What does faithfulness and love for Jesus look like?

I dont know what a persons faith looks like...

I don't care if they are the most docile person in the world.

If your heart is not right with God. It's just not right with God...

Ha, ha, ha, how silly your reply can be repeatedly, it's absurd and unwise to even think we can be Jesus, and we're not.

Readers,
We're just disciples and servants to His word/teaching in the New Testament, who's word/teaching called us to seek first the Kingdom of GOD and HIS righteousness.

As 'seeking' disciples first the Kingdom of GOD, and HIS righteousness though Jesus, the Son says (teaches);

Matthew 7:
24. Therefore whosoever hears these sayings(teachings) of Mine, and does them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

25. And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

Now on the contrary, MatthewG's gospel version, he hears and 'does them not', because Jesus does them in him, now is that 'tangible' to Jesus' sayings (teachings)?

'Not tangible', because this is what Jesus' sayings (teachings) further about such 'folly' persons who posses a different jesus and spirit;

26. And every one that hears these sayings (teachings) of Mine, and does them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
27. And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

To conclude,
1 John 4:
6. We are of GOD: he that knows GOD hears us; he that is not of GOD hears not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

The bible is a great and helpful tool.

God can only change the heart.

That's all I know.

I know there are people that tell people they must be Jesus... and do all he commandeded otherwise they are failures.


Well, if you try to all he commanded you will fail as well cause he commanded Jewish people to do things, like even going back to the temple to present an offering when a person was healed.

So... Idk, I just know people can not be Jesus...

They can not fulfill everything he did

But you can't be Jesus cause you are not him.

Its not difficult to understand. You didnt come down from God. You were made by God.

When you die, you will see him as he is, and we will have new spiriutal bodies supposeduly.


Unless the bible is just a crock pot and a joke and a laugh and a wizard potion.

even the rich young ruler couldnt do what Jesus was doing...


Lets get real here.


Yes Yeshua will perform the acts which are heavenly and good through you.

you personally can't make them happen except by a choice in abiding in Jesus...

And God works on your mind and herat, and you are lead by the spirit.

Its not always the bible you quote.

Did you catch the meaning of that scripture? We're children practicing now for what we'll be when we grow up.

God knows we're not Jesus now. That isn't the point.

The thread Title is "You can not do all Jesus commanded."

Considering this is true... it stands true. Also when it comes to people saying you "MUST BE JESUS" to everyone.

Like you are not able to cut people out of your life, and let them go and let God deal with them is a totall lie as well...

Your flesh can't do what Jesus commanded cause you never lived in that time and day, you were not Jewish and had to report to the temple.

So... therefore if you are doing all Jesus commanded... great! I am not... I do try to abide in him and let him come through he is the only one that is doing the good...

There so many wanna claim "Im a good man or woman."

You might be, but you are not Jesus..

You can mature in Jesus sure, but you cant become him... cause you already fell short of the Glory of God @Lambano.

I know you dont like hearing much concerning our own failures but Jesus most assuredly has taken care of them and raised Jesus up on the third day in justification of that act being done.

Dont think you or me can do it, we killed him with our sins, but God rose him up again for his payment concerning them....


i dont know if you really care or not though.

Im sorry that none of you are perfect.

You wont never be in this fleshly world you live in.

Perfect does mean to mature, but that is only in completion of the one whom makes you whole.

That comes from the spiritual nurturing of oneself to the Lord Jesus.

The promise is that we WILL be like Him. And until then, we will fall short again and again, but as you mentioned, that is taken care of. Now go practice.

Oh....

That has nothing to do with the thread topic.


Thread topic: "You could never do what Jesus commanded."

Except one thing, and that is to believe on him.


Lets try to stay on topic though.

I just hate to see fear of failure used as an excuse for not trying.

I also have to point out that if someone doesn't have a desire to do what Jesus commanded, do they really believe on Him?

Well you can't point out anything to ambigous, other than you gotta try.

Not by your flesh you do not...

You abide in the spirit, but heck who cares about mentioning those things, they are to harsh!
