Father God, You know the situation going on between Gospel41 and his wife. I pray for their relationship to be restored. I pray for healing and being set free of mental illness for Gospel41's wife. In the name of Jesus Christ. Thank You Heavenly Father God.
Today in the UK is Armastice day , remembering the dead of two world wars . There have also been hundreds of thousands deflecting from this national day of remembrance by staging pro palestine marches . UK is a democracy so this is certainly permitted . We were assured by the organisers that the march would be peaceful , we believed them . I've just watched on the news , crowds of men , six and seven deep , surging towards police officers attacking them very deliberately . The police are responding in equal measure . This conflict is divisive worldwide . We have a large muslim population in the UK , which is a very small island . I hope that wherever you are , that you keep away from this trouble , do what Rahab and her family did , stay home with your doors closed and wait for the Mercy of God .
Those who believe they DIED and were made ONE in Christ, will never die again.
Those who don't believe they DIED, and the resurrection made them ONE as the Father and Son and son are ONE will be cast into prison, the GRAVE. "Made one in Christ" in Jordyn's opinion means you become Gods"
Is this not another Gospel?
More issues.
Jordyn claims the flesh of the unbelievers is the devil and the bottomless pit mentioned in Revelation 20:2-3 is the grave.
He also claims we are already living in the 1000 years mention in verse 5.
He claims the unbelievers/Devil will be loosed out of the grave, "resurrected" in Revelation 20:7.
After all the dead are raised at the second resurrection, "LOOSED OUT OF THE BOTTOMLESS PIT" the Sons of God "WILL PREACH THE TRUTH TO THEM ABOUT THE TRUTH OF THE RESURRECTION"
LET'S EXAMINE.
Revelation 20:7-8. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
AND SHALL GO OUT TO DECIEVE THE NATIONS which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
(Jordyn says these verses says the unbelievers will preach the truth!)
The bible says Satan will deceive the nations!
So, Jordyn says God will judge the unbelievers by the word of God and give them the truth and mercy given to us, and they will have DIED the second death, and also become the SONS of God and will enter the Kingdom. Thats what he gets out of Revelation 20:2-8.
However, Look at Revelation 22:11-15. SOME REMAIN UNJUST!
Some have right to the tree of life and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Some are seen here in verse 15. "For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
BEWARE OF WHO YOU FOLLOW! NO CHILD OF GOD WOULD DO SUCH BLASPHEMY TO THE WORD OF GOD!
Here is something I wanted to address earlier but I had to wait until the weekend due to my busy work schedule.
Jordyn said;
"The wages of UNBELIEF is DEATH.
The Gift of BELIEF is IMMORTAL LIFE and Christ ONLY has IMMORTAL LIFE."
and then in a few more lines you said the unbelief and those who believe will receive eternal life.
SO, THEY BOTH RECEIVES THE GIFT IN HIS THEOLOGY.
Well, there is no reward for the righteous.
HE'S CALLING GOD A CORRUPT JUDGE.
Here is more blasphemy in this theology.
Here is a direct quote of what he stated. (Pay close attention to 1a!
Those who believe they DIED and were made ONE in Christ, will never die again.
1a) "Those who don't believe they DIED, and the resurrection made them ONE as the Father and Son and son are ONE will be cast into prison, the GRAVE. Revelation 20:2-3. End quote.
(Shouldn't it be those who didn't receive Christ and had their names written in the Lambs book of life will be cast into prison?)
Jordyn is saying who ever don't believe in his theology is the unsaved! I WILL COME BACK TO THAT.
1b) After God has gather all his SONS to be priest in the Kingdom, he will resurrect the unbelievers back to their flesh and blood bodies, they will be loosed out of their prison ( Revelation 20:7).
After all the dead are raised at the second resurrection the Sons of God will preach the gospel to them about the truth of the resurrection, judge them by the words of God, and give them the truth and mercy given to us, and they will DIED the second death, and also become the SONS of God. End quote.
SO ACCORDING TO HIM ALL HUMANITY WILL EVENTUALLY BE SAVED.
Recap;
From what he has mentioned in the past, according to him the devil is our flesh.
The bottomless pit mentioned in Revelation 20:2-3 is the grave.
The unbelievers/Devil will be loosed out of the grave, "resurrected" in Revelation 20:7.
"And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins."(v.21)
Here we have two names which distinguish as we ascribe deity and humanity to the Word becoming flesh.
In this context we do not find God naming Adam. In the Lucan genealogy Adam is qualified as the son of God.("Adam, which was the son of God"- Luke 3:38) The angel who appeared to Mary informs on the other hand of her child, "which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God"- Luke 1:35) One is a son because of the breath of God making him a living soul. The other signifies the Fellowship of God with Man on the basis of the Father Son relationship. This is consequential as far as salvation Plan for man is concerned. "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."(Ac.4:12)
In vv.22-23 we have another name, "That it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,/ Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us." God with us is synonymous with Word which is the constitution or Law of the kingdom of God. Knowledge of the glory of God is tied up Jesus Christ. In his prayer he remarks of the glory, "O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was."( John 17:5)
"For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ." What does the face indicate? God named the firmament heaven (Ge.1:8) so heaven declares the glory (Ps.19:1) indicates a face to which the Magi could read as well as any man by faith would know the will of his Father. God showed only 'back parts' to Moses, meaning through the Law of Moses.
The eunoch didn't understand because he had been living in Ethiopia and didn't have the new testament as we now do . Ethiopians are very significant in the Bible , individuals are mentioned a few times in the old testament , playing very important roles . No doubt the Ethiopian went back to Ethiopia and told his friends and family all about the great things that had happened in Israel .
Thank you Jordyn , that was a lovely post :) . By end of the world I mean end of this word , these kingdoms of men . Can't wait for all flesh to know the Truth and to rejoice , what a sound we will all make ! Thy Kingdom Come .
"Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost."
"Now the birth of Jesus was on this wise,"
So begins St Mathew and the Spirit in narrating it tells us a few essential points. God is a Spirit so as 'the only begotten' Son, he embodies the Law. It is intended as the instruction in righteousness so biology of natural man is out of place. So is his rational faculties. "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned."(1 Co.2:14).
Worshiping God in Spirit and truth we make faith the lingua franca because the mystery of his will is not something you may go out and purchase by anything that you may possess as a natural man. St Paul refers to his Will as a mystery so the word becoming flesh and what enables man who is dead in sin to be born in the Spirit can only be understood by faith./"the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself."(Ep.1:9-11)
"God sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions." This was sent forth even before the worlds began. By Law of the Spirit Jesus did not do anything outside and he finger of God is what faith signifies. "But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you."( Luke 11:20) The Spirit overshadowing explains 'the virgin' birth. "Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?/And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God."( Luke 1:34-35)
"So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations."
Here we have earthly events and names of persons graded into generations.
Narrative mode of the Spirit in setting the deity and humanity of Jesus Christ on a single yard stick uses numbers which is user-friendly. It is in the sense mathematics is a human invention so it is convenient to set births deaths of man rise and fall of nations against the Law of the Spirit. Jesus Christ as the fulfillment of the Law accordingly is made manifest in the fulness of time. The Spirit tags the Son by a command number Three. We shall look at three examples which hold relation to the Son. "David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years."(2 Sa.5:4) 2)"And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt"(Ge.41:46) and "And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,"( Luke 3:23). Lives of men in 3x10 set them graded within frame of reference to God the Son. This Law of Gradation groups men events places in terms of the Son. This connection makes heaven and the earth on the same pge and on a single yardstick. Carrying away into Babylon unto Christ, from Abraham and from David are events given in 14 generations. 14x3 =42. In the Revelation we have the beast set in terms of the generation of Jesus Christ. "And power was given unto him to continue forty and two months."(Re.13:5). What is the significance of 42? It refers to the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ. The beast shall be called to account as those children of Belial whom Elisha cursed."And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them."(2 Ki.2:24)
The Scripture is good for teaching and referral. Knowing the Scripture by heart is good but is not meaningful to God. Looking at the piece where Philip was send to the eunuch on the wagon there are a lot to learn from this piece.
1) The Lord after His crucifixion appeared unto Philip (ONE he taught) and instructed him to visit the eunuch on the wagon. It is clear that God from time to time make use of people HE TAUGHT to go and do work for HIM. Now then if you are not a taught of Christ how will he appear unto you?
2) The eunuch did read the Scripture but did not understand (hidden from). This again shows me if you are not taught by Christ himself or by one he directly taught and or they taught you will not understand the scripture. And therefor not one of HIS. As it is written in the scripture where Jesus told them who did not understand - you dont understand cause you not of my flock.
Amen, not one church can give you the truth. Jesus said in
" John 8:31] Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
[32] And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."
Churches are walking around in their sin with strong delusions to believe a lie to ve damned with. They all believe they are holding onto God's hand when in reality they are holding unto the devil's hand up to their neck in sin and expecting grace to keep on saving them like it is a walk in the park. Churches are not interested in going back to the old road of revival with the King James bible as they have tasted too much of the world and not too much of the word. As Jesus said, his words has no place in them John 8:37. He was talking to Abraham's seed to his people before people were called Christians. Christanity has rejected Jesus Christ the Son of God as prophesied abs accepted the world and the bible in 2nd Cor 6 tells us to come out from amoung them. Come out of the synagogues of Satan who refuse the love of the truth and walk hand in hand with your pocketbook and nothing for the saving of the soul. You find a evangelist who believes in the perfecting of the saints and does not rebell agianst the words of the Gospel of Christ the King Janes Bible. For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft...this is what the church is engaged in their abominations and their carnal minded fun only to be cast into hell after with no fear of God before their eyes.
What law is John talking about? Not the ten commandments but the law the that Jesus came with, the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus Romans 8:1-2. The ten commandments were a schoolmaster to bring us to Christ Jesus Galations 3:24-25. Sin is a violation of the law of the spirit of life as it is the opposite of what Moses carried the law of sin and death. All sin is of the devil period 1st John 3:8. Tge reason why mankind sins and has to sin is because thry are a servant to sin a servant to the devil and not to Jesus Christ the Son of God.
The law of Moses made nothing perfect, it was the brining in of the better hope that did Hebrews 7:9. The law of spirit and life as Jesus'words are spirit and life John 6:63. Churches of all kinds are still bound by the old law, that is why they still celebrate the Sabbath when Jesus is now our rest and not the Sabbath day anymore.
Gal.3[24] Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
[25] But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster
Rev 14:13] And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
Hebrews 4:8] For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
[9] There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
[10] For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.
Romans 8:1] There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
[2] For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
[3] For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
1 john 3:4,-... whoever commits sin transgresses the law, for sin IS the transgression of the law.. 1cor 7:19,circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God... I have to say, according to the bible, they must still mean something, jot, tittle, whatever.. it doesn't save us but they seem rather important.
Hello Richard: I was a member of a church that taught they were the church that Christ started during his ministry, that they taught only the truth and joining them by covenant was the only way to heaven. I attended this church for a very long time, however, even thought they were always preaching the love of God would be the sign that drew people in, they were a very unloving, self-righteous, legalistic group of people. I finally left. Then I attended a non-denominational church for almost a year and, even though the lead pastor and my pastor always used the NIV version, I just followed along in my KJB and paid close attention to what was being taught, but then one day I was talking to my pastor the topic of bible versions came up, he flatly told me the KJB was not inspired by God and that's why he used the NIV, of course, I left on the spot. I bring all this up because I know that the Church of God and the Body of Christ are made up of true believers that are and will be here when God raptures her. I know having fellowship with one another is very important, it is very beneficial to our growth in Christ and in helping one another through hard times in the fruit of the Spirit, but our doctrine is what the Holy Spirit reveals to us through His holy word. A heart that is wholly dedicated to God and longing for the truth will not be lead astray by false doctrines, so it isn't necessary to belong to any particular "church" or abide by their doctrines. Fellowship matters but not at the cost of sitting under unscriptural teachings. I don't attend a church right now because there isn't one that uses the KJB that I can find without a lot of false doctrine attached to their teachings, so I spend good quality time with the Lord, enjoying His presence and loving Him with all my heart, mind and soul.
In Christ Jesus we are blessed with the righteousness of God though faith. No one can be righteous be being faithful to the Ten Commandments. We must be faithful to Jesus. Jesus presented himself to his Father on the day of his resurrection as a living sacrifice, and He became the one to redeem us from trying to establish our own righteousness by keeping the commandments. Now, thorough Jesus Christ, we are made the righteousness of God. Anyone who claims to be righteous by keeping the commandments or because they do not commit any sin, have a righteousness which is of no avail for it has been done away with by the death and resurrection of Jesus our Lord. We can not say the Ten Commandments are to be done away with. It is the righteousness which was once obtained by keeping the commandments which is done away with. This is why we glory in Christ Jesus at all times for He is our righteousness if we choose to walk and continue in his word. We follow after new laws the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus Romans 8:1-3. Jesus is the end of the law of righteousness Romans 10:4. You were a righteous Jew when you kept the commandments. It is now in us thorough the words of the bible which are spirit and life John 6:63.
It is much like the Sabbath. The Sabbath has been done away with because the Lord of the Sabbath whom we serve daily is the forerunner. We are resting in the words of Jesus and not resting on any particular day as the Sabbath day was foreshadowing of things to come. Jesus is the head of the Ten Commandments for righteousness sake, and He is also the head of the Sabbath for rest's sake. In Christ we have ceased to work for our own righteousness. We need to be born of God and do what the Bible is telling us to do. "Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he can not sin, because he is born of God." 1st John 3:9. Strive to enter in at the straight gate, and to sin no more. "
We get mixed up all the time, because our old mind hasn't totally BEEN RENEWED to the mind of Christ.
The end of the world is one example.
The end of the world (age) (in the fullness of time) came when Christ was resurrected, he said: Behold, I make all things new.
Probably a more accurate translation would be the end of the AGE, or the fullness of time.
The 1000 year reign with Christ is NOW, running parallel, with this age, but we are not of this age, because in the fullness of time we became a new creation.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this age, be be ye TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING (all things have become new) of your mind.
He give us the parable of the seed, Christ, being the SEED.
The corn plant was the example.
If you plant a corn SEED in the ground, that SEED will DIE, and a green plant will emerge, that looks nothing like the SEED that was planted.
That plant grows and as it matures it slowly begins to naturally die, then the SEED is harvested by the farmer, and the good SEED is put in the barn.
It's put in the barn to be used as FOOD and for REPLANTING.
This is exactly what happen to the new new creation.
Christ the SEED, DIED, and was raised up, the green plant raised up with Christ (you and I), looks nothing like the SEED, but when we become mature (by the words of God), God sends the angels and they harvest us, our body that brought the SEED to maturity, is no longer needed, it goes back to the ground it came from, and the SEED goes back to the barn to be used as FOOD and REPLANTING SEED.
The OLD saints, now chariots of fire, and all that have been harvested in the last 2000 years, have become SEED for eating and replanting, they are workers in God's vineyard, all called at different hours of the day, they are causing you to mature and become a SEED.
"And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon."
What role does a curse play in the genealogy in the generation of Jesus Christ?
Jermiah records it, "Thus saith the Lord, Write ye this man childless, a man that shall not prosper in his days: for no man of his seed shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Judah." (Je.22:28-30) He was an ancestor of Joseph, the husband of Mary. The Spirit gives us the difference between Jesus, the son of David and the son of Abraham. This is the difference between the humanity and the deity of Jesus. When Jesus avoided being taken by some who wanted to proclaim him as the king he was true to his calling. "My kingdom is not of this world." ( John 18:36)
He came to the world to be a curse for us. "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree." (Gal.3:13) Deity of Jesus suffered ignominy of death on a cross but from his resurrection he sent a clear signal that he is the Redeemer. (Jesus cursing the fig tree must be explained in not recognizing that he was without sin and was blessed of his Son.)
The generation of Jesus is based upon faith (the man) the Word (the Law) and the word became flesh. In studying Gospels for that matter the Bible without applying the three creates heresy. His religion,-'faith with works' works because he denies himself , takes up his cross and follows Jesus Christ. Abiding in Christ is life everlasting.
"And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;"
In order to understand the relationship of the twins in the generation of Jesus Christ we shall compare the birth of Jacob and Esau.
Jacob and Phares are deemed as heirs of promise, of blessings that God held out to Abraham.(Ge.12:3). 'All families of the earth' must be set in context of the sayings of Jesus."But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first."(Matt.19:30) and "So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen."(Matt.20:16) Between these two the text gives each its own thrust. Israel was cast out though they were the first. The overcomer, indicating those who followed Jesus,"Ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel."(19:28). Following chapter is about a Parable of the Laborers in the Vineyard which is about the generation of Jesus Christ. They were hired at an agreed charge so soul establishes their generation and only 'in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory' who are chosen and who are worthy of everlasting life shall be settled. "For my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life," Hundredfold says it all, and let us check this verse, "Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me."(Matt.16:24) it is those,'Let him deny himself those who take up cross and those who follow him" Period.
Phares and Zara were twins. Zara showed as Jacob showed in an earlier instance a clear indication even while in his mother's womb. The scarlet thread upon his hand now creates its own passage, predestination as the touchstone of the generation of Jesus Christ distinct from that of genealogy.
"And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread upon his hand: and his name was called Zarah."(Ge.38:30)
Pray for our family, my wife filed for divorce, she professes to be saved, but her actions do not show it. She suffers from mental illness, she needs healing.
"And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him."(v.1) St Matthew sets Jesus in the backdrop of a mount which is significant as the traditional names are besides the point. Similarly his transfiguration is set against 'an high mountain.' Luke sets Jesus differently, "And he came down with them, and stood in the plain,",- and his sermon more or less follows the same doctrine that he brought from his Father.( Luke 6:17) St Matthew chose to give the backdrop in terms of the stone, "Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation."(Is.28:16). The House that Wisdom built and the seven pillars thereof, casts ints shadow into the narrative. Zion, the stone is a symbol. He references the generation of Jesus with allusions so we have besides Isaiah (1:22-23),another from Zechariah,"All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,/Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass." (Matt.21:4-5)
Of all the Gospel writers, Matthew's use of the Hebrew Bible is the most extensive. His Gospel contains approximately 124 quotations and allusions. Of which we take the Generation of Jesus Christ in the context of Zion.
St Peter qualifies the mount of transfiguration as 'the holy mount'(2 Pe.1:18). This mount was sanctified or set apart for the generation of Jesus Christ.
Coming back to the Genesis account it marks the seventh day. The terms we have examined in terms of the Abstract such as day, the pillar refer to the fulfillment and it is a command number used by the Spirit to refer the generation of heavens. It is thus the stone serves as a symbol more so in the manner St Matthew uses it in the gospel.
Without abiding in Jesus Christ by faith his deity would mean little and it like the man looking his natural face in a glass (Jas.1:23-25) Faith with works denote the glory of his deity being impressed therein, 'this man shall be blessed in his deed.' His works cannot seen separate from 'the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.' In short faith establishes every believer as a representative of the generation of Jesus Christ.
Adoption of Seth in place of Abel is how the Spirit has worked out the holy family. This was evident in the genealogy of Adam and we have this Pauline quote,"For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ."(Ro.5:17) This is the gift of righteousness we find in the life of Abraham. "And he believed in the Lord; and he counted it to him for righteousness."(Ge.15:6) God blessed Abraham, "And in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed." (Ge.12:3)
Where was this blessing first stated? "And God blessed them," (Ge.1:28) God blessed Adam and Eve who represent the Son and the church, his bride. For this reason the Spirit sets him as the last Adam, to establish Jesus Christ as the redeemer for all the families of the earth. It is clearly a heresy to speak of limited salvation as it is to delink faith from works.
We shall see in terms of symbolism how St Matthew has dealt with generation of Jesus Christ in another post.
"The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham." We shall study the Gospel in terms of the deity and humanity of Jesus Christ, beginning with the version of St Matt. Many Bible scholars have noted the Jewish upbringing because of which he uses kingdom of heaven rather than mentioning the name 'God.' They have got it only correct partly. St Matthew begins with the generation unlike other three gospels for the simple reason that it makes connection with generations of heavens in Ge.2:4 "These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens,"
The seven days in the Abstract that precedes are generations and are compared to seven pillars leading us to the new heavens and the new earth in Re.21:1 The Word is clear, "The earth abides forever" because it speaks of the generation of Jesus Christ where it pleased God that all his fulness should in him dwell. It is how we need interpret He.11:3 He framed the worlds by his word so the fulness of God the invisible aspects of the Father is mirrored in the earth. The earth abides forever because it is the inheritance of children of light for whom Jesus Christ is the firstborn of all creation. So new heaven and the new earth is applied exclusively in terms of the just. "The just shall live faith." This we see from the life of Abraham. "By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:/For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God."(He.11:9-10)
"And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made." Ge.2:3) God rested because he blessed man in the sixth 'day' so we may say Abraham was counted righteous because of his faith and had adopted him in his Son. (Ep.1:3)
So Matthew Ch 13 from V 18 onwards , is talking about the very end of this world , after the one thousand year reign of Christ on earth in his Father's Kingdom ! V 49+50 speaks to Revelation Ch 20 !
God bless you.
Thanks for addressing these heresies espoused by "Jordyn", a new screen name of one we have known by other names on here, I believe.
Galatians 1:8-9.
Jordyn said;
Those who believe they DIED and were made ONE in Christ, will never die again.
Those who don't believe they DIED, and the resurrection made them ONE as the Father and Son and son are ONE will be cast into prison, the GRAVE. "Made one in Christ" in Jordyn's opinion means you become Gods"
Is this not another Gospel?
More issues.
Jordyn claims the flesh of the unbelievers is the devil and the bottomless pit mentioned in Revelation 20:2-3 is the grave.
He also claims we are already living in the 1000 years mention in verse 5.
He claims the unbelievers/Devil will be loosed out of the grave, "resurrected" in Revelation 20:7.
After all the dead are raised at the second resurrection, "LOOSED OUT OF THE BOTTOMLESS PIT" the Sons of God "WILL PREACH THE TRUTH TO THEM ABOUT THE TRUTH OF THE RESURRECTION"
LET'S EXAMINE.
Revelation 20:7-8. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
AND SHALL GO OUT TO DECIEVE THE NATIONS which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
(Jordyn says these verses says the unbelievers will preach the truth!)
The bible says Satan will deceive the nations!
So, Jordyn says God will judge the unbelievers by the word of God and give them the truth and mercy given to us, and they will have DIED the second death, and also become the SONS of God and will enter the Kingdom. Thats what he gets out of Revelation 20:2-8.
However, Look at Revelation 22:11-15. SOME REMAIN UNJUST!
Some have right to the tree of life and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Some are seen here in verse 15. "For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
BEWARE OF WHO YOU FOLLOW! NO CHILD OF GOD WOULD DO SUCH BLASPHEMY TO THE WORD OF GOD!
Revelation 22:19.
God bless.
Part 1
Here is something I wanted to address earlier but I had to wait until the weekend due to my busy work schedule.
Jordyn said;
"The wages of UNBELIEF is DEATH.
The Gift of BELIEF is IMMORTAL LIFE and Christ ONLY has IMMORTAL LIFE."
and then in a few more lines you said the unbelief and those who believe will receive eternal life.
SO, THEY BOTH RECEIVES THE GIFT IN HIS THEOLOGY.
Well, there is no reward for the righteous.
HE'S CALLING GOD A CORRUPT JUDGE.
Here is more blasphemy in this theology.
Here is a direct quote of what he stated. (Pay close attention to 1a!
Those who believe they DIED and were made ONE in Christ, will never die again.
1a) "Those who don't believe they DIED, and the resurrection made them ONE as the Father and Son and son are ONE will be cast into prison, the GRAVE. Revelation 20:2-3. End quote.
(Shouldn't it be those who didn't receive Christ and had their names written in the Lambs book of life will be cast into prison?)
Jordyn is saying who ever don't believe in his theology is the unsaved! I WILL COME BACK TO THAT.
1b) After God has gather all his SONS to be priest in the Kingdom, he will resurrect the unbelievers back to their flesh and blood bodies, they will be loosed out of their prison ( Revelation 20:7).
After all the dead are raised at the second resurrection the Sons of God will preach the gospel to them about the truth of the resurrection, judge them by the words of God, and give them the truth and mercy given to us, and they will DIED the second death, and also become the SONS of God. End quote.
SO ACCORDING TO HIM ALL HUMANITY WILL EVENTUALLY BE SAVED.
Recap;
From what he has mentioned in the past, according to him the devil is our flesh.
The bottomless pit mentioned in Revelation 20:2-3 is the grave.
The unbelievers/Devil will be loosed out of the grave, "resurrected" in Revelation 20:7.
I will deal with this in part 2.
See Part 2.
"And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins."(v.21)
Here we have two names which distinguish as we ascribe deity and humanity to the Word becoming flesh.
In this context we do not find God naming Adam. In the Lucan genealogy Adam is qualified as the son of God.("Adam, which was the son of God"- Luke 3:38) The angel who appeared to Mary informs on the other hand of her child, "which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God"- Luke 1:35) One is a son because of the breath of God making him a living soul. The other signifies the Fellowship of God with Man on the basis of the Father Son relationship. This is consequential as far as salvation Plan for man is concerned. "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."(Ac.4:12)
In vv.22-23 we have another name, "That it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,/ Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us." God with us is synonymous with Word which is the constitution or Law of the kingdom of God. Knowledge of the glory of God is tied up Jesus Christ. In his prayer he remarks of the glory, "O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was."( John 17:5)
"For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ." What does the face indicate? God named the firmament heaven (Ge.1:8) so heaven declares the glory (Ps.19:1) indicates a face to which the Magi could read as well as any man by faith would know the will of his Father. God showed only 'back parts' to Moses, meaning through the Law of Moses.
"Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost."
"Now the birth of Jesus was on this wise,"
So begins St Mathew and the Spirit in narrating it tells us a few essential points. God is a Spirit so as 'the only begotten' Son, he embodies the Law. It is intended as the instruction in righteousness so biology of natural man is out of place. So is his rational faculties. "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned."(1 Co.2:14).
Worshiping God in Spirit and truth we make faith the lingua franca because the mystery of his will is not something you may go out and purchase by anything that you may possess as a natural man. St Paul refers to his Will as a mystery so the word becoming flesh and what enables man who is dead in sin to be born in the Spirit can only be understood by faith./"the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself."(Ep.1:9-11)
"God sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions." This was sent forth even before the worlds began. By Law of the Spirit Jesus did not do anything outside and he finger of God is what faith signifies. "But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you."( Luke 11:20) The Spirit overshadowing explains 'the virgin' birth. "Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?/And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God."( Luke 1:34-35)
"So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations."
Here we have earthly events and names of persons graded into generations.
Narrative mode of the Spirit in setting the deity and humanity of Jesus Christ on a single yard stick uses numbers which is user-friendly. It is in the sense mathematics is a human invention so it is convenient to set births deaths of man rise and fall of nations against the Law of the Spirit. Jesus Christ as the fulfillment of the Law accordingly is made manifest in the fulness of time. The Spirit tags the Son by a command number Three. We shall look at three examples which hold relation to the Son. "David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years."(2 Sa.5:4) 2)"And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt"(Ge.41:46) and "And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,"( Luke 3:23). Lives of men in 3x10 set them graded within frame of reference to God the Son. This Law of Gradation groups men events places in terms of the Son. This connection makes heaven and the earth on the same pge and on a single yardstick. Carrying away into Babylon unto Christ, from Abraham and from David are events given in 14 generations. 14x3 =42. In the Revelation we have the beast set in terms of the generation of Jesus Christ. "And power was given unto him to continue forty and two months."(Re.13:5). What is the significance of 42? It refers to the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ. The beast shall be called to account as those children of Belial whom Elisha cursed."And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them."(2 Ki.2:24)
1) The Lord after His crucifixion appeared unto Philip (ONE he taught) and instructed him to visit the eunuch on the wagon. It is clear that God from time to time make use of people HE TAUGHT to go and do work for HIM. Now then if you are not a taught of Christ how will he appear unto you?
2) The eunuch did read the Scripture but did not understand (hidden from). This again shows me if you are not taught by Christ himself or by one he directly taught and or they taught you will not understand the scripture. And therefor not one of HIS. As it is written in the scripture where Jesus told them who did not understand - you dont understand cause you not of my flock.
" John 8:31] Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
[32] And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."
Churches are walking around in their sin with strong delusions to believe a lie to ve damned with. They all believe they are holding onto God's hand when in reality they are holding unto the devil's hand up to their neck in sin and expecting grace to keep on saving them like it is a walk in the park. Churches are not interested in going back to the old road of revival with the King James bible as they have tasted too much of the world and not too much of the word. As Jesus said, his words has no place in them John 8:37. He was talking to Abraham's seed to his people before people were called Christians. Christanity has rejected Jesus Christ the Son of God as prophesied abs accepted the world and the bible in 2nd Cor 6 tells us to come out from amoung them. Come out of the synagogues of Satan who refuse the love of the truth and walk hand in hand with your pocketbook and nothing for the saving of the soul. You find a evangelist who believes in the perfecting of the saints and does not rebell agianst the words of the Gospel of Christ the King Janes Bible. For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft...this is what the church is engaged in their abominations and their carnal minded fun only to be cast into hell after with no fear of God before their eyes.
The law of Moses made nothing perfect, it was the brining in of the better hope that did Hebrews 7:9. The law of spirit and life as Jesus'words are spirit and life John 6:63. Churches of all kinds are still bound by the old law, that is why they still celebrate the Sabbath when Jesus is now our rest and not the Sabbath day anymore.
Gal.3[24] Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
[25] But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster
Rev 14:13] And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
Hebrews 4:8] For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
[9] There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
[10] For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.
Romans 8:1] There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
[2] For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
[3] For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
It is much like the Sabbath. The Sabbath has been done away with because the Lord of the Sabbath whom we serve daily is the forerunner. We are resting in the words of Jesus and not resting on any particular day as the Sabbath day was foreshadowing of things to come. Jesus is the head of the Ten Commandments for righteousness sake, and He is also the head of the Sabbath for rest's sake. In Christ we have ceased to work for our own righteousness. We need to be born of God and do what the Bible is telling us to do. "Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he can not sin, because he is born of God." 1st John 3:9. Strive to enter in at the straight gate, and to sin no more. "
There is no end of the world.
Ephesians 3:21 .... world without end ...
We get mixed up all the time, because our old mind hasn't totally BEEN RENEWED to the mind of Christ.
The end of the world is one example.
The end of the world (age) (in the fullness of time) came when Christ was resurrected, he said: Behold, I make all things new.
Probably a more accurate translation would be the end of the AGE, or the fullness of time.
The 1000 year reign with Christ is NOW, running parallel, with this age, but we are not of this age, because in the fullness of time we became a new creation.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this age, be be ye TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING (all things have become new) of your mind.
He give us the parable of the seed, Christ, being the SEED.
The corn plant was the example.
If you plant a corn SEED in the ground, that SEED will DIE, and a green plant will emerge, that looks nothing like the SEED that was planted.
That plant grows and as it matures it slowly begins to naturally die, then the SEED is harvested by the farmer, and the good SEED is put in the barn.
It's put in the barn to be used as FOOD and for REPLANTING.
This is exactly what happen to the new new creation.
Christ the SEED, DIED, and was raised up, the green plant raised up with Christ (you and I), looks nothing like the SEED, but when we become mature (by the words of God), God sends the angels and they harvest us, our body that brought the SEED to maturity, is no longer needed, it goes back to the ground it came from, and the SEED goes back to the barn to be used as FOOD and REPLANTING SEED.
The OLD saints, now chariots of fire, and all that have been harvested in the last 2000 years, have become SEED for eating and replanting, they are workers in God's vineyard, all called at different hours of the day, they are causing you to mature and become a SEED.

God Bless YOU!
"And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon."
What role does a curse play in the genealogy in the generation of Jesus Christ?
Jermiah records it, "Thus saith the Lord, Write ye this man childless, a man that shall not prosper in his days: for no man of his seed shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Judah." (Je.22:28-30) He was an ancestor of Joseph, the husband of Mary. The Spirit gives us the difference between Jesus, the son of David and the son of Abraham. This is the difference between the humanity and the deity of Jesus. When Jesus avoided being taken by some who wanted to proclaim him as the king he was true to his calling. "My kingdom is not of this world." ( John 18:36)
He came to the world to be a curse for us. "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree." (Gal.3:13) Deity of Jesus suffered ignominy of death on a cross but from his resurrection he sent a clear signal that he is the Redeemer. (Jesus cursing the fig tree must be explained in not recognizing that he was without sin and was blessed of his Son.)
The generation of Jesus is based upon faith (the man) the Word (the Law) and the word became flesh. In studying Gospels for that matter the Bible without applying the three creates heresy. His religion,-'faith with works' works because he denies himself , takes up his cross and follows Jesus Christ. Abiding in Christ is life everlasting.
"And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;"
In order to understand the relationship of the twins in the generation of Jesus Christ we shall compare the birth of Jacob and Esau.
Jacob and Phares are deemed as heirs of promise, of blessings that God held out to Abraham.(Ge.12:3). 'All families of the earth' must be set in context of the sayings of Jesus."But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first."(Matt.19:30) and "So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen."(Matt.20:16) Between these two the text gives each its own thrust. Israel was cast out though they were the first. The overcomer, indicating those who followed Jesus,"Ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel."(19:28). Following chapter is about a Parable of the Laborers in the Vineyard which is about the generation of Jesus Christ. They were hired at an agreed charge so soul establishes their generation and only 'in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory' who are chosen and who are worthy of everlasting life shall be settled. "For my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life," Hundredfold says it all, and let us check this verse, "Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me."(Matt.16:24) it is those,'Let him deny himself those who take up cross and those who follow him" Period.
Phares and Zara were twins. Zara showed as Jacob showed in an earlier instance a clear indication even while in his mother's womb. The scarlet thread upon his hand now creates its own passage, predestination as the touchstone of the generation of Jesus Christ distinct from that of genealogy.
"And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread upon his hand: and his name was called Zarah."(Ge.38:30)
"And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him."(v.1) St Matthew sets Jesus in the backdrop of a mount which is significant as the traditional names are besides the point. Similarly his transfiguration is set against 'an high mountain.' Luke sets Jesus differently, "And he came down with them, and stood in the plain,",- and his sermon more or less follows the same doctrine that he brought from his Father.( Luke 6:17) St Matthew chose to give the backdrop in terms of the stone, "Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation."(Is.28:16). The House that Wisdom built and the seven pillars thereof, casts ints shadow into the narrative. Zion, the stone is a symbol. He references the generation of Jesus with allusions so we have besides Isaiah (1:22-23),another from Zechariah,"All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,/Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass." (Matt.21:4-5)
Of all the Gospel writers, Matthew's use of the Hebrew Bible is the most extensive. His Gospel contains approximately 124 quotations and allusions. Of which we take the Generation of Jesus Christ in the context of Zion.
St Peter qualifies the mount of transfiguration as 'the holy mount'(2 Pe.1:18). This mount was sanctified or set apart for the generation of Jesus Christ.
Coming back to the Genesis account it marks the seventh day. The terms we have examined in terms of the Abstract such as day, the pillar refer to the fulfillment and it is a command number used by the Spirit to refer the generation of heavens. It is thus the stone serves as a symbol more so in the manner St Matthew uses it in the gospel.
Without abiding in Jesus Christ by faith his deity would mean little and it like the man looking his natural face in a glass (Jas.1:23-25) Faith with works denote the glory of his deity being impressed therein, 'this man shall be blessed in his deed.' His works cannot seen separate from 'the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.' In short faith establishes every believer as a representative of the generation of Jesus Christ.
Adoption of Seth in place of Abel is how the Spirit has worked out the holy family. This was evident in the genealogy of Adam and we have this Pauline quote,"For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ."(Ro.5:17) This is the gift of righteousness we find in the life of Abraham. "And he believed in the Lord; and he counted it to him for righteousness."(Ge.15:6) God blessed Abraham, "And in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed." (Ge.12:3)
Where was this blessing first stated? "And God blessed them," (Ge.1:28) God blessed Adam and Eve who represent the Son and the church, his bride. For this reason the Spirit sets him as the last Adam, to establish Jesus Christ as the redeemer for all the families of the earth. It is clearly a heresy to speak of limited salvation as it is to delink faith from works.
We shall see in terms of symbolism how St Matthew has dealt with generation of Jesus Christ in another post.
"The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham." We shall study the Gospel in terms of the deity and humanity of Jesus Christ, beginning with the version of St Matt. Many Bible scholars have noted the Jewish upbringing because of which he uses kingdom of heaven rather than mentioning the name 'God.' They have got it only correct partly. St Matthew begins with the generation unlike other three gospels for the simple reason that it makes connection with generations of heavens in Ge.2:4 "These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens,"
The seven days in the Abstract that precedes are generations and are compared to seven pillars leading us to the new heavens and the new earth in Re.21:1 The Word is clear, "The earth abides forever" because it speaks of the generation of Jesus Christ where it pleased God that all his fulness should in him dwell. It is how we need interpret He.11:3 He framed the worlds by his word so the fulness of God the invisible aspects of the Father is mirrored in the earth. The earth abides forever because it is the inheritance of children of light for whom Jesus Christ is the firstborn of all creation. So new heaven and the new earth is applied exclusively in terms of the just. "The just shall live faith." This we see from the life of Abraham. "By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:/For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God."(He.11:9-10)
"And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made." Ge.2:3) God rested because he blessed man in the sixth 'day' so we may say Abraham was counted righteous because of his faith and had adopted him in his Son. (Ep.1:3)
