DECEMBER 22 THE JESUS QUESTIONS JQ#1-33 SUMMARY-08
The Gospel of Matthew: A Study of the Life,
Death, Burial, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ
LIVING FOR JESUS - Daily Prayer
{{The Holy Spirit is again leading me to post a prayer originally written in 2004}}
“Jesus, You are the Messiah, praise Your Holy Name,
God became flesh, the Redeemer of all men from the bondage of sin,
You have freed us from the Law of Sacrifice for You
have substituted Your Holy Self as the Atonement, once for all!!!
Lord, teach me to share the Good News to both Jew and Gentile
that the Messiah has come,
the GOOD NEWS that Jesus, the Son of Man has sacrificed His Perfect Life
and shed His Spotless Blood, the Sacrifice of GOD’S Passover Lamb
so that the angel of death will “pass over” all who believe
that Jesus is the Passover Lamb and apply His Blood
to the doorposts and lintel of our hearts.
Salvation is through the Messiah, God’s Anointed One,
for God sent His Son, born of a “virgin”, sacrificed on a cross,
buried in a borrowed tomb, and was raised to Glory on the 3rd Day —
The MESSIAH HAS COME!!!
AMEN
DECEMBER 22 THE JESUS QUESTIONS
<<Note: >> The JESUS Questions have their relevance ONLY in the
TRUTH OF GOD
that
JESUS IS GOD’S SON, GOD’S ANOINTED,
GOD”S CHOSEN ONE, GOD’S MESSIAH
and through the “understanding” of
GOD’S TRUTH
we come to a
TRUE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD HIMSELF!
My individual encounter with the Holy Spirit as He leads me in the writing of
The JESUS Questions
sometimes is VERY personal as was the DECEMBER 21 blog
in which I wrote of being led by the Holy Spirit to fulfill “part of a 2004 prayer”
and that “part” was for me to get personally involved
in the work of the Holy Spirit and I was
“to do something about this evil and vile situation
that is removing the Name of JESUS from so many [aspects of our lives] ”
and today in my study of His Word, the Holy Spirit led me to an article
about the Messiah written by Tracey R. Rich that states:
“If you want to know how Jews interpret the passages that Christians
consider to be messianic, see Jews for Judaism, a counter-missionary
organization not associated with this website, especially their article about
Christian Proof-Texting.”
Today when I read the DECEMBER 21 prayer that said,
“teach me to share the Good News to both Jew and Gentile
that the Messiah has come”
the thought that struck me was that there is a sect of Jews that has
taken the Name of Jesus and “separated Him from His Messiahship”
which is every bit as “vile and evil” as America promoting
“separation of church and state” if taken from the viewpoint
of removing the name of God from public places.
To “legislate” that God is not allowed in public schools literally removes
God’s “moral standard” from our government and therefore the
“federal government is free to decide what is moral in our society” ———
and there is nothing more “vile and evil”
than man usurping God’s Power ———
for man has been proven untrustworthy since the first bite of forbidden fruit!
Therefore, in fair and equal treatment of everyone, every nationality,
and every religion, I will continue to be led by the Holy Spirit and continue
writing articles based on “God’s Standards” and “His Holy Word”
and keep letting the Holy Spirit remind us that GOD IS TRUTH,
“so if you are not listening to God, then you are not listening to the Truth!!!”
If man (and woman) had listened when God said
“do not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,
for in the day you eat of it you shall surely die” (Genesis 2:17)
instead of listening to THE LIE when the Tempter said,
“you will not surely die” (Genesis 3:4) then the knowledge of
good and evil would have remained on the tree and man would have
remained in the Garden of Eden, forever.!
So at the very beginning even Satan himself was (and still is) using
the Word of God to lead us FROM GOD’S TRUTH
but each of us must listen to what God says and
KNOW GOD IS TRUTH !!!
DO NOT LISTEN to Satan for Satan is the father-of-lies!?!?!?!
Jesus at an early age (starting first with the ‘IMMACULATE CONCEPTION”
and with the “VIRGIN BIRTH”) was fulfilling prophecy
about the Messiah and starting with the 3rd chapter of the Gospel
bearing his name, Matthew documents that the life of Jesus revealed
Jesus IS the True Messiah by His actions — because
the actions of Jesus Himself could only be accomplished by the True Messiah!!!
At the start of the 3rd Chapter of the Matthew’s Gospel of Jesus,
Matthew introduces the Messiah’s “star witness”, John the Baptist.
Here again we will see that Jesus fulfills prophecy of the Messiah
by circumstances beyond His control and starting with the 3rd Chapter,
Matthew demonstrates that all Scripture and all prophecy
point to Jesus as the Messiah and even the most casual reader
will see that Jesus by His actions and lifestyle cannot be interpreted as
“just a good man doing good works”
as Satan would have you believe, but
the “good works” of Jesus were accomplished by God Incarnate,
Immanuel, and it was the Power of God in Jesus that was doing
“miraculous works” that could only be accomplished by God Himself
— and therefore the “actions” of Jesus proclaim and witness that:
JESUS IS CHRIST, GOD’S ANOINTED ONE!!!
