Scripture Study- The Son of Man

26 Jun

Matthew 25:31, “When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.” 

Son of Man is a title Jesus used to define His calling unto the world. This calling is that of his deity, humanity and fulfillment of the Old Testament prophecy as referenced in the below scriptures.

His deity, Mathew 26:64, “Jesus said to him, “It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.”

John 5:27, “and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man.”

His humanity, 1 John 4:2 “By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God.”

His fulfillment of the Biblical prophecy, Daniel 7:13-14, “ “I was watching in the night visions, And behold, One like the Son of Man, Coming with the clouds of heaven! He came to the Ancient of Days, And they brought Him near before Him. Then to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, That all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, Which shall not pass away, And His kingdom the one Which shall not be destroyed.

The Son of Man title, represents Jesus importance to salvation, reconciliation, prophetic fulfillment and YAH’s standard for mankind to live by Shalom…

We Are So Much More, In The Eyes Of YAH! 

20 Jun

1 Corinthians 2:9, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of manThe things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

We can only imagine what life would have been like before Adam sinned, and expulsion from Eden. What great plan did YAH have in mind for His creation? How much of that great plan can be given back to us in Jesus Christ?Life has a way of deceiving us into believing we are less than and do not matter. YAH has always had great big plans in store for us who shun sin, to do His will (Ephesians 3:20). The entirety of the Bible is of man falling short and YAH reaching out to validate us as righteous, in Christ Jesus. Which confirms our calling and election (2 Peter 1:3-9).
In Christ we are restored to the original plan from the Most High, originally blessed from the beginning of creation. Genesis 5:2, 

 He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day they were created.” Can you see who you truly are in Him? I pray we all can, Shalom.

Satan’s Godless Society…

12 Jun

2 Timothy 3:1-5, ”But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!

What type of social climate will cause many to accept the Anti-Christ, a godless one. As we approach the end times we will see more and more of people’s Faith starting to wane. Whether this belief is in Jesus Christ, Justice or in the good of people it will fail them. Satan the adversary is coming for all believers and non believers, as He will portray himself as a Savior to all. 

This is why many individuals are losing hope in elected officials, law enforcement and pastors. For the love of money, all are turning away from the people they serve, and to promote other agendas. Why the police force has been demonized and attacked so that we lose faith in their ability to protect us. Gun laws are becoming more restrictive, so we will even begin to question can we even protect ourselves?

This Faithless society will be perfect for a charismatic leader to come and lead many astray. Promoting himself and the satanic “Do as thou Wilt” mentality. Free of any consequences for your actions or angering a God, the Bible warns us to be aware of these times in (Luke 21:6). 

The best way, the only way is to stay in your Bible everyday! Pray to YAH for discernment, strength and edification for yourself and others. Never lose faith in our elected officials ,police and their ability to do the work they were elected to do (1 Tim 2:1-4). We as Believers need to counter a Godless society with a faith based one with Christ at its center, Shalom…

Scripture Study- Mark 8:35 

5 Jun

“For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the gospel’s will save it.”

In Mark 8:35 Christ simplifies the Gospel in one short statement. When Christ said, “whoever desires to save their life will lose it,” references those who look to other means other than the Cross for salvation in the end will lose. This means man made philosophy, religions, people, and good deeds are all meaningless. 

The Most High provided the only atonement for sin in Christ  (Acts 4:12) based on his divine law. The wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23) and all have sinned (Romans 3:23). Therefore the sacrifice Christ made and us accepting him as our Savior can be our only means for redemption in the eyes of YAH. 

In the latter part of the scripture Jesus states, “whoever loses their life for My sake and the Gospel will save it” means to deny your own will  for His, to spread the Gospel. This good news of the Gospel is the saving grace for everyone, in knowing that we can once again be made whole. In Jesus Christ their is restoration, forgiveness, purpose, love, edification, knowledge of truth, and most importantly life, Shalom
