[SIZE=10pt]Prov.3[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][5[/SIZE]] Wholeheartedly trust in the LORD (Jesus)
[SIZE=10pt]and do not lean to your own (natural) understanding.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]2 Tim.2[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][7[/SIZE]] Consider what I (the anointed Paul) say
[SIZE=10pt]and the LORD (Jesus) give you (his sheep) understanding (enlightenment) in all matters and teachings.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Prov.13[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][20[/SIZE]] He who walks with wise men (who are enlightened by Jesus, like the Apostles) shall become wise
[SIZE=10pt]but the companion of fools (who are not sent) shall be destroyed. (in Spirit and in mind and body)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Prov.1[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][7[/SIZE]] The fear of (respect for) the LORD (Jesus who is always with his Father, the Highest)
[SIZE=10pt]is the beginning of (a disciple’s) knowledge (about matters from GOD)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]but fools despise wisdom and instruction.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Pss.18[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][26[/SIZE]]….. With the forward/ stubborn you (Jesus the Savior)
[SIZE=10pt]will show yourself to be forward[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] (stubborn/ reluctant)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]If Jesus seems reluctant to help you, then become respectful and obedient and get baptized correctly.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus and GOD our Father, count obedience to Jesus as love, and the Father also get engaged.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]David was a respectful and early insider:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Pss.110[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][1[/SIZE]] The LORD (# 1) the Highest/ the Father) said to (# 2) my Lord (Jesus, the God of Israel)
[SIZE=10pt]Sit at my right hand until I (the GOD of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob) make your enemies your footstool.
[2[/SIZE]] The LORD (the Father) shall send the rod of your strength out of Zion (the Apostles)
[SIZE=10pt]Rule (Jesus), in the midst of your (Israelite and then Gentile) enemies.
[3[/SIZE]] Your people (your Apostles and converts) shall be willing (to obey you)
[SIZE=10pt]in the day of your power[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt], (that started around 30 A.D. as the Head of the Church and King of Kings….)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]in the beauties of holiness, from the womb of the morning, you have the dew (freshness) of your youth.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus is the GOD appointed Judge, to whom every man (Israelite or Gentile)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]must give an account of his involvements?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Who was Jesus, before his incarnation, to Israel?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]What might surprise many Gentiles is that many Jews understand who Jesus is.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]They do not confess him.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Supporting Jesus and his Kingdom is not in their horizon at the moment.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]A person who cannot confidently answer this identification question correctly,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]without the slightest degree of doubt, can be easily swayed into error[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and can be convinced that the truth is error.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Holy Spirit reveals this fact into the mind of a Christian in no uncertain terms.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Someone can be told but will that person have steadfast, lifelong, understanding and confidence?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]That is where GOD’s invisible work through Baptism, calling on Jesus,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt] seals the faith in the now happy individual.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The light or darkness in people, is the reason why the children of darkness persecute and kill[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]the children of light and then come into condemnation PLUS, by Jesus, the Judge.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus was innocently killed because, his premeditated killers,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]were in darkness[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] about his identity. (Luke.22: 52-53 below)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Luke.22[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][52[/SIZE]] Then Jesus said to the (Israelite/ Jewish) Chief Priests and captains of the Temple,
[SIZE=10pt]and the Elders,(who are antichrist and teachers of antichrist materials to this day)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]who came to him:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Have you come out (against me), with swords and staves like against a thief?
[53[/SIZE]] When I was daily in the Temple with you, you did not stretch forth any hands against me:
[SIZE=10pt]but this is your hour, (your moment), and the power of darkness (of ignorance in you).[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]John.16[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][2[/SIZE]] They (the Israelites/Jews) shall put you (Children of the Highest) out of the Synagogues
[SIZE=10pt]Yes, the time comes, that whoever kills you will think (with a mind in darkness)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]that he does service for GOD.
[3[/SIZE]] They (the Israelites/ Jews) will do these things to you (the children of the Prophets = Christians)
[SIZE=10pt]because they have not known the Father (#1; the Highest) nor me (# 2; their own Temple God)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Christians were taught to verify all things, even Teachings from GOD, by using unbiased, careful examination.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Good words and deeds were kept and bad words and deeds were discarded.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]GOD revealed to Peter who Jesus was, but do Gentiles understand what Peter confessed?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Every single Christian, from the greatest to the smallest, must possess the same Testimony.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Matt.16[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][13[/SIZE]] When Jesus came into the coasts/ border of Caesarea Philippi,
[SIZE=10pt]he asked his disciples (Apostles) saying:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Whom do men (the Israelites) say that I the Son of Man am?
[14[/SIZE]] They replied:
[SIZE=10pt]Some say that you are John the Baptist.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Some (Israelites) say that you are Elias. (Elijah)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Other Israelites say that you are Jeremiah or one of the (other rejected Israelite) Prophets.
[15[/SIZE]] He asked them (his chosen Apostles):
[SIZE=10pt]But who do you (my chosen Apostles) say that I am?
[16[/SIZE]] Simon Peter answered and said:
[SIZE=10pt]You are (1) the Christ.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]You are (2) the Son of the Living GOD.
[17[/SIZE]] Jesus answered and said to him:
[SIZE=10pt]You are blessed (acknowledged and honored by GOD), Simon Barjona.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Flesh and blood, (human Israelite), has not revealed the truth to you[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]but my Father (the GOD of Truth, the Spirit)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]who is in heaven (and simultaneously on the earth, among people, by his Spirit)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]What did Peter mean by:”You are Christ?”[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Christ meant GOD’s anointed and also the admirable Son of David and Son of GOD[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]whom GOD had promised to him. (1Chr.17:11-14)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]1Chr.17[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][11[/SIZE]] It shall come to pass,
[SIZE=10pt]when your days are expired so that you (David) must go to be with your fathers (the Prophets) [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]that after you I[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] (promise that, I) will raise up your seed,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]who shall be of your sons and I will establish his kingdom.
[12[/SIZE]] He shall build me a house (a family of children), and I will establish his throne forever.
[13] I (the Highest) will be his (direct) Father
[SIZE=10pt]and he shall be my[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] (ONLY begotten) son (from heaven)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and I will not take my mercy (goodness) away from him like I took it from Saul[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]who was before (predecessor to) you.
[14[/SIZE]] But I will settle him in my household/ family and in my kingdom (Priesthood) forever
[SIZE=10pt]and his throne (of grace) shall be established for evermore.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]What did Peter mean by: “You are the Son of the Living GOD?”[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Living GOD is the One who said to Moses: I am = I am the Living GOD.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]This same GOD would be known to all generations of Israelites and Christians until today, as:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]the GOD of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob = the Highest GOD= the Most High GOD.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Some Israelites knew that GOD had a Son.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]They knew about the existence of BOTH and that they BOTH worked together,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]since the start of the creation.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Prov.30[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][2[/SIZE]] Surely I am more brutish (beastly) than any other man
[SIZE=10pt]I do not have the understanding of a (real) man.
[3[/SIZE]] I have not learnt wisdom nor do I have the knowledge of the holy (the uncommon matters)
[4] Who has ascended up into heaven or descended?
[SIZE=10pt]Who has gathered the wind in his fists (hands)?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Who has bound the waters (of the ocean) in a garment?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Who has established all of the ends of the earth?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]If you can then tell me:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]What is his (GOD’s) name and what is his son's name? (TWO)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Christian Israelite’s or Christian Gentile’s Testimony[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]is based on knowing who Jesus was, before his incarnation, relative to the nation of Israel.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]That basic point allows faith in him.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Christians knew him and it was the foundation of their confidence in Jesus.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]It is written, by Paul that the Corinthians knew:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]! Cor.1[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][4[/SIZE]] I always thank my GOD, on your behalf, for the grace of/ from GOD (and Christ)
[SIZE=10pt]that is given to you (converts) by Jesus Christ (after correct baptism)
[5[/SIZE]] so that you are enriched in everything by Jesus, in all utterance (speaking) and in all knowledge.
[6] precisely since the Testimony of Christ was confirmed in you.
[SIZE=10pt]2 Tim.1[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][8[/SIZE]] Therefore do not be ashamed of the Testimony of our LORD, nor of me (Paul) his prisoner:
[SIZE=10pt]but be partaker of the afflictions of the Gospel according to (Jesus =) the Power of God.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Rev.12[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][17[/SIZE]] The dragon (enemy of the Christians) was wroth with the woman (the Apostles = Zion)
[SIZE=10pt]and went to make war with the remnant (few) of her seed (the Christians)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]who keep the commandments of GOD (as taught by Christ and the Apostles)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and who have the Testimony of Jesus Christ.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Spirit filled and Spirit taught and Spirit led Apostle Paul,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]disclosed that a person needs the Spirit of GOD to reveal Jesus to him or her.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]1 Cor.12[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][1[/SIZE]] Now brothers concerning (the importance of) spiritual gifts (through the Spirit)
[SIZE=10pt]I would not have you to be ignorant (in darkness)
[2[/SIZE]] You know that you were Gentiles (unlearned about the God of Israel),
[SIZE=10pt]who were carried away to these dumb (useless) idols even like you were led.
[3[/SIZE]] Therefore I give you (wise counsel) to understand:
[SIZE=10pt]that no man (Israelite), who is speaking by the Spirit of GOD,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]calls (the beloved Son) Jesus, accursed (by his Father)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and that no man (Israelite or Gentile) can say (can Testify under oath)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]that Jesus is the LORD, (the God of Israel), but by (revelation through the) the Holy Ghost.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Now a refresher for us today:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]When Jesus came on the scene the Traditions were wrong.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We must examine our Traditions for errors.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The superb Son of GOD, who is given to us by GOD as a gift, was predicted by Isaiah:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Isa.9[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][6[/SIZE]] To us (Christians) a child is born.
[SIZE=10pt]To us (Christians) a (great) son is given (by GOD as a Gift).[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The government (of the Church and over all races) shall be upon his shoulder.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]His name shall be called:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Wonderful,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Counselor (wise teacher),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Mighty God,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The everlasting (throughout our life spiritual) Father,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Prince (Son) of Peace (from the GOD of peace).[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Mighty God[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] was the exclusive God of the nation of Israel, whom GOD had given to them,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]like GOD has now given him to us Christians as a very capable, varied helper PLUS…[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The reader will discover more confidence building details, over time,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]while reading or sharing with others.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Pss.132[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][1[/SIZE]] LORD (Father #1), remember David and all of his afflictions:
[2] how he swore to the LORD (#2, the God of Israel)
[SIZE=10pt]and vowed to the Mighty God of Jacob (= Jesus)
[3[/SIZE]] Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house nor go up into my bed.
[4] I will not give sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids,
[5] Until I find out a place for the LORD (Jesus, the Temple God of Israel),
[SIZE=10pt]a habitation (home) for (Jesus) the Mighty God of Jacob (= Jesus)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Isa.10[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][20[/SIZE]] It shall come to pass in that day, (of the Apostles)
[SIZE=10pt]that the Remnant of Israel (the children of the Prophets = the Apostles and converts)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and such who are escaped of/ from the house of Jacob (= the Jews religion)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]shall no longer stay again upon him (their rulers, the Pharisees etc.) who smote them[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]but they shall stay (in steadfast faith) upon the LORD (Jesus), the Holy One of Israel, in sincerity.
[21[/SIZE]]The remnant (the last few of Israel) shall return (= repent Acts. 2:38)
[SIZE=10pt]even the Remnant of Jacob shall return, to the Mighty God. (Jesus)
[22[/SIZE]] For though your (Isaiah’s) people Israel, are like the sand of the sea,
[SIZE=10pt]yet a Remnant of them shall return (to Jesus, the God of Israel).[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The consumption decreed (by the good GOD,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]shall overflow with righteousness (correctness in 70 A.D.)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jer.32[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][17[/SIZE]] Ah Lord, God (Jesus)! behold,
[SIZE=10pt]you have made the heaven and the earth by your Great Power (Jesus is the power of GOD)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and out stretched arm[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and there is nothing too hard (impossible) for you
[18[/SIZE]] You show loving kindness to thousands
[SIZE=10pt]and you recompense the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]the Great[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] (God), the Mighty God, the LORD of hosts (Jesus), is his name,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Isa.30[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][29[/SIZE]] You (converts) shall have a song,
[SIZE=10pt]like during the night when a Holy Solemnity is kept.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]You shall have gladness of heart like when one goes with a pipe,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]to come into the Mountain of the LORD (the Prophets and Apostles),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]to come (return) to the Mighty One of Israel. (Jesus)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The return of the Remnant of Israel (the Apostles and converts),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]started when Peter preached on Pentecost circa 30 A.D.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]That was about 40 years prior to GOD’s total destruction of Jerusalem, with the Temple, and other contents.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]On that occasion three thousand Israelites immediately baptized,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]calling on Jesus, their God[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt]. (and not Father, Son and Holy Spirit)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Acts.2[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][36[/SIZE]] Therefore let the entire house/ nation of Israel know assuredly,
[SIZE=10pt]that GOD had made that same Jesus, whom you have crucified,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]both LORD (God of Israel) and (now GOD has sent him as the suffering) Christ.
[37[/SIZE]] Now when the Israelites heard this, they were pricked in their hearts
[SIZE=10pt]and they said to Peter and to the rest of the Apostles:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Men and brethren what shall we do? (How do we rectify?)
[38[/SIZE]] Then Peter said to his fellow Israelites:
[SIZE=10pt]Repent (return to God = the incarnated Jesus),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and every one of you, (without exception), be baptized in (into/ calling on)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]the name of Jesus Christ[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] (the God of Israel, the Savior) for the remission of sins[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and you shall receive (from Jesus) the (essential) gift of the Holy Ghost.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The understanding is to call on the LORD Jesus to get his attention and a response.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus does respond, every time, when we call him from under the water.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]No response is gotten otherwise.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Disobedience is considered to be the enemy of Christ and then ultimately the Highest.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The TWO:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Besides the Prophets, David was clearly communicating with TWO and worshipping TWO.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Heb.1[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][8[/SIZE]] He (David) saith to the Son (the exclusive God of the nation of Israel)
[SIZE=10pt]Your throne, O God (#2), is forever and ever.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The scepter (symbol) of you kingdom is a scepter of righteousness (good words and good deeds)
[9[/SIZE]] You (Jesus, the God of Israel) have loved righteousness (good words and good deeds)
[SIZE=10pt]and you (Jesus) have hated iniquity. (evil words and evil deeds)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Therefore GOD (the Highest #1) precisely your GOD (the God of Israel had a GOD and a Father),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]has anointed you with the Oil of happiness (from his Spirit),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]more than your fellows (the Apostles).
[10[/SIZE]] In the beginning LORD (Jesus, the creator),
[SIZE=10pt]you have laid the foundation of the earth and the (7) heavens are the work of your hands.
[11[/SIZE]] The heavens and the earth shall perish but you remain (immortally).
[SIZE=10pt]They all shall wax old like a garment.
[12[/SIZE]] Then you shall fold them up, similar to a vesture and they shall be changed
[SIZE=10pt]but you (Jesus, the Mighty God) are the same, (with freshness of your youth),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and your years shall not fail.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Luke.23[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][33[/SIZE]] When they came to the place,
[SIZE=10pt]that is called Calvary, there they crucified him (#2 their God) and the malefactors,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]one on the right hand and the other on the left.
[34[/SIZE]] Then Jesus (their God #2) said:
[SIZE=10pt]Father (#1) forgive, them for they know not what they do. (the power of ignorance) [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Rev.7.. In heaven:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][9[/SIZE]] After this I (John) beheld and, lo, a great numberless multitude,
[SIZE=10pt]of/ from all nations and kindred and people and tongues,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]stood before the throne (GOD) and before the Lamb (the Mighty God of Israel)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]clothed with white robes and palms in their hands;
[10[/SIZE]] and they cried with a loud voice saying:
[SIZE=10pt]Salvation (preservation) to our GOD (#1) who sits upon the throne[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and to (#2) the Lamb (the Mighty God)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus, at present, sits on the right hand of GOD the Highest, from where he came.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]He has earned a higher recognition, higher dignified status and higher power.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]As Christian starters:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Firstly we are taught confidence in Jesus Christ, the previous God of Israel,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]by whom GOD created all things.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]He holds the universe together and keeps it functioning, by speaking to every part of it.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]He is the Power of GOD.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]He is the Wisdom of GOD.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]In Jesus is stored all of the wisdom and knowledge (light) that we need.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]After baptism he gives us light.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]He is the God who initially created us.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]His Father gave us breath and Spirit.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]At present, according to his Father’s wishes and with his Father,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus makes us through the Spirit of GOD that is in us and the Word of GOD that is in us,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]into, a newly energized, Spiritual, joyful people,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]with a happy life and great present and future hope,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus can fulfill our every want and need.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]His Father ‘can do more than we can think or ask.’[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We obey him and ultimately GOD the Highest, the GOD of Abraham, by obeying their Apostles.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We do not have to figure out what to believe or to obey.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We are told what to believe and what to obey, in the writings of the Apostles.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We read about the predictions to us and the promises that Jesus fulfilled,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]by reading the Prophets, especially Isaiah.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We can verify whether the promises are fulfilled in us and in the Apostles and in Christ.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]After correct baptism, calling on Jesus from under the water, he responds.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]He directly gives the Gift of the Spirit of the Father to us or another brother serves it to us. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We eat the food for our human Spirit that is provided in the Teachings of the Apostles.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We acknowledge BOTH, sitting side by side, and we pray to BOTH separately.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Gift of the Spirit gives us love for BOTH.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Spirit also enables us to fellowship with BOTH Our Father and Our LORD, Jesus Christ.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We are aware that they are with us.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]These things are not a matter of opinion but of personal and individual joyful experience.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We do not take vengeance because GOD, who knows best, takes vengeance for us.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We would like everyone to be saved and be looked after by the fully capable Jesus,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]who is Mighty to save.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]When a Christian reads the O.T. even if ONE is mentioned,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]he/ she is mentally aware that the Father is always with the Son and the Son is always with the Father.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We ask Jesus to supply us with love for everyone and power to do good when we love.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We speak about the manifold, simultaneous, unspeakable grace from GOD and Christ,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]but through Christ, so that many will, understand and be saved.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]***[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Finally, for now, my brothers:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We the earthly children of GOD from all races, must sober-mindedly absorb, the GOD and Jesus,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]originated shock[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt]/ mystery.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus, with his Father, while he was the God of Israel, kept the existence of the Father, confidential.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Paul suffered greatly because he had a GOD given duty,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]to reveal the heavenly originated secret/ mystery of the Father (the Highest)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and the Son (the God of Israel) to a ONE God believing people.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Holy Spirit is needed to convince a person. We get that Gift after correct baptism.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]***[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Eph.6[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][19[/SIZE]] Pray for me (Paul),
[SIZE=10pt]that utterance may be given to me (by Jesus)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]that I may boldly, (unafraid of my countrymen), open my mouth[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]to make known the mystery of, (the secret contained in), the gospel,
[20[/SIZE]] because of which (shocking) secret I am an ambassador (but a prisoner) in bonds
[SIZE=10pt](Pray for me) that I may speak boldly (without fear of death) as I ought to speak[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]during disclosing the (heavenly) mystery/ secret,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt](about GOD and Christ who was the previous ONE God of Israel and now is the Head of the Church)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Today the Gentiles would persecute Paul for speaking the mystery about BOTH.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]How did the Church fall back there?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We do not have to repeat such inhumane, unchristian qualities openly or secretly (the LORD and GOD knows).[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Scriptural admission about the secret is hereunder:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Pss.25[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][14[/SIZE]] The secret of the LORD (Jesus, the God of Israel, that he has a GOD and a Father)
[SIZE=10pt]is with the individuals (like David and the Prophets) who fear/ respect him[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and he (Jesus) will reveal to them his covenant (his Father)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]If Jesus had not revealed this matter to me I would have never guessed such a thing occurred.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]After I pained as to how to share with others, as is our duty when we get a gift.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]I complained to Christ a lot.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We must pick up back the pieces of TRUTH from the GOD of TRUTH.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]A Christian cannot be a liar or Jesus will not deal with him.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]GOD and Christ do not respect men based on social status or their popularity/ honor from other men.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Matt.11[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][25[/SIZE]] At that time Jesus responded and said:
[SIZE=10pt]O Father (the Highest), Lord (owner and ruler) of heaven and earth,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]I thank you because you have hidden these matters,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]from the wise and prudent (in their own eyes)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and you have revealed them to (compliant/ respectful) babes.
[26[/SIZE]] Even so Father: for that is how it seemed good in your (unbiased) sight.
[27] All things (on the earth) are delivered/ given to me (the God of Israel) of/ by my Father (the Most High).
[SIZE=10pt]No (contemporary) man (Israelite, circa 26 - 30 A.D.),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]knows (about) the Son but the Father[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]nor does any (contemporary Israelite) man,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]know about the Father (#1; the Highest), except the Son (#2; the God of the Israelites)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and he to whom the Son (the God of Israel) will reveal him. (BOTH Father and Son has to be revealed)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Graciousness/ accommodatingness of GOD our Father[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and our LORD Jesus Christ to all. Amen.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][5[/SIZE]] Wholeheartedly trust in the LORD (Jesus)
[SIZE=10pt]and do not lean to your own (natural) understanding.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]2 Tim.2[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][7[/SIZE]] Consider what I (the anointed Paul) say
[SIZE=10pt]and the LORD (Jesus) give you (his sheep) understanding (enlightenment) in all matters and teachings.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Prov.13[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][20[/SIZE]] He who walks with wise men (who are enlightened by Jesus, like the Apostles) shall become wise
[SIZE=10pt]but the companion of fools (who are not sent) shall be destroyed. (in Spirit and in mind and body)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Prov.1[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][7[/SIZE]] The fear of (respect for) the LORD (Jesus who is always with his Father, the Highest)
[SIZE=10pt]is the beginning of (a disciple’s) knowledge (about matters from GOD)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]but fools despise wisdom and instruction.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Pss.18[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][26[/SIZE]]….. With the forward/ stubborn you (Jesus the Savior)
[SIZE=10pt]will show yourself to be forward[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] (stubborn/ reluctant)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]If Jesus seems reluctant to help you, then become respectful and obedient and get baptized correctly.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus and GOD our Father, count obedience to Jesus as love, and the Father also get engaged.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]David was a respectful and early insider:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Pss.110[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][1[/SIZE]] The LORD (# 1) the Highest/ the Father) said to (# 2) my Lord (Jesus, the God of Israel)
[SIZE=10pt]Sit at my right hand until I (the GOD of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob) make your enemies your footstool.
[2[/SIZE]] The LORD (the Father) shall send the rod of your strength out of Zion (the Apostles)
[SIZE=10pt]Rule (Jesus), in the midst of your (Israelite and then Gentile) enemies.
[3[/SIZE]] Your people (your Apostles and converts) shall be willing (to obey you)
[SIZE=10pt]in the day of your power[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt], (that started around 30 A.D. as the Head of the Church and King of Kings….)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]in the beauties of holiness, from the womb of the morning, you have the dew (freshness) of your youth.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus is the GOD appointed Judge, to whom every man (Israelite or Gentile)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]must give an account of his involvements?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Who was Jesus, before his incarnation, to Israel?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]What might surprise many Gentiles is that many Jews understand who Jesus is.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]They do not confess him.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Supporting Jesus and his Kingdom is not in their horizon at the moment.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]A person who cannot confidently answer this identification question correctly,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]without the slightest degree of doubt, can be easily swayed into error[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and can be convinced that the truth is error.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Holy Spirit reveals this fact into the mind of a Christian in no uncertain terms.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Someone can be told but will that person have steadfast, lifelong, understanding and confidence?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]That is where GOD’s invisible work through Baptism, calling on Jesus,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt] seals the faith in the now happy individual.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The light or darkness in people, is the reason why the children of darkness persecute and kill[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]the children of light and then come into condemnation PLUS, by Jesus, the Judge.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus was innocently killed because, his premeditated killers,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]were in darkness[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] about his identity. (Luke.22: 52-53 below)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Luke.22[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][52[/SIZE]] Then Jesus said to the (Israelite/ Jewish) Chief Priests and captains of the Temple,
[SIZE=10pt]and the Elders,(who are antichrist and teachers of antichrist materials to this day)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]who came to him:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Have you come out (against me), with swords and staves like against a thief?
[53[/SIZE]] When I was daily in the Temple with you, you did not stretch forth any hands against me:
[SIZE=10pt]but this is your hour, (your moment), and the power of darkness (of ignorance in you).[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]John.16[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][2[/SIZE]] They (the Israelites/Jews) shall put you (Children of the Highest) out of the Synagogues
[SIZE=10pt]Yes, the time comes, that whoever kills you will think (with a mind in darkness)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]that he does service for GOD.
[3[/SIZE]] They (the Israelites/ Jews) will do these things to you (the children of the Prophets = Christians)
[SIZE=10pt]because they have not known the Father (#1; the Highest) nor me (# 2; their own Temple God)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Christians were taught to verify all things, even Teachings from GOD, by using unbiased, careful examination.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Good words and deeds were kept and bad words and deeds were discarded.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]GOD revealed to Peter who Jesus was, but do Gentiles understand what Peter confessed?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Every single Christian, from the greatest to the smallest, must possess the same Testimony.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Matt.16[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][13[/SIZE]] When Jesus came into the coasts/ border of Caesarea Philippi,
[SIZE=10pt]he asked his disciples (Apostles) saying:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Whom do men (the Israelites) say that I the Son of Man am?
[14[/SIZE]] They replied:
[SIZE=10pt]Some say that you are John the Baptist.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Some (Israelites) say that you are Elias. (Elijah)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Other Israelites say that you are Jeremiah or one of the (other rejected Israelite) Prophets.
[15[/SIZE]] He asked them (his chosen Apostles):
[SIZE=10pt]But who do you (my chosen Apostles) say that I am?
[16[/SIZE]] Simon Peter answered and said:
[SIZE=10pt]You are (1) the Christ.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]You are (2) the Son of the Living GOD.
[17[/SIZE]] Jesus answered and said to him:
[SIZE=10pt]You are blessed (acknowledged and honored by GOD), Simon Barjona.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Flesh and blood, (human Israelite), has not revealed the truth to you[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]but my Father (the GOD of Truth, the Spirit)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]who is in heaven (and simultaneously on the earth, among people, by his Spirit)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]What did Peter mean by:”You are Christ?”[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Christ meant GOD’s anointed and also the admirable Son of David and Son of GOD[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]whom GOD had promised to him. (1Chr.17:11-14)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]1Chr.17[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][11[/SIZE]] It shall come to pass,
[SIZE=10pt]when your days are expired so that you (David) must go to be with your fathers (the Prophets) [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]that after you I[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] (promise that, I) will raise up your seed,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]who shall be of your sons and I will establish his kingdom.
[12[/SIZE]] He shall build me a house (a family of children), and I will establish his throne forever.
[13] I (the Highest) will be his (direct) Father
[SIZE=10pt]and he shall be my[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] (ONLY begotten) son (from heaven)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and I will not take my mercy (goodness) away from him like I took it from Saul[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]who was before (predecessor to) you.
[14[/SIZE]] But I will settle him in my household/ family and in my kingdom (Priesthood) forever
[SIZE=10pt]and his throne (of grace) shall be established for evermore.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]What did Peter mean by: “You are the Son of the Living GOD?”[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Living GOD is the One who said to Moses: I am = I am the Living GOD.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]This same GOD would be known to all generations of Israelites and Christians until today, as:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]the GOD of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob = the Highest GOD= the Most High GOD.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Some Israelites knew that GOD had a Son.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]They knew about the existence of BOTH and that they BOTH worked together,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]since the start of the creation.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Prov.30[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][2[/SIZE]] Surely I am more brutish (beastly) than any other man
[SIZE=10pt]I do not have the understanding of a (real) man.
[3[/SIZE]] I have not learnt wisdom nor do I have the knowledge of the holy (the uncommon matters)
[4] Who has ascended up into heaven or descended?
[SIZE=10pt]Who has gathered the wind in his fists (hands)?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Who has bound the waters (of the ocean) in a garment?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Who has established all of the ends of the earth?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]If you can then tell me:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]What is his (GOD’s) name and what is his son's name? (TWO)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Christian Israelite’s or Christian Gentile’s Testimony[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]is based on knowing who Jesus was, before his incarnation, relative to the nation of Israel.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]That basic point allows faith in him.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Christians knew him and it was the foundation of their confidence in Jesus.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]It is written, by Paul that the Corinthians knew:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]! Cor.1[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][4[/SIZE]] I always thank my GOD, on your behalf, for the grace of/ from GOD (and Christ)
[SIZE=10pt]that is given to you (converts) by Jesus Christ (after correct baptism)
[5[/SIZE]] so that you are enriched in everything by Jesus, in all utterance (speaking) and in all knowledge.
[6] precisely since the Testimony of Christ was confirmed in you.
[SIZE=10pt]2 Tim.1[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][8[/SIZE]] Therefore do not be ashamed of the Testimony of our LORD, nor of me (Paul) his prisoner:
[SIZE=10pt]but be partaker of the afflictions of the Gospel according to (Jesus =) the Power of God.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Rev.12[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][17[/SIZE]] The dragon (enemy of the Christians) was wroth with the woman (the Apostles = Zion)
[SIZE=10pt]and went to make war with the remnant (few) of her seed (the Christians)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]who keep the commandments of GOD (as taught by Christ and the Apostles)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and who have the Testimony of Jesus Christ.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Spirit filled and Spirit taught and Spirit led Apostle Paul,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]disclosed that a person needs the Spirit of GOD to reveal Jesus to him or her.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]1 Cor.12[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][1[/SIZE]] Now brothers concerning (the importance of) spiritual gifts (through the Spirit)
[SIZE=10pt]I would not have you to be ignorant (in darkness)
[2[/SIZE]] You know that you were Gentiles (unlearned about the God of Israel),
[SIZE=10pt]who were carried away to these dumb (useless) idols even like you were led.
[3[/SIZE]] Therefore I give you (wise counsel) to understand:
[SIZE=10pt]that no man (Israelite), who is speaking by the Spirit of GOD,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]calls (the beloved Son) Jesus, accursed (by his Father)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and that no man (Israelite or Gentile) can say (can Testify under oath)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]that Jesus is the LORD, (the God of Israel), but by (revelation through the) the Holy Ghost.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Now a refresher for us today:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]When Jesus came on the scene the Traditions were wrong.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We must examine our Traditions for errors.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The superb Son of GOD, who is given to us by GOD as a gift, was predicted by Isaiah:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Isa.9[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][6[/SIZE]] To us (Christians) a child is born.
[SIZE=10pt]To us (Christians) a (great) son is given (by GOD as a Gift).[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The government (of the Church and over all races) shall be upon his shoulder.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]His name shall be called:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Wonderful,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Counselor (wise teacher),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Mighty God,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The everlasting (throughout our life spiritual) Father,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Prince (Son) of Peace (from the GOD of peace).[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Mighty God[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] was the exclusive God of the nation of Israel, whom GOD had given to them,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]like GOD has now given him to us Christians as a very capable, varied helper PLUS…[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The reader will discover more confidence building details, over time,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]while reading or sharing with others.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Pss.132[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][1[/SIZE]] LORD (Father #1), remember David and all of his afflictions:
[2] how he swore to the LORD (#2, the God of Israel)
[SIZE=10pt]and vowed to the Mighty God of Jacob (= Jesus)
[3[/SIZE]] Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house nor go up into my bed.
[4] I will not give sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids,
[5] Until I find out a place for the LORD (Jesus, the Temple God of Israel),
[SIZE=10pt]a habitation (home) for (Jesus) the Mighty God of Jacob (= Jesus)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Isa.10[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][20[/SIZE]] It shall come to pass in that day, (of the Apostles)
[SIZE=10pt]that the Remnant of Israel (the children of the Prophets = the Apostles and converts)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and such who are escaped of/ from the house of Jacob (= the Jews religion)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]shall no longer stay again upon him (their rulers, the Pharisees etc.) who smote them[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]but they shall stay (in steadfast faith) upon the LORD (Jesus), the Holy One of Israel, in sincerity.
[21[/SIZE]]The remnant (the last few of Israel) shall return (= repent Acts. 2:38)
[SIZE=10pt]even the Remnant of Jacob shall return, to the Mighty God. (Jesus)
[22[/SIZE]] For though your (Isaiah’s) people Israel, are like the sand of the sea,
[SIZE=10pt]yet a Remnant of them shall return (to Jesus, the God of Israel).[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The consumption decreed (by the good GOD,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]shall overflow with righteousness (correctness in 70 A.D.)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jer.32[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][17[/SIZE]] Ah Lord, God (Jesus)! behold,
[SIZE=10pt]you have made the heaven and the earth by your Great Power (Jesus is the power of GOD)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and out stretched arm[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and there is nothing too hard (impossible) for you
[18[/SIZE]] You show loving kindness to thousands
[SIZE=10pt]and you recompense the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]the Great[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] (God), the Mighty God, the LORD of hosts (Jesus), is his name,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Isa.30[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][29[/SIZE]] You (converts) shall have a song,
[SIZE=10pt]like during the night when a Holy Solemnity is kept.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]You shall have gladness of heart like when one goes with a pipe,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]to come into the Mountain of the LORD (the Prophets and Apostles),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]to come (return) to the Mighty One of Israel. (Jesus)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The return of the Remnant of Israel (the Apostles and converts),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]started when Peter preached on Pentecost circa 30 A.D.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]That was about 40 years prior to GOD’s total destruction of Jerusalem, with the Temple, and other contents.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]On that occasion three thousand Israelites immediately baptized,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]calling on Jesus, their God[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt]. (and not Father, Son and Holy Spirit)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Acts.2[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][36[/SIZE]] Therefore let the entire house/ nation of Israel know assuredly,
[SIZE=10pt]that GOD had made that same Jesus, whom you have crucified,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]both LORD (God of Israel) and (now GOD has sent him as the suffering) Christ.
[37[/SIZE]] Now when the Israelites heard this, they were pricked in their hearts
[SIZE=10pt]and they said to Peter and to the rest of the Apostles:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Men and brethren what shall we do? (How do we rectify?)
[38[/SIZE]] Then Peter said to his fellow Israelites:
[SIZE=10pt]Repent (return to God = the incarnated Jesus),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and every one of you, (without exception), be baptized in (into/ calling on)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]the name of Jesus Christ[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt] (the God of Israel, the Savior) for the remission of sins[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and you shall receive (from Jesus) the (essential) gift of the Holy Ghost.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The understanding is to call on the LORD Jesus to get his attention and a response.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus does respond, every time, when we call him from under the water.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]No response is gotten otherwise.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Disobedience is considered to be the enemy of Christ and then ultimately the Highest.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The TWO:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Besides the Prophets, David was clearly communicating with TWO and worshipping TWO.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Heb.1[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][8[/SIZE]] He (David) saith to the Son (the exclusive God of the nation of Israel)
[SIZE=10pt]Your throne, O God (#2), is forever and ever.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The scepter (symbol) of you kingdom is a scepter of righteousness (good words and good deeds)
[9[/SIZE]] You (Jesus, the God of Israel) have loved righteousness (good words and good deeds)
[SIZE=10pt]and you (Jesus) have hated iniquity. (evil words and evil deeds)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Therefore GOD (the Highest #1) precisely your GOD (the God of Israel had a GOD and a Father),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]has anointed you with the Oil of happiness (from his Spirit),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]more than your fellows (the Apostles).
[10[/SIZE]] In the beginning LORD (Jesus, the creator),
[SIZE=10pt]you have laid the foundation of the earth and the (7) heavens are the work of your hands.
[11[/SIZE]] The heavens and the earth shall perish but you remain (immortally).
[SIZE=10pt]They all shall wax old like a garment.
[12[/SIZE]] Then you shall fold them up, similar to a vesture and they shall be changed
[SIZE=10pt]but you (Jesus, the Mighty God) are the same, (with freshness of your youth),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and your years shall not fail.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Luke.23[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][33[/SIZE]] When they came to the place,
[SIZE=10pt]that is called Calvary, there they crucified him (#2 their God) and the malefactors,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]one on the right hand and the other on the left.
[34[/SIZE]] Then Jesus (their God #2) said:
[SIZE=10pt]Father (#1) forgive, them for they know not what they do. (the power of ignorance) [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Rev.7.. In heaven:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][9[/SIZE]] After this I (John) beheld and, lo, a great numberless multitude,
[SIZE=10pt]of/ from all nations and kindred and people and tongues,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]stood before the throne (GOD) and before the Lamb (the Mighty God of Israel)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]clothed with white robes and palms in their hands;
[10[/SIZE]] and they cried with a loud voice saying:
[SIZE=10pt]Salvation (preservation) to our GOD (#1) who sits upon the throne[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and to (#2) the Lamb (the Mighty God)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus, at present, sits on the right hand of GOD the Highest, from where he came.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]He has earned a higher recognition, higher dignified status and higher power.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]As Christian starters:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Firstly we are taught confidence in Jesus Christ, the previous God of Israel,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]by whom GOD created all things.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]He holds the universe together and keeps it functioning, by speaking to every part of it.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]He is the Power of GOD.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]He is the Wisdom of GOD.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]In Jesus is stored all of the wisdom and knowledge (light) that we need.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]After baptism he gives us light.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]He is the God who initially created us.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]His Father gave us breath and Spirit.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]At present, according to his Father’s wishes and with his Father,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus makes us through the Spirit of GOD that is in us and the Word of GOD that is in us,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]into, a newly energized, Spiritual, joyful people,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]with a happy life and great present and future hope,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus can fulfill our every want and need.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]His Father ‘can do more than we can think or ask.’[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We obey him and ultimately GOD the Highest, the GOD of Abraham, by obeying their Apostles.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We do not have to figure out what to believe or to obey.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We are told what to believe and what to obey, in the writings of the Apostles.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We read about the predictions to us and the promises that Jesus fulfilled,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]by reading the Prophets, especially Isaiah.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We can verify whether the promises are fulfilled in us and in the Apostles and in Christ.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]After correct baptism, calling on Jesus from under the water, he responds.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]He directly gives the Gift of the Spirit of the Father to us or another brother serves it to us. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We eat the food for our human Spirit that is provided in the Teachings of the Apostles.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We acknowledge BOTH, sitting side by side, and we pray to BOTH separately.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Gift of the Spirit gives us love for BOTH.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Spirit also enables us to fellowship with BOTH Our Father and Our LORD, Jesus Christ.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We are aware that they are with us.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]These things are not a matter of opinion but of personal and individual joyful experience.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We do not take vengeance because GOD, who knows best, takes vengeance for us.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We would like everyone to be saved and be looked after by the fully capable Jesus,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]who is Mighty to save.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]When a Christian reads the O.T. even if ONE is mentioned,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]he/ she is mentally aware that the Father is always with the Son and the Son is always with the Father.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We ask Jesus to supply us with love for everyone and power to do good when we love.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We speak about the manifold, simultaneous, unspeakable grace from GOD and Christ,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]but through Christ, so that many will, understand and be saved.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]***[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Finally, for now, my brothers:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We the earthly children of GOD from all races, must sober-mindedly absorb, the GOD and Jesus,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]originated shock[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt]/ mystery.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Jesus, with his Father, while he was the God of Israel, kept the existence of the Father, confidential.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Paul suffered greatly because he had a GOD given duty,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]to reveal the heavenly originated secret/ mystery of the Father (the Highest)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and the Son (the God of Israel) to a ONE God believing people.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Holy Spirit is needed to convince a person. We get that Gift after correct baptism.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]***[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Eph.6[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][19[/SIZE]] Pray for me (Paul),
[SIZE=10pt]that utterance may be given to me (by Jesus)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]that I may boldly, (unafraid of my countrymen), open my mouth[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]to make known the mystery of, (the secret contained in), the gospel,
[20[/SIZE]] because of which (shocking) secret I am an ambassador (but a prisoner) in bonds
[SIZE=10pt](Pray for me) that I may speak boldly (without fear of death) as I ought to speak[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]during disclosing the (heavenly) mystery/ secret,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt](about GOD and Christ who was the previous ONE God of Israel and now is the Head of the Church)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Today the Gentiles would persecute Paul for speaking the mystery about BOTH.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]How did the Church fall back there?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We do not have to repeat such inhumane, unchristian qualities openly or secretly (the LORD and GOD knows).[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Scriptural admission about the secret is hereunder:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Pss.25[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][14[/SIZE]] The secret of the LORD (Jesus, the God of Israel, that he has a GOD and a Father)
[SIZE=10pt]is with the individuals (like David and the Prophets) who fear/ respect him[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and he (Jesus) will reveal to them his covenant (his Father)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]If Jesus had not revealed this matter to me I would have never guessed such a thing occurred.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]After I pained as to how to share with others, as is our duty when we get a gift.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]I complained to Christ a lot.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]We must pick up back the pieces of TRUTH from the GOD of TRUTH.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]A Christian cannot be a liar or Jesus will not deal with him.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]GOD and Christ do not respect men based on social status or their popularity/ honor from other men.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Matt.11[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt][25[/SIZE]] At that time Jesus responded and said:
[SIZE=10pt]O Father (the Highest), Lord (owner and ruler) of heaven and earth,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]I thank you because you have hidden these matters,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]from the wise and prudent (in their own eyes)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and you have revealed them to (compliant/ respectful) babes.
[26[/SIZE]] Even so Father: for that is how it seemed good in your (unbiased) sight.
[27] All things (on the earth) are delivered/ given to me (the God of Israel) of/ by my Father (the Most High).
[SIZE=10pt]No (contemporary) man (Israelite, circa 26 - 30 A.D.),[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]knows (about) the Son but the Father[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]nor does any (contemporary Israelite) man,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]know about the Father (#1; the Highest), except the Son (#2; the God of the Israelites)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and he to whom the Son (the God of Israel) will reveal him. (BOTH Father and Son has to be revealed)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The Graciousness/ accommodatingness of GOD our Father[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]and our LORD Jesus Christ to all. Amen.[/SIZE]
