The cross of Christ though filled with chastisement and bloody conflict was never to be preached as a place of the wrath of God but the place, the only place on earth where souls can find and enter eternal peace with God. Paul wrote that God preaches peace by Jesus Christ, not wrath. Jesus Christ said, God did not send me to condemn the world and he did not send me to destroy BUT TO SAVE. It is only in and at and thru the cross of Christ true peace is found with God and then in our hearts and minds as we more thoroughly grasp with understanding what Jesus accomplished for us at the Cross in the sacrifice of himself. Truly Jesus did not die in vain. He was so horribly disfigured and disturbed even to the depths of his soul unto death SO THAT by his sorrows the chastisement that was needful and necessary for our peace with God to be purchased would all in all be fully met and by His Stripes our enmity situation with God was mended and in Christ we are healed. Always always always in the present hour God is preaching peace to us by Jesus Christ. When John the baptist mentioned the wrath of God that is surely to come, he immediately went to pointing out how to avoid the wrath of God, not the dwelling on the wrath of God; and he pointed to Christ the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world, and by that taking away of our sins, Gods wrath is removed off the souls of all them that accept Jesus Christ Gods own chosen Lamb given for our Peace Offering. We all like Abel offer up unto God upon the altar of our faith the Sacrifice and Blood of His Son for our sins, and like Abel we walk away in peace with God thru the Lamb God himself chose for our peace with Him to be obtained, Jesus Christ. And this great covenant Peace we have with God when Jesus is on the altar of our faith as our sins punishments sacrifice. Though we walk and live on in this world at peace with God thru the sacrifice and Peace offering of Christ, we are yet so hated by this world that is full of so many Cains.....deno.....share freely.
Despite the Lords great hurt while on the cross, he still prayed for God to forgive those who wounded him, and so wronged him and hurt him so deeply. We draw from him the love, the strength, and the forgiveness to forgive those who pained us most....deno.....Jesus is Lord.
More revival light.. ......This time revival does not come to our hearts and to our nation by the holier than thou hearts, but by men and women who like the prodigal son when he came back home from a life of many many repeated great sins and of great foolishness was amazed how GREAT GOD STILL LOVED THEM despite how terrible their pleasure seeking sins were against God, against heaven, and against the heritage of their Christian upbringings. ......In the prodigals sons loss of everything, of all his money and inheritance, in great pain and tears he came back home to find the greatest truth about God that stands out above all truths and that truth was Gods Great Love for us all still, despite us.. ......What a message the prodigal son in the bible could so preach of the revelation he found out for himself of the Fathers great love...Sin, even the most embarrassing sins of our generation committed by both male and females, and even the most foolish acts we have committed are no match for the power of Gods reconciling love giving us in Jesus. ......Friends let us all come back home to God. Let us all find out for ourselves the Prodigal Sons great finding about God and the greatness of His love that passes our natural human measure and exceeds this worlds understanding...God loved him the same despite all the son or daughter had done..Note..It is only when that son came home that he really found out about his fathers great love for him......Luke 15:11-32....deno.
......Words written are also the Mouth of His Spirit speaking and Understanding is the real hearing in Christ Jesus and not the vibrations of the physical ear..He that hath ears to hear let him hear. ......When Jesus spoke these words in the pic to the congregation, their ears vibrated but they failed to understand. They took Jesus to the side of the hill to cast him over head first. Yet the bible says Jesus stopped, looked at them and walked away walking right thru their midst..... ......Are we hearing the Lord with our hearts understanding or is just our ears next to our head vibrating???...If it is just our heads ears we may get agitated at Jesus' words and we may want to throw him off a cliff, cast him out of our days, out of our lives, and out of our present event...Maybe even out of our country.....deno.
......The law of Moses was given as a crime stopper and not as a life giver nor as a life Savior....Jesus said to us all... I Am The Way, The Truth and THE LIFE, no one comes unto the Father but by Me. Jesus alone saves us from our crimes and sins. The Law was given to reveal to all of us our great need for Christ and him crucified. Jesus is Risen indeed. As it is written of Jesus, Behold the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the World. And in another place...He shall put away our sins by the Sacrifice of himself......deno.
