THE LIVING

* The living, the living, he shall praise Thee, as I do this day.
* For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made Alive. Now remember, You must be made Alive.
* The LORD is the true God, He is the Living God, and an Everlasting King.
* And God created whales, and every living creature that moveth.
* And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul.
* For the letter killeth, but the Spirit giveth Life. God hath given to us Eternal Life, and this Life is in His Son.
* The voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire.
* For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword.
* By the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
* I AM He that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I AM Alive for evermore. These things saith, the First and the Last, which was dead, and is ALIVE.
* In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.
* Thou openest Thine hand, and satisfieth the desire of every living thing.
* To be enlightened with the light of the living.
* I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
* I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
* Thou art my Refuge and my Portion in the land of the living.
* My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God.
* That I may walk before God in the light of the living.
* Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.
* My heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.
* For a living dog is better than a dead lion.
* For this my son was dead, and is Alive again, he was lost, and is found. And they began to be Merry.
* They have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
* They have forsaken the fountain of living waters, and hewn them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.
* Ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the Lord of hosts our God.
* For the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
* Tremble and fear before the God of Daniel: for He is the living God, and stedfast for ever.
* Ye are the sons of the living God.
* And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out of Jerusalem.
* Thou are the Christ, the Son of the living God.
* God is not the God of the dead, but of the living,
* Why seek ye the living among the dead?
* He would have given thee living water. From whence then hast Thou that living water?
* I am the living Bread which came down from heaven.
* As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father.
* And we believe and are sure that Thou art that Christ, the Son of the Living God.
* He that believeth on ME, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
* We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities unto the Living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein.
* Present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
* Quicken me O LORD, for Thy name's sake.
* And whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die.
* But had certain questions against him of their own superstition, and of one JESUS, which was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be Alive.
* Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but Alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
* Christ liveth in me.
* But yield yourselves unto God, as those that are Alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of Righteousness unto God.
* The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
* Written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the Living God.
* And you hath He quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins. Even so the Son quickeneth whom He will. It is the Spirit that quickeneth. That which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die.
* Ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
* How ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God.
* Behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.
* Because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.
* Be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy.
* How much more shall the blood of Christ, Who through the Eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
* By a new and living way, which He hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, His flesh.
* It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
* But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels.
* To whom also JESUS shewed Himself Alive after His passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.
* To whom coming, as unto a living Stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and Precious.
* For the Lamb which in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

THE OIL OF GLADNESS

* Now He which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God.
* The Recipe for Gladness: Love everything that God loves, and hate everything that God hates.
* Thou anointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.
* Rejoice the soul of Thy servant: for unto Thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
* O satisfy us early with Thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
* But be filled with the Spirit.
* The fruit of the Spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Longsuffering, Gentleness, Goodness, Faith, Meekness, Temperance. 
* These things write we unto you, that your Joy may be full. Ye Rejoice with Joy unspeakable and full of glory.
* As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing. Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice.
* I rejoice at Thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.
* I have rejoiced in the way of Thy testimonies, as much as in all riches.
* This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
* Then I was by Him, as one brought up with Him: and I was daily His delight, rejoicing always before Him.
* Love Righteousness and Hate Iniquity.
* And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon Him (JESUS).
* And when he hath found the lost sheep, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
* And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for His name.
* For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.
* And thou shalt speak unto all that are wise hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom.
* Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness.
* But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yea, let them exceedingly rejoice.
* Glory ye in His holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.
* Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to the Lord: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.
* Rejoicing in hope.
* Sing unto God, sing praises to His name: extol Him that rideth upon the heavens by His name JAH, and rejoice before Him.
* Also that day they offered great sacrifices, and rejoiced: for God had made them rejoice with great joy: the wives also and the children rejoiced: so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.
* Love Righteousness and Hate Iniquity.
* And my soul shall be joyful in the Lord: it shall rejoice in His salvation.
* And Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal apparel of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold, and with a garment of fine linen and purple: and the city of Shushan rejoiced and was glad.
* Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
* Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which Thou hast broken may rejoice.
*Let all those that seek Thee rejoice and be glad in Thee: let such as love Thy salvation say continually, The Lord be magnified.
* Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
* For our heart shall rejoice in Him, because we have trusted in His holy name.
* The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise Him.
* I will be glad and rejoice in Thy mercy.
* Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.
* Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in Sincerity.
* But I have trusted in Thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in Thy salvation.
* I will be glad and rejoice in Thee: I will sing praise to Thy name, O thou most High.
* But let all those that put their trust in Thee rejoice.
* For God loveth a cheerful giver.
* A merry heart doeth good like a medicine.
* Because Thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of Thy wings will I rejoice.
* Love Righteousness and Hate Iniquity.
* And Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness which the Lord had done to Israel.
* And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in the Lord, mine horn is exalted in the Lord: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in Thy salvation.
* The heathen rejoice around their god: Then the lords of the Philistines gathered them together for to offer a great sacrifice unto Dagon their god, and to rejoice: for they said, Our god hath delivered Samson our enemy into our hand.

THE UNKNOWN GOD

To give LIGHT to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of Peace. He was in the world, and the world was made by HIM, and the world knew HIM not. Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew Him not. 

For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, Him declare I unto you. Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. But I know you, that ye have not the Love of God in you. But now ye seek to kill Me, a man that hath told you the Truth, which I have heard of God. 

Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know Me, nor My Father: if ye had known Me, ye should have known My Father also. The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts. All things are delivered to Me of My Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and He to whom the Son will reveal Him. 

O righteous Father, the world hath not known Thee: but I have known Thee, and these have known that Thou hast sent Me. The world cannot hate you; but Me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil. If the world hate you, ye know that it hated Me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. But all these things will they do unto you for My name's sake, because they know not him that sent Me. 
I never knew you, depart from Me, ye that work iniquity.

Because they knew HIM not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning HIM. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. And they that know Thy name will put their trust in Thee: for Thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek Thee. Yet ye have not known Him; but I know Him: and if I should say, I know Him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know Him, and keep His saying. yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor Me. Then cried Jesus in the temple as He taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of Myself, but He that sent me is true, Whom ye know not. And ye have not His word abiding in you: for Whom He hath sent, Him ye believe not. He that heareth you heareth Me; and he that despiseth you despiseth Me; and he that despiseth ME despiseth HIM that sent ME.

Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth Him not, neither knoweth Him: but ye know Him; for He dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.  

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient. We are of God: He that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God. In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods. But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God. 

For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. And hereby we do know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. He that saith, I know Him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not the Lord. 

And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know Him that is true, and we are in Him that is true, even in His Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. 

MY DOCTRINE

Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but HIS that sent Me. Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, He doeth the works. He that cometh from above is above all. A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from above.

I can of Mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and My judgment is just; because I seek not Mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent Me. He that loveth Me not keepeth not My sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent Me. He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God. For He Whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God. He that rejecteth Me, and receiveth not My words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. I speak to the world those things which I have heard of Him. 

For I have given unto them the words which Thou gavest Me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from Thee, and they have believed that Thou didst send Me.  I have given them Thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 

Heaven and earth shall pass away: but My words shall not pass away. That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent Him. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth My word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. 

For I came down from heaven, not to do Mine own will, but the will of Him that sent Me. I am the Living Bread which came down from heaven. For the Bread of God is He which cometh down from heaven, and giveth Life unto the world. I seek not Mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent Me. No man can come to Me, except the Father which hath sent Me draw him. Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.

ALWAYS ABOUNDING

But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many. Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound. Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost. 

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ. How that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality. 

Therefore, as ye abound in every thing, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also. And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work. Wherein HE hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence. And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment. I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 

And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you. Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more. We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth. For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. A faithful man shall abound with blessings.

MY SINS, MY SAVIOR

My sins are innumerable, and they have beset me completely: my iniquities cleave unto me, I am not able to look up; my sins against God are more than the hairs of my head. My sins are against God, against Christ, against the Holy Spirit, against the words of God, against my parents, against my relationships, against my employer and employees. I have sinned against my own conscience and the clearest light and knowledge deliberately and intentionally. I have repeatedly sinned against God. The Gospel is intended only for sinful men and women, not the righteous. 

How can a sinner be Safe while his sins remain unforgiven and his Soul is unregenerate and undone? How can a sinner be at Peace with his Maker while he is a slave to his own evil nature, and an out-and-out enemy to his Creator?

Sins of thought and imagination, sins with my eyes, tongue, hands, feet, and entire body. Against Thee, Thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in Thy sight. Sinned against godly instruction and gracious examples. It is a horrible thing to be a lost sinner, and when the horror is fully perceived, I suddenly realize there a little piece of hell living within me: my Sins. My inward part is very wickedness. I have sinned on land, on the sea, and in the air. I am poor sin-sick soul in need of a divine Remedy. Sins of youth, Sins of manhood, Sins of old age. I am exceeding sinful and inclined to evil. 

Christ died for the ungodly; JESUS saves the sinful; The Lamb of God laid down His life for the vilest. I have sinned against God, and I cannot undo my sins by my own efforts or resolve. I have provoked God continually all my days, and can never make an atonement for my provocations. My unclean thought life and wicked imaginations trouble me. My terrible load of guilt worries me. My sins and guilt haunt me day and night, and drive me to despair. 

Sins of forgetting God, Sins against the Pardoning Love, Gentle Goodness and Continual Mercy of God. I played the fool greatly by sinning against God. I have sinned in thought, word, and deed all through my life without any regard to the LORD. Christ Jesus became Sin for me, He offered up Himself in my place, bearing my sins in His own body and suffering my sins' full penalty to His last breath on the Cross, and now God can be Just, and yet save a sinful man like me freely for Jesus' sake. 

I have sinned myself under the curse of the law and a dreadful penalty; I have sinned myself into despair, misery and death. I have sinned grievously and continually, aggravated sins against the forgiving God, the bleeding Savior, and the pleading Holy Spirit. I am sinner through and through, but Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; so I trust my Soul with Him at once. Christ Jesus freely forgives the guilty, and renews the sinful. I trust my sinful soul with the Lamb of God and His great Atoning Sacrifice for my sins. Only the Love of Christ can constrain me from sinning against God.

I have sinned against heaven and divine justice. A lost sinner is a base, despicable creature, only worthy of condemnation and wrath. Sins of commission and omission, Sins of ignorance, Secret sins, Overt and covert sins. I wandered in the darkness of Sin on the very brink of eternal damnation. The rejection of Christ brought the blackest guilt on my soul. O how many are my iniquities and sins; my transgressions are like black clouds over my head, threatening to strike me with thunderbolts of vengeance at any time. I drank from the world's murky ditch water and the black well of sin until I felt like animated death. 

My iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me. My secret sins are in the light of God's countenance. If you feel the bond of iniquity and the bitterness of sin in your Soul right now, cry out the LORD in your trouble and He will save you out of your distresses, "God be merciful to me a sinner, forgive my sins, grant me your Salvation, for JESUS' sake." One sincere sentence, just a few words of true heart-pleading with God, is worth more than ten thousand words of mere lip-service. 

I have sinned openly, sinned again and again with God watching every time. I have committed sins of the eyes, sins of the feet, sins with both hands, sins of the brain, sins of the heart, sins against God's Holy Law, sins against Jesus' Love and Blood; my sins are immense and innumerable. My sins are like the sand by the sea side for multitude, but the mercies and forgivenesses in JESUS' PRECIOUS BLOOD are Infinite. Never forget: Where my sins abounded, The Grace of My Lord Jesus Christ did much more abound. O what a Wonderful Savior is He!

TRANS?

We hear this phrase "Trans" being used very often today in this present evil world, and O what a wicked culture America is today. But let's see how The Word of God uses this phrase "Trans":

* TRANSgressor: This is what you are in the sight of God; and until you are born again, you are only a wicked transgressor in God's sight and are currently abiding under His wrath. The way of transgressors is hard. Wake up out of your Sin Coma, Wake up, Wake up! (Proverb 13:15)
* TRANSgression: This is what you have committed against your Holy Maker. Out of infinite Love, CHRIST JESUS, God manifest in the flesh, was wounded for your transgressions. (Isaiah 53:6)
* TRANSgressing: This is what your evil carnal nature within is intentionally doing every day, transgressing against God Himself and His divine Laws. You are Guilty as sin itself, because you are a Sinner, and sinning is the best you can do. So, as a result of your rebellion, a warrant for your Soul's arrest has been issued by the Judge of all the earth, for Divine Justice has been violated by you personally. (Acts 17:31) You've been served!
*TRANSfigured: JESUS was transfigured before His disciples: As He prayed, the fashion of His countenance was altered, and His face did shine as the sun, and His raiment was white as the light. And His raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so no fuller on earth can white them, white and glistening. (Matthew 17:1-2; Mark 9:2-3; Luke 9:28-29) 
* TRANSlate: Now remember, your Soul must be translated by the Spirit of God from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of God's dear Son. (Colossians 1:13) Until then, your poor Soul remains helplessly captive and under the control of the dark kingdom of Satan. Until you are born again, your Soul belongs to Satan. Also, when JESUS comes again, at the Appearing, He will translate His saints from earth to above, and so shall they ever be with HIM. 
* TRANSform: After your Soul is translated into the Kingdom of God, then your Mind must be Transformed anew by the Holy Spirit day by day, because for years and years this vile world has filled and conformed your mind with its cunningly devised spells and devilish thoughts. (Romans 12:2)
* TRANSparent: The streets of the continuing City, the City of the Living God, the heavenly New Jerusalem, are pure gold, as it were transparent glass. This is a peaceful city, because JESUS is The King, Governor, and Mayor of New Jerusalem. Of the Increase of His Government and Peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon His kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of host will perform this. (Revelation 21:21)

Dear Friend, Please do your Soul a Big Favor; Renounce your ways, your righteousness, and your thoughts. Let go of your deadly sins and Cleave to Jesus Christ Himself; Your account must be settled with God; That's all there is to it, and only Sinless Precious Blood can Ransom and Redeem your cursed Soul from the wrath to come that you deserve. Put zero confidence in yourself; Place all your Confidence in Christ Jesus Himself. Bypass all your doings and religiousness, and go to straight to THE LAMB OF GOD and His PRECIOUS BLOOD for mercy and salvation; Commit your immortal Soul into the merciful pierced hands of The Lord Jesus Christ for safekeeping eternally. Remember what JESUS said: If any man Thirst, let Him come unto ME, and drink. (John 7:37) The Holy Spirit creates the thirst, and JESUS satisfies the thirst, for He is the Free Water of Life.

I'm a TRANSgressor, and I have committed many transgressions against my Creator and His divine Law. But in Mercy, the Grace of God and The Holy Spirit made me aware and conscious of my sinful state and imminent danger. By the Help of the Holy Spirit, I came to my senses, I woke up out of my sin coma, and out of the depths of my guilt and shame, the Holy Spirit gave me Faith, I cried unto the LORD JESUS CHRIST, and He translated me out of my sins, and into His everlasting Kingdom. And now, the Holy Spirit is transforming my mind day by day. The path of JESUS is as the shining light, than shineth more and more unto the perfect day when I will go to be with Him for evermore. I am now waiting for THE LORD JESUS CHRIST to return, or for my flesh to give up the ghost one day, and I will depart to be with THE LAMB OF GOD which is only gain and far better. Then, I will be enter New Jerusalem and walk along the golden transparent streets to praise and follow the LAMB whithersoever He goeth.
