And tries to change the way of life a soul lives in flesh after he saves It

With a view to reward the saved soul at Jesus’ Heaven Judgment Seat!

CHANGE NUMBER 1  

Instantaneous Change – From Spiritually Dead to Spiritually Alive Forever in Christ – A Spiritual Resurrection of the Soul in Christ that seals the soul forever.

John 3:6,7 – That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. [7] Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

John 5:24 – Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, HATH everlasting life, and SHALL NOT come into condemnation; but IS PASSED from death unto life.

A person’s soul is saved eternally the instant it repents of its sinful condition and put its faith in Jesus alone to save it.  It is eternally heaven bound totally by grace through faith.  But it still has a life in the flesh to live until its separation from the body of sin in which it finds itself, and it is to let Christ redeem that life for heavenly rewards by submission to his will that lives in the soul.

Galatians 2:20,21 – 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.

The soul has everlasting life by grace through faith the second it trusts in Christ to save it.  It is a spiritual workmanship of God called the new birth.  It is a gift that will never be withdrawn by God.  But God created you eternally by the new birth in Christ Jesus so you could perform good works by submitting to his spirit that indwells the believer.  It was God’s foreordained plan that all believers perform good works by the action of his Son working in them.  The good works are for rewards in heaven, not to help Christ save you.  You cannot perform good works in God’s sight unless they are performed by the leadership of his Son’s Spirit alive in you.

Ephesians 2:8-10 – For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. [10] For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

One doesn’t have to help Christ to save their soul.  He did it once for all, and it did it all by himself.  He alone has the righteousness which is of faith to impute to us.

Romans 10:6-13 – But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) [7] Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) [8] But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; [9] That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. [10] For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. [11] For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. [12] For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. [13] For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

CHANGE NUMBER 2

The Saving of Life’s Heavenly Rewards by the Saved Soul’s Letting the Mind of Christ Function in the Life It Lives in the Flesh After it has been Born Again!

This individual in Luke 8:14 lost the heavenly rewards he could have obtained because he failed to let the seed bring his life to Christian maturity.

Luke 8:11,14 – Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. [14] And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.

Matthew 6:32-34 – (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. [33] But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. [34] Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Luke 17:32,33 – Remember Lot’s wife. [33] Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.

She lost the rewards she could have obtained in heaven because she lost the remainder of the physical life she could have lived to earn them.  She would not forget the things that she loved in Sodom, which were behind her.  She was in a race for safety in Zoar, but she longed for the things she was not willing to leave behind in Sodom, and she lost the physical life she could have lived for rewards.

Genesis 19:26 – But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

Philippians 3:13,14 – Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, [14] I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.  (This is about a race of life for rewards)

The two Scriptures which follow, Luke 9:23-25 and I Corinthians 9:25-27, do not refer to the soul being cast away from salvation, but rather to being cast way from the race of life for rewards.  Many do not follow Christ after he comes to live in them, casting themselves away from heavenly rewards by dropping out of the race for a variety of reasons.  Even Paul was aware he could become cast away from “the” faith that is lived by a person that stays in the race.  Many “fall away” from following Christ because of being tested, as did the man in Luke 8:13.

Luke 9:23-25 – And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. [24] For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it. [25] For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?

I Corinthians 9:25-27 – And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. [26] I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: [27] But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

Luke 8:13 – They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

The following four Scriptures make it abundantly clear that our letting Christ work in us to perform good works will be extremely beneficial forever in heaven, and that we will be judged by Christ as to the degree we let him work his good works in us.

I Corinthians 15:57,58 – But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. [58] Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

Galatians 6:7 – Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

II Corinthians 5:10 – For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

Revelation 22:12 – And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

CHANGE NUMBER 3

The Changing of the Old Man, the Old Nature in the Flesh, at the First Resurrection!

I Corinthians 15:50-52 – Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. [51] Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, [52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

I Corinthians 15:38 – But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.

I Corinthians 15:41,42 – There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory. [42] So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:

I John 3:2 – Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

The rapture will occur on the last trump in a series of seven, and for the first time all the saved of all the ages will stand before Christ’s judgment seat in heaven.  The mystery of Paul in I Corinthians 15:51 will be finished as John indicated in Revelation 10:7.

I Corinthians 15:51 – Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

Revelation 10:7 – But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

Revelation 11:15,18 – And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. [18] And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.

I Thessalonians 4:16-18 –For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: [17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. [18] Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Begin DEBKAfile Exclusive Report

ISIS posts a new forward command group to Egyptian Sinai – at Israel’s back door

December 10, 2014, 12:50 PM (IDT)

A group of at least ten ISIS operations and intelligence officers, led by a senior commander, has arrived in Sinai and taken charge of the local Ansar Beit al-Maqdas jihadis, thereby opening up a dangerous new front against Egypt and Israel, in proximity to the Suez Canal, the Gaza Strip and the West Bank,

DEBKAfile’s exclusive counter-terror sources report.

Their identities are not known, but their relocation from Iraq to the Egyptian peninsula was carefully arranged. They came posing as tourists coming for a holiday at the Sinai resort of Sharm el-Sheikh, arriving on charter flights from Middle East and European locations on fake passports. This enabled them to evade the strict security checks at Cairo international airport.

By assuming command of the local Ansar Beit al-Maqdas terrorist group, which last month pledged allegiance to the Islamic State, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has moved to add Sinai as a new province to the caliphate he established in parts of Iraq and Syria.

In recent weeks, our counter-terror sources reveal, Islamic State tacticians have provided the Sinai outfit in with a strategic reserve by posting 300 combatants from Iraq to eastern Libya. This group also supplies the Egyptian contingent with arms.

Egypt therefore finds itself encircled by IS forces on its western border from Libya and deeply threatened from the northeast in Sinai; whereas Israel faces the same jihadi menace in the southwest from Sinai and in the north from Syria.

On arrival in Sinai, Islamic State commanders announced their movement’s mission had been overhauled and redirected from Egypt alone to the “Egyptian-Zionist alliance.”

One of their first tasks will be to counteract recent Egyptian military successes in broadening their penetration of the peninsula’s Bedouin tribes and so inflicting heavy losses on Ansar Beit al Maqdas.

Israel finds itself outflanked by the new IS deployment in Sinai. The IDF heavily built up its northern strength to meet any Al Qaeda menace from Syria to the Golan, creating the Bashan Division to fight off jihadist incursions. In the event, the IS’s Syrian units have given the Israeli border a wide berth and are focusing on fighting in northern and eastern Syria.

And so, while preparing to tackle Islamist encroachment from the north, Israel finds them cropping up along its southern border, where no comparable military buildup is in place.

Abu Bakr’s Sinai move contradicts the claims of senior US commanders that IS is on the run in Iraq after being badly hurt by US and coalition air strikes. (Last week there were no more than 31 air raids over Iraq and 15 in Syria.) All that the light US-led air campaign has achieved so far is to induce the Islamic State’s leaders to shift ground tactically from territorial expansion to defense and entrenchment.

I do not know the day, week, month, or year Mary gave Birth to Jesus,

But I’m certain I have been eternally passed from death to life by Him

God’s last Adam Seed Quickened My soul to Eternal Life 70 years Ago!

Part 6

November 13, 2014

http://www.tribulationperiod.com/

Christmas Is the Season Associated With Gifts!

God created 1^st Adam to give him a living Soul!

God came as Last Adam with Quickening Spirit!

I Corinthians 15:45,46 – And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. [46] Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.

Satan Corrupted Man’s Nature By Adam’s Disobedience

God Quickly Promised the Seed to Redeem all Believers

Genesis 3:15 – And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

I Peter 1:23 – Being born again, NOT of corruptible SEED, BUT OF INCORRUPTIBLE, by THE WORD of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

There is no question that the incorruptible seed of God, his eternally living word, once transplanted, abides in a believer forever, having forever removed the believer from under the condemnation of God, passing that soul from spiritual death to eternal spiritual life by the seed.  He is still a sinner, but is no longer a condemned sinner because he has been born of God by the incorruptible seed, which remains in him, and God does not impute any sin to him that would again place him under his condemnation for sin.

John 5:24 –Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, HATH everlasting life, and SHALL NOT come into condemnation; but IS PASSED from death unto life.

I John 3:9 – Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his SEED remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

Romans 4:8 – Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

But the seed that eternally quickens and saves the soul, the instant it is received by the believer, immediately begins a lifelong process of conversion of that soul in order to preserve the life it will live in the flesh for the receipt of rewards at Christ’s judgment seat.

Galatians 2:20,21 – 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.   

When the events recorded in Luke 22 occurred, Peter had already been saved, baptized, called out to be a part of the first New Testament church, and had followed the Master for more than three years, but he still needed to have his eternally saved soul converted to worshipping and following God in the right way, and for the proper  reason.  Immediately after salvation, all believers are fair game for Satan.  He cannot “un-save” them, but he can attempt to swallow them whole in worldliness, and sift them in any direction to the whim of the wind as non-connected bits of willowed wheat.

Luke 22:30-34 – And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: [32] But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. [33] And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death. [34] And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

The salvation of the soul eternally takes but an instant, but the conversion of it to a new way of thinking and a new way of life takes the rest of its life lived in the flesh.  If one will endure the anxiety and tribulation associated with the process, it will settle them in THE FAITH once delivered to the saints.

I Peter 5:8-13 – Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: [9] Whom resist stedfast in THE FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. [10] But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.

Jude 3 – Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for THE FAITH which was ONCE delivered unto the saints.

The great work of the incorruptible seed in salvation is its genuine guarantee of eternal life, which is instantly given at the point of belief on Christ’s atoning work as the total, and only, price paid for it

John 10:28-30 – And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. [29] My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. [30] I and my Father are one.

The incorruptible seed also constantly attempts to keep the saved soul in fellowship with God.  The soul remains free from the condemnation of God and goes to heaven by the blood of Christ.  But “conversion” is a process that involves staying in fellowship with God.  The saved soul cannot lose its salvation, but it can, and often does, lose its fellowship with its Savior because of unconfessed sin.  This is a point made by Jesus to his first church in John 13.

John 13:3-10 – Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God; [4] He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself. [5] After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded. [6] Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet? [7] Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. [8] Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. [9] Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. [10] Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, BUT NOT ALL.

All were saved and washed by their faith that Jesus was the Messiah except Judas, who had not placed his faith in Christ to save him from the condemnation of God.  Each soul had been saved and sealed by Jesus himself, eternally cleansed from any sins that could separate it from the love of God that is in Christ.

Romans 8:38,39 – For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, [39] Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

However, Jesus forever established the importance of a saved soul staying in fellowship with the one who saved it by daily confessing its sins, moment by moment.  The humble, the contrite, the broken spirit, will endeavor to stay in fellowship.  The proud and unbroken spirit will refuse to be “converted” to humility, and have periods of un-confessed sins during its saved life.  Jesus taught them by his act that their humility in daily repentance toward God was needed to stay in fellowship.  That is one of the major reasons for staying in church.  Your walk as a faithful member of one of his churches allows his Spirit to cleanse the sins of your daily walk in the dust of a sinful earth

Ephesians 5:26-27 – That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, [27] That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

I Peter 2:5 – Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual SACRIFICES, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

Psalm 51:17 – The SACRIFICES of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

Humility of a saved soul maintains fellowship with God. The saved soul is rewarded in heaven for the degree of its fellowship with Christ after he saved it.

I John 1:9 – If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Luke 18:13,14 – And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. [14] I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

Revelation 3:20-22 – Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. [21] To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. [22] He that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. 

Revelation 3:20-22 is a message calling saved church member’s hearts to remain  in fellowship daily by a life of repentance and faith.  The saved heart cannot lose its salvation, but it can break its fellowship with the Lord.  Your degree of fellowship with Jesus will determine what you wear and where you live in Heaven.

I don’t know the day, week, mouth, or year Jesus came in the Manger,

But I do know he Quickened My Soul and will Keep it Saved Eternally!

Part 5

November 11, 2014

http://www.tribulationperiod.com/

We Must be Saved by the Incorruptible Blood and Flesh of the Man Christ Jesus!  He Alone Must be the Incorruptible Seed Transplanted in Us by God. Our Faith and Hope Must be in the Completeness of His Redemptive Work for All our Sins.  We must not trust in works or fame, but wholly lean on Jesus’ frame.

1 Peter 1:18-22 – Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; [19] But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: [20] Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, [21] Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.

I Corinthians 1:30,31 – But OF HIM are YE IN Christ Jesus, who OF GOD is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: [31] That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

Colossians 2:9,10 – For in him dwelleth ALL the fulness of the Godhead bodily. [10] And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:

We are saved by the transplanting of a living seed in us that quickens us by the new birth.  That living seed is the incorruptible word of God.

I Peter 1:23 – Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

The Spirit of Jesus is eternally transplanted in us from above by the new birth the moment we believe the word he spoke, which is spirit and is life.

John 6:62,63,68 – What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before? [63] It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. [68] Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.

And this is the eternal life giving word he spoke that we must believe to be saved.

John 5:39,40 – Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. [40] And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.

The moment the incorruptible spiritual seed penetrates to the outer surface of man’s inner soul, the Devil does everything in his power to persuade the soul to reject it, and, eventually, if it is not received, it is removed by the powers of evil.

Luke 8:4,5 – And when much people were gathered together, and were come to him out of every city, he spake by a parable: [5] A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.

The incorruptible word, once received, cannot be taken out by the Devil, but if it does not receive more of the water of God’s word, it’s effects wither away, and the person falls away from serving God, failing to follow the word to produce fruit

Luke 8:6 – And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.

The incorruptible seed does continue for awhile if it continues to receive the word, and may even produce green fruit that never matures to ripeness, but outside influences on it by family, friends, job, and the overall general influences of the world, choke off its desire and ability to grow to spiritual maturity

Luke 8:7 – And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.

Some word seed receivers let it plow and break the ground of their saved hearts.  Then the water from the word of God is allowed to transform them into solid spiritual plants of God that produce mature fruit.  They are the ones who grow to love the water of God’s word and keep it, retaining it because they value it.

Luke 8:8 – And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold.

If you have this incorruptible seed living in you, you do have spiritual ears to understand what Jesus said next.  Which one of the following four seeds best describes the state you are in today?

John 8:8-14 – And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. [9] And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be? [10] And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand. [11] Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. [12] Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. [13] They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away. [14] And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection. [15] But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with PATIENCE.

Hebrews 10:35-39 – Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompense of reward. [36] For ye have need of PATIENCE, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. [37] For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. [38] Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. [39] But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

II Peter 1:4-12 – Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. [5] And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; [6] And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; [7] And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. [8] For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. [9] But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.

This man is well defined by the man in Luke 8:6,13 who did not take the instructions of I Peter 2:2,3.  He never grew to taste the graciousness of his Savior.

Luke 8:6,13 – And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture. [13] They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

I Peter 2:2,3 –As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: [3] If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.

I don’t know the day, week, mouth, or year Jesus came in the Manger,

But I do know He Quickened My Soul and will Keep it Saved Eternally,

After Providing It with a New Glorified Body at the First Resurrection.

I was Born with a Corrupted Body and Soul from the living soul Adam

But the Last Adam Quickening Spirit Jesus Eternally Birthed My Soul

This was the Plan for man based on God’s redemption Foreknowledge

That 1^st Adam would eat of the tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil

So God was to be found as the Immanuel babe in a Bethlehem Manger

God saves man by drawing individuals to a Resurrected glorified Seed

In Whom All the fullness of the Godhead Dwells as One God Eternally

Part 4

1 Peter 1:23 – Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

Those born again by an Incorruptible Seed Do Escape Corruption, and are Set Free from Condemnation by Jesus.  They are Set Free to Serve God in Spirit and in Truth.  Those with a Corruptible Seed have not been Set Free and are Still in Bondage!

John 8:36 – If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

I Peter 1:3-5 – Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, [4] To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, [5] Who are KEPT BY THE POWER OF GOD through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

We are saved and then eternally kept by the power of God through the faith in his Son that saved us.

Ephesians 2:8-10 – For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. [10] For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Having been eternally saved by grace through faith, we are a spiritual workmanship of God by the new birth from above, set free to walk in good works by the power of his Son in us.  Spiritual growth is measured by God in the degree of what we allow him to ADD to the faith whereby he saved us.  We have, by the grace and mercy of God in Christ Jesus, escaped the corruption that is in the work through the lust of our sinful natures and are set free from his condemnation for sin, in order to be able to spiritually add to our saving faith.  We have an incorruptible seed living in us that set us free from our bondage to grow in grace.

Philippians 2:13 – For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

II Peter 1:4 – Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, HAVING ESCAPED the CORRUPTION that is in the world through lust. [5] And beside this, giving all diligence, ADD TO your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; [6] And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; [7] And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. [8] For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

We are a “workmanship” of the Spirit of God, and God “works in us” to manifest his presence to the world.  We are not to use our new found freedom, our new liberty in Christ, as a covering, an excuse, to not follow his leadership because we have been eternally set free from condemnation to Hell for our sins.  His grace is so great that he allows us to grieve him, but still does not cast us out of Christ.  We are not to take advantage of his great grace to sell out to the world of lust from which we have escaped by his grace.

I Peter 2:15,16 – For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men: [16] As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.

Ephesians 4:30-32 – And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. [31] Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: [32] And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.

The saved are sealed unto the day of redemption.  At that time the process of redemption of the corruptible part of them will be completed.  At present the saved soul is sealed with, and alongside, an incorruptible seed, surrounded by the corruptible seed in our flesh.  At the sounding of the last trump the corruptible seeded flesh will put on incorruption to complete our redemption.

I Corinthians 15:50-58 – Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. [51] Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, [52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. [53] For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. [54] So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. [55] O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? [56] The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. [57] But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. [58] Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

Ephesians 2:22 – In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

Ephesians 3:21 – Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

We shall be judged for rewards in heaven for our labor, and the degree of those rewards will be in proportion to the degree of our labor for him in this life.

Revelation 11:18 – And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.

Revelation 22:11-14 – He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. [12] And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. [13] I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. [14] Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.    

Galatians 6:7 – Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
