I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

EVERY TIME I READ ABOUT HEALING IN THE BIBLE IT MAKES ME WANT TO WRITE SOMETHING ABOUT IT. I KNOW I MIGHT TOUCH ON THE SAME THING SOMETIMES BUT PLEASE JUST BEAR WITH ME. THERE JUST MIGHT BE SOMEONE OUT THERE THAT REALLY NEEDS TO HEAR THIS OR HAS JUST BECOME A FRIEND OF MINE ON FACEBOOK. THANK YOU.
Life Of God
June 26th
John 10:10 'The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.'
JOHN 10:7-10
The Greek word translated 'life' here is 'zoe' and it means life in the absolute sense or life as God has it. Everyone who is breathing has life in the sense of physical existence, but only those who receive Jesus can experience life as God intended it to be. Jesus came to not only
HOW GREAT WAS IT WHEN JESUS RAISED THE WIDOW'S SON FROM THE DEAD. JUST READ AND ENJOY. LUKE 7:11-15 Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went along with him. As he approached the town gate, a dead person was being carried out—the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her. When the Lord saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, “Don’t cry.” Then he went up and touched the bier they were carrying him on, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!”The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.
Hearing God's Voice
June 25th
John 10:2-3 'But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.'
JOHN 10:1-21
This verse promises all who are God's sheep that they not only can, but that they do, hear His voice. Many born-again people doubt the truth of this statement based on their experience. They don't think they can hear God's voice. However, the Word of God is true - not our experience.
The harmony between what this verse says and what our experiences say is that it is our new born-again spirit that hears God's voice. Although God has spoken and still does speak in...
WHEN I WAS WATCHING A FOOTBALL GAME LAST SEASON AND THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT "THE WALTER PAYTON NFL MAN OF THE YEAR AWARD", ONE OF THE MEN SAID HE HAD TALK WITH WALTER BEFORE HE DIED IN 1999 AND ASK HIM IF HE WAS AFRAID OF DEATH. HE SAID WALTER SAID "SURE I AM SCARED, I'VE NEVER DIED BEFORE".
Jesus Found Him
June 24th
John 9:35 'Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?'
JOHN 9:35
It is one thing to seek God; it is quite another thing to have God seek you. Jesus sought this man out when others had forsaken him. The acceptance of Jesus is worth more than everything this world has to offer This is what enables the believer to endure and even leap for joy amidst persecution.
When our sufferings in Christ abound, then the consolation of Christ abounds much more. Notice that this man's parents, who knew the truth, but refused to share it for fear of persecution, did not have Jesus seeking them out (Jn. 9:22)....
ONE OF MY GRANDSON TOLD ME THAT HE WAS BEING PAID "UNDER THE TABLE" THEREFORE HE WAS NOT GOING TO PAY INCOME TAX ON THAT MONEY. I ASK HIM IF HE KNEW THAT WAS A SIN BECAUSE HE WOULD BE LYING WHEN THEY ASKED HIM HOW MUCH DID HE EARN. I KNOW MANY PEOPLE DO CHEAT ON THEIR TAXES, IN MANY WAYS, AND I WILL HAVE TO ADMIT I HAVE DONE IT ALSO. I HAVE EVEN TRIED TO JUSTIFY IT BY SAYING THAT I WAS TAXED TOO MUCH OR THAT I HAD PAID ENOUGH DURING THE YEAR TO TAKE CARE OF MY SHARE. THIS MIGHT HAVE BEEN TRUE BUT THE PROBLEM I HAD WAS LYING ON SOME OF THE QUESTIONS AND AMOUNTS. WE CONSIDER LYING AS A "LITTLE" SIN BUT IT IS RIGHT UP THERE WITH WHAT WE CALL "MAJOR" SINS LIKE MURDER, BUT SIN IS SIN. LOOK WHAT REVELATION 21:8 SAYS ABOUT LYING. "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and...
About Those Pharisees
June 23rd
John 9:34 'They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.'
JOHN 9:34
Much of the Pharisees' problem was spiritual pride, as is very evident by this statement. They were so blinded by their arrogance that they couldn't believe anyone who hadn't been through their 'seminary' could teach them anything.
The name 'Pharisees' comes from a Hebrew word meaning 'separate.' This
