Finally,
all of you, live in Harmony with one another;
Be
sympathetic, love as brothers,
Be
compassionate and humble.
Do
not repay Evil with Evil or Insult with Insult,
But
with blessing,
Because
to this you were called
So
that you may Inherit a blessing. For,
Whoever
would love life and see good days
Must
keep his tongue from Evil and his lips from Deceitful speech.
He
must turn from Evil and do good;
He
must seek Peace and pursue it.
For
the Eyes of the Lord are on the Righteous
And
His ears Attentive to their Prayer,
But
the Face of the Lord is Against those who do evil.” [Psa. 34:12-16]
Who
is going to harm you if you are eager to do good?
But
even if you should Suffer for what is Right,
YOU
ARE BLESSED.
“Do
not Fear what they Fear; do not be Frightened” [Isa. 8:12]
BUT
IN YOUR HEARTS SET ASIDE CHRIST AS LORD.
Always
be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you
To
give the Reason for the Hope that you have.
But
do this with Gentleness and Respect,
Keeping
a Clear Conscience,
So
that those who speak Maliciously against
Your
good behavior In Christ
May
be Ashamed of their Slander.
It
is better, if it is God's Will, to Suffer for doing Good
Than
for doing Evil.
For
Christ died for Sins once for ALL,
The
Righteous for the Unrighteous,
To
bring you to God.
He
was Put to Death in the body but mad Alive by the Spirit,
Through
Whom also He went and Preached to the spirits in Prison
Who
Disobeyed long ago
When
God waited Patiently while the Ark was being built.
In
it only a Few people, Eight in all, were Saved through water,
AND
THIS WATER SYMBOLIZES BAPTISM
That
now saves you also--
Not
the removal of dirt from the body
But
the Pledge of good Conscience toward God.
IT
SAVES YOU BY THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST,
Who
has gone into Heaven and is at God's Right Hand--
WITH
ANGELS, AUTHORITIES AND POWERS IN SUBMISSION TO HIM.
(1
Peter 3:8-22)
We
are to live in Harmony with the Family of Believers.
We
must turn from Evil and do good;
Seek
Peace and Pursue it.
The
Eyes of the Lord are on us;
His
Ears are Attentive to our Prayers,
But
the Face of the Lord is Against those who do Evil;
Against
Nations who do Evil as well as individuals.
We
are not to Fear what the Unbelieving Fear;
BUT WE
ARE TO SET ASIDE CHRIST AS LORD IN OUR HEARTS,
Always
being Prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks
For
the Reason for the Hope that we have.
As
the Lord told Noah He was going to Flood the World,
And
waited Patiently as Noah built the Ark;
He has
told us that there is Coming, THE DAY OF THE LORD;
The
Night when No One can work for God any longer [John 9:4];
The
Holy Spirit having been Removed [2 Thessalonians 2:7];
Followed
by
The
Three and One-half Years of God's Great Tribulation [Dan. 12:7];
When
He Repays the godless for their godlessness. (Revelation)
We are
to Understand that Christ Jesus Rose from the Grave
And is
Seated at the Right Hand of the Father;
WITH
ANGELS, AUTHORITIES AND POWERS IN SUBMISSION TO HIM.
In
other words, today, Satan and his Demonic Horde
Are in
Submission to Christ Jesus.
They
can do Nothing with out His Permission.
As God
has Written, so shall it be.
The
Scripture cannot be Altered—IT IS ALREADY DONE!
God
stands outside of TIME, in Eternity!
Yet,
we live in TIME,
And
for each of us, and everyone else, we have Free Will,
We can
Choose to Believe God and His Word or Not;
We can
Choose to Love and Revere Him or Not.
Christ Jesus warned us:
Be
always on the Watch,
And pray that you
will be able to Escape All that is about to happen,
And that you may be
able TO STAND before the Son of Man.
(Luke 21:36)
Today,
the World is raging against God, Rushing toward Oblivion. (Psalm 2)
This
World in its Present Form is Passing Away. (1 Corinthians 7:31)
America
is being Ground to Powder because of her SIN against God.
Save
yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As
God has Written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father,
Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
