Jesus Man of sorrows
Posted : 19 Sep, 2011 05:27 PM
JESUS HAd "blah days" In fact most likely EVERY day was close to what the WORLD would call a BLAH day, he carried the SORROW of his people in him. Knowing that HE Was the Foutnain of livign water they reject, the BREAD of LIFE they reject, for there own LIFE, HE was the was the LIGHT, that the WORLD of Darkness did not want. HE was a man of SORROWS, takign the sins and punishment of his people adn they will STILL reject him, they will still say "may his blood be on our hands" knowign they would reject him, and curse him, HE died and took there punishment anyway.
"All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying," Psalm 22:7
"He was despised, and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and as one from whom men hide their face he was despised; and we esteemed him not." Isaiah 53:3
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often have I desired to gather your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing!" Luke 13:34
"Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me." Matthew 26:38
YET
"..it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he has put him to grief: ...Isaiah 53:10
The FATHER took pleasure in Bruising, breaking his son.
SO WHY not US? are we MORE special then the ONLY BEGOTTEN? Do WE get special treatment now? OR are we JESUS BODY. are We to be ONE with JESUS? YES! We are not only HIS WIFE, the BRIDE OF CHRIST to be ONE FLESH, SPIRIT, AND SOUL(Mind) with HIM, but TO be conformed in HIS imamge, and BECOME a SON of GOD. the BRIDE msut FIRST become ONE IN CHRIST, and THEN the SONS can be born. YOu cant overcoem Temptation, and SIN becasue you are NOT married with JESUS, in his sorrows, in his suffering, you have NO fellowship in his suffering becasue you treat Sorrow, and sufferign, and meeknes, with contempt. the FLESH doesnt ever want to suffer, Truth, but we are to NOT live, and walk in the FLESH no longer but put to DEATH the Deeds of the flesh, and walk in SPIRIT.
What ever is not of FAITH is SIN. and ONLY what is done in faith Please GOD. And the CARNAL disspleases GOD, so CARNAL must not be of FAITH. We MUST Suffer as CHRIST suffered, not to seek after it, but to NOT avoid it, to NOT look at it in contempt. Christ learned throug hwhat he suffered, adn he was a MAN of Sorrows, and he GREW in wisdom...and WISDOM coems from FEAR of the LORD, which JESUS had 100% never doing anything in and of himself. And THAT was an example for US. DENY YOU. Submit to HIM. Fellowship in HIS sufferings.
Romans 8:17
And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
2 Corinthains 1:5
"For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation(comfort) also abounds by Christ.
1 Peter 2:21
"To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps."
1 Peter 4:1
"Forasmuch then as Christ suffered in the flesh, arm ye yourselves also with the same mind; for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;
1 Peter 4:13
"But rejoice, inasmuch as you are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, you may be glad also with exceeding joy."
Philippians 3:10
"That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable to his death
Suffering IS the fellowship we belong to. Suffering in resisting from SIN,
1 Corinthains 10:3
"There has no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it."
James 4:7
"Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."
And Dying to our desires. When a MAN dies he has ceased from Sin. We MUST die in order to be made ONE with our husband, a WIFE is submitted to her husband. WE must be Submitted to JESUS. not to SELF.
1 Corinthains 15:34
Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
No COnforming to JESUS CHRIST who IS our righteousness, with OUT Submission and death to out lives. if WE live as WE are GODS, then WE have NO inheretence. If WE do not OBEY JEsus HIS words found i nthe gospels, and aply them walk i nthem, Which IS building our house on ROCK, If we dont do this, we HAVE no POWER with GOD, we have Worldly enthusiasm, we have our lives on this earth, we have the illusion of what man calls "happyness" but we Have NO inheretence.
Suffering, Sorrow, denial of our will, submitting ourselves FULLY to the authority of Jesus Christ. THERE in lies the secret, to a HOLY life, being selfless. If WE Want JESUS we must give SELF up. If we want a GODLY life there WILL be persecution. If there isnt persecution, then maybe you need to re examine where your faith is.
There is no spiritual growth in one who walks after the flesh, and SELF. there is no Santification, and holyness, for those who treat the sufferings of Chrst Jesus with contempt, and treat the submisive attitude, and humility, and meekness, of JESUS as a pariah. WALK in CHRIST sufferings, in flesh, resistign sin, and of persecution from the holyness being made manifest in you. BE LIKE JESUS. HE died for YOU to make that possible to BE his wife, his body, ONE with him, in him. and HIM in you. SEEK after his sufferings, SEEK after his holynes, SEEK after HIM, to WIN HIM, to KNOW HIM. PAUL continued to KNOW HIM until he died. NEVER STOP. if you think you have Arived at where you should be you are deceived adn in need of repetnace. SEEK HIS HUMITLY and WEEKNESS. becasue in YOUR weekness, CHRIST JESUS is STRONG. Don't walk in YOU, carnal, self, Walk in HIM spirit, selflessness. Christs DEATH is LIFE. Submit to the confirmation of HIS death. ONLY then can you becoem a SON> only then can the SPIRIT lead you instead of CARNAL. SEEK JESUS and ONLY JESUS. and to BE his sufferings. HE loves you, GOD loves you, and it PLEASES him to bruise YOU too. it builds Wisdom, and knowledge. Cant Know JESUS without it. LIFE is about HIM, Not you. SEEK HIM. SEK the Man of sorrows, and to be conformed to HIS IMMAGE, HIS example. THERE is the riches, of his Glory, there is the Tressures of Heaven.
