" Words of CHRIST"


"If any man claims to love the LORD, but hates his brother,

he is a liar, and the truth in not in him". How true, How

true! We have all been wronged by one person or another

but we must remember what GOD, says about this. " If ye

forgive not your brother, his trespasses, then neither

will your trespasses be forgiven you". The words in this

quote may not be verbatim what was said, but the MEANING

of what is said, is exactly the same. For the word says

You can change my words, BUT, change not a tittle or jot

of their meanings. FORGIVENESS is that important, for

without it, who can stand before the throne of our LORD,

and not be guilty? Sometimes people go through things

that seem unforgivable, but this is only because the

DEVIL is working constantly, to remove the WORD, that

has been sown into your heart. If you keep the WORDS

and take them to heart, then you become liken to the

seed which the sower sown, that fell into fertile ground

which reaps 100% harvest. This will automatically mean

that you abound in grace, and can find forgiveness in

your heart. For you have the "spirit of GOD" living in

you. You have put on the whole armour of GOD, and can

stand against the firey darts of the devil. I speak from

experience, for anyone who has read " Forgive To Be

Forgiven", (my testimony) will know that it was ONLY

through the grace of GOD, that I could do so. Are you

living in the joy of the LORD? Or do you sometimes feel

like you are being persecuted, unfairly? Then first, I

ask you to remember any, and all things that were done

to you in the past, that were hurtful. GIVE them to the

LORD, and HE, will give you the grace to forgive, and

then you will be free, for the devil HAS, to FLEE, any

person who has asked forgiveness, of sin. Also HE can't

stand in front of someone, who puts the LORD first, in

all things, and who also loves his brother as he loves

himself. These two things, according to the New Testament

are repeated more than once, because of their importance.

The most likely way, that the devil can find a way in,

is through unforgiveness, for he will use the word to

distort the truth, by taking it out of context, for

example he would tell you the lie "remember what the

bible says about "an eye for an eye"? When we are hurt

and upset, he knows that we are the most vurnerable, to

these kind of untruths. He will use them, in any and every

way, to distort the word of GOD, He even tried it on

JESUS, when he told him "it is written", of course

JESUS knew that he was omitting some of the scripture

to twist it into a lie, and corrected him, and told

him to "get behind me satan". It is just short of

amazing how even JESUS, had to be faced with temptation.

We were "born under sin" just from being the offspring

of Adam, so it would seem to me that satan will always

try to take away, the word of GOD, that has been sown

into our hearts. So therefore it is important to know

how to overcome him, and that is by putting on the whole

armour of GOD. If you would like to know more about the

whole armour of GOD, there is a post, in this site which

is named " The Armour Of GOD", in which a complete

discription of each element of it, is all about.

Your brother in CHRIST. Bless you ALL. Stephen Monday
