10-31-2014-IN THE WORLD BUT NOT OF IT
JOHN 17: 11-17 =
(11) AND NOW I AM NO MORE "IN THE WORLD", BUT THESE(DISCIPLES-THOSE BORN AGAIN TODAY) ARE "IN THE WORLD" AND I COME TO YOU HOLY FATHER, KEEP THROUGH YOUR OWN NAME THOSE WHOM YOU HAVE GIVEN ME, THAT THEY MAY BE ONE, AS WE ARE.
(12) WHILE I WAS WITH THEM "IN THE WORLD", I KEPT THEM IN YOUR NAME: THOSE THAT YOU GAVE ME I HAVE KEPT AND NONE OF THEM IS LOST BUT THE SON OF PERDITION; THAT THE SCRIPTURE MIGHT BE FULFILLED.
(13) AND NOW I COME TO YOU; AND THESE THINGS I SPEAK "IN THE WORLD", THAT THEY MIGHT HAVE MY JOY FULFILLED IN THEM.
(14) I HAVE GIVEN THEM YOUR WORD; AND THE WORLD HAS HATED THEM, BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT "OF THIS WORLD", EVEN AS I AM NOT "OF THE WORLD".
(15) I PRAY NOT THAT YOU SHOULD TAKE THEM OUT "OF THE WORLD" BUT THAT YOU SHOULD KEEP THEM FROM THE EVIL.
(16) THEY, (WE BORN AGAIN AND ENLIGHTENED TO THE TRUTH) ARE NOT "OF THE WORLD", EVEN AS I AM NOT "OF THIS WORLD".
(17) SANCTIFY THEM THROUGH YOUR TRUTH: YOUR WORD IS TRUTH.
"REMARKS"
AS OUR KING JESUS, YAH'SHUA, SAID" I AM NOT "OF THIS WORLD", SO WE TOO, AS BROTHERS AND SISTERS AND CHILDREN OF YAH'WEH, ARE NOT "OF THIS WORLD".
SO LET US EXAMINE WHAT IT MEANS TO BE "IN THE WORLD BUT NOT OF IT".
THESE TWO WEEKS, PEOPLE "OF THE WORLD" ARE AND WILL BE VOTING FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE "OF THE WORLD", WHICH SHOULD ELIMINATE ANYONE WHO PROFESSES TO KNOW JESUS, YAH'SHUA, AND CALLS HIM AS THEIR MASTER AND LORD, BASED ON HIS WORDS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SCRIPTURES ABOVE, THAT I BROUGHT TO YOUR ATTENTION.
DO WE REALLY THINK WE ARE ABLE THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF A MANS HEART WHAT HIS FUTURE CHOICES WILL BE, WHICH WOULD DEFEND THE GOSPEL?
YAH'WEH, PUTS PEOPLE IN POWER WHO HE WILL KNOW WILL DO WHAT HIS WILL IS. HE ORDAINS THE POWERS TO BE AND WE ARE TO AVOID GETTING IN HIS WAY IN HIS SELECTIONS.
ROMANS 13: ALL OF IT
JESUS, YAH'SHUA, OBEYED THE LAW OF YAH'WEH, AND OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE, BUT DID HE BECOME IN ANYWAY A PART OF IT? NO HE DIDN'T AND NEITHER SHOULD WE.
11 TIMOTHY 2: 3-4 =
(3) YOU THEREFORE ENDURE HARDNESS AS A GOOD SOLDIER OF JESUS CHRIST.
(4) NO MAN THAT WARS, (SPIRITUAL BATTLES), ENTANGLES HIMSELF WITH THE AFFAIRS "OF THIS LIFE; THAT HE MAY PLEASE HIM, (JESUS, YAH'SHUA,) WHO HAS CHOSEN HIM TO BE A SOLDIER.
LET THE PEOPLE "IN THE WORLD AND OF THE WORLD" INTERFERE IN THEIR WORLDLY AFFAIRS, SUCH AS VOTING AND VAIN AND EMPTY LIFESTYLES BASED ON SELFISH MOTIVES AND NOT OUT OF LOVE AND WE AS CHILDREN OF YAH'WEH, OBEY AND FOLLOW THE WAYS OF THE KINGDOM OF JESUS, YAH'SHUA, AS HIS KINGDOM IS THE GOVERNEMENT WE SHOULD BE FOLLOWING AND OBEYING.
