Hello angels,

The Bible says that we are saved by Grace, through faith unto good works. Grace is a free gift from God. We are not saved by works so that no man may boast. Praise God  :biggrin:

Faith in Christ is all one needs.  That is all that He asks of us.  When we love Christ we should have the fruits of the spirit listed in Galations 5:22-26:

 But when the Holy Spirit controls our lives he will produce this knd of fruit in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control; and here there is no conflict with Jewish laws.

 Those who belong to Christ have nailed their natural evil desires to his cross and crucified them there;

 If we are living now by the Holy Spirit's power, let us follow the Holy Spirit's leading in every part of our lives.

 Then we won't need to look for honors and popularity, which lead to jealousy and hard feelings.

GRACE!!!

Ephesians 2:8

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.

2 Corinthians 12:9

My grace is sufficient for thee.

Not only am I saved by grace alone, I am kept by the "Power of God" and not my own works.

Eph, since we are saved by G-d's grace alone (which I emphatically believe), then why do you not believe I am saved since I keep G-d's appointed feasts and since I believe in a post-trib, pre-wrath rapture?

Eph writes...

Well remember that it is a daily walk of FAITH...Angles..!

Yesterday's FAITH doen't do you or me or anyone a bit of good today...Jesus said take up YOUR cross and follow me..

Other places in scripture DEUT 33:25..say that God gives us "shoes of Iron and Brass" and as your day goes so shall your strength be...Thats not shoes for a walk in the  flowers type journey..!

The road we're on is a tuff one..thus He gives us tough shoes for a tough journey...It's a daily walk of FAITH.!

Thats why FAITH in the NT...is a VERB..! An action word...something that meant much more than just "believe"...!

Maybe I am unable to make things clear, so I will reiterate.  Nothing can add to or take away our salvation.  Keeping the feasts does not add to it, abstaining from snow crab does not add to it.  I said salvation is by the grace of G-d alone.  

Eph  writes: "Only in Christ can we keep ALL the feasts up to GOD's standard."

Exactly!  That is the ONLY way!

And if G-d tells someone to go in a path different than most, that person had better go because to do anything different is sin.  For example:  If G-d tells you to abstain from alcohol, even though drinking alcohol is not a sin, if you drink it is a sin because you would be disobeying a direct order from G-d.

By the way, I like the book of Galations, there is nothing in there to avoid.  It is the Word of G-d.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
