from Heaven: and the Abyss!...(verses, 6-7).

We, (Jesus’-Faithful-Followers); who-have, already died,…await: the Son’s-Voice!...

And, those of us,…who-are-alive, (at Jesus’-2nd-Advent); shall-be-changed, in a twinkling,…of an eye: into another, incorruptible-existence. Yes, no longer,…flesh-and-blood; but-one-that, resembles Jesus’ own Body,…today!...(Resurrected-and-Transfigured)…

Why?... Because, “flesh-and-blood”,…cannot-inherit, this promised; Kingdom-of-God!...(this is also, most; Biblically-True)…

Yes, another dimensional-existence,…(if-you-will).

Meanwhile, millions,…for centuries-on-end; have-been, completely duped,…into believing, that; upon, Death,…we instantly, ascend; to Heaven,…and/or,…descend: to Hell.

Folks, to be,…”Absent from our bodies, is to be present,…with, Almighty-God!”…

Yes, but,…in; the Spirit!... For, the spirit-of-mankind,…represents; our-truest-intellect. It is, the whole,…make-up, and structure; of who, we have-been,…while walking: this Earth!...

It is the, (“spirit”), which returns,…to the,…(“Source”); from whence, we came!...

The spirit-of-mankind, defines,…our personality; our character, our physical-features,…and, it-also-includes; all the memories, of who,…and-what, we were,…and did: while in our, fleshly-journey!...

All-of-this, is what,…returns; to,…God!...

And, upon our Resurrection,…it is then; that-these virtues, and lasting-worth,…are re-instated, (if-you-will): into our-new, incorruptible-bodies,…as promised!...

The,…(“Religionist”),…forgets-that; we all, must-pass-thru,…God’s-Judgment, (accomplished by His Son, our appointed; King)!..

Only, after,…(and, not-before); the Resurrection occurs, will-we-then,…all-know: our ultimate, fate!... Yes, the goats shall be separated,…from,…the sheep!...

There will be, present,…(“a-great-gulf”)!...

The purpose, of this gulf,…is to keep-separated; the purposely-defiant, and unruly-ones,…from those-who; otherwise are called,…”Obedient-Children”: of Almighty-God!...

Meanwhile, our Creator,…forebears-and-patiently, waits; for each one of us, to,…”Confess with our mouths, that Jesus,…is our Lord, (Ruler, over our; personal-lives); and that, we believe,…God; to have raised, His-Son,…from-among: the Dead!”…Amen. (verse, 9).

Folks!... That’s-the-ticket,…to our, Salvation!...

For, with the heart,…we-believe; and are ultimately,…(“Justified”)!...

And, with our mouths,…we-confess; and are finally,…(“Saved”)!...

Yes, our Faith,…is to be, sealed; by the public-act, of confession. But, no one can believe,…if they, haven’t-heard; about, Jesus’-gospel-message!...

So, who-of-us,…will spread; (“THE,…WORD”)?...(verse, 10).

Yes, Faith comes from hearing. And, hearing,…from; the Word-of-Christ!...(verse, 17).

Notice-well, it reads,…the, (“WORD,…OF,…CHRIST”)!... For, this-too,…has been, twisted; and made perverse. Many, repeat this verse,…incorrectly; it’s not, the word-of-God!…

But, the Son’s-Word,…talking-about, His own God; and, Father-in-Heaven!...(Jehovah - and/or – Yahweh; if you prefer).

In closing,…”May we-never, be found,…to-be-a,…(disobedient-and-contrary),…people!”… Amen. (verse, 21).

“TO-YOU,…THE-ADVANCED-STUDENT!”…

Yes, friends. Keep-Hope-Alive!...

There’s still, a remnant-class of believers,…chosen by; God’s-Good-Grace!...(Jehovah, His-Marvelous-Name)…

Please-read, (Romans 11:5)…

Many-are-those, who fail to obtain,…what-they, are seeking. And, it’s primarily-because,…they, have-hardened; both their, hearts-and-minds!...(verse, 7). Who-of-us, sees themselves,…as-being, one of; God’s-own, very Elect?...

Yes, down to this very-day,…millions, are-those; who have been, (“over-shadowed”),…by, the very: “Spirit-of-Stupor!”…(verse, 8).

Sent-of-God, to those,…who-have-freely, chosen; to believe, spoon-fed-lies. Yes,…(“Doctrines-of-Devils”); devised by, ravenous-wolves all dressed-in,…sheep’s-clothing. Fabricated-Fables, like the age-old,…(”Rapture-Theory”),…and-the,…(“Trinity-Teachings”)!...

These very same, have their spiritual-sight,…darkened; simply-because, they do not,…ask, knock,…nor, seek-truth: for themselves. Remember-always, that we are asked,…by God, Himself; to examine-well, all things.

Please-note, that our living-God,…is both, kind-and-severe!...(verse, 22).

Let us, choose to be,…”grafted-in”,…alongside, this; (“remnant-class of people)!... Yes, these,…God, calls; His-Very-Elect!... (verse, 23).

God, allows a partial-hardening,…to continue; among the Israelites. Until, He’s convinced-and-satisfied,…that-the; rest of the, Gentile-World,…has-had, their opportunity: to enter-into, our exercised,…Faith!...(verse, 25).

Just remember, this one-truth!...

The gifts and the calling, of Almighty-God,…are, indeed; irrevocable!...(verse, 29). Will you, (dear-reader and friends), give all the Glory,…to God, today?... Oh’, how I pray,…so!... Amen. (verse, 36).

Our spiritual-worship, (our love-and-loyalty), is what God,…desires-most; from each and every-one, of us…(read, Romans 12:1). Notice-well, that it is,…by, (“Testing-You”); that God, transforms us. Yes, His renewal of our hearts-and-minds,…is done, by; sending us, many trials!...(verse, 2).

It’s the only-way, we ultimately come-to-discern,…well, all-things!...

Yes, we are to,…(“Think”),…with, sober-judgment. Each one of us, has been assigned,…our-own, measure; of Faith!...

So, yes!... It’s okay, to,…”Judge-All-Things!”… But, do-so,…soberly!...(verse, 3). Each decision-making, effort,…is-an-act, of Judgment; on-our-behalf. Many people, get-hung-up,…on, (“Not-Judging”),…others!...

So, that,…they won’t be, Judged; in return. But, that’s referring to using,…ill-judgment. Yes, many-rush to find-faults,…in others; without removing, their own,…(“Plank”): from their eyes!...

Hence, we tend to never-really,…take the time; to see, all-things,…as they, truly are: but, as they,…(“seem”), to appear!...

Acting, on fogged-findings,…is the complete, opposite; of acting, with,…(“Sober-Judgment”)!...

Yes, each of us,…make-many, Judgment-Calls; daily. And, when we utilize, (appropriately),…God’s-Given-Reasoning; we are seen, as being,…Sober: towards all-things!...

In closing, remember-always,…that, just as the; (Body-of-Christ), consist of many-members,…individually: we are also, members,…one: of another. Yes, each-of-us,…uniquely-proper. Just like, two snow-flakes,…are never; exactly the same!...

Yet, they are all,…possessing; the same constituents, found in our,…frozen-water!... Amen.

“JUST-DO,…WHAT-IS-HONORABLE!”…

Friends, follow-me,…as together, we read; (Romans 12:4,5,6)…

“For, as in one-body,…we have, many-members; and the members, do not all,…have the same, function; so-we, (Jesus’-Faithful-Followers), though many,…are-one-body: in Christ-Jesus!... And, individually,…members; one-of-another!”…(verses, 4-5).

“Having gifts, that differ,…according to the, Grace; given to us, (by our Creator; Jehovah, His-Precious-Name), let us,…use them, in proportion: to our exercised-faith!”…(verse, 6).

Folks, the same is true,…of our, celestial-realm. The Father, the Son and the,…Holy-Spirit; do not, all-have,…the same, function. Although, they-three, (3),…are-indeed, members; one-of-another!...

Yes, two-of-them,…(The Son and the, Holy-Spirit); possess gifts, (and/or powers), according to the Grace,…given, unto them: by our Creator, of all-things!...(Jehovah, His-Most-Excellent-Name)…

Yes, dear-reader and friends. All-things, are ultimately,…proportioned, according to; God’s will, purpose-and-plan!... Amen.

In this case, Father, Son and,…Holy-Spirit; all three, (3), who,…love: being-genuine. As they, remain uniquely-proper, (as I have, always shared-with-you; in my previous, writings)…

Yes, each,…abhors, (or hates); all that represents, Evil… Each, holds-fast,…to all, that; represents what is, (“Good”)!...(verse, 9).

Both, the Son, (Jesus-of-Nazareth), and the,…Holy-Spirit; are found, never-to-be,…slothful-in-zeal. But, rather,…are both, always; fervent-in-spirit, serving their Creator!...(verse, 11). Are you?... Oh’, how I pray,…so!...

Tell me, dear-reader and friends. Are, not,…both, Jesus; and the Holy-Spirit, (“constant-in-prayer”)?...(verse, 12). Answer: Of course, they are. As both, continually intercede-and-mediate,…between, mankind; and our Maker!...

Why?... Because, often-times,…we, ourselves; do not know, for what,...nor, how-to-pray: as we ought. So, again,…I plead, with you; to always, examine-well,…our, Holy-Scriptures!... Yes, pray for spiritual-clarity,…which-will; dispel all confusion!...

Have God, give-to-you,…each, according to; the very level, of your exercised-faith!... the Light, of our Father’s-Truths,…displaces, all darkness; created by the Devil’s-own-deeds!...

And, remember-always,…to-do; what-is-honorable, in the sight-of-all…Amen. (Romans 12:17)…

“GUARD-AGAINST,…FLAUNTING-OUR-FAITH!”…

Friends, let’s continue our study of the,…Book-of-Romans!...(read, Romans 14: 10,11,12)…

“For, we will all-stand,…before, the Judgment-Seat; of Almighty-God!...(Jehovah, His-Wonderful-Name)…(verse, 10).

“As I live, (says-our-Lord, Jesus-the-Christ); every knee, shall bow to,…Me. (“AND”),…every-tongue, shall confess to,…God!”… (His Father-in-Heaven)… (verse, 11).

Yes, read-it-carefully,…and, discern-well; (“all-things”). We, bow-a-knee,…to our appointed, King!...(Jesus-of-Nazareth).

But, our confessions,…are-to-be, done; to our living-God!...(Who, is Judge; over-all-things).

Folks, confession involves, the giving,…of-an-account; regarding, ourselves,…to: our Creator!...(verse, 12). More-so, than confessing to a,…priest, (whose-just, another man; masquerading, as an-agent,…of God).

Yes, our Jesus is,…indeed, mentioned; in other areas, of our Bible,…as-being: our Judge!... But, notice-well,…that, our public-confessions; our out-spoken-admission, of faults-and-failures,…and-of- our, many disobediences; this-in-itself, is to be done,…at the, very-foot: of our Maker’s-own, Judgment-Seat!...

(The spiritual-connotations, behind this message,…refers to, the fact; that,…(“confessions”); are a very-private-matter, between,…you: and God)!... It’s why, we’re asked to pray-in-private,…even; inside our closets, (if necessary)…

Yes,…one-on-one; just you-and-God!... Present and accounted, for…

Remember-always, that there are,…(“two-thrones”),…(read, Revelation 22:3); inside the walls, of our promised,…New-Jerusalem!...

Yes, One-for-God!... (“AND”),…One-for-the-Lamb!...(which, is to say; His-Son, Jesus)!...

If we, liken the Father and His Son,…to the practices-of-old; back in the Roman-Days, there were,…(”Tetrarchs”); who ruled over, parts of certain regions. All of them, ultimately,…under-the-Rule: of Caesar!...(Their-Supreme-Ruler)…

The same is true, of Father-and-Son!... The optimum-authoritative-position, is held by our,…”Most-High-God!”…(Jehovah, and/or Yahweh; if-you-prefer)…

Together, this Father-and- Son,…Team; has always stood, for all that represents,…Peace!... And, for mutual up-building, (or edifying)…(read, Romans 14: 19).

May we all, guard-against,…(“FLAUNTING,…OUR,…FAITH”)!...

Let’s keep it, between ourselves and our Creator,…first-and-foremost. For, only He,…truly-reads; all hearts-and-minds. Let us, never boast-about,…being-better, (in knowledge-and-wisdom); than our-own, brethren in Faith!...

Although, correcting the wrong-teachings,…of others; we must, boldly-bring to light. Yes, many are those,…(”Doctrines-of-Devils”); out there, of which we have been,…forewarned!...

Cunning-serpents, yet,…gentle-as-doves; in their approach, to deceive!...

Some, (the deceived, themselves), are well-intended people. Believing themselves, to be doing,…God’s-Work. With one, exception,…though. They haven’t, examine-well,…all-things!...

Friends, the Devil is wedged,…in all, the details; from day-one, he’s been involved,…in: mankind’s,…matters!...

In closing, let all-things,…from within-and-without; proceed from your, exercised-faith. Don’t forget that,…”Faith-Without-Works”,…is completely, Dead!...(in its, own-tracks).

So, strive in doing something,…(”good”); for someone else, today. Yes, something most unexpected,…and-even-perhaps,…underserved.

Disarm-and-disband, your biggest-enemy,…with, an-act-of; kindness. And, do it,…for the; Glory-of-God!...(first-and-foremost).

Not, for your own,…gain-or-interest!... Let’s follow, the Son’s own,…foot-steps. For, He shows us,…The-Way!...

As, our truest-destination,…remains, at the very-foot; of God’s own,…Judgment-Seat!...(read, Romans 14:10). Amen.

“LET’S-SPEAK,…WITH-ONE-VOICE!”…

Friends, our Apostle-Paul,…was, indeed; a well-learned and studied man, he knew the Scriptures, (as he, was a Pharisee, himself). A special man, in mankind’s own history,…used-and-touched; by God, His Son and the,…Holy-Spirit!...

Yes, Paul was filled with,…much-wisdom!...(please-read, Romans 15:4).

Folks, whatever was written,…in our former-days; was written for the purpose, of our instruction. That, through endurance,…and, through the encouragement; of the Holy-Scriptures, we, (Jesus’-Faithful-Followers): might-have-hope!...(verse, 4).

That, together,…we-may, (“WITH,…ONE,…VOICE”),…and, not; with all these, countless-denominational-groups,…out-there: Glorify-God, in the end…

(“AND”),…this Heavenly-Father, (Jehovah, His Glorious-Name); happens to be, also,…the Father: of our Lord, Jesus-the-Christ!...(verse, 6).

Dear-reader and friends, there is no greater,…blind-person; that, he-or-she,…who, wishes; to not see, the apparent-and-obvious,…Truth!... Discern-well, facts-from-fiction!...

Why, would Paul,…state-that; there is, indeed,…a God, (“AND”),…Father; of our Lord, Jesus,…were-it-not: True?...

Yes, evidence is clear-that,…Father-and- Son, are indeed; two-separate-entities. Each, deserving their own,…Honor-and-Glory!... Each, donning their own,…”Crown-of-Righteousness!”…

Even, as promised unto us,…who-believe!... Amen.

Yes, each,…uniquely-proper; although at the same time, members of the same,…Love, Unity; Vision, Cause, Mindset-and-Mission!... Folks, let us all,…maintain; our sound-conscience. Each, of these three-entities,…use, their-own; Divine-Gifts, (and/or Powers, if you will): in perfect-proportion, to their specific,…functions-and-roles!...

Yes, Father, Son and,…Holy-Spirit!... The celestial-realm, mirrors-and-reflects,…the material-world; verbatim-and-vice-versa!...(please-read, Romans 12:4-6). We are all, individual members,…though, many; within this,…”Family-of-God!”…

So, let us,…(“Stop”); placing the Son, in His Father’s-Shoes!... For, there is only,…One; (“MOST,…HIGH,…GOD”)!... Jehovah and/or Yahweh,…if-you-prefer.

And, One-Mediator,…between, mankind; and our Creator!... He is called, Christ-Jesus!... This, is most-biblically-true.

Let us, do all-things,…for, the; “Glory-of-God!”… And, (Not),…for, our-own; gains and/or interests…(verse, 7). By, Glorifying-God,…in-turn, we receive; His-Mercy!...(verse, 9). Be filled, with the goodness,…that-results; in the very knowledge, of these,…real-truths!...(verse, 14).

This, enables us,…to instruct; one-another!...(verse, 14). We, have reason to be,…proud, (although, misappropriated-pride; is abhorred-by-God); of our laboring-in-love, for our living-God!... And, for His,…Good-Name’s-Sake!... Amen.

We are those, who shall not venture-to-speak,…of anything; except what, Jesus has accomplished,…thru-us: His willing, brothers-and-sisters. Yes, may we bring all,…others; to this necessary, obedience and subjection,…by-both: our words, and our deeds!...

For, Faith,…without-works; is completely dead, in its tracks!...

The Son, was exalted with great-powers,…as a, direct-result; of His exemplary-obedience, in fulfilling His,…Father’s-Will…

In closing, let’s-make-it,…our ambition, (dear-reader); to share this gospel-message. But, not,…on someone-else’s; erroneously-laid-foundation…(please-read, Romans 15:20). And, let us remember,…to remain, (all-the-while); in complete,…”Subjection”: to the Son-of-God!...(Jesus-of-Nazareth).

As, He,…Himself; remains still-today, in total,…”Subjection”: to His own, God!... And, Father-in-Heaven!... All of this, will maintain our,…sound-conscience!...(read, Romans 13:5). Amen.

“HALLOWED,…BE,…HIS-NAME!”…

Friends, yes,…the Power-and-Wisdom, of Almighty-God, (Jehovah, His-Most-Excellent-Name); is manifested and revealed, by,…in-and-thru: His only, begotten Son!...(Jesus-of-Nazareth)…(read, 1st Corinthians 1:24).

Why?... Answer: Because, the Son,…is, God’s-own; Mediator!...

It’s how, our Creator can reach-out,…to His; created-humanity. He, (God), had to send,…someone, (in His, stead); down to this, fallen-world of ours,…which is filled: with many, putrid-principles.

You-see, dear-reader and friends. Our Holy-God, cannot make His presence, (in a de-facto, manner); onto this, present state-of-affairs,…in which, He: finds our planet. For, it is completely defiled,…by, sin.

Clearly, in,…(verse, 30); our Apostle-Paul, states that,…because, of God’s-calling; to us, today,…we stand, with-and-in: His-Son’s-Cause!... And, by accepting,…the Son-of-God, into our personal-lives; we finally realize, that-the,…very-wisdom, of God; is found-inside, the teachings-and-wordings,…of His: only,…begotten!...

Yes, we know-about,…our, Redemption!... Something, which was accomplished, (in-our-behalf); by the shed-and-atoning, blood of the Son!...

Yes, we know-about,…our, (“Sanctification”); as we, have-been truly,…(set-apart): from the rest, of this hurting-and-lost,…world. Yes, we are,…(“IN-IT”); but-no-longer, find ourselves,…to be,…(“OF-IT”)!...

And, yes,…we, know-about; God’s own, Righteousness!... His Goodness, His Love-and-Mercy,…His Forbearance-and-Patience; all of this, and much-more,…represents: God’s-own-Glory!...

Let us, (Not),…forget, His Grace!... Most of all…(read, 1st Corinthians 1:30).

So, let us,…put-aside, our lofty-speech; and worldly-wisdom. Let us, call each-other,…brothers-and-sisters, (as did, the early-members; of this first-century-church)!...

Yes, a true,…(“CHURCH,…OF,…GOD”)!...(this name, is found several-times; throughout the New-Testament). A church and/or congregation, established first-and-foremost,…by; the Son-of-God!...

Ordained-of-God!... And, spread-about,…by, Jesus’; twelve-original-disciples. Men, filled with the,…Holy-Spirit-Power; to heal the sick, expel-demon-possessions,…and-even: raise-the-Dead!...(a feat, specific to that, era; never again, replicated: to this day)…

Today, I only-boast,…in this Power; which comes from God!...

Transferrable, to whomever,…our Creator, deems; worthy-to-receive. Yes, that same,…”Resurrection-Power!”…

Demonstrated by God, when He raised,…His-Son!... There-after, shared by the Son,…unto, His; selected-followers. Plus, another (70),…individuals, whose-names; aren’t mentioned, in our Bible.

Yes, it’s all-about,…the Father!... These individuals, went-about the entire countryside,…spreading; Jesus’-gospel-message, with regards to His,…Father’s-Kingdom!...

Let us, give the,…Glory-to-God!... And, you-too,…shall-be-blessed!...

All, that Jesus ever,…(“said-and-did”),…was, ultimately; to Glorify-His-Father!... (“HALLOWED,…BE,…HIS-NAME”)!...

Notice-well, (in closing, this passage); how our Apostle-Paul, always refers to the congregation,…as: (“brothers”)!... The very-term, or phrase of,…(”Christian”); was first recognized, to be uttered,…by pagans, (or unbelievers),…inside: a city-called,…(“Antioch”),…Greece!...

Yes, the world began,…recognizing those; who-followed, Jesus’-teachings,…by-the-phrase: “Christians!”…

Yet, even Jesus,…calls us; His brothers-and-sisters!... (just, food-for-thought)!... Amen.

Many, are caught-up,…with, the importance; of given-titles. I believe, to their,…(“total-shame”)… These groups, and/or institutions,…of higher-learning; have forgotten, the,…”Simplicity-of-Christ!”…

Don’t, get,…me-wrong; we all, have to start,…somewhere. And, the beginning,…is always; the best-place!...

But, there comes,…a time; when, we-must,…wean ourselves; from the mere-milk, and begin to chew,…the solid-substances; found-from-within, the written-pages,…of: our Bible!...

Tell-me, haven’t you ever,…felt-that; there, was always something,…more, to this Word-of-God?... Than-perhaps, you have-ever,…been taught?...

If so, you might consider,…that, God; is calling you, out of the world’s-darkness. And, into His-Light,…of, Truths!... Amen.

“TO-YOU,…BROTHERS-AND-SISTERS!”…

Friends, with God’s-Good-Grace,…I mean, to show-you, (Jesus’-Faithful-Followers); that, the Apostles-of-Jesus,…knew, all-too-well; that the Father, and His Son,…were-and-still, are: two-uniquely-proper, entities!...

This Biblical-Truth, dispels all man-made,…traditions-and-rituals; which only attempt, to make void,…our: Holy-Scriptures!...(please-read, 1st Corinthians 1:3).

Yes,…(“DOCTRINES,…OF,…DEVILS”)!... We’ve been, forewarned. Have you, read it?... Oh’, how I pray,…so!... Amen.

Here, once-again,…we find; this-word-of…(“AND”)!...

It reads, as follows:

“Grace-to-you, and peace from God,…our Father,…(“AND”); the Lord, Jesus-Christ!”…

Folks, clearly,…there’s a distinction; made here. Our Apostle-Paul, greets the believers,…in Corinth; in the Name-of-God,…(“AND”),…His-Son!...

Paul, does this,…with-much-frequency; all throughout, the New-Testament,…as his: opening-statement, with these written-letters.

Yes, truly,…we have become,…(“spiritually-enriched”); both-in-speech and in knowledge, as a direct result of God’s-Grace,…exercised: thru-the-teachings, of His only,…begotten, Son!...(Jesus-of-Nazareth)…(verses, 4-5).

Dear-reader and friends, it is,…Almighty-God, (Jehovah, His-Precious-Name); who actually, calls us,…into: having a fellowship, with His Son,…Jesus!...(verse, 9).

This word,…(“Lord”); has been inserted, into our Bible,…and, it’s-so-interchangeable; that at times, it has caused much confusion,…to those, who especially: attempt to, (“speed-read”),…the Scriptures!...

Our Lord, Jesus!... Appointed, Ordained, Invoked, Commission-and-Commanded by,…our, living-God; did all-things, for the Glory of His own,…Father-in-Heaven!... Please, keep this perspective,…clear, in your; hearts-and-minds, at all times!...

Know this, to be true. No one person, comes to the truths about Jesus’-Teachings,…except, they be; called into, a fellowship with the,…Son-of-God!... And, it is,…God, Himself; who-does, all the calling.

Just as, true,…is this; other-fact!...

No one, can reach the Father,…except-that; they are drawn-to-God,…by: His Son!... Yes, Jesus,…is-the-Way!...

Whereas, our final-and-truest,…destination; remains at the very-foot, of God’s own,…Judgment-Seat!...(and/or Throne).

They both, (Father-and-Son), walk,…hand-in-hand, in all-things. Although, they are, (Not),…two; in the same, person!... Amen.

Paul’s own pleas, urges us to become as,…one. And, that-there be no,…divisions; among the brethren, in Faith!... How ironic, indeed. United, in the same mindset,…we-are-not. By definition, the very-word,…(“Denominate”); means-to-divide!...

Yes, to give a different-face-value,…and/or,…to separate; a person, place-or-thing,…from, another. And, so,…it is, in today’s; modern-world, still.

Yes, countless-denominational-groups,…all, calling themselves; (“CHRISTIANS”)!...

Divisions-do-abound, among us,…the believer. Our first identity, has become,…to call, ourselves; by all these, various titles,…out-there: Catholics, Baptist, Methodist, Mormons, Pentecostal, Jehovah’s-Witnesses,…on-and-on!...

The list, is endless!...

Whereas, the early-church,…of God, (established, by His Son; and the twelve-disciples); simply called themselves,…”brothers-and-sisters!”…(verse, 10).

Yes, there’s still-much-quarreling,…among us…(verse, 11).

In closing, let us unite,…finally; and stop using, such words of eloquent-wisdom. Lest, the Cross-of-Christ,…be emptied; of-its-power!... Amen.

“DISCERN-WELL,…ALL-THINGS!”…

First-and-foremost, (dear-reader and friends), may our Faith,…never-rest, in plausible-words; of wisdom!...

But, in the demonstration of the,…Spirit; and in the very, Power-of-God!...(Jehovah, His-Most-Excellent-Name)…please-read, (1st Corinthians 2:4-5).

Yet, among the mature, (in spiritual-knowledge), we do impart,…wisdom. Not, a,…worldly-wisdom. But, one-given-by,…(“Revelations”)!...(verse, 6).

*this written-passage, relates to the following-verses: (1st Corinthians 2: 4,5,6,9,10,11,12)…

Folks, what Almighty-God,…has prepared, (for-those-who, truly love; Him); no human-eye, has seen,…nor-ears, have-heard!...(verse, 9).

Notice-well, how our Apostle-Paul,…speaks-about, this Holy-Spirit; as-if, He were an individual,…entity. Why?...

Answer: Because, the Holy-Spirit, (although, His proper-name, I believe; has been omitted, and/or blotted-out: due to the, religionist’s own,…hidden-agendas); is indeed, a third-separate,…and uniquely-proper, entity: created-by-God!...

Note-well, in verse,…(10): how this Spirit, searches everything. Even, the depths-of-God!... As, should we,…also, be asking; and knocking, and searching for,…all-the-things: of our living-God!...

Yes, we’ve been asked to,…examine-well; (“all-things”)!...

Friends, God,…knows, all-too-well; who-He, truly is!... He, does, (Not),…need, to do; any personal, soul-searching of His,…own. Although, He does enjoy,…reflecting-and-rejoicing; on the very-works, of His-Mighty-Hands!...

Let us, never be,…so, gullible; as to believe, that God,…has stopped; creating, altogether. He’s rewarded His Son, (Jesus-of-Nazareth), with the very keys,…to; our New-Heavens, and our New-Earth,…(yet-future)…as promised, by our Maker!...

But, even the Son,…said: “I go, to prepare a place,…for-you. For, in my Father’s-House, (and/or Kingdom); there are many, Mansions!”…

Was the Son-of-God, not a,…(“carpenter’s-son”),…here-on-Earth?...

In the celestial-realm, Jesus is also,…the Son; of a Master-Builder!...(Jehovah, His-Glorious-Name). I’ve said it, many times before. Heaven, mirrors-and-reflects,…our, worldly-realm; in-many-ways!...

Yes, both Father-and-Son,…Love, to create. God, is from,…”Everlasting-to-Everlasting!”… And, the Word, (meaning, Jesus); was there, present with His Father,…since-before, our world; was ever-created.

Yes, the Son,…was commissioned, by God; to create, all-known-things, (as we know-them, to be)…

But, folks,…God, Himself; continues forward-and-onward, endlessly-creating, building,…beyond, any point: that our conceivable-minds, can take-us!... Amen.

Think for a moment, the vastness of our Universe. Yet, none of the celestial-planets,…collide. Each, has been placed,…in unison, with each-other… All, following their,…assigned-course!...

The depths, of our Galaxies,…much-like, the Holy-Spirit; we humans, also are,…just-beginning,…to, (“search-out”)!…

So-many, celestial-bodies,…all of them, put-in-place; and maintained in complete, balance-and-order. Each, knows its own,…due-course. None, collides with another,…(outside, of God’s-Will)…

Yes, we worship a living-God,…of much, (“Law-and-Order”)!... And, of Discipline-and-Obedience!...

In, (verse, 11); Paul, speaks-about,…(”our-own-spirit”). How our spirit, knows best,…our-own; inner-most-thoughts. And, that the same,…is true; of-Almighty-God!...

No one, comprehends the,…thoughts-of-God!...

Except,…(“HIS,…OWN,…SPIRIT”)!...

But, in verse, (12); Paul, speaks,…about, a-very-different; subject. He mentions, the receiving,…of a,…(“sent-spirit”),…from: God!...

Folks, that’s the,…Holy-Spirit!...(a separate-entity)… Yes, this,…”Spirit”,…is, (Not),…God, Himself!...

But, rather,…the, Holy-Spirit,…is: (“Another,…Comforter”)!...

As, Jesus,…named, Him!... Yes, this Holy-Spirit,…is apart, from; God’s-own-Spirit!...

Sent, down to us, (by-and-from),…God!... So, that we might,…understand, (fully); the very-things, given to us,…freely: by our Creator!...

So, the Holy-Spirit,…Mediates; between God and ourselves, guiding-and-comforting us,…will-all-knowledge: with regards to, the very-things,…of God!...

Yes, for our own,…edification, (and/or, building-up). Amen.

Meanwhile, let us all,…continue, with due-diligence; in maturing-well, imparting God’s-Truths,…as, taught-to-us; by the Holy-Spirit!...

For, we-are-those,…who, interpret-spiritual-truths; to others, who are also,…spiritual…(read, 1st Corinthians 2:13).

I shall never forget-that, we,…(Jesus’-Faithful-Followers); all-began, as,…”Infants-in-Christ!”…(read, 1st Corinthians 3:1).

Yes, we all-start-off,…being fed, much-milk. But, today,…it’s-time, to begin; chewing the solid-food, (the real-sustenance): of our Saviour’s-Sayings!...(Jesus-of-Nazareth)…(verse, 2).

Remember-always, that it is,…God, (Jehovah, His-Precious-Name); who gives, all the increase…(verse, 6). Let us, always remain humble. Knowing-that, each of us,…are, as, (“nothing”); without the Father-and- Son!...(inside, our daily-lives)…(verse, 7).

We, (“brothers-and-sisters”),…in this, exercised-faith; are truly, as One!...

Our recompense, differs,…according to, our laboring!...(verse, 8). Yes, some will receive 30,…others, 60; and yet-others, shall receive,…100-fold: according to your, “good-works!”… Why?... Because, Faith and good-works,…walk; hand-in-hand!...

Yes, just like the Father,…and His-Son; also walk, hand-in-hand,…in: all-things!...

Be careful, how you build-upon,…someone else’s; own foundation. Our Apostle-Paul, warned us,…with-regards; to recognizing, who we,…really-follow?...(read, 1st Corinthians 3:4).

Some, believe that,…Mary, (the Mother-of-Jesus); is truly, the Mother-of-God!... Yet, this is,…(Not),…Biblically-True!...

And, that,…she, is; our-intercessor. To whom, we should bring,…our; petitions-and-pleas. Mediating, between mankind and our,…Creator!...

Again, not true!...

Yes, Mary,…was, indeed; found to be,…(“Highly-Favored”)!... Among, all the women,…of her, day. She was, a direct-descendant of the,…tribe-of-Levites!...(those, in-charge; of all-liturgical-duties)…

Folks, Almighty-God,…chose, Mary, (highly-favored, among the Levite-women)… But, why?... Because, Jesus was to fulfill,…all-aspects, of what-was; prophesied-and-promised, by our living-God!...

Yes, Jesus is known as our,…”High-Priest!”… Because, from His,…(maternal-side); Jesus’ family-lineage, traces back to the,…Levites!...

And, Jesus was to be our,…appointed-King!... Why?... Because, from Jesus’,…earthly; father’s-side,…(paternally),…Joseph, the carpenter; belonged to the, tribe-of-Judah!...

From whence, all the ruling,…”Kings-of-Israel”,…emanated!...

So, in closing,…yes; know-your-Bible!... And, build-only on what,…Jesus; has laid-down!... With regards, to His Father’s-Kingdom!... Amen. (read, 1st Corinthians 3:11).

Your Friend,

P.S. There’s only,…One-God!... And, One-Mediator,…between, mankind; and his, Creator!... The Man, called,…Jesus-the-Christ!... Amen. The Father, has appointed this,…(”Name-of-Jesus”),…as the, only,…Name; under-the-Heavens, by which,…all of humanity: can be, Saved!...

“OUR-FAITH,…IS-TESTED,…BY-FIRE!”…

Friends, let’s continue our study,…in the letter; which our Apostle-Paul, wrote to the Corinthians!...(please, read 1st Corinthians 3:13).

For those-of-us, who believes that,…(”good-works”),…are worthless, in the end; take a moment, and read-well…(verse, 13).

“Each one’s-work, will become manifest. For, the Day, (of God’s-Judgment, at our Resurrection), will disclose it. Because, it will be revealed,…by Fire: (God’s-own, purifying fire)!”…

And, this Fire,…will-test, what; sort-of-work, each-one,…of us: has done.

Tell me, dear-reader and friends. Are we, not-put-thru,…what, often-seems; to be nothing-short, of a,…(“Hell-Fire”),…each-and-every, day: of our,…personal-lives?...

Yes, we are all,…”Tested-and-Tried!”… Continually, I might-add. How else, will God,…know, our truest; intents-and-motives?...

Why, must that be?...

Answer: Well, think-about,…how-we; use a,…“Smelting-Pot”… It melts-down, all precious-metals,…and/or,…ores. This causes, all the impurities,…to float, to the top; where it is, there-after,…skimmed-off!...

As a result, all contaminants and unwanted,…constituents, are no longer; present. And, in the case of,…silver-and-gold; a fine-quality, equates to approximately,…(98.9% = purity)…

It’s what-we, (humans),…value-most. Purity!... Undefiled-by-contaminants, and/or any,…flaws. The same, holds-true in determining,…precious-stones, (like-diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and emeralds).

We hate, flaws!... Don’t-we?...

Well, this is also,…most-true; of our living-God!...(Jehovah, His-Glorious-Name). He, looks for,…(“purity”),…in those, whom; He chooses, to call,…His: own!...

And, this,…(”Testing-Fire”),…is; God’s-method, of purging,…all-that, God: calls,…unclean!... Amen.

Only-those, whose,…(”good-works”),…survives, this, (“Testing-Fire”); are there-after, rewarded at the,…very-end. Why?...

Because, their,…(“works”),…were-well-founded; on Christ’s-Cause!...

Meaning, their devotion,…dealt-mainly, with the sharing; and the furthering-along, all the accomplished deeds,…and-merits: of God’s, only-begotten,…Son!...(Jesus-of-Nazareth)….(verse, 14).

Many, will be Saved,…although- their,…(”Works”),…perish, inside; this,…“Fire!”…

Yes, their Faith,…gets-them-into; the here-after. But, their positioning,…shall-differ, (compared to those, who-worked; for Jesus’-Cause)…

You-see, friends!... In this world, hard-work,…clean-honest-work; always causes, any individual,…to rise: and prosper!...

Yes, we are destined-to-rise,…to different, levels; when compared, to those who,…merely remain: lethargic-and-lazy!...

Much the same, holds-true,…inside; the celestial-realm. Those, who further-along,…(”Christ’s-Cause”),…shall-take, precedence; over those, who-merely-followed,…traditions-of-men: instead!...(verse, 15).

And, in closing,…notice-well,…(verse, 23).

“We are Christ’s!... (“AND”),…Christ-is-God’s!... We belong, to the Son!...

Who, bought-and-ransomed,…us, (who-believe); with His shed-and-atoning, blood.

And, the Son,…belongs; to His Father!... Yes, since even before,…the very-foundations; of our own, Earth,…was-ever-created.

(Verse, 23),…does, (Not),…read-that: Christ-Jesus, is indeed,…God!...

But, rather,…that, Christ; belongs-to-God!... Amen.

“JUST-SURRENDER,…AND,…WIN!”…

Friends, notice-well,…our, Apostle-Paul’s; own declaration!...(please-read, 1st Corinthians 4:5).

It is, our Lord, (the very, Son-of-God; Jesus-of-Nazareth); who will bring-to-light, all the things,…that-we, today; have so, well-hidden within,…our-deep: and dark-closets!...

Yes, all those skeletons,…crammed-away, so neatly; way-back, into our,…cozy-closets!...

Jesus, will disclose the purposes,…of our; (“hearts-and-minds”)!...

Then, each one of His,…(”Faithful-Followers”), will receive,…his-or-her, commendation; from, none-other-than,…Almighty-God!...(Jehovah, His-Honorable-Name).

Tell-me, dear-reader and friends. How many of our, spiritual-leaders,…have-gone, beyond; what was originally-written, within the pages,…of our: Holy-Scriptures?...(verse, 16).

Yes, many-are-those,…who-have; puffed-up, and fabricated many,…(“fabulous, fables”)!... Like, the age-old,…(“Rapture-Theory”)!...

All-in-favor, of placing our brethren,…(“one-against-another”)!...

I’ve read, our Bible,…for over, 18 years. And, still,…can’t find; the words,…(“Trinity”)!... Nor,…(“Rapture”)!... Nor, that our Jesus,…is, out-right; our living-God,…Himself!...

We, were warned,…of curses, befalling-us; for attempting, to add,…and/or, take-away; one-iota, of what was,…originally-written!…(read, Revelation 22:18-19).

Folks, take a good-look,…around, you; and tell me, that we aren’t indeed,…completely-plagued; for our manipulating, twisting-and-perverting,…totally; the Son’s-Message, with regards to,…His-Father’s-Kingdom!...

Our worldly-churches, (all Christian-Denominational-Groups, implied; without-exceptions); are condoning, tolerating and turning a blind-eye,…to these, pompous-preachers: who-teach-only,…”Doctrines-of-Devils!”…

Yes, Gay-Priest and Nuns,…have devoured, our youth; for centuries-on-end!...

And, today,…only-because, there is,…much-money, to-be-made; has it also, become,…most-fashionable: to shout-aloud-that,…(“I’ve,…Been,…Victimized”)!...

I ask you, in earnest: “Why, have-so-many,…waited; for-so-long, to bring this,…(“darkest-of-deeds”): into,…The-Light-of-Truth?...

How, could we,…have-been, (as-a-society, in general); so, gullible?... As-to-never, question anyone,…about; what-really, goes on,…behind, those closed-doors: of-all-these,…convents?...

As a people, we’ve,…(”gravely-erred”)!…

Yes, we’ve placed,…our-total-trust; in-ravenous-wolves, all dressed-in,…sheep’s-clothing. Our Bible, forewarned us,…yet; no-one-seems, to care enough,…to: read it. How sad!...

To you, pastors, preachers-and-priests,…it-behooves-you; to read-well,…(1st Corinthians 4:12).

The first-century-church, and their leaders,…labored-much; with their own-hands. Yes, we may have,…indeed; countless-guides, in Christ,…all-around-us: (today)!...

But, who-do-you,…know; truly-acts, like a,…(“real-father”), in Christ-Jesus: through, the gospel?...(verse, 15).

Folks, the Kingdom-of-God,…does, (Not); consist-in-talk!... But, in,…Power!...(verse, 20).

Remember, Jesus will return. And, this-time-around,…with, (“Rod-of-Iron”)!... He will, chastise-in-Love!... And, it won’t be,…in a, (“spirit-of-gentleness”)!... Why?...

Because, millions,…have-and-will, continue; to refuse, His-Appointed-Authority!...

I believe, we are all,…convinced-that; for the most-part, our own will,…typically, is contrary: to,…God’s-Will… Folks, He wants-what’s-best,…for us, inside; our personal-lives!... (Although, we struggle-constantly; with, seeing-this-truth)… Amen.

And, with that said,…I pray, that: “You, come-to-realize,…that-there-is; truly, much,…(“power-in-subjection”)!… Just, look at the Son’s-Exaltation!... All, a direct-result of,…(“Jesus’-Subjection”),…unto, the will; of His-Father!...

And, that-only-when,…we, (Jesus’-Faithful-Followers); learn to surrender-ourselves, (fully), will-we-then,…witness, many: doors-of-opportunity, begin-to-open!...

God, wants-to-witness,…most; your-own,…(“Free-Will”),…surrendering to: His-Ways!...

And, when-we-all,…master, this-task; eternal-life, is guaranteed-and-awaits,…as: our final,…reward!... Amen.

Your Friend,
Izzy!...
