DIALOG WITH GOD...(page5)

 

God, in Jeremiah 31:31,
a new covenant, you said you would make.
Would you please explain what you meant
for your children's sake?

THE SEED OF DAVID HAS SPRUNG FORTH,
TO EXECUTE JUSTICE TO THOSE IN HIS COURSE,
THROUGH HIM I SHALL BE KNOWN TO ALL
AND FORGIVE THEIR INIQUITY IF ON ME THEY CALL.

God, would you explain circumcision,
in Jeremiah 9:26?
How does one cut out
the heart as your scripture depicts?

CIRCUMCISION OF THE HEART IS IN NATURE A RENEWAL,
ASKED OF ME IN HONESTY IT WARRANTS MY APPROVAL.
IN JEREMIAH, CHAPTER 9, VERSE 25,
I SAY ALL WILL BE PUNISHED
WHO ARE STILL UNCIRCUMCISED.

God, forgive me, I do not understand;
weren't all the Hebrews circumcised
throughout the land?

THE CIRCUMCISION WHICH I SPEAK
IS PURELY OF THE HEART,
THE CIRCUMCISION OF THE FLESH
DOES NOT PLAY A PART.
THUS I SAY IN 26 OF JEREMIAH 9,
ISRAEL, UNCIRCUMCISED OF HEART
SHALL BE DECLINED.

How can we be circumcised of heart,
God, please explain...

READ JOHN, CHAPTER 3; YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN.

Would you explain, God,
exactly what that means...
And also about baptism;
on your understanding, I lean...

BEING BORN AGAIN IS BEING GIVEN THE GIFT OF GRACE,
BEING NEWLY BAPTIZED IS TO ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR FAITH,
` YOU ARE NOW IN ACCORDANCE WITH YOUR MESSIAH, YOUR SAVIOR,
WHO, IN YOU, HIS EYES HAVE FOUND FAVOR.

God, the name, the Hebrews do not use,
for whatever reason,
that name they refuse.

READ ISAIAH, VERSE 20, CHAPTER 19,
I WILL SEND THEM A SAVIOR, IT SO PROPHESIED,
YOUR DOUBTS ARE ENDLESS, AND TO NO AVAIL,
MY NEW COVENANT WILL ALWAYS PREVAIL.

God, on being born again,
I'm still in the dark.
Would you please elucidate
lest I miss the mark?

IT MEANS ASKING ME TO ABIDE IN YOU,
IN WHOLE, NOT IN PART;
IT MEANS RENEWAL OF THE MIND AND CLEANSING OF THE HEART,
PROCLAIMING YOUR BELIEF AND TRUSTING IN MY MIGHT,
ASKING MY FORGIVENESS FOR YOUR SINS DONE IN MY SIGHT,
BELIEVING THE OLD TESTAMENT AND ITS LITERAL PROPHESY
OF THE TRUTH OF THE SON, SCRIBED IN ISAIAH 53.

God, Proverbs 8:35 says,
He who finds me finds life.
How can we find
what we already have?
Only your answer can suffice.

READ MY SCRIPTURE  IN DANIEL 12, VERSE 2 AND VERSE 13,
READ IT CLOSELY, READ IT WELL, YOU WILL SEE WHAT I MEAN.
ENLIGHTENMENT COMES ONLY IF YOU OPEN UP YOUR EYES,
MY WORD WILL HELP YOU SEE THE TRUTH OF EVERLASTING LIFE.

Your path is hard to follow, God, your children's faith is weak...

I WILL NOT ABANDON YOU, IF IT IS ME YOU SEEK,
TRUST IN ME AND KNOW I LIVE; OPEN UP YOUR MIND,
I AM THERE FOR ALL OF YOU, FOREVER, FOR ALL TIME.

REGARDING BAPTISM, READ 2 KINGS, CHAPTER 5,
"GO WASH IN THE JORDAN," MY WORD IS ALIVE!
I SAY ALSO IN EZEKIEL 36, I'LL SPRINKLE CLEAN WATER
ON YOU AND REMOVE YOUR UNCLEANLINESS.

BAPTISM IS FOR ALL MY CHILDREN, NOT JUST A FEW,
STATES BOTH TESTAMENTS, OLD AND NEW.

God, Maimonides's thirteen articles of faith
stated the resurrection of the dead to be true.
Is this what you mean by everlasting life?
Please, I ask of you.

GO TO THE SCRIPTURES,
FOR IN IT I BRING
THE TRUTH OF RESURRECTION
IN DANIEL 13.

READ THAT VERSE, IN CHAPTER 12, AND KNOW
IN MY TRUTH, MAIMONIDES DWELLED.

HE WROTE THOSE WORDS IN PERFECT FAITH,
HE KNEW MY WORD BY GIFT OF GRACE.

MY SCRIPTURES WILL ONE DAY BE KNOWN TO THE JEW
TO BE ABSOLUTE TRUTH, NO MORE HIDDEN FROM VIEW,
TO THE GENTILE, WHOSE EYES ARE STILL CLOSED,
THE TRUTH OF MY WORD WILL BE EXPOSED.<

God, Maimonides said also in perfect faith
that the words of your prophets are true.
Then why don't all the Jews believe in your prophets, too?

MY CHILD, YOU KNOW THAT ANSWER,
I'VE GIVEN TO ALL FREE WILL,
AND WITH THAT GIFT IMPOSED ON YOU
SOMETIMES MY HEART YOU STILL.
