JESUS THE CHRIST MINISTRIES

HUMBLE YOURSELF IN THE SIGHT OF THE LORD AND HE WILL LIFT YOU UP ......JAMES 4:10.....SELAH.

IN 'JESUS' SIGHT!
(not men, women, Religions or other Gods)

There are not a lot of words in this verse but it certainly covers a lot of ground and means a lot not only to us daily but to Almighty God, Jesus the Christ.....Revelation 1:8......click.

Pride makes for the curse of many and most spiritual diseases. But humility is a wonderfilled place to live, yes, humble is the shelter under His/Jesus wings, doctrine, truth....click.

Texas/U.S.A. recently has it's fair share of humbling with hurricane 'Ike' passing through town, a day on the calendar that very few could quickly forget, rather quickly remember. A recent tally reveals a $18 BIL/US humbling.

However there is always a guarantee of a 'lift up' by the hand of the creator after being knocked down (whether that be by humans or mother nature) if we humble ourselves. But as the scripture above states, we must humble ourselves before him Jesus the Christ and he will not accept a false humility paraded before mere men and women. Esau didn't really humble himself before the lord God/Yahweh did he but he sure shed those tears and everyone (bible student) in the world then and now has heard about it too......Hosea 6:1,2, Hebrews 12:16, 17.......click.

We are told forever that if men and women don't humble themselves before God he will have to humble them and this may prove to be a little painful for the pride, the wallet and the flesh, by no means will it be a 'good look'. ....click.

As we all can clearly see as we 'view our televisions daily' it's not a 'good look' across the globe, it may even be timely to cross off the 'super' in the word Superannuation. And what about Lehman Brothers and AIG/U.S.A? The multi-billion dollar Bush (baal) bail-out is also another interesting, humbling episode. O, how the mighty are falling, with trillions of dollars debt waiting for them at ground zero.......Proverbs 8:10-14.

Luke a disciple of Jesus the Christ said this...."Whoever falls on the rock Jesus the Christ will be broken and saved from eternal hell-fire but if the rock Jesus the Christ falls on that woman or man they will be ground to powder/pulp.....ref/Luke 20:18.....Selah.

It is a humbling thing to see and do things the 'Christ's Way' and if we don't what hope have we got, I say naught....click.

Honesty, truth and humility are commanded, it is actually a command for all to take the Christ as their leader, lord and first love. For the ultimate in honesty, truth and humility is from him, his ways and even Him, himself.........God!......click.

He/Jesus gives grace to the humble, he gives power to those who listen and do what he says but for those men and women who say and think they know better he has no alternative than to humble them. And Jesus is an expert at humbling all creatures for he is omniscient, he is the omni-knowledgeable one. Daniel 4:30-33...selah.

Jesus as Preeminent is heaven/domestic bliss in a sin cursed earth.....Amen!
