“This is how we know what Gods love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, ( won’t help them when we’re able ) how can the love of God be in that person?
What appears to be is not always as it appears, or so we see how Jesus was treated, that harmed no one. Sit still and listen, drown out all the noises around you and hear. Do I help this one Father? How, let it go or give. Giving I see to not let that one know it was me that did it, so they will give you the praise and not me, thank you
Some people need to be let go, to find out on their own. Sometimes help can stagnate growth.
Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.”
1 John 3:16-18 NIV
Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.”
1 John 3:16-18 NIV
Actions as Jesus did, each morning went out to pray for his instructions for the day. One day the disciples sought him out that morning, found him, and wanted to go back to where they were yesterday, the people were in marvel over it, wanted a repeat.
Jesus replied, I am going over there, I have my instructions for the day. Do as you know you are lead and not be led by the nose of notoriety of people rejoicing over thee and what you had done or can do. God is not getting all the credit in that, you think?
Jesus said, I do nothing or say nothing without my Father's lead, Amazing Grace we got from his following every word from Dad, Jesus the only perfect Son. Making his Father our Dad as he said this to Mary, Don't touch me, I go to my Father, and your Father now also. Found in John 20
“What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it?
In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead….. As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.”
James 2:14-17, 26 NIV
The ? that stands is who is leading us, the people of the religious Church and we have to do to be seen by them? Or what is God saying to you in that particular instance? As they accused Jesus of all they could accuse him of to make him as a bad person. Over the fact, in truth, they were playing the Judge and accusing him of doing wrong, where he did whatever was right in every situation, not appreciated for healing and raising the dead, why????
"Job Security" The religious leaders then the Pharisees, were not fair you see. Because Jesus by his good works was threatening their jobs, and so they wanted him out of the way. The people were only looking for Jesus whenever they talked to anyone of the parishioners. Then Lazareth raised, then they really plotted to kill Jesus in John this be found
“Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.
But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.”
James 1:21-25
“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
John 8:31-32 KJV
The word, not the world planted in you. The word comes in Spirit and Truth from God the Holy Spirit, not of this world to go out and about to get anything, wrong motives, keep you barren from the new life offered in truth as free to y'all. James speaks of us not getting what we want, and why, having wrong motives. As Jesus said do not sit in Moses's seat, if you do, watch out if that be the only reward you get!
Amazing grace how sweet the sound, so let this save us all, the wretch that I am admitting to, as each makes this choice too for them too in risen Son Jesus for them to be in with Father, the Holy Spirit's lead, thank you
Discerning is only really discerned by God living in us to us in love and mercy from Father and Son to us, that does not always seem as is. God sees there inside, man only sees the outside.
Ex: 12 years ago, I was in the Hospital, with foreigners Gang Greene. I died per the doctors 7 times, in the emergency watch, 2 weeks, spent Christmas there.
I lived and still, live now at twelve years later. I am less than 5% of the people that make it past a year and not have died over it. God is good, all the time as good is God all the time, keeping things all things in Rhyme for me to be and remain content in thanksgiving and praise, even though I know I do not deserve to have been given this gift. I'm thankful
As you are too brother in the living Lord Father and Son as Won for us to be one with them,
Woe again
God did not have to come to earth in Son for us to save us. ??The salvation I find in the risen Son, not the dead one. The dead one I find reconciliation 24/7. therefore I am in Thanksgiving and praise 24/7, since I am in an unredeemed body still
