wholewheatonline.com Search The Kingdom of God Within In Luke 17:21, Jesus mentions a kingdom of God within us. The original Greek text says, “The kingdom of God is within you.” “Within you” is mentioned in the King James Version, New International Version and many other translations of the Bible. “Within you” is also mentioned in the Living Bible. In the much-respected translation by Ferrar Fenton, it plainly says: “The kingdom of God exists within yourself.” There are some translations, such as the Modern Language Bible, that erroneously state, “the kingdom of God is in your midst.” And the Revised Standard Version has it, “in the midst of you.” Some others state, “among you.” The reason for this corruption of Scripture will become abundantly clear in this article. First, let’s see if we can prove by some other statement of Jesus Christ that there is a kingdom of heaven within that must be entered. In Matthew 23:13, Jesus scolded the scribes and Pharisees for not entering the kingdom of heaven within and not allowing others to enter. The Pharisees had taken away the key of knowledge of how to enter the kingdom of God within—by doing acts of righteousness daily for God. Not only did they fail to enter themselves but they were being stumbling blocks to those who were trying to seek God (Luke 11:52). Jesus then gave the keys of the kingdom of God to Peter (Matt. 16:18-19). He gave Peter the knowledge of how to enter the kingdom of God within—by doing acts of righteousness for God without (towards others). There you have it—the proof has been shown to you that there is a kingdom of God or heaven that is entered within. How then, is it entered? Matthew 5:20 says it is entered by acts of righteousness—doing righteous acts or righteous deeds. The Pharisees were no longer practicing righteousness to enter the kingdom within, but rather, they were practicing righteousness to be seen of men. Jesus sternly warned those who would follow Him to be careful not to fall into that deadly trap when they practiced righteousness (Matt. 6:1). In Matthew 9:13 and 12:7, Jesus told the Pharisees that they were lacking in knowledge. The answer showing what they were lacking is found in Psalm 106:3: How blessed are those who practice charity (honesty and justice) and practice righteousness towards others at all times (Prov. 21:3). To do (practice) righteousness and charity (justice) towards others is desired by the Lord rather than sacrifice. This is how a person becomes obedient to the faith of our Lord. This is the narrow Way that few find (Matt. 7:14). The Pharisees had lost the keys to the kingdom—the knowledge of how to repent daily and enter the kingdom of God within by performing acts of righteousness towards others daily to be obedient to the faith (Acts 6:7). But some of the Pharisees were in error—they were practicing self-righteous works. The very same is true for millions today who profess His name but deny Him daily by continuing to be worthless for any good deeds for God (Titus 1:16). Dorcas, who was a true disciple of Jesus Christ, was abounding with deeds of kindness and charity, which she continually did towards others for the Lord (Acts 9:36). All of Jesus’ true disciples and followers were entering the kingdom within by practicing righteousness from without. They were persevering (continually doing good) because they sought for glory and honor and immortality (Rom. 2:7). This is how you obey the truth (Rom. 2:8-10). How many who profess Jesus Christ today are aware of this (John 3:21)? The truth is something you must practice daily (1 John 3:10). And that truth is simply doing good for God daily by putting Jesus’ words into practice (John 8:51). If you continue to walk in your old way of life, you are not practicing the truth daily and you will die (1 John 1:6; Rom. 8:13). If we live like Jesus gave us example to live by practicing righteousness, not only does Jesus’ blood cover our transgressions, but we will truly be born again (1 John 2:29; 1:7). The followers of Jesus Christ were not ignorant. They knew that only those who did good daily for God were of God (3 John 11). And those who wouldn’t practice righteousness for God daily remained of the devil (1 John 3:10; John 3:21). Now you can clearly understand why people incorrectly translate “the kingdom of God is among you” or “in your midst” instead of “within you.” It is because they knew they had not entered that “kingdom of God within.” It condemned them! Jesus has a new nature waiting for you if you do not grow weary in doing good daily to please Him (2 Thess. 3:13; Gal. 6:9). In due time, we will reap that new nature if we don’t get weary in well-doing (Gal. 6:9). We will then be a new creature or creation (Gal. 6:15). Jesus wants to reveal His new nature in you, but in order to do that you must be tested, and you must suffer a little, while you continue to practice doing what is right in God’s sight (1 Peter 4:12; 5:10; 1 John 3:22). Here you have it, if you have been given eyes to see: 1) The kingdom of heaven is within you. 2) You enter it by disciplining yourself to practice righteousness daily towards others for God. 3) Your righteousness must exceed the righteousness of the Pharisees. Until you do the Will of God, which is righteousness, from your heart, you simply will not enter His kingdom (Eph. 6:6; Matt. 5:20). This is how Christ’s nature is formed in you (Gal. 4:19). This is how you enter the kingdom of heaven within (Matt. 7:21). This is how you overcome your evil nature by keeping Jesus’ works and endure to the end (Rev. 2:26). This is how you put to death the deeds of the body so you will live forever (Rom. 8:12-13). This is how you discipline yourself for the purpose of godliness and thus, force your way into that kingdom within (Luke 16:16; 1 Tim. 4:7; 1 Cor. 9:24-27; Heb. 12:1; 1 Tim. 4:8). God will then reveal His nature in you (Rom. 8:18). He wants you to become a partaker of His divine nature (2 Peter 1:4). You now have the truth and you have been given the keys to the kingdom so you, too, can enter it. Study God’s word daily and the Spirit of Jesus will guide you into all truth, as it is happening and continues to happen to all those who are called of God. It is time that millions of professing Christians who are on the broad way know the truth about the narrow Way that few find (Matt. 7:13-14). You simply must do good daily to be good daily, and learn righteousness by practicing righteousness daily for the Lord (Is. 1:16-17; Titus 3:14; Ezek. 33:31-33; Is. 26:10).

wholewheatonline.com Search How to Get out of a Mess A mess is generally made up of many parts. The first thing to do is realize that you are part of it and whatever part you are, makes little difference. Messes are the result of sins, and the good life is the result of righteousness. If you want a mess, continue to sin. If you want the good life, then start being good by doing good (Rom. 12:21; 1 Peter 3:10-11). It is the only way to solve your problems. Now, if you do good for anyone, except God, you will get puffed-up and think you are a pretty nice person and that again is sin. God says your righteousness, if not done to please God, is as a flithy rag or as the original Hebrew text says, dirty menstrual cloth (Is. 64:6). Since Jesus Christ said He was not good, and yet all He did was good, it would be blasphemy for us to think of ourselves as good, except through Jesus Christ (Luke 18:19; 24:19; Acts 10:38; John 21:25). Paul understood this, because he said, "I am convinced that there is no good thing in me" (Rom. 7:18; 8:1). Now, there are some other directions to follow. You have got to care to get there, and you must start to finish. You must keep your eye upon the goal. You must persevere to win your soul (Luke 21:19). The more good you do, the better you will feel. The better you feel, the more good you will do. It is an endless glory race, that makes you wear a happy face. Jesus said it is easy, pleasant and rewarding (Matt. 11:30; 6:33). Jesus Christ wants you to come to Him (Matt. 11:28-29; 2 Tim. 2:7). This is why He came. Will you study His word daily so He can teach you? Will you live to please God every day, in all that you think, do and say? If you do, He will please you and bless all you do, and answer your prayers when you pray. God can help you get out of the mess you are in, if you will obey Him and live for Him daily.

wholewheatonline.com Search Spiritually in Tune With God Have you ever telephoned someone you had on your mind and discovered that person was also thinking of you just before the phone rang? How much more spiritually in tune is God to our every thought (Psalm 94:8-11; 125:4; 1 Cor. 3:20)? There is a way to become spiritually in tune with God, just as there is a way to become spiritually out of tune with God. When we live in sin, we are spiritually out of tune with God. We are in tune with Satan’s wavelengths and we are doing Satan’s will (2 Tim. 2:26). When we repent and come out of a life of sin by living a life of righteousness, we become in tune with the Father, who is righteous (Psalm 11:7; 145:17). All unrighteousness is lawlessness or sin (Rom. 3:23; 1 John 3:4; 5:17). This is why the one who repents is to imitate what is good by doing good (3 John 11). We are to imitate God daily instead of Satan (Eph. 5:1). We are to do good daily instead of evil. Instead of being slaves to unrighteousness, God wants us to repent and become slaves to righteousness (Rom. 6:13, 17-19). God’s Will is righteousness (Psalm 106:3). Satan’s will is lawlessness or unrighteousness. God is righteous and He wants us to imitate Him by practicing righteousness daily (Eph. 5:1). He wants us to glorify His name with good works (Matt. 5:16). Jesus laid out those works in the parable of the sheep and goats found in Matthew 25:33-46. Satan is an enemy of all righteousness and good works when they are done in secret for the glory of God (Matt. 6:1; Eph. 6:6). Why? Because that is how he is crushed in our natures and put under our feet by God (Rom. 16:20). Good works and righteous deeds are God’s Will. When we do good works daily on earth as they are done in heaven, we are in tune with God (Matt. 6:10). Now, all we need to do is stay in tune with God (Matt. 24:13). We will have Jesus’ nature formed in us (Gal. 4:19). We will overcome the evil in our lives by continually doing good toward others for God (Rom. 12:21; 1 Peter 3:10-11, 13). We will have our prayers answered because we are doing God’s Will and pleasing Him in all we do (1 John 3:22; John 8:29; 9:31). Not only that, because we are seeking first God’s kingdom by practicing righteousness for God, the Lord will give us all the things we need (Matt. 6:33; John 8:51). So, what are you waiting for? The Lord is waiting for you to become spiritually in tune with Him. PREV NEXT 3 SIMPLE STEPS TO GET STARTED MORE BIBLE STUDIES PODCASTS HOME All About the Bible PDF © 2025 Whole Wheat International

wholewheatonline.com Search How to Be a Friend of God Being a friend of God is not as difficult as it may seem. It involves a simple matter of respect. You do not obey one whom you do not respect. If you did not respect your earthly father, you did not obey him. If, however, he punished you for disobeying him, you would, in turn, respect and obey him. In the same manner, to obey God is to serve God. To serve God is to love God, and to love God is to serve our neighbor first, before self (1 Cor. 10:24). Even Jesus Christ, our example, did not live to serve Himself, but others (Rom. 15:3). He came to show us how to be servants of God, by being servants of others (Matt. 20:26-28; Phil. 2:5-7). He taught us to serve God by serving the sick, the blind, the lame, the widow in distress; by visiting or caring for orphans; by giving to those who ask things of us; and by doing many such acts of righteousness for God and His glory (James 1:27). These are ways we produce fruits of righteousness for God. God’s Will is righteousness, and when we perform righteousness, we are doing the Will of God on this earth as it is being done in heaven. If the Father in heaven is continually doing righteousness, which He is, and Jesus Christ constantly performed good deeds to be pleasing to the Father when He was here on earth, how much more should we strive to do good deeds for God (John 4:34; 5:30, 34; 6:63; 8:29; 12:47, 50)? We do this by practicing righteousness daily, to please Him in every way, in order to imitate and obey Him (Eph. 5:1). Once we are aware that God rewards righteousness, and punishes wickedness, on a daily basis like a loving father, we know that we reap what we sow (Gal. 6:7). So if all we sow is righteousness, then we will reap God’s blessings each day!

wholewheatonline.com Search Come Out of Their Midst and Be Separate Believe it or not, we live in an uncivilized world. God has shown man that they are but beasts (Eccl. 3:18). Mankind has a heart that is desperately wicked and more deceitful than anything you can imagine. It is so evil, it is impossible to know (Jer. 17:9 King James Version). The days are only getting darker and the world revealing more wickedness as each day goes by. When humans do not obey the Lord, they are like brute beasts (Psalm 73:22). They are self-willed and indulge in the flesh with its corrupt desires, despising the authority of God, instead of living a life of doing good and doing God’s Will (Gal. 5:18-20; Rom. 1:24-32). Doing God’s Will is practicing kindness, justice and goodness towards others. Humans remain creatures of instinct doing Satan’s will in their bodies; they are like beasts meant to be destroyed (2 Tim. 2:26; 2 Peter 2:10). When you have human nature, you are by nature a brute beast (Jude 10). Becoming civilized, then, is a process of living by every word of God (Deut. 8:3; Prov. 30:5; Matt. 4:4). It was never meant for man, whom God created, to direct his own steps and live by the way he thought was best for himself (Jer. 10:23). Mankind was to walk in, live by or keep all of God’s Ways, which God has commanded us to keep for our own good (Deut. 5:33; 8:6; 10:12-13; 19:9). God’s thoughts are not our thoughts, neither are God’s Ways our ways. God’s Ways are all righteous; our ways are all wicked (Is. 55:8; Psalm 145:17). All our ways and thoughts are not good (Is. 65:2). This is why God says, in Isaiah 40:17, that all nations before Him are as nothing. They are accounted to Him as less than nothing, yet there were times when God would spare a whole city if there was just one person who was practicing charity towards others (doing justice) and seeking the truth (Jer. 5:1; Gen. 18:22-32; Dan. 4:35). When will mankind realize it is God Almighty who makes nations great and then destroys them when they forsake Him (Is. 60:12)? God has a policy and He does not change (Mal. 3:6). All nations who forget God will return to the grave (Psalm 9:17; 10:16). It is God who rules over the nations (Psalm 22:28; Job 12:23). Jesus is returning soon to set up His kingdom, which will have no end (Luke 1:33). It will be a kingdom where only righteousness dwells. People will only be keeping God’s Ways and doing God’s Will towards one another each and every day. All the nations who are left will come up from year to year at Jerusalem so they may learn God’s Ways in order to be civilized (Is. 2:3; Micah 4:2). Are you becoming civilized by keeping God’s Ways and doing God’s Will on this earth daily as it is being done by God in heaven (Matt. 6:10)? Are you practicing deeds of kindness and love to everyone you meet? Are you becoming born again by practicing righteousness towards your fellow man daily as Jesus gave us example to do (1 John 2:29)? Are you living this Way for Christ (Col. 3:17)? The Lord is coming soon! It’s time to get on His side, so we are off of His hit list (Is. 66:16). Separate yourself from the world and all of its foolishness (Rev. 18:4; 2 Cor. 6:17-18). Draw away from the world and its distractions, and instead draw near to God and His wisdom (1 John 5:19; Mark 4:19; Mark 8:36; James 4:8). Don’t allow yourself to be influenced by others in your life, who are not living God’s truth wholeheartedly (2 Thess. 2:10-12). Do not allow yourself to be influenced by television, movies, the internet, political figures and those of the world promoting themselves and their worldly causes (Luke 9:25, John 15:19; 1 John 2:15-17). When we look at the definition of faction, in Noah Webster’s 1828 dictionary, it means - A party: in political society, combined or acting in union. It also means, discord, dissension, tumult (the commotion, disturbance or agitation of a multitude usually accompanied with great noise, uproar, confusion of voices). We know who the author of confusion is, Satan himself (1 Cor. 14:33). God uses factions, whether political or other groups in our lives, to reveal who have godly character and are approved, according to Him, so that they may clearly be seen (1 Cor. 11:19; 2 Peter 1:4). These groups reveal who is like-minded, and when it comes to factions, that means like-minded in the world. A faction is listed in Galatians 5:20 as a deed of the flesh, and it tells us that those that participate in the deeds of the flesh will not inherit the kingdom of God (Gal. 5:19-21). God says we are to be in full agreement in what we say, so that there be no factions among us (1 Cor. 1:10 AMP). That we be perfectly united in our way of thinking and judgement, according to God and His Ways (Phil. 2:2; Titus 3:9). We cannot be united if we are divided by anything of this world. We are to do nothing from empty conceit (through factional motives or strife) but with an attitude of humility being neither arrogant or self-righteous, regarding others as more important than yourselves (Phil. 2:3 AMP). It is more important than ever to align yourself only with God and leave all worldliness behind; whether politics, or any other worldly group or individual that promotes something other than the whole truth of God’s Will for us (2 Tim. 3:1-7 AMP). The wisdom and the knowledge of this world is foolishness before God (1 Cor. 3:19). God’s word says that the knowledge of this world is demonic, which means it comes from demons (James 3:15; 2 Thess. 2:2; 1 Tim. 4:1). And be careful, as many will seem as though they promote God but secretly have another agenda (Matt.7:15; 2 Cor. 11:13-15). Isn’t that what is going to happen when the antichrist comes (Rev. 20:1-3)? The message will be so similar to God’s truth, that even the elect, if possible, will be deceived (Matt. 24:24; Mark 13:22). This is why it is so important not to get swept up in what is happening in the world (Luke 21:34-35; Col. 3:2; Heb. 12:1). This is why it is so important to build, and maintain, your stand-alone faith. If we are not studying daily and reminding ourselves continually of this truth, and God’s Ways, then Satan can use that as an open door to manipulate and confuse us (1 Cor. 14:33; John 6:33; Matt. 6:11). We must be sober and spiritually aware to what is all around us (1 Pet. 5:8). It is crucial, as the world is deteriorating and more divided than ever (Mark 3:23-26). Be on the alert, at all times, for deception. We are in the midst of spiritual warfare and must have our spiritual armor on at all times (Eph. 6:10-18). We must be united with God, and only God, knowing we come under His protection and promises (Phil. 2:2; Heb. 4:2; Psalm 91:1-3; Heb. 6:11-13). Remember always that God is in control and He is in the process of fulfilling His plan for this world (Isa. 25:1; Jer. 23:20). We do not want to get in the way of His plan. And, we certainly do not want to be stumbling blocks to anyone who is trying to enter the kingdom, because God is going to make a determination between the righteous and the wicked, the sheep and the goats, the wheat and the tares, the good fish and the bad fish, and the hearers of His word and the doers of His word (Matt. 18:7-9; Rev. 3:15-16; Matt. 23:13). He is making a determination between the ones who are civilized and those who choose not to be civilized (Mal. 3:18; Matt. 25:40-41; 13:37-38, 29-30, 48; James 1:22; John 5:29; Rom. 2:7). The faith of those who have good works is not dead, but alive (James 2:14-26)! Doing good is what makes people civilized. Stay close to God, stay in prayer and study your Bible daily to remind yourself of the truth of His Ways (James 4:8; 1 Thess. 5:17; 2 Tim. 2:15; 2 Pet. 1:13; 2 Pet. 3:1). If you come out of the world and are separate, standing with the Lord, you will be His and He will be yours (2 Cor. 6:16-18). It will surely serve you well in the end (Eph. 4:1-3; 1 Tim. 1:5; Matt. 25:21).

To live this Way, we are to walk as He walked, which means we are to live as He lived. Then we abide in His love (1 John 2:6; John 15:7-9). We are to practice righteousness daily to please the Father in everything we do (1 John 2:29; 3:7, 10, 17-18). We are commanded to do all the good we do in the name of Jesus Christ for the glory of the Father (Col. 3:17). Paul understood what Christ wanted. That is why He told ministers to tell those who have believed in God to be careful to engage in good works (Titus 3:8). Jesus was zealous for good works to please God and this is what He wants us to do. There are those who profess what Jesus Christ preached but see no need for works of any kind in regard to the overcoming process. These are a people who profess to know God but are still living disobedient and detestable lives. They do not know the truth about how to overcome evil by doing good works daily for the glory of the Father in heaven (Psalm 37:27; Rom. 12:21). How do you deny Christ? By not getting involved in a life of good works for God’s glory (Titus 1:16; Matt. 5:16). You cannot expect to have Christ formed in you and living in your heart unless you imitate Christ continually by serving others with love (1 Cor. 11:1). Then, and only then, will the Father reveal His Son in you (Gal. 4:19). God bless those who begin to live this Way without delay.

Jesus Christ is the “door” (John 10:7). He is the Way. He is the one you should listen to. Those who do not preach His pure, complete message are blind guides of the blind, ministers God did not plant; they are Satan’s ministers disguising themselves as ministers of Christ (Matt. 15:13-14; 2 Cor. 11:13-15). They promise people freedom when they themselves are servants of corruption. “Go not after them,” Christ says (Luke 21:8). They keep you on a guilt trip while the message of Jesus Christ frees you from all the religious deception that grips this world. The message of Jesus Christ brings you into the abundant life (John 10:10). Jesus Christ was righteous, because He kept His Father’s sayings (John 12:47, 50). Jesus Christ would not have been righteous if He refused to keep His Father’s sayings. The Father’s sayings are righteous and Jesus Christ subjected Himself to that righteousness (Rom. 10:3). God’s righteousness became Jesus Christ’s righteousness (Heb. 5:9). Then Jesus Christ’s righteousness became the Apostle Paul’s righteousness, because Paul imitated Christ and taught others to do the same (1 Cor. 11:1). God is reproducing Himself. He is making more sons of righteousness. You are born again when you practice righteousness (1 John 2:29). Practicing righteousness is what makes you righteous in God’s eyes (1 John 3:7). Doing righteousness is how you glorify God (Matt. 5:16). Christ is making righteous people for Himself (Titus 2:14). You cannot grow weary in doing good deeds unless you are doing good deeds (Gal. 6:9; 2 Thess. 3:13). Who is there to harm you if you do not prove zealous in doing good deeds for God (1 Peter 3:13)? Your nature! We are our own worst enemy (Gen. 4:7). If we are not living for God every day, we are by nature, living for Satan (2 Tim. 2:26).

wholewheatonline.com Search Can We Be Perfect? The Lord said to Abraham in Genesis 17:1, “Walk before Me, and be perfect.” Then the Lord said to His disciples in Matthew 5:48, “Be thou perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect.” Is Jesus lying to us or telling us to be something we cannot be? The Lord told the ancient Israelites in Deuteronomy 18:13 that they were to be perfect before Him. It may surprise you to know that the first person to be perfect was righteous Abel and the second was Enoch. Enoch was perfect because he walked with God, which means he walked like God walks or lives (Gen. 5:22-24; 1 John 3:12; Eph. 5:1). Enoch, then, knew what God’s Will was and did God’s Will (which is righteousness) daily on the earth by being a servant to others in need. God’s word also describes Noah as being perfect, blameless or complete because he, like Enoch, walked with God (Gen. 6:9—see margin note in the New American Standard Version). Job was also called blameless or perfect or complete by God (Job 1:1, 8; 2:3). It’s time to unravel the mystery of what Jesus meant when He said to be perfect. Remember the terms perfect, blameless, complete and walking with God, as they will help to unfold the true meaning of the mystery of being perfect in God’s eyes. Perfect means mature or perfect in attitude toward God—or wholehearted. Perfect means that the righteousness you do toward others (doing God’s Will for God’s glory) comes from your heart (Matt. 5:20; Eph. 6:6). Being perfect, then, is being spiritually mature (Phil. 3:15 NASV—see margin). Perfect is being wholly devoted to pleasing God in all your ways (1 Kings 8:61; 2 Chron. 16:9). Being perfect is maintaining an honest and good heart before the Lord at all times (Luke 8:15). Perfect is being complete in God’s eyes—one who is no longer struggling with the flesh with its evil passions and desires (2 Cor. 13:9, 11; Gal. 5:24). Perfect is allowing Jesus Christ to crush Satan’s nature in you and put it under your heel (Rom. 16:20). Perfect is being zealous for what is good for God’s glory (1 Peter 3:11-13). Being perfect is overcoming our evil natures by keeping Jesus Christ’s works that He came to show us. We are to endure to the end, keeping His works by putting them into practice daily in our lives (Rev. 2:26; John 14:12). Perfect is having Jesus Christ’s nature formed in us by God (Gal. 4:19). Perfect is being zealous for good works instead of making God angry by being lukewarm or cold for them (Rev. 3:10, 15). Perfect is being found worthy by God to go to a place of safety and escape what is soon to come upon the whole world (Rev. 3:10; Luke 21:36 King James Version)—because you are perfected in love, perfected in being a servant of others for God, and perfected in a life of charity towards others (Luke 11:41). When you practice righteousness daily for God in thought, word and deed, you are considered righteous, as God is righteous, says 1 John 3:7. When you continue in this holy Way of living, God perfects His new nature in you (Heb. 12:23; Gal. 4:19). You do the practicing, God does the perfecting (1 Cor. 3:7). The Lord then disciplines us for our good, that we might share His holiness (Heb. 12:10). Even Jesus learned obedience to the Father by the things which He suffered and as a result, He was made perfect by God, as all who obey Him shall become (Heb. 5:8-9). Dorcas was practicing this righteous Way of life by abounding with deeds of kindness and charity, which she continually did to be pleasing to the Lord (Acts 9:36). Then she was considered perfect by God. As a result of her perfect attitude, God allowed her to be resurrected to mortal life, showing that those who have a life of good works—which is true repentance—will come to a resurrection of eternal life when the Lord returns (John 5:29). On the other hand, those who profess they know the Lord but remain worthless for living a life of good works for God’s glory, deny the Lord. They are not living the Way Jesus came to show us all how to live in order to be right in God’s sight, but rather, are continuing to live detestable and disobedient lives before God daily (Titus 1:16; 2:7, 14; 3:8). In conclusion, then, being perfect is being righteous, and being righteous is being holy, and being holy is being blameless in God’s eyes (Eph. 1:4). When you walk with God, you keep only His Ways, which are all righteous (Psalm 145:17). This is done today by keeping Jesus Christ’s words that He received from the Father, by putting them into practice in your daily life (John 8:51). This is how you imitate the Way God lives and talks and walks (Eph. 5:1; 1 Peter 4:11). It’s as simple as that! If it is with great difficulty that the righteous are saved (those who continually do acts of righteousness for God as Jesus did), what will happen to those who are not obedient to the Lord (1 Peter 4:18)? What will happen to those who refuse to obey Him (Matt. 25:41)? Jesus was righteous, perfect, holy and blameless. He came to show us, as well as tell us, how to live this Way of righteousness and, thus, come out of a life of evil and enter a glorious life of goodness (Matt. 21:32; 2 Peter 2:21). By entering a life of goodness, we leave our old lives behind and enter the life of blessings, joy and peace. This is the life He has waiting for all those who will leave their wicked ways behind them (Acts 3:26). This is how to repent and return to God, that your sins may be wiped away (Acts 3:19). This is how to be obedient to the faith and be sprinkled with the Lord’s blood for your past sins (Acts 6:7; 1 Peter 1:2). You must practice the truth daily like Jesus did to have true fellowship with the Lord (3 John 11; John 3:21). Practicing God’s word daily (practicing righteousness daily for the Lord) is how you walk in the light of God’s word, which is obedience. This is how you are cleansed from all unrighteousness and have the blood of Jesus Christ cover your sins (1 John 1:7). These truths are not known by many in the world today. These truths reveal why many people’s lives are not changing, even though they claim they are disciples of Christ. Now you know how to be perfect, complete and blameless in God’s sight. Simply walk in God’s Ways by putting Jesus Christ’s words into daily practice in your life, and you will live forever (John 11:26; 12:48; 15:22; Matt. 7:21; 1 John 2:17). God bless your every step!

Becoming a New Person Jesus Christ says, "If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me.” Jesus is telling us that we are expected to live as He lived. How do we do that? We are to keep His sayings. Jesus Christ’s sayings are the works He did on this earth as an example, that we should walk in them. We cannot possibly be converted to Jesus Christ if we do not keep His sayings! God says that if we practice living like Christ by keeping His sayings, we are truly born again. This is how we overcome evil and resist Satan daily. If you have not turned to the Lord and have not started the process of building godly character, why not turn to the Lord today? Begin living the godly Way. Please Him in all you do, and He will make a new person out of you. If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also; if anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him. John 12:26 Truly, truly, I say to you, if anyone keeps My word he will never see death. John 8:51 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them. Ephesians 2:10 If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone also who practices righteousness is born of Him. 1 John 2:29 He who overcomes, and he who keeps My deeds until the end, to him I will give authority over the nations.

wholewheatonline.com Search How to Please the Lord When Jesus returns and sets up His world-ruling government in Jerusalem, all the nations of the earth will stream into it. They will say, "Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord that He may teach us concerning His Ways, and that we may walk in His paths." He will teach people how to live their lives to please Him (Is. 2:2-3; Micah 4:1-4). Nation will not go to war against nation anymore, and they will never again learn war (Is. 2:4). Everyone will invite his neighbor over for dinner (Zech. 3:10). What will Jesus Christ teach the nations concerning His Ways when they come up to Jerusalem? He will instruct them to help those in need (Matt. 25:31-40). "Dispense true justice, and practice righteousness by practicing kindness and compassion each to his brother. Do not oppress the widow or the orphan, the stranger or the poor; and do not devise evil in your hearts against one another," the Lord of Hosts says (Zech. 7:9-10). "These are the things you should do: speak the truth to one another; judge with truth and judgment for peace in your gates. Also let none of you devise evil in your heart against another, and do not love perjury; for all these are what I hate" (Zech. 8:16-17). People in the past refused to pay attention to God (Zech. 7:11). But it is prophesied that people will listen, when Jesus Christ comes back to rule the world (Zech. 8:20-23; 14:9). Man says today, "What should I do to please the Lord? Offer my firstborn for my rebellious acts?" Christ says, "I have told you, oh man, what is good. Practice righteousness. Practice justice. Practice loving one another and being kind to one another and walk humbly with your God" (Micah 6:8). Is this not what He told Cain (Gen. 4:7; 1 John 3:10-12), Abraham (Gen. 18:19), and Moses (Heb. 3:5)? And is this not what Daniel knew and told the king (Dan. 4:27), and what Jesus told us? Overcome evil by practicing righteousness for God in His name for His glory (Rom. 12:21; Col. 3:17; Matt. 5:16). Practice hospitality by inviting the blind and lame over for dinner (Rom. 12:13; Luke 14:13). Share your clothes, your money and your food with those in need, and share your home with the weary traveler (Luke 3:11; 1 Tim. 6:17-18; 1 John 3:17). We are without excuse when we consider the Scripture that says, "To the one who knows to do good (practice righteousness) and does it not, to him it is sin" (James 4:17). God’s word also says, "How blessed are those who practice righteousness at all times" (Psalm 106:3; 11:7).

wholewheatonline.com Search God's Royal Insurance Policy Being a servant of God has so many benefits that it truly is a royal insurance policy. God’s royal insurance policy protects you from famine, disease and war (Psalm 33:19; 91:3, 5-7; 103:3; Prov. 10:3). It will lead you out of all your troubles (Job 5:20-27; Prov. 11:8; 12:13, 21). All things in life turn out for good for those who are the policyholders (Rom. 8:28). If someone came to your door and offered such a policy, and you had faith in the company, it would be the easiest policy in the world to sell (Acts 2:40). This policy gives you wisdom just for the asking, spiritual power just for the asking, and answered prayer, when in accordance with the Will of the policy (James 1:5; 1 John 3:22; John 9:31; 15:7, 16; 16:24; Matt. 21:22). It guarantees you abundance, joy, peace and love, as Abraham had (John 10:10; 17:13; Gen. 24:1; 25:8). It guarantees you obedient children who do not go astray when they are older (Prov. 22:6) when you follow the royal advice of Proverbs 29:15 and 17. It even guarantees you power to get wealth the right way—God’s Way (Prov. 10:22; 13:21). God wants you to partake in this royal insurance policy, but you must remain faithful to the premium by living Christ’s Way of life. Jesus Christ qualified you to be a policyholder regardless of your present condition, but you must not stay in your present condition. You must die to self and deny your old way of life daily (1 Cor. 15:31; Luke 9:23). Instead, you must live Christ’s new Way of life (Heb. 10:20; Matt. 21:32). This is done by practicing righteousness, good deeds and good works to please and glorify the Father (1 John 2:29; Gal. 6:9; John 10:25, 32, 37-38; 14:12; Matt. 5:16). You must do all that you do and say in Christ’s name as a happy slave of Christ (Col. 3:17; Eph. 6:6; Rom. 6:18-19). Overcome your nature by doing good, being zealous, persevering in good works and keeping Christ’s deeds, which are all righteous—God’s righteousness (1 Peter 3:13; Rom. 12:21; 2:7; 10:3; Luke 21:19; Rev. 2:26; Prov. 19:17). You must strive until God creates in you a new nature, establishes you, and puts your nature under your heel (Luke 13:24; Prov. 22:9; 1 Peter 5:10; Heb. 10:36; Rom. 16:20). Jesus Christ’s Way is easy and pleasant (Matt. 11:30). Children would have no problem with it (Matt. 19:14; 18:4). But once you start, don’t look back; just keep going straight forward into the good life, which is the godly life that God has been waiting for many to live (Luke 17:31; 1 Tim. 4:7; Eph. 5:1; 1 Cor. 11:1; Titus 1:1).

"You go to heaven when you die." MISCONCEPTION: You go to heaven or hell when you die. THE TRUTH IS: God’s word says your body returns to dust and your soul sleeps. When Jesus resurrects all who are in their graves, only those who had good works will come to a resurrection of eternal life (John 5:29). Doesn’t it seem weird that the world teaches salvation cannot be earned by good works, discouraging the many from having any good works by this false incomplete teaching, when Jesus will give eternal life only to those who had good works? King David knew he would be sleeping in the grave (Psalm 17:15). Jesus’ disciples knew that King David did not ascend to heaven when he died (Acts 2:34). They knew that David and his grave were still there in the ground to that day (Acts 2:29). In the oldest book in the Bible, the book of Job, it states, “So a man lies down and does not rise until the heavens be no more. The dead will not awake or be aroused from their sleep” (Job 14:12). Job knew the Lord would call him from his grave (Job 14:14), just like Jesus said He would (John 5:28-29). All you need do is look up “sleep” in a Bible concordance to find that the soul sleeps, and those who teach differently are not teaching the biblical truth on death. So you don’t go to heaven when you die. That’s just another pagan lie. Jesus said Himself that no man has ascended to heaven except Himself (John 3:13). Was He lying? Jesus is the only one at this time who has immortality (1 Tim. 6:16). You must admit, if the pagan teaching that you go to heaven when you die was true, then why would we need a resurrection? Everyone would be immortal already, wouldn’t they? You now have read the truth from God’s word. Many have been deceived, but now you know the truth from God’s word.

wholewheatonline.com Search Believe it or Not If you have been given ears to hear, and if you are being called of God, if you are being drawn by God’s Spirit, then there is indeed good news for you (Matt. 13:14-17; Acts 2:47; John 6:44, 65-66). Believe it or not, Jesus Christ came to bless you, by showing you how to turn from your wicked ways (Acts 3:26). The only reason you weren't living a blessed life before is your sins were withholding God’s blessings from you (Jer. 5:25). Jesus wants to make a change for the good in your life. He wants you to live the rest of your life to please Him and no longer do what is pleasing to yourself. He says if you will do this, He will bless you, answer your prayers, heal your sicknesses, forgive all your sins—even the sins of your father and grandfathers the sins you are paying for that go three or four generations back (Ex. 20:5; Num. 14:18). What a deal, and that’s not all. There is more. God will give you eternal life. He will resurrect you from the grave, should you die while living the good life, which is the God life. Yes, if you will but begin to imitate the Lord in your life and use His Spirit that He will give to you freely to live this wonderful life-changing Way, you’re on your way (Acts 5:32). God has even made a provision, when necessary, in the last days to bypass the need for a person to lay hands on you for His Spirit. All you need do is ask Him to give it to you (Luke 11:13). In regard to baptism, you can have a good friend baptize you by fully submersing you in a swimming pool, hot tub, lake, etc. (Matt. 28:19). God’s Spirit is a Spirit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Gal. 5:22-23). All these qualities can be summed up in the word charity (Luke 11:41). This is what the Lord wants you to practice towards others until He has a chance to form His new nature in you (Gal. 4:19). The Lord wants you to learn to be a servant of others so that you can rule with Him in a few short years and teach the nations of this earth righteousness (Rev. 2:26-27; Is. 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3). The Lord wants you to learn to be a servant of others, so that you can be an example to society and perhaps lead others to His Ways by doing so (Titus 2:7). But first we must discipline ourselves for the purpose of godliness daily (1 Tim. 4:7; 6:3; Titus 1:1) so that we might be found worthy to help God in the end (Rev. 19:14-15). If we are being called to be a kingdom of priests to reign on this earth, what are we waiting for (Rev. 5:10)? It is time to learn how to serve others and learn righteousness by doing so (Is. 1:16-20; Rom. 15:2-3; Matt. 20:26-28; Mark 9:35). This is how we will abide forever (Psalm 37:27; 1 Peter 3:10-11; Rom. 12:21; Rev. 2:26). What are you waiting for? Begin a life in service to God by: • Studying God’s word each and every day (Acts 17:11; 2 Tim. 2:15). • Learning to apply it in every way. • Praying for your needs and the needs of others (1 Thess. 5:17; Col. 4:2; James 5:16). Then, keep pleasing the Lord and He will answer your prayers (1 John 3:22; John 9:31; 8:51).

How to Have Your Prayers Answered One of the many blessings that comes from living the new life in Christ is answered prayer. Because we live only to please God every day by performing God’s Will in our lives, we assure our hearts before God and we can ask in prayer without doubting. We know He considers us righteous because we practice righteousness for God. And we know He hears the prayers of the righteous. Because we are seeking to please God in all our ways, we are abundantly blessed and our prayers are answered. Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life. Romans 6:4 We know that God does not hear sinners; but if anyone is God-fearing and does His will, He hears him. John 9:31 Little children, make sure no one deceives you; the one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. 1 John 3:7 The Lord is far from the wicked, but He hears the prayer of the righteous. Proverbs 15:29 "Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this," says the Lord of hosts, "if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows."

Como un estudiante diligente de la Biblia, tienes que comprobar lo que se escribe en estos Estudios Bíblicos. Lee todo el artículo primero, sin buscar las escrituras. Después vuelve a leerlo, pero ahora buscando la escritura; subrayando o marcando cada verso, para que te sea fácil encontrarlo en otra ocasión. 1 Declaracion de Fe de Whole Wheat Creemos que Jesucristo es el Hijo de Dios, que vino en la carne y murió por los pecados de la humanidad. Creemos que aceptar a Jesucristo como nuestro Salvador significa vivir toda una nueva forma de vida y no vida a la carne con sus pasiones y deseos mal, sino que, viviendo en el Espíritu, que está cometiendo todas nuestras maneras de ser una bendición para el Señor. Creemos, como dice el apóstol san Pablo, que uno debe traer buenas obras significaba para el arrepentimiento y luego llegar al bautismo (Hechos 26:20; Lucas 3:8, 10-11). Creemos que Dios en el cielo, envió a Su Hijo Jesucristo, que nos muestran cómo amarse los unos a los otros. Creemos que si usted va a vivir caritativamente, vas a vivir como Jesucristo nos dio ejemplo para vivir en pensamiento, palabra y obra. Creemos vivir caritativamente es poner primero a los demás y no llevar la cuenta de las injusticias cometidas contra nosotros por otros. Debemos amar a nuestros enemigos y hacer el bien para ellos. Esto significa que no debemos hacer nada a sabiendas de que serían de ofenderlos. Creemos que debería ser un siervo de los otros para la gloria de Dios (Mat. 23:11). Estamos en el proceso de perfeccionamiento de todos nuestros caminos, haciéndolos caridad hacia el prójimo, así como agradables a Dios (Lucas 11:41). Creemos que cuando hacemos todo lo que es agradable a los ojos de Dios, estamos guardando Sus mandamientos y haciendo su voluntad (Juan 9:31). Entonces sabemos que vamos a recibir lo que le pedimos (1 Juan 3:22). Creemos que vivir de esta manera por servir a los demás, somos obedientes y tener nuestros pecados cubiertos por su sangre (1 Pedro 1:2; 1 Juan 1:6-7). Creemos que vivir nuestras vidas para ser agradable al Señor diariamente es fácil, agradable y muy gratificante y cambio de vida (Mat. 11:30). Creemos que hemos sido creados en Cristo Jesús para buenas obras, las cuales Dios preparó de antemano para que anduviésemos en ellas" (Ef. 2:10). Creemos que no puede ganar la salvación por buenas obras porque somos salvos por gracia y es un don; sin embargo, diariamente el arrepentimiento hacia Dios requiere una vida de buen hacer y él es glorificado cuando hacemos el bien para él (Mat. 5:16). Esta vida de bien haciendo es llamado el Camino de la justicia en la palabra de Dios, y define cómo debemos vivir diariamente ante el Señor (Mat. 21:32; 2 Pedro 2:21). Creemos que poner las palabras de Jesús en la práctica diaria en nuestras vidas son las indicaciones para el arrepentimiento y la vida eterna (Juan 12:49-50; 8:51). Creemos que como Dios revela su palabra a nosotros, nosotros debemos obedecer. Creemos que nadie debe añadir o restar de las palabras de Jesús (Marcos 7:7). Creemos que la religión pura incorrupto está sirviendo a los necesitados diariamente a Dios y mantenernos sin mancha del mundo (Santiago 1:27). 2 Todo lo Referente a las Obras ¡Satanás es enemigo de la justicia, y eso incluye buenas obras! Él confunde las obras de la ley con las obras de la fe. Así, es como hay muchas fes sin obras. ¿Acaso la Fe de Jesús tuvo obras? Se dice que Jesús hizo muchas obras, que si se hubieran escrito en detalle, es posible que ni aun en el mundo cabrían los libros que se hubieran escrito. (Juan 21:25; 20:30). ¿Acaso Jesús dijo que Sus seguidores tendrían obras? Él dijo, “En verdad, en verdad, les digo, que aquel que cree en Mí, las obras que Yo hago, el hará también; y aún mayores hará, porque Yo voy al Padre” (Juan 14:12). Jesús hizo buenas obras en el nombre del Padre y para gloria del Padre (Juan 8:54; 10:25; 10:32; Mateo 5:16). Él hizo las mismas obras que miro que el Padre hace (Juan 4:34; 5:19). Él les dijo a todos sus seguidores, que hicieran las mismas obras aquí en la tierra así como son hechas en el cielo, porque el hacer las obras de Dios es el hacer la Voluntad de Dios (Mateo 6:10; 7:21). Estas obras son incomprendidas, por un mundo que está siendo engañado y mal guiado (Lucas 6:46). Jesús amonestaba continuamente a Sus seguidores y les decía que fueran hacedores de buenas obras. Jesús no vivió para ser complacido pero, para complacer a los demás (Romanos 15:3; Mateo 20:28). Jesús agradaba a su prójimo para bien de Él y para su edificación (Romanos 15:2). El no buscaba su propio bien, sino que se negaba a si mismo diariamente, al solo hacer buenas obras para el prójimo (Lucas 9:23; Mateo 25:33-46; 1 Corintios 10:24). El tomo forma de esclavo, y así nos enseñó cómo hacer buenas obras (Filipenses 2:7; Mateo 23:11). Él no vivió para sí mismo buscando sus propios intereses, sino buscando los intereses de otros (Filipenses 2:4). El tener fe con obras significa el servir a otros que están en necesidad, para gloria de Dios (Mateo 5:16; Santiago 2:14-18). La Fe de Jesús era una fe de buenas obras y no solo de palabras (1 Juan 3:18-19). Es una Fe que se perfecciona por medio de obras (Santiago 2:22). Una Fe con obras no es una fe en vano (Santiago 2:20). Una Fe con obras no está muerta, pero viva porque tiene obras justas (Santiago 2:26; Romanos 8:10). La fe que es servicial hacia los demás es la fe a la cual Dios recompensa, porque es la fe que le complace (Lucas 14:13-14). El hacer buenas obras es como glorificas a Dios diariamente y así haces la Voluntad de Dios en esta tierra (Mateo 5:16). El así te puede bendecir diariamente, cuando haces buenas obras para Dios (Efesios 6:8). Así formas un carácter piadoso (espiritual) y te disciplinas para el propósito de la piedad (1 Timoteo 4:7). Las buenas obras son el buen fruto de tu árbol espiritual (Juan 15:16; Colosenses 1:10; Mateo 3:10). ¡Ahora ya tienes la verdad de palabra de Dios referente a las buenas obras! 3 Aquellos que Hacen lo Bueno La palabra de Dios dice la persona que hace lo bueno es de Dios (3 Juan 11). ¿Por qué es esto? Porque Dios es bueno (Marcos 10:18). ¿Por qué? Porque Dios hace lo bueno. La palabra “bueno” es derivada de la palabra “Dios”. ¿En qué clase de condiciones estaríamos si tuviéramos un Dios que solo tuviera buenos pensamientos pero jamás hiciera nada al respecto? ¡No estaríamos aquí! ¡Nada bueno se haría! Tendríamos a un Dios que sería bueno para nada, pero esto, es imposible. Si quieres ser como Dios y ser considerado bueno, tus buenos pensamientos tienen que manifestarse con buenas acciones. ¿Si hacer lo malo es malo, el hacer lo bueno es bueno? ¿Si el hacer lo malo es considerado impiedad; falta de compasión, de fe religiosa, de misericordia, de dignidad y desobediencia, entonces el hacer lo bueno cambiaría todos estas palabras negativas? ¿No es esto el resultado de acciones positivas? ¿Empiezas a ver lo que significa el estar arrepentido? ¿Puedes ver como cualquiera que no se arrepienta al cambiar sus acciones y hacerlas buenas, debería de y tendría que perecer de esta tierra (Mateo 3:10). ¿Puedes ver que el hacer lo bueno es todo lo que Dios espera de nuestro arrepentimiento? ¿No es esto lo mismo que un padre esperaría, de sus queridos hijos? ¿Puedes comprender que cuando los hijos hacen lo correcto ante su padre, sus acciones son las que demuestran amor y así, le son aceptables a Él (Hechos 10:34-35)? ¿Puedes ver por qué el verdadero mensaje de Dios es un mensaje para niños? ¿Puedes ver, que a menos que te vuelvas como un niño ante tu Padre celestial no podrás convertirte y reconciliarte con Él y así entrar al reino de los cielos (Mateo 18:3-5)? Es por esto que solo los que hacen lo bueno son de Dios (3 Juan:11) 4 ¿Cómo era Jesús? Jesús era una persona agradable porque Él era bondadoso extrovertido y gentil de espíritu. Era muy compasivo y les demostraba caridad a los pobres a los humildes y a quien sea que no tuviera ayuda. Tenía muchos amigos, unos más cercanos que otros. Pedro y Lázaro eran muy especiales para El. También en ese tiempo muchas mujeres eran sus amigas y de igual manera Él estaba muy cercano a algunas de ellas. Jesús hizo el trabajo de su padre al proclamar que el reino del cielo estaba cerca; para aquellos que cambiaran su vida al arrepentirse (Mat. 4:17). Jesús vino a proclamar la buena vida con Dios. El vino a proclamar que cuando vives una vida así, aseguraras bendiciones, una paz abundante, alegría y solo cosas buenas (Juan 10:10; 15:11). También que todas tus oraciones sean contestadas (Juan 14:14; 15:7; Mat. 7:7). Jesús sabía que no iba a poder cambiar a la gente que anduviera en malos caminos. Él no podría forzar a nadie a arrepentirse pero, Él podría proclamar el mensaje como un testigo. Este mensaje son las buenas noticias de como deshacernos de nuestra mala naturaleza al practicar los caminos de Dios para que Dios nos pueda bendecir (Hechos 3:26). Todo lo que tenemos que hacer es imitar a Jesús Cristo (1 Cor. 11:1). Él era nuestro ejemplo viviente, enseñándonos, por medio de Sus buenas obras que tan fácil es vencer a nuestra naturaleza y así vivir una vida piadosa (Juan 10:32; Mat. 11:30). No todos los que entendieron Su mensaje lo tomaron de corazón, pero algunos sí (Mateo 13:19-23). Jesús era como un vendedor ambulante, vendiendo una buena manera de vivir; pero muy pocos estaban interesados o creyeron su mensaje (Mat. 11:30; 22:14). Varios de los pocos que respondieron a su mensaje y se esforzaron para entrar por la puerta estrecha, al vivir para Dios día con día no pudieron, pero otros sí y así perseverando hasta el fin fueron salvados. (Lucas 13:24; Mat. 10:22; 24:13). A todos ellos se les fue recordado que no se preocuparan en hacer el bien (Gal. 6:9; 2Tes. 3:13). Se les dijo que si perseveraban, recibirían el precio de gobernar las naciones de este mundo con Cristo (Apocalipsis 2:26-27). También la naturaleza de Jesús Cristo seria formada en ellos (Gal. 4:19). Aquellos que continúan sacrificándose haciendo el bien para gloria de Dios diariamente; eventualmente entraran al reposo de Dios (Heb.4:10; 13:16,21; Rom.12:1-2). ¿No es este un mensaje sencillo? Sin embargo ahora, no se vive entre los muchos que profesan Su nombre, simplemente no lo conocen (Titos 1:16). Ahora ya sabes cómo era Jesús y que tan simple era su mensaje, imita a Jesús diariamente para que seas un ejemplo para muchos; ciertamente esta es la verdadera y única manera de vivir (1 Cor.11:1; Juan 3:21; 1 Juan 1:6-7). 5 ¿Hacemos El Bien Automáticamente? Hay muchos cristianos bienintencionados, que están esperando que Dios oprima un botón para que ellos hablen lo correcto y así estar dispuestos a servir a los demás. Ellos piensan que Dios les dará el deseo de servir a otros, y que automáticamente teniendo el Espíritu de Dios podrán llevar una vida llena de buenas obras para Cristo. Mientras tanto; Dios sigue esperando, y esperando, y esperando, a que ellos empiecen una nueva vida en Cristo. Muchas de estas mismas personas sienten que al forzase a hacer buenas obras para Dios estarían participando sus propias obras de justicia, para su propia gloria y así tratar de ganarse su salvación. ¿Qué es lo en verdad está pasando? ¿Qué es lo que la Biblia dice? ¡Vamos a descubrirlo! La Biblia dice que nosotros glorificamos al Padre al hacer buenas obras (Mateo 5:16). Tu entraras al reino del cielo con obras justas (Mateo 5:20). Jesús Cristo les dijo a sus seguidores que ellos harían más obras para Dios que las que Él hizo (Juan 14:12). El ser celoso de buenas obras forma parte de vestirte con toda la armadura de Dios (1 Pedro 3:13; Efes. 6:11). Al guardar las obras de Cristo, vences a tu naturaleza y así, te pones la naturaleza justa de Jesús Cristo (Apocalipsis 2:26). En la Biblia, se les advierte a los creyentes que no se preocupen de hacer buenas obras (Gal. 6:9; 2Tes. 3:13). Los apóstoles dijeron a los creyentes que se ocuparan en buenas obras (Tito 3:8). Ellos les recalcaron que era algo que tenían que aprender a hacer. (Tito 3:14). No iba a ser algo automático. Ellos tendrían que esforzarse, ser diligentes y perseverar en hacer buenas obras (Lucas 13:24; Heb.4:11, 10:24; Rom.2:6-7). Se les dijo que se esmeraran y estén entusiasmados al hacer buenas obras (Apoc.3:15; Tito 2:14). Aun a los ricos se les dijo que fueran ricos en buenas obras (1Tim. 6:17-18). Esto, era un requerimiento para las viudas (1 Tim. 5:10). Esto, es lo que continuamente hacían los discípulos de Jesús Cristo (Hechos 9:36; 10:2). Pablo forzaba su cuerpo a sujeción, para así estar dispuesto a ser sirviente de la justicia (1 Cor.9:27; Rom.6:18-19). Él era siervo de Jesús Cristo y hacía de corazón obras justas para Dios. (Efesios 6:6). Él sabía que al hacer obras justas, dejaría a Dios, aplastar a su naturaleza satánica bajo sus pies (Rom.16:20). Él sabía cómo forzar su entrada al Reino (Lucas 16:16; 17:21). Y al poder descansar de todos los trabajos de la carne; el entro al reposo de Dios y encontró la paz interna. (Hebreos 4:10). Satanás es enemigo de todos los que practican rectitud y justicia para Dios o los que viven como Dios vive. Satanás predica en contra de cualquier clase de obras hechas para gloria de Dios, y así continúa manteniendo cautivos a toda la gente, haciendo su voluntad en lugar de hacer la voluntad de Dios, la cual se hace diariamente en el cielo. (2 Tim. 2:26; Mat. 6:10). ¡No seas engañado religiosamente! Tu conocerás a los seguidores de Dios por sus obras (Mat. 7:20-21). La palabra de Dios dice que aun los ministros de Satanás serán juzgados por sus obras les guste o no (2Cor. 11:15). ¡Bendecidos son los que en todo tiempo practican rectitud y Justicia (Sal. 106:3)! 6 Como Arrepentirte ¿Cómo es que te arrepientes? Te arrepientes al producir buenos frutos. Produces buenos frutos al hacer buenas obras (Colosenses 1:10). ¿Qué tipo de buenas obras son buenos frutos? Aquí hay algunas ideas. 1. Estudia para ser aprobado por Dios. Estudia tu Biblia, para que si alguien te hace una pregunta le des una buena respuesta (2Tim. 2:15). 2. Ora por otros (Col. 4:2-3; 1Tesalonisenses 5:17). 3. Cada día de pago, separa una cantidad para Dios y así ayudes a otros (Proverbios 3:9-10). 4. Visita a alguien que esté en el hospital para Dios (Mat. 25:36). 5. Alegra el corazón de las viudas para Dios (Job 29:13). 6. Si sabes de alguien que está pasando un momento difícil, no gana lo suficiente, y sus hijos no tienen ropa o un lugar donde dormir. ¡Ayúdalos! (Santiago 2:15-18). 7. Paga tus cuentas. Has todo lo posible por no deberle nada a nadie (Romanos 13:8). 8. Mantente contento con lo que tienes (Hebreos 13:5; Fil. 4:11). 9. No cobres interés a tu prójimo (Sal. 15:5; Ex. 22:25). 10. Préstale a los que están en necesidad (Lucas 6:35). 11. No des lo santo a los cerdos (Mat. 7:6). 12. No tengas rencores, malos sentimientos, o albergues un espíritu de amargura (Heb.12:15). 13. Dale a los que estén en necesidad (Luc.6:38; 2Cor.9:6; Luc.3:10-11). 14. Perdona todo, lo que hagan contra ti (Mat.18:22; Efesios 4:32). 15. Dale animo a las personas mayores (Santiago 1:27). 16. No te olvides de tus padres o de tus parientes más cercanos cuando envejezcan (Efesios 6:2-3). 17. No uses malas palabras, vulgaridades o digas groserías. No uses el nombre de Dios en vano (Ex. 20:7; Santiago 3:8; Efesios 5:3-6; Mat. 12:36-37). 18. Usa le expresión “Si Dios Quiere” (Santiago 4:13-15). 19. Todo lo que hagas, hazlo en el nombré del Jesús Cristo (Col.3:17). 20. Invita a comer al pobre, discapacitado y al anciano (Lucas 14:13). 21. Comparte tu dinero, tu ropa, tu casa, tu carro, tu tiempo y tus recursos con otros (1Tim. 6:17-18). 22. Ofrece tu hogar, a los que necesiten un lugar donde quedarse. ¡Hazlo para Dios! (Mat. 25:35). 23. Glorifica a Dios con buenas obras (Mat.5:16). 24. Has tus oraciones en secreto. No uses oraciones repetidas; oraciones muy largas y oraciones memorizadas (Mat.6:5-7). 25. Cuando des algo, hazlo en secreto (Mat.6:3-4). 26. Enseña a tus hijos los caminos de Dios (Prov.22:6). 27. Ama a tu esposo o esposa, demuéstrales cariño diariamente (Col.3:14). 28. Mantén tu cuerpo, casa, patio, carro, y tus ropas limpias para Dios. Dios quiere ver qué hacemos con lo que Él nos da. El cuidar nuestras posesiones y el compartirlas con los demás, es como Él nos bendice con más (Mal.3:10; 2Cor.9:10-12). 29. Hazle el bien a tus enemigos (Mat.5:44). 30. Ora a Dios y pídele por tus necesidades (1Juan 3:22). 7 Principios para el Éxito El éxito en la vida es conocer a Jesús Cristo. Éxito es, el conocer los caminos de Dios. Tenemos éxito en la vida cuando perseveramos haciendo lo correcto para gloria de Dios. Éxito es, el permanecer en Cristo. Éxito en la vida es el entrar al reino de Dios que está en nosotros (Lucas 17:21, Versión Reina Valera). Estos principios para el éxito son las llaves para riquezas, honra y vida eterna (Romanos 2:7). La mente del hombre no puede concebir lo que Dios tiene planeado para los que El ama. Dios no quitara el bien a las personas que lo glorifiquen en el cielo haciendo buenas obras día con día en la tierra (Salmos 84:11; Mateo 5:16). Los justos son recompensados de acuerdo con sus obras de amor, hechas en el nombre de Jesús (Col. 3:17). La Biblia nos dice que si arrojamos nuestro pan a las aguas; después un tiempo regresarían nosotros (Eclesiastés 11:1). Si por cada buena obra que hagamos en servicio a otros, para gloria de Dios – esperando nada a cambio recibiremos una recompensa mucha más grande que la hemos hecho (Efes. 6:8; 2Cor. 9:10). ¿Es imposible dar más que lo que Dios da? Las personas más preciadas son la que sirven a otros. Son muy apreciados por los demás, así como lo son para Dios. Bienaventurado es aquel que piensa el desamparado, en el pobre y el necesitado. El Señor no solo lo protegerá de sus enemigos, El Señor lo salvará de su enfermedad. Él lo restaurara de sus enfermedades (Salmos 41:1-3). El Señor dará Su Espíritu a todo aquel que comience a obedecer lo que Él Dice, y vuelva a los caminos de Dios (Prov. 1:23). La Biblia se mantiene un libro cerrado para aquellos que rehúsan obedecerle (2Cor. 4:3 -4). Sirviendo a los demás es el estar arrepentido y es como empiezas obedecer a Jesús Cristo; nuestro ejemplo a seguir. El no vino para que le sirvieran-sino para servir (Marcos 10:45). Él dijo, el que quiera ser mayor de los demás tendrá que ser sirviente de los demás (Mateo 20:26-28; Filipenses 2:2-5; Lucas 9:48; Mateo 23:11; Marcos 9:35; 10:43,44; 1Cor. 10:24). En verdad; estas palabras son los principios para el éxito en esta vida y la venidera. Jesús Cristo – nuestro Señor y Amo - vino para enseñarnos a como ser sirvientes de los demás, para que así podamos ser exitosos en todo para gloria de Dios. ¿Recuerda, si los justos con dificultad se salvan, que pasara con los que no obedecen el evangelio de Jesús Cristo (1Pedro 4:18)? Porque sin la santidad, que el resultado de practicar rectitud y justicia; nadie vera al Señor (Hebreos 12:14). 8 Una Vida Sin Temor Cuando tú complaces al Señor, El té protege de tus enemigos, y los hará estar en paz contigo (2Samuel 22:18; Salmos 18:3, 17; Proverbios 16:7) Jesús dijo que no temieras al Hombre o lo que él pudiera hacer contigo. Sin embargo, temerle a Dios. El cual tiene el poder de destruir el cuerpo y el alma (Mateo 10:28). ¡Si, Dios pude destruir el alma del Hombre! Cuando tú obedeces a Dios, al seguir sus sagrados caminos, así como Él los hace, tú estás haciendo su voluntad en la tierra de igual manera que es hecha en el cielo (Mateo 6:10). Cuando tú obedeces a Dios, inmediatamente eres elegible para recibir todos los beneficios, que vienen después de servir al Creador de los cielos y la tierra. Él te protegerá del hambre (de una gran escasez de alimento) y de la guerra. De la violencia y del ladrón (Job 5:20-27; Salmos 10:5; 91:7; 34:7; 33:19; Prov. 3:25-26). Él te dará una larga vida y unos hijos saludables. El Señor te protegerá de cualquier mal y enfermedad, si tu mantienes sus caminos (Salmos 12:7; 91:3; 103:3). Tú haces esto al practicar justicia y honestidad en todos tus asuntos con la gente, así como hizo Abram (Gen. 18:19). Dios te protegerá si aprendes y practicas lo que a Él le complace, y si enseñas los caminos del Señor a tus hijos (Efes. 5:10; 6:4; Col. 3:20). Dios te ha dicho en Su palabra lo que es bueno, y como demostrarle amor (Miqueas 6:8; Zac.7:9-10; Mat.25:33-40; Prov.8:17). El buscar a Dios, es haciendo el bien para El (Sal.14:1-3; 1Ped 3:11). Haciendo lo bueno para El, es el servirle a Él. Tú complaces a tu Padre celestial de la misma manera que complaces a tu padre terrenal – haciendo todo lo posible para obedecerlo y complacerlo. Solo mantente ocupado sirviendo a otros con bondad y caridad. Tus cumples los mandamientos de Dios y la ley real cuando practicas rectitud y justicia hacia tu prójimo, para complacer a Dios (2 Juan 6; 1 Juan 3:7; Santiago 2:8). La ley no fue hecha para los justos, sino para los pecadores, porque los justos ya están cumpliendo con estos principios (1Tim. 1:8-10). Cuando practicas la justicia cada día, al no jurar, mentir y decir palabras ofensivas, estás viviendo conforme a la Ley (Col. 3:8-9; Prov. 8:13). Estas usando tu cuerpo como instrumento para la justicia (Rom.6:12-13, 19). Tu destruyes las obras de la carne al hacer el bien para de Dios, y así no llevas acabó los deseos de la carne (Rom.8:12-13; Gal.5:16, 19-21). Así, ya no estas bajo la ley sino bajo la gracia (Gal.5:18; Rom.6:14). Así, y solo así, tendrás una vida libre de temor y culpabilidad – una vida llena de la paz de Dios, la cual sobrepasa cualquier entendimiento (Filip.4:7). Estudios de la biblia en español. Siempre recuerda el comprobar todas las cosas en la palabra de Dios – como los bereanos hacían. Ellos recibieron las Escrituras con gran entusiasmo y examinaban las Escrituras diariamente, para comprobar si estas cosas eran así (Hechos 17:11).

PREPARING FOR BAPTISM The following is a list of things to go over in preparation for baptism. We recommend going through all the articles carefully on the Baptism page first, make sure to look up all the Scriptures given. Then we recommend you use the references below as another step towards your decision. Do one a day; take time to ponder these things, pray about them and study them in your Bible. Some may take more than a day, that’s okay too. Don’t rush it. After that, is a list of questions you can ask yourself, with links to resources for the answers.

It is a simple act in the Bible of making a commitment to God, along with being dipped or immersed in water. All the examples in the Bible show people being fully immersed in water for baptism, therefore this would be preferred. Full immersion is the act of new birth. It is the act of showing Him you are ready to leave your old way of life behind and live His Way going forward in your life. Just remember, once you put your hand to the plow…you don’t want to turn back. Definition of Baptism: The word baptizo in Greek, translated baptize in the New Testaments, means to dip or immerse. Acts 8:36-38; As they went along the road they came to some water; and the eunuch *said, “Look! Water! What prevents me from being baptized?” And he ordered that the chariot stop; and they both went down into the water, Philip as well as the eunuch, and he baptized him. Luke 9:62; But Jesus said to him, “No one, after putting his hand to the plow and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.” Are you being called? Is God choosing you for this way of life?
