The Key to all the Parables of Jesus

[marks]

Except what does the bible say about having a form of Godliness but denying the power? And seeking to establish one's own righteousness as opposed to submitting to the righteousness of God?

Why are people so easily deceived and seduced by forms of Godliness and the righteousness of man? Because outwardly it appears much the same as that of God....it's a subtle counterfeit. Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. The bible says the HEART is so DECEITFULLY wicked, who can know it.

The ones seeking to justify themselves are not the ones who acknowledge that the righteousness they have is of the Lord, not of their own, and who have come to realize and know that "in me is no good thing"....but it's those who are seeking to establish their own righteousness who are seeking to justify themselves thereby. I see it all the time in those who don't know the Lord, and that was me too when I was lost. It fools a lot of people but God is not fooled, He discerns that and much more besides. Fallen man badly NEEDS a Saviour for plenty of good reasons. Jesus didn't suffer and die for no reason.

Confirmed in Scripture, as you know,

Galatians 2:20-21 KJV
20) I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
21) I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

Much love!

I'm not seeing what you are referencing here.

Genesis 2:10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it was parted, and became into four heads.

From there it was parted, and became four heads.

Maybe doesn’t makes sense but why
John 19:23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part(sounds like four destinies of every soldier having a part? If there being four destinies?); and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.

"By their fruit you will know them!" It's that simple.
The fertile soil (the heart of an individual that God has prepared), receives the seed (Gospel) and continues to nourish that seed with the Word of God, so that it matures to the point of producing good fruit.

“By their fruit you will know them!”

Whose fruit though? Do we ever consider the fowls and the tares that choke out the Word sown? Do we ever consider who it is that comes to steal the seed sown before it has time to take root, before it has time to grow up in strength and maturity, before it has time increase or multiply? Could it be the false ministers, ministers of satan, claiming to be Light, men speaking falsehood, men stealing and consuming and devouring up the words (seed)sown and distributed abroad? Which does the parable speak against as not bearing fruit? The heart or those against the heart? Is it those who do not sow sparingly “as a matter of bounty and not covetousness” “God is able to make abound, having all sufficiency in Him” “as it is written he dispersed abroad” “now to Him who misters the bread, for your food, and multiply your seed sown, increase the fruits of your righteousness” “FOR your liberal distribution to them, and unto all men” “Thanks to God for this unspeakable gift.”

We focus on the types of heart. But neglect the ones not bearing fruit are the ones coming to devour Life sown “bountifully”
that one may go from infancy in Christ to mature in the body, and able to bear. We neglect those who steal and catch the words of Life away from another, tares sprouting up alongside with the wheat that the cares of this Life, pleasing those men choke the seed sown out. Putting where the seed has been sown “bountifully”
under men’s heavy burden instead of helping those choking and drowning by the cares of this world and pleasing men. the ministry of the saints is to work with God on the cultivation of the ground (heart) which he is able, and help to nurture and prepare and build up good things able to hear and receive the words of Life distributed by many upon all hearts. Not against it. Tearing it down, which is the fowls and the devil coming to devour it. What works against it is not the ground but those who do not want it to be tended to, not want it to be broken apart, the ground cultivated, the heart prepared, men who do not want infants in Christ to be weaned from the milk which brings them to Christ having their own teeth to chew and digest the Words sown. The ministering of bearing fruit is sown upon all the grounds(no seed wasted) …to me the condemnation is Jesus was warning that building up the body in Christ…that there would be those who took away the seed and neglected the heart. Look at what consumes, steals away seed? Eating up the words of Life, stealing away the words of Christ, tares coming up alongside In doing so…it (this taking away the seed which is Christ) is what bears no fruit. Jesus Christ asked His Disciples. Mark 8:17-21 And when Jesus knew it, he said unto them, Why reason you, because you have no bread? perceive you not yet, neither understand? have you your heart yet hardened? [18] Having eyes, see you not? and having ears, hear you not? and do you not remember? [19] When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve. [20] And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took you up? And they said, Seven. [21] And he said unto them, How is it that you do not understand?

Christ didn’t judge them by “have you your heart yet hardened?” To me He stayed with them and bountifully sowed the seed of the Word of God regardless that their heart was yet hardened. Growing them. Enduring with patience the hardness of heart. It was all the rest in the parable I think Jesus Christ knew would come to try to consume and eat up the words that it bear no fruit…but He told them it was the Fathers will that they bear fruit. Those not wanting the ground yet hardened to receive seed are the ones that bear no fruit. Christ did bear fruit regardless of those who worked against that fruit.

Paraphrasing what it means to me.

Much people were gathered out of every city.
Jesus Christ sowed the seed, giving and distributing liberally to the poor; that all may come to hear the Words He spoke. The words Christ speaks to the many gathered to hear, the words He speaks they are Spirit, they are Life.

Much people gathered.

Some of the Words of Christ, the Words of Life, the Spirit …fell by the wayside …and the truth was trodden down by men. Fowls come and consume away the words of Life …speaking falsehood that the Words spoken are death and not Life. The way unto Life prevented, standing in the way. As the man left by the roadside stripped of his clothing and left half-dead…they pass by and leave that man by the roadside half-dead. A man overcome by thieves (to consume Life)he is…stripped of the words of Life. Who does the will of God upon the man fallen among thieves who came to steal and leave this man half-dead? Who Tends to him, pouring oil into his wounds, puts him on his own beast and carry’s him back to the inn for keep sake?

Some of the words of Christ, Life, Strength to endure “given liberally that they may endure, being made strong in Him” falls upon hardened ground …they hear the words of Life but as quickly as the seed gives sprout of tender growth… a tender shoot not having root, that they may endure …men come and steal what was planted, no one waters it, so that it withers and dies. (Like a Pharisee no concern for it to ever flourish from a small sprout to endurance.) no care that the root goes deep that there be no increase or multiply of seed.

Some words of Christ, the Spirit, Life. Falls onto thorns …and tares pop up alongside them, along side the good seeds sown; men who come alongside the truth sown and then choke them, seed, (their brothers to death) under the weight of heavy burdens (binding the word and putting it into chains) of pleasing men (whispering falsehoods another form of seed planted in the ear) and not God. Tares they are, hating the words of Life sown instead wanting men to be subjected to them and their rule.

Revelation 3:2-3 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God. [3] Remember therefore how you have received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore you will not watch, I will come on you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon thee.

Peter..Peter, Peter…

Do you love Me?
Yes Lord?
Feed My Lambs. Strengthen your brothers.

(Like a Pharisee no concern for it to ever flourish from a small sprout to endurance.) no care that the root goes deep that there be no increase or multiply of seed.

Endures for a season but when persecutions come…having no root, no water…it withers. Luke 6:8-11 But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth. [9] Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it ? [10] And looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other. [11] And they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.

That my sister IS and WAS THE RIGHT QUESTION .
What does the bible say about having a FORM of godliness but DENYING the POWER .
Do you see a very religoin that does this . I SURE DO .
They can preach some of the good works , appear to have a form of godliness
BUT THEY SURE DO DENY THE POWER of IT .
What is the POWER .
FOR i am not ashamed of the gospel of GOD , for it is the POWER
THEY DENY THE DIRE NEED TO BELIEVE ON CHRIST . THUS THEY DENY THE VERY POWER
and yet that do have a form of godliness . I mean they do preach do some good works and etc .
BUT THEY DENY THE POWER OF GOD . JESUS CHRIST , THE RISEN SAVOIR . MAN SURE DOES NEED a savoir .
YOU SPOT ON RIGHT . But most deny THAT SAVOIR and say , ALAS we can BUILD and make our way to GOD .
THEY DENY the power of GOD , the DIRE NEED TO BELEIVE ON CHRIST . THUS , The Power of GOD
the CHRIST of GOD , WILL DENY ALL WHO DID SO . Budda could not save himself .
Muhammed could not save himself , the many gods of hinudism cannot save . Man cannot save himself .
BUT JESUS CAN . TIME to preach THE LORD WHO SAVES and the dire reminders THAT ONE MUST BELIEVE ON HIM .

Much love!

For i am not ashamed of the gospel , for it is the POWER OF GOD .
Look around , for many might have a form of godliness , an outward form of rigtheousness
BUT HEY , THEY DENY CHRIST JESUS . THEY HAVE DENIED the power of GOD .
As for the lambs , WE GONNA POINT TO CHRIST ALONE and to Christ alone shall we point .

Producing fruit.

The first thing we have to remember, is for anyone to produce fruit. they must be attached to the vine..

the Vine of course is Christ.

If your not baptized into Christ. You can not produce real fruit. you may be able to produce spoiled or unusable fruit.. but you will not produce fruit worthy of God.

 

[Behold]

“By their fruit you will know them!”

The Devil knows that verse.

This is why His "ministers" "fake Fruit", like this..

2 Corinthians 11:15

""""""It is not surprising, then, if Satan's servants (ministers) also masquerade as = servants of righteousness""""


Notice the KEY.

They pretend to be "all about RIGHTEOUSNESS".....to "SERVE IT"..... they talk about it, they quote verses....but all they teach is how to do it, vs, how to BECOME IT..

See, the Born again are "Made Righteous" ...""without the deeds of the LAW or WORKS."""

So, the Devil's "righteousness" theology is..>YOU do it....You earn it....you you you, perform, perform, perform.... as its all about YOU trying to be righteous, based on YOUR SELF EFFORT.

That's the Gospel of Works., and that is not The Gospel of the GRACE of God.

Listen,
a real Minister will teach you that its GOD's Righteousness that is Imputed, is charged, is GIVEN to the BELIEVER< ..which is how GOD makes you righteous.

= "The GIFT of Righteousness".

Having BECOME, as born again...> "THE.... Righteousness .... OF GOD....In Christ". "made righteous". by God, through the Blood and Death of Jesus.

Tell that to pope francis and oprah wimphrey and tons and scores of others who are trying to sell us on the lie
that one does not have to BELIEVE ON THE CHRIST OF GOD .
I hate to sound like stuttering sylverster , bu , bu bu bu , but THEY LYING TO THE FOLKZ .
Repeat after me , ANY LOVE that omits the TRUTH that one must TRULY BELIEVE , HAVE FAITH IN CHRIST
BELIEVE that JESUS IS THE CHRIST , COMETH OF ANTI CHRIST .
and i sure dont want us to be partakers and co helpers with a religoin of anti christ . Like this sold out all inclusive many path LIE
to GOD dung hole of what they think is a gospel or the love of GOD . IT AINT . ITS A LIE my friend .
A lie and its THE LIE i am gonna expose till time is no more , or till my last breath , SO HELP ME GOD .

Yes.

Ive heard Opra and Obama and many say..........

"there are many Path's to the same God".

"many Paths"..

Such as, be good, do right, endure, try harder, strain to be righteous.... ....or....>"join the TRUE Church, by water baptism"....

However.....Jesus said....."I am THE WAY"..

THE.

THE.

THE ONLY.

John 14:6

Thats ONE.
Not some.
not "many paths" but ONE Narrow GATE, and CHRIST is that WAY.... He is the ONLY Way. The only DOOR of Salvation to God.

Just as Noah was saved by the ark, from the Flood of God's Judgement..
So are the born again delivered from eternal Judgment by the Cross that is the Ark, that is our Salvation.
That's the "WAY" to Heaven and away from Hell., and there is no other.
Believe no Agent of the DEVIL who would tell you that you must earn redemption, = strive to be like Christ, or by any of this SELF EFFORT, you can be accepted by God.

 

[amigo de christo]

You should ask yourself...W.W.O.D. (What would Oprah do?)

Cept i dont follow new age progressive lies . RATHER ask yaself what would JESUS DO .
What did HE and the true apostels teach . As far as oprah , i would not even follow her or heed her teachings at all .

What if the devil speaks through words of death and we are the devourer of the seed planted, sowed bountifully abroad, dispersed of God. What are fowls? What are beast?

Have you ever wondered how Jesus Christ can come upon you as a thief caught unaware? That would be the false light to kill, steal and destroy. Caught unaware. Unprepared. Didn’t He warn of a thief coming? Did he call himself the thief or one would come in His name? “I come that they may have Life” “I come not to destroy men but to save them.” The thief desires no mercy, instead coming to steal and destroy and kill before there is any fruit unto God that saves men. Jesus Christ comes that you bear fruit that remains obedience unto Life. Not sin unto death. That you flourish, and be not caught in sin unto death without fruit unto Life which is in and by Christ whom prepares the battle against the thief. Why speak against fruit that saves which fruit is by Christ…unless hoping there be no fruit to save men. That doesn’t seem to be why Christ come but that there be fruit that saves out from destruction of sin unto death which the thief hopes in. That you be caught not unaware of the devil’s scheme. In the parable there is that trying to fight against the sowing of the seed that the seed be overcome …and those ministering to the seed which saves men out of death: hardness of heart, cares of this life, withering away…

What if the devil speaks through words of death a

There is no "IF" or "maybe" or "could be".... in the verse.

Don’t forget the rain, gotta have some h2o before he foot anything to sprout

I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's gotta be a little rain sometime
When you take you gotta give so live and let live or let go

I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden

I could promise you things like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses growin' on stalks of clover
So you better think it over
Well, if sweet-talkin' you could make it come true
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter
But what would it matter

I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's gotta be a little rain some time

I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden

I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you
I'd just as soon let you go
But there's one thing I want you to know
You better look before you leap, still waters run deep
And there won't always be someone there to pull you out
And you know what I'm talking about

I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's gotta be a little rain sometime
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden

 

[VictoryinJesus]

But what exactly is the word? What is the actual seed that became flesh?

That’s the ‘thing’ that was sown in the soil.

Adam (man) is the soil. What’s the word?

God’s voice? His Spirit? Life? Hard to hear over everything else…drowned out by death and (word) of a curse?

 

[VictoryinJesus]

There is no "IF" or "maybe" or "could be".... in the verse.

This is why His "ministers" "fake Fruit", like this..

2 Corinthians 11:15

""""""It is not surprising, then, if Satan's servants (ministers) also masquerade as = servants of righteousness""""

Problem to me is some call all fruit ..fake fruit…fearful any little fruit might go unnoticed and not get called out as fake fruit …so they rather there be no fruit, at all, to prevent any they deem fake fruit. See. Judges of the fruit.
