Believing In Jesus Can Be Lonely In This World

Great eagles fly alone; great lions hunt alone; great souls walk alone-alone with God. Such loneliness is hard to endure, and impossible to enjoy unless God accompanied. Prophets are lone men; they walk alone, pray alone and God makes them alone.

John 16:33 KJV
These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Why Jesus Came from the mouth of Jesus:
John 17:2-3 KJV
As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

So the question is: Do you know the only true God and Jesus Christ?  Because IF you don't then you do not have eternal life.

Believers know God in many ways, but the primary way is that believers receive the free gift of the Holy Spirit and are born of Spirit(born again).  But we also must enter into a relationship to know God.  That is a somewhat subjective thing because we cannot say, "pray for 30 minutes a day and then read bible for 30 minutes then you know God."  But we have access to God through Jesus as born again believers.  Those that diligently seek God will be rewarded.  God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.

John 12:23-26 KJV
And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.
He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

Are you following Jesus?  Do the men that teach you follow Jesus?

Jesus says above IF any man serve me, let him follow me and where I am there shall also my servant be. IF any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

So if you serve Jesus you must also follow Jesus and if you serve/follow Jesus the Father will honor.

If any man says this does not apply to believers in Jesus today then they are blind and believing a lie.  No where in scripture does it ever say that the things Jesus commands/instructs is only for Jews.  The scripture is plain, but the doctrines of man and the devil twist scriptures to shipwreck faith.

Which Covenant Was Jesus Under Before Dying on the Cross?

The answer is the Old Covenant. Galatians 4:4 KJV But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, Jesus was born under the law and was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel. Matthew 15:24 KJV But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Because Jesus lived under the covenant of law, His words line up with that covenant as He spoke to the Jews. Under the old covenant the only blood ever shed for people was animal blood which had no power to forgive sins or perfect the believer before God. (Heb. 7:19; 9:9; 10:1-4; 11:40) Animal's blood could only cover/atone for sin until the Lamb of God would come and take away the sin of the world and remove it as far as the east is from the west and remember it no more. John 1:29 KJV The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. If you are a true believer the...

Believers Have the Holy Spirit and Have Been Given Power to Use the Authority Jesus Has Obtained

Jesus sits far above all principality and power and might and dominion and over every name that is named. Believers have been given the Holy Spirit and because of that we also have been charged with going out and telling the good news to others and we are equipped to do anything that Jesus has for us to do accessing the authority placed in us through Jesus. Ephesians 1:20-21 KJV Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: After Jesus rose from the dead he said the following: Matthew 28:18-19 KJV  And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe a...

Believer You Are Righteous! White As Snow

If you are a believer in Jesus Christ you have peace with God having been reconciled with God and you have the Holy Spirit of God living in you to teach you and to comfort you and to lead you.  You are righteous in Jesus because of what He did on Calvary by the shedding of His blood.  You are forgiven of all your sin and have been translated from the Kingdom of Darkness into the Kingdom of Light. Believe it. 1 John 1:7   KJV But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. So what cleanses us from all our sin?  The blood of Jesus Christ.  And Jesus actually became sin even though he knew no sin so that we could be made righteous.  If Jesus made you righteous then you are righteous.  To disagree with that is disagreeing with what God has done.  It is not humble to say that you are not righteous, rather it is the height of pride.  Ironi...
