IN JESUS NAME.
AMEN
The Father has instructed me to speak to the work of Holy Spirit because there is some confusion about what His purpose is in the earth in the life of the believer and in the life of the sinner.
The Master, that is to say Rabbi, The LORD, Christ Jesus is the teacher.
The servant is not greater than His Master.
So this means that as followers of Christ we ought to follow His Word.
There is much talk about true Christianity and there is only One that makes a Christian a Christian and that is Christ.
There is no Christianity apart from Christ.
You can preach and teach politics, seeker friendly meetings, franchise building, rituals and routines, psychology and corporate tactics and all you will have without Christ is a system still ran and directed by the prince of the power of the air.
The Kingdom of God is Christ led and driven.
The reason that so many professed Christians fall away from Christ is because they question God's unmerited, unconditional love for them.
The reason that so many professed Christians make excuses about why they have failed to walk in love with others is because they don't understand that God The Father was not required by law to save us, but He gave His Son out of the pure undeserved love that He has for us.
The Father is not obligated to us, He loves us.
He gave His Son.
He has done that already.
The part that He is still giving is the chance for men to come to Him.
How is it that people come to the Lord and then get to the place where they are drawn away?
We know that it isn't God who drives them away, that defeats His whole purpose.
It's because they never really had an understanding of God's love for them, they have been failed by priests, preachers, family members and teachers who have taught them that In Christ they remain guilty.What The Father has placed in me to write this week won't be comfy cozy and warm fuzzy, it's truth, and the truth of God's Word is what sets the captive free.
So for those who believe that God's Gospel of Grace is a warm and fuzzy, comfy cozy, seeker friendly word that we who understand Grace only preach to make folks feel good.
You'll enjoy this or maybe you won't, it makes no never mind to me because the gospel will preached.
It will be good news to some and a wake up call for some.
Because the reason Christ came to save us was to give us His goodness.
That is what hope is, that is what faith is, that is what life and light is.
The plan of God for us was to give us a hope and a blessed end.
There are cultures that profess that they believe in suffering and they really don't because if they believed in suffering they wouldn't try everything in their power to educate their children to the highest standard available by sending them to America to obtain degrees that will afford them the ability to relieve some of the suffering that is caused by lacking finances.
You really don't believe in suffering, you really don't because patience is long suffering and haste is not.
Haste gratifies the flesh.
Some believe that they are righteous because they wear less makeup than other women or they cover more of their skin, but babies your righteousness is not measured by God as compared to the next woman, it's measured by God as placed up against His Son.
Self righteousness believes that it is more morally just than America or the white man or more intelligent than the black man or woman.
I'm a woman with a G.E.D and filled with the wisdom of God, a wisdom that will be passed on to my children.
And this wisdom is what will keep my children and cause them to stand in the midst of trouble and overcome suffering, because they will know that Christ suffered for them and that because He did they don't have to.
They won't wallow in depression and live a life of stress, regardless to what is going on in the world around them, they will have hope and faith.
Tomorrow when we look at the entire book of Malachi, all four chapters you will love that even more.We are going to look at who The Father is really speaking of when He speaks of the wicked.
We are going to learn who is really seeking ye first the Kingdom of God and who really has an understanding of Him, and it is that is really in His Will.
Who is really trying to serve God and mammon?
Amen
Share this with your family and friends all around the country, In California, Arizona, New York, Alabama, Florida, Texas, Alaska, Seattle.
The Holy Ghost
He is my teacher and helper and He is yours too if Christ Jesus is LORD of your life.
What did The Lord Jesus Christ say about The Holy Spirit?
What did The Lord say about those who professed to love Him concerning The Holy Spirit?
You want to know this because this is how you are able to give an answer to every man abut the hope that is in you.
Christ is that hope and if you don't have an intimate understanding of His love for you, you have nothing and you will be deceived.
Eve was deceived, but you don't have to be.
This is why it is imperative for all believer's new and old to study God's Word prayerfully all the days of our live.
Jesus said, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our abode with him.
And he who does not love me will not keep my sayings, and the word that you hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.
These things have I spoken while I am still with you.
But the Comforter which is The Holy Ghost, whom The Father will send in my Name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
John 14:23-26
The Spirit of Truth
Remember The LORD said That Holy Spirit would bring all things back to our remembrance whatsoever things Christ has said.
Whatsoever things Christ has said.
Why do we need to remember what He said?
Because He is The New Covenant, it's His blood that signed you out of hell.
Remember Christ Jesus is The Master and the servant is never greater than the Master.
Moses, not greater than The Master.
Elijah, not greater than the Master.
Isaiah, not greater than The Master.
David called Him LORD, not greater that the Master.
Abraham, not greater than the Master.
Peter, not greater than the Master.
Paul, not greater than The Master.
John The Baptist, not greater than The Master and John The Baptist said so himself that he was not worthy to untie his shoelaces.
So now that we have established that Christ is The Master Teacher and Rabbi who speaks as God instructs Him, lets remember that and continue.
Our priorities in order.
The Lord Jesus goes on to teach His disciples that it is important that He go away so that He can send The Counselor, Comforter and Teacher of Truth to lead and guide us.
The Mantle.
The very same Spirit that raised Him from the dead would come and live in us to lead, guide and direct us in the way that we should go.
JESUS IS LORD!
The LORD says,
And when He is come, He will reprove(teach, correct and instruct) the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
Of sin, because they believe not on me.
Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and you see me no more;
Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
John 16:8-11
The translation in the NIV version of John 16:8 says:
That the Holy Spirit will (convict the world of guilt) in regard to sin and righteousness and judgment.
This translation is wrong.
Yes I said it, it's wrong.
The misconception that I run across most about the Holy Spirit is the word conviction.
Conviction in the legal since as accusing of guilt.
The Holy Spirit is not the accuser of the brethren, the adversary is, satan.
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
The Word didn't come from the devil it came from God and it didn't come to show man guilt, it came to save man.
2 Timothy 3:16
Remember we talked about the good works versus the evil works?
Condemnation is an evil work.
The devil comes to make accusations of guilt.
Remember whenever the enemy works evil, God will take it and use it to His advantage.
You have to learn how to be like your Father in heaven.
Just because the apple is bruised you don't throw it away, you cut the bruised part away and work with that apple to make a pie or sauce or juice, but you can take it and produce something good from it.
Amen
The word reprove is where the word conviction comes from and it means to correct, to chasten, to make clear and to bring into the light.
To bring into the light.
Malachi will show that when a man's deeds are good they have no problem bringing them to the light.
That's why some ministry's have no problem showing you exactly where all of their tithes and offerings really go.
The good news of Christ is what brings men out of darkness into God's glorious light.
And the Holy Spirit is who helps us to teach this.
An Evangelist doesn't plant the seed of good news for someone else to come along and dig it up with teaching that is contrary to sound doctrine.
The Bible teaches us,
Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.
Nothing to do with guilt because guilt is condemnation.
Jesus said,
For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world (to convict it of guilt); but that the world through Him might be saved.
John 3:17
Paint John 3:17 on your faces at the football games, put John 3:17 on the t-shirts, bumper stickers and bracelets.
We know John 3:17 is true because Christ came to be made guilty for us, so He couldn't have come to call us guilty.
The Father put the blame on Him.
God loved us so much that it pleased Him to offer His Son as our sacrifice for sins.
He who knew no sin became guilty of sin.
Okay
If Christ Jesus was made guilty for you what does that make you?
Not guilty, Blameless.
Does that mean keep living in sin?
No.
But it means if you don't get it right immediately that you still have an advocate In Christ Jesus who sits at the right hand of God.
It means that when you do sin you don't lie about it, hide it or deny it.
Because you can go to Jesus Christ confess that sin and He who Is faithful and Just will forgive you and cleanse you of all unrighteousness.
1John 1:8,9, 10
But the Word of God has to become first place in our lives.
The truth of Christ.
Where was the conviction of guilt from The Lord to the woman caught in the act of adultery?
John 8:3-11
There was none.
The Lord asked those who accused her of wearing too much makeup, and showing too much cleavage, and who had already convicted her and who were about to carry out a sentence of stoning her to death, which of them was without sin?
Because if there was one who had not been unrighteous in God's eyes in his time upon this earth, he should be the first to cast a stone at her.
We know that their was none because if there had been they could have been one to in the world, we wouldn't have needed Jesus Christ to come and save us that joker could have done it.
Only Jesus The Anointed One could ask that question in confidence, because no one is righteous without Him.
The LORD had forgiven her.
The only reason that we can save a family member, a stranger or anyone else is not because of our own integrity, it's because of Christ's integrity.
The woman was still bowed down in shame and hadn't even noticed that all who were trying to convict her, to show her, her guilt, they had come to recognize their own and walked away.
They had to scram because there was none righteous.
The LORD said to her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?( spoken a word of conviction to show you your guilt)
The woman finally looked up because she had been bowed down so long by her accusers that if it had not been for The Lord she may have stayed down until they crushed her into the dust.
But The Lord asked, Who is it that comes to convict you of guilt or stone you in judgment?
The Lord Jesus wouldn't have needed to ask that question if it was Him who was bringing the guilt.
Christ wants to show you that He is not the accuser, because it is an evil work.
This is how Christ will be able to say to some men, "I never knew you, because you never knew Me, if you made men believe that I and My Spirit are the accuser's who came into the earth to convict the world of guilt, when I came to save the world."
Jesus Christ gives you the power to look straight up into your accusers faces and He will make them your footstool.
The accuser stays under our feet.
The woman looked up and she answered, no man Lord.Remember, Christians need double prayer.
Jesus said to her, Neither do I condemn you, go and sin no more.
What would have been the sin in God's eyes for this woman after she had been forgiven of God?
Would it have been to go and commit adultery again?
or
Would it have been to not believe on the Name of the One who had forgiven her of her sins?
Jesus said,
You have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
But I say unto you, that whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her, hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Matthew 5:27,28
The Lord has brought the integrity of man to his face and shown him that the sin is not merely an outward display of works and what men can see you doing, but it's of the heart.
So regardless of your outward actions it's your heart that God examines, searches and knows.
He is talking about the old covenant.
Christ is The New Covenant.
The Work of The Holy Spirit is not to condemn man but to correct and teach man the reason that Jesus came, what Christ has declared as righteousness and what Christ Jesus has done through His death, burial and resurrection.
The Holy Spirit came to teach that sin is to not believe on the Name of Jesus Christ.
To teach the way of righteousness which is Jesus Christ.
The Way The Truth and The Life
To teach that the prince of this world has already been arrested, charged and is awaiting his sentence to be carried out.
The work of The Holy Spirit is to bring all things back to our remembrance whatsoever Christ has said.
Jesus always said what The Father told Him to say through Holy Spirits counsel and we are to say what Christ has instructed us to say through Holy Spirit's counsel.
Amen
Abide in Him and He abides in us.
Because The anointing which you have received of Him abides in you, and you need not that any man teach you, but as the same anointing teaches you of all things, and is truth and is no lie, and even as it has taught you, you shall abide in Him.
1John 2:27
Herein lies the problem.
Men, great and small refuse to respond to God's correction.
Old men, young men.
No man, no matter how long he has been around his ministry did not exist before Christ.
In the beginning was the Word...
There are a whole lot of people taking a whole lot of things around the world to the nations, but it ain't the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Jesus said, Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.
Matthew 28:20
The Bible says that the man who refuses instruction, correction, reproof, the counsel of the Holy Spirit despises his own soul: but he that heareth reproof gets understanding.
The Lord warns us about rejecting instruction in Proverbs 1:20-33
So print this out and meditate it, get it all down in your soul and bones.
Praise God.
Stick with the Word this week.
The Holy Spirit is teaching.
I pray for you all and I thank God for you all and I want you to know that if Jesus Christ is your LORD, Saviour and Master no man can convict you.
Look up and don't ever stop believing in the One who became guilty for you and who has forgiven you of all of your sins.
If you haven't made Jesus Christ The Lord and Master of your life, you can do that right now.
By saying out loud.
Jesus Christ, I confess my sins and ask that You come and live in my heart and be My Teacher and My LORD.
I thank you for taking the guilt of my sins in your body and cleansing me from all guilt.
I believe that you died for me and paid the debt of sin that was written out to me.
I believe that God The Father has raised you up to sit in heavenly places at His right hand and by Your precious blood I have been redeemed from hell, by your stripes I have been healed and made whole and I am born again.
I am not a sinner I am saved and I have been made a son of God through Christ Jesus.
Well Honey,
If you believe that in your heart you are saved.
God will not take control of your life but He has given the Holy Spirit to you so that you now have the ability to be led in the right direction.
Get into a Bible based non condemning church and begin to renew your mind by the Word of God.
The Lord loves you with a never ending love.
Matthew 13:44,45
This parable means that once they understood what was available they put all things aside and searched out the meaning.
Learn what your salvation means.
LOVE Y'ALL
I could write a book everyday about the love of God.
:) Still doing what The Father told me to do.
