Predestinate

Romans 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
Romans 8:30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

Ephesians 1:5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
Ephesians 1:11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

Unconditional election is a Reformed doctrine relating to predestination that describes the actions and motives of God prior to his creation of the world, when he predestined some people to receive salvation, the elect, and the rest he left to continue in their sins and receive the wrath.

Romans 8:33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth.
Romans 9:11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;)
Romans 11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
Romans 11:7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
Romans 11:28 As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the father’s sakes.

Colossians 3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;

1 Thessalonians 1:4 Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.

1 Timothy 5:21 I charge thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality.

2 Timothy 2:10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

Titus 1:1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness;

When we believe in the death, burial and resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) of the Lord Jesus Christ and confess He is God with our mouth (Romans 10:9), we are elected and predestined to be like Him, seated with Him in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6).

Propitiation

**The action of appeasing a god, spirit, or person, (by doing something that pleases them)**.

Romans 3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

Hebrews 9:5 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercy seat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.

1 John 2:2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
1 John 4:10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

In Romans 3:25 and Hebrews 9:5 (A.V., “mercy-seat”) the Greek word hilasterion is used. It is the word employed by the LXX. translators in Exodus 25:17 and elsewhere as the equivalent for the Hebrew kapporeth , which means covering, and is used of the lid of the ark of the covenant (Exodus 25:21 ; 30:6 ). This Greek word (hilasterion) came to denote not only the mercy-seat or lid of the ark, but also propitiation or reconciliation by blood. On the great day of atonement the high priest carried the blood of the sacrifice he offered for all the people within the veil and sprinkled with it the “mercy-seat,” and so made propitiation.
In 1 John 2:2 ; 4:10 , Christ is called the “propitiation for our sins.” Here a different Greek word is used (hilasmos). Christ is “the propitiation,” because by His becoming our substitute and assuming our obligations He expiated our guilt, covered it, by the vicarious punishment which he endured. (Compare Hebrews 2:17, where the expression “make reconciliation” of the A.V. is more correctly in the RSV “make propitiation.”)

Perdition

**A state of final spiritual ruin; loss of the soul; damnation**

Twice the phrase “son of Perdition” is mentioned in the New Testament. The first time refers to Judas:

John 17:12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.
Acts 1:20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.
Psalm 69:25 Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.
Psalm 109:8 Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
The second time refers to a man of sin yet to be revealed. It appears that he will be revealed after the Rapture.
2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
Paul mentions Perdition 3 more times:
Philippians 1:28 And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.
1 Timothy 6:9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
Paul warns Jews who believed Jesus was the Messiah not to turn back to the Law: (Hebrews 6:1-6) and then again:
Hebrews 10:39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.
Remember the definition of PERDITION: a state of final spiritual ruin; loss of the soul; damnation
This is destination of the Beast and all unsaved humans:
2 Peter 3:7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
Revelation 17:8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
Revelation 17:11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.

Joy

Joy is: Being in God’s will
Being Faithful
Being a fruitful Branch
Being a Soul Winner

Fullness of Joy Psalm 16:11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

Shall reap in Joy Psalm 126:5-6 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.

The Lord Jesus used Parables to teach about Joy:
Enter into the Joy of the Lord Matthew 25:21,23 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord…. His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

He spoke to His Apostles where their joy would come from:
Joy may be full John 15:11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

The Lord Jesus warned His Apostles sorrow was coming BUT it would be turned into Joy:
Sorrow shall be turned to Joy John 16:19-22 Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Do ye enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me? Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy. A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.
And it still applies today. When we believe in the death, burial and resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:1-4), and confess that Jesus is God (Romans 10:9) sorrow is lifted. And each time we feel low, sorrow, all we need to is take it to Him in Prayer in faith, trusting is Him. As Paul wrote:
1 Timothy 2:1-5 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

Read the Word

Many churches and organizations today challenge their members to read through the Bible in one year. The first reference to reading the word is found in Exodus where Moses read from the book of the covenant (Genesis) to all Israel:
Exodus 24:7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient.
Moses reminds Israel to keep the word of God by having it read, all the time.
Deuteronomy 17:19 And it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all the days of his life: that he may learn to fear the LORD his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them:
Deuteronomy 31:11 When all Israel is come to appear before the LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their hearing.
Joshua knew the importance of reading the word of the Lord.
Joshua 8:34-35 And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessings and cursings, according to all that is written in the book of the law. There was not a word of all that Moses commanded, which Joshua read not before all the congregation of Israel, with the women, and the little ones, and the strangers that were conversant among them.
There came a time after Joshua that Israel strayed from reading God’s word. In fact, it appears they even lost it. Then during the reign of Josiah, the high priest Hilkiah found it.
2 Kings 22:8 And Hilkiah the high priest said unto Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of the LORD. And Hilkiah gave the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
2 Kings 22:10 And Shaphan the scribe shewed the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest hath delivered me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.
2 Kings 22:16 Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah hath read:
2 Kings 23:2 And the king went up into the house of the LORD, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, both small and great: and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in the house of the LORD.
2 Chronicles 34 records this same event and it influenced the reign of Josiah.
During the reign of Artaxerxes, Jerusalem was being rebuilt, that Ezra the scribe brought the book of the law, to encourage the people.
Nehemiah 8:3 And he read therein before the street that was before the water gate from the morning until midday, before the men and the women, and those that could understand; and the ears of all the people were attentive unto the book of the law.
Nehemiah 8:8 So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading.
Nehemiah 8:18 Also day by day, from the first day unto the last day, he read in the book of the law of God. And they kept the feast seven days; and on the eighth day was a solemn assembly, according unto the manner.
Nehemiah 9:3 And they stood up in their place, and read in the book of the law of the LORD their God one fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they confessed, and worshipped the LORD their God.
Nehemiah 13:1 On that day they read in the book of Moses in the audience of the people; and therein was found written, that the Ammonite and the Moabite should not come into the congregation of God for ever;
Isaiah prophecies of a time coming:
Isaiah 34:16 Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them.
Jeremiah stresses the importance of reading the words of the Lord.
Jeremiah 36:6 Therefore go thou, and read in the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the LORD in the ears of the people in the LORD’s house upon the fasting day: and also thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities.
Jeremiah 36:10 Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the LORD, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the entry of the new gate of the LORD’s house, in the ears of all the people.
Jeremiah 36:13-15 Then Michaiah declared unto them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.
Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thine hand the roll wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them. And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. So Baruch read it in their ears.
Jeremiah 36:21 So the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll: and he took it out of Elishama the scribe’s chamber. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes which stood beside the king.
Jeremiah 36:23 And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, he cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was on the hearth, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was on the hearth.

Read the Word – Part 2

The Lord Jesus made much of reading the Word of God.
Luke 4:16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.
Matthew 12:3, Mark 2:25, Luke 6:3 But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hungred, and they that were with him;
Matthew 12:5 Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
Matthew 19:4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
Matthew 21:16 And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?
Matthew 21:42, Mark 12:10 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
Matthew 22:31, Mark 12:26 But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying,

Reading the word of God is important and should be encouraged. But read is many times not enough. It needs to be studied and understood. An example of this is found in Acts 8:26-40, the Ethiopian eunuch was reading in Isaiah but did not understand.
Acts 8:28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet.
Acts 8:30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
Acts 8:32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:

Even though the scripture was read every sabbath they did not understand it.
Acts 13:27 For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.
Acts 15:21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.

The Apostle Paul not only encouraged the reading of his epistles but also the writings of Moses.
2 Corinthians 1:13 For we write none other things unto you, that what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end;
2 Corinthians 3:2 Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:
2 Corinthians 3:15 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.
Ephesians 3:4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)
Colossians 4:16 And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the epistle from Laodicea.
1 Thessalonians 5:27 I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.

Reading the word of God is important and should be encouraged. But more important is to Study the scripture.

Dreams and Visions – Part 2

Everybody has them. Visions, Hebrews 1:1-2, no more!
Why do we have dreams? Studies have shown the brain does not sleep but is very active while the body sleeps. There are various stages of sleep and while in the deepest state, the brain is very active. The brain is like a huge computer and while the body is awake it gathers information from our senses: hearing, sight, smell, taste, and touch. This data is stored in the frontal lobe of the brain. As the body drifts off into sleep, the brain starts to process this data, moving and labeling it to different parts of the brain, just as a computer does. All this occurs while in deep sleep. If the body is disturbed during this process and move to a lighter sleep state a dream occurs and is put back into the frontal lobe. This may or may not be recalled when the body is fully awake. This is why dreams may be remembered. The question arises “Why do I have weird dreams?” Remember what the brain has experienced during the day: Movies, TV, Radio, Books read, food eaten etc. Also remember this data is being merged with all of life’s past experiences. Disturbed from deep sleep at the wrong time could produce some really bad dreams.
The brain never forgets. Consider what the scripture says:

The Lord Jesus:
Matthew 12:36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

The Apostle Paul:
Romans 14:10-12 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
Isaiah 45:23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
1 Corinthians 3:13 Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is.
2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
Hebrews 13:17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.

And the Apostle Peter writing to believing Jews:
1 Peter 4:5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.

The brain never forgets.

Dreams and Visions

Dreams “a series of thoughts, images, and sensations occurring in a person’s mind during sleep”.

Jacob's Ladder - Bible Story, Verses and Meaning — Jacob dreaming

Everybody has them. Almost none are remembered (and for those remembered, not for very long). What do they mean? Why do we have them? There are those who place much belief on a dream, claiming they tell us things; should we? (For a list of dreams in scripture see Dreams – Visions)

Dream(s) are mentioned 61 times in a little over 4000 years of human history as recorded in Scripture.
54 times in the Old Testament: In Genesis 23, Numbers 1, Judges 2, 1 Kings 2, Job 2, Psalm 2, Ecclesiastes 1, Isaiah 1, Jeremiah 1, Daniel 18, Joel 1.
7 times in the New Testament: Matthew 6, Acts 1.

Visions “something seen in a dream, trance, or religious ecstasy, especially a supernatural appearance that usually conveys a revelation”.

Has God's Dietary Law Been Done Away With? | Bulldozerfaith — Peter’s vision

Yes there are people who claim to have them, even today.
Vision(s) are mentioned 73 times in scripture.
58 times in the Old Testament: Genesis 1, Numbers 3, 1 Samuel 2, 2 Samuel 1, 1 Chronicles 1, 2 Chronicles (1) Job (2) Psalm 1, Proverbs 1, Isaiah 7, Jeremiah 2, Lamentations 1, Ezekiel 10, Daniel 19, Obadiah 1, Micah 1, Nahum 1, Habakkuk 2, Zechariah 1.
15 times in the New Testament: Matthew 1, Luke 2, Acts 11,.Revelation 1.
Even though the Apostle Paul had dreams and visions, he never suggests them in his epistles to the churches. In study of the above passages, it is almost every time the Lord God communicating a message, instruction to man. Which brings us to Paul’s message in Hebrews:
Hebrews 1:1-2 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
And as Paul concludes in 1 Corinthians 13:8-13 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

The Word of God is Perfect.

Today, to hear from God, READ and STUDY His word, the Holy Scriptures.

Bible Fruit

The Apostle Paul wrote about fruit in at least two different ways: Fruit as individuals being saved and Fruit of the Spirit.
To the church in Roman Paul writes of Fruit as people:
Romans 1:13 Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.

And again, when writing to the church in Philippi. (his labor was soul winning) But not for just himself but for them also.
Philippians 1:22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.
Philippians 4:17 Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.
Back to Romans he writes about Fruit of Holiness (how believers live):
Romans 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
Romans 7:4-5 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God. For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
And to the church in Corinth he write of the fruit of righteousness:
2 Corinthians 9:10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;
To the churches of Galatia and Ephesus he lists Fruits of the Spirit that should be (is) in the life of all believers
Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
Ephesians 5:9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)

Yes, Paul was a soul winner and writing to the Colossian church he challenges all believers to be soul winners.
Colossians 1:6 Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth also in you, since the day ye heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth:
Colossians 1:10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

Remnant

Means remaining, a small quantity remaining
Found 91 times in the Bible

The Apostle Paul quotes from Isaiah (Esaias) the judgements concerning Israel.

Romans 9:27 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
See Isaiah 1:9, 10:20-22, 11:11,16, 14:22,30, 15:9, 16:14, 17:3, 37:4,31-32, 46:3

Yes, over the centuries, Israel, the Jew, has suffered many great trials, BUT they are still God’s chosen and a REMNANT will pass into and through the Tribulation, to help repopulate the earth again during the Millennium.

Romans 11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

Putting this verse back into context, we see Paul is referring to Israel, the Jew, NOT the church. Be sure to read Romans 9-11 where Paul writes about Israel’s spiritual condition during the Church age. Below is just a short picture: (remember, Jacob represents the ungodly side of the Jew, Israel represents the spiritual side of the Jew).

Romans 9:6 Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
Romans 9:27 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
Romans 9:31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.
Romans 10:1 Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
Romans 10:19 But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.
Romans 10:21 But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.
Romans 11:2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel saying,
Romans 11:7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
Romans 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Romans 11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Romans 11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
