WHAT IS GOD'S GRACE AND MERCY?

ABOVE ALL, YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THAT NO PROPHECY OF SCRIPTURE CAME ABOUT BY THE PROPHET'S OWN INTERPRETATION. FOR PROPHECY NEVER HAD ITS ORIGIN IN THE WILL OF MAN, BUT MEN SPOKE FROM GOD AS THEY WERE CARRIED ALONG BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. (2 Peter 1:20)

AND GOD HAS COMMITTED TO US THE MESSAGE OF RECONCILIATION. WE ARE THEREFORE CHRIST'S AMBASSADORS, AS THOUGH GOD WERE MAKING GOD'S APPEAL THROUGH US. WE IMPLORE YOU ON CHRIST'S BEHALF: BE RECONCILED TO GOD. GOD MADE CHRIST WHO HAD NO SIN TO BE SIN FOR US, SO THAT IN CHRIST WE MIGHT BECOME THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD. (2 Cor.5:19b-21)

BUT AS FOR YOU, CONTINUE IN WHAT YOU HAVE LEARNED AND HAVE BECOME CONVINCED OF, BECAUSE YOU KNOW THOSE FROM WHOM YOU LEARNED IT, AND HOW FROM INFANCY YOU HAVE KNOWN THE HOLY SCRIPTURES, WHICH ARE ABLE TO MAKE YOU WISE FOR SPIRITUAL SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS. 

ALL SCRIPTURE IS GOD BREATHED AND IS USEFUL FOR TEACHING, REBUKING, CORRECTING AND TRAINING IN RIGHTEOUSNESS, SO THAT THE MAN OF GOD MAY BE THOROUGHLY EQUIPPED FOR EVERY GOOD WORK. (2 Tim. 3:14-17)

WE ARE CALLED TO BE DISCIPLES OF JESUS, "JESUS SAID FOLLOW ME". WE ALL GET THE SAME THING, GOD LOVES US ALL, WE HAVE  NO MORE RIGHTS THAN ANYBODY ELSE. THERE IS A PLACE AT THE TABLE FOR US ALL. WE ARE TO SHARE GOD'S LOVE WITH EVERYONE WE MEET.

"BUT IF ANYONE OBEYS GOD'S WORD, GOD'S LOVE IS TRUELY MADE COMPLETE IN HIM. THIS IS HOW WE KNOW WE ARE IN GOD: WHOEVER CLAIMS TO LIVE IN GOD MUST WALK AS JESUS DID." (1 John 2:5-6) "GODS WORD IS GOD'S LOVE"!

THEN JESUS CAME TO THEM AND SAID, "ALL AUTHORITY IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH HAS BEEN GIVEN TO ME.

THEREFORE GO AND MAKE DISCIPLES OF ALL NATIONS, BAPTIZING THEM IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER AND OF THE SON AND OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND TEACHING THEM TO OBEY EVERYTHING I HAVE COMMANDED YOU. AND SURELY I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, TO THE END OF THE AGE." (Matt. 28:16-20) I AM A DISCIPLE OF GOD!

JESUS TELLS US TO MAKE DISCIPLES, NOT CHRISTIANS, NOT CHURCH GOERS, NOT TO BECOME RELIGIOUS PEOPLE. JESUS GIVES US THE GREAT COMMAND "TO LOVE". TO BECOME PEOPLE WHO LOVE AS GOD LOVES BY DEMONSTRATION AND TO BE WITNESS OF GOD'S LOVE. OUR CALL IS NOT TO JUDGE, BUT TO SHOW GOD'S GRACE AND MERCY.

WHAT IS GOD'S GRACE AND MERCY? GOD'S GRACE, GOD FORGIVES ME, GOD'S MERCY, GOD LOVES ME UNCONDITIONALLY. MY PART IS TO ACCEPT THE GIFT OF GOD'S LOVE BY RECEIVING IT, THIS IS MY PART. GOD HAS GIVEN ME A COVENANT THAT CONTAINS ALL GOD'S PROMISES TO ME. BY SPEAKING THE WORDS OF THE COVENANT TO MYSELF I ACTIVATE THE POWER IN THE WORD I AM PRAYING SO THAT I CAN OBEY THE WORD, THAT I MAY LIVE ONE DAY AT A TIME.  

I AM GOD'S POSSESSION AND GOD WORKS IN AND THROUGH ME EVERYDAY SO THAT I AM THOROUGHLY EQUIPPED FOR EVERY GOOD WORK. GOD IS THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS, AND THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS TO US IS OUR SPIRITUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. THROUGH SPIRITUAL PROCESSING GOD IS TRANSFORMING US TO BE THE BODY OF THE RISEN CHRIST IN THE WORLD.

APOSTLES OF CHRIST

SO THEN, MEN OUGHT TO REGARD US AS SERVANTS OF CHRIST AND AS THOSE ENTRUSTED WITH THE SECRET THINGS OF GOD.

"NOW" IT IS REQUIRED THAT THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN GIVEN A TRUST MUST PROVE FAITHFUL. I CARE VERY LITTLE IF I AM JUDGE BY YOU OR BY ANY HUMAN COURT; INDEED, I DO NOT EVEN JUDGE MYSELF. MY CONSCIENCE IS CLEAR, BUT THAT DOES NOT MAKE ME INNOCENT. IT IS THE LORD WHO JUDGES ME. (1 Cor.4:1-4)

BUT AS SURELY AS GOD IS FAITHFUL, OUR MESSAGE TO YOU IS NOT "YES" AND "NO." FOR THE SON OF GOD, JESUS CHRIST, WHO WAS PREACHED AMONG YOU BY ME AND SILAS AND TIMOTHY, WAS NOT "YES" AND "NO," BUT IN CHRIST IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN "YES." FOR NO MATTER HOW MANY PROMISES GOD HAS MADE, THEY ARE "YES" IN CHRIST.

AND SO THROUGH CHRIST THE "AMEN" IS SPOKEN BY US TO THE GLORY OF GOD. NOW IT IS GOD WHO MAKES BOTH US AND YOU STAND FIRM IN CHRIST. GOD ANOINTED US, SET GOD'S SEAL OF OWNERSHIP ON US, AND PUT GOD'S SPIRIT IN OUR HEARTS AS A DEPOSIT, GUARANTEEING WHAT IS TO COME. (2 Cor.1:18-22)

THOSE WHO OBEY GOD'S COMMANDS LIVE IN GOD, AND GOD IN THEM. AND THIS IS HOW WE KNOW THAT GOD LIVES IN US: WE KNOW IT BY THE SPIRIT GOD GAVE US. (1 John 3:24)

WE ARE FROM GOD, AND WHOEVER KNOWS GOD LISTENS TO US; BUT WHOEVER IS NOT FROM GOD DOES NOT LISTEN TO US. THIS IS HOW WE RECOGNIZE THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH AND THE SPIRIT OF FALSEHOOD. (1 John 4:6)

NO ONE HAS EVER SEEN GOD; BUT IF WE LOVE ONE ANOTHER, GOD LIVES IN US AND GOD'S LOVE IS MADE COMPLETE IN US.

WE KNOW THAT WE LIVE IN GOD AND GOD IN US, BECAUSE GOD HAS GIVEN US OF GOD'S SPIRIT. AND WE HAVE SEEN AND TESTIFY THAT THE FATHER HAS SENT HIS SON TO BE THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD. (1John 4:12-14)

CAN I GET AN AMEN FROM ALL WHO CALL ON GOD. AMEN!

TODAY I HAVE A COVENANT WITH GOD, GOD HAS PUT HIS LAWS IN MY HEART AND GOD HAS WROTE THEM ON MY MIND. MY COVENANT WITH GOD IS MY PERSONAL PATHWAY TO GOD. BY SPEAKING THE WORDS OF THIS COVENANT OUT OF MY MOUTH BACK INTO MY HEART IT STRENGTHEN MY FAITH.

AS YOU COME TO CHRIST, THE LIVING STONE - REJECTED BY MEN BUT CHOSEN BY GOD AND PRECIOUS TO GOD - YOU ALSO, LIKE LIVING STONES, ARE BEING BUILT INTO A SPIRITUAL HOUSE TO BE A HOLY PRIESTHOOD, OFFERING SPIRITUAL SACRIFICES ACCEPTABLE TO GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST.

FOR IN SCRIPTURE IT SAYS: "SEE, I LAY A STONE IN ZION, A CHOSEN AND PRECIOUS CORNERSTONE, AND THE ONE WHO TRUST IN CHRIST WILL NEVER BE PUT TO SHAME." (1 Peter2:4-6)

CHRIST WAS CHOSEN BEFORE THE CREATION OF THE WORLD, BUT WAS REVEALED IN THESE LAST TIMES FOR YOUR SAKE. THROUGH CHRIST YOU BELIEVE IN GOD, WHO RAISED CHRIST FROM THE DEAD AND GLORIFIED CHRIST, AND SO YOUR FAITH AND HOPE ARE IN GOD. (1 Peter 1:20-21)

I AM CHRIST LIKE AND I HAVE BEEN CALLED BY GOD , AND I AM THE FIRSTBORN OF MANY BROTHERS AND I AM A CHILD OF GOD, AND I WORSHIP GOD IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH!

"YET A TIME IS COMING AND HAS "NOW" COME WHEN TRUE WORSHIPERS WILL WORSHIP THE FATHER IN SPIRIT  AND TRUTH, FOR THEY ARE THE KIND OF WORSHIPERS THE FATHER SEEKS. GOD IS SPIRIT, AND GOD WORSHIPERS MUST WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH." (John 4:23-24)

 

WE ARE CALLED TO BE DISCIPLES OF JESUS, WE ARE TO SHARE GOD'S LOVE WITH EVERYONE WE MEET!

 ABOVE ALL, YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THAT NO PROPHECY OF SCRIPTURE CAME ABOUT BY THE PROPHET'S OWN INTERPRETATION. FOR PROPHECY NEVER HAD ITS ORIGIN IN THE WILL OF MAN, BUT MEN SPOKE FROM GOD AS THEY WERE CARRIED ALONG BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. (2 Peter 1:20)

THE GREAT COMMISSION

THEN THE ELEVEN DISCIPLES WENT TO GALILEE, TO THE MOUNTAIN WHERE JESUS HAD TOLD THEM TO GO. WHEN THEY SAW JESUS, THEY WORSHIPED JESUS; BUT SOME DOUBTED. THEN JESUS CAME TO THEM AND SAID, "ALL AUTHORITY IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH HAS BEEN GIVEN TO ME.

THEREFORE GO AND MAKE DISCIPLES OF ALL NATIONS, BAPTIZING THEM IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER AND OF THE SON AND OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND TEACHING THEM TO OBEY EVERYTHING I HAVE COMMANDED YOU. AND SURELY I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, TO THE END OF THE AGE." (Matt. 28:16-20) I AM A DISCIPLE OF GOD!

I AM GOD'S POSSESSION AND GOD WORKS IN AND THROUGH ME EVERYDAY SO THAT I AM THOROUGHLY EQUIPPED FOR EVERY GOOD WORK. GOD IS THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS, AND THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS TO US IS OUR SPIRITUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. THROUGH SPIRITUAL PROCESSING GOD IS TRANSFORMING US TO BE THE BODY OF THE RISEN CHRIST IN THE WORLD.

SO THEN, MEN OUGHT TO REGARD US AS SERVANTS OF CHRIST AND AS THOSE ENTRUSTED WITH THE SECRET THINGS OF GOD. "NOW" IT IS REQUIRED THAT THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN GIVEN A TRUST MUST PROVE FAITHFUL. I CARE VERY LITTLE IF I AM JUDGE BY YOU OR BY ANY HUMAN COURT; INDEED, I DO NOT EVEN JUDGE MYSELF. MY CONSCIENCE IS CLEAR, BUT THAT DOES NOT MAKE ME INNOCENT. IT IS THE LORD WHO JUDGES ME. (1 Cor.4:1-4)

TODAY I HAVE A COVENANT WITH GOD, GOD HAS PUT HIS LAWS IN MY HEART AND GOD HAS WROTE THEM ON MY MIND. MY COVENANT WITH GOD IS MY PERSONAL PATHWAY TO GOD. BY SPEAKING THE WORDS OF THIS COVENANT OUT OF MY MOUTH BACK INTO MY HEART IT STRENGTHEN MY FAITH.

I AM CHRIST LIKE AND I HAVE BEEN CALLED BY GOD , AND I AM THE FIRSTBORN OF MANY BROTHERS AND I AM A CHILD OF GOD, AND I WORSHIP GOD IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH!

"YET A TIME IS COMING AND HAS "NOW" COME WHEN TRUE WORSHIPERS WILL WORSHIP THE FATHER IN SPIRIT  AND TRUTH, FOR THEY ARE THE KIND OF WORSHIPERS THE FATHER SEEKS. GOD IS SPIRIT, AND GOD WORSHIPERS MUST WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH." (John 4:23-24)

I DANNY MONTGOMERY AM A SAINT THAT HAS GOD HAS CHOSEN TO MAKE KNOWN AMONG THE GENTILES THE GLORIOUS RICHES OF THIS MYSTERY, WHICH IS CHRIST IN YOU, THE HOPE OF GLORY.

ABOVE ALL, YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THAT NO PROPHECY OF SCRIPTURE CAME ABOUT BY THE PROPHET'S OWN INTERPRETATION. FOR PROPHECY NEVER HAD ITS ORIGIN IN THE WILL OF MAN, BUT MEN SPOKE FROM GOD AS THEY WERE CARRIED ALONG BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. (2 Peter 1:20)

NOW I DANNY MONTGOMERY REJOICE IN WHAT WAS SUFFERED FOR YOU, AND I FILL UP IN MY FLESH WHAT IS STILL LACKING IN REGARD TO CHRIST'S AFFLICTIONS, FOR THE SAKE OF CHRIST'S BODY, WHICH IS THE CHURCH. I HAVE BECOME ITS SERVANT BY THE COMMISSION GOD GAVE ME TO PRESENT TO YOU THE WORD OF GOD IN ITS FULLNESS - THE MYSTERY THAT HAS BEEN KEPT HIDDEN FOR AGES AND GENERATIONS, BUT IS DISCLOSED TO THE SAINTS. TO THEM GOD HAS CHOSEN TO MAKE KNOWN AMONG THE GENTILES THE GLORIOUS RICHES OF THIS MYSTERY, WHICH IS CHRIST IN YOU, THE HOPE OF GLORY.

WE PROCLAIM CHRIST, ADMONISHING AND TEACHING EVERYONE WITH ALL WISDOM, SO THAT WE MAY PRESENT EVERYONE PERFECT IN CHRIST. TO THIS END I LABOR, STRUGGLING WITH ALL CHRIST ENERGY, WHICH SO POWERFULLY WORKS IN ME.

MY PURPOSE IS THAT "WE" MAY BE ENCOURAGED IN HEART AND UNITED IN LOVE, SO THAT "WE" MAY HAVE THE FULL RICHES OF COMPLETE UNDERSTANDING, IN ORDER THAT "WE" MAY KNOW THE MYSTERY OF GOD, NAMELY, CHRIST, IN CHRIST ARE HIDDEN ALL THE TREASURES OF WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE. 

(Col.1:24-2:2-3)

I AM GOD'S POSSESSION AND GOD WORKS IN AND THROUGH ME EVERYDAY SO THAT I AM THOROUGHLY EQUIPPED FOR EVERY GOOD WORK.

THE VINE AND THE BRANCHES

"I AM THE TRUE VINE, AND MY FATHER IS THE GARDENER. GOD CUTS OFF EVERY BRANCH IN ME  THAT BEARS NO FRUIT, WHILE EVERY BRANCH THAT DOES BEAR FRUIT GOD PRUNES SO THAT IT WILL BE EVEN MORE FRUITFUL. YOU ARE ALREADY CLEAN BECAUSE OF THE WORD I HAVE SPOKEN TO YOU. REMAIN IN ME , AND I WILL REMAIN IN YOU. NO BRANCH CAN BEAR FRUIT BY ITSELF; IT MUST REMAIN IN THE VINE. NEITHER CAN YOU BEAR FRUIT UNLESS YOU REMAIN IN ME.

"I  AM THE VINE; YOU ARE THE BRANCHES. IF A MAN REMAINS IN ME AND I IN HIM, HE WILL BEAR MUCH FRUIT; APART FROM ME YOU CAN DO NOTHING. IF ANYONE DOES NOT REMAIN IN ME, HE IS LIKE A BRANCH THAT IS THROWN AWAY AND WITHERS; SUCH BRANCHES ARE PICKED UP, THROWN INTO THE FIRE AND BURNED. IF YOU REMAIN IN ME AND MY WORDS REMAIN IN YOU, ASK WHATEVER YOU WISH, AND IT WILL BE GIVEN YOU. THIS IS TO MY FATHER GLORY, THAT YOU BEAR FRUIT, SHOWING YOURSELVES TO BE MY DISCIPLES.

"AS THE FATHER HAS LOVED ME, SO HAVE I LOVED YOU. NOW REMAIN IN MY LOVE. IF YOU OBEY MY COMMANDS, YOU WILL REMAIN IN MY LOVE, JUST AS I HAVE OBEYED MY FATHER'S COMMANDS AND REMAIN IN HIS LOVE. I HAVE TOLD YOU THIS SO THAT MY JOY MAY BE COMPLETE. MY COMMAND IS THIS: LOVE EACH OTHER AS I HAVE LOVED YOU. GREATER LOVE HAS NO ONE THAN THIS, THAT HE LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS. YOU ARE MY FRIENDS IF YOU DO WHAT I COMMAND.

I NO LONGER CALL YOU SERVANTS, BECAUSE A SERVANT DOES NOT KNOW HIS MASTER'S BUSINESS. INSTEAD, I HAVE CALLED YOU FRIENDS, FOR EVERYTHING THAT I LEARNED FROM MY FATHER I HAVE MADE KNOWN TO YOU. YOU DID NOT CHOOSE ME, BUT I CHOSE YOU AND APPOINTED YOU TO GO AND BEAR FRUIT - FRUIT THAT WILL LAST. THEN THE FATHER WILL GIVE YOU WHATEVER YOU ASK IN MY NAME. THIS IS MY COMMAND: LOVE EACH OTHER. (John 15:1-17)

I AM GOD'S POSSESSION AND GOD WORKS IN AND THROUGH ME EVERYDAY SO THAT I AM THOROUGHLY EQUIPPED FOR EVERY GOOD WORK.
