Ps.127.1a Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it:
1 Corinthians 12:24b but God hath tempered the body together,
1 Corinthians12:27
Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
(This was written to the church of God in Corinth, centuries before
there were an denominational divisions among the believers; so the different man made denominations are not the particular members of the Body of Christ; but the disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ are.
The Chosen,
the Elect, the disiples of the Lord Jesus; those following Him, in Spirit and in Truth, are built, as living stones, by the Lord Himself, into the unity of the one Body of Christ.
It must be perceived that those who follow the ever-present, in-dwelling, Living Word of God, in Spirit and in Truth, with living faith, will be those Chosen to salvation; and that the many Called who will not be chosen, are those following differing, and divisive doctrines about the written word.
Within are some of the revelations that I have received of the
Lord as I have waited upon Him for understanding.
If you have ears to hear, then hear this; you will be blessed;
you will know the Truth and be made free.
Please do not skim over familiar scriptures, but consider each word; there is no hurry; if
we get it right, we will live forever, as God's children. Hallelujah!!!
Mk.8.36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? 37 Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? (see Mt.16.26)
There is nothing, in this life, more precious
to us than our soul. We are our soul. Our souls inhabit our bodies in this mortal life; but when physical death comes, it is only our bodies that
perish; our souls continue on.
Our purpose in this temporal life, is the salvation of our soul, to live an eternal life as God's
children.
Don't waste it!
Before the deeper things
of God can be understood, it is essental to understand the milk of the Word.
Isaiah 28.9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from
the milk, and drawn from the breasts. (see study on 'First Principles').
May the Lord God bless us with ears to hear and eyes to see.
