Mat 10:24 The disciple is not above
his master, nor the servant above his lord.
Mat 10:25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more
shall they call them of his household?
Mat 10:26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.
We are still in debate over the reason for the use of Beelzebub. As we know it is a name that always bring to mind Satan. So we think, it is used to give the idea that not all people are good. The idea that some would call them in a household like this even worst things is a bit shameful. Yet is that not we see many doing to the Jewish people, and other churches that won't bow to them?
Like I said, we have found nothing to show us exactly what is meant by the above as of yet. So it is just us thinking out load.
(
Luk 12:3–7 )
Mat 10:27 What I tell you in darkness,
that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear,
that preach ye upon the housetops.
Mat 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
I was asked many times by the others in our class, "Why do you walk into the lions den so freely?" Truth is, I don't. You see we are not told to take the easy path. We are called to be worriers. Putin on the full armor. Anyone that knows about that, also knows there is nothing to cover your back. As it stands, we work to do HaShems work. We plant the seed and leave it to Him. Fear has nothing to do with it, if we were to fear any man, we would find soon we no longer fear HaShem.
Mat 10:29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.
Mat 10:30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
It is getting easier to keep count on mine. LOL
Mat 10:31 Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.
As we know HaShem feeds all of his creation. What we as humans over look is that He meets all the needs of creation, not their wishes. There are many that teach prosperity in this world. Yet the Word is clear, if we store up our treasurer here, our heart becomes bounded to this life. More on that later.
