And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

“Without repentance there is no salvation. This was the sign from the law that God’s Only Begotten Son would be lifted up and His precious blood would be shed to blot out sin once and for all. For the joy that was set before Him, He fulfilled the law and became a curse for those that looked upon Him. (1) He had joy to fulfill God’s word so that He might gather more lambs and sheep to himself. So that they might inherit eternal life. (1) (2)

With God all things are possible, and all things with God will always be according to His Word! He is holy! In a similar fashion to wealth in this world, and how it is valued by the hearts of men, beauty is similar. There are women that are vile like Jezebel who was the daughter of Eth Baal and she made her outward beauty her strength, and there are women who are like Esther. The Lord used her outward beauty for the salvation of the righteous who loved His Name, that was placed upon His people. Please be like Esther, and glorify the Lord's name with me. Keep yourself pure, and undefiled. Little children keep yourself from idols.”

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

“Those that love the Lord Jesus Christ and choose to retain their virginity and be married are a light and a lamp to this world. They are a testament to the hope that is in the Messiah of Israel, salvation is of the Jews; godly, and righteous marriage can only exist through salvation. In the same way that Noah was a testament to men in his day that judgement was coming, all those that are born again are a testament to this dying world that is quickly passing away. God is patient, and He will return quickly riding on the clouds. I hope you are always His beloved clothed in white.”

He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

“Jesus the Only Begotten Son of God fulfilled the righteous requirement of the law. Repent, while there is still time. Sin is never profitable, it only destroys lives. Please do not love your own flesh and blood (the family you were born into) more than the Only begotten Messiah of Israel. Even sinners love those who love them, and some unbelievers love their own family. If you are in Christ, you are bone of His bone and flesh of His flesh.

I look into Peter’s life and remember that he denied the Lord Jesus Christ three times, and a day is like a thousand years and a thousand years is like a day. It’s so much better to be a servant of Christ than a minister of sin. The Lord Jesus Christ said get behind me Satan and He gave Peter over to teach him not to blaspheme. All riches, everything a person owns in this life will one day wear old like a garment. Why would you want your reward in this life? His word is such a comfort. Please live godly lives through the power of His Resurrection to hasten His coming. He rides upon the clouds and walks on the wings of the wind!

Please ask that I will be truly profitable to Him one day. Every person that loves the Lord Jesus Christ will be found clothed in white, in His wedding garment, when celebrating the Passover in glory. One day, those who are chosen will be in heaven, the New Jerusalem.

Look, I have given to the poor; and seen have His glory. I would just be dirt apart from Him. He's the One that has given me Eternal Life. (1) (2)

Of course, I am nothing close to Judah, Noah, and especially not Jeremiah; the Lord Jesus, the Only Begotten Son of the Living God, He has shown me mercy! Jesus is Lord! I am not worthy to be considered a son, but surely His love is beyond compare. He abolished the laws and ordinances against me at the cross. I am His my beloved, and He is mine, I am His purchased possession (1). He is holy, worship Him that lives forever.”

After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized.

“It’s beyond magnificent, His Name is Wonderful, and He is the Almighty Councilor. And John told Him, you should be baptizing me! Think upon those glorious saints that were baptized by Christ. Speaking of spiritual things, they were baptized into His death, buried with Christ in death, and then risen with Him in newness of Eternal Life, and seated with Him in heavenly places in Christ. They became a part of His Spiritual Body that day. He is the Light of the World.

Think upon being in the New Jerusalem where the Lamb will be its Light. You are the light of the world if you love Him, and His commandments are not burdensome. Rejoice before Him, that you have been given the opportunity to obey Him.

The exceedingly righteous and heavily persecuted Jewish prophets rejoiced to see His day. There is no one like the One True Messiah of Israel. He was born of a virgin in Bethlehem of Judea. Joseph of the tribe of Judah; he covered Mary’s shame that she needlessly had, and she was an imperfect woman in that day. Of course, she believed in the One True Messiah; her Son. And her faith was credited as righteousness, just like her beloved father Abraham. The Spirit of the Most High God, overshadowed her, and she was sheltered by Him, similar to being in the shadow of a booth. Remember, the Messiah was conceived by virgin birth. I would encourage you to be wise.”

Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to Him, saying, “Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask.”

And He said to them, “What do you want Me to do for you?”

They said to Him, “Grant us that we may sit, one on Your right hand and the other on Your left, in Your glory.”

“I think that James and John really loved the Lord, not only did they know how Holy He was; but they still do. Surely, they are rejoicing with the Light of the World as we speak. They wanted to be near Him forever. They loved Eternal Life, remember Jesus is the Resurrection and the Life.”

But Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?”

They said to Him, “We are able.”

“Surely James, and John understood that that they would have to suffer a death in a similar likeness to that of Christ. There are good works, and gifts prepared in advance for those who love Him.

Jesus walks amongst the lamp stands. He works through His precious possessions with all power and might. He has purchased those who believe in Him. Be believing today.

These are the Lord’s words spoken through Paul, he was Saul and he was zealous without knowledge. He was seeking a righteousness he could never own or possess, at that time, according to the futility of his fathers that did not look to the Messiah of Israel for Salvation.

I hope he’s a minister by whom you have believed. Your labor is never in vain if the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you.”

Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

“Let’s remember Paul’s light affliction as he spoke of below. He is rebuking those that would like to receive false apostles. The honest truth is I have never been persecuted in the likeness of Paul, at most I can be considered a child. Please grow beyond childish things and walk in love. While doing so please mind your own affairs as a good Christian soldier with those in everyday life that are living lawlessly, and have not inherited salvation. God’s mercies are new every morning. Please ask that He would enlighten your eyes, and give you wisdom so that you do not throw your pearls to swine. Nothing will ever be more beautiful than God’s written word. All work is noble for those that are born again. The righteous purifies himself even as he is pure. Please obey every law and ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake, and honor those in authority on behalf of Christ. He bought His beloved with a price. Remember, you are that pearl if you have believed in Him.

Those that are Jewish by first birth, are how we understand election. Isn’t it glorious that Paul was born in Israel during Jesus’ day? I hope He is a minister by whom you believe today.”

Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? So am I. Are they ministers of Christ?—I speak as a fool—I am more: in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths often. From the Jews five times I received forty stripes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods; once I was stoned; three times I was shipwrecked; a night and a day I have been in the deep; in journeys often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of my own countrymen, in perils of the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren; in weariness and toil, in sleeplessness often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness— besides the other things, what comes upon me daily: my deep concern for all the churches. Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is made to stumble, and I do not burn with indignation?

If I must boast, I will boast in the things which concern my infirmity. The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying. In Damascus the governor, under Aretas the king, was guarding the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desiring to arrest me; but I was let down in a basket through a window in the wall, and escaped from his hands.

“Yes, the Lord is merciful to all who call upon Him in Truth. Do you realize how great Paul is? I hope he can be considered a minister by whom you have believed in the Messiah of Israel. This is love, not that we loved God but that He loved us and sent His Son as a propitiation for our sin. This is witnessed in the lives of these men.”

Blows that hurt cleanse away evil, As do stripes the inner depths of the heart.

“When those who are faithful and obedient to Jesus are persecuted for righteousness sake; even in death, they bless the living and the dead that are in Christ. Those that are in Christ never die, they just awake in His presence.

The blood that is shed of faithful martyrs speaks of better things than the blood of Abel, and the blood of Zechariah the son of Berechiah. It speaks of the New Covenant of His Blood.

This is Faith that is refined by trials, and that’s all death is for a believer in Christ; it’s only a trial. Especially the righteous deaths of great disciples like James and John. I hope they are ministers by whom you have believed.”

For you have not come to the mountain that may be touched and that burned with fire, and to blackness and darkness and tempest, and the sound of a trumpet and the voice of words, so that those who heard it begged that the word should not be spoken to them anymore. (For they could not endure what was commanded: “And if so much as a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned or shot with an arrow.” And so terrifying was the sight that Moses said, “I am exceedingly afraid and trembling.”)

But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels, to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are registered in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect, to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.

“Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His godly ones. The death of His saints and the blood of His saints that is spilled at the hands of the unrighteous for righteousness sake, also speaks of better things. Their blood, that is shed, speaks of Jesus. Jesus is the High Priest of Our Confession, He is the Chief Apostle of Our Faith.”

So Jesus said to them, “You will indeed drink the cup that I drink, and with the baptism I am baptized with you will be baptized; but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it is prepared.”

“His disciples were displeased that the others wanted to be closer to the Lord in Power and Glory. The knew that the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are One in Christ, and that Jesus is the Only Begotten Son of the Living God. He is the Son of God and the Son of Man. He is the Messiah in the likeness of David, and the Messiah in the likeness of Joseph. The other faithful disciples may have wanted to reign with Him as Joseph did as well. To the pure all things are pure. (1) The pure in heart will see God.

Nothing in this world will fulfill you outside of obedience to His Word, the Christian Scriptures. He will make all things new, in a better fashion than they were when Adam was first created in the garden of eden. This is speaking of the New Jerusalem, and beyond.”

And when the ten heard it, they began to be greatly displeased with James and John. But Jesus called them to Himself and said to them, “You know that those who are considered rulers over the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant. And whoever of you desires to be first shall be slave of all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.”

"I would like to remind you to enjoy the priviledge of being His servant, the Lord's disciple. He is returning quickly. Please serve Him regularly in a church that teaches the whole council of God. His Spirit will lead you into all truth. Thank you for showing me kindness, please be encouraged; and always remember His Word.

A gentile does not need to convert to Judaism to be an inward Jew. Circumcision is of the heart, through faith in the Messiah of Israel, Jesus of Nazareth. Please be believing.

In truth, a gentile by first birth can never be considered a Jew inwardly without repenting and looking to the Son of Man for salvation. A tree is known by its fruit.

He loves His True Children. Moses loved them too! Are you a Jew for Jesus?

Jesus is Lord of lords and King of kings! I hope Isaiah is a minister by whom you believe.

If you would enjoy helping children, families, widows or orphans in Israel that may not yet know the True Messiah of Israel, Jesus of Nazareth. He was born of a virgin in Bethlehem of Judea, here is an opportunity: Colel Chabad. In the Name of Jesus, please pray for them!

Would you like to be a little like Job? (1)

I hope you walk just like Jesus did. He scattered abroad, He gave to the poor, His Righteousness endures forever.

There's no one like the Lord Jesus Christ, please always worship Him, and no other!

There is hope in Christ. I hope you enjoy serving Him eternally!
