Covenant Communion with The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit.
And God said: "Let there be light" Genesis 1:3 "and God divided the light from the darkness." Genesis 1:4
My proclamations and goals in Christ Jesus regarding studies and purpose
We have not fully believed until Jesus is able to perform signs and miracles through us. These signs uplift His name and cause people to believe. For: "these signs shall follow those that believe." John 14:11. Luke 7:22
The denominational divisions between God's people are due to "baptisms (teachings/sects)" that should not be. If we are in the fullness of Jesus, we will not come together under the "Baptisms/teachings of men". The Jews came under the Baptism of John that prepared them for the Baptism of Jesus. We are under the Baptism of Jesus. Paul let it be known that he had baptized some. But declared that he did not come to Baptize (bring new teaching). Paul increased in revelation and understanding from Jesus and declared that his revelation did not come from man (man's teachings/baptisms), but from Jesus Christ. Galatians 1:12
Denominations (Baptisms) started in Corinth. Men began to divide under "Baptisms" which are teachings of men and Paul declared that this was "walking after the flesh".
As believers in Jesus, as we abide in Him, our Father will purge (prune) these teachings of man out of us (John 15:2, Heb 12:5-8). There are no doubt thousands of denominations divided proclaiming their teachings as "of God" and absolute.
The goal of this website is to make it easy access to study the Word of God. I include expositor's notes in various various verses. It is up to you to believe in Jesus and commit your heart and ways to Him. He will give you the Holy Spirit. My prayer is that this website focuses on "Jesus Christ and Him Crucified 1 Cor 2:2" and the principles of Covenant Communion. I believe this is the only way for God's children to come out from the baptisms of men and walk in the fullness of The Faith.
John 17:11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one.
John 17:22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one—
What did Jesus profess regarding Religious Temples and false teachers.
his (Jesus) disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple 👉 Mt 24:1
And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone (could be symbolic of: spiritual foundations not of God) upon another (generations of deceit/false religions), that shall not be thrown down (Strong’s #2647 abolished, overthrown, destroyed)
Mark 13:4 His disciples (students) asked Jesus:
#1 Tell us when these things will be. (regarding the foundations of men)
#2 What will be the sign when all these these are to be accomplished?
#3 What shall be the sign of thy coming?
Matthew 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name (Christians) saying, I am Christ (professing Jesus to be the Christ); and shall deceive (mislead) many. (Also Mark 13 and Luke 21)
Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets (Strong’s #5578 definition: One who teaches what is false) shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will be multiplied, the Love of many will grow cold. 👈(read Greek Word for Word translation) 13 But he that shall endure unto the end (keeping the commandments of Jesus which includes repentance Jn 14:15-18, Jn 3:21, 2 Cor 3:7-9) the same shall be saved.
We must take heed and make sure we denounce all that opposes the Word of God. All the teachings of men that cause us to error from the Truth. We must be willing to allow our Father to purge (prune) These powerless forms of God out of our life. We can be sure that we are in the Light as He is in the Light. We can know without a doubt we are abiding in Jesus. Hear the Gospel!
Jesus is the mediator of the New Testament/Covenant also known as Communion which is Fellowship. Heb. 12:24, Heb 9:15,
Jesus shed His blood for the New Testament and paid the price for our sins. Matthew 26:28,
Jesus forgives the sins of believers when we repent.
When we, as believers Confess our sins (turning from), He is faithful and justified in forgiving us and cleansing us from all unrighteousness (1 Jn 1:9) Jesus is our advocate with the Father and He is the propitiation (atonement) for our sins. Not for our sins only, but for the sins
of the whole World (1 Jn 2:1-2), if they so choose to believe (coming out of lawlessness Jn 3:16-21).
Covenant Communion/Fellowship
When we make Jesus Christ our Lord and choose to keep His commandments, Him and His Father will “come and make their abode” with us! They will manifest themselves to us! (Jn 14:15-18) We will know that we know Him! (1 Jn 2:3) Jesus sends us the Comforter, which is The Holy Spirit. (Jn 14:16-17) The Holy Spirit is our teacher (Jn 14:26) and we become His disciples (students Mt 16:24). We need not that any man teach us (1 Jn 2:27). Our revelation comes from the Holy Spirit. To see the Kingdom of God, we must be born of this Spirit in our understanding (Jn 3:6). This is a daily walk achieved through Communion.
The “Prayer of Faith” is the Prayer of Covenant. The Truth is Covenant/Testament
James 5:15 And the prayer of faith (Covenant/Testament/Communion) shall save the sick (spiritually faint, sick, be wearied) and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him (only by the Blood of Jesus which was shed for the New Testament/Covenant. The prayer of Faith is The prayer of Covenant.
James 5:19 Brethren (yes, believers), if any of you do err from the truth (Covenant Communion), and one convert him;
20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner (having become lawless in some way) from the error of his way shall save a soul from death (take heed!), and shall hide a multitude of sins (Jesus shed His blood for the New Testament and the forgiveness of our sins. The Truth is The Covenant.
What is the Prayer of Faith (Covenant/Testament)? It is Communion!
The Covenant Communion Prayer of Faith
#1 We Pray: Our (also translated my) Father in Heaven, Hallowed (Holy) is your name.
We enter into this communion with the understanding that God is Holy and He separates Himself from all that is wicked. We must choose to deny ourselves, due to our carnal nature, in order to walk in His Holiness which will be ministered to us by the Holy Spirit. We must loose our life in or to save it. Come, let us take up our cross and follow Jesus!
#2 Therefore we pray: “Your Kingdom come, your will be done!” Only through this Covenant Communion can our sin nature be crucified daily. We are Loosing our life to find it. we are taking up our cross with our old man nailed to it and following Jesus daily. This is our part of the Covenant. We are laying our filthy garments on the alter in exchange for garments “washed in the blood of the lamb”.. (Read John 14:15-18) When we make this commitment, we enter into this Communion with our Father and His Son Jesus. The Holy Spirit is our minister (Jn 14;15-18, 2 Cor 3:7-9)
We now pray: Give us (me) this day my daily bread: Jesus says: “Take eat, this is my body which was broken for you”. The Holy Spirit ministers Jesus to us. He ministers the Word of God to us. He ministers Peace, Joy and comfort. He also chastens and scourges us. He purges (prunes) us that we may bring forth more fruit (righteous works of God)
#4 When we as believers (having a carnal nature) take up our cross {deny thyself} and follow Jesus in Communion, we therefore pin the old carnal nature to it as we pray: Forgive me of my sins Father! Jesus says: Take drink, this is my blood shed for this New Testament/Covenant Communion and the remission (forgiveness) of your sins. Oh magnify the Lord for He is good! Such Amazing Grace! We are made worthy by the Blood of the Lamb!
#5 Lead us out of temptation and deliver us from all that is evil. As we stay in the center of God’s will by Covenant, we have Peace and all that is needed to endure to the end.
#6 For thine is the Kingdom!
#7 and the Power
#8 and the Glory.
Amen!
Are you a “Christian” who has been walking under the deception of foundational teachings built up by Christians that profess Jesus is Lord yet leave their followers in a powerless and miserable state of sin? Or have you experienced the Saving power of God yet find yourself in a shipwrecked state. Listen to James!
James 1:21 Have humility! Put away your moral filth and wickedness and accept the Word implanted in you (by the Holy Spirit) which is able to save your soul! (Read word for word translation)
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way (the righteous law of God reveals our unrighteousness carnal nature),
and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was (should translate: What manner of person they are
(present tense;) We all have a fallen nature. This is why we all must walk after the Spirit! This is why we’re all partakers of our Fathers chastisement and scourging (John 15:2 Heb 12:6)!
In Christ Jesus, our physical death is our graduation day! No more carnal nature! Endure to the end! Straggling
along? Reading the book of James is a strong warning and a call to: ALL ABOURD!!! This life is the
womb of eternity, the Holy Spirit will breath life into us. We are in the middle of His creation! Let Jesus Christ be formed in you. Let your physical death be your graduation day, not your your entrance into eternal darkness and separation from all that is good!! Don't take this lightly. Your soul is eternal! God has chosen the foolishness of preaching to
save them that believe (John 3:21)
Jn3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him (Jn 3:21) should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world (the goal is Salvation); but that the world through him (by Covenant) might be saved.
18 He that believeth (Jn 3:21) on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not (Jn 3:17-20) is condemned already,
Condemnation #1
because he hath not believed in the name (reputation, manifestation and righteous Holy character) of the only begotten Son of God.
Condemnation #2 and manifestation (fruits/works) of unbelief.
19 And this is the condemnation, that light (Jesus is the Light of the World, The Word of God) is come into the world, and men loved darkness (things that oppose His righteous Law) rather than light, because their deeds (works, desires) were evil. (of the carnal nature)
20 For every one that doeth (choosing) evil (lawlessness) hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved (proven wrong, convicted).
21 But he that doeth truth (keeps the commandments of Jesus Jn 14:15-18) cometh to the light (by the Holy Spirit being our minister 2 Cor 3:7-9), that his deeds (works) may be made manifest, that they are wrought (brought about) in God (by Covenant Communion).
Hopefully some stones of men have been overturned today and you have set you mind on Jesus. Build your house (place of abroad) upon the Rock Today. Let the winds come and the rain fall! In Christ Jesus, you will stand!
As you commit to a closer walk with God, prayerfully focus on John 3, John 14 and John 15. Memorize John 14:15-18 and 2 Corinthians 3:7-9. Memorize John 3:16-21 (believer vs. non-believer) understand that when we fail, many times it’s because we are going in our own direction and not fully dedicated to our Lord Jesus. We can not serve God by our own volition (Read Romans 7:9-25). Through Covenant, we “walk after the Spirit” and not our “carnal nature”. Read Romans 8. Our carnal nature remains and we must surrender to Jesus daily because of it. If you struggle with any sin including lust, drug addiction, alcoholism, food addiction, un-forgiveness and soforth, do not give up. There must be an effort to turn on your part. You must try. The Holy Spirit will quicken you. Keep believing, keep confessing and keep the Faith. Jesus can not lie. Him and His Father will come to you and manifest themselves to you. You will receive the Holy Spirit. Daily repentance and turning from our carnal nature is part of “walking in the light” and “walking after the Spirit”. Refusing to turn from sin, is in no way shape or form abiding in Jesus. If we say that we have fellowship with Him and walk in darkness, we lie and do not the Truth. God is Light and if we abide in Him, we are not in darkness. Those in Him are not in darkness. God is Love!
Hebrews 10:36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
