For God So Loved The World

 

For God So Loved The World

     For God so loved the world…that He gave us inheritance.

     Tell us Moses, what is clean and unclean?  How do we stand before a God you describe?  Is there a remedy for situation we are stuck in?

     If I lift up my pride as a Gentile, full of the Spirit, and walking in all revelation then I have not accomplished much.  I owe it to them who have suffered for bearing the truth.  The Jews?  The Israelites?  How about just the Hebrews as they were known.  Before the target came upon them, they rallied out of Canaan to another promised land down south.  Slavery in a foreign land.  Bearing the weight of oppressive Kings.  Blood amongst the chains.  In grievous agony of boys in the Nile.  A threat so great to crush their Godly Spirit.  When revived by the spark of Moses, even that was quickly quenched.

     I owe much to you Abraham.  You took time to listen in a hostile land that forced you to fortify yourself with an army.  Encampments knew your security as you protected those dear to you.  So I am in debt.

     Today I relax in my airconditioned house in central America.  She is about and secure to protect against the elements and those who threaten.  Light shines about the alley.  Clean, cold water is at my disposal.  It is about our celebration of Independence Day.  In this Day we praise those ones who have given their all to remove ourselves from slavery.  Namely, we proclaim freedom from the slavery of ourselves.  Without you and Moses, we may have been delayed in figuring out the real enemy inside.  Thank you brothers.

The Church Picture

  The Church Picture 2 Samiuel 6: 20  “ Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious was the king of Israel to day, who uncovered himself to day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself! 21  And David said unto Michal, It was before the  Lord , which chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the  Lord , over Israel: therefore will I play before the  Lord . 22  And I will yet be more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight: and of the maidservants which thou hast spoken of, of them shall I be had in honour. ” Revelation 4: 10  “ The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, 11  Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive ...

Infectious Disease

  Infectious Disease      I watch network T.V., the free kind over the airwaves.   It is inundated with self-help medicine commercials.   I think of Sky-ri-zee .   Perhaps this is the concoction for clearer skin.   What wouldn’t an Aaronic priest have given for this special med?   “Got a blemish?   Come closer, son.   Looks like the onset of leprosy.   Go away.   Two pills in the mouth and come back in seven.”   Much of Leviticus would have to be rewritten.   The red heifer sacrifice could be summed up with a cream.   “Touched a dead body?   Rub this on the contact area.   Go away.   Come back tomorrow.”      But what if pills don’t work?   Adam would have O.D.’d on the blue and reds seeking to forget the fall. Thankfully the neighborhood drug store was not on his corner.   He heard vaguely of a savior to come.   God said it was in his genes.   ...

God's Successive Revelations

  God’s Successive Revelations Search Me diligently, and I will reveal Myself to you.      Yah, that sound like something God would say.   I understand He revealed the Trinity to us.   I plead ignorance in Church history.   Some theologians, perhaps 400 A.D. came upon this gem that we hold true today.   The idea of the rapture is new on the Church radar.   Late 1800’s?      What if God revealed His truth to His people in time?   Surely, Solomon was the wisest man in his day, but did he know about Pentecost?   Daniel, the far seer, was only shown glimpses.   What did he know of Peter and miracles in the temple?   A certain king discovered God’s truth again and that made for a reformation, but what did he know of the beast standing in the sea?   God gives insight in His time.      I have trained seven children.   As young  children, I did not flood them with...
