Bible
verse............For indeed the Gospel was preached
to us as well as to them....but the Word which they
heard...did not profit them.....not being
mixed....with faith (obedience) in those who heard
it....ref/Hebrews 4:2. |
.................COMMENT FROM THE PASTOR'S
PEN...................... |
One of the first and major
signs that the Gospel of Jesus the Christ has prospered
a person is that they are numbered with those who
despise money and love God-Jesus the Christ first and
foremost...ref/Matthew 6:24, Luke
19:1-10.....Selah......click.
Application is Relaxation....yes, we can
truly relax, rest and be at peace, once we hear,
receive, believe and apply the bonafide Word of God to
our lives. This will bring us into perfect-peace. There
was no relaxation, peace or rest for Adam and Eve in the
garden of Eden once they sinned. All because they were
not applying God's Word to their lives, they were not
taking faith in the Christ-God....ref/Isaiah 26:3,
Genesis 3:8......click.
Sin is not 'Faith in God'
but unbelief of God, who he is and who he says he is. We
can not please God unless we believe he is who he says
he is. Application is relaxation and proves our
dedication to God, if you love me keep my doctrine-Word.
Have faith in God, obey God, apply God's Word to
your life.....ref/Revelation 3:7-13.....click.
Application is Relaxation...we no longer
have to live with a guilty conscience looking over our
shoulder when we apply the Word of God to our lives. For
he- Jesus the Christ keeps in perfect peace those whose
mind is stayed faithfully on the Way of the Lord God
Omniscient. No matter how blue the skies may be, what
the cruise or holiday destination is, there is no rest,
relaxation or peace with sin, unless of course your
conscience is seared with the hot irons of hell or
God has handed you over to the
devil...ref/Romans 1:24-32. |
Application is
Revelation....the application of God's Word in
our lives is proof that we love him and application
also warrants revelation. All the men in the bible
who applied God's Word - Perfect Law of
Liberty or the Doctrine of the Christ as it is
better known to their lives received powerful
revelations. Once we come to realize the truth about
this life, heaven, hell, ourselves, others, God, sin
and the Devil, every day is a Jubilee Day.
St Paul being the leading man who had so much
revelation given to him from God, he needed to be
buffeted by a satanic messenger, as an additional
blessing from God to keep him from the sin of
pride....ref/2 Corinthians 12:7.
Application is also Restoration....Our mind,
will and emotions are not able to be restored to a
Godly standard unless we walk the paths of
Righteousness. King David said that Yahweh restores
his soul-mind, will and emotions. Restore means to
bring back to the original condition, the condition
our mind was in before we were born of a woman.
Remember. Yahweh says that he knew Jeremiah before
he entered the womb of his mum......ref/Jeremiah
1:5.....Selah. |
And he leads him in
the right direction, paths of righteousness, the
only right way. There is only one left and one
right and the right way is God's Way - Jesus the
Christ says....I am the Way! Putting on the mind
of the Christ sure beats thinking like a
degenerated hell-bound human.....ref/Psalm 23:3.
And finally, Non-Application is damnation and
condemnation.....yes,
when a man or woman does not apply the Word of
God to their lives, they are heading for trouble
and hell-fire eternal. We must be doers of the
Doctrine of the Christ and not just hearers
deceiving ourselves. Otherwise the all
powerful Word of God - Jesus the Christ will not
profit us......ref/2 Thessalonians 1:8-10,
Romans 8:1. |
GODLINESS WITH
CONTENTMENT IS GREAT GAIN....REF/1 TIMOTHY 6:6. |
This simply means
that if a person is content with God alone, it
is this one that is put on the list called
'Great Gain'. Great gain will be given to them
for this one single reason, Jesus the Christ is
their preeminent one and they are satisfied with
Jesus, satisfied with him, Jesus alone, Messiah
simply loves this attitude in new creatures.
Their gain will be from heaven itself and of
heaven itself, absolutely heavenly not of this
sin cursed earth but heavenly.
Goodly and perfect, from the heavenly Father
of lights in whom there is no change or
variation of turning. Father-Ancient of Days,
loves those who love/obey 'His Son - Jesus the
Christ'....ref/Revelation 22:12, James 1:17,
John 14:23.....click
