#advent #christmas2023 #adventword 👑 🕊️
Welcome to my channel and thanks for tuning in and listening to the message of the third week in Advent. Let us reflect these next four weeks together on the glorious hope of the return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus, the Christ.
Week 1 12/3/23---HOPE
Week 2 12/10/23--PEACE
Week 3 12/17/23--JOY
Week 4 12/24/23-LOVE
What does the WORD OF GOD say about who Jesus is?
ISAIAH 9:6 READS: Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given and the government shall be upon His shoulder: AND HIS NAME SHALL BE CALLED WONDERFUL, COUNSELOR, THE MIGHTY GOD, THE EVERLASTING FATHER AND THE PRINCE OF PEACE....
There you have it and that is just one of many scriptures that tell us who JESUS is....
I thank the Father in Heaven that He has blessed me to still be here and that He will equip me to share these messages with you for the next four weeks that point to who He is and what He came to accomplish before His return to Glory, this was His first coming but the Bible says there will be a second coming, His return in a manner unlike the first to fufill His word and promises to come for BELIEVERS IN HIM AND WHAT HE HAS DONE ON OUR BEHALF.
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. ACTS 4:12
...and to be clear holy men of God documented the word as the Holy Spirit gave them utterance none of God's Holy word is of man's private interpretation or thoughts they soke as the Holy Spirit gave them utterance. ....2 Peter 1:20-21
What does the Bible say about the second coming of Christ?
MATTHEW 24:3-14---- And as he (JESUS) sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
Thank you God for the Joy you give and the Joy that we have in you believing that you are our SALVATION, believing that you are the reason that we have relationship with the Father, believing that you died for our sins and in light of this our sin debt is paid. No, that does not give us liscence to sin and do wrong because you will forgive us if we ask. True repentance results in a change in our behavior and way of thinking. We dont answer to what the flesh wants us to do but answer to you and your word that gives us a blueprint on how we should live our lives. How can we live a life pleasing to you by willfully continuing in sin? Answer: we cant, if we aim to please God we aim to live by the word and operate within his will not ours daily.
Thank you for stopping by I hope you will return next week for the LOVE message in 12/24/23
Peace and Blessings
P.S. Correction: The sign I made for my room reads God is Love/ Jesus Saves.
