Comparing spiritual things with spiritual

[Santoso]

Beloved ones, we heard:

 

”And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.“

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭2‬:‭2‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

How should we NOT run in vain ? 

 

We should NOT run or had run, in VAIN, that we went up BY REVELATION ( NOT BY SECRET OR COVER-UP) and communicated unto them that gospel which we preach among the Gentiles, and in private manner or capacity to them which were of the beliefs or opinions that are generally held about Christ or the gospel.

 

Beloved ones, let us go up by revelation of Jesus Christ and communicated unto them that gospel which we preach among the Gentiles.

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ.

Amen

[Santoso]

Beloved ones, we heard:

 

”Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh? Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.“

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭3‬:‭3‬-‭4‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

How may have we suffered so many things in vain? 

 

We may suffer so many things in vain, if we are now made perfect by the flesh.

 

If we are NOT made perfected in the flesh, then we are made perfect in the Spirit, that we suffer so many things in fruitfulness.

 

Selah

[Santoso]

Beloved ones, we heard:

 

”We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles, knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.“

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭2‬:‭15‬-‭16‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

If we are Gentiles, can we be Jews? 

 

That we may understand, for we who are spiritual and inwardly good by nature, and not physical and outwardly sinner by nature, knowing that we are justified by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ: for by faith of Jesus Christ we shall be justified.

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ.

Amen

[Santoso]

Beloved ones, we heard:

 

”We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles, knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by THE FAITH OF JESUS CHRIST, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.“

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭2‬:‭15‬-‭16‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

How may we understand THE FAITH OF JESUS CHRIST? 

 

This, we heard:

 

”I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by THE FAITH OF THE SON OF GOD, WHO LOVED ME, AND GAVE HIMSELF FOR ME.“

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭2‬:‭20‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

That we may understand, the faith of Jesus Christ is the faith of the Son of God, who loved us, and gave Himself for us.

 

What should be our faith?

Our faith should be to love Jesus, and give ourselves for Him. 

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ.

Amen

[Santoso]

Beloved ones, we heard:

 

”Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one. Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.“

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭3‬:‭19‬-‭22‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

That we may understand,for  faith is the reason, then serve the promise because of obedience after the seed should come to whom the promise was made: and the promise was not ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator but was ordained that God is one, for the law is for promises of God. God allow: 

for there had been a promise 

given which have given life, verily righteousness have been by the promise. 

For the scripture has begun

all under grace, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ.

Amen

[Santoso]

Beloved ones, we heard:

 

”Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.“

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭2‬-‭3‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

How may we not be debtors to do the whole law ? 

 

Let us behold, faith of Christ worked by love of God, Christ shall profit us everything.

 

‭For I testify again to every man that is faith worked by love, that he is a creditor to believe the promise.

 

Beloved ones, that we may not be debtors but creditors — let us believe the promise.

 

You may ask what the promise is. This, we heard:

 

”And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, IN THEE SHALL ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.“

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭3‬:‭8‬-‭9‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

Beloved ones, let us be blessed with faithful Abraham, that we believe THE PROMISE. 

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ.

Amen

[Santoso]

Beloved ones, we heard:

 

”What man is he that feareth the LORD? Him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.“

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭25‬:‭12‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

This is the answer, we heard then:

 

”His soul shall dwell at ease; And his seed shall inherit the earth.“

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭25‬:‭13‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

That we may understand, the man is ABRAHAM, he that feareth the Lord,

FOR HIS SOUL SHALL DWELL AT EASE. 

 

Him, ABRAHAM shall He teach in the way that He shall choose, THAT HIS SEED SHALL INHERIT THE EARTH.

 

Selah

 

What makes Abraham’s soul dwell at ease ? 

 

In the same chapter, we heard:

 

”Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.“

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭25‬:‭1‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

That we may understand, that THE LORD, makes Abraham’s soul at ease, that He lifts up Abraham’s soul.

 

For we heard:

 

”So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.“

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭3‬:‭9‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

Beloved ones, let us then we be of faith, that unto the Lord, do we lift our souls, for we are blessed with faithful Abraham.

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ.

Amen

 

 

How do Abraham’s soul dwell at ease ? 

 

This we heard in the same chapter, Abraham prayed:

 

”O my God, I trust in thee: Let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.“

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭25‬:‭2‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

Beloved ones, let us be of faith, that our souls trust in our God, for He will not let us be ashamed, for He will honor us through Christ, for He will let not our enemies triumph over us, for we will triumph through our God, for we are blessed with faithful Abraham.

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ.

Amen

 

Beloved ones, for we remember what we have heard:

 

”His soul shall dwell at ease; And his seed shall inherit the earth.“

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭25‬:‭13‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

For we understand, him, Abraham shall He ( the Lord) teach in the way that He shall choose, that his seed (Christ) shall inherit the earth. 

 

What makes Abraham’s seed shall inherit the earth ? 

 

This, we heard:

 

”Now to Abraham and his seed WERE THE PROMISES MADE. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.“

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

That we may understand, Abraham’s seed (Christ) shall inherit the earth,is one of the promises that the Lord made.

 

Selah

 

How shall Abraham’s seed inherit the earth ?

 

This, we heard:

 

”The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; And he will shew them his covenant.“

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭25‬:‭14‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

Abraham’s seed shall inherit the earth through the Lord’s covenant, that He will show us that fear Him.

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ.

Amen

Beloved ones, we heard:

 

”The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; And he will shew them his covenant.“

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭25‬:‭14‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

How should we fear the Lord, that we may know the secret of the Lord? 

 

Then, this we heard:

 

”Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; For he shall pluck my feet out of the net.“

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭25‬:‭15‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

That we may understand, the secret of the LORD is with them that fear Him, for those who fear the Lord, the eyes of their hearts are united in Christ, are ever on the Lord. 

 

That we may understand, that  He will shew them His covenant, For He shall pluck our feet out of the net, for He shall remove us out of the covenant of bondage of sin.

 

Beloved ones, let us be of faith, that the eyes of our heart are ever on the Lord, for we shall be planted in the covenant of freedom of goodness of God, for for we are blessed with faithful Abraham. 

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ.

Amen

[Santoso]

Beloved ones, we heard:

 

”Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; For he shall pluck my feet out of the net.“

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭25‬:‭15‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

How our eyes are ever toward the Lord ? 

 

This is what we have heard, then:

 

”Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; 

For I am desolate and afflicted.“

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭25‬:‭16‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

That we may understand, if 

our eyes are ever toward the Lord, that our hearts are ever toward the Lord, that the Lord turn unto us, and have mercy upon us, for He shall pluck my feet out of the net, that He shall remove us from the covenant of bondage of sin, for we am desolate and afflicted.

 

That we may understand, our hearts  that are ever toward the Lord, that the Lord turn unto us, and have mercy upon us, for He shall put on us His covenant of freedom of the goodness of God, for we are fertile and comforted. 

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ.

Amen

[Santoso]

Beloved ones, we heard:

 

”Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; 

For I am desolate and afflicted.“

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭25‬:‭16‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

How are we desolate and afflicted ? 

 

This, we heard then:

 

”The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.“

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭25‬:‭17‬ ‭KJV‬‬

 

If we turn NOT unto the Lord, and the Lord have NOT mercy upon us— the troubles of our hearts are enlarged.

 

If we turn unto the Lord,we cried or prayed unto the Lord: 

 

“O bring thou me out of my distresses.”

 

That we may understand, we that turn unto the Lord, and the Lord have mercy upon us, for  the peace of Christ’s heart are enlarged, that He cover us up in His comfort.

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ.

Amen
