Note for 2024/07/13 - ‭Philippians 3:1-21 KJV‬ - The Hand of Salvation

 


‭Philippians 3:1-21 KJV‬


[1] Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe. [2] Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. [3] For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. [4] Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: [5] circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; [6] concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. [7] But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. [8] Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, [9] and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: [10] that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; [11] if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. [12] Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. [13] Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, [14] I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. [15] Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you. [16] Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing. [17] Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample. [18] (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: [19] whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) [20] For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: [21] who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

Note for 2024/07/13


Shabbat Shalom, friends.


Do you know the true enemy by now? Do you know what works by the spirit of that which is against Christ our Lord, and not just Christ, but also all that is in Christ, even the body of Christ, which is the Church? Or, is everything just as you see it around you, just as this world presents it, even market itself to us?


Friends, the world that moves in the spirit that is anti-christ is all around you, it has become sophisticated, even glamorous, smart and has adopted advanced skills and developed technical marvels. Look at the world around you, see by the Spirit, do not be blind. Do not be pulled away from your faith in Christ by the dainties, pleasantries and entertainment of dark forces. This is often not even seen by the teachers in this world, the bright stars on the rise in this world, who advance the plight of the world that is fallen and in a state of abomination before GOD. Don't be fooled, do not buy into the lie. Instead, remember the Words of Christ.


Let me then give you a verse from today, from another version of the Bible, which will clarify something to you.


Philippians 3:2 NMV

[2] Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision (those who believe circumcision makes on righteous or saves).


https://bible.com/bible/2135/php.3.2.NMV


Who is it that murdered the prophets? And even by Paul's words today, who is it that persecuted those who followed The Way of Christ? Who caused the riots in the cities where Paul and the other apostles went to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ? Who stoned Stephen? Who turned their back on GOD and went after false gods like Baal and Molech? But, at the same time, I warn you. Be careful to judge through the eyes of a man, for judgment is reserved for GOD and His vessels of Judgment. Remember always that vengeance belongs to God, we were called to spread the Good News of Salvation through Christ. Our righteousness comes through Christ Jesus, by our faith in Him, just as it is written in John 3:16. The Vessel of Salvation by the election of GOD Almighty, The Creator and our Father in Heaven is our Lord Jesus Christ by the declaration of GOD Himself. We should never lose sight of that, nor should we forget that Christ came by the flesh too, from the line of King David, a descendant of Abraham, even as Abraham is a descendant of Adam, who GOD made.


Because the Jews rejected Christ Jesus, their Messiah, by the Grace of GOD, Salvation has been opened up to all who would believe in GOD'S only Begotten Son. Yes, even as wedding guests brought in from the streets, because the invited and intended guests refused that invitation. Their refusal is our gain unto everlasting life. But, if those who were intended should repent, don't think for one moment that they will not be forgiven of all. The first shall be last and the last, first. Did Jesus not say that too, my friends?


So, in light of what is playing out before our eyes in the world today, do not forget Who struck them with blindness. Do not participate in the rebellious behavior you see developing in the world, all over, in every major city center at this time. Do not judge as this world judges one another, but remain in the Spirit of Christ, preaching the Gospel of Salvation by Jesus Christ unto all that will hear you. Pray and believe that your Salvation is of Christ, and that the prize at the end of days for the believers is worth even giving up your flesh for it here, for Christ and His Message. For the Christian, there are no losses here, for all count to gain in heaven with the LORD. Love your enemies, just as Christ said. Feed the sheep of the Lord, in The Word, but also, be merciful unto the body which is the house of the soul that GOD gave.


GOD is the Judge of all, and from the Judge flows our Salvation in the Lord Jesus Christ who made atonement for us upon the cross. Go then, and sin no more, but walk after the righteousness of Jesus Christ, the Truth, The Way even The Light of Life eternal in the presence of GOD Almighty.


Shalom

The Bible Reading Plan:

I want to share the Bible Reading Plan I follow with you. Though I have had to slow down the process to work through it as you find it here on the Daily Notes, it is a year reading plan that takes you through the Bible in the sequence “as it happened” to the best estimation of man of the sequence in which things happened through the Biblical timeline.

In conclusion for the note today, I feel that today’s message is urgent for someone, maybe even for us all. Try to remember these words, “The best way to end your day in Christ, is to start your day in Christ.”


Shalom
