High Priest Greater than Melchizedek Jesus Christ grew up with suffering and obedience to perfect Him to become the source of eternal salvation to all those who obey Him. With these words, I am reminded by this: The last shall become first and the first shall become last. Jesus Christ was born a...

Entering God’s Rest As children of God we are promised entering into His rest, so long as we obey and believe in the One sent by God, Jesus Christ - the Son of God. He is the rest (Lord over Sabbath) we enter into when we believe and follow Him. We have to be cautious and be sure that we don’t...

Jesus Christ is Greater than Moses Jesus is greater than Mosses because He is a faithful Son to His Father. Moses, while also faithful, was a servant of His house. Moses also spoke about Jesus Christ’s coming. Seriousness of Unbelief An important lesson in unbelief is pointed out in this...

The Unforgivable Sin Matthew 12:24-25 “But the Pharisees, when they heard it, said, “This man does not expel demons except by Beelzebul the ruler of demons!” But knowing their thoughts, he said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and every city or household divided...

Do Not Take Salvation Lightly In addition to the previous chapter, this tells us to be aware, at all times, the gift we have received. To weight day in and day out our actions and behaviour, to match His will as our own. Jesus Christ should be our desire; “Where your heart is, there your...

HIStory In a historical age, God made known His plans to His House, Israel. Even in these times has God spoken about His Son, Jesus Christ. The Son Himself even pointed this out to the proud Jews by saying “You study the scriptures because you think they give you eternal life; and it is they...

Definitions Darkness, Deep (Tehom: sea, abyss) and Formless. These are the 3 elements of Chaos (tohu wa bohu). This oddly is in opposition of the Trinity of God (this is just an observation). Chaos: Tohu va vohu. Formless: Confusion, unreality, emptiness Void: Waste, destruction, ruin The...

***A reflection of my thoughts as a whole of what scripture says*** Marriage What God has been teaching me about His design is that the world has marriage backwards, so much so that relationships are either ruined or on their way to destruction. Marriage is not about self like you see in many...

August 14, 2014 seals that day 5 years ago yesterday, when I became a new creation in Christ Jesus. Loosing track of time is sometimes far too easy and that is what happened yesterday. So, I am reading my carefully, Spiritually guided, small 4-book Devotionals. One of them was a reminder of...

And of others before God's. Jeremiah 7:24 This makes me look at what is going on in the world today. How wicked this world is becoming to the point of Sodom and Gomorrah. You see and hear of many ‘backward’ things and most of all, hate for one another. A great modern example of this is New...

Christians, family of Christ, please listen ever more to what God has to say and guide you to do. There is SO much darkness in the world today that we are truly getting closer and closer to the Days of Noah and Lot. However, this also means that Christ is about to return, as you know if you...

I've been watching the Gospel of John and every now and then I'll get something taught to me in my spirit. Since coming back to God in 2014, God has been leaving me some bread crumbs along the way in my spiritual growth. I don't document all of them, but I'm now thinking I should be, at least...

Opening the First 6 Seals I was stuck on the first passage about the white horse and who’s on it. I didn’t want to just believe what everyone else was saying and I wanted clear Biblical references that coincide, and by God’s help I was able to find it! Mirror: Revelation 6:1-8 & Revelation...

This is a short chapter, so I'm not going to post verse by verse this time. It seems very to the point anyway. The theme of this chapter is of course about Jesus Christ Who is the only Worthy Lamb, Lion, and Root to open the book/scroll of 7 Seals. The Father is also depicted here Who sits on...

Right in the first verse there is a mention of the "open door". I actually missed this because I was not reading Revelation chapter after chapter, leaving it for a while and coming back to it again. This wasn't pointed out to me until I heard a sermon on this chapter. This open door is from...

What does the Bible say about these hot topics? Legalism vs the Spirit of Life. This is man that is indeed a Christian, but please do pray and double check with the Spirit that what he teaches is God's Truth. Remember to lean not on your own understanding, but God's wisdom.

What is marriage? What does it mean to be married to another? Looking back, I didn’t at all understand what it was all about. I witnessed a lot of hate and hostility between my parents. Why? Where did this come from? For years of my life I searched for the meaning of love which is conjoined in...
