TO THOSE WHOM GOD HAS CALLED, BOTH JEWS AND GREEKS, CHRIST THE POWER OF GOD AND THE WISDOM OF GOD!

 I AM NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL, BECAUSE IT IS THE POWER OF GOD FOR THE SPIRITUAL SALVATION OF EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES: FIRST FOR THE JEW, THEN FOR THE GENTILE. FOR IN THE GOSPEL A RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, A RIGHTEOUSNESS THAT IS BY FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, JUST AS IT IS WRITTEN: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Rom.1:16-17)

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 TRULY 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"!

WE DO, HOWEVER, SPEAK A MESSAGE OF WISDOM AMONG THE MATURE, BUT NOT THE WISDOM OF THIS AGE OR OF THE RULERS OF THIS AGE, WHO ARE COMING TO NOTHING. NO WE SPEAK OF GOD'S SCERET WISDOM, A WISDOM THAT HAS BEEN HIDDEN AND THAT GOD DESTINED FOR OUR GLORY BEFORE TIME BEGAN. NONE OF THE RULERS OF THIS AGE UNDERSTOOD IT, FOR IF THEY HAD, THEY WOULD NOT HAVE CRUCIFIED THE LORD OF GLORY. (1 Cor. 2:6-8)

"I, CHRIST WISDOM, DWELL TOGETHER WITH PRUDENCE; I CHRIST WISDOM POSSESS KNOWLEDGE AND DISCRETION. TO FEAR THE LORD IS TO HATE EVIL; I CHRIST WISDOM HATE PRIDE AND ARROGANCE, EVIL BEHAVIOR AND PERVERSE SPEECH. COUNSEL AND SOUND JUDGEMENT ARE MINE; I CHRIST WISDOM HAVE UNDERSTANDING AND POWER. BY ME KINGS REIGN AND RULERS MAKE LAWS THAT ARE JUST; BY ME PRINCES GOVERN, AND ALL NOBLES WHO RULE ON EARTH.

I CHRIST WISDOM LOVE THOSE WHO LOVE ME, AND THOSE WHO SEEK ME FIND ME. WITH ME ARE RICHES AND HONOR, ENDURING WEALTH AND PROSPERITY. MY FRUIT IS BETTER THAN FINE GOLD; WHAT I YELD SURPASSES CHOICE SILVER. I CHRIST WISDOM WALK IN THE WAY OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, ALONG THE PATHS OF JUSTICE, BESTOWING WEALTH ON THOSE WHO LOVE ME AND MAKING THEIR TREASURIES FULL.

THE LORD BROUGHT ME CHRIST WISDOM FORTH AS THE FIRST OF GOD'S WORKS, BEFORE GOD'S DEEDS OF OLD; I CHRIST WISDOM WAS APPOINTED FROM ETERNITY, FROM THE BEGINNING, BEFORE THE WORLD BEGAN. WHEN THERE WERE NO OCEANS, I CHRIST WISDOM WAS GIVEN BIRTH, WHEN THERE WERE NO SPRINGS ABOUNDING WITH WATER; BEFORE THE MOUNTAINS WERE SETTLED IN PLACE, BEFORE GOD MADE THE EARTH OR ITS FIELDS OR ANY OF THE DUST OF THE WORLD.

I CHRIST WISDOM WAS THERE WHEN GOD SET THE HEAVENS IN PLACE, WHEN GOD MARKED OUT THE HORIZON ON THE FACE OF THE DEEP, WHEN GOD ESTABLISHED THE CLOUDS ABOVE AND FIXED SECURELY THE FOUNTAINS OF THE DEEP, WHEN GOD GAVE THE SEA ITS BOUNDARY SO THE WATERS WOULD NOT OVERSTEP GOD'S COMMAND, AND WHEN GOD MARKED OUT THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE EARTH.

THEN I CHRIST WISDOM WAS THE CRAFTSMAN AT GOD'S SIDE. I WAS FILLED WITH DELIGHT DAY AFTER DAY, REJOICING ALWAYS IN GOD'S PRESENCE, REJOICING IN GOD'S WHOLE WORLD AND DELIGHTING IN MANKIND. "NOW THEN, MY SONS, LISTEN TO ME; BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO KEEP MY WAYS. LISTEN TO MY INSTRUCTIONS AND BE WISE; DO NOT IGNORE IT. BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO LISTENS TO ME, WATCHING DAILY AT MY DOORS, WAITING AT MY DOORWAY. FOR WHOEVER FINDS ME CHRIST WISDOM FINDS LIFE AND RECEIVES FAVOR FROM THE LORD. BUT WHOEVER FAILS TO FIND ME HARMS HIMSELF; ALL WHO HATE ME CHRIST WISDOM LOVES DEATH. (Prov. 8:12-36)

THE QUESTION WAS ASKED IN CHURCH TODAY WHO DO YOU SAY CHRIST IS? THIS IS WHO CHRIST JESUS IS TO ME.

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)
