GOD is a S P I R I T (John 4:23–24).

To get to Heaven to live with God and his only begotten Son human beings must be changed into a Quickening Spirit.

Jesus, the only begotten Son of God is the ONLY person that God has given power to change from the earthly to the heavenly (John 3:16-18, 5:21–22, 14:2–3).

“And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit” (1 Corinthians 15:45).

“And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly” (1 Corinthians 15:47–49).

Jesus says: “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life” (John 6:63).

“For as the Father rises up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will. For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son” (John 5:21–22).

The Apostle Paul also explained, said: “Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption” (1 Corinthians 15:50).

“But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness” (Romans 8:9-10).

“The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together” (Romans 8:16-17).

“Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live” (Romans 8:12-13).

“Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting” (Galatians 6:7-8).

What did you have for lunch?

If asked among a random selection of people, answers will run the gamut from:
“I had a sandwich”;
“I had fish and chips;
“I had a soup and salad”
“I didn’t have lunch as yet”;
“I had the buffet and tried almost everything”;
And so on.
Before or after we eat let us always remember to give God thanks in Jesus’ name for what we are about to eat or just ate because the word of God says: “When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the LORD thy God for the good land which he hath given thee” (Deuteronomy 8: 10).

“For all the earth is mine” (Exodus 19:5).

“The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul: but the belly of the wicked shall want” (Proverbs 13:25).

For those of us fortunate to be able to buy food to have at least three main meals every day, let us also remember that there are millions of people, if not a billion or more people, living on this earth in conditions of starvation, and if they were asked: What did you have for lunch? There will be heartfelt answers such as:

“I do not know where to get food”; or “I have not eaten in days”; or “I do not have money to buy lunch” and so on.

“Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble” (Psalm 41:1).

While we may not be able to perform miracles as Jesus did when he took five loaves of bread and two fish to feed five thousand men beside women and children (Matthew 14:19-21), we can take action in our communities to feed the hungry, provide shelter, comfort the sick, visit the imprisoned, and in general provide help to those in need (Matthew 25:35–39).

We will be rewarded for our good works for being a profitable elected servant of God. On the Last Day when Jesus returns to earth, he will say, “Verily I say unto you, inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me” (Matthew 25:40).

“Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 5:20).

The DOOR of SALVATION.

While the door is still open, for those among us who have not already done so, come to knowledge of the truth: BELIEVE in the only SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever [BELIEVETH] in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt [CONFESS] with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt [BELIEVE] in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be [SAVED]. For [WITH THE HEART MAN BELIEVETH UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS]; and [WITH THE MOUTH CONFESSION IS MADE UNTO SALVATION]” (Romans 10:8-10).

“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the [POWER OF GOD]” (1 Corinthians 1:19).

Jesus Christ says: “[I AM THE DOOR]: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture” (John 10:9).

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall [NEVER SEE DEATH]” (John 8:51).

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that [HEARETH MY WORD], and [BELIEVETH] on him that sent me, hath [EVERLASTING LIFE], and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life” (John 5:24).

GOD is the only LIVING GOD!

Human beings would be wise to keep in remembrance that GOD created us!

“I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me. Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker” (Isaiah 45:5, 9).

“For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens” (Psalm 96:5).
These words spoken by the Apostle PAUL to the congregation in Philippi, resonate in our present time (Philippians 1:1).

“I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy, For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now; Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:” (Philippians 1:3-6).

“Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling that ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ” (Philippians 2:12, 1:10).

“NOW we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand” (2 Thessalonians 2:1-2).

“Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the [LIVING GOD]. But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end” (Hebrews 3:12-14).

TRUE GOD versus False gods.

“I AM the LORD thy God. Thou shalt have no other gods before me” (Exodus 20:2–3).

“I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me” (Isaiah 45:5).

“For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens” (Psalm 96:4–5).

“But the LORD is the [TRUE GOD] God; he is the living God, and an everlasting king: at his wrath the earth shall tremble, and the nations shall not be able to abide his indignation. Thus shall ye say unto them, the gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens” (Jeremiah 10:10–11).

“GOD standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods” (Psalm 82:1).

“God is the LORD, which hath shewed us light:” (Psalm 118:27).

“This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all” (1 John 1:5).

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning” (James 1:17).

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).

“These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee. As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give [ETERNAL LIFE] to as many as thou hast given him. And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the [ONLY TRUE GOD], and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent” (John 17:1-3).

GOSPEL OF GOD in the House of God?

“For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven” (Psalm 119:89).

In our present time there are innumerable church denominations that have have developed since the time of the early churches.

However, we are to be very careful when we decide to have fellowship of worship in any church because the word of God says:

“Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil” (Ecclesiastes 5:1).

“He that burneth incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations” (Isaiah 66:3).

“The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight. The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness” (Proverbs 15:8-9).

“For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, [WHAT SHALL THE END BE OF THEM THAT OBEY NOT THE GOSPEL OF GOD]? And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?” (1 Peter 4:17-18).

Jesus, the only begotten Son of God is very clear when he comes, says: “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven” (Matthew 7:21). “For many are called, but few are chosen” (Matthew 22:14).

“I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches” (Revelation 22:16).

“He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels” (Revelation 3:5).

“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne” (Revelation 3:20-21).

“Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city” (Revelation 22:14).

“He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen” (Revelation 22:20-21).

Greatest LOVE: Love of GOD and JESUS CHRIST.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).

Jesus, the only begotten Son of God expressed to his disciples saying: “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends” (John 15:13).

“For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:7-8).

“Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you?” (2 Corinthians 13:5).

“Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4).

“Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you” (1 John 3:13).

Jesus also says: “The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil” (John 7:7).

“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world” (John 16:33).

“Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth” (1 John 5:5–6).

“He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed” (John 8:36).

At the End of the world, “Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven” (Psalm 85:11).

 

LOVE of GOD:

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18).

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy [HEART]: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt [BELIEVE IN THINE HEART] that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the [HEART MAN BELIEVETH UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS]; and with the mouth confession is made unto [SALVATION]” (Romans 10:8-10).

“Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine [HEART]. Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine [HEART]” (Psalms 27:14, 37:4).

“The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the [SALVATION] of the LORD” (Lamentations 3:25-26).

Frequency of SPIRIT: GOD or devil?

What frequency of spirit we have been tuned into during our lifetime will determine on the LAST DAY our final destination:

HEAVEN: Tuned in to the frequency of LIGHT that is ABOVE: the SPIRIT of the MOST HIGH: GOD!

HELL: Tuned into the frequency of Darkness that is BELOW: the spirit of the FALLEN son of wickedness: the Devil, aka Satan.

“Whosoever is [BORN OF GOD DOTH NOT COMMIT SIN]; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

In this the [CHILDREN OF GOD] are manifest, and the [CHILDREN OF THE DEVIL]: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.

For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous. Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you. We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.

Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him” (1 John 3:9-15).

“[EXAMINE YOURSELVES, WHETHER YE BE IN THE FAITH]; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that [JESUS CHRIST IS IN YOU]?” (2 Corinthians 13:5).

“For ye are all the [CHILDREN OF GOD] by [FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS]. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Galatians 3:24-29).

“[AND HAVE NO FELLOWSHIP WITH THE UNFRUITFUL WORKS OF DARKNESS], but rather reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light” (Ephesians 5:11–13).

LOVE ONLY GOD because GOD IS FORVER GOD!

To Love GOD is to
-Love the word of God is to
-Love the only begotten Son of God is to
-Love the Spirit is to
-Love Life: ETERNAL LIFE! (John 3:16-18).

On the other hand:
To love this world is to
-love the things of flesh is to
-love life in this world is to
-love Death: SECOND DEATH! (1 John 2:15–17) (Revelation 20:12–15).

Jesus, the only begotten Son of God says: “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life” (John 6:63).

“Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away” (Matthew 24:35).

“For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven” (Psalm 119:89).

“By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth” (Psalm 33:6).

“IN the beginning God created the heaven and the earth” (Genesis 1:1).

“The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land” (Psalm 95:5).

“For all the earth is mine” (Exodus 19:5).

“The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein” (Psalm 24:1).

“Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God” (Psalm 90:2).

LOVE GOD who was, is and will forever be GOD.

“Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, I will exalt thee. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever” (Psalm 118:28-29).
