24.8 hours ago Hey ..im still taking in everything you wrote...reading and studying it. So im not leaving you hanging=) we are so greatful for you!
ill try to write you some time soon. I do have a question though,
if one law if followed, even manifested through your heart, arnt all the laws eventually then going to need to be manifested? whats your take on that? also whats your take on Galatians chapters 2 through 5? Aslo see
romans 3:27-28
santification- The work of God by which he progressively makes righteous those whom he has already justified ( saved by faith) is distinct from from justification always follows it. Freely by his grace. Justification is a gracious gift God extends to the repentant, beliveing sinner, wholly apart from human merit or work.
Justified- this verb and related words from the same greet root (e.g. justification), occur some thirty time in romans and are concentrated in 2:13-5:1. this legal or forensic term comes from the greek word for "righteous" and means " to declare righteous" this verdict includes pardon from the guilt and penaly of sin, and the imputation of Christs righteousnes to the believes accounts, which provides for the positive righteousness man needs to be accepted by God. God declares a sinner righteous solely on the basis of the merits of christs righteousness, who made the law perfect.
james 2:10-12 ..is summed up like this..whole law, one point- The law of God is not a series of detached injenctions but a basic unity that requires perfect love of HIM and neighbores ( matt 22:36) Although all sins are not equally damaging or heinouse, they all shatter that unity and render people transgressors, much like hitting a window with a hammer at only one point will shatter and desty the whole window. Guitly of all.
( be sure to read it )
God does not need to fullfill the old law in us, because it was already fullfilled by Jesus, thus making us able to not have concern over it and needing a sacrifice. "he has written the law on our hearts" refers to the Gentiles who are not saved..meaning they are going to be judged for unrighteousness and will have no excuse for it. Ever wonder why someone who is not saved will tell you its not good to murder? thats because God has written the law on the hearts of Gentiles, you are born BOUND to the law ...Jesus frees you from the law. Therefore to have faith which produces works, has nothing to do with the law's works..such as Deu 22.
James 2:15 Faith by itself..is dead. Justa s professed compassion without action is phony, the kind of faith that is without works is empty profession, not genuine saving faith. Demons believe, even fallen angels affirm the oneness of God and tremble at its implications. Demons are essentially orthodox in their doctrine..but orthodox doctrine by itself is no proof of saving faith. They kno the truth about God, christ and the spirit but hate it and them.
James is not contrasting two methods of salvation, instead he contracts two kinds of faith..living faith that saves and dead faith that does not. " justified by works' this does not contradict pauls clear teaching that abraham was justified before God by grace alone through faith alone . For several reasons james connnot mean that abrabam was constituted righteous before God because of his own good works. James has already emphasixed that salvation is a gracious gift. James quoted genesis 15 which forcefully flaims that god credited righteousness to abaraham solely on the basis of faith, and the work that james said justified abraham was his offering up issac ( He proved that his faith was the kind of saving faith) an event that ocurred many years after he first exercised faith and was declared righteous ( before his work, we are already righteous and sitting at the right hand of christ, God sees us now as spotless) James teaching perfectly complements pauls writing, salvation is determined by faith alone and demonstrated by faithfulness to obey gods will. ( not law)
so everyone who is being sanctified in christ has their own will given by God that is different from person to person. Everyones works will be different, and will change them and shape them as God sees fit. Its the pureity of the heart and the wilingness to obey whatever he tells you to do in this life..that will determine who is "spotless and blameless and a chaste virgin" to his eyes.
Mar 12:30 AND YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, WITH ALL YOUR MIND, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH.' This is the first commandment.
Mar 12:31 And the second, like it, is this: 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.' There is no other commandment greater than these."
For the manifestation of a pure and chaste bride will be the love of God that flows out of them and onto their neighbor. Which is why paul says to let God take delight of seeing your inner works and beauty of the heart. YOu can only start to be sanctified by loving God and seeking his righteousness. 1john 3:7
in this the children of God and the children of the devil manifest : whoever does not practice righteouness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother. For this is the message you heard from the begining, that we hould love one another. my little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth. And by this we know that we are of the truth and shall assure our hearts before Him. For if our heart condems us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things. Beloved, If our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God. and whatever we ask we receive from Him because we keep his commandments ( which means his word in greek) and dothose things that are pleasing in his sight. ( works) and this is his commandment : that we should believe on the name of his son Jesus christ and love ane another, as He gave us commandment. 1 john 4:13 by this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because he has given us of his spirit. And we have seen and testify that the fatther has sent the son as savior of the world. Whoever confesses that Jesus is the son of God , God abides in hiim and he in God. and we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love and he who abides in love abides in God and God in him.
vs 17
Love has been perfected among us in this : that we may have boldness in the day of judgment because as He is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear.
Hey i guess i wrote more than i should have=/ anyways, take some time and study these scriptures..for all i know you already agree and know all of them!=) I also want you to know that we agree with pretty much everything that you've said ..its been a blessing. This is the only thing im studying that you mentioned so far which is why we
've been writting to begin with. If for some reason im not getting it and you already know all this, then please explain to be better.
Love ,
your sister in the Lord,
Melissa
ps. God also gives us each different measures of faith, therefore your works with that faith will be different. Like me, im convicted now with waering skirts outside the house becaue i know that pants make men stumble..therefore im held accountable to that knowledge and feel convicted. If i shared that with someone who was a babe in christ, their faith was small..they would probably not care about it. God asks of us different things..to please him. For some it might be the conviction of never owning a House or stepping foot in a shopping mall. a work could also be to go witness to my sister...because of my faith. 421Honeymoonbaby -
Thursday, 24 July Hey, whats up with the dvd ad on your page for " The God who wasnt ther?" thats weird..
anywho...I read all of your e-mail and took some time to think and talk to my husband about it..and the Lord. Here are my thoughts...you might be surprised.
I looked up Deu22 becaue i know that is a popular scripture for reasons why women should not dress like men. However after studying it in Matthew henrys commentary which breaks it down for you..I find it meaning what i thought it always meant, which was basically God telling us to be careful not to be homosexual...that it is an abomination to him for us to reverse our roles. That our clothes defined our sexuality. It has to mean this because for the Lord to say it is an abomination which is pretty steap in the sin ladder. There are only a handful of those and being Gay is one of them. However if it did mean just outer weare of grament, then why isnt it an abomination to not wear a head dress? or long hair? which is only mentioned in the New testament by paul. Yes paul says to be modest..and to not MERELY make it about your outward appeareance. Merely meant he knew women would care about their looks because of their husbands..to please their husbands but to not over due it, to keep it modest. They had problems in the church then with women coming in with HUGE headdresses on that had Gold and such on and braided hair, it it was causing their poor sisters in the Lord to stumble. I also believe He was saying to be Modest as in showing skin as well. Paul addresses the hair and head covering issue , both being an option of conviction between you and the lord, but not nesseccary. He does not address women be bound to wear skirts. I get very weird when there are "laws" being put down for certian areas of life. Paul also address this, as he says that we have all freedoms of Christ and that the OLD law has been put away, and the new law is CHRIST crusified..and that we should not have any MAN bound us to their laws...lest we then stumble into legalism, and pride and judgment. That is why is it so important to have Gods love and his grace. Do i believe that grace covers everything?..well according to scripture it does. Should be take advantage of it ? NO i dont believe that at all. I couldnt help but think that if i were to put the law of women not to wear pants in my heart and had not room for grace, i would find myself at odds with the women who did not believe that. I think that is what paul was telling us to be careful about in Romans 14. Those who eat and are convicted of their food, are in sin. Its all about what the Lord has shown you and convicted you about personally with Jesus..not a law. upon discussing this with my husband, he had a good point as a man. He said that Pants are actually a big problem with him and making hiim stumble. He talked to me about how we have a duty to make sure we dont cause other people to stumble and to keep those that are not saved around us..to save them from themselves because they have no choice but to sin. I agreed with him. would wearing skirts help my brothers and unsaved people around me not sin? therefore keeping my heart clean with the lord because we are accountable for our knowledge? YES it would. It is very wise to wear skirts because of this....not just dressing modesly...( baggy pants or shirts) but to go even farther and give that up to the Lord, to wear only skirts? absolutely. Its very wise for a women to choose to do this..and im sure its well pleaseing to the Lord, for the sacrifice of your flesh to do so. My husband knows that i have talked about wearing skirts for the lord, the issue just keeps coming up!!!! i keep ignoring it! My husband said point blank that it is no coincidence that this issue keeps coming up! So....i am very humbly going to submit to what i think the lord used you to show me....which is to change my dress...drastically...and wear skirts outside of the house. as much as my flesh hates this, my spirit is happy to please the lord because im confident that its what he wants. Now, i dont believe in making it a law for all women. But its very important that they have the knowledge of how it is more submissive and wise because of men and their wicked hearts. ( we all have wicked hearts) I do believe its being "wise and serpant harmless as a dove" as paul says.
I do believe that God wants a chaste virgin..however its not about your outside garments like the old testament. Its the inner man. Keeping your feet washed by Jesus everyday to present him a suitable sacrifice..as we carry our cross daily with Jesus..and crusify our flesh.
om 2:28 For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh;
Rom 2:29 but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God.
Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin. Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith.
Gal 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
1Co 7:34 There is a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares about the things of the world—how she may please her husband.
( dress, physical fitness) all ok to care about for your husband.
anyways,
Thank you so much for your e-mail...God used it to show me yet again that he wants me to drastically change my clothes outside the house! ( i dont know when i can actually go buy some skirts...i dont have any) but the Lord knows!
=)
God bless!
Melissa

Wednesday, 23 July to be happy is circumstantial..to have Joy is everlasting.
something I thought of one day as my hubby and I were sitting outside listening to the birds. 421Honeymoonbaby -
Wednesday, 23 July John15-
basically says that if we Love the Lord and we love eachother and follow Gods commandments ( in greek means his word, the bible) then our JOy will be full. Jesus came to give us JOy and everlasting life. Loving one another is being Jesus. Love never fails. As much as we are here for our fathers business, which is to save souls, i think the church is soooo dry when it comes to loving on one another. Jesus tells us not to forget our first love. Him. The church that is to be raptured ( the bride) does not forget their first love. our first commandment..to love one another. ( john 15-17) The chruch today loves in a carnal way ..conditional...because thats how the flesh loves. I believe we have to actively seek the Lords love which is perfect..otherwise it is not from him. God's love has power. 2tim1-7 For God has not given us the spirit of Fear, but of power, love and sound mind. ( holy spirit)
He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.1Co 13:2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 1Jn 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him. .
just some stuff that we have been studying lately.

Wednesday, 23 July Hey, i was sharing with my husband your friendship and we were wondering where you went to church. We dont meet many people who are so convicted with the word...and are bible taught like your church..its hard to find these days=) ( as you know) which is probably why you asked me too!!! I know my pastor tells us not to ask that, cuz we are all in the body of christ no matter what church we go to..but we were just curious if you dont mind=) ....so how are you doing today? hows your little girl? ( shes so cute btw) 421Honeymoonbaby -
Wednesday, 23 July Hey....i love that scripture and so far in everything that we have been through it has proven itself over and over again. My husband talked to me yesterday and said we just arent having enough faith. seems to always be the problem with us! however its my husband that prays at night and asks for more faith all of the time. I tell hiim that God answers your prayers..and the other ones we been asking for too! Like making us stronger christians and thankful..and better used by you.. pretty heart felt...so im sure this has something to do with making us more like Jesus " Romans 8:28 421Honeymoonbaby -
Tuesday, 22 July Hey i was wondeirng what you were talking about deborah? the only thing i know about her is that she was a judge. The only female judge.and forgive me but i get really weird when women bring her up because i know alot of women use her as an excuse to not be submissive to " women are to not have authority over men" I just got done talking to my sister about it.....dont mean to rabbit trail or anything ..I just didnt understand her being relevent to the end time events is all. =) oh and thank you for all the scriptures..my well is dry for now....we just came out of a tribulation in our life..and im just...not with it right now. we need a big dose of gods oil and strength right now and its nowhere in sight.. Well its there..just alot of satan these days.

Tuesday, 22 July I agree with you about how america has purposed to not acknowledge God. =) Your right on the moneY!!!! and your right she does set a lot of dates....we dont usually bet on them, but she does have alot to offer. I dont really get a check in my spirit about her. I think she loves the Lord. 421Honeymoonbaby -
Tuesday, 22 July hmm..so your saying the judgment that is mentioned in those scriptures are is talking about not going through the tribulation? I already belive the Bride does not go through the tribulation...I think the Bride gets raptured before the tribulation...however i think its only a handful of us...those that confess sins daily and as jesus says they are without Blame. Paul writes almost everything to tell us how to strive to make the rapture "running a race" and to pray yourself worthy of it. In revelation it speaks of two churches that make it through ( not litteral church) as you said. However the door is only open for one church ( the rapture) and is closed to the other church for a time. ( until the trib is over and is entered into Gods wrath) so then the door opens to the other church. Revelation 4 i think. I makes sense to me when you read all the scripture to back it up. Plus i know in my soul that if you have to pray yourself worthy, then you must have to be doing something worthy of being the bride. ( salvation is free however)
thats what i meant..but if im wrong then thats ok....i dont think i can go wrong with trying to be ready for the rapture...cuz its going to happen whether thats correct or not. ( my church doesnt embrace 2 raptures, i've only read about it on the site I gave you and it makes sense) 421Honeymoonbaby -
Tuesday, 22 July read this one too, it also talks about the lunar eclipses
http://64.235.38.102/agee/procon1423.html 421Honeymoonbaby -
Tuesday, 22 July btw..thats really interesting about the pope. IM sure it wasnt a coinsidence either...there are no coinsidences with the Lord. Let me know what you think about her page...beware, you could spend hours reading it! btw i think the trib is going to start late this year or next..i mean it has too because God said that after Isreal became a nation in 1948 that generation will not pass before the coming of the Lord. A generation is 48 and 3rd year in jewish..and well if you subtract the years of tribulation and wrath, you have around this year to the next. ( she talks about it) Dont know if you believe in the rapture or not but she talks about that as well. She also has some really good scriptures on the reason people think we arnt going to have one and why..becuase some of the versus do talk about saints in the trib and some dont why? well thats because there may be two raptures. She also talks about that quiet often, we take it under consideration because the biblical verses she shows us are quite amazing..and they make sense with revelation 4-7 ( the perfect church and the ok church) One that made it , and one that needed to be cleansed before it came to the lord, but still didnt make it through the wrath part ) because he says he has not appointed us to wrath. 421Honeymoonbaby -
Tuesday, 22 July Hey heres a website you can look at that talks alot about prophsey ....My pastor looked at the website and said it seemed trust worthy, the woman who writes it is in her 80's. She does like to predict dates, but we dont take them at full value, but she does have a lot to offer!
Heres what she wrote about the blood moons http://64.235.38.102/agee/procon1422.html
heres her home page :

Tuesday, 24 June Hi, thank you for your message. It's a relief to know that what I'm feeling sounds normal. It's just been a little scary and frustrating because anytime I tell a friend or a family member what I'm going through they all think that my incision is infected or something - just what I need to hear. My baby seems more himself today, I don't know what was going on with him the last couple of days. I guess it's what everyone said, he was going through a growth spurt. I never imagined being a new mom would be this tough but it's been very helpful coming on this site because everyone is so supportive. Thank you & I hope all is well with you & your little one! malachi456 -
