Word of God 1c: Rebuking

I greet and welcome you all in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. So far in our word of God series I talked about what the word of God and the scriptures are and meant. I also spoke about and defined what the word teaching meant. All this was done expounding on 2 Timothy 3:16-17 from the NIV. From where I explained the purpose of the scriptures(the recorded spoken word of God). This next word that will be defined and discussed in God's curriculum will be the word rebuking.
  • Rebuke- Both the Webster's Dictionary and the Roget's Thesaurus defines the word rebuke in the following manner:
  1. Words expressive for STRONG disapproval.
  2. To castigate for the PURPOSE of improving.
  3. To criticize for a fault or OFFENSE.
  4. To criticize or reprove SHARPLY.
So when the Apostle Paul tells Timothy that the scriptures are also for rebuking(NIV) this is the message he is communicating to us of the church:
     Rebuking is a reprimand from God with sharp words. Expressing God's STRONG disapproval as well as HIS dissatisfaction with our words, thoughts, and actions as his people. By calling to our attention those offenses and behaviors that are contrary to his holy word and are in violation of HIS commandments, laws, statutes, ordinances, and instructions etc. that God himself appointed for us to keep, obey, follow, and APPLY in our daily lives. Rebuking also serves for improving and maturing us in Christ Jesus as well as a people being prepared for ETERNAL LIFE. Making us the church ready for the return of our Lord Jesus. A people of God Fit and ready to occupy the place that our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ went to prepare for us to dwell for ALL ETERNITY with himself and God our Father in his eternal kingdom. Please!!! Read the gospel of John 14:2-3. God Bless you ALL in EVERYTHING in heavenly places in Jesus Christ our Lord and here on this earth. Amen.

Being Defiled Part 2

  Kingdom Greetings, to you all in the name of Jesus Christ Our Saviour. During this blog, I will be explaining how both prescription drugs and over the counter drugs, recreational drugs and alcohol are factors which can lead to us being defiled.  These three classes of drugs that mentioned above in addition to alcohol impacts our mental awareness and our ability to make decisions. Whenever we consume any of these three classes of drugs or alcohol it opens up our minds to influences and communications from Satan and his demonic forces. How? It is Satan as well as his demonic forces that influence our thoughts, actions, words, and our decisions. These demonic influences leads us to commit the following sins that defiles us: Fornication Adultery Lying, stealing and robbing Murder Sexual Assault and date rape Violence of all sorts Sexual Misconduct Disobedience to the law (driving under the influence).    If we were to conduct a statistical analysis each...

Laws of Marriage(Guidelines)

  I would like to thank you all for reading my blogs. I also want you to know that I truly appreciate you all. Welcome back. I am going to put forth a list for us all to follow as it pertains to the mind of Christ and as it is written in the holy scriptures( GOD'S recorded word ) concerning the principles and teachings of the laws of marriage. Marriage is between one man and one woman. What God has joined together. Let not anyone ( this includes a husband or a wife) put asunder. A person can ( only divorce )their spouse for sexual misconduct( adultery or fornication etc. ). If a person divorces their spouse for sexual misconduct neither a  husband or a wife or the spouse they have   divorced or separated from is permitted by GOD to marry another person. Also God do not permitt for them to engage in another intimate relationship. If a person for reasons  of abuse of any kind or the lives of themselves or that of their children was in danger were to divorce or s...

  Kingdom Greetings, Brothers and Sisters of our beloved Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I appreciate you and love you all much and dearly in Christ Jesus. From this point going forward, I will be writing and posting my blogs every other week. The reason for this change is because I have begun writing my third book titled: The Laws Of Marriage. This would be a great opportunity for everyone to read and catch up on blogs that I have already written and posted that are of interest to them.   These next series of my blogs will be centered on being defiled. I will define the word defile, show how a person becomes defiled?, and what is being defiled in the eyes of God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour is? The book of Mark Chapter 7:15-23 will be the main passage of scripture for this lesson series.              Mark 7:15    "There is NOTHING from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things wh...
