- WHAT WAS THE PRICE, THE COST OF SALVATION.... THE DEBT WE COULD NOT PAY... JESUS PAID OUR SIN DEBT IN FULL...Isaiah 53: 1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? 2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. 3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. 4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. 7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. 8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken. 9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth. 10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. 11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. 12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors. Jesus paid the price to Save us from all of our Sins. Jesus bought us with his own Blood. "We were bought" which means that our redemption was not free, even thought it was freely given to us. The price that was paid to redeem us, to set us free from the wrath and penalty of sin to reconcile us back to God was Jesus Blood. Jesus Blood which was shed to Save us. At Calvary Jesus suffered bled and died for us, sinners who were separated from God because of our sins. But thanks be to God, that even while we were in our wretched condition, God loved us enough to put on flesh, come to earth to dwell among us through the person of Jesus Christ and shed His blood for us. Yes, it was a bloody Cross on a hill called "Golgotha," Calvary's Hill where the price of sin was paid for you and I. Hebrews 9:12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. 13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: 14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? All the penalties and punishment that you and I deserved was placed upon Jesus on that cross. Yes, He redeemed us from the curse of the law at Calvary that day over 2k years ago.0 comments0
- JUDAS BETRAYED JESUS WITH A KISS. BETRAYAL HURTS, LEAVES SCARS... HOW TO OVERCOME BETRAYAL.Jesus was Betrayed for 30 pieces of silver. What is your price to betray someone? Sadly everyone gets betrayed. Do not be Guilty of Betrayal. Betrayal is a gross violation of trust and can be one of the most devastating forms of pain inflicted upon a human being. The suffering of betrayal is often magnified by a sense of vulnerability and exposure. For many, the pain of betrayal is worse than physical violence, deceit, or prejudice. Betrayal destroys the foundation of trust. David was no stranger to betrayal: “If an enemy were insulting me, I could endure it; if a foe were raising himself against me, I could hide from him. But it is you, a man like myself, my companion, my close friend, with whom I once enjoyed sweet fellowship as we walked with the throng at the house of God” (Psalm 55:12-14). The closer the relationship, the greater the pain of betrayal. Jesus knew the pain of betrayal firsthand. The worst, most treacherous betrayal of all time was Judas’s betrayal of Jesus for thirty pieces of silver (Matthew 26:15). “Even my own familiar friend in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, has lifted up his heel against me” (Psalm 41:9,; cf. John 13:18). But Jesus did not become vindictive, bitter, or angry. Just the opposite. After receiving the traitor’s kiss, Jesus addressed Judas as “friend” (Matthew 26:50). Despite the pain, there is a way we can overcome betrayal. The power comes directly from God and the strength of forgiveness. After David laments a broken trust in Psalm 55, he hints at how to overcome the pain. He says, “But I call to God, and the LORD saves me. Evening, morning and noon I cry out in distress, and He hears my voice” (Psalm 55:16-17). The first key is to cry out to God. Though we may want to strike out at the betrayer, we need to take our cause to the Lord. “Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing” (1 Peter 3:9). Another key in overcoming the pain of betrayal is to remember Jesus’ example. Our sinful nature impels us to “repay evil with evil,” but Jesus taught us otherwise: “Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. . . . Pray for those who persecute you” (Matthew 5:39, 44). When Jesus “was abused, he did not return abuse” (1 Peter 2:23). We should conform to His example by not repaying abuse for abuse, including the abuse of betrayal. Believers are to do good even to those who harm them. [Please note that this does not mean proper criminal justice in cases of abuse, business violations, etc. should not be sought. However, seeking of such justice should not be motivated for a desire for vengeance.] Another powerful key in overcoming the bitterness of betrayal is our God-given ability to forgive the betrayer. The word forgiveness includes the word give. When we choose to forgive someone, we actually give that person a gift—the freedom from personal retaliation. But you are also giving yourself a gift—a “grudge-free life.” Trading our bitterness and anger for the love of God is a wonderful, life-giving exchange. Jesus taught that “loving our neighbor as ourselves” should be proactive: “But I tell you: love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you” (Matthew 5:44). Without question, it is enormously difficult to forgive a person who’s betrayed our trust. It is only possible with God (see Luke 18:27). Those who have experienced God’s love understand what it means to be loved unconditionally and undeservedly. Only with the help of God’s Spirit can we love and pray for those who seek to do us harm (Romans 12:14-21).0 comments0
- Commonsense Christianity for everyone Oct 3 · 47m An Example Of True Friendship: Jonathan And DavidThe Relationship between David and Jonathan is complicated because of King Saul Jonathan's Father. There is no better example in the Bible of what True Friendship is. A British publication once offered a prize for the best definition of a friend. Among the thousands of answers received were the following: - “One who multiplies joys, divides grief, and whose honesty is inviolable.” - “One who understands our silence.” - “A volume of sympathy bound in cloth.” - “A watch that beats for all time and never runs down.” The winning definition read: “A friend is the one who comes in when the whole world has gone out. Isn’t that the truth? By that definition most of us have many acquaintances but few if any real friends. Statistics tell us that most people are lucky if they have one “close friend” in their lifetime. And with the fact that Americans are moving from place to place more now than ever before it becomes very difficult to make and keep such a friend.0 comments0
- Christian Zionism IS Wrongly Being Attacked. It Is Jewish Christian Hate, A Movement Against The Nation of Israel.I Defend and I stand with Christian Zionism. Yes it is Anti-Semitic to be against Christian Zionism. The Mainstream Media, almost all Politicians in the World are against Christian Zionism. They are against the Nation of Israel. There is non-stop 24/7 propaganda against Christian Zionism. The Pseudo-Christian Cult “World Council of Churches” has been crusading against the Christian pro-Israel Jewish community for decades. Slandering, bashing Christian Zionism is a favorite topic of False Christian Churches and of numerous Jewish hating Bloggers / YouTube Channels. “Dangerous Fundamentalist Heresy,” Slanderous speech: from British, European, American, all Anti-Jewish preachers who lack respectable theological pedigrees. These detractors charge that Christian Zionists share a dark hidden agenda of forced conversions of Jews. They also charge Christian Zionists with being the main obstacle to Middle East peace due to their unquestioning support for the Nation of Israel. For at least 40 years, these people / churches have been at the forefront of a crusade against the Christian pro-Israel community. In recent years, new players have jumped on the bandwagon against Israel and its Christian supporters. These include Evangelicals (Evangelical is an overly broad label that includes Churches / people that do not believe, teach Bible Salvation). One of the latest expressions of this Evangelical hostility to Christian Zionism comes out of the respected Fuller Theological Seminary in California. After leading a “study mission” to Israel, two professors – Dr. David P. Gushee and Dr. Glen H. Stassen – published an open letter to America’s Christian Zionists, whom the authors accused of being not only sinful but producing sin in others. In their most outrageous charge, they warned that Christian Zionists will be the cause of any upcoming war against Israel, including a nuclear attack by Iran – and even suggested Israel might be deserving of such a conflagration.0 comments0
- IS HALLOWEEN / ALL SAINTS DAY CHRISTIAN? IS HALLOWEEN HARMLESS?Christian perspectives on Halloween are strongly divided. Some feel complete freedom to observe the holiday, while others run and hide from it. Many choose to boycott or ignore it, while a number celebrate it through positive and imaginative observances. Some even take advantage of Halloween's evangelistic opportunities. Halloween has pagan roots stemming from the ancient Celtic festival, Samhain. This harvest festival of the Druids ushered in the New Year, beginning on the evening of October 31 with the lighting of bonfires and offering of sacrifices. As the Druids danced around the fires, they celebrated the end of the summer and beginning of the season of darkness. It was believed that at this time of year the invisible "gates" between the natural world and the spirit world would open, allowing free movement between the two worlds. During the 8th century in the diocese of Rome, Pope Gregory III moved All Saints Day to November 1, officially making October 31 "All Hallows Eve," some say, as a way of claiming the celebration for Catholics. However, this feast commemorating the martyrdom of the saints had already been celebrated by Catholics for many centuries before this time. Pope Gregory IV broadened the feast to include the entire Church. Pagan practices associated with the season persisted and have mixed into modern celebrations of Halloween. No matter what you think of Halloween, know that it is the very highest satanic holy day. As a Christian, you should not be observing it in any way, especially IN your church. The catholic church is responsible for this day to be placed in the church. Halloween has never been a Christian holiday, and it has no place in the life of a born again Believer in JESUS CHRIST. In fact, it is an abomination to God, and we should take our stand firmly against it. As we look at its history, we find that its roots go deep into heathenism, paganism, satanism and the occult; and its modern expression is no better.0 comments0
