Act 20:26
Wherefore I take
you to record this day, that I am
pure from the
blood of all men.
Act 20:27
For I have not
shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of
God.
Act 20:28
Take heed therefore
unto yourselves, and to all the
flock, over
the which the Holy
Ghost hath made you overseers,
to feed the
church of God,
which he hath purchased with
his own blood.
Joh 3:15 That whosoever believeth in
him should not perish, but have eternal life. Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in
him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Joh 3:17 For God sent not his Son
into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through
him might be saved.
Heb 8:7 For if that first covenant
had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for
the second. Heb 8:8 For finding fault with them,
he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will
make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house
of Judah: Heb 8:9 Not according to the covenant
that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by
the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they
continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the
Lord. Heb 8:10 For this is the covenant
that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,
saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write
them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they
shall be to me a people: Heb 8:11 And they shall not teach
every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know
the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. Heb 8:12 For I will be merciful to
their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will
I remember no more. Heb 8:13 In that he saith, A new
covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth
and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.
The Reality Of Life Is Death
The first time the
word death appears in scripture is in Gen: chapter 2: verse 17,
But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt
not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou
shalt surely die. Adam did not literally die, a physical death
at that time. Death= 4191; Strong,s concordance: A primitive
root; to die (literally or figuratively); causatively to kill: -
X at all, X crying, (be) dead (body, man, one), (put to, worthy
of) death, destroy (-er), (cause to, be like to, must) die,
kill, necro [-mancer], X must needs, slay, X surely, X very
suddenly, X in [no] wise. The death in which Adam experienced
was a spiritual death. When God created man, ( Adam) he had
everything. He was in the likeness of the image of God. Gen 1:27
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created
he him; male and female created he them. Man was created to be
like God, to live forever throughout eternity. Wouldn't it have
been great if man had left the tree alone and listened to our
Father. Since man being in the image and likness of God, this
means that man, "cannot and will not, die." Man is spiritual;
Joh 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship
him in spirit and in truth. The fleshyAdam can and did. Gen 3:19
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return
unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: dust thou
artart,and unto dust shalt thou return. When God (formed or
made) Adam, not (created,) from the dust of the ground, and
breathed into his nostrils, then and only then did Adam become a
living soul. Then man could die. Man was on the inside of Adam.
Man is spirit wrapped up in dirt, or mud or flesh if you want to
call it that. In which case we will for the sake of argument.Mat
8:21 And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me
first to go and bury my father.
Mat 8:22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead
bury their dead.
Luk 9:59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord,
suffer me first to go and bury my father.
Luk 9:60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but
go thou and preach the kingdom of God. Joh 12:31 Now is the
judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be
cast out.
Joh 12:32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all
men unto me.
Joh 12:35 Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is
the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness
come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not
whither he goeth.
Joh 12:36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may
be the children of light.
These things spake Jesus, and
departed, and did hide himself from them.
Joh 12:37 But though he had done so many miracles before them,
yet they believed not on him: I know sometimes the truth is hard
to understand but we have to put ourselves in God's place. Say
you have FOUR children' which of these four children can you
pick to die and when they do die send them to a hell burning
with fire? How could you pick which one you want to cease to
exist? Is this not nonsense? You know and I know you could not
do it. If you say you can then you are a lier and the truth is
not in you.
And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto
meG1670 Joh 21:6 And he said unto them, Cast the net on the
right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore,
and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of
fishes. e????´?, e?´???helkuo¯ helko¯hel-koo'-o, hel'-koProbably
akin to G138; to drag (literally or figuratively): - draw.
Compare G1667.
Now if you look in Strongs concordance you will see that these
two words DRAW are the very same word.e????´?, e?´???helkuo¯
helko¯hel-koo'-o, hel'-koProbably akin to G138; to drag
(literally or figuratively): - draw. Compare G1667.
They mean to drag. Brothers and sisters we have a FATHER that
loves us to much to send us to a hell burning fire or for us to
cease to exist. Our FATHER is graceful and full of mercy. We
couldn't do it and neither will HE.GOD is pure and perfect
LOVE.What is the good news about going to hell. Jesus told the
deciples to preach the gospel of the Kingdom, the good news, not
the bad. This is what He told Jonah.
Jon 4:10 Then said the LORD, Thou hast had pity on the gourd,
for the which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow;
which came up in a night, and perished in a night;
Jon 4:11 And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city,
wherein are more than sixscore thousand persons that cannot
discern between their right hand and their left hand; and also
much cattle? Sixscore thousand= 120'000 persons.
Jonah had about the same perspective as some of us have toward
each other, it's allright if we go to Heaven but we could care
less about any one else. The plain truth of the matter is we
don;t won't them there. GOD could not destroy them because they
could not descern there right hand from the left. Is HE going to
destroy us because if the truth was known we can,t either. .
Act's 7:50 Hath not my hands made all things. If I am not
mistaken that means He made us, you and me, He's going to kill
us and destroy us or anyone He made I don't think so; We need to
read the scriptures and study Meditate and Pray to our FATHER
and ask Him for the truth and understanding. And HE will answer
your prayer. The reality of this whole situation is CHRIST IN US
THE HOPE OF GLORY. So THE REALITY OF
LIFE IS DEATH. When we die,
or I like to say, like the Apostle Paul say's when we
sleep. We
are actually beginning our new life with the FATHER. Praise His
wonderful name.. In the 6th book of Origen chapter 7, he
talks about " The Doctrine of Transcorporation".This is when the
Spirit becomes human or chooses to enter the womb of a woman and
be born in human flesh, thus dieing to the spiritual realm.
Christ says to Nicodemus; Joh 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto
him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born
again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. In the first book of
the Bible it says:
Gen 3:19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till
thou return unto the
ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and
unto dust shalt thou return.
" So as we said before GOD created man in His image.
Gen 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of
God created he him,
male and female created he them.
Joh 4:23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true
worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for
the Father seeketh such to worship him.
Joh 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship
him in spirit and in truth. So the truth of the matter is,
" THE REALITY OF LIFE IS DEATH " when
we are born again we are
born back into the spirit, back to what we were in the
beginning" SPIRIT ". We have to die or go to sleep before
we can be be born of the spirit. The body was made for the
spirit, not the spirit for the body.
1Co 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the
Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
1Co 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the
Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not
your own?
1Co 6:20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God
in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's Which of
your children is less valuable than you or which do you want
destroyed; . personal Which of your children is less
valuable than you or which do you want destroyed; . personally I
would die for mine; "Oh!! that's right HE did: didn't HE. When
the fleshly Jesus died on the cross He was born back into the
spirit. He had to die physically, are we better than our LORD ?
NO ,I don't think so. So the truth is we have to die to
live.
Let everyone say amen; Let all praise and glory.

Joh 1:6 There was a
man sent from God, whose name was John. Joh 1:7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the
Light, that all men through him might believe. Joh 1:8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of
that Light. Joh 1:9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that
cometh into the world. Joh 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and
the world knew him not. Joh 1:11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. Joh 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to
become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Joh 1:13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the
flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. Joh 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and
we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the
Father,) full of grace and truth. And also to fulfill the word
of GOD.
Col 1:26 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from
generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: Col 1:27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the
glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in
you, the hope of glory: Col 1:28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every
man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in
Christ Jesus: Col 1:29 Whereunto I also labour,
striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.
All Praise And Glory to the FATHER
Php 1:19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through
your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, Php 1:20 According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that
in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as
always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body,
whether it be by life, or by death. Php 1:21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. Php 1:22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my
labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not. Php 1:23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to
depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:
