All GLORY, honor and praise belong to God. The word “GLORY” [Greek: “Doxazo”- to magnify, extol, praise] is applicable to GLORIFYING God. Christ manifests the Father and GLORIFIES the Father. The is said to be GLORIFIED IN CHRIST.

“Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven and said: “Father, the hour has come. GLORIFY YOUR SON, THAT YOU SON ALSO MAY GLORIFY YOU.”- John 17:1

Everything that God is and all that He does brings Glory to Him. God is GLORIFIED by His creation. He is GLORIFIED by His words. He is GLORIFIED by His plans. He is GLORIFYIED by choosing and saving His saints. He is GLORIFIED by all of His works.

Jesus Christ is GLORIFIED in heaven. He has fulfilled the laws and prophecies; He has defeated all enemies; and He has consummated the salvation of all of the elect of God. When Christ is said to be GLORIFIED it means that His intrinsic glory is made manifest; and it is brought to light. Believers are GLORIFIED only because they are in Christ.

“That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be GLORIFIED in you, and YOU IN HIM, according to the grace of our Lord God and the Lord Jesus Christ.” -2 Thess 1:12

It is important that Believers realize that they are saved ONLY BY the GRACE of GOD. They have faith to believe as a gift of God. This is so that no one should boast and minimize the GLORY of God. God chose His elect; He saved His elect; He GLORIFIES His elect because they are in Christ for HIS GLORY.

“For by grace you have been SAVED THROUGH FAITH, and THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES; it is the gift of God, NOT THE WORKS, LEST ANYONE SHOLD BOAST. For we are HIS WORKMANSHIP, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which GOD PREPARED BEFOREHAND that we should walk in them.” -Eph 2:8-9

My thoughts: God is working a huge ‘prophetic’ muscle in me for a few years now. He has shown me (pretty much my whole life- as far back as I can remember) that HE IS ONE AND ONLY ONE! NOT TWO, NOT THREE- BUT ONE! The bible never confused me in this arena, I just sorta knew (& grew in understanding) that the center and main message of the Bible was that Christ was our Almighty God and Everlasting Father, that He was the comforter, prince of peace and the ‘government’ (us His saved children) rested on HIS shoulders. -Isa 9:6

If you are an avid reader of mine, or a friend or family member you’ve heard me share this message of Isa 9:6 umpteen times. And let me tell you know I will continue to bring it up umpteen million more times till its engulfed your mind and heart so that mere man and religion cannot take it away from you. Nor can it continually confuse the masses into double mindedly believing a doctrine that glorifies a father sacrificing his son to bring salvation to the rest of his children. Much of that theology comes from religion that doesn’t understand how prophecy works. Most people seeking ‘prophecy’ are seeking gloom and doom and the END OF THE WORLD! (another whole topic for another day). Instead of understanding that all biblical prophecy is about JESUS CHRIST AS GOD. A God that isn’t partial about His children.

There’s a spoken word, then the manifestation and a growth of wisdom and stature that needs to come forth. Like unto you a child will be born, and you will call it son or daughter which in whom will grow into being a father or mother that will humble thy self and sacrifice thyself in order to bring eternal life to his/her children and his or her children’s children generation after generation. *Just an example of the wording working its way from a son to a father with all his/her roles and titles included but all in all, this is ONE person in the flesh to live- preach, teach, be and do great and mighty things, then die to bring an end to the flesh life and pass off the inheritance to his/her children. It’s all about Our Father giving us our Inheritance (all the promises of God). For as many as are the promises of God, in Christ they are [all answered] “Yes.” So through Him we say our “Amen” to the glory of God.- 2 Cor 1:20

Okay – that was a tiny tangent off of the blog at hand, but until we fully come into what the FAITH we continually say we have, we NEED to FULLY UNDERSTAND GRACE & the ONE and ONLY GOD that deserves our full-fledged DEVOTION AND GLORIFICATION.

Let me ask YOU, WHO ARE YOU GLORIFYING When you pray, worship etc.? Do you see one LORD and SAVIOR, or do you see 2 or 3? The whole point of salvation is to KNOW ONE TRUE GOD in all HIS roles! Do you? or is it religious confusion you still honor and GLORIFY?

Again, this is a huge ‘prophetic’ workout I will continue to exercise until we all come into the ONE TRUE FAITH and that is CHRIST! HE IS OUR FAITH!

Christ didn’t come here to perfect our religions, doctrines, theologies, eschatology’s, lives or world, He came to perfect our FAITH! I pray we all continue to grow in wisdom and stature just as Christ had too (and HE was God) Now that’s as humbling as it gets! May we learn from the best and allow this perfection of OUR FAITH continue to GLORIFY OUR ONE AND ONLY ALMIGHTY GOD, EVERLASTING FATHER, COMFORTER AND PRINCE OF PEACE! AND MAY WE BE THE ONLY ‘GOVENERNMENT’ THAT CONTINUES TO BRING GLORIFICATION TO HIM GENERATION AFTER GENERATION!! ❤

[looking away from all that will distract us and] focusing our eyes on Jesus, who is the Author and Perfecter of faith [the first incentive for our belief and the One who brings our faith to maturity], who for the joy [of accomplishing the goal] set before Him endured the cross, disregarding the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God [revealing His deity, His authority, and the completion of His work]. – Heb 12:2

All my Glorifying love for CHRIST, Diana ❤ xo

“Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the GARDEN OF EDEN to tend and keep it. And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat it you shall surely die.” -Gen 2:15-17

The GARDEN OF EDEN was created by God in the beginning when He created man. It was a park-like setting with no sin or curse of any kind. It is like a protected game reserved that is fenced, hedged, and guarded place. It was where Adam and Eve enjoyed being in His presence. When they disobeyed God and ate the forbidden fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the midst of the garden, Adam and Eve experienced spiritual death. this death was for them and all mankind.

“Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned. -Rom 5:12

God then drove Adam and Eve out of the GARDEN OF EDEN, to live in their fallen state for whatever time God had determined. If they were non-elect sinners, they would then go disembodied to the “torments” or “death” side of Sheol/Hades when they died. They would wait to be redeemed from their sin through forward looking faith in Jesus Christ, who would atone for the sins of all of His elect people (past and future) in 30ad.

“But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man’s offense many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by grace of on Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many (the elect).”- Rom 5:15

All mankind is spiritually dead because of Adam’s sin. They all must also experience physical death, so no one is able to live in this human life forever. However, Jesus Christ, (God in the flesh in the form of a son), has come and paid the penalty of death for His elect people. All of those, who are in Christ by faith, have died with Christ. They are brought back to life in heaven when they die physically due to His atoning death and resurrection for them.

“For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive.” – 1 Cor 15:21-22

-Michael Alan Nichols

______________________________________________________________________

My thoughts: The Garden represents our hearts completely reliant and fully trusting in God. It is a place that conventual people are in a healthy relationship with God by choice. God intervenes by invitation only. God does not force Himself on us. He freely offers us the choice of choosing Him or not choosing Him.

The ‘forbidden fruit’ was that of partaking in deception which hung on the tree of choice separate from God and His guidance. It represented a distrusting of God and becoming so independent and self-reliant that we chose to seek outside of God and found the knowledge of good and evil. There was only good until we chose (and choose) not to trust God completely. The tree of life is simply CHRIST who gives us life abundantly! -John 10:10

Until the time of Christ crucified on the cross, covenantal people were held in the good side of Sheol/Hades upon their physical death. After the crucifixion of Christ, the covenantal people (those that seek eternal life In Christ) go to heaven for eternity. Heaven isn’t so much a place, but a position in a REAL relationship with Christ. In HIM, with HIM and through HIM by choice not force. Healthy reciprocation is key in any good and loving relationship! ❤

Christ purchased our freedom and redeemed us from the curse of the Law and its condemnation by becoming a curse for us—for it is written, “CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO HANGS [crucified] ON A TREE (cross)”—Gal 3:13

See the death and resurrection are key components to the fulfilled prophecy of the dead sea scrolls and the Bible. There is no other reason for the Bible to ever had even existed except for to reveal (REVELATION) the testimony of Jesus Christ! It’s so very crucial that we stop adding to this and taking away from this revelation of Revelation!!

When we can call out HIS name, Jesus Christ as ABBA, then we understand the prophecy of the scriptures. And because you [really] are [His] sons, God has sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out, “Abba! Father!”-Gal 4:6

The reason there is so many names in OT and other religions is the actual anti-christ teachings attempt to “BLOT OUT HIS NAME” so to bring us back under the powers of law, sin and eternal death Making His atonement to no avail. We live in a world with evil governing entities that only exist due to man’s seeking of the dead tree of knowledge of good and evil. When we seek to know all things outside of the guidance of Christ, we fail to realize that the tree of life (The Christ) was risen for the purpose of setting us free from the evil government of the world and from all temptations of poor choices that lead to sin and the consequences of them simply by allowing Christ to be the center of our garden (heart) by renewing our minds in Christ.

AMONG THE [SPIRITUALLY] MATURE, however, we speak a message of wisdom—but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. No, we speak of the mysterious and hidden wisdom of God, which He destined for our glory before time began. None of the rulers of this age understood it. For if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. Rather, as it is written:

“No eye has seen,

no ear has heard,

no heart has imagined,

what God has prepared for those who love Him.”

But God has revealed it to us by the Spirit.

The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of man except his own spirit within him? So too, no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. We have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us. And this is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom, but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.

THE NATURAL MAN DOES NOT ACCEPT THE THINGS THAT COME FROM THE SPIRIT OF GOD. FOR THE ARE FOOLISHNESS TO HIM, AND HE CANNOT UNDERSTAND THEM, BECAUSE THEY ARE SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED. The spiritual man judges all things, but he himself is not subject to anyone’s judgment. “For who has known the mind of the Lord, so as to instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ. – Eph 1:15-23

All my mind of the LORD, ❤ Diana 🙂 xo

The Scriptures tell us about the time of the end, not the end of time! The Time of the end is the end of the Old Covenant Jewish age. The FULLNESS OF TIME does not refer to the “end of time”.

“But when the FULLNESS OF TIME had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive THE ADOPTION AS SONS. And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “ABBA FATHER!” Therefore you (Gentiles) are NO LONGER A SLAVE BUT A SON, and if a son, then an HEIR OF GOD THROUGH CHRIST.” – Gal 4:4-7

When the FULLNESS OF TIME had come in the first century AD, Jesus Christ, came in the flesh (born as a son) born to a woman, while the Old Testament Law was still in effect. He ministered to the Jews in Israel for three and one-half years from 26ad to 30ad. He proved that He was the promised Messiah and was God in the flesh. He showed that the “TIME OF THE END” for the Jewish age was near, at the door. – Matt 24:33

Christ fulfilled all of the laws of the Old Covenant system through His life, death, burial, resurrection and ascension in 30ad. He introduced the New Covenant spiritual gospel kingdom to the Jews. His New Covenant was one in which His people were identified by their faith in Christ. No longer were His people slaves to the law, but instead they were children of God and received the Holy Spirit in their hearts.

“that the dispensation of the FULLNESS OF TIMES He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth–in Him.”- Eph 1:10

This spiritual kingdom provided God’s grace and mercy for all of His elect, born-again believers. It was His New Covenant for His people (believing Jews and believing Gentiles). During this transition period) 33ad-66ad) their sins were atoned for, but their salvation was not fully consummated until He returned at His second coming Parousia in 66-70ad. At that time, He destroyed the “old heavens and old earth” of the Jewish religious system.

After 70ad all born-again believers in Christ are members of His New Covenant spiritual gospel kingdom by faith. This is the “new heavens and new earth” in which only righteousness dwells. All [Believers]who make up the new kingdom, have the Holy Spirit indwelling in them. They are all in Christ by faith and thus only righteousness dwells in the spiritual kingdom. As Apostle Paul wrote in late 64ad:

“Nevertheless, we, according to His promise, look for a new heaven and a new earth in which RIGHTEOUSNESS DWELLS.”- 2 Pet 3:13

-Michael Alan Nichols

_______________________________________________________________

My thoughts: As I am seeing a ton of deception going around – things like, sacred names movement, Torah observant, Sabbath keepers, Israel only crowd, extreme preterism, futuristic- dispensationalism, Christian nationalism, Christian Zionism, MAGA Trump worship, “Christian converting to Islam” Christians denouncing Christ, People still voting, People still desiring for the Law of Moses (10 commandments) to be plastered in court rooms and classrooms… And the deceptive list goes on, and on and on…All of this will help pave the way for Noahide laws aka: Old Testament legalism to be implemented once again because Spiritual Discernment is not being used. People are more worried about sins of others and desiring to be holier than thou instead of being concerned about spiritual salvation through Christ for themselves and others. They are falling back under deception and the tools of the enemy (the power of the law, sin and eternal death) making all that was defeated at the cross to no avail.

“You have been severed from Christ, if you seek to be justified [that is, declared free of the guilt of sin and its penalty, and placed in right standing with God] through the Law; you have fallen from grace [for you have lost your grasp on God’s unmerited favor and blessing].”- Gal 5:4

I will continue to preach the purity of Christ and will rebuke all that goes against the teachings of Christ and All that goes against the finished works of Christ!

Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and encourage with every form of patient instruction. – 2 Tim 4:2

As we see in this blog that those that have FAITH IN CHRIST AND HIS FINSHED WORKS ON THE CROSS, HAVE REDEMPTION & eternal life IN and with CHRIST! THERE IS NO SECRET NAME, NO SPEACIAL DAY TO WORSHIP, NO COMMANDMENTS TO KEEP IN ORDER TO BE SAVED! NO SPECIAL LINEAGE, NO SPECIAL NATION, NO SPECIAL PERSON (leaders) coming to “fix” things. it is by the Blood of the Lamb that we are saved! NOTHING MORE (adding too) & NOTHING LESS (taking away) from the FINISHED WORKS OF CHRIST!!! *The torah takes away, & the Quaran adds too The Book of life, that is Christ!

Let us not forget, “I testify and warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book [its predictions, consolations, and admonitions]: if anyone adds [anything] to them, God will add to him the plagues (afflictions, calamities) which are written in this book; and if anyone takes away from or distorts the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away [from that one] his share from the tree of life and from the holy city (new Jerusalem), which are written in this book.” -Rev 22:18 -19

CHRIST AND ONLY CHRIST FULLFILLS ALL THINGS! AND is the FULLNESS OF TIME~

It’s crucial that we as Christ believers understand that the world is NEVER GOING TO END. IT was the Old Covenant that would end, and it ended when God came here to become flesh and blood so that He would shed HIS blood upon the Cross to be the last sacrificial Lamb! No more animal sacrificial, religious system. He brought the Old Covenant religious system to AN END! Jews and Muslims desire is for us to stay the slave child instead of the free promised child! It is those two sects of religion that still to this day denies the price paid for their very own salvation, they desire the works of the law to be their payment, and for this they will be held to their rigid, self-righteous works for their salvation.

The Great Commision is not to bring others into the 10 commandments but to bring them into the Body of Christ for salvation and Eternal life!

Also note that the whole “anti-christ”- future messiah return – burning away the whole earth is all Jewish mysticism also believed by the Islamic faith! We need to rebuke these false ‘endtimes’ fallacies NOW in the NAME OF JESUS! Time to come out of the deception!!

We ought to be super cautious not to be so pious that we place ourselves back under the Law of Moses which was impossible to accomplish; hence the need for a savior, and that is JESUS CHRIST! THE NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES!

All my complete salvation upon Christ sacrificial LOVE<3 Diana 🙂 xo

God created man so that he can do what he “WILLS” to do. The problem is that man can only “will” the act to according to his nature and his strongest desire. The strongest desire of man is to go his own way and not God’s way. Man is a sinner, and his strongest desire is to choose selfishly and trust his own decisions. There are no exceptions. No one seeks after God.

“As is it written: THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NO, NOT ONE; there is none who understands; THERE IS NONE WHO SEEKS AFTER GOD. They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; THERE IS NONE WHO DOES GOOD, NO, NOT ONE. ” -Romans 3:10-12

When it comes to salvation, God first changes our desire by causing us to be born-again spiritually. We receive the Holy Spirit and our strongest desires change. We are then able to trust Christ as our Lord and Savior. This is something that we are incapable of doing until God changes us and gives us a new nature.

Jesus told Nicodemus: “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is BORN-AGAIN, he cannot see (understand) the kingdom of God.” -John 3:3

Jesus also said: “No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me DRAWS HIM: and I will raise him up at the last day. ” -John 6:44

Jesus further said: “Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been GRANTED TO HIM by My Father.” – John 6:65

So people act according to their nature. Until the nature is changed, they will not be able to act according to God’s Will, even to exercise faith in Christ. Therefore, God changes us and causes us to be born-again spiritually. We then have a new nature with a new spiritual life. As a result, we have new desires, which are consistent with our new life in Christ. Even though we are born-again believers and have secure salvation in Christ, we still make our choices in our life based upon our strongest desires.

That is why it is so important for Christians to faithfully study God’s Word; to grow in Christ; to pray continually; and to submit to Him. Without that we cannot know what His will for us is, even though we are believers. When we do those things, we supernaturally develop “strongest desires” that result in choices that are according to His will.

-Michael Alan Nichols

______________________________________________________________________

My thoughts: Free will is just that- to do our will freely; we DO NOT have to ask for God’s will, we DO NOT have to seek Him with all our hearts, will and emotions! We are Free to do as we please! But I would not suggest that nor encourage that. Free will emotions bring on freewilly desires that can put us in a bad situation or could harm others.

All things are lawful [that is, morally legitimate, permissible], but not all things are beneficial or advantageous. All things are lawful, but not all things are constructive [to character] and edifying [to spiritual life]. -1 Cor 10:23

Every evil we see in the world is an outcome of someone’s bad free will choice. God is not the author of evil but ONLY the author of Good!

The thief (anything or person that comes to steal, kill and destroy) comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows]. -John 10:10

If we truly do seek God from a pure heart towards Him, We SHALL SEE HIM FOR ALL THAT HE IS! Hence,(BE BORN AGAIN): “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.- Matt 7:7“Blessed [anticipating God’s presence, spiritually mature] are the pure in heart [those with integrity, moral courage, and godly character], for they will see God.- Matt 5:8

!~(oh and by the way, when I say God, I’m always referring to JESUS! ALWAYS! I am not a ‘christian’ that separates God ‘the Father, God ‘the Son’ nor God ‘the Holy Spirit!’ They are ONE BEING IN THREE ROLES unto complete prophecy~! (and I don’t mean as in the ‘Trinity’ as it has been so terribly taught to the churches)!

Let me explain further: I understand that Jesus in His flesh suit for 33 years was God (coming into the world to pay the penalty of all our sins and to bring us back into a healthy relationship with Him (Abba Father) – doing away with all religious and ritual ways to Him. He came (as a son), walked in Faith, grew in Stature, died to shed His blood (defeated sin), rose again (defeated spiritual death), and ascended to His rightful position (defeated the power of the law) and then sent unto us (His new temple) the helper (Holy Spirit) to proclaim forever His GLORIES for generation after generation without END!! We are now called to rule and reign in Christ as His new temple- we are the very walking return of Christ, performing miracles, signs and wonders for Christ! And these signs will accompany those who believe: In My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18 They will pick up snakes with their hands, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not harm them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will be made well.” – Mark 16:18

He, (Jesus) was the prophecy of Isa 9:6 being fulfilled. God (the Father) had to provide the BLOOD sacrifice ON HIS VERY OWN; so He came as a son, just as prophesized!

For to us a Child shall be born, to us a Son shall be given; And the government shall be upon His shoulder, And His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. – Isa 9:6

I pray people stop adding to the prophecy of Christ as Revelation is simply the TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST! the REVELATION IS HIM!! I also pray people stop attempting to explain this simple and complete prophecy away due to a deception that has been taught in the churches for centuries. It is an outcome of the Church leaving their first LOVE and attaching themselves to an adulterous doctrine! I will REBUKE it every time!

I Truly believe that when we can finally call out to JESUS as “ABBA FATHER” Then we will understand and be truly BORN-AGAIN! To be Born of ONE true GOD and ONE TRUE GOD ONLY- AND HIS NAME IS CHRIST!

*ps. and I know so many in the carnal flesh thinking will say “oh did Jesus pray to Himself, and was He calling Himself Father?”, and my answer is AN UNDENIABLE YES! Jesus EMPTIED HIMSELF TO BE A HUMBLE SERVENT TO FULFILL ALL THE THINGS of the Scriptures! I pray we stop allowing the carnal flesh to keep us in bondage to the separation of Christ! Come completely into the fulfilled prophecy of Christ! The bible is simply HIS-STORY! You search and keep on searching and examining the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and yet it is those [very Scriptures] that testify about Me’- John 5:39

All my seeking HIM & HIS WILL ONLY, ❤ Diana xo 🙂

Adam was the first man created by God. He was the representation of all men going forward in human history. God gave Adam instructions to enjoy the Garden of Eden that God created. But Adam had only one condition that God gave to him. He was not to eat of the “tree of knowledge of good and evil”. *(I’m Not sure I believe that Adam was the first man; however, I do believe that Adam walked in relationship with God and named all of Gods other creatures (the animals)- Will share more thoughts on that when my brain aligns better.)

“Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it. And the Lord god commanded the man, saying “of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but the tree of THE TREE OF KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL YOU SHALL NOT EAT, for in that day you eat of it YOU SHALL SURELY DIE.”- Gen 2:15-17

But the serpent deceived Eve and she ate the forbidden fruit of the tree. She also gave its fruit to Adam, and he ate it. Thus, the sinfulness of man was manifested for all mankind throughout human history.

“Then the serpent said to woman (Eve), “You will surely not die. For God knows that in the day you eat it of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” So, when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband (Adam) with her, and HE ATE.” -Gen 3:4-6

Adam was the federal head of mankind, as Jesus Christ is the federal head of the redeemed. Adam possessed all that was necessary to continue without failing, yet he fell. He disobeyed God. Thus, spiritual and physical death and condemnation passed on to all humans by the imputation of Adam’s sin and guilt to mankind.

“As it is written, ‘There is NONE RIGHTEOUS, NO, NO ONE; there is none who understands; there is NONE WHO SEEKS AFTER GOD. They have ALL turned aside; they have together become unprofitable; THER IS NONE WHO DOES GOOD, NO, NO ONE.'”- Rom 3:10-12

“Therefore, just as though one man (Adam) sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus DEATH SPREAD TO ALL MEN, BECAUSE ALL SINEED.” -Rom 5:12

The good news is that because of Jesus Christ and His Righteous atonement, justification of life by faith in Christ has come as the free gift for His elect.

“Therefore, as through one man’s (Adam) offense JUDGEMENT CAME TO ALL MEN, RESULTING IN CONDEMNATION, even so through one Man’s (Christ) righteous act of free gift came to all (elect) men, resulting in JUSTIFICATION OF LIFE.” -Rom 5:18

See: Isa 53:12; Matt 1:21; 26-28; Mark 13:20; Titus 1:1; Heb 9:28; 1 Pet 1:2

*Struggling with brain fog today, will share thoughts later or on another day.

**Okay, it’s been over a week and my thoughts on ‘was Adam the first man?’ is still not complete. I do know though that it’s unimportant to have all “knowledge” into all the specifics of every story in scriptures.

See, I know the scriptures are stories of the people that walked with God and the prophets, disciples and apostles that spoke all words given to them to speak of. I think it’s really important to ONLY speak words inspired through the HOLY SPIRIT (the third ROLE of God) given unto us. If we don’t speak only out of this HOLY SPIRIT inspired KNOWING as opposed to the Knowing of the world and our fleshly instincts, then we will only continue to contribute to the confusion of the masses. knowing this first, that no prophecy of scripture is of private interpretation. The prophecy came not by the will of man in the ancient times, but when holy men of God spoke, being compelled by the Holy Spirit. -2 Pet 1:20-21

I KNOW GOD! I’ve come heart to heart with Christ! I do NOT need a religion nor a Pastor/Preacher/Priest/Rabbi nor Prophet to teach me of the words and ways of God.

I know HIS logos word (the written inspired scriptures) and I personally KNOW HIS RHEMA word (The true knowing of WHO HE IS through A POWERFUL, PASSIONATE, FAITHFUL RELATIONSHIP with HIM!) NO person nor bogus doctrine/theology/eschatology will ever take what I have with ABBA! God and HIS plan is complete IN JESUS! I need nothing more and I settle for nothing less! HE is my everything. My life, my love my whole complete being is WITH HIM, THROUGH HIM and IN HIM! ❤

I have been crucified with Christ [that is, in Him I have shared His crucifixion]; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body I live by faith [by adhering to, relying on, and completely trusting] Jesus, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. – Gal 2:20

All religions see Him as a prophet or a liar but do not know HIM as the very perfect redemption. This includes ‘christians’ they too are waiting for a fleshly return to save us from the wicked ways of the world, they too are saying HIS grace IS NOT SUFFICIENT for them. -2 Cor 12:9

The whole future ‘return of Christ’ has been sold to us via the Muslim end times theology- which is nothing short of the same lies the unredeemed Jews believe! See both jews and Muslims (supposed line of Abraham) deny that Christ is our Messiah and did die for our sins to give us forgiveness and salvation, therefore they are antichrist (against the one true God Christ). They answered and said to Him, “Our father is Abraham”; Jesus says to them, “If you were children of Abraham, the works of Abraham you were doing; “But now, behold, you are seeking to kill me; I am a man who have spoken the truth with you, which I have heard from God; this Abraham did not do.”- John 8:39-40

There really is no other way around it. WE eighter believe He was who He said He was, He did what He said He did, and He meant what He said, and said what He meant, or we are calling HIM a liar! “Let God be found true, but every man a liar. As it is written, “That you might be justified in your words…”- Rom 3:4

We must take caution with what we choose free willingly to believe. Just as Adam and Eve free willingly chose to NOT TAKE GOD at HIS WORD and allowed themselves to be deceived by being drawn away by their own lust, we too can choose to go our own way by being enticed away by our own lust and NOT TAKE GOD AT HIS WORD. We either study ourselves approved by God so that we are not PUT TO SHAME for not rightly dividing the WORD OR TRUTH! JESUS is the WORD OF TRUTH because JESUS is both the WORD made Flesh in CHRIST OUR MESSIAH (LORD & SAVIOR) that died for us, shed HIS blood as the payment for all who choose to believe, and HE is also ALL TRUTH and NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH SO HELP US GOD!! ❤

Carefully study to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needed not to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth. – 2 Tim 2:15

All my WITH HIM, THROUGH HIM and IN HIM, ❤ Diana xo 🙂
