Jesus as Man vs Jesus as WORD

Image
For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. Jude 1:4 The most well known Bible verse is John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." If you Google images of John 3:16, you see tones of images representing the Cross . Apostate preachers have over-emphasized the Cross instead of the WORD when interpreting this verse . When Jesus spoke this sermon , the Cross had not revealed to the people. What many fail to recognize is when Jesus spoke about "believing in Him", He meant that we need to believe in Him AS Living Word; the Cross is what He DID; the Word is Who HE Is! John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word WAS God . The act in the flesh (the Cros

Take Heed – Part 1 Take heed! This small statement tells us to listen, and give our full attention to the warnings written. In the King James Bible, there are 65 take heed verses. Let's examine these warnings: Genesis 31:24 And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said unto him,  Take heed  that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad. Genesis 31:29 It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt: but the God of your father spake unto me yesternight, saying,  Take thou heed  that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad .  The warning here is   to remain neutral in times of conflict. Exodus 10:28 And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me,  take heed  to thyself, see my face no more; for in that day thou seest my face thou shalt die.  The warning here is   to let God deal with those who are ill-tempered.   Exodus 19:12 And thou shalt set bounds unto the people round about, saying,  Take heed  to yourselves, that ye go not up into the mount, or touch the border o

Take Heed (Part 2)

Take Heed – Part 2 These warnings keep us from wandering from the faith as well as bearing the consequences of spending eternity apart from God (the ultimate dread). Ezra 4:22 Take heed now that ye fail not to do this: why should damage grow to the hurt of the kings? This warning is in regards to when we create problems by doing what pleases us; there is a right way and a wrong way to accomplish what we do - especially when what we do is of God. Job 36:21 Take heed , regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction. This warns us to avoid complaining against God! Psalm 39:1 I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me. This warns us to keep ourselves from evil speech (slander, lying, carnality, cursing, coarse joking, abusive talk) Ecclesiastes 7:21 Also take no heed unto all words that are spoken; lest thou hear thy servant curse thee: This exhorts us to disregard it when
