They Threatened them saying, "Speak no more in the Name of this Jesus....The First Churches Response and Prayer Against that threat......deno.

Acts 4:18-31...Good News Translation 

18 So they called them back in and told them that under no condition were they to speak or to teach in the name of Jesus. 19 But Peter and John answered them, “You yourselves judge which is right in God's sight—to obey you or to obey God. 20 For we cannot stop speaking of what we ourselves have seen and heard.” 21 So the Council warned them even more strongly and then set them free. They saw that it was impossible to punish them, because the people were all praising God for what had happened. 22 The man on whom this miracle of healing had been performed was over forty years old.

The Believers Pray for Boldness
23 As soon as Peter and John were set free, they returned to their group and told them what the chief priests and the elders had said. 24 When the believers heard it, they all joined together in prayer to God: “Master and Creator of heaven, earth, and sea, and all that is in them! 25 By means of the Holy Spirit you spoke through our ancestor David, your servant, when he said,

‘Why were the Gentiles furious;
    why did people make their useless plots?
26 The kings of the earth prepared themselves,
    and the rulers met together
    against the Lord and his Messiah.’
27 For indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together in this city with the Gentiles and the people of Israel against Jesus, your holy Servant, whom you made Messiah. 28 They gathered to do everything that you by your power and will had already decided would happen. 29 And now, Lord, take notice of the threats they have made, and allow us, your servants, to speak your message with all boldness. 30 Reach out your hand to heal, and grant that wonders and miracles may be performed through the name of your holy Servant Jesus.”

31 When they finished praying, the place where they were meeting was shaken. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to proclaim God's message with boldness.

An Atheist Remark about God......deno.....share freely.

Yula Flournoy ....Kathy Towns remarks..... if nothing is too hard for god, can you ask him to stop starving kids. Because that's really not nice.

Deno Smith to Yula.
      God gave us the power, the plenty, and the ability to raise the children, to nourish and to cherish them. It is not God or His heart that is the problem. He gave us all as His gift (THE PLANET) with all its vast resources, and God gave us all our children to love, care for, nourish and to raise. He gave us the know how and the plenty to feed all and to take care of all. It is our evil hearts of greed and selfishness that is starving the children and withholding from them, Not God.
     We should judge ourselves in this matter, NOT GOD. He did His part. He gave us the planet, the plenty, and the power over it all and the ability to till it. Instead of exercising our passions on blaming God for the children starving and trying to say that He is some sort of an evil monster, if we have the power to feed the poor and we do, and if it is in our ability to do so but we don't, WHO THEN IS THE REAL MONSTER?... WE THEN ARE THE EVIL MONSTERS, not the Lord our Redeemer who loved us and gave himself for us.. So I ask you, who is the evil one, God or us ?

Hosea's Plea for Israel. Our Plea for the Church.....deno...

HOSEA PLEAS FOR ISRAEL.

Hosea 14:1-8 GNT

Hosea's Plea to Israel
14 Return to the Lord your God, people of Israel. Your sin has made you stumble and fall. 2 Return to the Lord, and let this prayer be your offering to him: “Forgive all our sins and accept our prayer, and we will praise you as we have promised. 3 Assyria can never save us, and war horses cannot protect us. We will never again say to our idols that they are our God. O Lord, you show mercy to those who have no one else to turn to.”

The Lord Promises New Life for Israel
4 The Lord says,

“I will bring my people back to me.
I will love them with all my heart;
    no longer am I angry with them.
5 I will be to the people of Israel
    like rain in a dry land.
They will blossom like flowers;
    they will be firmly rooted
    like the trees of Lebanon.
6 They will be alive with new growth,
    and beautiful like olive trees.
They will be fragrant
    like the cedars of Lebanon.
7 Once again they will live under my protection.
They will grow crops of grain
    and be fruitful like a vineyard.
    They will be as famous as the wine of Lebanon.
8 The people of Israel will have nothing more to do with idols;
    I will answer their prayers and take care of them.
Like an evergreen tree I will shelter them. I am the source of all their blessings.”

Nothing But The Blood Of Jesus and GODS RECORD KEEPING....deno.

 John 8:13-14 

13 The Pharisees therefore said unto him, You bear record of yourself; thy record is not true. 14 Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know where I came down from, and where I am going back to; but you cannot tell where I came from and the place where I shall return unto.

.......Jesus bore witness of himself, of his life, and he bore witness to the fact that he even came down from heaven and that God was his father. Christ whole existence in heaven before our time and beyond and his presence here on earth before these people were HIS RECORD. Concerning Christ record these that opposed him said, YOUR RECORD IS NOT TRUE. They were calling Jesus a liar, but they were the ones lying about the record of Jesus. Jesus as always, was telling the truth.
.......Do you realize that we all have a RECORD and that record bears witness to the real truth about us all? I mean every word we have ever spoken in pleasure or in pain, or in idleness or in fruitfulness are recorded on our record. Every good thing we have done and every time we sinned is recorded, and is still being recorded. Even all the secret things of our hearts and of our imaginations fill up the day to day pages of our record kept in heaven concerning us..
.......These men who were opposing Jesus were trying to lie about the RECORD of Jesus, but the true record kept on each of us every day, cannot by the lies of men be alter'ed or changed. NO WAY...Now on earth between men, people can lie about their records, cover up about their records, but not before God. God sees all and it is the absolute truth that God deals with in his dealings with every mans record. No one can con God. NO ONE. We may can fool people, but God sees all and He has the last word about all.
........But there is some GOOD NEWS. Jesus, the bible said, he went about all Judea, teaching about the Good News..Let us look into some of that Good News and into correct doctrine..
.........Paul preached that everyone of us are letters being read by all. Since our birth our own self has been the ink and the pen and our lives the pens lettering that writes our own daily record before God.
The pages are surely filled. They are filled with the good things we have said and done, and those pages are filled with all the bad words and all the sins we have done. Our record contains all those things we did in the secret places of our hearts and those we do more bodily and even in the open at times in front of others. Our records are full and kept and they contain the all about our spirit, soul and body life deeds, words spoken, and functions. Even at this moment as I write this light and as you read it, this to is being recorded.
........Knowing the truth about heavens full and complete record keeping and that it is we ourselves writing our own justification unto life in heaven or writing a record against ourselves unto condemnation, such truth should alert and alarm us all.
........Take a brief mental moment and think what you have written in your record about yourself throughout the years. You are your records own author. You and only you place all the periods at the end of each spoken word and at the end of every carried out deed you did.
.........You may be reading right now your past record and what you are reading scares you and fills you with lots of regret and shame, even embarrassment. You think to yourself and say, what am I going to do about all that. You go grab a rubber eraser and you scrub your record like crazy with all your might until you get blisters on your hands, only to find out that the eraser you applied does nothing to change what is written in your record. That ugly embarrassing part or pages you wrote still remains.
.........So in your concern you try to think religiously. You say, oh i know what to do. So in your wisdom you start going all over the place, all over your neighborhood and other cities, and in them you go about doing GOOD DEEDS to friends and to strangers. You even go feed poor people and cloth some naked children. You even go to church anew and you give alms and offerings to help others and to help the spreading of the gospel and in your wisdom after doing all those things, you say, now, NOW SURELY ALL THESE GOOD THINGS AND DEEDS I AM DOING HAS CLEARED OUT MY RECORD OF ALL THOSE SINS AND THOSE UGLY EMBARRASSING THINGS THAT WERE ON THOSE MANY PAGES OF MY PAST.
.........You run to go back and read your record again anticipating some good news. But your in shock at your finding. Your record is still the same. All those sins and embarrassing ugly things you did and said, they still stand out to condemn you and all those good deeds you found out were powerless to erase from your record the sins and all that ugly from your past.. Your now at a loss.
..........You go and sit down weeping and crying because you know nothing else to do. But little do you know, that where this has taken you, is exactly where the Lord and the blood of his Cross's wisdom and power is located to be found and is seated there in your helplessness with you, to find you. What we could do for ourselves and what we cannot do for ourselves God did in the giving of the blood of His Son.
..........Gods word says without the shedding of blood there is no removal, no erasing of sin. Without the shedding of Christ blood all sin remains. ALL OF IT...This is the Wisdom of God that God poured out for us all, only to be found in the blood of HIS SONS CROSS.
..........John wrote that we are all to be washed in the blood of the Lamb, the blood of the Lamb of God Jesus Christ that takes away the sin of the world. His blood, Christ blood can only erase sin and is the only thing on earth that can save us from our past AND FROM ALL THAT EMBARRASSMENT.
.......... The bible says that love HIDES and COVERS and CLEANSES US OF ALL OUR SIN, but for LOVE to cleanse us of all our sins, God uses the blood of Christ to accomplish what LOVE HIMSELF wants to hide.
...........I don't know about you but how I thank God for the blood of Christ. Because of HIS BLOOD I can face tomorrow when I stand before THE KING KNOWING THE KING WAS FOR ME AND NOT AGAINST ME AND HE WASHED ME AND MY RECORD IN HIS OWN PRECIOUS BLOOD EVERY TIME I CONFESSED MY SINS UNTO THE LORD.
..........That which the Sons blood has washed away is no longer on OUR RECORD....As it is written, I will be merciful says the Lord thy Redeemer. I will be merciful into their unrighteousness and their sins and their iniquities I will not remember ever again. Our Redeemer also said, Though your sins be as scarlet they shall be white as snow. Then he took the GOOD NEWS even further for our joy to be made more full. He said, I WILL SEPARATE YOU FROM YOUR SINS AND SHAME AND THAT SEPARATION SHALL BE AS FOR AS EAST IS TO THE WEST.
...........Friends those scriptures are from the GOOD NEWS that Christ blood speaks unto us. Good deeds have their place, but no good deed of ours can remove sins from our RECORD, on the BLOOD OF CHRIST HAS THAT POWER....Are you WASHED in the BLOOD of the Lamb Jesus Christ? I'm washed daily....AMEN.....deno......share freely.

Deno's Commentaries....Luke 1:2.....share freely......deno.

Luke 1:2)  Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eye witnesses, and ministers  OF THE WORD.

      In the beginning was THE WORD, and the WORD was WITH GOD and THE WORD was God. Everything was made and created BY THE WORD and nothing was made without THE WORD..That SAME creating, unfailing, never can fail Word became flesh and dwelt amongst us and we BEHELD THE WORDS GLORY....John chapter one.
       The glory and the power of THE CREATING WORD OF GOD IS WHAT THEY SAW AND ARE TESTIFYING TO. That same WORD has a name that is above every Name and His Name Is Jesus The Christ, the Son of God.

      As Anointed and as glorious as Jesus was on earth and is, so also are THE WORDS he spoke anointed, glorious, fully alive, and full of power. They said of Christ words, His Word Was With Power. What he said or spoke, no matter how great the task that Jesus demanded of HIS WORDS, those task, those miracles happened EVERY TIME. 

       The WORDS GLORY and its unfailing POWER greatly demonstrated that had become flesh was what Luke and the other eye witnesses were testifying to. The Words love and Wisdom, the WORDS unfailing power was what drew everyone in Israel to Christ who was and is THE WORD OF GOD THAT IS ANOINTED WITH THE HOLY GHOST AND FILLED FULL OF GODS POWER.

      The Word had become flesh and dwelt amongst men and men saw and testified and experienced the results of the Power that was in THE WORD OF GOD. They said of Jesus THE WORD OF GOD, they said for many sought to touch him THE WORD, for power flowed from him THE WORD and as many as extracted by faith THAT POWER that was in THE WORD, they were healed. THE WORDS HEALING'S AND MIRACLES AND PROVISIONS was the glory that the eyewitnesses beheld and do testify to

       While dwelling with men The Word shined its light of life from above. THE WORD healed many and provided for multitudes, and performed incredible healing's and miracles of the providing type. Even miracles that provided for TAX PAYMENTS the word performed. These healing's and miracles and provisions wrought by THE WORD was the glory that was so attractive about Jesus, THE WORD. This was the glory they were beholding, the glory of the ANOINTED, FULLY ALIVE AND FULL OF POWER WORD OF GOD.

      The people who saw and were awed at Jesus were seeing how awing and glorious and powerful THE WORD OF GOD WAS and IS EVEN RIGHT NOW. There exist no separation of JESUS and THE WORD OF GOD. TO GOD THEY ARE THE SAME. To us Jesus and THE WORD OF GOD must be the same also for CHRIST HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE WORD..

      The Word had died. The Word was crucified and THE WORD rose again from the dead to show forth even more of its GLORY, the GLORY OF THE WORD OF GOD THAT CANNOT FAIL NO MATTER WHAT COMES AGAINST IT WHETHER RESISTANCE FROM THE  DEVIL OR STORMS RISE UP AND RAGE AGAINST IT. THE WORD PROVED ITS UNFAILING GLORY AGAINST THEM ALL IN JESUS. No matter what comes against THE WORD, THE WORD OF GOD CANNOT FAIL. IT ALWAYS PREVAILS.

       Jesus is THE WORD OF GOD. That is also HIS NAME. As powerful and as alive as JESUS IS in the power of his resurrection so also is every WORD of PROMISE he spoke. The amazing things THAT THE POWERFUL ANOINTED WORD ACCOMPLISHED, those are the things THE WITNESSES and Luke and others are testifying to in their writings. THEY WERE ALL TALKING ABOUT THE AMAZING WORD OF GOD THAT HAD BECOME FLESH AND SHOWED US ITS LOVE AND INCREDIBLE GLORY IN WORDS, LIGHT, WISDOM, HEALING'S, MIRACLES, IN ITS DEATH and IN ITS FULL OVERCOMING OF DEATH ITSELF IN THE POWER OF HIS RESURRECTION.

       No man ever had such incredible unfailing power in his WORDS as was in JESUS. No man ever spoke like this man Jesus they said. Others said, What kind of man is this among us that even the winds and the seas OBEY HIS WORDS and that even death is overcome by them.

        Jesus said, We all testify to the things which we have seen and have heard and experienced. Luke was now testifying to the things eye witnesses had verified to them with power from on high who had seen the Lord and the power of HIS WORD and had handled him after the glory of his resurrection which when believed brings salvation and gives new life to the spirits of men.

        So in closing what do we write but what Luke himself wrote....Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses to....WHAT WERE THEY EYE WITNESSES TO? THE UNFAILING HOLY CHRIST, THE WORD OF GOD WHOSE WORD CANNOT FAIL NO MATTER WHAT...Jesus is THE WORDS NAME.....Amen....deno....share freely....verse 3 to come.

Matthew 22:34-46....New King James Version.

The Scribes: Which Is the First Commandment of All?..The greatest one.

34 But when the Pharisees heard that He had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. 35 Then one of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him, and saying, 36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?”
37 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
        John wrote, When we love God we love His children also. The real measure of one's love for God can be seen by the way we love one another. The two are un-seperable. 
John wrote by the Spirit, If a man says he loves God but hates his brother (means his fellow man), that man is a liar. Those are pretty stout words used calling a man a liar, but the point had to be made, because there were many spirits that had gone out into the world claiming that they were and are of God and that they knew God. The world is flooded and full of these deceiving misleading spirits...See 1 John 4:1-12.
        But the disciples, (including John) really did know God. He had become flesh and dwelt amongst them for three years. Emmanuel which means GOD WITH US as the prophet Isaiah foretold, had paid the world THE PROMISED BIG DIVINE VISIT THRU CHRIST. And John had seen Him, John had handled Him , touched Him, heard Him, talked face to face with Him, and watched Him in action and everything he observed about Jesus was just awing and so incredible, so not of this world in glory and wisdom and power. 
        Jesus was not just your ordinary man. No one had ever seen such a man as Jesus who was excellent in all his ways AND ANOINTED. He even walked on water and calmed the raging seas. His character and strengths in every way were flawless and without any form of blemish. He was Divine in Spirit and Divine in His thinking. His way of doing things was far above our ways and His level of thinking was as high as heaven is above the earth compared to our level.
         We think according to the flesh. Jesus' wisdom thoughts and thinking was according to the Spirit and Power of God. We use boats to get to the other side because that is on the level of which we think and believe. Jesus uses his feet walking on the water to the other side or FLIES IN THE AIR TO MAKE THE TRIP, because that is the way of HIS MIGHTY THOUGHTS and the level of HIS FAR ABOVE ALL THINKING and BELIEVING. In no way was that water holding Jesus up or down. It was the glory of HIS BELIEVING. He was Emmanuel, God With Us that had become flesh.
John knew Jesus was the Lord from heaven. He knew Jesus was the Word, and that the Word had been with God and that the Word WAS GOD and he knew that THE WORD which was God had become flesh and was now with them. John knew Jesus was and is the brightness of God's glory and the express image of His Person (Heb 1:1-3). And He by witnessing God for three years in action and watching Him in His divine character on earth in the flesh, he knew God was PERFECT LOVE and so MIRACULOUS. His Word was like no others and His Word never failed no matter the weight of the demand put upon them, even to the raising of the dead, or the calming of the seas. His Word made it happen. God was being God in the midst of men.
         After many days of showing great love and compassion to crowds and multitudes by way of miracles, and after healing thousands and thousands who had been oppressed of the devil (Acts 10:38), John heard this incredible Christ one divinely blessed day on earth before men utter the MONUMENTAL WORDS that to this day blesses and brings joy and comfort to many all over the world and has now for 2000 years....Jesus said, BEFORE ABRAHAM WAS, I AM.
Jesus did not just say those INCREDIBLE WORDS and then vanish and just leave the planet. No, Jesus continued mightily to back those words with Love, Power and divine demonstrations of His Glory from on High that backed His love of God light. Jesus had so shook the world in those days with the GLORY of those words I AM, that his fame grew so great that the onlookers one day being heaven struck said, Behold, the whole world has gone after him.
         Many people do not realize HOW BIG THIS MOVE OF GOD ON EARTH WAS IN THOSE DAYS. God was ON EARTH walking with men. God with us in Christ was the most MONUMENTAL MOVE of GOD ever on earth since the fall. Greater than all the esteemed prophets had formerly seen or tasted or experienced. A greater One than Moses is here Jesus shouted and His Father on the mount of transfiguration bore the same Divine Witness in His glistening glory saying, THIS IS MY DIVINE SON WHO I LOVE, LISTEN AND OBEY HIM.
        Jesus one day said to his disciples, If I had not done the works that no other man has ever done before, then Israel would have excuse. But now they have seen and have heard but they still do not believe, therefore there sin remains. In other words Israel had finally broke the back of the patience of God. This is that heir they said in their hearts. Let us kill him and all shall be ours. This was Israels worse transgression.
        Of all the blood of the prophets that Israel had shed thru-out the years (Matthew 23:37-39), this One's (Gods Son) bloodshed would cost them and their children greatly on earth even into eternity. Part of the cost was this. The Covenant of grace would be taken from them and a wild branch (The Gentiles) would be engrafted and the gospel of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:17-21) would be handed over to the gentiles for a period of time for life and for entrustment. Then after the fulness of the time of the gentiles was accomplished, an awakening would take place in Israel. From the offspring of Abraham and of Sarah would be heard the cry, Blessed was Jesus that came to us in the Name of the Lord and Jerusalem in that our would be reborn from within and again shine with the glory of Israel which has always been the Spirit of Jesus Christ the Lord from heaven whom they had pierced in the day of their monumental visitation from Immanuel.
         God had loved Israel for years and they over and over again showed Him as a nation little love back. They often killed the prophets and stoned those He sent to them and now their hearts had become so full of Satan they were about to crucify the Lord of glory HIMSELF, not understanding the day of their visitation. They could not understand HIS GREAT LOVE FOR ALL EVEN FOR THE GENTILES that they despised. But John really got to know God. His ears were amongst the blessed ones that did hear and his eyes were amongst the fortunate ones that did see. Having eyes he saw and having ears he heard.
        John's heart, to simply say it, GOT IT. He understood the Lord and He got to know God's heart and true eternal character maybe more than all (Maybe). He was THAT FRIEND that saw the love of God in Christ. He realized the call and the heritage of Israel was not just unto themselves, but that God had raised Israel up in order to have the REDEEMING COMPASSION of HIS LOVE to reach ALL THE WORLD thru Christ and him crucified and risen from the dead. God clearly has told them their calling in these words to Abraham and HIS SEED.... I will bless you He said, SO THAT you will be a blessing, and in another place. From your seed shall ALL THE NATIONS of the earth BE BLESSED. That seed was Christ. Christ was born from the virgin thru the power of God so that the works of God would be manifested in HIM.
        Yes, John knew the Lord. John knew God. He knew that the rest of mankind was blind and in the darkness and that they had been misled and deceived by Satan about God, about divine things, and the true things of God. But he knew Him, he had seen Him, he spent three years, THREE INCREDIBLE YEARS with Him on earth in the flesh and saw ALL THE GLORY.
        John in those three incredible years with God learned much about God. He came to really know God. He learned that the one true God is love and perfect in holiness and was rich in mercy and compassion. And he knew also that if a man or a woman or a spirit said he or they knew God, or that he loved God but that same man or that same spirit hated his brother or sister or fellow man, or preached a message of hate, he said that man and that spirit is a liar, a false prophet, a deceived heart, a lying spirit, even a murderer, a demonized soul though he seems to even look religious (Islam).
Friends no matter what men say on earth or boast of how much they know God, John who lived and loved with God for three years on earth said, If you say you love God but hate others or are prejudice about others, he said in your heart you are a liar and a murderer, you don't really know Him. All these people all over America, in the middle east, and all over the world that boast that they know God but terrorize and kill in the name of their god, and that hate others and preach hate by skin tone or by any other dividing differences ARE LYING...Jesus even said, Love your enemies. Do good to those that do you wrong. Pray for those who use you and persecute you. By doing so Jesus said you would be like your Father which is in heaven. LET US LOVE ONE ANOTHER AS CHRIST LOVED US.

Jesus: How Can David Call His Descendant Lord?
41 While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, 42 saying, “What do you think about the Christ? Whose Son is He?”
They said to Him, “The Son of David.”
43 He said to them, “How then does David in the Spirit call Him ‘Lord,’ saying:
44 ‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at My right hand,
Till I make Your enemies Your footstool”’?

45 If David then calls Him ‘Lord,’ how is He his Son?” 46 And no one was able to answer Him a word, nor from that day on did anyone dare question Him anymore.

Deno's Commentaries..Luke 1:1)

Luke 1:1) For as much as many have taken in hand to set forth a declaration of THOSE THINGS which are MOST SURELY BELIEVED among us.

Comments and Notes:
        For as much as MANY have taken in hand....Oh the zeal of Gods people, their desire to share His Words and testify to the remarkable VISITATION of God himself to the world. A visitation that came to us in the fashion and form of human flesh as foretold by the prophet Isaiah. Isaiah fore wrote, Behold the virgin shall conceive and give birth to a Son, a Son born of a virgin, born from a womb never touched by man. A Son whom God would ANOINT WITH THE HOLY GHOST AND POWER....As Jesus said, The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me for God has Anointed me.
       Jesus the Christ which means The Anointed One, Messiah, was that PROMISED SON called and sent by God in the FIRST VISITATION as THE LAMB OF GOD to take away the sin of the world and to fulfill the REDEEMING WORDS of the prophets concerning the passion of the Christ as written in the book of Isaiah the 52, 53, 54 chapters...It was written, For the sins of My People shall he be stricken.

       What these people wrote of this foretold VISITATION is both true and MOST SURELY BELIEVED  by all the first eye witnesses and by you and I called by Jesus the blessed, the blessed who have not yet seen yet STILL BELIEVE.

       These witnesses had seen Gods Son or heard from those who had. Many of these were those who saw the Lord both before and after His ransoming passion on the Cross where upon he shed his sinless blood, died for our sins and three days later rose again for our true, real and everlasting hope (Romans 4:24-25). THESE THINGS of Romans 4:24-25 Paul who also SAW THE LORD after the resurrection wrote them and these written truths are MOST SURELY BELIEVED amongst us.

       Jesus Christ and him crucified and risen from the dead is the FOUNDATION of our SALVATION and faith. This is the truth and this is the very foundational belief of all THE CHURCH OF GOD, of the things of Christ that we THE CHURCH most surely know and believe......deno......verse 2 to come.....share freely.
