The Gainsaying of Core (Korah)

Jude 1:1 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.

GAINSAY – to deny, dispute or contradict

The story of Korah (Core) is found in Numbers 16:1-33 … And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown: And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD? …

⇒ He led a rebellion against Moses
⇒ He didn’t believe God
⇒ He rebelled against God
⇒ He provoked the Lord

Korah desired leadership. He wanted to be in charge, despite what God had said. He and his followers perished at the hand of the Lord. Numbers 16:32-33 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods. They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation.

Their punishment is repeated in Numbers 26:9-10 And the sons of Eliab; Nemuel, and Dathan, and Abiram. This is that Dathan and Abiram, which were famous in the congregation, who strove against Moses and against Aaron in the company of Korah, when they strove against the LORD: And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up together with Korah, when that company died, what time the fire devoured two hundred and fifty men: and they became a sign.

Thus ended the gainsayings of Core (Korah).

The Way of Cain

PPT - Mistakes Of Cain PowerPoint Presentation, free download - ID ...

Jude 1:1 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.

Read Genesis 4 for the story of Cain.

And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD…

⇒ First human born (his parents were created).
⇒ A tiller of the ground (farmer).
⇒ Did things HIS way (disobedient).
⇒ Was Jealous of his brother, and angry.
⇒ A murderer (killed his younger brother).
⇒ Lied to God.

That sums up the way of Cain. He knew God. He talked with God. And he still disobeyed God.

Cain is spoken of 3 times in the New Testament.

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.
1 John 3:12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous.
Jude 1:11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.

Trumpets

Prepare the Way – Forty Days of Seeking God for the Feast of ...

A study of TRUMPET in scripture reveals a lot of truth.

In the Old Testament after the Israelites left Egypt, the trumpet was used to communicate to them, to call them to Order, to Battle, for the Feasts. NUMBERS 10:4 And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, …, shall gather themselves unto thee.
See EXODUS 19:13, 16, 19; 20:18, LEVITICUS 25:9, JOSHUA 6:5, 20;
JUDGES 3:27, 6:34, 7:16, 18

As seen in the verses above, the TRUMPET continued to lead them as the took over and lived in the promise land. All through Israel’s history 1 SAMUEL 13:3 …And Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear. See 2 Samuel 2:28; 6:15; 15:10; 18:16; 20:1, 22; 1 Kings 1:34, 39, 41;
Nehemiah 4:20; Job 39:24-25; Psalm 47:5; 84:3; 98:6; 150:3; Isaiah 18:3; 27:13; 58:1; Jeremiah 4:5, 19, 21; 6:1, 17; 42:14; 51:27; Ezekiel 7:14; 33:3-6; Hosea 5:8; 8:1; Joel 2:1, 15; Amos 2:2; 3:6; Zephaniah 1:16; 9:14.

And as we study history even down to the present day military, the Trumpet is used to communicate.

Paul warns of the miss use of the trumpet 1 Corinthians 14:8 For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?
The Trumpet plays a great roll during the Tribulation, especially during the last 3 ½ years. Revelation 1:10, 4:1 8:2,6,3, 9:14, 18:2.

The Lord Jesus forewarned Israel about His coming, at the end of the great Tribulation.

Matthew 24:30-31 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

But there is a Trumpet all believers are listening to hear. 1 Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
1 Corinthians 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. So, as believers, the next TRUMPET we are waiting for is:

When He Comes | Jesus is coming, Trumpet, Dreams, visions

THE TRUMP OF GOD!!

Temple

The Tabernacle in Its Ancient Near Eastern Context - TheTorah.com

From the time of Moses until 70 AD, except for about 70 years during Daniel’s time, Israel, the Jews, have had a Tabernacle, replaced by a Temple during Solomon’s time, where they could worship God and offer animal sacrifices according to the Law. In 70 AD, due to Israel’s rejection of Christ, God allowed the Romans to destroy the Temple and begin the disbursement of the Jews throughout the world as He said He would. The Jews have been without the ability to offer animal sacrifice, required by the Law, ever since. But God has promised He will gather all Israel back to the land He gave them and set up a Kingdom for them to rule the earth with their Messiah.

Herod's Temple, Jerusalem ARTchive @ PreteristArchive.com, The ...

In the Gospels and the book of Acts, the TEMPLE is mentioned 85 times.

As magnificent as the Temple was, The Lord Jesus told of it’s destruction.
Matthew 24:1-2, Mark 13:1-2, Luke 19:41-44, 21:6 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

The Lord Jesus told the Samarian woman, at the well, when the Temple would not be needed to worship God. John 4:1-24. vs 23-24 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

The Temple existed during Paul’s life, but he wanted believers to know they were the spiritual Temple. Paul writing to the Corinthian believers about the Temple but usually in reference to their bodies.
1 Corinthians 3:16-17 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
(also see 6:19, 8:10, 9:13, 2 Corinthians 6:16)

Paul writes about the spiritual Temple in Ephesians 2:21-22 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.
And the Temple he speaks about in 2 Thessalonians 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Is the rebuilt Temple during the Tribulation.
Yes, the Temple will be rebuilt, either just before or right after the Rapture
(1 Thessalonians 4:13-18), and the Jews will go back to Temple worship as it was during the Time of Paul.

The Temple is mentioned 13 times in Revelation.

It appears to be the TEMPLE that is in Heaven. Revelation 7:15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. (also see 3:12; 11:1-2, 19; 14:15; 15:5-6, 8; 16:1,17).
But look at the last reference. Revelation 21:22 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
In the great city, the holy Jerusalem (read Revelation 21:10-27) there will be no need for a Temple.

Communion

God is the answer. Psalm 42, 43

The Lord celebrated His last supper with the apostles:
Matthew 26:26-29, Mark 14:22-25, Luke 22:15-20
The Lord, through the Apostle Paul, gave us this way to commune with him.
1 Corinthians 11:23-26
The Psalmist gives us solutions to our complex problems.
Our problems are:
⇒ Inter … originate within
⇒ Outer … caused by those around us or circumstances
The Psalmist begins by telling us that we do not seek after God.
Psalm 10:4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.
Psalm 14:1-3 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Psalm 53:1-3 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God. Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Paul reminds us nothing has changed:
Romans 3:10-18 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: Their feet are swift to shed blood: Destruction and misery are in their ways: And the way of peace have they not known: There is no fear of God before their eyes.
All these indicate that no man seeks after God BUT He seeks us.
And Paul gives us instructions that he received from the Lord, a way to remember that the Lord will come again. (the reason to partake of Communion).
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, this cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.

Indwelling of the Holy Spirit

The Indwelling Presence of the Holy Spirit - Steve Evans - Medium
The Promise: (Given to Israel, Believers)

John 7:38-39 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
John 14:16-18 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
John 15:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
John 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
John 16:12-15 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

The Fulfillment: (to Jewish Believers)

Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Acts 4:8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,
Acts 6:5 And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:,
Acts 11:24 For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord.
Acts 13:9 Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him.,
Acts 13:52 And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy Ghost.

The Reminders: (to Jewish and Gentile Believers)

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.
1 Corinthians 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
1 Corinthians 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
Galatians 3:2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
Galatians 4:6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
1 John 2:24 Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.
1 John 4:13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.

Thou Shall Call His Name JESUS

The Name of Jesus by Chris Tomlin
Jesus's birth - Jesus Christ, the Lord Wallpapers and Images ...

Matthew 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus

Have you ever wondered why?
This name probably rolls off more tongues than any other… has come from more pens than any other… has altered the world more than any other… more songs written and sung than any other… it is also more miss used than any other.

JESUS… His name was Divinely chosen

God Picked it Philippians 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
Who knows the Son better than the Father Matthew 11:27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.
Angles announced it Matthew 1:20-21 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
Holy Ghost explains it Luke 1:30-31 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

JESUS… was actually named by GOD

Joseph was told Matthew 1:21
Mary was told Luke 1:31
And they obeyed Luke 2:21 And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
They somehow knew the significance of this name…
We also must know the importance of this name
JESUS… His name has meaning (Greek = Saviour Hebrew = The Lord of Salvation)
Jesus is Greek for the Hebrew Joshua
Acts 7:45 Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus (JOSHUA) into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;
Hebrews 4:8 For if Jesus (JOSHUA) had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
Joshua took the Hebrews where Moses could not
Jesus does for us what Moses (LAW) cannot
JESUS… This name identifies Him with His people (Read Matthew 1:18-25)
Matthew 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for HE shall save HIS people from their sins.
The following verses refer to HIS people, The Jews.
John 1:11-12 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
John 6:37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
John 17:11-12 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. 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.

Holy Spirit Filled

37 Bible Verses about the Holy Spirit - DailyVerses.net

Ephesians 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

Filled = Controlled

i.e. A gas tank is filled but not controlled
A car is controlled but not filled

1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.
We have a BODY, SOUL and SPIRIT and though many think soul and spirit are one, the scripture teaches otherwise.
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

God says Spirit, Soul, Body - Man says Body, Soul, Spirit

Galatians 5:18-25 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

Romans 15:13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
