LET US STUDY THE BIBLE TOGETHER TODAY - JOHN 8


LET US STUDY THE BIBLE TOGETHER TODAY (JOHN 8)

John 8

King James Version (KJV)

8 Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.

2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.

3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,

4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.

5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?

6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.

7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.

9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

13 The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true.

14 Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.

15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.

16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.

17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.

18 I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.

19 Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also.

20 These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.

21 Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come.

22 Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.

23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.

24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.

25 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.

26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.

27 They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.

28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.

29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.

30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.

31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;

32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

33 They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?

34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.

35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.

36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

37 I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.

38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.

39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.

40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.

41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.

42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.

43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.

44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.

46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?

47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.

48 Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?

49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me.

50 And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.

51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.

52 Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death.

53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?

54 Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:

55 Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying.

56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.

57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?

58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

VS 1 Jesus Christ went unto the mount of Olives.

It is significant that Jesus Christ went to the mount.

(Most times, when we talk about going to the mount when we mean going to spend time with God alone in prayer, reading the word of God and fasting)

Jesus Christ chose a quiet place “Mount of Olives”

We need time to recover from any activity
We need time to hear from God
We need time to search the scriptures
We need time and a quiet environment devoid of distraction as Christians

Vs 2 Early in the morning He came again to the temple.
All the people came unto him
He sat and taught them

It is good to be an early riser.
Spend time with God again and again
Accommodate others
Let people come to you
Teach others what you learn from God.

Vs 3-5 A woman was acussed
Vs 6 They also tempted Jesus Christ – So that they may accuse Him too
Jesus Christ ignored them. – You must not answer to everything especially when you understand the motive of the question or suspect a wrong motive associated with the question.
Seek God’s council.

VS 7 When they continued asking Him:
People who put pressure on you do not stop, they continue.
-          God gives the wisdom to deal with them.

Jesus Christ asked them “If you have no sin cast the first stone”

Do not accuse others. Remember that you also need to be forgiven by God.
Vs 8 He ignored them
Vs 9 They were convicted by their own conscience
Vs 10-11 Jesus Christ encouraged the woman and told her to go and SIN NOMORE
“Neither do I condemn thee: go and sin nomore”

Vs 12 Jesus Christ is the Light of the world.
Jesus Christ said : He that followeth me shall not walk in darkness but shall have the light of life.
Vs 16 Jesus Christ is not alone. Jesus Christ is with God the father.
Vs 19 If you know Jesus Christ you have known the father.
Vs 20 Jesus Christ taught in the temple.
We must teach in the temple. Our body is the temple of God. We must be holy. Let Jesus Christ teach us so that we can teach. The Church is the body of Christ. Iron sharpeneth iron. The Church must be a teaching Church; teaching the word or God ie the word or truth. Jesus Christ taught in the temple. The disciples of Jesus Christ have 5to teach in the temple.
Vs 21 Sin kills
Vs 23 Jesus Christ is from above.
VS 26 Jesus Christ only says what God asks Him to say.
Let our words be few.
Hear from God first , pray and read the Bible before you speak. Speak more to God so that when you speak it shall be effective.
VS 28 God taught Jesus Christ- We need a teachable spirit. We have to allow God to teach us. We have to allow Jesus Christ to teach us.  This may require that we have to leave our old ways and habits.  
Vs 29 God is with Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ does His will.
The Will of God.
Vs 30 Many believed on Him
Vs 31 To the believers : If you continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed.
Vs 32 And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.
Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life.
-          Sin is a bondage
VS 34 Whosoever committed sin is the servant of sin

Vs 35 Jesus Christ is the son of God and came to set us free.

Vs 36 Jesus Christ is the Son of God and came to set us free.

Vs 37 They seek to kill Jesus Christ because His word has no place in them.
Vs 42 If God is your Father you will love Jesus Christ - because He came from God
Vs 44 People who do bad things make devil their father. They tell lies and kill.
Vs 47 He that is of God hears God’s words
Vs 49 Jesus Christ honours God
Vs 50 Jesus Christ does not seek His own glory
We should learn from that and seek the glory of God always.
Vs 51 Jesus Christ said ”Verily, Verily I say unto you if a man keep my sayings, he shall never see death ”
Vs 54 Let God honour you. God honoured Jesus Christ.
When you honour yourself it is nothing.
Vs 55 Jesus Christ knows God and keeps His sayings
Vs 58 Verily Verily , I say unto you , Before Abraham was, I am – said Jesus Christ
This means that Jesus Christ has always been from the beginning with God the Father.
Vs 59 They wanted to stone Jesus Christ, He hid Himself, went out of the temple , went through the midst of them and so passed by.

JESUS CHRIST LOVES US VERY MUCH



YOU ARE UNIQUE
 YOU AR MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD.
WE ARE ALL HUMAN
WE ALL HAVE THINGS IN COMMON
WE ALSO HAVE INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES THAT DIFFERENCIATE US FROM EACH OTHER.
WE ARE PECULIAR
THESE ARE ALL BESIC FACTS.
YOU ARE NOT REALLY DIFFERENT FROM OTHERS
YOU ARE NOT BETTER THAN OTHERS
YOU ARE NOT WORSE THAN OTHERS

What a paradox

All have sinned and come short of the glory of God
We are all saved by grace lest any man should boast.

So no matter how good you may appear to be ( remember that our righteousness is like a filthy rag before God  )

On the other hand, no matter how bad you may think you have become, remember that ( all sins shall be forgiven you except the sin against the Holy Ghost.) Just come as you are  to Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ died to save us from our sins.

Humble yourself and come to Jesus Christ.
He will take responsibility for your heavenly destination in this journey of life.

With Jesus Christ in your heart Heaven is sure.
For where He is, there you will be also.
Jesus Christ has paid the price.
Salvation is free but not cheap.
It cost Jesus Christ His very life.

A sacrifice pure and holy and acceptable to God; a ransom for many.

An atonement for our sins.

Let us accept His grace and offer, now that there is time. Today is the day of salvation. Tomorrow may be too late. For there is no repentance in the grave.

All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.

Jesus Christ said “Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy leaden and I will give you rest.

Jesus said “Take my yoke for my yoke is light”

Cast your cares on Christ for He cares for you and I and for us all.

Salvation is by faith not of works lest any man should boast.

When you are saved you are safe. If you are not, then you are not.
Beware and be warned and be aware!!!

When you are saved, you surrender your will to God and allow His will in your life.

This is a test of salvation. Man is free to choose between his ways or God’s ways. When you choose your ways, you do your will and the result is limited to and by your ability.

When you come to the realization that there are things you can not do. When you acknowledge your limits and limitations, when you acknowledge your sins and ask God for help he is only too eager to come to your rescue. That is salvation.

There is no other way by which man can be saved but through our Lord Jesus Christ. When you give God a chance in your life to save you, you have to let Him do it, His own way.

That is when you let go and let Him. That is when you surrender your will to the almighty God through Jesus Christ our Lord and savior.

Remember that God’s will; will be done. So when you start doing the will of God, all limitations are removed. You begin to understand the purpose of all that God allows. You now start living a victorious life in Christ. Your will and His will become one. You delight in His words, precepts and commandments. You desire to obey and please God through Jesus Christ our Lord who strengthens you.  

At this stage, you do His will and His blessings for you are sure and assured; because they are already ordained.

The way of salvation is the way of obedience. The way of salvation is the way of trust, faith and believe in God and in our Lord Jesus Christ who came to save us from our sins.

This means total surrender to the will of God.

Now why would somebody do such a thing?
Rationally it is unlikely.
However;
God is faithful   
God never fails
God is able to deliver those who trust in Him.
When you know whom God is, it makes it easier to trust Him.

Have a closer walk with God and you will realize that trusting God is the most rational thing to do.

When you travel by air, land or sea and someone else is responsible for the flight or navigation or journey; your safety does not necessarily depend on whether you choose to sleep or keep awake throughout the journey. Once the pilot or driver or navigational team and the vehicle or plane takes of and arrives safely, you are safe.

As a rational man you wouldn’t entrust your safety to a drunk driver because of the attendant risk, or an untrained pilot. However once you are convinced that the vehicle and the pilot or driver are good, you will be happy to make the journey in the vehicle.

In the same way, when you know God you can trust God.

While in motion, as the journey progreses, you are safe as long a you remain in the vehicle. If you leave the vehicle for any reason, you are on your own and you do so at your own risk and the driver or the pilot or even the vehicle cannot do anything about it.

In the same way when you know God, and you give God a chance to save you and direct you and control your life, through Jesus Christ our Lord, you must remain in Him. You must surrender you’re your will to Him. You must take up His will . You must make His will yours.

You must abide in Him and He in you, then you can bear much fruit. These are called the fruits of the spirit.

When you are saved, stay in Christ and the character of Christ will be formed in you.

JESUSCHRIST LOVES THE FAMILY. LETUS GIVE THANKS TO GOD ALWAYS


Matthew 19

King James Version (KJV)

19 And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these sayings, he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judaea beyond Jordan;

2 And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.

3 The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?

4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,

5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?

8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.

9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

10 His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with his wife, it is not good to marry.

11 But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given.

12 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

13 Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them.

14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

15 And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.

16 And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?

17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,

19 Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

20 The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet?

21 Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.

22 But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.

23 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.

24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

25 When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?

26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

27 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?

28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

29 And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

30 But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.
WHAT HAPPENS IN HEAVEN WHEN WE PRAY?



This is one of the nicest e-mails I have seen :

I dreamt that I went to Heaven and an angel was showing me around. We walked side-by-side inside

a large workroom filled with angels. My angel guide stopped in front of the first section and said, 'This

is the Receiving Section. Here, all petitions to

God said in prayer are received.

I looked around in this area, and it was terribly

busy with so many angels sorting out petitions

written on voluminous paper sheets and

scraps from people all over the world.

Then we moved on down a long corridor

until we reached the second section.

The angel then said to me, "This is the

Packaging and Delivery Section. Here, the

graces and blessings the people asked for

are processed and delivered to the living

persons who asked for them." I noticed again

how busy it was there. There were many

angels working hard at that station, since

so many blessings had been requested and

were being packaged
for delivery to Earth.

Finally at the farthest end of the long

corridor we stopped at the door of a very

small station. To my great surprise, only one

angel was seated there, idly doing nothing.

"This is the Acknowledgment Section, my

angel friend quietly admitted to me. He

seemed embarrassed.
"How is it that there is no work going on

here? I asked."

"So sad," the angel sighed. "After people

receive the blessings that they asked for,

very few send back acknowledgments."

"How does one acknowledge God's blessings?

"I asked.

"Simple," the angel answered. Just say,

"Thank you, Lord."

"What blessings should they acknowledge?"

I asked.

"If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes

on your back, a roof overhead and a place to

sleep you are richer than 75% of this world.
If you have money in the bank, in your wallet,

and spare change in a dish, you are among

the top 8% of the world's wealthy, and if you

get this on your own computer, you are

part of the 1% in the world who has that

opportunity."

"If you woke up this morning with more

health than illness.. You are more blessed

than the many who will not even survive

this day."

"If you have never experienced the fear in

battle, the loneliness of imprisonment,

the agony of torture, or the pangs of

starvation... You are ahead of 700 million

people in the world."

"If you can attend a church without the

fear of harassment, arrest, torture or

death you are envied by, and more

blessed than, three billion people

in the world."

"If your parents are still alive and still

married.... you are very rare."

"If you can hold your head up and smile,

you are not the norm, you're unique to all

those in doubt and despair......."

"Ok," I said. "What now? How can I start?"

The Angel said, "If you can read this

message, you just received a double

blessing in that someone was thinking

of you as very special and you are more

blessed than over two billion people in

the world who cannot read at all."

Have a good day, count your blessings,

and if you care to, pass this along to remind

everyone else how blessed we all are..........

ATTN: Acknowledge Dept.
"Thank you Lord, for giving me the ability to

share this message and for giving me so many wonderful people with whom to share it."

If you have read this far, and are thankful for

all that you have been blessed with, how

can you not send it on?
I thank God for everything, especially all

my family and friends.
