What saith the Scripture

"This is a faithful saying, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners;" 1st Timothy 1:15a Authorized King James Version [AKJV]. So if in Christ ["Therefore if any man be  in Christ,  he is  a new creature", not born again [Jeweish] but a "new creature old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new"] 2 Corinthians 5:17.  So then do you do what you do as if paying a debt or from thankfulness?  And how is that debt paid if you deem payment due?  Likewise, if by thankfulness how is that thankfulness shown.  Again why do you do what you do?      To consider:  "K nowing 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."  Galatia...

  Romans 2:14-16   Authorized (King James) Version:   “For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and  their  thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another; in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.” Rest assured that Paul’s gospel wasn’t “come to Jesus”; “accept Jesus and be saved”; “Just pray this prayer, Jesus: and then repeat whatever the one telling you to say says.   “Jesus died for all your sins, believe and be saved”.   On and on it goes but rarely does one hear the gospel let alone read for themselves what Paul teaches in scripture of the gospel.   The gospel also isn’t the first four books of the new testament.   The gospel isn’t John 3:16.   But what is...

  Matthew 27:45-46 Authorized King James Version [AKJV]:   “ Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.   And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?”.   Comparative scriptures from the gospels: Mark 15:41-32; Luke 23:26-49 and John 19:17-27 Sidebar: Different writers of the gospels [so called not as we have now in this the dispensation of the grace of God Ephesians 3:1-7] wrote from different perspectives as the Holy Spirit directed [2 Timothy 3:16-17].     Sidebar:   Could the Centurion of Matt 27:54, Mark 15:39 and Luke 23:47 be the same as recorded in Acts 10 by Peter?   It is most possible.   Sidebar:   The darkness as I understand it is the absence of Gods presence as seen in 2nd Thessalonians 1:8-10. Also concerning g darkness see Exodus 10:21-29, Matthew 6:23 concerning both...

 Acts 13:48   Authorized (King James) Version [AKJV]:   “And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.” Why were the Gentiles glad when they heard?   “ Wherefore remember, that ye  being  in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;    that at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:    but now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.” Ephesians 2:11-13 [AKJV]   Imagine “no hope”.   What was it that the gentiles heard?   “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; by which also ye ...

  Colossians 1:5-6   Authorized (King James) Version:   “ For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel; which is come unto you, as  it is  in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as  it doth  also in you, since the day ye heard  of it,  and knew the grace of God in truth:” “for the hope which is laid up for you in heaven,”   I am blessed in all spiritual blessings in Christ [Eph 1:3].   This world is not my home I’m just passing through, if heaven’s not my home L ORD what would I do? your angle’s beacon me from heaven's open door and I don’t feel at home in this world anymore.   When did I hear the word of truth of the gospel” that I now hope in?   I don’t know but am sure that I did, for now, I say with conviction; “For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuad...
