Meet His SacrificeWritten by Joyce C. Lock
Would Jesus go to through all suffering of cross If God's promises were a lie?Do we truly believe The entire Bible is infallible word of God When we discount its application To modern day church? When Jesus said we could do works He'd done And even more, Did He really mean just some of them? When authority gets heart service, But God gets lip service, Have leaders become our gods? Jesus respected authority. But, who did He bow to? If we don't know how to do works Jesus did, Isn't He best One to learn from?
| | Knowing Them By Their Fruit ...Written by Joyce C. Lock
A prophet is to be proclaiming things heard from God. Whenever God speaks, scripture supports it ... though probably not where someone points, "Thus saith Lord," stealing God's words (running when He didn't send them). Prophets guide people through their wilderness. You will know them by their fruit, as God reserves spiritual gifts for those who have heart for it. Within Bible is God's definition for most every word of significance given in scripture. God is His own best commentator. Teachers forgot to teach themselves. If you are really interested in God's intent, ask Him. Search scriptures. If you seek God, with your whole heart, He will reveal himself to you. And when His Spirit writes words upon your heart (which is truth, as He cannot lie), you will come to 'know' God in newfound ways. The words of His mouth are our necessary food. Some teach, if you pick just one verse, you are taking it out of context. How, on earth could you have taken it out of context if God spoke it to your heart? However God speaks to your need, that word is infallible. Though, it might be true if you are selecting a verse to support your thinking (telling God what He believes).
