If knowing there is a Key of any sort to the knowledge of God, to what expected end would anyone somehow hope to profit in having "Locked" the gate or somehow withheld keys to the gate of the Kingdom of God?
Is there more to the STORY being told of Christ as to why only Peter is always portrayed as standing alone at the Pearly Gates of Heaven? As if the only Gate Keeper of the Kingdom of Heaven?
Who was it that threatened to remove some from the benefit of having access to the Temple court of their time if they didn't agree with a certain "Doctrine" that had been taught for hundreds of years?
Does the soul of a person somehow NEED a (tangible) set of Keys to Heaven if the One holding "THE KEYS" can somehow be Won over having simply been TAUGHT differently?
As if knowing mankind better than we know God as do most, If the "Person" who supposedly does have these Keys can somehow be bought (ransomed), swayed or their MIND somehow brought "Under" the control of some OUTSIDE source, will those same proverbial keys given to Peter still unlock the gates to heaven?
Even if Only intended to be the brunt of a Joke, it's a harmful suggestion because Jesus said NO ONE comes to the Father except by way of WHOM? Surely Christ Gave to Peter the Keys, because the word of God said He did, yet Jesus also Gave Peter "What"?
Knowledge? So if Christ and Peter are physically no longer PRESENT how does anyone else also find the way into the Kingdom?
Is there a reason why the Bones of the man Peter are 'Said" to be buried under St Petersburg Square? Is there a reason images of "Keys" are also seen the walls of this same city?
Luke 8:9-10
His disciples asked him what this parable meant. He said, "The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that,
"'though seeing, they may not see; though hearing, they may not understand.'
NIV
No one comes to the Father except through me.
NIV
Today who is NOT truthfully accepting what their own words and beliefs often attempt to 'Deny" others?
And exactly where does one's confidence IN CHRIST come from? A type of Christ who is somewhere OUT THERE? Or from His spirit that DOES have a habitation on the inside of you 3 part "Being"? Namely Body, Soul and what? Just any old spirit of our choosing?
The type of Spirit who only says what the combined efforts and energies of the Body and Soul have somehow contrived/conjured from 'Somewhere" beyond what our physical eyes can see?
Exactly who's Denying whom their God given inheritance by way of insisting that NO ONE can Hear directly from God today? Are many only believing Rumors about what the Son of God said? Is what the Son of God said to anyone also "Here say"?
Here say to interpret things "Said" that are ONLY applicable down HERE and NOT also in Heaven?
It's easy to 'Say' someone is in "Denial", yet if very few KNOW exactly what anyone is denying, who is WILLING to share in the "Blame" without explaining exactly WHO it is that's being 'Denied"?
And to have denied the power of the Truth of Christ in You or I also suggest what? How powerless Imperfection TRULY is? Granted!
And if Self perpetuation does rely on Ignorance and Unbelief in order to somehow merely survive ALL accusations to the contrary, exactly where does Truth weigh in and on whose time table and for what purposes and Intent?
Heb 4:13-16
Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.
For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are — yet was without sin.
Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
NIV
What if the type of 'Thoughts" that have to do with MANY different souls were intended to be considered as if talking about ONE "Soul"? Instead of MANY different types of souls on the other side of everything Christ HAS accomplished?
Maybe think on spirituality this "Way", as if the consideration of ones physical body and its cravings (desires) could somehow be "Taken" OUT of the eternal equation?
At what point does the 'Renewal" of an UNCERTAIN type of mind also MANIFEST that can and does prove capable of restraining the power of the voice of our physical bodies?
Exactly how much of ALL that you assume you ALREADY know to be true about the Kingdom of God is also TRUE and how much of what you do NOT Know is also TRUE about the Kingdom of God? And who decides when and if ENOUGH is truly ENOUGH?
And who is satisfied with ALL that they assume they Know to be TRUE about ALL that God says He IS Here, Now and Forever more? And ALL three of those that will also AGREE and move forward in whatever type of thoughts and set of circumstances that do come our WAY?
Can God be summed UP in one sentence? One word? One thought? I believe God can, yet that based on ONE condition? That condition being what" God said what is TRUE? And how simple is "I AM?
If God could be summed up by way of the words of mankind, why Not only repeat over and over John 3:16 and be DONE with the whole matter as do MANY? Going about as if business as usual while waiting for God to somehow beyond your control somehow "Change Your Mind?
And that change of mind that's somehow WITHOUT the internal influence of HIS spirit that many CLAIM is within them that also REMAINS silent as if everything we do and say is RIGHTEOUS in Gods SIGHT?
Many are ok with the initial thoughts that lend to what Jesus says is True in that "My sheep listen (Hear) to my voice, right? Yet how many will read the next few words as if also True?
And how do these same principles also Map out in this world? Does the Father of Heaven Only Love the other spouse who's supposedly the ONLY one hearing from God? Does God only hear the prayers of the Child whom God has also provided Parents he's instructed children to listen to?
Does God give wives Mules to plow fields or Husbands who were intended to cleans their wives by the washing of their OUTER bodies while leaving the Mind unattended to?
Does the will of God turn a blind eye to the intent and purposes of the TWO who were told too become ONE flesh? And exactly how does any of the above take up rightful residency if the individual OFFICE (Husband, Wife Child) each were assigned to are so easily OVERLOOKED and cast aside?
And if ANY person can NOT be trusted in the seemingly SMALLER matters of this world, who then can be entrusted with the secrets to the Kingdom of Heaven? The type of strength and power that can bring to ruin even the LEAST of ALL sinners known to mankind?
John 10:27-30
My sheep listen to my voice ; I know them, and they follow me.
I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. I and the Father are one."
NIV
Exactly HOW MUCH would the removal of the concern for our bodies also take away from the thoughts that HAVE to do with Being seen as if Unique" in the sight of God under present conditions?
Exactly how high are the mental cost for the type of Maintenance our bodies seem to want to demand in terms of compromise our SOUL then in turn must somehow Justify?
Is there a more accurate reason why many suggest they possess the "Knowledge of God" versus being POSSESSED by that "Knowledge?
I was playing the "Game" of Monopoly the other day with some "Loved Ones" as I began to "See" to some degree portions of the unresolved mystery that do reside in this word.
Those playing the game included a 9 year old who most would consider to be participating at a "Disadvantage" as compared to the other 3 adults seated around the table.
To make a long story short we played two games and the kid handily won both, yet the second game quite easily and with very little (if any) coaching. Basically the 9 year old "Caught On" quickly!
There is one caveat though, the adults were definitely NOT as ruthless towards the person of the Child the first game as much as they WERE towards the other supposed ADULTS in the handling of their individual "Opportunities" to Otherwise Monopolize the "Playing Field" (Board).
The question is, NOW that the Child does KNOW rules and how to play, will the NEXT game PRODUCE the same NET kindred results? Meaning, will the Child still receive the SAME type of Mercy shown during the learning curve?
In the hope the Child would WIN and discover for themselves not only HOW they overcame the challenges but HOW they were somehow managed in order to overcome?
I'm sure most "Will" insist on their OWN conclusions "Drawn" that might somehow EXPLAIN the outcome, but why would You suppose "Adults" treat each other differently as compared? Are we only talking about the GAME of Monopoly? Or are we also mindful of those who got a late start in this life in terms of becoming possessed by the "Knowledge of Christ"?
My "Point" is hopefully NOT only pointing at the game of monopoly, but the much broader thoughts that have ONLY to do with RESULTS"!
I'm hoping to somehow blend the thoughts conjured from this Blog together with the one I hope will follow suit.
Luke 11:52
"Woe to you experts in the law, because you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering ." NIV
Without further explanation how many would then ask, Hold Out from WHAT?
I find it extremely curious as to exactly who comes up with the many different (words) "Label's" people assign not only to themselves but to others in this world.
If Any person should fear ANY consideration above and beyond all others what would YOU suggest the single most important One should be?
Mark 3:29
But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven ; he is guilty of an eternal sin." NIV
Is there a difference between "Acting Out' of "Ignorance" and acting out based on "Unbelief"?
Is it possible to be possessed by the Holy Spirit without also realizing what the Manifestation of that same Holy Spirit was intended to promote?
And who today is TRYING to sift/filter what any type of spiritual manifestation should also also LOOK LIKE?
1 Cor 12:7
Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good
NIV
Do I personally understand EVERYTHING God has said OR could want to say to me "Individually"?
Wouldn't that understanding also"Depend" on WHO'S interpreted what GOD has said as well WHY?
Basically whose told me WHAT and WHO was I or ANYONE INTENDED to believe?
Who has truly understood the intent and purpose of "Conviction" or the common "Need" for the revelation of "Righteousness"?
Is there a true reason why God would have need of BEING seen as though He is welcoming every type of Sinful behavior?
Having welcomed EVERY type of sin into ONE household without TRUTHFULLY considering what ONE sanctification process might also look like for ALL those to be CONSIDERED and remain WELCOMED under ONE roof?
When was the Last time You saw FIRE discriminating without having to try to determine WHO "Started" the Fire?
Have you ever debated with a "Teenager"?
Have you ever debated with a Teenager that is also YOUR child?
Is there an expected END as if the net result(s) of each of those TYPE of debates? The difference BEING what?
Exactly what are and how far do the limits of a Birth Right extend and stretch in order to somehow Accommodate EVERYONE?
Have you ever debated with your teenage child who looks to try and relate everything they want to DO with what the members of another Household are doing?
Does the rules of every other household on Your block also dictate what takes place under YOUR roof? If NOT, why "Not'?
And exactly WHAT is it that maintains the essential HEART BEAT of any type of LAW that's been implemented and clearly understood by EVERYONE who wants to also receive the BENEFIT from those same LAWS?
What tool in the Hand of God will He use to deal with the Thorns of THIS WORLD? How will anyone KNOW without studying God?
What is Truly being suggested when a man declares the HAND of God was upon his person when each says and does whatever? Once again, How will anyone KNOW without studying God?
Exactly what has God made 'Apparent" to You? Exactly why does what God has made Apparent to You also find agreement within those around You?
Once again exactly who is Israel in the Sight of God? And who does NOT know what God is thinking? And who is it that searches the Spirit of God and dispenses with those same findings?
And if EVERYONE up for consideration does NOT agree with those findings what does ANYONE then do as a result?
2 Sam 23:2-7
"The Spirit of the LORD spoke through me;
his word was on my tongue.
The God of Israel spoke, the Rock of Israel said to me:
'When one rules over men in righteousness, when he rules in the fear of God, he is like the light of morning at sunrise on a cloudless morning,
like the brightness after rain that brings the grass from the earth.'
"Is not my house right with God?
Has he not made with me an everlasting covenant, arranged and secured in every part?
Will he not bring to fruition my salvation and grant me my every desire?
But evil men are all to be cast aside like thorns,
which are not gathered with the hand.
Whoever touches thorns uses a tool of iron or the shaft of a spear;
they are burned up where they lie."
NIV
Which teenager would You expect to HEAR with their heart what you've said to both that has also come from Your heart as their otherwise apparent "Parental Oversight?
Now try and apply that same principle to an "Adopted Child"? As well an Adopted Child of God? Exactly who's adopting WHO?
At what point does a set of "Parents" cease being seen as simply "RE-sources" and hopefully later in life to be recognized as faithfully Channeled resources that had been diverted through Parents as temporary Care GIVERS?
At what stage in life could the words of God somehow satisfy an otherwise Mistaken Identity? Are we talking Legal rights to "Property" here or Godly Principles?
Do all boys not eventually NOT become young men who then peradventure to become also wise "Men"? And who will argue for the sake of all that "Death" truly IS in the sight of God?
Do men Love children or do they LOVE the thought of somehow being a FATHER even MORE? And what is becoming of a RIGHTEOUS Father?
Every Father claims their son right? And every Father never blames the other spouse or the surrounding world for the behavior of an OTHERWISE bad son?
Exactly how hard is it to somehow Decrease so that Christ Might Increase?
Are we only talking about those who are struggling to Believe the THOUGHTS that have to DO with the POSSIBILITY that can and will otherwise speak to the type of thoughts that more than suggest .......CHRIST IN YOU?
Realizing this is an excerpt extracted from among other words, but what type of person can be seen in the essence of these words?
Matt 23:6-7
....they love to be greeted in the marketplaces and to have men call them 'Rabbi.' NIV
Matt 23:8-12
"But you are not to be called 'Rabbi,' for you have only one Master and you are all brothers.
And do not call anyone on earth 'father,' for you have one Father, and he is in heaven.
Nor are you to be called 'teacher,' for you have one Teacher, the Christ.
The greatest among you will be your servant. For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted. NIV
Once more who is Israel in the FULL scope and sight of God? Exactly how does God PUT his laws in ones mind or WRITE them on the hearts of men without the hearts and minds of men (knowingly) BELONGING TO HIM?
Heb 8:10-12
This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that time, declares the Lord.
I will put my laws in their minds and write them on their hearts.
I will be their God, and they will be my people.
No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest.
For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more."
NIV
Think about Joseph and Mary?
On your best DAY how would YOU somehow explain to YOUR adopted SON that He truly belongs to God who is also his more than his Natural ....Father?
What happens when we HONESTLY consider the parents of Our children's friends when they're observed trying to be THEIR child's BEST friend?
It's easy to suggest we shouldn't attempt to be their friends as parents when children are tender, yet why NOT?
Exactly WHAT are we somehow seeing as if the REAL reason those movies produce tears whenever we see the Oldest Sibling (Bother or Sister) step in should for some other reason the Parents be FAR removed?
Have you ever tried to righteously APPLY the type of words we often hear being 'Aimlessly" tossed around such as "Friends don't let Friends" do whatever it is only an ENEMY would try to "Entice" us to DO?
Why NOT simply stick with the facts and the SAME type of words that STATE same clearly? Whose type of words though?
en·tice
inˈtīs,enˈtīs/
verb
attract or tempt by offering pleasure or advantage.
Many words SOUND GOOD, yet what does their RIGHTEOUS APPLICATION also look LIKE?
Who as if beside the person of "Job" will also listen to who God tells Job to pray FOR and who GOD does NOT tell Job to Pray 'For"? Who is wise enough to SEE why?
We can hear our songs of worship hopefully aimed towards God suggest "God is Our friend" yet what does that look like when we try and apply that same logic to the children left to Our care who've yet to "Mature"?
To then try and assess what does accompany spiritual maturity in the sight of God?
Is the church that is also "Of God" today watching over spiritual "Midgets" or is the entity trying to call itself the church trying to ENTICE the Sons of God to ALL look like "Spiritual Midgets"?
Is there a difference in the church between being Politically Correct verses being considered Righteous? And both of those having been REALIZED in the Sight Of God?
Notice I did NOT say children who have, "Reached Legal Age"!
Of late I quite often hear the words "Victim Mentality", yet who will be proved 'Wise" until what truly 'Qualifies" a victim of ANYTHING is revealed?
Think about it, most people (as if a jury) clearly understand the type of "Evidence that's required whenever asked to "Believe" the type of words that are attempting to describe a "Rape or Murder victim"?
Are "We" not also being asked to judge (as if ourselves) whenever we're being asked to "Believe" someone in what they've "Said"?
Exactly WHAT do You and I hear whenever we hear someone suggest they're nothing more than a "Victim of Circumstances"?
Many today understand the basic principals of "Projection" whenever we try and project our view on their perspective through our own Life filter, yet what are we also HEARING whenever someone suggest they're suffering from the hurt that comes from "Rejection" throughout their lives?
SO let's recap, no one wants others to Project their person NOR do they want to BE Rejected if the two do NOT agree? We'll let that one simmer for a while on the back burner......
Take any set of given circumstances as if a "Gauntlet" and then try and extrapolate or project the "Expected" outcome?
"Exactly" ....Who were these type of words below aimed towards?
And when the next verse is read in proper context who was God suggesting Misrepresented not only WHAT He thinks but what He has said?
Jer 29:11
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end .
KJV
Is God exempt from the TYPE of people who try and "Project' their thoughts upon His personage? And the outcome of those type Projections?
Jer 29:9-10
For they prophesy falsely unto you in my name: I have not sent them, saith the LORD.
10 For thus saith the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place. KJV
So what happens whenever a preacher is believed above and beyond what God is THINKING and SAYING?
Those type of thoughts that have been aimed towards WHO? The Children of God?
And exactly WHO is it that also suggesting to ANYONE is also their OWN child? The same child who was TEMPORARILY "Given" to the care of ANOTHER?
And exactly who was the TEMPORARY care taker in the GARDEN when God seemingly stepped away for a brief period of Time?
Later seen addressing His Children (on many different levels) He'd planted there In the sanctity of the garden when He asked Where are You?
Exactly what happens when little regard (Guard against) for any type of spirit within any person is NOT seen for who it is that's not only (invisibly) present but also exactly WHO it is that's being "Represented" within any given moment?
Exactly what takes "Place" has been overlooked should even a "Believer" forget who ANY type of thought(s) comes from? is deception that because of being a believer In Christ...Nothing that comes from the mouth of a believer could be corrupt?
1 John 4:1-2
Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
NIV
It is one thing to be "Labeled" a Hold Out without knowing "Why" verses the type who knows exactly why the label of a Holding Out is fitting!
