Ephesians 1:23
NKJV

And he put all things under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things to the church,

which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

Romans 12:4,5
NKJV

For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function,

so we being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.

1 Corinthians 12:27
NKJV

Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.

*** THE CHURCH IS THE BODY OF
CHRIST, TO CARRY OUT GOD’S PLAN ON EARTH. ***

*** THE HUMAN BODY NEEDS ALL PARTS OF IT TO BE HEALTHY AND FUNCTION PROPERLY. ***

*** “IN CHRIST” WE ALL NEED TO KNOW, AND FULFILL, OUR PART IN THE CHURCH WHICH IS CHRIST’S BODY. ***

*** GET RID OF ALL FEELINGS OF INFERIORITY ….THAT YOU DON’T MATTER MUCH IN THIS GREAT BIG WORLD. ***

*** JESUS KNOWS YOUR NAME AND WHAT HE CHOSE YOU TO DO. ***

*** CHURCH LEADERS AND CHURCH PEOPLE IN TODAYS ORGANIZED CHRISTIANITY SEEM TO THINK THEIR BUILDING IS THE CHURCH. ***

*** THEY “GO” TO CHURCH ON SUNDAYS AND SIT AND LISTEN TO THE PREACHER AND LEAVE FOR HOME NOT KNOWING WERE THEY FIT IN THE BODY. ***

*** THEY TELL HOW IMPORTANT YOU ARE AT OFFERING TIME….HOW IMPORTANT IT IS FOR YOU TO GIVE YOUR MONEY . ***

*** EVERYONE GETS FULL PARTICIPATION IN GIVING MONEY AND TOLD HOW IMPORTANT THEY ARE TO THE MINISTRY OF THE CHURCH. ***

*** HOW MANY FIND THEIR PURPOSE IN THE BODY OF CHRIST? HOW MANY REMAIN SPECTATORS AND NEVER FIND A WAY TO RELEASE WHAT THEY WERE MADE TO DO IN LIFE? ***

*** TAKE THIS AS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO LEARN FROM JESUS….WHAT IS MY GIFT TO RELEASE IN YOUR CHURCH? YOUR BODY? ***

*** NO ONE CAN SHOW YOU MORE CLEARLY, AND ACCURATELY THAN THE ONE WHO MADE YOU, AND SAVED YOU. AFTER ALL HE IS THE HEAD OF HIS CHURCH. IT IS HIS BODY. ***

*** NO ONE CAN DO WHAT GOD HAS CALLED YOU TO DO. OTHERS MAY NOT SEE IT OR UNDERSTAND. AS LONG AS YOU AND GOD SEE IT, THAT IS ALL THAT REALLY MATTERS. ***

*** FULFILLMENT AND FRUITFULNESS COME WHEN YOU HEAR FROM JESUS AND OBEY HIS CALL. ***

Romans 9: 24-26
Amplifed….

Including us, whom he also called, not only from among the Jews, but also from among the Gentiles?

Just as he says in the (the writings of the prophet) Hosea:

“I will call those who were not my people, ‘my
People,’

And (I will call) her who was not beloved,
‘Beloved’.

“And it shall be that in the place where it was
To them ‘you are not my people,’

There they shall be called sons of the living
God.”

*** THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN GOD’S SON, JESUS CHRIST AS SAVIOR ARE GOD’S PEOPLE. ***

*** THEY ARE CHOSEN BY GOD FROM EVERY NATIONALLY AND RACE OF PEOPLE OVER THE FACE OF THE WHOLE EARTH. ***

*** THEY ARE ALL BROTHERS TO EACH OTHER WITH ONE FATHER….WHO IS
GOD. ***

*** THEY ALL COME TO GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST AND HAVE THE HOLY
SPIRIT INDWELLING THEM. ***

*** THESE ARE THE ONES THAT GOD CALLS
“BELOVED.” ***

*** THEY ARE THE ONES FATHER CALLS
“MY PEOPLE.”

Isaiah 55:6-9
Amplifed….

Seek the Lord while he may be found;

Call on him (for salvation) while he is near.

Let the wicked leave (behind) his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts;

And let him return to the Lord, and he will have compassion (mercy) on him,

And to our God, for he will abundantly parden.

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways”, declares the Lord.

*** THIS WORD DECLARES THAT THERE IS A TIME IN YOUR LIFE WHEN THE LORD MAY BE FOUND. ***

*** LIKEWISE THERE IS A TIME WHEN HE IS NEAR TO YOU. ***

*** OUR RESPONSE TO THIS IS TO CALL ON HIM FOR SALVATION. ***

*** WE ARE TO LEAVE BEHIND OUR WICKEDNESS AND UNRIGHTEOUS THOUGHTS. ***

*** WE SHOULD RETURN TO THE LORD. ***

*******************************************

*** HE WILL HAVE COMPASSION ON
YOU. ***

*** HE WILL ABUNDANTLY PARDON. ***

*** HE WILL DO GOOD IN YOUR LIFE AND TURN THINGS AROUND IN YOUR
FAVOR. ***

*** THE TIME TO ACT IS WHEN GOD CAN BE FOUND….WHEN HE IS NEAR TO SAVE YOU AND BRING HIS FAVOR OVER YOU. ***

1 Corinthians 5:11
Amplifed….

But actually, I have written you not to associate with any so-called (Christian) brother if he is sexually immoral or greedy,
Or is an idolater (devoted to anything that takes the place of God),

or a reviler (who insults or slanders or otherwise verbally abuses others), or is a drunkard or a swindler—-you must not so much as eat with such a person.

*** WHEN ANYONE CALLES THEMSELVES A CHRISTIAN OR RECOGNIZED AS BEING ONE OF CHRIST’S FOLLOWERS THEY ARE TO LIVE A LIFE WORTHY OF JESUS. ***

*** IF THEY SAY THEY ARE YOUR BROTHER IN CHRIST BUT LIVE A LIFE OF VERBAL ABUSE, SLANDER, REVILER OF OTHERS YOU ARE TO STAY AWAY FROM THEM. ***

*** YOU ARE TO HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM AT ALL. YOU CERTAINLY SHOULD NOT VOTE FOR THEM FOR PUBLIC OFFICE OF ANY KIND ! ***

*** IT IS BECAUSE THEY ARE BRINGING SHAME AND A CONFUSING EXAMPLE OF WHAT OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS ABOUT THAT YOU ARE TO REJECT THEM. ***

*** FOLLOWERS OF JESUS ARE TO BE LIVING A LIFE THAT BRINGS GOD GLORY TO GOD….NOT SHAME !

1 Corinthians 2:12-16
Amplifed….

Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Holy Spirit who is from God, so that we may know and understand the
(wonderful) things freely given to us by God.

We also speak these things, not in words of taught or supplied by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, combining and interpreting spiritual thoughts with spiritual words (for those who are guided by the Holy Spirit),

But the natural (unbelieving) man does not except the things (the teachings and revelations) of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness (absurd and illogical) to him;
and he is incapable of understanding them,
because they are spiritually discerned and appreciated, (and he is unqualified to judge spiritual matters),

But the spiritual man (the spiritually mature Christian) judges all things (questions, examines and applies what the Holy Spirit reveals), yet is himself judged by no one
(the unbeliever cannot judge and understand the believer’s spiritual nature).

For who has known the mind and purposes of the Lord, so as to instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ (to be guided by his thoughts and purposes).

*** ALL THINGS ABOUT GOD AND HIS KINGDOM ARE MADE KNOWN TO US BY HOLY SPIRIT. ***

*** NOTHING MAKES SENSE WHEN YOU HAVE THE SPIRIT OF THE WORLD GUIDING YOU. ***

*** UNDERSTANDING AND WISDOM COME TO YOU WHEN YOU RECIEVE THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD. ***

*** THE HOLY SPIRIT HELPS YOU TO EXAMINE AND APPLY SPIRITUAL TRUTH ABOUT GOD IN YOUR LIFE. ***

*** WE HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST TO BE GUIDED BY HIS THOUGHTS AND PURPOSES. ***

*** BECAUSE SIN ABOUNDS THE LOVE OF MANY GROWS COLD. THERE IS A GREAT FALLING AWAY GOING ON IN AMERICA AND THE WORLD. ***

*** GREAT INFLUENCES TO GO ASTRAY AND ENTER INTO SIN ARE ON THE
RISE. ***

*** BECAUSE PEOPLE THAT SHOULD KNOW BETTER HAVE LOST THEIR MINDS DOES NOT MEAN YOU SHOULD GO ASTRAY FROM CHRIST ALSO ! NO IT DOES NOT ! ***

*******************************************

*** JESUS CHRIST, THE SAME YESTERDAY AND TODAY AND FOREVER. ***

*** PEOPLE CHANGE, BUT JESUS DOES
NOT. CORRUPTING INFLUENCES DEGRADE HUMAN BEINGS. ***

*** JESUS REMAINS STEADFAST AND ABLE TO SAVE, LEAD, IN EVER SITUATION. ***

*** TAKE YOUR EYES OFF THOSE LEADING OTHERS INTO DESTRUCTION….AND LOOK UPON JESUS, THE AUTHOR AND FINISHER OF YOUR FAITH ! ***

Colossians 1:18,19
Amplifed….

He also is the life-source and leader of the body, the church; and he is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead,

So that he himself will occupy the first place (he will stand supreme and be preeminent) in everything.

For it pleased the Father for all the fullness
(of deity —-the sum total of his essence, all
His. perfection, powers, and attributes) to dwell (permanently) in him (the Son),

*** JESUS SAID IT THIS WAY….”WHY DO YOU CALL ME LORD, LORD AND DO NOT DO WHAT I SAY”? ***

*** EVERY CONTINUING PROBLEM IN AMERICA TODAY IS LINKED TO DISOBEDIENCE TO THE TEACHING OF CHRIST. ***

*** HE STANDS AT THE DOOR OF HIS CHURCH RIGHT NOW AND KNOCKS ON THE DOOR TO BE LET IN. *** (REVELATIONS)

*** IF ANY MAN OPENS THE DOOR JESUS WILL COME INTO HIM AND LOVE HIM AND FELLOWSHIP WITH HIM. ***

*** WHY DON’T WE ALL JUST OPEN THE DOOR FOR JESUS? ***

*** LET HIM TRULY BE LORD AND LEADER OF YOUR LIFE. ***

*** DO YOU HEAR HIM KNOCKING ON THE DOOR? ***

*** EVERYTHING CHANGES FOR THE BETTER WHEN YOU GET THIS RIGHT IN YOUR LIFE ! ***

THE KINGDOM OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS THE ANSWER AND SOLUTION FOR ALL HUMANITY. HE JUST REQUIRES THAT WE LOVE FATHER GOD WITH ALL OUR HEART, MIND, SOUL, AND STRENGTH.

HE REQUIRES THAT WE LOVE ONE ANOTHER AND FORGIVE ONE ANOTHER. WE MUST BE VITALY CONNECTED TO HIM, THE SOURCE OF ALL GOD’S LIFE

THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL BE GIVEN TO ALL WHO LOVE GOD AND HAVE JESUS CHRIST AS THEIR LORD AND TEACHER. THE HOLY SPIRIT LEADS US TO ALL TRUTH CONCERNING WHAT BELONGS TO US IN THE KINGDOM.

WE ARE TO KEEP THE UNITY OF THE SPIRIT IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD “IN CHRIST. WE ARE ALL SONS TO OUR FATHER GOD AND BROTHERS TO EACH OTHER. WHEN THESE THINGS ARE IN ORDER THEN THE POWER OF HOLY SPIRIT WILL DO MIRACLES, AND HEALINGS ABUNDANTLY.

THANK YOU LORD FOR ALL THOSE WHO HAVE EYES TO SEE AND EARS TO HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT IS SAYING TO THE CHURCH.

Isaiah 54:17
Amplifed….

“No weapon that is formed against you will succeed;

And every tongue that rises against you in judgement you will condemn.

This peace, righteousness, security, and triumph over opposition is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,

And this is their vindication from me,” says the Lord.

*** THERE ARE ATTACKS THAT COME AGAINST US TO STOP, US AND DISCOURAGE OR BELITTLE WHO WE
ARE. ***

*** THESE ATTACKS DO NOT COME FROM GOD. THEY COME FROM THE DEVIL OR PEOPLE WHO HAVE EVIL INTENTS AGAINST YOU. ***

*** YOUR LIFE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS “IN CHRIST” WILL VINDICATE YOU AGAINST ANY AND ALL SLANDER OR MALICE OF ANY KIND. ***

*** NOTHING WILL SUCCEED AGAINST YOU ….IT WILL FAIL COMPLETELY. ***

*** YOU WILL TRIUMPH OVER EVERY OPPOSITION AGAINST YOUR LIFE AS YOU WALK WITH JESUS. ***

*** YOUR VINDICATION COMES FROM THE LORD ! ! ! ***

*** YOU ARE FOUND BLAMELESS BEFORE YOUR GOD AND HE GIVES YOU PEACE, RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND SECURITY. ***

*** “HE PREPARES A TABLE BEFORE YOU IN THE PRESENCE OF YOUR ENEMIES….HE ANOINTS YOUR HEAD WITH FRESH OIL. ***

*** YOUR OUTCOME OF GOOD IN YOUR LIFE WILL BE YOUR REWARD AND IT WILL CONDEMN YOUR ENEMIES AND DETRACTORS. ***

John 15:7
Amplifed….

“If you remain in me and my words remain in you (that is, if we are vitally united and my message lives in your heart), ask whatever you wish and it will be done for you.

*** JESUS IS THE VINE AND WE ARE THE BRANCHES. ***

*** ALL THE LIFE OF FATHER GOD FLOWS INTO OUR LIVES AS WE LIVE OUR LIVES
“IN CHRIST”. ***

*** JESUS CHRIST’S WORDS (HIS MESSAGE LIVES IN OUR HEARTS).

*** IF YOU ARE VITALLY UNITED WITH JESUS CHRIST ASK WHATEVER YOU WISH AND IT WILL BE DONE FOR YOU. ***

*** IF YOU BELONG TO CHRIST YOU ARE INVITED TO ASK WHATEVER YOU
WISH. ***

*** IT WILL BE DONE FOR YOU ! ! !
