2 Peter 2:9-10a "The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished: But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled: ..." James|2:8-9 If you fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, you do well: But if you have respect to persons, you commit sin, and are convicted of the law as transgressors. Galatians|2:16-18 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid. For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor. Galatians 5:11-14 And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased. I would they were even cut off which trouble you. For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. >Insted of huffing and puffing about what "they over there" do or did and how incorrect >they are... What do you think they say about you? Do you think that they don't sit and huff and puff about you? Sounds like common ground, The flesh. Every one has it. Where are the Christians? What did Jesus huff and puff about? Nothing. He wasEATEN UP with the Play Acting in the synagogue. He didn't waste time huffing and puffing. He spoke his peace and turned to help people in need. He wasnt going to waste time and become like unto them. He did not stop doing good. >Father we praise your Holy name. Blessed be the God of Israel, you are Holy. Thank you for your word and the Living Messiah Jesus. Lord, honour your name among your people. Thank you for the liberty we have in your service, for your name's sake. In Jesus' Holy name Amen. 2 Corinthians 3:14-17 But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same veil untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which veil is done away in Christ. But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the veil is upon their heart. Nevertheless when (their heart) shall turn to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away. Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. |
