--The Apostle Paul says, “For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ” (Galatians 3:27). Think about this for a moment. When you make God’s story yours, he covers you in Christ. You wear him like a vest. Old labels no longer apply.
How about these new labels: Royal Priest. Secure. God’s Coworker. God’s Workmanship. Now you’re dressed in a new wardrobe. Psalm 103:12 reminds us not to mess with the old clothes any longer. “As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.”You can be sure of this: He sees his Son, not your sin! In fact, Isaiah 43:25 says, “He remembers your sins no more!” -- -More to God's Story/ML ---- --BELIEVING THE BIBLE~~
-"Ben, I'd give anything in the world if I could believe the Bible."
My friend you can. No matter who tries to tamper with the Christian faith...I look for two things:
-(1)-Who do they say Jesus is? -(2)-What do they say happened on the Cross when Jesus was crucified?
Do their answers hinge on the Bible-- or other sources?
Jesus is the only Son of God. Jesus said, 'If you have seen Me, you have seen the Father. If you have known Me, you have known the Father. I and the Father are One.'
-"I don't understand that," you say.
God's ways are not our ways. Neither you nor I can understand God's ways and--on the face of it, these claims defy logic.
--JOHN 14:7~~
--One on One/ BH~~ -- [When we read in the book of EXODUS / Chapter 3, we read that Moses saw the burning bush, that it was not burned up. Moses turned aside to see this marvelous sight." When the LORD saw that he turned aside to look, God called to him from the midst of the bush and said, "Moses, Moses! And he said, "Here I am."
Then [God] said, "Do not come near here; remove your sandals from your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground." "I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." Then Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look at God. The LORD said, "I have surely seen the affliction of My people who are in Egypt, and have given heed to their cry because of their taskmasters, for I am aware of their sufferings. So I have come down to deliver them from the power of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a good and spacious land, to a land flowing with milk and honey..."
"Therefore, come now, and I will send you to Pharaoh, so that you may bring My people, the sons of Israel, out of Egypt. But Moses said to God, "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the sons of Israel out of Egypt?
And He [God}, said, "Certainly I will be with you, and this shall be the sign to you that is I who have sent you; when you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall worship God at this mountain."
(VS.7) Then Moses said to God, "Behold, I am going to the sons of Israel and I will say to them, 'The God of your fathers has sent me to you.' Now they may say to me, 'What is His name?' What shall I say to them?"
God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM; and He said, Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, "I AM has sent me to you.'" // 'I Am Not Alone' / Kari Jobe~~ ------- <https://youtu.be/Ow4OfW4DP9s> ------
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
