I Am The One

 

I Am The One

John 4:25 “The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.”

Revelation 19:11 “And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.”

     We need no real proof.  We have received His testimony inside us.  His presence in us and around us assures us that He was and is whom He has declared Himself to be.  So we stop searching.  We have found the gold.  No use in overturning another rock.

     For Israel, their eyes are still veiled.  Being lost in Moses, they look back to their history to affirm the mighty acts of God they say are on the horizon.  A mighty Warrior will come someday to rescue them from torture.  Hence, they play the victim card.

Joshua 5:9 “And the Lord said unto Joshua, This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. Wherefore the name of the place is called Gilgal unto this day.”

     In other words, Israel did not have to think of themselves of powerless slaves any longer.  Later, in denying their conqueror found in Jesus, slavery they welcomed again.  Abraham was dedicated to God.  His warring spirit was felt throughout Caanan. Why they have the present Jews hunkered down asking Man’s world to carve out a slice of promised land pie for them?

     When they refuse to acknowledge Jesus as God, they refuse to enter His kingdom which has come.   We as Christians, take up the power as we fight against the flesh, world, and devil.  They turn over and play dead to these things.  Playing war in the physical does not justify their existence.  Their honor on the world’s stage is tarnished by ignorance.

     Does God keep His promises to those who deny His Son?  Yes, it's all on God’s side.  He keeps His word.  Only God has guaranteed a future for them who deny.  They will certainly get their Messiah.  Shock waves will overtake them when they discover it is Jesus.  They will suffer the rapture of the Church and subsequent terror facing Satanic forces here.

     I do not make the rules.  God will gladly accept those already in fellowship with Him.  For those who have already known Jesus as King.  It is no small thing to spit in the face of God.  Israel had four thousand years to get their understanding straight.  Somehow, they overflew the landing strip and kept on going.  Like the lights of prophecy did not burn bright enough for them.

     We have a quandary here.  What is God to do with children who play bastard and seek a parent of their imagination?  God will not tolerate idols, yet He suffers them.  He says, “I am He.”  He is waiting as Father.  We Christians enjoy Him in this relationship already, but they have turned from affection.  How God must hurt.

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...

Cyclosporine

  Cyclosporine      Cyclosporine is an immunosuppressive drug given to keep the body from rejecting a transplanted organ.   In other words, the body knows its own and will fight foreign matter from being grafted in.   As a man with stage four kidney disease, this drug may come in handy.       So how is Christ our cyclosporine?   New must come.   In our natural state, our being fights what is not original.   Upon conversion, His Spirit enters in.   Mysteriously His Spirit intertwines with ours being permanently bonded together forever.   Hence, He is needed as we accept Him as our savior.      Acceptance is a huge thing.   What we allow into our heart, mind, and soul influences our spirit which animates our body.   We are as fortresses, walled cities with wooden gates hung upon steel hinges.   He gives us opportunity to stage keepers at each entrance.   They...

She Doesn't Tell You That You Are A Loser

She Doesn’t Tell You That You Are Loser Grace:  The incredible pink cushion between your screwed up decisions and the ramifications wrought by them. Mercy:  withholds the rod.  Grace says, “Now what?  Given you’ve gotten yourself into a marijuana muddied bowl of slime, would you like a hand up?”  She gets her hands dirty. “That’s ok, its just something I have to work through.”  And she does.  Her incredible prayer power burns a hole through overhanging clouds of gloom. My ears pierce in my usual confronting atmosphere.  An auto E.Q. does its job to focus the vibrations to the rear-view mirror.  Anger aligns my head to look straight into traffic.  Twenty minutes of a sub-woofer gets my energy out of the windshield. “Hey, you’re messing with my woman!”  We have an understanding.  She is to be under my wing.  I have violated before, running in a tangent to the graph.  I’ve learned not to overreact.  I conc...
