The Devotional – Search the Scriptures – 409

A Bible snippet—and more
1 Peter 1:18-19 CJB

You should be aware that the ransom paid to free you from the worthless way of life which your fathers passed on to you did not consist of anything perishable like silver or gold; on the contrary, it was the costly bloody sacrificial death of the Messiah, as of a lamb without defect or spot.

The Christ/Messiah – Is The LORD – Call to Repentance

Taking the necessary time to meditate on the Apostle Peter’s call to be aware of the price that Jesus paid to free us from the curse and penalty of sin. And what the Apostle Paul has challenged the church at Epaphus to be aware of, and this being ‘unity’ in both epistles, we can understand that the training given by the Holy Spirit is not a ‘Moot Point’. What do I mean? Subjects in the Holy Bible are not debatable as some teachers are prone to lean to.

The Bible is the Word of God, God is not DEAD, therefore like God, His Word is alive! Are you kidding Jesse? NO! I’m serious, and if you are a child of God you know this is true by revelation of God the Holy Spirit who is in you. Just as He keeps you and me alive, He also keeps the Word of God alive which will never die. (Matt 5:18). Today there are over SIXTY translations of the Bible. It seems that anyone with any biblical knowledge of Common Greek or Hebrew has their interpretation of what God is saying to His Children. Most of these claim inerrancy, but not all are inspired.

I do not wish to go any deeper than this, the point I am wanting to make is ‘BE AWARE’, aware that was COSTLY to the sacrificial LAMB, who is the ransom of God, who paid the debt for all sin. Jesus paid the sin debt for ‘all the world’ (John 3:16) are you AWARE? And are you aware that after His death, He gave spiritual gifts to all men, that is to all who believe? To some, He gave to be missionaries (apostles), and to some; prophets, evangelist, and teachers to (PASTOR) His church—not your church. 

Not a church made with the hands of man, but a church that is AWARE and SPIRITUALLY alive in the only Truth—Jesus died for the sins of the world and He rose again from the dead—Jesus is the FIRST Fruit of ‘this Truth’ and we who believe are the fruitful result, BUT FIRST; YOU MUST BE BORN – AGAIN. (John 31-18).

The Devotional – Search the Scriptures – 169 Luke 14:7-14 - So He told a parable to those who were invited, when He noted how they chose the best places, saying to them: “When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in the best place, lest one more honorable than you be invited by him; “and he who invited you and him come and say to you, ‘Give place to this man,’ and then you begin with shame to take the lowest place. “But when you are invited, go and sit down in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may say to you, ‘Friend, go up higher.’ Then you will have glory in the presence of those who sit at the table with you. “For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted. Then He also said to him who invited Him, “When you give a dinner or a supper, do not ask your friends, your brothers, your relatives, nor rich neighbors, lest they also invite you back, and you be repaid. “But when you give a fea

The Devotional – Search the Scriptures – 161.1 SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:   Luke 12:1-5 There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And Jesus answered and said to them, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? “I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. “Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? “I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.” Jesus, the Christ of God/Messiah An excerpt from yesterday’s devotional: In our passage, the point of the LORD is not that of being a newscaster but placing the death of these people beyond human judgment, in fact; Jesus does not look at the death of human beings as we do. All humans, past present and future will die a ph
