π₯ Podcast: Living godly lives by the Spirit of God, not by letter of the law
π₯ Scriptures:
22 And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
π₯ John 6 (Reading through the Bible)
2 And a great multitude followed Him, because they saw His miracles which He did on them that were diseased.
3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there He sat with His disciples.
4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
5 When
Jesus then lifted up His eyes, and saw a great company come unto Him,
He saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
6 And this He said to prove him: for He Himself knew what He would do.
7 Philip answered Him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.
8 One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto Him,9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many? (There were 5,000 men.)
10 And
Jesus said, Make the men sit down.
Now there was much grass in the
place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 And
Jesus took the loaves; and when He had given thanks, He distributed to
the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and
likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
12 When they were filled, He said unto His disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
13 Therefore
they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the
fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto
them that had eaten.
(They had more at the end than at the beginning.)
14 Then
those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is
of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
15 When
Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take Him by force,
to make Him a king, He departed again into a mountain Himself alone.
***
16 And when even was now come, His disciples went down unto the sea,17 And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
18 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.
19 So
when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see
Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were
afraid.
20 But He saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
21 Then they willingly received Him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.
***
22 The
day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea
saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto His
disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with His disciples into
the boat, but that His disciples were gone away alone; 23(Howbeit
there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did
eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)
24 When
the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither His
disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for
Jesus.
25 And when they had found Him on the other side of the sea, they said unto Him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
26 Jesus
answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek Me, not
because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and
were filled.
27 Labour
not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto
everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for Him
hath God the Father sealed.
***
28 Then said they unto Him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on Him (on The Word) whom He hath sent.
***
30 They said therefore unto Him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?
31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
32 Then
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you
not that bread from heaven; but My Father giveth you the true bread from
heaven.33 For the bread of God is He (The Word) which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
***
34 Then said they unto Him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
35 And
Jesus said unto them, I (The Word) am the bread of life: he that cometh to Me
shall never hunger; and he that believeth on Me shall never thirst.
36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen Me, and believe not.
37 All that the Father giveth Me shall come to Me; and him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out.
38 For I came down from heaven, not to do Mine own will, but the will of Him that sent Me.
39 And
this is the Father's will which hath sent Me, that of all which He hath
given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the
last day.
40 And
this is the will of Him that sent Me, that every one which seeth the
Son (The Word), and believeth on Him (The Word), may have everlasting life: and I (The Word) will raise
him up at the last day.
***
41 The Jews then murmured at Him, because He said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.
42 And
they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and
mother we know? how is it then that He saith, I came down from heaven?
***
43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.
44 No man can come to Me, except the Father which hath sent Me draw him: and I (The Word) will raise him up at the last day.
45 It
is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every
man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of (from) the Father, cometh
unto Me.
(God will teach them. God will put HIS laws into their hearts and minds. Hebrews 8 & 10 ... Also God speaks to HIS people directly by HIS Spirit to teach them the way of God. John 14:26 & John 16:13)
46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save He which is of God, He hath seen the Father.
***
47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me (on The Word) hath everlasting life.
48 I (The Word) am that bread of life.
49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
50 This (The Word) is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.
***
51 I (The Word) am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this
bread (The Word), he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is My
flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us His flesh to eat?
***
53 Then
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the
flesh of the Son of man, and drink His blood, ye have no life in you. (Eating and drinking the Word)
54 Whoso
eateth My flesh (The Word), and drinketh My blood (The Word), hath
eternal life; and I (The Word) will raise him up at the last day.
55 For My flesh (The Word) is meat indeed, and My blood (The Word) is drink indeed.
***
56 He that eateth My flesh (The Word), and drinketh My blood (The Word), dwelleth in Me (The Word), and I (The Word) in him.
(We eat HIS flesh and drink HIS blood when we consume the WORD, HIM, and make it a part of us, abiding in the WORD.)
***
57 As the living Father hath sent Me (The Word), and I live by the Father: so he that eateth Me (The Word), even he shall live by Me (The Word).
***
58 This (The Word) is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat
manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread (The Word) shall live for ever.
***
59 These things said He in the synagogue, as He taught in Capernaum.
60 Many therefore of His disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?
61 When Jesus knew in Himself that His disciples murmured at it, He said unto them, Doth this offend you? 62 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.
64 But
there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the
beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray Him.
65 And He said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto Me, except it were given unto him of My Father.
66 From that time many of His disciples went back, and walked no more with Him.
***
67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
68 Then Simon Peter answered Him, Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast the words of eternal life. 69 And we believe and are sure that Thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
***
70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
71 He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray Him, being one of the twelve.

π₯ Podcast: Covetousness comes by comparing yourself with others
II Corinthians 10:12 For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.
I Corinthians 5:11;13 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat... put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
Ephesians 2:10 For we are HIS workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
π₯ Scriptures:
2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.
3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.
39 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.
40 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also.
41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge HIM, and HE shall direct thy paths.
π₯ John 5 (Reading through the Bible)
2 Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
3 In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
4 For
an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the
water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in
was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
5 And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, He saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
7 The
impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is
troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another
steppeth down before me.
(Even
though this man knew he could not get into the water in time to be
healed, this is what he kept trying. Jesus had another way for him.
And it worked.)
8 Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
9 And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
10 The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
(The
Jews were filled with envy because Jesus did these great miracles and
the people flocked to Jesus. The evil in the Jewish leaders blinded
them to the real miracle of God.)
11 He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.
12 Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?
13 And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed Himself away, a multitude being in that place.
14 Afterward
Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art
made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.
15 The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole.
16 And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay Him, because He had done these things on the sabbath day.
(Yet the real reason was because they were envious of Jesus. They used the sabbath to justify their hatred.)
***
17 But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
18 Therefore
the Jews sought the more to kill Him, because He not only had broken
the sabbath, but said also that God was His Father, making Himself equal
with God.
***
19 Then
answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The
Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He seeth the Father do: for what
things soever HE doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
(The
son watches the father and copies the father. If your father is God,
you watch and copy God. If your father is the devil, you watch and copy
the devil.)
20 For
the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth Him all things that Himself
doeth: and He will shew Him greater works than these, that ye may
marvel.
21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom He will.
22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: 23 That
all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that
honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent Him.
***
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.
***
25 Verily,
verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead
shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
(Those of us born again heard HIS voice and were raised from the dead.)
26 For as the Father hath life in Himself; so hath He given to the Son to have life in Himself;
27 And hath given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of man.
28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear His voice, 29 And
shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of
life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
Jesus says ...
30 I
can of Mine own self do nothing: as I hear (from God), I judge: and My judgment is
just; because I seek not Mine own will, but the will of the Father
which hath sent Me.
***
31 If I bear witness of Myself, My witness is not true.
32 There is another that beareth witness of Me; and I know that the witness which He witnesseth of Me is true.
33 Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.
34 But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved.
35 He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
36 But
I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the
Father hath given Me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness
of Me, that the Father hath sent Me.
37 And
the Father Himself, which hath sent Me, hath borne witness of Me.
(God also bears witness of us today when HE has us speak or do HIS word.)
Ye
have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His shape.
38 And ye have not His word abiding in you: for whom He hath sent, Him ye believe not.
39 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.
***
41 I receive not honour from men.
42 But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
43 I am come in My Father's name, and ye receive Me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
44 How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?
45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.
46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed Me; for he wrote of Me.
47 But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe My words?

π₯ Podcast: Love toward the Word of God
13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure.
14 Do all things without murmurings and disputings:
15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
16 Holding forth the word of life;
It is very exciting for us to be on this earth for we are as lights as we hold forth the word of life.
π₯ Scriptures:
3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
Proverbs 16:3 Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established.
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
Psalm 48:14 For this God is our God for ever and ever: HE will be our guide even unto death.
