FEBRUARY 17 THE JESUS QUESTIONS
JQ#04 “And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye,
but do not consider the plank in your own eye?”
(Matthew 7:3)
LIVING FOR JESUS Daily Prayer
JESUS, each day as I start my day with the thought of “Jesus”, there is
a Peace that cannot be explained — but LORD I need no explanation
and that amplifies my Peace. There is no name like the Name of Jesus
and there are no thoughts like thinking about Jesus!
Each morning as I rise and go to Your Holy Word there is an eternal Hope
for my life and then I write the Name “JESUS” and my soul knows that
You are the Light of men and that Your Light is THE LIFE. Jesus forgive
me of my daily shortcomings and carry me until I finally become
One with You, the Father, and the Holy Spirit.
AMEN
THE JESUS QUESTIONS
JESUS is the Master Teacher and He has been Teaching these first
four Lessons in a specific order therefore He has a specific overall objective
because each Lesson builds upon the last Lesson and points us to the
next Lesson while keeping us focused in the direction of “Light”
that He is leading us into. This section on “Judging” has been a struggle for
me and my spirit feels violated by the world. Jesus was always
Teaching Lessons that are “universal” in that every soul of every generation
can apply EVERY LESSON THAT JESUS TEACHES to their daily lives!
In other words — “Each Lesson Jesus Taught was relevant
when Jesus first spoke His Words and they are just as relevant today
as we read His Words for the first time in our lives!!!”
I know that every thing that I read about in God’s Holy Word
points to Jesus and
when we focus on Jesus we can see God’s Love being poured
out on all generations through the Great Sacrifice and
Obedience of the Only Begotten Son
yet when I read this command from Jesus as written in Matthew 7:6 I struggle,
not because I struggle with following Jesus but because I struggle with the fear
that I am not understanding the True Lesson Jesus is trying to Teach
when He says:
“Do not give what is holy to the dogs…” (Matthew 7:6)!!
Yesterday the Holy Spirit led me to consider that this new age of unbelievers
are in the process of “re-defining God’s Moral Standard” by which
God has commanded us that
“we should judge our own actions
and let God Himself judge others”,
and it is through that process of “re-defining God’s Moral Standard” that
the new unbelievers have removed all that is “Holy” from the
“judgment process established by God” thereby making the
New Age Moral Standard “relative” to the reigning political thought
of what is best for the political beast to retain power!
I gave two instances: (1) Abortion and (2) Same Sex Marriage.
If we look at “Abortion” from its “re-definition perspective” then we see that
the “politics” of abortion is what is driving the “re-definition” of abortion
which is now defined, not from God’s Moral Standard but from the
political viewpoint which our modern society is told is
“the woman’s right to choose”. There is a great conflict with God’s Holy Word
with this modern re-definition of “abortion” as a “woman’s right” to take the life
of the new “unborn” human growing within the mother’s body designed by
God to give “life” to the unborn growing in her womb!
God grants each individual “life” and God does not give the “right”
to anyone to take that “God-given life” from the individual God gave life to.
Only by taking the “Holy” aspect away from life can they “re-define” abortion!
You cannot show a single abortion that has not deprived an individual
of that individual’s “God given right to life”!!
The same is true with “Same Sex Marriage” — Two people of the same sex
have been given by those seeking “political power” the “?legal?” right to
marriage but there is no “Biblical Justification by God’s Moral Standard”
that same sex couples can enter into “Holy Matrimony”. The political
“re-definition” of marriage has removed the “Holy” element of marriage,
therefore “Holy Matrimony” is impossible when “Holy”
has been “politically” removed from marriage!
Again this has been done to “politically re-define”
those terms that have always kept our common moral compass
pointing to the “Truth of God”.
Jesus is Teaching us on “judging” in Matthew 7:6 that
we must not abandon God’s Laws
and we should always “judge” as led by the Holy Spirit of God and not
by some “politically motivated re-definition” of men seeking to remove
that which is “Holy” from “God’s Moral Standard”!
Our society today has lost our direction and has strayed from the
TRUTH OF GOD’S MORAL STANDARD as determined by God
to be the True Definition of “Right and Wrong”.
Each society must come to the TRUTH that God is Eternal and
His Holiness is UNCHANGING — God Himself and His Holiness
must NOT be removed from the laws of our society —
for without God’s Holy Moral Standards we are left with man’s standard
which has demonstrated that we are “fallen” from God’s Holiness and we are
left living in an un-Holy Godless Society without a Moral Compass
for our Guiding Light — and where there is no “Light” to guide us,
we always end up in darkness!
Tomorrow we will start looking at JQ#05 in Matthew 7:7-12
which will return “Holy” to our judgments.
