JANUARY 01 THE JESUS QUESTIONS Introduction-01: Lessons, Lifestyle, and Parables of Jesus: JQ#1-JQ#33 (Matthew 1:1 thru 28:20)

 MONDAY  JANUARY 1, 2024.    This is the beginning of a monumental year in all of human history so the format of this blog is being altered to include a “Comments” section called THE PATRIOTS PULPIT. This introduction is a little long but is needed to set the stage for 2024 - not just another year…


*********************************************


        {{{General Note from the “writer” of this blog: This blog is not meant to “argue” or “prove” the existence of God but is a 365 day “STUDY OF THE GOSPEL OF MATTHEW”. The “writer” of this blog sits down at the start of each day with an open Bible and as the Holy Spirit reveals the LIGHT of God’s WORD, the “writer/scribe” simply writes down in this blog what this daily reading of God’s Holy Infallible Word  in the Holy Bible has inspired the “writer/scribe” to write daily in this blog. }}} 


>>> 2024 Additional Note: The Holy Spirit began this blog in 2016 and it has been written continuously every day for 8 years 2016 through 2023. In 2023 an additional “Current Events Comment Section” was incorporated as this “writer/scribe” emailed out The JESUS Questions blog to a select few friends. Of course with the global events impacting so dramatically and radically the way life in America is lived because of global/political  infringement of individual freedoms, the additional “Comments” were “political” in nature but centered around a “Biblical Worldview”. The Holy Spirit in the latter part of December 2023 challenged this “writer/scribe” to add a “Patriot’s Section” to this JESUS QUESTIONS Daily Journal in which the objective will be to document the VICTORY of GOOD over EVIL that will occur in 2024 as the Holy Spirit led me in 2023 to grow in my faith with the assurance that GOD WINS! Many Patriots are convinced like me that this “battle” is for “souls” and is “SPIRITUAL”. As the EVIL is exposed and viewed through a Biblical Worldview it becomes clear that the world has been “enslaved” and this “enslavement” is both “spiritual” and “global” and for those that are daily in the WORD, a great parallel can be drawn between earth of 2023 and “the days of Noah”. What the “PATRIOTS PULPIT” section will document in 2024 will be a “Comment” on a daily event as this CHRISTIAN PATRIOT “Comments” on “Current Events” from a “Christian Patriot’s Biblical Worldview”. <<<


{{{[Personal Disclaimer] —There is no claim that “I am right” but I simply ascribe as  GOD’S TRUTH  that which the WORD OF GOD  DAILY speaks to “this writer/scribe” from His Holy Word, THE BIBLE — fully admitting to all, that although this “writer’s” intellect is limited by my worldly flesh,  I can confidently proclaim to the “reader” that this “writer’s” spirit is free!] I unapologetically proclaim that my worldview is from my AMERICAN DREAM developed from a study of GOD’S HOLY WORD and that JESUS IS THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD — and my faith is built on the belief that GOD WINS!!!}}}

JANUARY  01   THE JESUS QUESTIONS   Introduction-01: Lessons, Lifestyle, and Parables of Jesus: JQ#1-JQ#33  (Matthew 1:1 thru 28:20)


The Gospel of Matthew: A 365 Day Study of the Life, Death, Burial, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ



LIVING FOR JESUS   Daily Prayer    

JESUS, we begin this new year with HOPE, not because of anything we have done but because of WHAT (we believe) GOD HAS DONE! Lord Jesus, I have year after year made resolutions and tried to make changes in my lifestyle, but on my own I have to admit that very little positive progress was ever made — until — until I learned of the HOPE that is given as a Free Gift called Grace included in a single verse of scripture that is so familiar that the verse is considered cliche — but to those who read the verse and know why the verse was inspired and the original intent, the verse itself can be read a thousand times a day and with each reading NEW HOPE springs forth eternal from GOD’S HOLY WORD


“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) 


Therefore looking expectantly towards a year that HOPE will reign sovereign in my day-to-day life, I start this day, January 1, 2023 with this prayer to my Lord Jesus and TRUST GOD’S PROMISE that JESUS will “never leave nor forsake” me and I will look forward with HOPE to JESUS leading this “writer” in “paths of righteousness”!!!    AMEN


JANUARY  01   THE JESUS QUESTIONS   Introduction-01: Lessons, Lifestyle, and Parables of Jesus: JQ#1-JQ#33  (Matthew 1:1 thru 3:17)


This blog is a “Daily Devotional” — for this “writer” — and you are invited to make it part of YOUR DAILY TIME WITH GOD as I encourage you to spend EACH DAY of the NEW YEAR 2023 ahead in the WORD OF GOD and LET GOD SPEAK DIRECTLY TO YOU THROUGH HIS WORD. The Holy Bible contains all the TRUTH each unique individual needs to live an abundant life and this blog is simply a window into my soul which has found Peace with God from the WORD OF GOD! The cliche then is to desire “World Peace” yet deny the TRUTH that can achieve “Inner Peace”. The writer of this blog was given an “Inspiration” on February 29th of 2016 and that “Inspiration” is the basis of this daily blog: The Holy Spirit presented the challenge to this “writer” in this way: “Read through the complete Gospel of Jesus Christ written by St. Matthew (the first book in the New Testament) starting with Matthew 1:1 and every time you come to a ‘Question’ that Jesus asks, your challenge is to give Jesus a ‘Truthful answer’.”  Think about that challenge and your “mission” <<< should you choose to accept it >>> is to read the Gospel according to Matthew and “give Jesus a TRUTHFUL answer”— we are all different and each of us has a unique perspective. This blog therefore is simply this “writer” sharing a personal “perspective” of what the WORD OF GOD has done for my life once I started my “Spiritual Journey to Truth”.


  TRUTH can only be found where TRUTH exists, not where we want it to exist 


As you read this blog remember that the TRUTH OF GOD will change you from the inside out and that you will see that person in the mirror in a different “LIGHT” — remember also that TRUTH is FREE so what have you got to lose??? The Holy Spirit left me with these words of wisdom: 


“No one but GOD owns the TRUTH and He gives it FREELY to all who search for it, so if someone tries to charge you for TRUTH, don’t buy it — Remember, it is a LIE if it comes with a cost!”  


SEE YOU TOMORROW, THE HOLY SPIRIT PROMISES 

TO LEAVE THE LIGHT ON FOR YOU

The PATRIOT’S PULPIT

(beginning Monday, January 1, 2024)


Comment: 1/1/24 Monday 5:41A - Good morning Patriots! I begin the New Year with HOPE. My faith is in the Promises of God from His Holy Word. As I look around at how evil seems to be getting the upper hand in the minds of those that do not know the WORD of God and therefore are susceptible to evil influences because they have no knowledge of the “Promises of God”, I desire to share the Word of God with those who are enslaved by the darkness. Just as Adam and Eve and every generation after them has had to make our own CHOICES the either believe God and HIS TRUTH or decide for ourselves what is TRUE so the world in 2024 is going to be forced to believe God to give us the TRUTH or listen to the evil forces telling us give up our dreams and freedoms and let a few powerful satan worshippers decide for the entire world what is “best for the common good”. This PATRIOT for one believes that God Knows what is BEST and God is the giver of LIFE and LIGHT. I simply do NOT TRUST the satan worshippers who have promoted death and darkness to determine what is “good” or “right”. 2024 is going to be the year the world makes the transition from “dark to light” but just like it takes a while to adjust our eyes after being in the dark for a long time and then turning on the light suddenly, it will take some time to help those that have grown accustomed to the dark. The world has been lied to for generations so it is going to take some time to wake them up from the nightmare of evil and darkness.


In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 

And the earth was without form and void, and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the SPIRIT of GOD was hovering over the face of the waters. 

Then God said, “Let there be light.” And there was light.  

Genesis 1:1-3 


In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

 He was in the beginning with God. 

All things were made through Him and without Him nothing was made that was made.

 In Him was life and the life was the light of men.

 And the light shines in the darkness and the darkness did not comprehend it.  

John 1: 1-5
