We obey the Lord because we love him and we love our neighbor (Ro 8).


I don't cheat on my husband because I have a post-it note on the visor in my car that reads: Don't forget--don't cheat on hubby today and then drive through town like a braying horse looking for someone to bed (Ps 32:9, Pr 26:4, Jer 2:24, Jas 3:3)--
whilst remembering my pledge for the day.


Who could keep that up for a lifetime? 1 Ti 1:19

People develop the most complicated theologies imaginable, but in the end, do the Lord's will and things go well.

JOHN 6:

All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. 38For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. 39And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. 40And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

I believe we are getting into some symbolism here.

What is the symbolism behind CHRIST telling HIS DISCIPLES to go and preach THE GOSPEL and if anyone does not receive them to shake the dust off their feet as a testimony against them?

Luke 9
4And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence depart. 5And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your fee

Unt whom ittle is given little is required.
I speak to you little children because...,I speak to you young men because... I speak o you fathers becausr.Babes are complete in stature as far as they have grown(changing diapers is normal.It's the free gift of G-d(the righteousness
of faith),then the milk of the word for knowledge so you can seperate from
the world then when you are weaned from the breast and drawn from the milk you are ready to leave the principals of the doctrine of Christ and go on unto perfection of Holiness in the fear of G-d.it's faith in Christ at every level and your righteousness is Christ .Dying to self is a choice and he that believes on Christ wll not make haste to establish his own.The thief on the cross :time short little required.publicans&harlots repented and believed John.The Gentiles requirement after repenting and believing were to abstin from blood,things strangled ,fornication,and idolatry.We also have a merciful and faithful high priest that can have compassion on those that are OUT OF THE WAY! BELOVED BELIEVE AND TRUST JESUS WHO BEGAN THE GOOD WORK IN YOU WHO ALSO IS THE FINISHER OF OUR FAITH! The grace
(Spirit) of our lord Jesus Christ be with you all.Shalome Christ is the only way to tbe Father.

Right, foolish Galatian (Ga 3:3).
They were not to return to Judaism. What we have is so much better--it blew Paul away. The sprit would come and go with Saul and in this dispensation the Holy Spirit would come and stay. There's no better deal than to be in Christ. When we're gone--Are we there yet?-- that benefit is gone.

I suppose that we all want to believe that a person who did not live for the Lord got saved just before they died, and maybe a few do, however at this age I have come to believe that most people die as they have lived.

You should review the parable of the workers in HIS vineyard and pay attention to the one who came in
at the very last hour

then please explain to me the symbolism behind this below scripture statement
13And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. 14And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

To get your name on the book of life, you must repent of your sin. I hope you've done that.

Years ago the Lord led me to repent of sins I was committing. Suddenly my life was transformed into something indescribably beautiful. What is it you want me know?

Is there a distinction according to John 5 and Revelation 20 of those who have already heard THE VOICE of THE SON of GOD now from those who will hear THE VOICE of THE SON of GOD after the end of all these things?
