Future tense, a shall be, a will be, so the verse says you will be complete, perfect and mature, and the future came quickly..
Luke 22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
Yes the promise came within three years of the Apostles first meeting Christ:
Acts 1:4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
Acts 2:33Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.
Obviously they never received the promise, these evil deceivers, they cannot clain they received the promise as they confess they never are complete in him never received the promise of the Holy Ghost. The process is the dying and rising of the Lord redeeming us to God shedding of the Holy Spirit and then converted and strengthened with might..
Jesus says here, to not resist evil(overcome evil with good) to love our enemies to be the children of God who is good to the just and to the unjust:..Romans 12:20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
"here is an additionally important point in this verse. The verb tense used in Matthew 5:48 is a future tense form. It is a “shall be” or a “will be.” So in essence this verse says, “You will be complete as your heavenly Father is complete.”
Yes, this verse is a command, and a promise. Can you see it now?
Obviously, none of us will be truly complete or perfected until we reach heaven. But right here, right now, we can most certainly be in the process of becoming complete and mature, right? And we can certainly be in our intended functions, living, loving and doing life within the plan that God has laid out for us.
What Jesus does here is set a standard (imitating God) and He reveals to us a pathway towards that (we work on being complete and mature). It’s a lifelong process, but it is something we are more than capable of doing through the strength and grace that God gives us.
He is telling us that one day, we will be perfectly complete, whole, and mature – finished vessels so to speak. And we get there by working on our maturity today in the here and now. When we are doing the very best we can to be the women God creates us to be, the burden of perfection is entirely lifted off of our shoulders."
Matthew 5:39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
40 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.
41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
One day whole in the whole armour of God, well put it on or be without, to withstand the evil of the devil, a vessel meet for masters use now, the best people can do is altogether vanity..
2 Timothy 2:21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.
Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Ephesians 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
Psalm 39:5 Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.
Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Colossians 1:29 Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.
Matthew 18:10-14: Jesus said, �Two men went up to the temple to **PRAY**, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee {Like Adam7777} stood up and **PRAYED** about himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men�robbers, evildoers, adulterers�or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.' But the tax collector stood at a distance, He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, '**GOD, HAVE MERCY ON ME, A SINNER**'!!.'"I tell you that this man rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted!�
Matthew 4:4: Jesus says, "Man does not live on bread alone, but on **EVERY WORD FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD**!"
I John 1:6: Whoever claims to live in Him **MUST** LIVE AS JESUS DID**!!
John 15:12: Jesus says, "**MY COMMAND** is this: Love each other **AS I HAVE LOVED YOU**!!"
Matthew 5:48: Jesus says, "Be perfect **AS YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER IS PERFECT**!!"
Every born from above saint will try to obey the above three New Covenant commands with all their heart. However, it is obvious that God's saints will fall short of completely obeying the above two commands of God!!!
While Adam7777 claims to be sinless and **PERFECT** it is interesting to note that Adam7777 has **SEPARATED** from his wife and therefore has not been a **PERFECT SINLESS HUSBAND**!! For God's word states in Matthew 19:5,6: Jesus says, "A man shall leave his father and mother and be united to his wife and they shall become one flesh, they are no longer two, but one flash. Therefore what God has joined together let no man {Like Adam7777} separate!!"
And so if Adam7777's separated wife is a Christian they are both living continually in sin for we are commanded to forgive our brother or sister or wife in Christ not 7 times but 70 times 7 times! And if Adam7777 married an unsaved woman it is also terrible sin in the NT!!
I John 1:3-10: We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you may have fellowship with us... We write this to make **OUR JOY COMPLETE**. This is the message we have heard **FROM HIM** and declare to you: If we claim to be without sin {Like Adam7777}, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. **IF WE CONFESS OUR SINS**, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned {Like Adam7777} we make Him out to be a liar and **HIS WORD IS NOT IN US**!
Luke 11:1-4: The **DISCIPLES** asked Jesus, "Lord teach as to pray." Jesus replied **TO HIS DISCIPLES**, "When you pray, say: '**FATHER**, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come. Give us each day our **DAILY** bread. **FORGIVE US OUR SINS**, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us!'"
Matthew 4:4: Jesus says, "Man shall live by **EVERY WORD** that comes from the mouth of God!"
James 5:16: **CONFESS YOUR SINS** to each other and pray for each other!!
Psalm 38:18: David said, "I **CONFESS MY SIN**; I am troubled by **MY SIN**!"
Daniel 9:20: Daniel said, "While I was speaking and praying, **CONFESSING MY SIN**!"
Revelation 3:19: Jesus says, "Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline, so be earnest and **REPENT**!!" {**OF YOUR SINS**!!}
Hebrews 12:5-11: Do not make light of the Lord's discipline, and do not lose heart when He rebukes you, because the Lord disciplines those He loves, and He chastens **EVERYONE** HE ACCEPTS AS A SON**!!! Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as His children. For what children are not disciplined by their father {FOR THEIR SINS**}? If you are not disciplined--and everyone undergoes discipline--**THEN YOU ARE NOT LEGITIMATE**, not true sons and daughters at all. Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us{FOR OUR SINS!} and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live! They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in His holiness. No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it!
Since Adam7777 claims that he **NO LONGER SINNED** the moment he was saved; he completely disagrees with the above 3 passages from the inspired Words of God. And since he believes he was completely perfect when he was saved there is no reason for him to want **ETERNAL HEAVENLY REWARDS** for faithful and loving service.
**HOWEVER, GOD'S WORD COMPLETELY DISAGREES WITH HIM**!!
Matthew 16:27: Jesus says, "For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father's glory with His angels and **THEN** He will **REWARD** each person according to what they have done!"
Matthew 5:11,12: Jesus says, �Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your **REWARD** **IN HEAVEN**!�
I Corinthians 9:24-27: Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes in to strict training. They do it to get a **CROWN** that will not last; but we do it to get a **CROWN THAT WILL LAST FOREVER**! Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize!
Luke 11:33,34: Jesus says, "Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a **TREASURE** IN HEAVEN** that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your **TREASURE** is, there your **HEART** will be also!"
2 Corinthians 5:9,10: We make it our goal to please Him... for we must all appear before the Judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or ***BAD***.
Luke 18:19 and Mark 10:18; Jesus says, "No on is good except God alone!" Those who are born from above do many good works that will be **ETERNALLY REWARDED** but only God is good **ALL THE TIME**. The sins a believer does will also be deducted from their **ETERNAL REWARDS** especially if the believer does not repent and ask forgiveness for some of his sins that he knows are sins.
There are about 400 commandments in the New Covenant and a young believer will not know a lot of these 400 NT commands and James 4:17 says: If anyone knows the good they ought to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them!!
There are some believers like the thief on the cross who will not have time to do many good works and may not receive any **ETERNAL REWARDS** even though they will be saved!
1 Corinthians 3:13-15: His work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each man's work. If what he has built survives, he will receive his **REWARD**. If it is burned up he will suffer loss; **HE HIMSELF WILL BE SAVED**, but only as one escaping through the flames.
littledavid we know you are a hypocrite, you say to provide strong testimony, you are answered directly and have been answered daily on every thing and have had nothing to say, you are the name caller and you still do deny the right ways of the Lord and provide empty deceit that is full of woodworm and wormwood..
Revelation 8:11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
Future tense, a shall be, a will be, so the verse says you will be complete, perfect and mature, and the future came quickly..
Luke 22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
Yes the promise came within three years of the Apostles first meeting Christ:
Acts 1:4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
Acts 2:33Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.
Obviously they never received the promise, these evil deceivers, they cannot clain they received the promise as they confess they never are complete in him never received the promise of the Holy Ghost. The process is the dying and rising of the Lord redeeming us to God shedding of the Holy Spirit and then converted and strengthened with might..
Jesus says here, to not resist evil(overcome evil with good) to love our enemies to be the children of God who is good to the just and to the unjust:..Romans 12:20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.

"here is an additionally important point in this verse. The verb tense used in Matthew 5:48 is a future tense form. It is a “shall be” or a “will be.” So in essence this verse says, “You will be complete as your heavenly Father is complete.”
Yes, this verse is a command, and a promise. Can you see it now?
Obviously, none of us will be truly complete or perfected until we reach heaven. But right here, right now, we can most certainly be in the process of becoming complete and mature, right? And we can certainly be in our intended functions, living, loving and doing life within the plan that God has laid out for us.

47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
One day whole in the whole armour of God, well put it on or be without, to withstand the evil of the devil, a vessel meet for masters use now, the best people can do is altogether vanity..
2 Timothy 2:21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.
Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Ephesians 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
Psalm 39:5 Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.
Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Colossians 1:29 Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.
Ephesians 3:16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
Colossians 1:11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
prophetic is the example of denial and of poor substitution for the sincerity of Christ, I do not need to say I am sinless or even be sinless, the testimony of the Apostles speaks for them better than prophetic/littledavids denial of it.
"Luke 18:19 and Mark 10:18; Jesus says, "No on is good except God alone!" Those who are born from above do many good works that will be **ETERNALLY REWARDED** but only God is good **ALL THE TIME**. The sins a believer does will also be deducted from their **ETERNAL REWARDS** especially if the believer does not repent and ask forgiveness for some of his sins that he knows are sins. "
prophetic gives opinion with no such words of God to show it. Looking at Matthew 19 we see what reason Jesus corrected somebody who labelled Jesus as good..
Matthew 19:16 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.
prophetic was right to say only God is good all of the time, but has revealed he does not consider Jesus Christ is both Lord God and GOOD. If prophetic now confessed that Jesus Christ is His Lord and God, he would also have to acknowledge that Jesus prevented the young rich man from labelling Jesus as a good master, because the man did not know or believe that Jesus Christ was the Son of God. The rich man called all rabbis good even though Christ taught us to call no man your master for you have one master, the rabbis loved to be called of men rabbi rabbi and good rabbi good master:
Matthew 23:7 And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.
"There are about 400 commandments in the New Covenant and a young believer will not know a lot of these 400 NT commands and James 4:17 says: If anyone knows the good they ought to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them!! "
The new covenant is God writing the commandments into the heart, even as told, doing it all by nature which unfortunately prophetic has revealed is not done ever by nature by him:
Romans 2:14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
"There are some believers like the thief on the cross who will not have time to do many good works and may not receive any **ETERNAL REWARDS** even though they will be saved! "
The thief had time to do good works, we saw the thieves taken down from the cross unlike Jesus whose time to die for us doing the work that brings life for us:
John 19:31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
32 Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him.
33 But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:
Reward, he shall be saved. If any man defiles the temple of God, his reward is to not be saved, but to be destroyed...
1 Corinthians 3:13-15: His work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each man's work. If what he has built survives, he will receive his **REWARD**. If it is burned up he will suffer loss; **HE HIMSELF WILL BE SAVED**, but only as one escaping through the flames.
1 Corinthians 3:14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
Adam, in all respect, you are confusing giving an answer with giving a response.
You are only **responding** to questions, you do not actually answer them. I don’t think you know the difference, let me explain.
For example: if I asked what road you used today? You could be said to have truly **answered** the question by naming the road you used today.
But you do not answer questions this way, you just “respond” to questions. By response, I mean that, you simply **respond** to questions by calling the questioner names or by falsely accusing the questioner or by evoking biblical curses upon the questioner or by incoherently evading the question all together.
For example: your **response** as it were, to the road question above, would be akin to responses like “the deceiver says” and with other evasive tactics comparable to, “the dog ran away” type response.
BTW You never answered the question I posed long ago about your church attendance (not where you attend but what you atttend). Specially I was curious if you are obedient to scripture and if you are under the authority of a “local” church body? You responded by hinting attendance at some sort of ethereal universal non-church, that you refered to as the “biblical church”
Matthew 18:10-14: Jesus said, �Two men went up to the temple to **PRAY**, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee {Like Adam7777} stood up and **PRAYED** about himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men�robbers, evildoers, adulterers�or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.' But the tax collector stood at a distance, He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, '**GOD, HAVE MERCY ON ME, A SINNER**'!!.'"I tell you that this man rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted!�
Matthew 4:4: Jesus says, "Man does not live on bread alone, but on **EVERY WORD FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD**!"

John 15:12: Jesus says, "**MY COMMAND** is this: Love each other **AS I HAVE LOVED YOU**!!"

Every born from above saint will try to obey the above three New Covenant commands with all their heart. However, it is obvious that God's saints will fall short of completely obeying the above two commands of God!!!
While Adam7777 claims to be sinless and **PERFECT** it is interesting to note that Adam7777 has **SEPARATED** from his wife and therefore has not been a **PERFECT SINLESS HUSBAND**!!

And so if Adam7777's separated wife is a Christian they are both living continually in sin for we are commanded to forgive our brother or sister or wife in Christ not 7 times but 70 times 7 times! And if Adam7777 married an unsaved woman it is also terrible sin in the NT!!

I have a hard time believing any good christian would use the Bible to regularly argue among one another. Seem like the work of statin to attack etch other in such a way
2 Timothy 3:15,16: 4:1,2: You have known the **HOLY SCRIPTURES**, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. **ALL SCRIPTURE IS GOD-BREATHED** and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of His appearing and His kingdom, I give you this charge: **PREACH THE WORD**!! {**WHICH IS THE ENTIRE NEW COVENANT AND NEW TESTAMENT**!!} be prepared in season and out of season, correct. rebuke and encourage--with great patience and careful instruction. For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn from the truth and turn aside to myths. {Like **SINLESS PERFECTION **}
Jesus regularly used scripture in its proper context and original meaning to refute Satan who also regularly used and twisted scripture from its original context to challenge Jesus.
At the very beginning Satan, in the garden of Eden, quoted God out of context to trick Eve into disobedience.
Many of the letters that Paul wrote by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit were used to refute false teachers who were falsely abusing Scripture to trick believers in similar ways Satan had tricked Eve
Whether we like it or not, scripture is the only source God has used historically since the very beginning throughout scripture to refute false prophets and false brethren. Sadly, false teachers will continue to distort scripture to the very end. Christians are commanded to expose false teaching for the love of God and his truth **and** for the love of God’s people so they won’t be lead astray.
Remember scripture records Paul rebuking Peter in Galatians because Peter, for fear of certain false teachers, allowed false teaching leeway by his silence. Paul noted that Peter’s inaction was leading believers astray.
THIS IS THE QUESTION. SHOULD WE LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE WHO SAY THAT WE IN A LIFELONG PROCESS LEARN TO OBEY GOD AND WILL MATURE BUT NEVER WILL DO EVERYTHING PERFECTLY?
IS THAT CONTAINED IN ANY OF THE TESTIMONIES THAT GOD HAS SHARED WITH US, TO HAVE RIGHTEOUS BELIEF IN CHRIST ENOUGH, TO RECEIVE HIS SPIRIT SO THAT WE CAN DO THE RIGHTEOUSNESS WE HAVE BELIEVED IN?
READ AND THAT IS ANSWERED, BUT NOT BY MANS SELF OPINION, JUST FOLLOW THE WORDS FROM GOD....
CHRIST PURGED OUR SINS(TOOK THEM AWAY) BELIEF IN CHRIST IS HE IS GOD WITH A SCEPTRE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, CHRIST LOVED RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HATED INIQUITY, ONLY SO WE KNOW HE SHOWS US THE ONLY WAY, FOLLOW IT OR FOLLOW LIARS.Romans 12:9 Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good...
Hebrews 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:
Hebrews 1:8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
LISTEN CAREFULLY TO THE TESTIMONIES IN EVERY EPISTLE, DO NOT SLIP, THE WORD WAS AND IS STEDFAST, THAT EVERY TRANSGRESSION AND DISOBEDIENCE RECEIVED RECOMPENSE, WE DO NOT ESCAPE WHEN NEGLECTING AND SLIPPING AWAY FROM THE TRUE GREAT SALVATION,...
Hebrews 2:1 Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.
2 For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward;
3 How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;
WE ARE SANCTIFIED THE SAME ONE AS CHRIST, THIS IS AFTER ALL WHY CHRIST IS THE IMAGE OF GOD SO WE CAN BE THE IMAGE OF HIM, THIS IS TO BE BRETHREN OTHERWISE HOW IS IT...
Hebrews 2:11 For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
12 Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee.
13 And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me.
SO THEN CHRIST WAS MADE IN ALL THINGS LIKE THE BRETHREN HE SOUGHT, THIS MAKES RECONCILIATION FOR OUR SINS BECAUSE CHRIST SUCCOURS US WHEN TEMPTED TO RESIST..
Hebrews 2:17 Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.
18 For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.
CONSIDER CHRIST WHO WAS FAITHFUL TO THE FATHER, RECEIVING MORE GLORY THAN MOSES BUILDING THIS TRUE HOUSE THAT IS OF GLORY...
Hebrews 3:Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;
2 Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house.
3 For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honour than the house.
WE ARE HIS HOUSE IF WE HOLD FAST WHAT WE HEAR, IN HOPE FROM UNTIL THE END, NOT NEVER HAVING TRUE HOPE AS THE DECEIVERS SAY ABOUT THEMSELVES NEVER HOLDING FAST AT ALL, HEAR THE HOLY GHOST AND HARDEN NOT YOUR HEARTS(THROUGH DECEITFULNESS OF SIN) DO NOT REPEAT THE SAME WAY WHEN THEY TEMPTED GOD, THESE ARE THE ONES WHO CONFIRM THEY HAVE NOT KNOWN HIS WAYS, THE EVIL HEART OF UNBELIEF GOES AWAY FROM GOD, FALLS AWAY AND SLIPS, WE ARE MADE PART TAKERS OF CHRIST IF, YOU HOLD, NOT SLIP, NOT FAIL, NOT FALL AWAY, FIRM STEDFAST UNTO THE END..
Hebrews 3:6 But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.
7 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,
8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.
10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.
11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;
SEEING YOU BELIEVE THE TRUE WAY, HOLD FAST YOUR PROFESSION, AS CHRIST WAS TEMPTED IN ALL POINTS LIKE WE SO WE COME BOLDLY TO HIS SAME THRONE OF GRACE FINDING HELP IN EVERY TIME OF NEED WITHOUT SIN..
Hebrews 4:14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
NOW LEAVING THE BEGINNING OF ONES FAITH, THEY GO ON UNTO PERFECTION, NEVER LAYING AGAIN A FOUNDATION THAT CANNOT BE LAYED AGAIN, NO REPENTING AGAIN FROM DEAD WORKS, THEY ARE DEAD, NOW LIVE, FOR THOSE WHO WERE ENLIGHTENED TASTING THIS HEAVENLY GIFT FALL AWAY, CANNOT RENEW AGAIN TO REPENTANCE, THIS IS CRUCIFYING CHRIST AFRESH TO YOURSELVES WHICH DOES NOT HAPPEN..
Hebrews 6:1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
THE DECEIVERS USE ALL EXCUSES THAT COME INTO A TWISTED UNSTABLE UNJUST EVIL MIND, THEY SAY GOD SEES NOT OUR FAULTS ANY LONGER AND FORGIVES THEM, THEY ARE IGNORANCE, BUT THAT WHICH BEARS THORNS AND BRIERS IS REJECTED, SO BE PERSUADED OF BETTER THINGS THAN THESE, THINGS THAT ACCOMPANY SALVATION, SUCH AS TOLD, YE KNOW THE DECEIVERS BY PROMOTING FRUITS OF THORNS AND THISTLES, THAT IS THE CORRUPT TREE THAT ALSO CANT BRING FORTH GOD FRUIT, AND YOU KNOW THE ONES WHO ARE THE GOOD TREE CANNOT BRING FORTH THORNS AND BRIERS, ONLY GOOD FRUIT..
Hebrews 6:8 But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.
9 But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.
Matthew 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
LAY HOLD N THE HOPE THAT IS TOLD TO US, NOT THE WAY CHEATERS DISMISS IT AND PLACE AN IMMITATION IN ITS PLACE, THE HOPE O GOD IS SURE AND IS STEDFAST AS AN ANCHOR, REMEMBER WE ARE HIS HOUSE IF WE HOLD FAST THE HOPE FIRM UNTIL THE END(WHERE IS SLIPPING AWAY EVERY DAY HERE T ALL)..
Hebrews 6:18 That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:
19 Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;
Hebrews 3:6 But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.
PERFECTION WAS NOT BY THE LAW, BUT THE LAW WAS CHANGED AND THEN WHERE WAS PERFECTION? NOT IN THAT OLD LAW OF SIN FORGIVENESS AND DEATH WAS IT..
Hebrews 7:11 If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
THE FIRST LAW/COMMANDMENT WAS WEAK(ROMANS 7 DESCRIBED IT WELL LIARS DO NOT LIKE MANY DETAILS AND DEPTH) THE LAW MADE NOTHING PERFECT, IT PROFITED NOTHING, IT WAS ASSURED DEATH, YOU WERE UNABLE TO STRONGLY OBEY. THE BRINGING IN OF THE BETTER HOPE DID BRING THINGS PERFECT BY WHICH WE PERFECTLY DRAW NEAR TO GOD?
Hebrews 7:18 For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.
19 For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.
RIGHT SO THE HIGH HOLY PRIEST BECAME US, HOLY HARMLESS, UNDEFILED, SEPERATE FROM SINNERS MADE AS HIGH AS THE HEAVENS, RECEIVING THE ONCE OFFERING UP OF CHRIST..Philippians 2:15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;..
Hebrews 7:26 For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
27 Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.
NOW THE MORE EXCELLENT MINISTRY, A BETTER COVENANT, WITHOUT FAULTS, THE FIRST HAD THE FAULT OF THE DECEIVERS WAY NOW, TO HATE YOUR NEIGHBOUR AND BE FORGIVEN BUT TO END UP DEAD IN OUR SINS, BUT THE BETTER PROMISES CAME, THEY DO NOT CONTINUE IN THAT COVENANT AND GOD DOES NOT REGARD US THIS WAY AS TOLD, NOW GOD MAKES THE COVENANT PLACING HIS LAWS IN OUR MIND, WRITING THEM IN OUR HEARTS(THIS IS REAL BY THE WAY) NO NED TO HEAR THE DECEIVERS THEY ARE KNOWN AS DECEIVERS THE MOMENT THEY CONTINUE WITH IMPUDENCE TO TEACH US ANYWAY, GOD GIVES MERCY TO THE UNRIGHTEOUSNESS WE WERE, BY NOT REMEMBERING OR HAVING REASON TO REMEMBER OUR VANISHED SINS ANY MORE..
Hebrews 8:6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
THE FIRST COVENANT OFFERINGS COULD NOT MAKE THE PEOPLE PERFECT, IN CARNAL ORDINANCES THAT CANNOT PLEASE GOD WHO IS A SPIRIT, THEN THE TIME OF REFORMATION WORSHIPING IN THE SPIRIT CAME FROM GOD, CHRIST THE MORE GREATER PERFECT TABERNACLE BY HIS OWN BLOOD OBTAINED ETERNAL REDEMPTION FOR US IN THE HOLY PLACE..
Hebrews 9:9 Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience;
10 Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.
11 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;
12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
THE BLOOD SPRINKLING THE UNCLEAN MAN SANCTIFIED HIM TO THE PURIFYING OF HIS FLESH, THE SPOTLESS BLOOD OF CHRIST THROUGH THE ETERNAL SPIRIT PURGES OUR CONSCIENCE FROM THE DEAD WORKS FULLY TO SERVE THE LIVING GOD. HE REDEEMS US FROM THE TRANSGRESSIONS WE SEE COMMITED UNDER THE FIRST TESTAMENTS WAY, WHICH WE ARE CALLED AWAY FROM TO RECEIVE THOSE BETTER PROMISES BY BELIEF IN AND DOING THE BETTER WAY..
Hebrews 9:13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:
14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
THE HEAVENLY IS PURIFIED WITH BETTER SACRIFICES THAN THE EARTHLY ONES, AS CHRIST ENTERED INTO THE HOLY PLACE OF HEAVEN, AND THAT BRINGS US INTO THE PRESENCE OF GOD..
Hebrews 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
23 It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:
CHRIST APPEARED TO PUT AWAY SIN BY THAT SACRIFICE OF HIMSELF, THAT IS WHAT HE CAME FOR AND WHAT HE ACHIEVED, NOT A HALF HEARTED MANS EXCUSING DECEPTIVE OPINION OF HELL, CHRIST OFFERED ONCE TO FULLY BEAR OUR SINS, AND THEN WE LOOK TO HIM TO APPEAR AGAIN, LOOKING WITHOUT SIN UNTO SALVATION..
Hebrews 9:25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;
26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
THE LAWS WAY IS A SHADOW, SO TOO IS THE DECEIVERS CORRUPTED VERSION, THE FIRST TESTAMENT MADE NO COMER PERFECT, THEY THEN COULD NOT CEASE TO OFFER THE SACRIFICES, THEY CONTINUED TO HAVE CONSCIENCE OF SINS, THEY CONTINUED THE SINS THEY NEEDED TO MAKE SACRIFICES FOR FORGIVENESS AGAIN AND AGAIN, BUT WHEN CHRIST CAME INTO THE WORLD, IT IS THEN CHANGED DECLARING, NO MORE SACRIFICES AND OFFERINGS, HE HAD NO PLEASURE IN THEM THEY ARE NOT PERFECT AND NOT PROFITABLE FOR THE PEOPLE, BUT HE CAME TO GIVE HIS BODY AND TO DO HIS WILL FOR THIS. TOLD IN PSALM 40, IF THE DECEIVERS CARED TO GIVE SINCERE DETAILS, I DELIGHT TO DO THY WILL OH GOD, THY LAW IS WITHIN MY HEART, PREACHING THE RIGHTEOUS GOSPEL OF THE LORDS FAITHFULNESS TO THE GREAT CONGREGATION, NOT HIDING HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS BUT GIVING HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS TO US, THE GIFT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS NOT HIDING TH LOVINGKINDNESS AND TRUTH FROM US BUT GIVING THE LOVE OF GOD AND THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH INTO US..Romans 5:17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) Romans 5:5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us...
Hebrews 10:1 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.
3 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.
4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.
5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
Psalm 40:6 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.
9 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O Lord, thou knowest.
10 I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.
AT THAT TIME OF GIVING US THE HOLY SPIRIT GOD TOOK AWAY THE FIRST FAULTY TESTAMENT/COVENANT AS THAT IS WHAT WE ARE SANCTIFIED BY, GIVEN BY THE OFFERING OF THE BODY OF JESUS CHRIST AND ALSO ONCE AND FOR ALL UNLIKE DECEIVERS DAILY REQUIREMENTS FOR THEMSELVES..
Hebrews 10:8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;
9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.
10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
BUT BY ONE OFFERING HE DID PERFECT THE ONES SANCTIFIED, THAT WAS THE NEW COVENANT, THAT IS WHEN GOD PUTS HIS LAWS INTO OUR HEARTS AND WRITES THEM IN OUR MINDS, THIS IS THE REASON AS WRITTEN FOR GOD TO NOT REMEMBER OUR SINS AND INIQUITIES ANY MORE, AS THEY UNLKE THE FIRST COVENANT, ARE GONE..
Hebrews 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
BUT THE DECEIVER DISPUTES, GOD APPOINTED THEM FOR THAT, TO CLARIFY THE TRUTH FULLY, WE HAD REMISSION OF OUR SINS, THERE IS NO MORE OFFERING FOR SIN IT WAS ONCE AND FOR ALL TO FULLY TAKE THE SINNING AWAY BY WRITING OBEDIENCE INTO OUR HEART, NOW HAVING BOLDNESS BY THE SPIRIT AND GRACE OF CHRIST TO BE A NEW LIVING WAY(NOT DEATH OF CARNAL FLESH ANY MORE) DRAW NEAR WITH A TRUE HEART WITH FULL BELIEF OF THE FAITH, WITH THE HEART SPRINKLED WITH THE PURIFYING BLOOD OF CHRIST TO CLEAN AWAY ANY EVIL REMAINING CONSCIENCE, WASHED WITH PURE WATER WHICH IS THE TRUE WORD UNDILUTED AND NOT TAKEN OR ADDED, BUT HOLDING FAST THE PROFESSION AS IS TOLD THROUGHOUT THE EPISTLES IF YOU READ WITH ME, NO WAVERING, NO FALLING, NO FAILING, NO SLIPPING..
Hebrews 10:18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
21 And having an high priest over the house of God;
22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
FOR IF YOU DO BELIEVE THE LIARS, (WHO ARE WEAK ONLY DARKNESS AND EMPTY CLOUDS) THEY SAY WE CAN SIN AND DECLARE IT TO NOT BE WILFUL BUT IGNORANTLY, BUT IT IS AL WILFUL AS THE TESTIMONY MAKES ALL AWARE, THAT IS WHY GOD TOLD US ALL, BUT WE HAVE RECEIVED THE KNOWLEDGE OF TRUTH AS IT SAYS THERE, SO THERE THEN AS TOLD THROUGHOUT HERE, IS NO MORE SACRIFICE FOR SINS, IT WAS ONCE FOR ALL TO ACHIEVE ALL ONCE YOU BELIEVED, THE DESPISERS AND NOT OBEYERS OF THE LAW TO MOSES DIED WITHOUT MERCY, ARE WE NOT AFRAID OF THE FIERY INDIGNATION AND DEVOURING FIRE OF PUNISHMENT FOR TREADING DOWN THE SON OF GOD UNDER OUR FEET, WHICH REALLY IS COUNTING THE BLOOD THAT SANCTIFIES US, AS UNHOLY BY OUR UNHOLY SIN, BELIEVING MEN'S UNGRACEFUL LIPS RATHER THAN THE SPIRIT OF GRACE?
Hebrews 10:26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
28 He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
BUT THE TRUE WAY IS WE HAVE NEED OF PATIENCE, AFTER WE HAVE DONE THE WILL OF GOD, TO RECEIVE THE PROMISE, AS IT IS NOT RECEIVED BY BELIEVING THAT BREAKING HIS WILL AND WORD AND AIMING FOR IT ONE DAY IS THE STRAIGHT WAY, NOW THE JUST WE HEAR LIVE BY FAITH, THEY DO NOT DRAW BACK AS THAT PLEASES NOT GOD WHO IS PLEASED ONLY BY THOSE WHO DO NOT DRAW BACK TO SIN, BUT BE PERSUADED OF BETTER THINGS, BELIEVE THE WAY NON CROOKED TO THE SAVING OF THE SOUL..
Hebrews 10:36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.
38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.
ABLE OFFERED AN EXCELLENT SACRIFICE(WE ARE REQUIRED TO SACRIFICE OUR BODY CRUCIFIED TOO) GOD TESTIFIED THAT HIS GIFT WAS RIGHTEOUS,(TESTIFIED SO OUR GIFT AND SACRIFICE IS EVEN MORE RIGHTEOUS) GOD ALSO GAVE TESTIMONY TO ENOCH THAT HE PLEASED GOD(AGAIN SO WE KNOW HOW SURELY WE MUST PLEASE GOD EVEN MORE WHICH IS NOT DONE BY THOSE CARNAL IN THE FLESH) THEY DID THIS BY FAITH WHICH WAS A SPIRITUAL GIFT GOD HAD PLACED IN THEM ALL, WE MUST FULLY PLEASE GOD WHO IS A REWARDER OF THOSE WHO DILLIGENTLY SEEK HIM, THIS IS KNOWING GOD AFTER ALL..
Hebrews 11:4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.
5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
BY FAITH MOSES REFUSED THE PLEASURES OF SIN AND CHOOSE AFFLICTION(CAN WE SAY WE CAN DO EVEN LESS THAN THE INCOMPLETE EXAMPLES AND SAY WE FOLLOW TRUTH) WE ENDURE THOUGH SEEING THE LORD, AS CHARITY IS ENDURING THE LOVE WE CLAIM WE HAVE IN US OF GOD..
Hebrews 11:24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
THESE EXAMPLES OF FAITH DID NOT RECEIVE THE PROMISE OF THE HOLY GHOST, GOD GIVES EVEN BETTER TO MAKE US MORE PERFECT WHICH THE LIARS SAY THEY ARE NOTHING LIKE THAT AND ARE OFFENDED IN A WORD..
Hebrews 11:39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:
40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
AFTER ALL OF THIS WITNESS, DO NOT BE WEIGHED DOWN BY THE SIN THAT DRAGS US DOWN, BUT BEGIN RUNNING HE SINCERE RACE, FLEE THE EVIL AND RACE TOWARD THE TRUE GOOD, LOOK TO JESUS HE IS THE WAY THE DECEIVER SURELY IS NOT, ENDURE IS THE KEY WORD AGAIN IF YOU CAN SEE IT, TAKE THE SHAMES NOT DO THE SHAME AND DO WHAT IS RIGHT IN STEAD..
Hebrews 12:1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Hebrews 12:11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
13 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.
LOOK DILLIGENTLY AS TOLD TO NOT FAIL THE GRACE OF CHRIST, IN BITTERNESS(AS LITTLEDAVID/PROPHETIC EXAMPLES) AND DEFILED, DO NOT BE A FORNICATOR WHO SELL THEIR SOULS FOR A PIECE OF BREAD, THEY WILL NOT INHERIT THE BLESSING OF GOD, CHRIST SAYS WE WILL BE REJECTED FOR INIQUITY, NO PLACE OF REPENTANCE CAN WE HEAR THE REBUKE IN TRUTH OR NOT? Proverbs 28:21 To have respect of persons is not good: for for a piece of bread that man will transgress.Matthew 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity...
Hebrews 12:15 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;
16 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.
17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.
IT IS WORSE THAN THE MOUNTAIN ON FIRE WHICH CANT BE TOUCHED, AND THE PEOPLE COULD NOT EVEN ENDURE WHAT GOD CAME TO TELL THEM, THEY ASKED FOR THE WORD TO GO AWAY, AND THE SIGHT WAS SO TERRIBLE THAT MOSES SAID HE EXCEEDINGLY FEARS AND QUAKES..
Hebrews 12:18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:
21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)
WE COME TO JESUS IN THE NEW COVENANT, SPEAKING BETTER THINGS THAN THOSE EXAMPLES OF FAITH THEY DID, AND WE NEED TO DO GREATER, YES EVEN MORE PERFECTLY, REFUSING IS WHAT THEY DID AND THEY DID NOT ESCAPE THAT A WAY, NOW THE UNIVERSE WILL BE REMOVED ON FIRE, SO HAVE GRACE FOR WHAT IS TOLD AND HOW, TO SERVE GOD ACCEPTABLY INSTEAD OF TURNING AWAY TO THE SAME EVIDENCED SIN, HAVE REVERANCE AND FEAR FOR GOD IS A CONSUMING FIRE..
Hebrews 12:24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.
25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:
26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
29 For our God is a consuming fire.
BE HONOURABLE IN ALL, AS WHOREMONGERS AND ADULTERERS AND THE DEFILED ARE JUDGED BY GOD, BE WITHOUT COVETEOUSNESS, BE CONTENTED ALWAYS INSTEAD, IN BELIEF KNOWING WE WONT BE FORSAKEN, BOLDLY KNOW WE NEED NOT FEAR MAN AND GOD WILL HELP US THROUGH ALL IN RIGHTEOUS HEARTS BELIEF..
Hebrews 13:4 Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
6 So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
THE LIARS DOCTRINES HOLD NO WEIGHT, WE CANT BE CARRIED AWAY BY THEM, ESTABLISH THE HEART BY HIS GRACE, IT NEEDS TO BE STABLISHED AND MADE READY AS TOLD IN ALL PLACES,(WHERE IS THE VERSES OF THE NON PREPARED SEDUCERS?) GO TO MEET CHRIST WHERE HE IS, NOT WHERE THE DEVIL STILL IS, THE RIGHTEOUSNESS IN THE SPIRIT OF THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN( SATAN SURELY IS NOT THERE WHICH KINGDOM ALSO IS WITHIN US) BEAR THE REPROACH OF CHRIST INSTEAD OF THE DEVIL.Luke 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. 1 Corinthians 3:17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are...
Hebrews 13:9 Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.
10 We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle.
11 For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp.
12 Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.
13 Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
HAVE A GOOD CONSCIENCE AS THE WORDS GIVE TO US, TO LIVE HONESTLY IN ALL THINGS, THROUGH THE BLOOD OF THE EVERLASTING COVENANT, THE GOD OF PEACE BROUGHT THE GREAT SHEPHERD OF HIS SHEEP FROM THE DEAD TO MAKE US PERFECT THROUGH HIS RISEN SPIRIT IN EVERY GOOD WORK DOING HIS WILL, AS GOD DOES WORK IN US WHAT IS WELL PLEASING TO HIS OWN SELF, WHICH IS GLORY TO JESUS CHRIST NOW US WALKING IN GLORY AND FOR EVER..
Hebrews 13:18 Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.
19 But I beseech you the rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
20 Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,
21 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
2 Timothy 3:15,16: 4:1,2: You have known the **HOLY SCRIPTURES**, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. **ALL SCRIPTURE IS GOD-BREATHED** and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of His appearing and His kingdom, I give you this charge: **PREACH THE WORD**!! {**WHICH IS THE ENTIRE NEW COVENANT AND NEW TESTAMENT**!!} be prepared in season and out of season, correct. rebuke and encourage--with great patience and careful instruction. For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn from the truth and turn aside to myths. {Like **SINLESS PERFECTION THE MOMENT WE ARE SAVED**}
Matthew 18:10-14: Jesus said, �Two men went up to the temple to **PRAY**, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee {Like Adam7777} stood up and **PRAYED** about himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men�robbers, evildoers, adulterers�or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.' But the tax collector stood at a distance, He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, '**GOD, HAVE MERCY ON ME, A SINNER**'!!.'"I tell you that this man rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted!�
Matthew 4:4: Jesus says, "Man does not live on bread alone, but on **EVERY WORD FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD**!"
I John 1:6: Whoever claims to live in Him **MUST** LIVE AS JESUS DID**!!
John 15:12: Jesus says, "**MY COMMAND** is this: Love each other **AS I HAVE LOVED YOU**!!"
Matthew 5:48: Jesus says, "Be perfect **AS YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER IS PERFECT**!!"
Every born from above saint will try to obey the above four New Covenant commands with all their heart. However, it is obvious that God's saints will fall short of completely obeying the above two commands of God!!!
While Adam7777 claims to be sinless and **PERFECT** it is interesting to note that Adam7777 has **SEPARATED** from his wife and therefore has not been a **PERFECT SINLESS HUSBAND**!! For God's word states in Matthew 19:5,6: Jesus says, "A man shall leave his father and mother and be united to his wife and they shall become one flesh, they are no longer two, but one flash. Therefore what God has joined together let no man {Like Adam7777} separate!!"
And so if Adam7777's separated wife is a Christian they are both living continually in sin for we are commanded to forgive our brother or sister or wife in Christ not 7 times but 70 times 7 times! And if Adam7777 married an unsaved woman it is also terrible sin in the NT!!
I John 1:3-10: We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you may have fellowship with us... We write this to make **OUR JOY COMPLETE**. This is the message we have heard **FROM HIM** and declare to you: If we claim to be without sin {Like Adam7777}, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. **IF WE CONFESS OUR SINS**, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned {Like Adam7777} we make Him out to be a liar and **HIS WORD IS NOT IN US**!
Luke 11:1-4: The **DISCIPLES** asked Jesus, "Lord teach as to pray." Jesus replied **TO HIS DISCIPLES**, "When you pray, say: '**FATHER**, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come. Give us each day our **DAILY** bread. **FORGIVE US OUR SINS**, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us!'"
Matthew 4:4: Jesus says, "Man shall live by **EVERY WORD** that comes from the mouth of God!"
James 5:16: **CONFESS YOUR SINS** to each other and pray for each other!!
Psalm 38:18: David said, "I **CONFESS MY SIN**; I am troubled by **MY SIN**!"
Daniel 9:20: Daniel said, "While I was speaking and praying, **CONFESSING MY SIN**!"
Revelation 3:19: Jesus says, "Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline, so be earnest and **REPENT**!!" {**OF YOUR SINS**!!}
Hebrews 12:5-11: Do not make light of the Lord's discipline, and do not lose heart when He rebukes you, because the Lord disciplines those He loves, and He chastens **EVERYONE** HE ACCEPTS AS A SON**!!! Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as His children. For what children are not disciplined by their father {FOR THEIR SINS**}? If you are not disciplined--and everyone undergoes discipline--**THEN YOU ARE NOT LEGITIMATE**, not true sons and daughters at all. Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us{FOR OUR SINS!} and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live! They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in His holiness. No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it!
Since Adam7777 claims that he **NO LONGER SINNED** the moment he was saved; he completely disagrees with the above 3 passages from the inspired Words of God. And since he believes he was completely perfect when he was saved there is no reason for him to want **ETERNAL HEAVENLY REWARDS** for faithful and loving service.
**HOWEVER, GOD'S WORD COMPLETELY DISAGREES WITH HIM**!!
Matthew 16:27: Jesus says, "For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father's glory with His angels and **THEN** He will **REWARD** each person according to what they have done!"
Matthew 5:11,12: Jesus says, �Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your **REWARD** **IN HEAVEN**!�
I Corinthians 9:24-27: Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes in to strict training. They do it to get a **CROWN** that will not last; but we do it to get a **CROWN THAT WILL LAST FOREVER**! Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize!
Luke 11:33,34: Jesus says, "Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a **TREASURE** IN HEAVEN** that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your **TREASURE** is, there your **HEART** will be also!"
2 Corinthians 5:9,10: We make it our goal to please Him... for we must all appear before the Judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or ***BAD***.
Luke 18:19 and Mark 10:18; Jesus says, "No on is good except God alone!" Those who are born from above do many good works that will be **ETERNALLY REWARDED** but only God is good **ALL THE TIME**. The sins a believer does will also be deducted from their **ETERNAL REWARDS** especially if the believer does not repent and ask forgiveness for some of his sins that he knows are sins.
There are about 400 commandments in the New Covenant and a young believer will not know a lot of these 400 NT commands and James 4:17 says: If anyone knows the good they ought to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them!!
There are some believers like the thief on the cross who will not have time to do many good works and may not receive any **ETERNAL REWARDS** even though they will be saved!
1 Corinthians 3:13-15: His work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each man's work. If what he has built survives, he will receive his **REWARD**. If it is burned up he will suffer loss; **HE HIMSELF WILL BE SAVED**, but only as one escaping through the flames.
