Isaiah 61:1,2 || Our LORD JESUS CHRIST preach good tidings to meek & broken hearted

Isaiah 61:1,2

1 The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound. 

2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God to comfort all that mourn. 

Our LORD JESUS CHRIST read this same Scripture in Synague and applied it for Himself. Luke 4:17,18,21

How He was qualified for this work? - The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me. Is 61:1 After getting baptized from John the Baptist, the Spirit of the LORD descended from Heaven like a Dove and lightning on JESUS CHRIST. Mat 3:16 The true peace giver brings the Gospel to the meek and broken heart. He invites all who labor and are heavy laden to come to Him, 

and promises to give rest. Mat 11:28 

After being died for our sins on the cross, He went and proclaimed to the spirits in prison (Paradise). He led the captivity (spirits which was in Paradise) captive and opened the gate of Heaven to them.

1 Peter 3:19, Eph 4:8

He proclaimed the acceptable year of the LORD ~ 

(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, And in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

2 Corinthians 6:2 

If you are reading this, it is not any coincidence. It is the opportunity God given.  Are you sure about your eternity? If you died today, where you will be? You may be a good person, you may did charity, you may not be a thief / murderer / aduterer. But it is necessary for you to repent of trusting on your works and put your entire faith on Christ's Atonement. Believe that HE died on the cross paying all your sins, buried and rose again. (1 Cor 15:3,5) Believing this life saving Gospel can save you and give you the Assurance. God bless.

Whose Garments? Youth Message / Worship Thought (31st May, 12:00 pm)

Hey, I could not hold the Joy I have discovering the Soteriology. See Isaiah 59:17, It is GOD who wore the righteousness as a breastplate and and helmet of salvation on HIS head. By bearing all our sin upon His shoulder and died in our place (penal substitution), HE gave us His own Garments: Righteousness (Breastplate), Helmet of Salvation, etc.,. That's why it is called the Armour of GOD. Believe it or not, inorder to cloth you with HIS Garments Jesus Christ hanged on the Cross naked. Inorder to restore the relationship of God the Father, the begotten Son was forgotten by God. HE lost HIS all Glory to save the Lost. Take a minute and meditate how much God loved us and gave HIS only begotten Son and eternal blessings. 

For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.

Isaiah 59:17

... and having on the breastplate of righteousness; ...And take the helmet of salvation, [and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:]

Ephesians 6:14, 17 (see also 1 Thes 5:8)

Isaiah 53:1-3 Sermon || Bro Andrew Kingsly Raj

Isaiah 53:1‭-‬3

Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed? For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

Isaiah 53:1-3

1 Who hath believed our report? ~

It is reported openly and publicly, not whispered in a corner, or confined to the schools, but proclaimed to all and it is so faithful a saying, and so well worthy of all acceptation, that one would think it should be universally received and believed. Yet most people (that live in utter darkness) lay their hands upon their eyes and refuse to seek the Marvelous light. (John 12:38, Rom 10:16)

2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: ~ 

He grew up as a tender plant, silently and insensibly, and without any noise, as the corn, that tender plant, grows up, we know not how. (Mark 4:27). Christ rose as a tender plant, which, one would have thought, might easily be crushed, or might be nipped in one frosty night. The gospel of Christ, in its beginning, was as a grain of mustard-seed, so inconsiderable did it seem. (Matthew 13:31,32.) 

It was thought no good thing could come out of it. (John 1:46)

he hath no form nor comeliness and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him ~ 

It was expected that he should have some uncommon beauty in his face and person, which should charm the eye, attract the heart, and raise the expectations of all that saw him. But there was nothing of this kind in him not that he was in the least deformed or misshapen, but he had no form nor comeliness, nothing extraordinary, which one might have thought to meet with in the countenance of an incarnate deity. Those who saw him could not see that there was any beauty in him that they should desire him, nothing in him more than in another beloved, Song of Song of Solomon 5:9. Joseph loved by his father more than anybody. Moses when he was born was exceedingly fair. (Acts 7:20; Hebrews 11:23) David when he was anointed was of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to, 1 Samuel 16:12. But our Lord Jesus had nothing of that to recommend him. 

3 He is despised and rejected of men a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

We never read that he laughed, but often that he wept. Lentulus, in his epistle to the Roman senate concerning Jesus, says, "he was never seen to laugh " and so worn and macerated was he with continual grief that when he was but a little above thirty years of age he was taken to be nearly fifty. (John 8:57.)

"We hid as it were our faces from him, looked another way, and his sufferings were as nothing to us though never sorrow was like unto his sorrow. Nay, we not only behaved as having no concern for him, but as loathing him, and having him in detestation."

Let we be esteem and receive HIM, the Corner Stone for his holiness, whom rejected by men that we might be Saved. 

Cursed SDA (Ellen G White)

Why the Letter to Galatians (St Paul) curse every Seventh Day Adventists?

knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. Gal 2:16 

I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain. Gal 2:21

For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. Gal 3:10‭-‬11 

And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them. Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. Gal 3:12‭-‬14 

Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. Gal 3:24‭-‬25 

And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

Gal 4:6‭-‬7 

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

Gal 5:1 

Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

Gal 5:4 , Gal 5:13,14

For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh. But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. Gal 6:13-15

Our LORD JESUS CHRIST is Almighty Isaiah 9 

And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Acts 16:31

Another Roman Catholic who doesn't know the Gospel

We all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. (Rom 2:12) And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment. (Heb 9:27)

We cannot pay back any of our possessions as penality. The Bible says,"None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him: (For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:) That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption." Psalms 49:7-9

Then How can a man be justified before the Holy God which dwells in the most holy place and have the eyes which cannot see sin?

Let us examine ourself, (Exodus 20)

• Thou shalt not kill.  (Ex 20:13)

Mat 5:21,22 

Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca ("You fool!"), shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. 

• “You shall not commit adultery. (Exo 20:14)

Mat 5:28  But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. 

• Thou shalt not steal. (Exo 20:15) 

Rev 21:8  But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. 

As your debt is like a mountain above your whole life, you are worthy to be cast into the Lake of fire forever.

Is there a way to escape the judgment. 

Yes, Jesus Crist is the way to escape Hell and enter Heaven.

Joh 3:16  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. 

God sent His only begotten Son to be bruised for our sins (iniquities). Jesus Christ by died on the Cross by shedding all His blood to pay all your depts in full to redeam you. He was buried. But He arose from the dead as He already said and proved His diety. (1 Cor 15:1-4, 1 Cor 7:23, Mat 26:61)

Then, How can we be saved? 

Act 16:30,31  

And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house." 

The Bible promises, "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus" (Rom 8:1)

Rom 1:17  For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

John 14:3  

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

Ed Lueck: Would you want to slip back in time 40 or 50 years?

- Ed Lueck

IF YOU HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SLIP BACK IN TIME 40 OR 50 YEARS WOULD IT BE TO YOU A BENEFIT?

I ask this because I clearly remember my wild 20s, before I came to know Jesus Christ as my Friend, LORD, and Saviour!  

Before I really knew my Jesus, I did a lot of crazy things.  I totalled three automobiles, never being injured.  I had many girlfriends, owned my own house, and had a teaching job.

But something was missing in my life!  I didn't know the LORD who created me yet was still looking out for me because He KNEW that one day I would receive Him as my Friend and Saviour.  In all my last 25 years of trouble, I've never had a better Friend!

Now I am much older and wiser as I depend upon the Lord Jesus for my life's direction. 

So...would I want to go back to my former days and have another shot at them?

NOPE!

With all of my many serious health issues, AND God getting me through EACH one EACH day, I'm truly amazed that I'm still alive!  So are my Christian friends, who lift me up in prayer every day!  I'm so thankful for them!  

I know that one reason why God keeps me going is to write these articles.  I also, as Deacon of our church, try to be an encouragement to those who need it.  So many are discouraged and confused today!  It IS a very crazy time to be alive!

Now my question to you is...if you could go back in time, would it make any difference in your relationship with God?

ONE THING I KNOW, without Jesus Christ as your Friend and Saviour, your life is STILL empty and pointless.  

Though my ending days are filled with sickness and trouble, my God has never left me alone to have to deal with my problems by myself!

He promised to never leave nor forsake me!

Hebrews 13:5 "Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee."

When you trust in Jesus Christ and receive Him as your LORD and Saviour, ALL of His promises to Christians are yours.  

Believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross, paying for your sins that you could never pay for, that He was buried, but that three days later He arose from the dead, according to the scriptures!  He could do this because He was God on this earth!  He did it for ALL sinners who call upon Him to be saved!

I wouldn't trade my frail life now for all of the "so called FUN" I had 50 years ago because the world was corrupt then, just as now, only WE DON'T RECOGNIZE IT!

Choose Jesus Christ to save you from the horrible future that awaits those on this earth, probably pretty soon!

No Jesus, no life!

Know Jesus, know life everlasting!

John 6 doesn't talk about Eucharist

John 6:53-59  

53. Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

54. Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

55. For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

56. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

57. As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

58. This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.

59. These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.

John 6:48-58 has nothing to do with our taking Communion. We have to study and rightly divide the word of God (2 Tim 2:15).

The Bible says, "By grace are ye saved through faith" in Eph 2:8. Then how does Christ command his followers to do a work to obtain life. No way. Jesus Christ is unlocking a great mystery over here. He is prophecying about how he is going to die. 

He was wounded in flesh for our transgression and was bruised for our iniquities (Isa 53:5) He shed His blood paying our dept and redeemed us (1 Pet 1:19). "Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. (Jn 6:53)" simply means, Except we trust in the Son of Living God (the saving Gospel 1 Cor 15:1-4), we have no life. There is no need to eat Christ's body and blood. God created us Man and Woman; not Vampairs/Cannibalists. Right! How can I say this? Christ also said the same in verse 47.

"Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life" (John 6:47). See, who is going to have everlasting life. He that believes on Jesus Christ. 

Counter argument: If you say, we have to eat and drink Christ's body and blood literally inorder to obtain life. Then Christ would have to eat the flesh and drink the blood of living Father according to verse 57. 

Jn 6:57. 👉 As the living Father hath sent me, and 👉 I live by the Father:👈 

👉 so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

How can it be! Did you understood these verses were nothing to do with our Holy Communion? I'm not against to taking Holy Communion. But you must know. There is no such a thing like Transubstantiation or Consubstantiation. Christ commanded us to do it in remembrance of Him (Lk 22:19). 

Trust in Jesus Christ, the Son of living God for your Salvation. Believe he was died on the cross, paying your sin, and was buried, but three days later, He arose from the dead according to the Scripture foretold (John 3:36, 1 Cor 15:1-4).
