SPIRITUAL FOOD FOR THOUGHT - BLOOD FREE

in #christianity6 years ago

What does that even mean?


Paul seems to make mention of an interesting concept, which, if we reflect on it for a moment, may carry some life changing meaning into our daily walks. This one is also about evangelism, so if you struggle with sharing your faith or just want some encouragement or spiritual food for thought, check it out.

Ever since I was born again I have been concerned about the eternal destiny of people I don’t even know. Street preaching, jails, ministry to prostitutes and those bound by addictions. Today I am living my dream! Not a big house, or large bank account. But a time where we have fruitful ministry every day. Souls coming into the kingdom.
In line with you video I believe we are responsible for the souls of our generation.
The best thing in life is to be part of someone receiving eternal life. Imagine someone going into eternal damnation because we did not share our faith.
I always loved Keith Green. He sang a song, “ Jesus commands us to GO, it should be the exception if we stay, no wonder we’re moving so slow, for God’s children refuse to obey, feeling so calm to stay”.
The greatest joy besides having our own sins forgiven, is to lead someone else to Christ!
Great video!

Keith Green.
"The world is sleeping in the dark,
That the church just can't fight,
'cause it's asleep in the light!
How can you be so dead?!
When you've been so well famed
Jesus rose from the grave,
And you!
You can't even get out of bed!"


Ouch. Certainly true far too often.

Keith Green had a way of giving a “one two” punch in a song!

Food for thought today!!.
I'm not really into evangelism due to the challenges in it over here, it's not usually easy to preach to anyone out there.

It can be difficult anywhere, but some countries certainly make it a lot harder and more risky.

Exactly sir!!, exactly

Where is the command found to evangelicize? There is none. Let your works be before other men, so that they will ask the nature of your works. And you will share it with them and be likened to fishers of men.

I always thought that this was a command to preach the gospel:

"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature." - Mark 16:15

Here we are! Now, papa-pepper what is this? Its instructions to form a great commission as your getting to in Acts! At the time, contextually jewish material was prohibited to be circulated among non-jews. But, salvation (the good news) is for everyone!

50 days from monday is the same time frame (in season) as baptism by fire. I believe Acts 21? Which concludes the counting of the omer.

Thanks for putting this up there. I hope you dont mind me sharing what research I've found

No problem. I love a good spiritual think and discussion.

Yeah same here, growth

Hi @ihashblox,

It don't think it is explicitly stated (kinda of like the Trinity) but this passage seems to lay it out.

Matthew 28:19-20 KJVS
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: [20] Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

I am not one for the thing known as lifestyle evangelism as the gospel itself is comprised of a set of propositions that must be articulated. If God had ordained the person to believe, they will believe.

Yes I'm familiar. Teach them all things ive commanded of you. Again where is the command to evangelicize.

You see, Christ taught that people need to find themselves. Perfect themself and others will take note.

Ok, good. Yeah, it's not explicit in that passtage I don't reckon.

Christ taught that people need to find themselves.r矢、

That passage you referenced, what does it mean?

Could it be that individuals should observe (all the commands made by God)?

Interesting insight. Perhaps it could.

Papa-pepper mad respect for what youre family is doing here. Have you read gospel of Thomas and Enoch?

Sorry. My comment was accidentally published before I was finished.

Jesus may have taught something about self-discovery but the main reason He was sent to this Earth was to die a bloody death to atone for the sins of His elect. The bottom line is that people cannot believe in a gospel they do not know.

The message is His blood, His death atoned for certain kind of certain people and whoever believes affirms they are of those people. Gospel believers believe a particular set of supernatural propositions.

The question is which are the truth. For that I defer to Holy Writ.

Is it?

I see it differently so, let me explain.

Jesus came here, to teach a lost generation what was given at Sinai. Specifically, so many generations from the generation in the desert.

"Why have you come out into the desert? To see a reed shaken by the wind? And to see a man clothed in fine garments like your kings and your great men? Upon them are the fine garments, and they are unable to discern the truth."

Jesus, outside of KJV sheds more light on mystical teachings. Like, seeing reflection of Creator in everything.

(They saw) a Samaritan carrying a lamb on his way to Judea. He said to his disciples, "That man is round about the lamb." They said to him, "So that he may kill it and eat it." He said to them, "While it is alive, he will not eat it, but only when he has killed it and it has become a corpse." They said to him, "He cannot do so otherwise." He said to them, "You too, look for a place for yourself within repose, lest you become a corpse and be eaten."

Makes reference to an arch that fastens the waters to the horizons. The firmament. He also said something that stuns me.

Jesus said, "Where there are three gods, they are gods. Where there are two or one, I am with him." Gospel of Timothy

"The pharisees and the scribes have taken the keys of knowledge (gnosis) and hidden them. They themselves have not entered, nor have they allowed to enter those who wish to. You, however, be as wise as serpents and as innocent as doves."

Same reference

"If they say to you, 'Where did you come from?', say to them, 'We came from the light, the place where the light came into being on its own accord and established itself and became manifest through their image.' If they say to you, 'Is it you?', say, 'We are its children, we are the elect of the living father.' If they ask you, 'What is the sign of your father in you?', say to them, 'It is movement and repose.'"

I was also reminded of the below verses....

Matthew 10:11-15 “Now whatever city or town you enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and stay there till you go out. 12 And when you go into a household, greet it. 13 If the household is worthy, let your peace come upon it. But if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you. 14 And whoever will not receive you nor hear your words, when you depart from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet. 15 Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!
