J. C. You have to be saved. Ephesians 2:8 "For by grace you are saved through faith, not of yourselves; it is the gift of God." Your promises mean nothing to God if he has not called you.
Many are called, few are chosen.
I'm VERY Unsettled. I've always wanted but could never grasp the spirit, even though I wanted and tried to, I just couldn't understand it. I'm 27 and i'm barely understanding because I'm searching for something that has to be there to guide me through a place i know, NOW, that I've been lost in all along. What else can I do To feel all of the love of the father? For I have promised my all to HIM!
I thank god that when we read the word we get strength. Paul a man of God in his words encourages us and if we live by the word of God his love will abide in us, and if the love of God abides in us then thair is no place for Satan, so I encourages us as children of God to be strong and stay in the word of God.
Please read M. Henry commentary, espcially 5-11. Churches and ministers have a fine line to walk where sin and forgivness are concerned - not too harsh and not too lax.
That is what is wrong with a lot of churches today, judgemental instead of forgiving and loving. Condemning rather than compassionate. Paul clearly states that but not choosing to act in love you push that poor person away and Satan attacks from every angle.
Many today use scripture out of context using them to their advantage because the is a a good scripture to manifest the power of God to mankind teaching us just to be thankful but the increase of knowledge brings evil . 2 CORINTHIANS 2 : Verse 17 says more hoe scripture are used today to bound people not free them .... God came to show us what he could do for us not what we could do for him .
The savour of God's knowledge is sweet to the taste : Much finer than silver or gold and even rubies : Makes rich : Always causes me to triumph in any situation and or circumstance. I Praise and Thank my God for all that He has and is doing for me : I cannot do without Him and I cannot live without Him : I want Jesus in every area of my life !!!! It is my desire that Jesus Christ be Glorified in me and I in Him.
As servants of God we must not only serve we must love , be strong in Spirit , but at the same time watch out for the things of the devil, but most of all show Gods love to evaryone.We must keep our ears open to God our heart , our minds to his word .
He that is saved in Christ is empowered by the grace of God upon the saints to be triumphant in every situation and the joy of God is to display his wisdom through our weakness.
Aroma Fragrance,,do we have such good perfumes or the bad smell, in our daily life for Christ, forget what the apostle Paul, teaches, do we have the quality to witness to the world ? Do we or otherwise ? let us hold on to Christ, to empower us on this imp issue.
I am grateful to my Father, whom through His son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, my faith is strengthened with every test, trial, and tribulation. I acknowledge, proclaim, and declare it is through Christ that I am triumphant that I am victorious. No fight or battle is won without Him. Glory to God!
We need to seek God 's Kingdom first and we shall find the truth. John 3, Except man is not Born Again in Spirit we cannot enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. We must be reborn in spirit and not in flesh. To follow Jesus we must repent ourselves as Jesus will give us power not to sin again. Tru Jesus we can only be saved. We should praise God and thank him everyday for giving us life, peace and blessing in abundance. This is the reason why we live because of Jesus, we must obey his commandments if we love him. Jesus loves you all the time and he is longing to be good to us.
We can be so grateful that Jehovah God has provided His word the Bible for us. Reading the Bible helps us to understand some of Satan 's designs he tries to use against us and this can help us to see where we need to be careful. So glad that God saw fit to warn of us Satan 's designs.
MaryMauldin even though you are saved you must still repent for your sins. You must ask God for forgiveness of your sins and mean it and be sincere. Just because you are saved and you sin and screw up that doesn't mean that you are hell bound. NO ONE IS PERFECT. NO ONE. Jesus was the only flesh that is perfect. If you do something you aren't proud of and if you sin, Go straight yo God, talk to him, tell Him how sorry you are and ask for his forgiveness and mercy. Turn away from your sins, try to always do better, but in these flesh bodies, we will always be weak, just always repent and try your best. God bless.
If any man is saved and he or she does something they shouldn 't meaning makes a mistake and sins are they doomed for hell after they are saved.Ive heard of false prophets.And was confused about this.
in CHRIST and CHRIST in us we do not leave the people heavy in sorrow. in CHRIST and CHRIST in us we preach the good news of the gospel. we preach hope. Thank you GOD FOR SAVING ME SANCTYFYING ME AND FILLING ME WITH THE PRECIOUS GIFT OF THE HOLY GHOST.
I gather that we are to be grateful for all things presented unto by the living GOD. That wisdom, growth and knowledge given to us through Jesus Christ the word we are to spread the word everywhere we go, that we and they might be saved, and that we gain the victory over the world.
God maketh manifest His knowledge by us when we triumph in Christ. His savour is sweet to some and bitter to others. but to us who are saved it is a triumphant salvation Triumph means we display the excellency of His Glory . We are a testimony !!! We are conqueros !!!
l see the power of forgiveness as brother Paul is making us understand the need to forgive people lest the devil will take advantage of us in vs 7.When we refuse to forgive fast we open a door for the enemy against ourselves and others and create rooms of attacks against ourselves and the one who sinned to be swallowed up y the devil.We need to assure such a one that he or she is forgiven and and encourage the person to move on in righteousness God bless us all as we teach and observe his word on daily basis Amen.
On verse 14, now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. It�s important to know who we are in Christ. We have been given the mind of Christ and have been made partakers of His divine nature. We are more than conquerors in Him, Romans 8:37. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us, Philippians 4:13.
