We are already clean, Beloved!"
Brethren,
Knowing that The WORD of The LIVING GOD, is LIVING and POWERFUL, and is able to give, and restore LIFE." Have you felt The WORD of The LIVING GOD, doing a good work, and transforming your LIFE?" I ask this, because that's what The WORD of The LIVING GOD," does."
Consider how Philippians 1:6-10 affirms this TRUTH, by saying: Being confident of this very thing, that HE Who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the Day of JESUS CHRIST; just as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as both in my chains and in the defense and confirmation of The GOSPEL, you all are partakers with me of GRACE.
For GOD is my witness, how greatly I long for you all with the affection of JESUS CHRIST. And this I pray, that your LOVE may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment, that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense till the Day of CHRIST.
Brethren,
Before I embraced The LORD JESUS CHRIST, and HIS "LORDSHIP" over my LIFE.
Every other word that came out of my mouth, was a curse word, and offensive." Foul language, with me, was the norm." But because I was Blessed to be brought to my knees through an illness,
GOD heard my plea" as I cried out to HIM, asking that HE would heal me." You see, I knew that I was sick!" But not just physically!" No! But much "more so," SPIRITUALLY.
At that time, I didn't know that humanity's only healing, comes by Trusting GOD, and embracing The TRUTH of HIS WORD. Yes, I needed to Believe The WORD of The LIVING GOD.
I needed to Believe "The SOURCE" that created everything, and gave to each of us, LIFE.
For only by Believing GOD,
does one become wise enough, to fear GOD, and stray from do things that reflect negatively on HIM.
For personally speaking, I would hate to be counted among those, to whom The LORD speaks to, when HE says in Romans 2:24
For "The NAME of GOD is blasphemed among the gentiles because of you," as it is written.
I would hate to be counted among them, Beloved Brethren!
Especially, since I refer to JESUS CHRIST, as my LORD.
I much rather speak clean, and write clean!" And I aim to stay clean, by being washed daily, by the water of The WORD of The LIVING GOD.
And I pray that we would all be washed daily, by the water of GOD'S WORD, Beloved."
For GOD'S WORD is LIVING and POWERFUL, and sharper than a two-edged SWORD." And HE is able to wash us, and to establish us, in HIM. In The TRUTH!"
Even as HE did, Brethren, with a young Moabite girl, named Ruth."
I LOVE The WORD, that Ruth spoke to her mother in law, when her mother in law had told her, to go back with her people, that she had no more son's, that she could marry.
Ruth 1:16-17 reveals her declaration, like this🤔: But Ruth said: entreat me not to leave you,
Or turn back from following after you, for wherever you go, I will go; and wherever you lodge, I will lodge.
Your people will be my people, and your GOD, my GOD. Where you die, I will die, And there I will be buried.
The LORD do so to me, and more also, if anything but death parts you and me."
Brethren,
Knowing that we are The BODY of CHRIST, and members of one another.
Not even death, Beloved, shall seperate us." But I pray that while we are still alive. That we run for The GLORY of GOD, with all our heart! That we be of one mind, and seek to LOVE one another, being kind."
I pray that The LORD, would help us, to never again, be mean to anyone." But to LOVE one another, and speak clean words to eachother."
That we comply with Ephesians 4:32 that gives us each, this instruction: And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as GOD in CHRIST forgave you.
Right!" For even as GOD, in CHRIST, forgave us." So we also, must do!" And not throw one another, under the bus!"
For I assure you, that in my LOVE for you, I pray, and write to encourage you.
That we might live together, for The GLORY of GOD."
And after reading my message, I hope that you agree, “That it's a clean message!” For “I write clean, because I think clean!"
It’s not an effort.”
What I express in print comes from within my heart, where CHRIST, The WORD of The LIVING GOD, has altered the very core of my Being."
Consider this,
An uncle of mine, used to say me: "Tell me who you hangout with, and I'll tell you, who you are!" At that time of my LIFE, my friends were gang members, and drug dealers." And I can assure you, that their character traits, rubbed off on me." Before I knew it, I was stuck like glue, in it!"
But today," I see that uncle, and I say to him: "Uncle,
I hangout with The WORD of The LIVING GOD, JESUS CHRIST.
"Please tell me, Uncle, "Who am I?"
By The GRACE of GOD,
I read The BIBLE everyday, and strive, The WORD of The LIVING GOD, to obey." Yes, to call JESUS CHRIST, "LORD," that way!"
And my Uncle, says: You're a new man!"
And 2nd Corrinthians 5:17 assures me of it, saying: Therefore, if anyone is in CHRIST, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new!
Brethren,
All things have become new, and now I stick to The WORD of The LIVING GOD, like glue!" Because chapter 15 of John, records our LORD'S lesson to us, HIS disciples, about abiding in HIM, as the only means to a fruitful LIFE."
In the midst of HIS imagery of "The VINE" and the branches, The LORD says: “You are already clean because of The WORD which I have spoken to you.”
And because we recieve The WORD of The LIVING GOD, as TRUTH." We are each clean," and “free from all impurity, without blemish, and spotless even."
For at work within our heart, is The SPIRIT of The LIVING GOD, Who is purifying us," with The WORD."
Who is CHRIST, The LORD." And only by HIS POWER, Beloved, can we remain clean."
So HIS instruction to each of us, remains."
In John 15:4-5, it reads: Abide in ME, and I in you. As the Branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in The VINE, neither can you, unless you abide in ME.
"I AM The VINE, you are the branches. He who abides in ME, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without ME you can do nothing.
So be abiding in The WORD of The LIVING GOD, we will bear much frut, and not be untruthful, for HIM, Who of our FAITH, is The ROOT!"
Brethren,
Because none of us are perfect, I know that we often fail." But I pray that we each would know, that “if we confess our sins, The LORD, our GOD, is FAITHFUL and just to cleanse us from all unright-eousness.”
JESUS CHRIST, The WORD of The LIVING GOD, "has made us clean through HIS sacrifice, Beloved Brethren.
And so we can be absolutely certain of this, HE has given us HIS WORD.
And so I pray, that we stay in The VINE, and that our speech and actions GLORIFY HIM, Who is your LORD, and mine!" JESUS CHRIST!"
"The VINE" that we abide in."
AMEN!"
JESUS
