This was so simple to understand. How he starts off with himself abd the to us and to the bible. Letting us know we are not alone in this thing called brokenness. God bless hi. And his family. Just simple to understand. Great!!
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. Tonight (March 17), I attended a Lent service at my sister church. 2 Kings 15:1-3, 7-15 was our Scripture for the Evening. It was entitled "Trust." The hymn, "Holy God, We Praise Your Name," translated by Clarence A. Walworth (1820-1900), is a good hymn to compliment this Scripture, regardless of denomination.
Remember. So many things in OT point to Jesus. Its all about Him. The story of Namaan is a fore-shadow of Gods simplicity in Christ and how we as prideful human beings want a different-way and think our Works need to contribute to salvation. This is why so many people mock the real gospel because they want to sneak their own understanding and works/deeds into salvation as opposed to accepting that Jesus did it all in a one-time-event. The real gospel is an offence to people because the gospel says there is nothing you can do to be saved but believe that Jesus did it all by himself. People love works and end up relying on them for salvation. People clean up their life by themselves and say Look what I did to deserve righteousness. Never add your works to Jesus’ work. Many like to add discipleship to salvation. Salvation is an event and discipleship is the walk as a saved person After you are saved. Namaan in his pride wanted a spectacular work to save him. Not just that dirty Jordan. The Jordan was too simple for him. Pride. Namaan expected Elisha himself to come and not a mere servant. Namaan was furious. He wanted special treatment and thought the other rivers were superior to the Jordan (own-understanding). A servant with a simple message was not good enough for him. It shows you how simple salvation is ….. but people actually expect deeds to save them. Wrong. The seven dips in the water is not that we should try and try again to get it right. Seven is the number of perfection and does not represent ENDLESS attempts of works. So don’t try and try again to be saved..... as salvation can only be a one time simple event which qualifies you (Gods Gift). Simple and the same way for all, no matter if you are a great general or a suffering beggar. Don’t put yourself in bondage of your own works. Be secure in the simplicity of Christ and salvation. Unfortunately people wont accept salvation through Grace even though it is written……. Epph 2 8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. All Glory to God...........
@@ThingsILove2266 all good that i so is from Jesus so thank him as it is a message from he who is in me. But I thank you also for your kind comment. Smile Blessings to you.
Mismatched socks is not a sin, man of God. Naaman was operating against the chosen ones of Israel and led victories in favor of Benhadad. God’s mercy toward him brought him into the fold which is what God promises to our or Jesus’s natural enemies if they acquiesce to being cleansed by Him.
*KERAJAAN ALLAH* *Akulah gembala yg baik. Domba-domba-Ku mendengarkan Aku.* *Aku berdoa untuk mereka,* sebab mereka adalah milik-Mu. Dan Aku tidak ada lagi di dalam dunia, tetapi mereka masih ada di dalam dunia. Ya Bapa yg kudus, peliharalah mereka *supaya mereka menjadi satu sama seperti Kita. Dan bukan untuk mereka ini saja Aku berdoa, tetapi juga untuk orang-orang, yg percaya kepada-Ku oleh pemberitaan mereka; supaya mereka semua menjadi satu, supaya dunia percaya, bahwa Engkaulah yg telah mengutus Aku.* Yoh.17:9, 11, 20-23 Aku telah disembelih dan dengan darah-Ku Aku telah membeli mereka bagi Allah dari tiap-tiap suku dan bahasa dan kaum dan bangsa. Dan *Aku telah membuat mereka menjadi suatu kerajaan, dan menjadi imam-imam bagi Allah mereka, dan mereka akan memerintah sebagai raja di bumi.* Mereka adalah kerajaan imam dan bangsa yg kudus. Itulah yg Ku kehendaki bagi bangsa-Ku Israel di gunung Sinai, tetapi Israel tidak setia dan membunuh utusan-utusan-Ku juga Aku. Sebab itu Kerajaan Allah diambil dari Israel dan diberikan kepada suatu bangsa yang akan menghasilkan buah Kerajaan itu. Wah.5:9b-10, Kej.19:5-6, Mat.21:43 Dimana mereka, suatu Kerajaan imam di bumi ini? Hal *Kerajaan Allah* itu seumpama biji sesawi yg ditaburkan di tanah. Memang *biji itu yg paling kecil dari pada segala jenis benih yg ada di bumi.* Tetapi apabila ia ditaburkan, ia tumbuh dan menjadi *lebih besar dari segala sayuran yg lain.* *Mereka yg terkecil tetapi yg terbesar.* *Mereka satu sebab, "Setiap kerajaan yg terpecah-pecah pasti binasa dan setiap kota atau rumah tangga yg terpecah-pecah tidak dapat bertahan.* Mar.4:30-32, Luk.9: 48b, Mat.12:25 *Di atas batu karang ini (Petrus) Aku (Yesus) mendirikan jemaat-Ku (Gereja-Ku) dan alam maut tidak akan menguasainya. Kepadamu Petrus Kuberikan kunci Kerajaan Sorga. Apa yang kauikat di dunia ini akan terikat di sorga dan apa yg kaulepaskan di dunia ini akan terlepas di sorga. Dan Aku menyertai kamu senantiasa sampai kepada akhir zaman.* Mat.16:18b; 28:20b Engkau mengatakan mereka sempurna menjadi satu!?, tetapi bagaimana, jika di antara mereka ada yg tidak setia, dapatkah ketidaksetiaan itu membatalkan kesetiaan Allah? *Sekali-kali tidak!* Sebaliknya: *Allah adalah benar,* dan semua manusia pembohong, seperti ada tertulis: *Supaya Engkau ternyata benar dalam segala firman-Mu, dan menang, jika Engkau dihakimi.* Jika kini nyata bagi mu banyak penyesatan dan perpecahan, ingatlah perkataan-Ku: Tidak mungkin tidak akan ada penyesatan, tetapi celakalah orang yg mengadakannya. Siapa tidak bersama Aku, ia melawan Aku dan siapa tidak mengumpulkan bersama Aku, ia mencerai-beraikan. Rom3:3-4, Luk.17:1, Mat.12:30 Sebelum kembali pada Bapa di surga, tiga kali Aku berkata kepada kefas: *Simon anak Yohanes apakah engkau mengasihi Aku?, gembalakanlah domba-domba-Ku.* Aku memilih Petrus sebagai gembala domba-domba-Ku supaya mereka satu sampai akhir zaman. Sebab Firman-Ku adalah jalan, kebenaran dan hidup. Yoh.21:17, 14:6a Apa kamu juga adalah murid-Ku, domba-Ku? Jika ya, kamu harus menyangkal dirimu, memikul salib dan mengikuti Aku. Domba-domba lain, yg bukan dari kandang ini; domba-domba itu harus Kutuntun juga dan *mereka akan mendengarkan suara-Ku dan mereka akan menjadi satu kawanan dengan satu gembala.* Yoh.10:16 *Mana buktinya!! adakah Kerajaan imam-Mu di bumi ini?* sebab *Tidak Mungkin* mereka menjadi suatu Kerajaan di seluruh bumi, satu kawanan, satu gembala, ada sejak Engkau dan para rasul-Mu hingga kini sampai akhir zaman, terkecil dan terbesar. *Semua itu MUSTAHIL, karena hanya terwujud jika ENGKAU YESUS yg mendirikannya.* Sebab ada tertulis, Tuhan Allah akan mengaruniakan kepada-Nya takhta Daud, bapa leluhur-Nya, dan Ia akan menjadi raja sampai selama-lamanya dan Kerajaan-Nya tidak akan berkesudahan." Luk.1:31-33. Carilah, Google 🔍key words: *Negara terkecil di dunia.* Itulah Kerajaan-Ku, Percayalah kpd-Ku, *ikutlah Aku dan jangan takut.* Jikalau dunia membenci kamu, ingatlah bahwa ia telah lebih dahulu membenci Aku dari pada kamu.
