now though to me i once went from this to that and from scripture to scripture and i was full of works..i needed to save me because i didnt believe christ had saved me. and i was afraid for my children because i did not know the truth.and i was afraid for you because you are both my brother and my sister. a man who will not care for his family is an infidel,,,you see,i needed to go about my fathers works because he's my family,and my wife and my children i need to give this truth ,,,because they are my family. and i need to say it to you ,because you are my family...and it is said Christ is the groom of the woman and he is no "infidel",,,,,,,,,,he is provided for you,,,,,it is finished and "you may rest from your works of saving yourselves",,,,,,,,you do not have a thing to do,and now that it is an holiday to you, you are free to go about your "rest",,,,,will you say to him "thank you" when you believe it is not yet yours?. then again if you hope you are saved you hope for it to come, and if you believe you are save from his sacrifice then you are full of hope. one "hope's for salvation" and has many works to accomplish to achieve it. and the other "has hope that he is saved" and is at rest from the many works of getting saved. I'm suppose to quote a scripture Luke 9;3 in my post,,,,,,,,and so for the ones where i did not mark 6;8 and if you think i have forgotten the other Matthew 10;10 and if these will not suffice deut. 4;2,,,,,deut.12;32,and rev.18-19,,,,,,,so if you hope you are doing the right work,then you hope that you will do a work that Christ did not do, Christ did a work because you did not and could not do it. so "rest from your work" in six days the lord did go about the whole creation,and rested. and in one day judged it,and found you to be dead,and then your death was crucified on the cross with him. and you were then again raised from that death,,,,,,,,,,,,and he will not come from that rest,,,from that sabbath,he will not again do a work to save you.and he will not deny that his blood redeemed you,and come to save you again ,and his father will not deny his sons blood.,,,one man is sad,,because a thing he could not loose he cannot find,for the thing he cannot find he has lost.and the other is glad for the thing he has lost,,another has found and when he came and saw he said,,,,"is it not lawful that if a man find an life in the field and then,,,,,,,,,,and it will be returned?",,,,who has found the thing you have lost?,,,,,,,,,,,yes he has returned it and you cannot find it again. how many time will you ask him for it ? seven times and then seven times more?,,,,,,,,,,,this life ,this rake,,,,,,,,he has returned it to you and you keep misplacing it in the field,,,,,,,,,,,,,take it in your hand and ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"go out and tend the garden"
