Today's Edification (26 October 2024)


Greetings again sisters! 


The Lord allowed me to come back! There's so many things that need to work together for us to do all we do isn't there! This whole creation is so intricate and interconnected that it is clear it needed Someone exceedingly great to create it! Indeed Someone greater than it all and outside of it. 

I hope you're all walking in the truth and light still! There's so much hope ahead in Christ if we are following after Him! 


How do I know a sister has faith on Christ? 

Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
James 2:18

Something 'abstract' like faith surely manifests in our actions! 


How do I know that a sister loves God? 

He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
John 14:21

A simple answer...she will be diligent to obey and please the One she loves! Perhaps somewhat like a godly wife who loves her husband will not be doing things that displease him! She will obey him and do things the way he likes and wants the best she can. We must love God (and others) in deed and in truth and not just with our lips or say we love Him in our hearts! 

But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth. 
1 John 3:17-18
If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
1 John 4:20

 

Jesus said... 

"The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel." 
(Mark 1:15) 

"He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him."
(John 3:36) 

"For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven."
Matthew 5:20

"Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven."
Matthew 18:3

"I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." 
(John 14:6) 

"Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again."
(John 3:3,6-7)  

"But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved."
(Matthew 24:13) 


Of course He said many more things but I'm very thankful His words are written so we may find eternal life through Him! 

May we never be so high-minded to think we can figure out or understand everything about God and His ways!

O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! 

For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor? 

Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again? 

For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.

Romans 11:33-36


I think sometimes we humans can think we know more than we do or something and so try to explain the scriptures more than we should even perhaps. Let us use all of His Word to help us understand all we can and what the Lord opens our eyes to! May we not go to man for help...unless of course saints who use the scriptures to understand scripture and focus on His Word we surely can help one another...but His Word stands alone! May it be our 'go to' source for help and to know the way! And we know how Jesus used scripture on the adversary to quote another scripture so must we also hold fast to all His written word which I am so grateful for! Indeed it is for us for many good uses... 

And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 

That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

2 Timothy 3:15-17 

We do not want to handle the word of God deceitfully. It is all important and there is much spoken of mercy, grace, belief, obedience, holiness, perfection, election, His plan and will, sin, death, the resurrection, the kingdom of heaven, life, His chosen ones, truth, judgement, wrath, kindness, love and so many things of course so we cannot just choose what we like or prefer but take it all with humble hearts. It says what is says and with His help we search out the truth and submit to it! May we keep pressing on after the Lord and His truth found in His Word! 


I hope all your godly women's works are going well sisters. I'm thankful to be keeping occupied here in them. So I shall go now and bid you farewell until tomorrow! Love to you all! 


Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you. 

Greet one another with an holy kiss. 

All the saints salute you. 

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.

2 Corinthians 13:11-14
