The spirit of God speaks to us and through us all the time . . . said this on Saturday "him that hath called us to glory and virtue"

FAITH IS LIVING IN THE
HIGH EXPECTATION OF GOD AND NOT LOW EXPECTATION OF EVIL AND THE DEVIL.

Being cautious and "realistic" is one thing but living in the fearfulness of unbelief is the sin that got the ancient children of Israel into trouble with God.

Let us be bold brother and expect great things for our families from our great God.

That's the leadership
of the Father.

"him that hath called
us to glory and virtue"

WHAT IS GOSPEL ?

"he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself." - Luke 10

I cannot tell my family that Gods laws don't matter because of grace!

"this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous."

+++++++

Faith in God leaves no
room For failure or fear

Our God is 100% dependable I won't succeed because
I keep Gods commandments
But because I want
to and I try to

His grace covers the
'compliance gap'.

++++++
My whole life should be geared to keeping His commandments !!!

I can't just ignore them

"Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you"

+++++++
. . .




THE GOSPEL:
1. God gives law
Man disobeys - this (message) produces guilt and guilt produces shame and separation. Man is now in a state of disagreement with God his maker.

2. RECONCILIATION: God gives grace. Shows the penalty for law-breaking is death, the death of Jesus. Man must now believe . . .
AND OBEY !!!!!!

+++++++

Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. - 2 Corinthians 5:20

+++++++

We fail to spread the gospel if we never mention Gods the Fathers laws and Jesus commands
Right ?

+++++++

We fail to spread the gospel if we never mention Gods the Fathers laws and Jesus commands
Right ?

+++++++

Grace is always in the context of laws,

YOU MUST PAY YOUR INSURANCE PREMIUMS . . . That's the law . . . BUT you will be allowed grace for 30 days after the due date

The grace does not exempt me from the requirement of the law in fact I GOT THE GRACE BECAUSE OF THE LAW !!!

+++++++

We must teach our families Gods laws and Gods grace the gospel is
LAW & GRACE

GRACE WITHOUT LAW IS NOT GOSPEL AND WILL NOT BRING SALVATION

LAW WITHOUT GRACE IS NOT GOSPEL AND WILL NOT BRING SALVATION

"the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world


Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people,

zealous of good works.

These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.


THE WORKS DON'T
PRODUCE OR CAUSE
THE SALVATION

but


The salvation produces and causes Good Works !!

Amen ?

Law is the
centerpiece
of Love

The extent to which we love our wives is the extent to which we are willing to ?

A) cooperate with
B) give
C) instruct

Adam "cooperated"
Abraham "cooperated"
to the point of compromising Gods instruction (commands).

Wives will usurp if allowed

Brother Bill reminded me that God gave Adam the instruction and held him accountable.

The husband is to COOPERATE with the wife only to the extent that Gods INSTRUCTION allows.

"suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence."

Jezebel his wife said unto him, Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? arise, and eat bread, and let thine heart be merry . . .

CAREFUL WHEN a female spouse tries to instruct or "teach" the male
ALWAYS A RED FLAG !!!!

Revelation 2:20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.

Don't be fooled
There are 2 manifestations of a usurper 'spirit'
At work in the lives
And minds of fathers
And families.

"Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings"

There is:
1. Delilah the 'recruiter'And
2. Jezebel the 'destroyer'

They are "seducing spirits"

The recruiter is out in the
Streets all day everyday and
In the marketplace and the
Media, scantily clad or nude
Sometimes they are well dressed and friendly !!! WOW but seductive.

"Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner . . . she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows. Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee."

This usurper manifests in our women
today just as from the beginning in the garden manifestation of "the serpent" saying ignore Gods instruction (laws)

a modern day manifestation in these United States is the idol or statue to (of) liberty that represents an idea that says I am free to do whatever I choose, I am accountable to no one; it is the spirit of lawlessness which operates rampantly today

Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.

DO WE TEACH OUR FAMILIES . . .
Putting them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work ?

We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.


And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.


And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.



Little children, keep
yourselves from idols.

Amen.


So . . . It's interesting to notice our women slip in and out if these various "modes" even our wives slip into the controlling mode or the seducing mode when in fact the only legitimate mode is
the cooperating-with-us-as-we-cooperate-with-God mode.

Right ?
