Galatians 3:1-6... (NKJV)
Justification by Faith.....deno.
3) vs 1... O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed among you as crucified?
2 This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
3 Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh?
4 Have you suffered so many things in vain—if indeed it was in vain?
5 Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?— 6 just as Abraham “believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.

Deno's notes:
.......Since by believing in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ the Son of God we receive the Sinless Spirit of God miracle (and believe me that is the highest MIRACLE of all miracles when you really understand it, when you SEE the pure sinless, cannot sin, Holy Spirit lives INSIDE US THE SINFUL), we can be assured that salvation we receive by the same faith also. You could not have received the miracle of the receiving INSIDE YOU the Sinless Holy Spirit had you not FIRST been saved and justified by faith for the infilling.
Deno's notes:
.......Those in this scripture were not healed by their good deeds of the holy law but by their faith in Jesus Christ. All the miracles being performed in their midst and in their lives were received by the hearing of faith and faiths action and not by the commandments of the works of the laws commands and demands..
.......Salvation is received the same way. As Paul wrote. Therefore by the deeds of the Law shall no soul be justified..and in another place he wrote..for the law worketh wrath seeing that no man can keep it to its required standard.....and in another scripture we read. Therefore being justified (Made Righteous) BY FAITH we have peace with God.
......When you lose sight of the JUSTIFICATION BY FAITH REVELATION and TRUTH that Jesus gave Paul, you will start to lose your peace, your personal peace and your peace with God.. Your doubts and your misled mind that is taking you away from being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH will also TAKE AWAY your souls rest in Christ and peace..You may even end up becoming a slave to the Law of works AND TO CIRCUMCISION again as you think in your misled mind that by your works/self goodness only you are saved which is not in line with the revelations JESUS GAVE PAUL.
.......Paul called the Law, BONDAGE...Believe me, it took Paul a while to accept that revelation from Jesus, the revelation of being justified by faith in Jesus without the deeds of the Law involved in it someway. Paul had always loved and cherished the Law of his upbringing. His mind was affixed to the way of the Law and by the way of the Law he lived dogmatically. Paul for years and years was the greatest LAW AND WORKS OF THE LAW EXALTER in all of Israel.....If he can get over it...SO CAN YOU....deno..
P.S. Faith in Jesus Christ blood, death, and resurrection is THE NEW and LIVING WAY unto God, unto repentance, unto salvation, unto change of heart and life, unto the infilling of the Holy Ghost, and all miracles.
.
....To Christians, the end times course of this world as told by Jesus in the scriptures was not told to be a downer but an upper. For after saying all the terrible things that are going to come to pass on the earth because of the mystery of iniquity, Jesus said....When you see these things happening LOOK UP and REJOICE EXCEEDINGLY for your great deliverance is at hand...Isn't it good to know that when things are at their worst in this world GREAT DELIVERANCE is at hand and in the darkest hour God sends His Most Marvellous Light.
......Christ came to be the light of a world that had gone dark, and to be preserving Salt to a decaying world that sin was destroying. He Came TO BE A GREAT AND LIVING HOPE when things seemed hopeless and a RESURRECTION TO THAT WHICH IS DEAD. He came to be freedom to the bound and recovery of sight to the blind. To set free the chained and to show love where there was hate. He came to merciful to the sinner, and to fill with living water the dry. Where there was broken hearts Jesus came to mend and where there is boredom he came so that by believing and obeying HIS WORD his joy could be fulfilled in us and our joy made full. Meaning FULFILLMENT and EXCITEMENT thru HIS PRESENCE...
......So what is the sum of the matter. We find it in John 10:10...No matter how awful and ugly goes this world we still have the world overcoming over riding words of John 10:10..Jesus said, Satan the liar and the thief only comes but for to deceive, to steal, kill, and to destroy, to make life seem hopeless and miserable....but I have come to all of you for this purpose, so that you might have life and that you could have it more abundantly. Jesus said this truth when knowing how terrible this world was and was going to get.
.......Friends, thru Christ light and words, beautiful things can still come forth and happen even from the most driest parched land. So there is no reason for any to be filled with dread or hopelessness. We serve a Master, a mighty God who is for us not against us, and wants us to each day have and enjoy his life and presence and that more abundantly EVEN IN THIS WORLD...So when the world goes mad Jesus gave us the right and the calling to GO HIS GLAD...TRUMP NATION we are the Light of the world in Christ.....deno.
JESUS CHRIST FAR ABOVE ALL..
.......After God raised Jesus His Son from the dead, with His power and glory God raised Jesus all the way back up into the paradise of God and SAT JESUS DOWN WITH HIM IN THE THRONE OF GOD. God did that for different reasons, and one of those reasons is this. He was saying to us on earth, There is no higher WORD or no higher MESSAGE from God to the world above the AUTHORITY and WORDS OF JESUS CHRIST....As it is written in Hebrews 1) God used to do His speaking unto us thru the prophets, but God has spoken unto us in these last days by HIS SON thru whom HE CREATED THE WORLDS.. (BIG DIFFERENCE)....Not Moses, nor John the baptist, not Elijah, nor Mohammed can fit those BIG SHOES, the SHOES OF THE FAR ABOVE ALL JESUS CHRIST Creator of all of heaven and earth.
.......Jesus sits with the Father at His right hand in the glory of the throne of God THE HIGHEST POWER and AUTHORITY of all...Hear Ye Him....Jesus is Lord....If you are listening you can hear the Spirit of the Lord saying to every Christian. It is time to STAND UP STAND UP FOR JESUS....deno.
......The NARROW GATE is not the works of the Law and it is not the works of men. It is the works of Jesus Christ and him crucified and risen from the dead. Few there be that find it Jesus said. The narrow gate is a FOUND GATE. A discovered TRUTH. An ENTRANCE. An Entry Point...A Location. A Finding.
......Jesus said, I am the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE, No person comes to the Father except they go THREW ME. Jesus also said. I am the True Door. By Me men enter. The sheep enter.They go in and out and find pasture.
......Today the masses are disputing this NARROW GATE truth. The disputers are on a slippery slope and in paths that leads to destruction. Even Oprah came out and said. Jesus cannot be the only way to God. The NARROW GATE offends her ideas.
......After three years preaching and demonstrating the glory of God to Israel, we find that only few of the masses that saw and heard Jesus, only a few had really found the NARROW GATE and entered. The majority in their blindness said, Crucify Him Crucify Him.
......What does our heart say to do with Jesus the true NARROW GATE ?.
......If your NARROW GATE idea points you away from Jesus Christ and Him Crucified and Risen from the dead, your walking around in the broad gate that leads to deception and destruction. Jesus Christ and him crucified for our sins punishment and risen from the dead is every believers EVERLASTING HEART BEAT POWER SOURCE. Take this truth out of your heart and replace it with another idea or way and you will suffer a spiritual heart attack.
......Paul said even after being in ministry many decades and years, he said. We preach Jesus Christ and him crucified. This is the power of God and this is the wisdom of God. The world of the blinded call it foolish.....deno.
P.S....The Holy Spirit comes to us and only flows threw the NARROW GATE OPENING, Jesus Christ.
......Without the shedding of blood, the wisdom of God said there is no sin removed. (THAT'S IMPORTANT). In the light of that truth we write this. There exist no blood as sinless and perfect and as redeeming powerful as Christ the Lamb of God that God provided to remove the sin of the world and to reconcile us back to God.. In righteousness Jesus was established, and in saying no to that which defiles he was an immovable Rock. He did not even entertain the thought of sin. Christ was pure as Gods living water, sinless and without spot, wrinkle, or blemish. He was the perfect Lamb for the perfect sacrifice to take away sins forever and leave no need for another sacrifice to ever be made again.
........By the time Jesus came on the scene in the flesh in the land of Israel millions and millions of atoning sacrifices had been made. Day unto day the blood of animals was being being offered up unto God as points of intercessions and atonement's. The accumulated number of those sacrifices over the centuries is astounding. Christ would put an end to all of that forever. By the Sacrifice of Himself, Christ (Immanuel-God with us) was taking the burden of the Law of sacrifices off the back of Israel setting them free. From that great day on Israel unto all the world, we were all to put our hope in Jesus Christ and him crucified and raised from the dead. This new faith would be our righteousness. This new faith would be our justification. The faith of the Son of God crucified and risen from the dead would be the salvation of all them that believed.
.......Sin is always atoned for and dealt with in the bible with a blood sacrifice. ALWAYS...Our good works do not belong in the department of sin cleansing and removal. Our self righteousness does not belong on that sacred Altar, only Christ and him crucified.
........Take your shoes off God said to Moses. You are now on Holy Ground. Take your shoes off, your socks off, and anything else of your self off the altar of Christ Sacrifice Mr., for this ground is even more hallow and more sacred. The blood of the Son, the blood of Immanuel is there and that blood is crying out to the Father.
........To the trusting the voice of HIS BLOOD cries out, "have mercy and pass over them". To the other people called the scornful, the mockers, the unbelievers his blood cries against them saying, "in time avenge Me against my enemies". The power of God follows where the intercession points. For the saving of life or for the destruction of the soul, so the power falls....IN CHRIST WE PLEAD WITH YOU, CHOOSE LIFE that both you and your household may live......deno
.......An act of love or compassion not wrought in the name or faith of Jesus Christ is AntiChrist territory. That is how subtle the beast that is coming is going to be. All the right stuff it seems he will be about, except he exalts his own name and rejects the gospel of Jesus Christ as the word of the Lord...He claims he himself is that word and that One and that love.
......The AntiChrist, His love will allow most everything as to be accepted in human behavior. His repentance is not Gods repentance. His spirit and repentance says, you should be ashamed of yourself for making that person feel guilty for their life styles and behaviors with what you preach. All in the name of tolerance and love. Let them do as they feel so to do. Your bible is wrong.
.......The world will not see thru the subtilty of the cleverness of the deception..They will marvel at the beast and love all he allows, even unto the abominations. He is the spirit that is behind gays saying the love me don't judge me delusion.
.......Because what seems to be good and compassionate is going to be going on in the days of the AntiChrist all in his name, this in part is why Paul said to the church, whatsoever good you do in word or in deed DO ALL OF IT IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST....
.......To the world in the days of the AntiChrist it will seem that pure evil is sweet and loaded up with good. They just cannot see that it is Lucifer conning them and taking them to the abomination of desolation hour.....deno.
.......Lord I lay aside this, and I give this up to spend time with You and to do what is pleasing in Your sight...That is a spiritual road to His presence in you success and intensified....I found this out in England. For so long over there i cut the TV off, did not go to movies or listen to anything but THE WORD of God in preaching, tapes, and music and I would not talk about anything other than the things of Christ as much as possible. This type of devotion and fasting caused me to taste and experience a Joy of His Presence that I did not even know was possible in this life... It was joy unspeakable and full of glory. I was on a high not of this world for years and years over there.
........King David wrote from his own experience that in Gods presence is fulness of Joy and spending time with Him close at His right hand are pleasures this world knows not of...When you taste it, its taste is delicious and divine. Unforgettable.
........It is time to go back and return to that special place of intimate fellowship with the Lord at the right hand of God in the Spirit...Paul said, Set your hearts affections on things above, where Jesus is seated at the Fathers right hand (Colossians 3:1-4)..
........Paul knew for himself of that grace place. Paul knew that when your heart really reaches that higher place of grace, it is fulness of joy and pleasures of the soul incredible.
.........Jesus is a REWARDER of those that DILIGENTLY SEEK HIM...JOY UNSPEAKABLE AND FULL OF GLORY....Sure beat those acid partied and wild shroom trips that i used to mix with...lol...No physical pleasure that we have ever tasted can compare to the taste of the Spirit of the Lord when your heart and soul is really tasting His presence....Just Saying..This light could be the very thing your heart and soul is thirsting for......deno.
