>whom you killed
"No one takes it (my life) from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.”
Jesus had to correct Him a lot
Who denies Jesus come in the flesh but those waiting for His return or those who claim to be or serve His substitute while He's away?
>When he comes
So… you post the test… then fail the test?
Why do you deny Jesus COME in the flesh?
"Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that JESUS CHRIST has come in the flesh is from God, and every spirit that does not confess JESUS is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you heard was coming and now is in the world already. Little children, YOU ARE FROM GOD and have overcome them, FOR HE WHO IS IN YOU IS GREATER THAN HE IN THE WORLD. They are from the world; therefore they speak from the world, and the world listens to them. WE ARE FROM GOD. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of error."

"My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me."

“Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
“Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
“Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’
“They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’
“He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’

He comes like a thief in the night. But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.
They're thrown into the fire, but our God is a consuming fire. To those who hate Life, what is everlasting Life? To those who hate Truth, what is everlasting Truth? To those who hate forgiveness, what is everlasting forgiveness?
For those who are to go into captivity, into captivity they will go.
Funny people think that means political right and left.
If He's in you, your right is His right. If you stand before Him, your right is His left.
“Do not harm the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God.” Then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel."
"I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you."
Are you a servant of the King, or a Son of the Father?
"This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. That number is 666."
“If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on their forehead or on their hand, they, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath."
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."
Scripture literally tells us that evil is created, while the light is formed.
"I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things."
It also literally tells us manKIND was created (Genesis 1).
"So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them."
Scripture also tells us Adam was formed by the LORD God (Genesis 2) and the breath of life breathed into him, he became a living being.
"Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being."
If clay is formed, that clay already existed. It wasn't created.
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it."
“My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me."
The Way, and the Truth, and the LIFE is inside of us and is one with us who accept, and that LIFE was with God in the beginning, and is God.
Creator vs Created.
"They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised."
What's the first commandment? "Thou shall have no other gods before me".
Are you created? Or is He who is, and was, and is to come the very breath of life inside you?
If you claim to be created… you put another god before him who is in you, the Way, and the Truth, and the LIFE and violate the first commandment… all because you didn't understand the Truth.
In Noahs time, the firmament separates the "waters above" from the "waters below". As it was in the days of Noah so it is at the coming of the Son of Man.
Revelation 17:15 tells us the waters, where the prostitute sits, stand for people, multitudes, nations, and languages.
Above and below.
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."
“The secret of the kingdom of God has been given to you. But to those on the outside everything is said in parables so that,
“‘they may be ever seeing but never perceiving,
and ever hearing but never understanding;
otherwise they might turn and be forgiven!’”
Food for thought.
