From my heart to yours. People have their reasons. Try to understand them with the love and patience from Christ. The enemy has preyed on or against every soul, upon you, me, upon everyone. He has formed his works against all, even against the whole world. The hurts in some are deep unto deep. The wounds of the betrayer against us all, well people carry the pain of those wounds in their souls. People cry due to the affliction. They just can't seem to erase the pain no matter what they take, say, or do.Their eyes are full of sorrows rain due to the pain. They want to be loved. They want to be free.They want to take the leap of faith but often times the pain that the enemy has afflicted their lives and soul with makes them wonder if such a great love as Christ really exist and is all real and ready for their entrance. Love is patient, so be patient unto all. Love suffers long so be long suffering with all by Christ in you. Jesus Christ is loves answer unto all for all....Jesus said, the Spirit of the Lord is upon me for He hath anointed me to heal the broken hearted and to set at liberty those that are bruised......It is in the Anointing.....Love, Gods Love is the Anointing's Heart.....deno.
Sin can only literally die in Christ. Sin can only be destroyed and abolished, and done away with by the blood of Christ. Nothing else in all creation is a match for sins power. Hell is full of this fact and Heaven is lacking many due to this truth not being known, believed and trusted in.. All our good intentions, all our good efforts, all our good works under or above the Law, none of those things can remove, take away, do away with, or abolish sin. Only by the shedding of Christ blood and only by being connected to Christ blood stream can sin die, be done away with, be removed, be cleansed, be forgiven, forgotten, and abolished. By all other means or efforts that people do to justify and to save themselves, all of it together leaves sin still at the door and fully naked and seen by Gods eyes. Good deeds cannot wash away sin, Only blood. God preached this truth from the beginning. This is why faith in Christ and His Blood, His Death, and His Resurrection is most important above all else and above all other things. Friends, our GOOD EFFORTS, OUR GOOD WORKS AND DEEDS can never take away or atone for sin. Sin leaves ugly stains that we cannot see with our natural eyes nor remove with natural forces or by means of natural thought and wisdom. But God certainly can see all our sin spots, stains, and blemishes, and he certainly had the wisdom to combat all the power of sin. He sent us Jesus His Son from heaven itself with the supernatural power of His Eternal Spirit mixed with flesh and blood in the womb of the virgin, so that thru the power of His eternal Spirit mixed with blood He could TAKE AWAY SIN by the blood from the sacrifice of Himself.. God fully knows that no works of natural fallen men can take away the ugly stains, spots, and blemishes of sin. That is why He sent Jesus to shed His blood to take away sin and sins stains with all its residue, even the sin of all the world it can remove thru the greatness of its atoning power. So we work and we do good things not to save ourselves. We do good deeds not thinking to save ourselves from sin by our good deeds, but we believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and in the saving grace and power of His Atoning blood for eternal redemption. He by His blood is able to save to the uttermost all who call upon His Name in faith. We work to obey the One who we know bought us with a price, with the price of His own precious blood with thanksgiving. Lets not get confused over where our good deeds and good works fall in the redemption line up.....deno.....Ephesians 2:1-10.....deno....Jesus Is Wonderful.
2 Timothy 2:421st Century King James Version (KJ21) 4 No man who warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. Mark 4:18-1921st Century King James Version (KJ21)...Jesus gives the Word and the Instructions. 18 And these are they which are sown among thorns, such as hear the Word, 19 but the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the Word, and it becometh unfruitful. Luke 14:17-2021st Century King James Version (KJ21)....Jesus gave them work to do and a place to come unto. 17 And he sent his servant at suppertime to say to them that were bidden, ‘Come, for all things are now ready.’ 18 And they all with one accord began to make excuses. The first said unto him, ‘I have bought a piece of ground, and I need to go and see it. I pray thee have me excused.’ 19 And another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to test them. I pray thee have me excused. 20 And another said, "I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come. Luke 21:34-21st Century King James Version (KJ21) 34 “And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting and drunkenness and cares of this life, and so that Day come upon you unawares. 1 Corinthians 7:322...1st Century King James Version (KJ21) 32 But I would have you be without cares. He that is unmarried careth for the things which belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord; Hebrews 13:52..1st Century King James Version (KJ21) 5 Let your manner of living be without covetousness (Don't covet your neighbors house, wife, nor anything that is his. Do not love the world neither the things of the world), and be content with such things as ye have. For He hath said, “I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. 1 Peter 5:6-72..1st Century King James Version (KJ21) 6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, 7 casting all your cares upon Him, for He careth for you. Luke 10:40-4221st Century King James Version (KJ21) 40 But Martha was full of the cares and anxiety that comes with much serving, and so she came Jesus and said, “Lord, dost Thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? Command her therefore that she help me.” 41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, “Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about many things. 42 But one thing is needful-important, and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.” Philippians 4:6-72..1st Century King James Version (KJ21) 6 Do not be weighed down with the cares if this life, but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Answering The Questions? Did Jesus please God? Yes he did and he did so perfectly. Did He please God only for himself, or did he please the Father for the blessings and benefits of others? All for others. He did not have to come down from heaven to the earth to please God for himself, or to remove any enmity or friction between himself and God, or to obtain peace for himself with the Father. He and the Father have been at perfect peace with one another since before all creations foundations and ever shall be. He (Jesus) did all he did and suffered all that he suffered FOR US. THE CROSS. So we now can ask the question of just how satisfied is the Father with Jesus for us or on our behalf? Was it only a temporal or temporary satisfaction for us, or does it (speaking mainly of the blood of HIS CROSS), does it extend in saving grace and redeeming power effects into the full realms of FOREVER or for all eternity? Answer....Hebrews 9:11)...reads....but Jesus by His own blood, He entered once into the holy place (Heaven Itself) having OBTAINED "FOR US" ETERNAL REDEMPTION (Eternal Everlasting Salvation)....Hebrews 10:14) For by one offering (By the sacrifice of Himself) Jesus has perfected (Means made accepted and complete as to have been crucified with Christ and also risen with Christ in the spirit into the heavenly realms of His glory (Ephesians 2;1-10 & Colossians 3:1-4). For by just one sacrifice, by the sacrifice of himself, Jesus has PERFECTED (made acceptable and complete) FOREVER, which means FOR ALL ETERNITY, those that His sacrifice has sanctified (See Hebrews 10:10-14). The power of the Cross and Blood of Jesus Christ and His Resurrection purpose and justifying power is to be FOREVER and FOR ALL ETERNITY the beginning of our confidence that is never ever to be changed, neither replaced, nor compromised, or altered, or watered down by those who do not have the full revelation of its Love and Eternal Redemption Power. Paul preached all his years that the Cross of Christ is Gods all time answer and that it is forever the power of God unto salvation. This, the message of His Cross and Its Eternal Redemption Power, Paul never changed nor did he altar. He even said CURSED are those that changed the message of the power of Christ redeeming blood, Cross, and Resurrection for the weaker and beggarly elements as he said was found in the Law that could never justify anyone, for the real truth of this matter was that no one could keep the High Standard that the Law demanded (Perfection) (James 2:10 & Galations 3:10-14). The Laws High calling was found to be totally unreachable by sinful fallen man no matter how hard they strove to keep it. Even the Law itself demanded one to flawlessly keep it flawlessly. One sin, one transgression made you guilty of all. Now with that truth and weight weighing against you from the Law, how could you possibly have real hope in the Law with that letter that itself killeth working against you? One transgression makes you guilty of all, meaning as if you never kept any of it. Jesus taught Paul the truth. He taught the Pharisee of all Pharisees that used to make his boast in the keeping of the Law, Jesus taught him that no man could perfectly-flawlessly keep the Law as the Law itself demanded (Perfection). Therefore by the deeds of the Law Jesus said himself to Paul that no person shall be justified in Gods sight for the Law exposes sin and works enmity and wrath between God and men. From that light Jesus taught Paul the truth of Gods Grace in the Cross of Christ and its glorious saving, redeeming, eternal power. He did not teach Paul that the Cross was just a TEMPORARY SOLUTION or only a temporary fix to an eternal problem. No Jesus would never deny himself or his sufferings that way, for doing that would say His Cross is weak and saying that would eventually drive people back under the Law of Moses to try to - in their minds justify and save themselves by their own doings and no by Christ. If Jesus taught and denied the Power of His Blood and Cross, he then would sin against His Own Bloods Power and Purpose if He did that. HE WOULD NOT DO THAT EVER. Paul preached we must all hold firmly (means to never let go of) the beginning of our confidence all the way to the finish line. (Hebrews 3:1-19). Jesus Christ and him crucified and risen from the dead is that beginning, and it is the power of God unto eternal salvation. DON'T LET GO OF IT or exchange it for weaker, beggarly elements as those found in the Law. Christ is All. Christ is the Beginning of our confidence and the all of our confidence. He is the beginning and He is the ending. Christ is our every good thing and only by Christ is any one or any thing accepted......deno.
1 Corinthians 6:20) For you were bought with a price.....Jesus is not in heaven paying a bank loan note each month until the loan is paid for-for you then to be finally his. You Are His. You Are His Full Possession. The note on your account, it's record is kept in the book of life and that book next to your name - it reads, PAID FOR IN FULL. Nothing Owed...This one belongs to Jesus. Paid for in full with a price, with Immanuels Own Precious Blood. Some people are working and working as if UNDER THE LAW to the religious bone trying to become the Lords possession some day, trying to become saved, trying to become redeemed, become risen with Christ, trying to hopefully one day have their names written in the Lambs book of life. But friends the purchase has already been made for you. The transaction has already been fully completed, and when Jesus bought you, well He himself -that one day-BY THE SACRIFICE OF HIMSELF, Paid for you IN FULL. You are not his possession based on your works or deeds lest the blood of His cross be in vain. Lest the price HE PAID be rendered null and void and powerless, of no value. You cannot confuse or deceive Jesus with that talk. You see He was there the day he bought you and he remembers the whole purchase transaction, all it's pains and all the suffering and all the blood....HIS OWN BLOOD. Paul said that the blood of Christ SPEAKS. He said it speaks BETTER THINGS than Abels blood and BETTER THINGS than the blood of the goat, or of the bull, or of the heifer. And you can faith bank on this about to be said, that Christ blood that speaks, His bloods true voice will never ever say of itself and of its power that it is lacking in power to save, or that it is insufficient to redeem, to forgive, or to save to the utter most them that believe. For the blood of His Cross knows that it is the full eternal Power of God to save, to forgive, to cleans, to uphold, to intercede for, and to keep safe all who put their hearts unchanging uncompromising trust in the Lamb of Gods Blood (Jesus Christ) as Israel did that Passover night by which Christ was preached in a mystery. Friends, You were bought with a price and you even to the spirit, the soul, and the body were paid for in full with THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST....This in part is some of that which JESUS HIMSELF REVEALED AND TAUGHT TO PAUL to teach to the church, we call his teachings the Pauline Revelations that Jesus himself taught Paul. On these above mentioned Pauline revelations, Jesus given to him teachings, and on this foundation, and upon the knowledge of the GREAT PURCHASE that Jesus taught Paul, upon the fact that Jesus bought us with an incomparable price (HIS OWN BLOOD) came the light of the gospel of grace and justification by faith in Christ blood and Cross (the free gift), verses the Law and our works comparisons. Many who FORGET the purchase, or have not it's knowledge tend to (in their minds) go back under law style mindness of justification by their deeds (debt still owed mindset) and not by the INCOMPARABLE HIGH VALUE AND POWER OF THE BLOOD OF CHRIST where all true peace comes from and resides when one sees IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD, not of our works (Ephesians 2:1-10). ........We are not to bear the Laws weight anymore......That burden Jesus lifted off of our backs, putting it all ON HIMSELF AT THE CROSS, paying for the Laws Burden & Curse removal, and paying for us to be fully free from the Law and fully His thru the price HE PAID IN FULL thru the blood of His Cross......deno......scroll down.
P.S...When you lose sight of the fact that you were and you are already Christ possession by the price He paid for you in His own blood, if you forget or do not know a real buying transaction was fully completed for you, then that blind spot in your redemption understanding can cause the Pharisees spirit and mind to come into your life and their persuasions will strive to invade your mind and bring you back into what Paul called fear, legalism and Religious Bondage. .......Please read Pauls letter to the Church of the Galations. We are not under the Law but UNDER GRACE and we are Christ possession because He bought us with a Price. With Pains Paid In Full....
Revelations 3:14) And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write, "These things says the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the Creation of God. When Jesus came to the earth he said to Pilate, "For this purpose was I born and for this reason I came into the world, TO BEAR WITNESS TO THE TRUTH....With power and with might and with the signs and wonders of the Holy Spirit with all kinds of miracles of healings, Jesus bore witness to the truth that He is Alpha and Omega, the Beginning of the Creation of God and its coming end to make way for the New Heaven and the New Earth......For me that fully settles the matter. Thru the power of the Holy Spirit we know that Jesus is Lord. We know that by Him were all things made and without Jesus nothing was created that was created. He is the Beginning of the Creation of God. Thru the power of the Holy Spirit we know Jesus is the Christ the Son of God and that He died for our sins and rose again from the dead for our justification. Thru the power of the Holy Spirit we know and believe in the love God has for us. .......Part of the power of the Holy Spirit is KNOWING POWER. When He said all shall KNOW ME from the least to the greatest, He knew this would be accomplished thru the revelation knowing eye opening power of the ANOINTING of the Holy Spirit......Jesus is Wonderful......deno. Luke 24:45) Then Jesus opened their understanding so that they could KNOW & UNDERSTAND the scriptures. 1 Corinthians 2:12).....In Christ Jesus we have received the Spirit of God that we can KNOW God and the things freely given us in Jesus.......So knowing the Lord and learning the things of the Lord is an impartation of the Holy Spirits revealing and eye opening power that we may know Jesus and partake of the power of His resurrection. And Jesus said to the disciples, but who do you say that I am? Peter said, I say you are the Christ the Son of the Living God. Jesus turned to Peter and said. Blessed are you Simon, for flesh and blood did not MAKE THIS TRUTH KNOWN TO YOU but MY FATHER in heaven did....The Holy Spirit gave Peter that knowing. He did the same thing to all of us who believe and belong to Christ. This knowing power is part of the power of the Holy Spirit. EVEN THE MOST IMPORTANT POWER for without the knowing of who Jesus is, then the miracles and the cross are still a mystery trying to be figured out. It is KNOWING who Jesus is in his glory as the beginning of the creation of God, Gods Eternal Son that became flesh because of great love, that knowing makes those miracles and the Cross so wonderful in all their glory.....REDEMPTION GLORY.
GOOD NEWS......Sometimes when I'm feeling those persuasions that are trying to rob my faith and joy and enthusiasm, pointing out my challenges, problems, faults, imperfections, sins, and feel a spirit of discouragement, I have learned to just start praising Jesus who in all things is perfect. Just start pointing out Jesus' perfections with praise. The enemy cannot stand that TRUTH. I tell him, just goes to show you mr devil why none of us are to be idolized by ourselves, or by others, nor to worship ourselves, none of us are worthy of that. But I'm taking you down memory lane and remind you what Jesus told you. We shall worship and praise the Lord our God the perfect One and Him only shall we praise and serve with thankful hearts. If the enemy can keep you and your shortcomings, your sins, failures, weakness, the fleshes corruptions and evil desires, etc. to be over heavy on your mind, he can worry you silly and upend the souls peace and rest. (Brethren we are called to peace). But when we turn our focus on to Jesus the Perfect Savior, hide ourselves IN HIM (Our New Covenant Ark), and from our redemption position of being inside HIM, inside the ARK OF CHRIST Seated Down with Jesus, and begin to point out all the perfect things that is in Jesus OUR ARK, and what Jesus is Himself, and what God has made Jesus TO BE FOR US such as our life Colossians 3:1-4, 1 Corinthians 1:29-31, our salvation, our eternal redemption, our new righteousness, our wisdom, our way and truth, and our sanctification, OUR ESCAPE FROM THE WRATH OF GOD, we will win the wrestling match. We will regain our peace and confidence while the devil flees fearing the wrath of God upon him being cut up with the Sword of the Spirit of truth and redemption. Family let us Stay inside Christ, stay covered up with Him, and stay in these truths in our mind. Sanctify also these same truths in your hearts thinking and knowings, and the enemy cannot toss you. Soon as you grow in the strength these truths impart into you, you will (in Jesus name) with the Word of God toss the enemy. When you notice that the enemy is pressing against you magnifying faults and failures in the unloving way without mercy, Take the words of truth and tell him. IT IS WRITTEN, None of us are worthy or perfect in righteousness, no not one. IT IS WRITTEN, there is no one good but God. But God loved us anyway and Jesus in that love for us laid down his life on the cross and shed his precious blood to redeem us and to save us from our sins. God has made Jesus to be for me my risen Savior. Jesus is my life and my salvation. Jesus himself is my righteousness. Jesus himself is my eternal redemption. Jesus only is my peace with God. Jesus only is my way and truth, my goodness and my access with confidence. Jesus alone is my way into heaven way, and Jesus only is my go unto the Father only way yesterday, today, and forever and this never changes. Jesus is my all in all. I make by boast in Jesus. AS IT IS WRITTEN 1 Corinthians 1:31)...so that he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord Jesus Christ. Let him glory in the things God has made Jesus to be for him. The enemy hates those words being fired back at him. He can find all kinds of fault with us, with you and with me. BUT HE CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG IN JESUS AND IN CHRIST JESUS WE LIVE AND IN CHRIST JESUS WE MOVE, AND IN CHRIST JESUS WE HIDE (Colossians 3:1-4), AND IN CHRIST JESUS WE SIT DOWN INSIDE THE ARK RESTING IN WHAT GOD HAS MADE JESUS HIS SON TO BE FOR US......deno.
