Q. WHAT did Jesus Christ mean when He told the Sadducees, (who did not want to believe in the supernatural RESURRECTION /unseen miracle working real power side of God):
“You err….not knowing the Scriptures OR the power of God?” (in Matthew 22:29)
Q. Which is more important?
To value, respect, perceive the Holy Bible Scriptures as THE Word of God OR to set more importance in a collection of ministry doctrines which has been passed down from time memorial? (Clue: one is supernatural,God breathed, “living” see Hebrews 4;12)
NOTE: THE AMAZING BIBLE CONTRASTS within 2 TIMOTHY Chapter 3
Q. Wondering if the 2 major scripture passages are juxtaposed in this one infamous important passage…for a (dire) reason?
Here is the entire CHAPTER 3 https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/2-Timothy-Chapter-3/
2 Timothy 3:1-5
v.1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
v2. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
v3. Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good
v. 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
v.5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.v
v. 6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
v7.Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
AND AT THE END OF 2 TIMOTHY 3:16-17
v. 16 “All scripture is given of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness;
v.17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.”
PS Could each of this passages pertain not just to the secular, but also to persons in the Church,including the lay but also top elders, 5 fold offices?
Q. What transpired** to morph the Sweet Infant Christ, ever so genuinely meek and mild, to grow up and transform into the direct, upfront, confrontational, yet nonaccusing or demeaning Tossing the Temple Mammon Chaser’s tables over: Grown Up JESUS?
** “Zeal for His father’s house” SEE MANY TRANSLATIONS OF JOHN 2:17 CLICK ON
Q. ULTIMATELY, whom should we then serve? The Almighty God or humans. Whose favor should we truly seek? Cultures? God’s or Peers, Trends of Doctrines?
(P.C.) “Fear of (hu)man brings a snare but the one who trusts in the Lord shall be safe.” PSALM 29:25
Q. ONE THE LAST DAY, when each and every single human being stands ALONE before the Eternal JUDGEMENT THRONE…what will be then regarded as the Biggest Life Payoff?
Q. An amassed stock portfolio? A 401K? Getting everyone to LIKE you? Power? Ministry or Kingdom Size? Curried favor with the entire world? or WHAT?
We all need to (even right now) be FDR (“FINAL DAY (truly)READY.
And over in China, the pastors are already preparing to be persecuted, and many there, and also in other countries, to die for the sake of the risen One Lord, Jesus Christ.
To put it in perspective….You only have to die twice. Once on your own particular Final Day..but the other is NOW..to die to SELF.
