Matthew 9 (Reading through the Bible)

  

1-8    And He entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into His own city.

And, behold, they brought to Him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.

And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.

And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?  For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?

But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith HE to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.

And he arose, and departed to his house.

But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.

*****

9    And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and He saith unto him, Follow ME.

And he arose, and followed Him.

(I've always taken this as an example.  When God speaks a word to me, I act upon that word quickly, as soon as I am persuaded that word is from God.)

*****

10-13    And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with Him and His disciples.

And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto His disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?

But when Jesus heard that, He said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.

But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

(The second coming will be to gather the righteous.)

*****

14-17    Then came to Him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?

And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse.

Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.

*****

18-26    While He spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped Him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay THY hand upon her, and she shall live.

And Jesus arose, and followed Him, and so did His disciples.

And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind Him, and touched the hem of His garment:

For she said within herself, If I may but touch His garment, I shall be whole.

But Jesus turned Him about, and when He saw her, He said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole.

And the woman was made whole from that hour.


And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,
He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth.

And they laughed Him to scorn.

But when the people were put forth, He went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.

And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.

*****

27-31    And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed Him, crying, and saying, Thou son of David, have mercy on us.

And when He was come into the house, the blind men came to Him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this?

They said unto him, Yea, Lord.

Then touched He their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.

And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.

But they, when they were departed, spread abroad His fame in all that country.

*****

32-34    As they went out, behold, they brought to Him a dumb man possessed with a devil.

And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.

But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince of the devils.

*****

35-38    And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.

Then saith He unto His disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;
Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He will send forth labourers into His harvest.

💥 Tonight I heard both USA political parties try to present themselves as the "good guys" and the other party as evil and God reminded me of a scripture..

Jesus warned us ...

Matthew 24:3-4   And as HE sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto HIM privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?  4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

I am currently reading a book about WWII bombings of London by Germany and of Berlin by British.  Both sides slant what they are doing to try to show the other side as evil and wrong.  And the English fell for this as did the Germans in Berlin.

Politicians try to show themselves as good and the other party as evil.

Don't be deceived.

What do we read in the Bible.

Jesus said, "There is none good but God."  (Mk. 10:18)

Listen to God and repeat what HE tells you for it will be good and right!

The apostle John said:  I John 5:18-19  We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

19 And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.

Pay attention to that which God whispers into your ear by the Holy Spirit. 

Let no man deceive you.

💥 The destruction of Jerusalem: Many times we read of this.

Comments by Joan Boney:

 

Many times Jerusalem is destroyed in history but at the end of this world it will happen again.  Jerusalem will be destroyed a last time.

 

***

 

In April, 2024, Iran fired missiles on 3 cities in Israel.  One of those cities was Jerusalem.  God reminded me of this scripture:

 

Luke 21:20-22  Jesus said:  

 

20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.

 

(Currently it is reported by Israel that 7 armies surround Israel.)

21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.

22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

 

 24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.

25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

 

Mt. 24  Jesus said: 

 

21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

 

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And HE shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

 

💥💥💥

 

I don't believe we've seen "the power of heavens shaken" yet ...

 

A woman in our church group was given a dream showing this.  Her report.  (Barbara Preston) She and her husband were going out to buy a new TV.  She was ready and was waiting at the car for her husband, who was not ready.

All of a sudden the sun turned dark!  She knew what it was but was terrified.  She started to run back into her house but she knew that would do no good so she just fell down on her knees.

 

I believe this is what is coming in the days ahead.

  

* Jerusalem will be destroyed. 

* God will bring the 14 plagues of the Great Tribulation. (Rev. 8,9,16)

* Then the powers of heaven will be shaken.  The earth will move in the solar system as Isaiah reported:  Isaiah 13:10-13  God says:  For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.

 

(Also Joel reports the powers of heaven being shaken:  

 

Joel 1:1  The word of the LORD that came to Joel the son of Pethuel.

 

 Awake, ye drunkards, and weep; and howl, all ye drinkers of wine, because of the new wine; for it is cut off from your mouth.

6 For a nation is come up upon my land, strong, and without number, whose teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he hath the cheek teeth of a great lion.

7 He hath laid my vine waste, and barked my fig tree: he hath made it clean bare, and cast it away; the branches thereof are made white.

8 Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth.

9 The meat offering and the drink offering is cut off from the house of the LORD; the priests, the LORD'S ministers, mourn.

10 The field is wasted, the land mourneth; for the corn is wasted: the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth.

11 Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is perished.

12 The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men.

13 Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meat offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house of your God.

14 Sanctify ye a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land into the house of the LORD your God, and cry unto the LORD,

15 Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.

 

* Jesus will come through the clouds and all will see HIM.

* Jesus sends HIS angels to gather HIS elect to remove the elect from this earth.

* Then God destroys this present heaven and earth with fire.  2 Peter 3:10-14

11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.

12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.

13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger. 

 

Joel 2

 

1  Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;

2 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations.

3 A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them.

 

 10 The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:

11 And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?

12 Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning:

13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.

14 Who knoweth if he will return and repent, and leave a blessing behind him; even a meat offering and a drink offering unto the LORD your God?

15 Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly:

16 Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.

17 Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O LORD, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?

 31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.

32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.

And the apostle Peter tells us what we should do:

2 Peter 3:10-14

10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.

I report to you that which God called to my attention in April when Iran fired  missiles on 3 cities of Israel.

 

I believe this was the beginning of those "days of vengeance" where all things written in the Bible will be fulfilled.

 

The evil has grown so much on this earth ... antichrist has moved into so many churches also and doctrines of Christ have been changed to other doctrines.

 

The old people so often say, "Things are so watered down at our church." 

I expect destruction to continue until Jerusalem is destroyed in the days ahead.

And all things written in the Bible are fulfilled before our eyes, unfolding one by one until those who read the Bible have no doubt where we are living in the Bible prophecies.

Comments by Pam Padgett ...  CNN reported   "Since the Trump administration abandoned the nuclear agreement with Tehran in 2018*, to put curbs on its nuclear program, the Islamic Republic has been gradually ramping up enrichment of uranium, a key ingredient of a nuclear bomb if purified to a high level. "

 

*(According to wikipedia, the  "Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action" (also known as the "Iran nuclear deal") was agreed to by the United States, China, France, Russia, United Kingdom, Germany in 2015.  It provided that Iran's nuclear activities would be limited in exchange for reduced sanctions^, and that every 90 days the President of the United States would certify, among other things, that Iran was adhering to the terms of the agreement.  

 

On October 13, 2017, then US President Donald Trump announced that the United States would not make the certification.  Then on May 8, 2018, President Trump announced that the United States would withdraw from the agreement. )

Comments by Joan Boney:

When God heals us or changes us it is often immediate ... I had been watching a golfer, Jordan Spieth, from Texas ever since he came on tour and I was always wanting him to win ... That is of my flesh for I don't know if it is the best thing for him to win, spiritually speaking.  It is also irrational.  I find sports are that way.  

In 2017, at one of the major tournaments, I was getting ready to watch and I heard a word which changed everything.  It was from Holy Spirit. 

I heard, "Do you really care if Jordan Spieth wins another 10-million dollars?" 

"No, I don't."  I replied to God.

Immediately all interest in seeing him evaporated and I was instantly set free.

When I was born again, it was immediate.  I didn't have to do anything at all to be born again.  God just did it by His own will with His word to me which caused me to be changed forever.

Matthew 8:5-13    And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto Him a centurion, beseeching Him,

And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.

And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.

The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.

For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.

When Jesus heard it, He marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.  But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee.

And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.

Matthew 8:28-34    And when He was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met Him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way.

And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding.

So the devils besought Him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine.

And He said unto them, Go.

And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.

And they that kept them fled, and went their ways into the city, and told every thing, and what was befallen to the possessed of the devils.

And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw Him, they besought Him that He would depart out of their coasts.

Matthew 7 (Reading through the Bible) Jesus lays the beginning of the doctrines for the NT Church... Today we are at the end and soon Jesus will take HIS elect into heaven..

 

1-5    Judge not, that ye be not judged.

For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

(And the Holy Spirit says:  "If you judge someone is judging, aren't you judging?")

*****

6    Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

*****

7-12    Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?

Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?

If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask Him?

Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

*****

13-14    Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

I Corinthians 6:9-10    Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate (homosexuals), nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

*****

Galatians 5:19-21    Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

*****

Matthew 7:15-20    Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Ye shall know them by their fruits. 

Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

*****

Matthew 7:21-23    Not every one that saith unto ME, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of MY Father which is in heaven.

Many will say to ME in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in THY name? and in THY name have cast out devils? and in THY name done many wonderful works?

And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from ME, ye that work iniquity.

24-27    Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of MINE, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

And every one that heareth these sayings of MINE, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

(We must build our house on a sure foundation... on that which God has said.)

*****

28-29    And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at HIS doctrine:   For HE taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

 

(The season of the New Testament Church begins after the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus.  Jesus is laying the foundation for the NT chuch with these words in this chapteer.  Jesus is showing the people a new way of life is coming.  It comes after Jesus is crucified and taken into heaven.  Then the NT church begins.  We are living at the end of the period of the NT church and soon Jesus returns and we receive new spiritual bodies and are taken to the new heaven and new earth wherein dwelleth only righteousness.)

 

Seasons:

* God creates the heaven and earth and man.

* God makes a way to God through the Old Testament.

* Jesus comes in the form of a man and begins to show doctrines that the New Testament church will live by but that NT Church does not exist until after the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus.

* As Jesus teaches, we are shown the doctrines of the NT Church.

* From heaven Paul is called as an apostle to the early NT Church which now exists.

* For the next 2000 years the NT Church works on this earth. We follow the doctrines Christ taught when HE lived on this earth.

* The end of all things begins with the destruction of Jerusalem.  LK. 21:20-22

💥 I'm so happy! I do what Peter says! Live in peace, without spot, blameless DAILY!

Comments by Joan Boney:

Having food and raiment, let us therewith be content.  I Timothy 6

God has nice surprises for me!  Yesterday I was watching a documentary on WWII when Pam came into my room wanting me to meet someone.  It was our new neighbor.  He was born in Africa, the son of missionaries.  He is a pilot for United Air Lines International route!

I shared the recent information God has given me about the end of this world and what to take note of, watching for the destruction of Jerusalem!  And I gave him a recent writing showing order of what to expect according to Bible.

 

He said to me, "You're never depressed."  I said if something happens to trouble me, I just pray and God makes me joyful again.

 

I have fun things in my life, and quite a lot of variety!

 

I'm a night person.  I love to read the William Shier books of WWII.  I just watched 2 hrs. of Gilder Radner films from the 70's..   I often get up around noon and if I'm sleepy I go back to bed and sleep until I feel awake, and often God will show me something to write and I get up and write it for the church.  (I love to write when God gives me something and I try not to write unless I'm sure God wants me to tell that.)  I avoid people who trouble me.

 

When I awaken each morning, I can ring the bell and Pam comes and makes coffee and fixes me a biscuit with French jelly. Then Pam (I live at her house) shows up between 4-5 pm to see what I want to eat for dinner.  She is happy and filled with faith and by nature joyful.  We enjoy a little trip out in the car God had us buy which is almost a year old now.  (a Mercedes)  The two big dogs go with us.  We also have  cats which we love.

 

We have no debt and really have anything that we want.

 

I have a double window in my bedroom and can see clouds and trees and weather which I greatly enjoy.  Soon we will have snow and can have a fire in the fireplace.

 

I quit being a football fan this year because you have to worry if you are a fan.  I still watch some football.

 

I don't care who becomes president of the United States so there is no pressure. 

 

I rarely go out of my bedroom and am totally joyful most of the time.

 

Follow peace, joy, godliness keeping your goal on patiently waiting until Jesus returns for HIS elect and removes us from this earth and takes us to the new heaven and new earth and we get to shed these fleshly bodies so there is no pain or sorrow. (Rev. 21:1-5)

 

If we know what the Bible says, and we belong to God, I think we have good reason to be happy all day long while we wait!

 

(I'll be 87 this coming month. I try to avoid medical doctors and certainly don't get involved with troubles of this world, politics, elections ... keep my trust in God to work it out.  I just mostly share God and entertain myself.)

 

I'm convinced God wants us to live in peace ... keep ourselves joyful daily. Turn from people who trouble us and things that trouble us.  Focus on Bible and what God says.

 

💥💥💥💥💥

💥 Beware of getting caught up by involvement in the evil of politics. The end of all things is near. Focus on godliness.

The Bible shows us the end of this world can be seen by the destruction of Jerusalem.  When we see that, we know it won't be long before all things written in the Holy Bible will be fulfilled and God will destroy this heaven and earth with fire.

Set your focus on living a life that pleases God.  Teach your children such things.

Avoid the evil of politics and evil of elections of governments of men. 

The end of all things is at hand.  The destruction of Jerusalem will show us the beginning of the end.

Soon God will destroy this heaven and this earth with fire.

2 Peter 3

 

10   But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.

Matthew 6 (Reading through the Bible)

 

1-4    Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.

Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:

That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret Himself shall reward thee openly.

*****

5-13    And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask Him.

After this manner therefore pray ye:

Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name.

Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

*****

14-18    For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;  That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.

*****

19-21    Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

(I believe we lay up treasure in heaven each time we hear word of God and do word of God.)

*****

22-23  The light of the body is the eye:  if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.  

But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!

*****

24-34    No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.

Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?

Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?

(Can you get an inch taller by thinking about it?)


And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:  And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall He not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

(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.

(Thoughts about tomorrow will come to us.  Instead of thinking on those thoughts, pray, settling the matter through prayer and by waiting until God brings the answer to you and then act upon that which you hear from God.)

💥 The love of money is the root of all evil. How can we desire money when we understand the end of this world is coming.?

1 Timothy 6

 

 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.

7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.

8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.

10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

13 I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;

14 That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:

15 Which in HIS times HE shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.

17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;

18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;

19 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:

21 Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.

They try to lure people through "free" things and give aways which I find sickening.

 

God will give me what I need and what I ask for.  I lack nothing.  

 

If they reduce Social Security ... so what?  God will see that I have not only what I need but an abundance!

 

Ephesians 3:20  Now unto HIM that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,  

 

The power in me is the Holy Spirit who will show me what to do before I need to do it!

 

They put their faith in elections of men which they think will benefit them someway.

 

I choose to put my faith in God who is not only able to do for me but will do all things for me even above what I might think or ask, because my faith is in HIM. 

 

So you are voting for some human because you want something?  Not me!  God will do it for me.

(I wouldn't have given me a Mercedes but God did!)

God gives me above even what I can think or imagine!  And I don't even have a salary!  but I have a nice place to live with a person of real faith and a nice car to ride in though I can't drive ... and I don't want to go anywhere!  and I don't want anything except to know from God that which HE wants you to hear from me.

Matthew 5 (Reading through the Bible) Jesus begins showing what the NT church will be.

 

1-16    And seeing the multitudes, He went up into a mountain: and when He was set, His disciples came unto Him:  And He opened His mouth, and taught them, saying,

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for My sake.

Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

Ye are the light of the world.  A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

(When we speak godly words, showing the way of God, if they turn from the way of the world and turn to God, they glorify God instead of glorifying the world.  By our godly words which we speak, we bring light and give opportunity for them to turn into the way of God.)

*****

17-20    Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

(The law is fulfilled through Jesus, the Word.  We do not remove "the law" but rather by Jesus, by following HIM and resisting our own flesh, we end up fulfilling the law.)

For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

*****

21-24    Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:

But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;  Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

*****

25-26  Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.

*****

27-30    Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

*****

31-32    It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:

But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

*****

33-37    Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:

But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:

Nor by the earth; for it is His footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.

Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.

But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.

*****

38-48    Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:

But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.

And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.

And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.

Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.

Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?

And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?

Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
