JESUS  THE CHRIST MINISTRIES- MISSION
 THE PHILIPPINE REPORT/NOVEMBER 2010

 

Are you a person that is jealous of others because you yourself lack or they seem to or do have more material things than you or even more human relationships or opportunities in the earth?.......it's high time you relaxed and rejoiced in the lord Jesus the Christ dear friend, you are troubled over nothing and you are missing out on nothing. The devil has lied to you, satan is a brilliant liar and so are they who follow him. The other man's grass 'seems' always greener but 'seems' means apparent and it's not in reality.

The problem is, you are not walking in 'the light of the Christ-Godliness', therefore you are not content, because you have no true revelation or understanding of what true gain, true riches and true advantage really is. You have been completely and utterly disorientated by satanic knowledge and influence......repent and be forgiven!... that a heavenly freshness may come into your life and being........ref/Hebrews 11:24-26, Acts 3:19, 23.....Selah.
"Halleluyah!..halleluyah!...My Jesus has set me free
Halleluyah!...Halleluyah!...My Jesus has set me free
Walking in the light of his Word, day after day
Halleluyah!...halleluyah!...halleluyah!...My Jesus has set me free"

"GODLINESS WITH CONTENTMENT IS GREAT GAIN"..REF/1 TIMOTHY 6:6.

When we walk in a God - like manner, all the degenerated traits of the old man, the sinfilled man/woman are put to death with 'the sword of the spirit - The Word of God'. When this comes about we fast lose our appetite for the material and human acceptance. And vehemently take on and long for more of the real treasure and the admirable character traits of the Christ's attributes.....ref/Psalm 40:4.

Yes, Godliness with contentment is great gain, the reason being, we are moving further and further away from self, sin, satan, the wrath to come and hell fire. We are starting to realise how valuable the 'Pearl of great Price - Jesus the Christ' really is. Jesus has that ability to show us where the real treasure is and let me tell you......it isn't in this world, or of this world, it is in him the Christ.

And when we come to realise, get the revelation, that no person or any material possession can really satisfy, truly fulfill or complete us, we are no longer jealous, envious, resentful or feel inferior to anyone. You only feel sad that they don't know and understand Jesus the Christ and you endeavour to help them with the bonafide truth.....ref/Jeremiah 9:23, 24.

For when we have risen above these degenerate attitudes by the grace/power of God through faith in the faith. For faith in 'the faith' activates and warrants the......'Resurrection and Revelation - Power of God'....in our lives. Arise shine for the light of the doctrine of the Christ has come and the glory of Messiah has risen upon us.....glory to the Lamb!...the Word that became flesh and dwelt among us.

WE HAVE ACCESS BY FAITH - OBEDIENCE INTO THE GRACE/POWER IN WHICH WE STAND AND REJOICE IN HOPE OF THE GLORY OF GOD .............REF/ROMANS 5:2.

Yes, it's all a matter of being content with God, he loves that, Jesus the Christ absolutely loves the idea that we his peoples and saints are content with him.  We automatically start to gain advantage over all temptations, insecurities, inabilities and instabilities, why?...the Christ knows the heart and therefore bestows 'blessings for surrendering' upon you for your heart is for him preeminently. Obedience is another word for surrender in God's dictionary.

The blessings that come to the surrendered one are from above and can never be layed hold of materially, physically or by mere mental power. The blessings of surrender are the wages for 'abiding in the vine'......freedom from known-sin in a word salvation........click.

It's the Godliness in our lives that enables us to be content. And remember, this is impossible for any human being, without holy ghost empowerment and guidance. So there is no glory for any man or woman at any stage of the 'race of faith'. People who are discontented with their lives are missing Godliness and are not being led by the spirit of holiness, for holiness is the end of self and our fickle, flakey whinging and wanting and grasping for the wind. Worship the lord in the spirit of Holiness!.....Spirit and truth!

Holiness which is honesty, truth and humility with Jesus the Christ as preeminent, delivers all partakers from worldliness and sin. Placing us in the otherworldly realm every time we face a challenge or obstacle. Brother Job said this.......

"I TREASURE THE WORDS OF YAHWEH'S, GOD ALMIGHTY'S MOUTH MORE THAN MY NECESSARY FOODS"......REF/JOB 23:12B.........click.

 

I am sure Father was impressed with Job and we have all seen the outcome and conclusion of the 'Job Story' haven't we, yes, double blessing. And while he was waiting on his 'blessing for surrendering' he was given power from on high to overcome all obstacles, this I believe is the 'beginning of the blessing for surrendering to God'.....Overcoming Power!.....what a beautiful story, what a wonderful Saviour is Jesus our Lord. Daily bread-foods is a treasure for any human body, for some it is their God but brother Job's treasure was the 'Word of God'.

Paul the apostle learnt to be content in abundance and lack, this was because he surrendered to God and died daily to his own whims, bore his thorn, picked up his cross and followed hard after the Christ. Yes, he imitated the Christ and he counted his life not dear to himself. He was content to simply have a relationship with God. Job like Jeremiah gloried in that he knew God, the God of judgement, righteousness and loving kindness. When we relish in God-Jesus the Christ we are more than content, we are blessed - heavenly happy!......click.

TAKE HEED AND BEWARE OF COVETOUSNESS FOR ONES LIFE DOES NOT CONSIST IN THE ABUNDANCE OF THE THINGS  HE POSSESSES .....REF/LUKE 12:15.

You wouldn't think so, the way the churched leaders and their congregations carry on about money, possessions and earthly success today. There is no decency or order amongst any of them, save a remnant. What I mean by decency is, scriptural alignment. And what I mean by order is properly placed priorities, this is with Jesus first, no one else or anything else, not even soul-winning..........click.

There is a wonderful Godly contentment when our lives are decent and in order and once again we are neither covetous or jealous, resentful toward others or feeling we lack anything.

We simply say, the lord is my shepherd I shall not want, for I have been delivered from those attitudes when I surrended to my God and Saviour's Will.........glory halleluyah!

Bodily exercise profits little but Godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is.....'and'......of that which is to come.....ref/1 Timothy 4:8.

FOR WE ARE COMPLETE IN THE CHRIST...WHO IS THE HEAD OF ALL PRINCIPALITY AND POWER....REF/COLOSSIANS 2:10.
When Jesus the Christ told all his willing participants, disciples to follow him he was wanting them to partake of the otherworldly life ...holiness ...everything he asks of us is for his glory and our betterment, that we may partake of his holiness. Surely holiness is the most wonderful encounter and living experience a human could know, next to the Christ Himself.

GOD CHASTENS US FOR OUR....'PROFIT - GAIN'...SO THAT WE MAY PARTAKE OF HIS HOLINESS....REF/HEBREWS 12:10
Jesus the Christ doesn't envision limited, temporary, corruptible treasure and possessions for any of his disciples, Followers, he said that eyes have not seen and ears have not heard of things he has prepared for those who love-obey him. They can only be recognised by spiritual peoples and then it is only in part, for these are far above the material and the carnal realms.

You may have wondered what some of these old tramps and hobo's are smiling at sometimes, it maybe this very point. They may very well be laughing to themselves about the rich fools and the money hungry, passing, rushing through the filthy streets of (the valley of the shadow of death) a temporary city, world, earth......ref/2 Peter 3:10-13........click

And what if you did gain all the material treasures of this earth and all the friendships of the world and all the acknowledgement of the religious peoples and the greats of the day.

Then one day, you step up to the judgement stand and the Christ says to you....."Go away from Me!"....there will be weeping and the gnashing of teeth and the last shall be first and the first shall be last in the day of The Lord.

For those who love the world and the things of the world, have not the love of Father in them and those who desire to be a friend of this world automatically make themselves an enemy of Jesus the Christ, because friendship with the world is enmity with the Christ......ref/1 John 2:15, James 4:4.

It truly is a high and the highest price to pay for a , carnally comfortable-temporary life, that will finally end in the blackness of hell fire eternal, the second death, where no one really dies but lives the eternal living death, complete with unprecedented torment and anguish, designed and planned by none other than 'the God of Love Himself........Jesus the Christ'.

For this earth and its atmosphere-heaven will pass away, even with fervent heat and then what, what shall we have, if we have all but have not the Christ as our all?.....Of what account is that one?.....(this scripture is a must to read.....ref/Isaiah 2:5-22).......Selah.

There really is nothing to be jealous about, covetous about, complaining about or to ever think you have lack, when you have the Christ and walk in obedience to the revelation-knowledge of the light of the Christ's Word-Doctrine by faith. For Jesus the Christ's teaching mixed with holy ghost's guidance and power delivers us from all known-sin, ungodly peoples and the things of this world.

Including all insecurity and degenerate attitudes, as we permit the spirit of Yahweh to lead us, up to the light-knowledge one has, for such are truly the 'Sons of God'.....ref/Romans 8:14......click.
