Church Age Greetings


Nehemiah 13:1-2 On that day they read in the book of Moses in the audience of thepeople; and therein was found written, that the Ammonite and the Moabite should not come into the congregation of God forever; Because they met not the children of Israel with bread and with water, but hired Balaam against them, that he should curse them: howbeit our God turned the curse into a blessing. Now it came to pass, when they had heard the law, that they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude.

Matthew 5:43-48 You have heard that it was said, "YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? If you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

>This is the Mystery Age of the Church, the body of Christ. Israel is not grafted in again. We are joint heirs with Christ. If we are in fellowship with Christ, we are already sanctified, we do not have to work at that. "We're in." Now, evil company corrupts good morals, so whoever we greet, we have already decided not to leave the company of Christ. Whatever company we are in, it is always right to speak good of His name. The power of God in this age is the Good news of Jesus Christ. Jesus is Lord.
>Lord , thank you for your fellowship, thank you for your forgiveness, you are faithful. Lord, make us a blessing: Remind us and give us grace to greet those people you died to save, Amen.
