wholewheatonline.com Search The Overlooked Message of Salvation It is true that we all need forgiveness from God. We all need to accept Jesus Christ as our personal Savior. We all need to believe in Jesus Christ. We all are in need of God’s grace and forgiveness. We all need to pray, as it were, the sinners prayer, and we all need to be covered by the blood of Jesus for the forgiveness of sins. But the most important requirement in the process of salvation is being completely overlooked and forgotten. We all need to repent. We not only need to repent, but we desperately need to know how to repent. God, Himself, commands us to repent and be saved from this evil generation. “Repent or you will all likewise perish” (Luke 13:3). The Bible sternly warns, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” (Matt. 3:2; 4:17; 10:7). There is quite a difference between the repentance of 2,000 years ago and today. When people repented in Jesus Christ’s day, the way they lived changed 180 degrees. The most permanent thing about the lives of the early believers was change. And change they did. They all became zealous doers of God’s word (Titus 2:14; James 1:22)! How did they become doers of God’s word? How was their faith so different from thousands who profess Jesus Christ today? Their faith had works. It was not a dead faith. It was alive! Wherever true followers of Jesus Christ happened to be, they were zealous for good works (1 Peter 3:13; Titus 2:7). They did not do their works for the reason of salvation, which they all knew was a gift of God and could never be earned. Their good works were done for repentance as a result of being given the gift of salvation by God. To those who have ears to hear, listen (Mark 4:23)! Repentance must result in a life of good works or it is not repentance! A person can say, “I repent, I repent, I repent,” all day long, but if that person’s life does not change or continually display a life of doing good, then repentance is dead all by itself. Not only that, but that person’s faith is dead also, for God’s word says faith without works is most certainly dead (James 2:14-26). Those whose faith is void of works are not practicing repentance and as a result, there can be no spiritual fruit on their trees and no spiritual growth in their daily lives before God. God must cause the growth but true believers must imitate God by keeping His Ways daily (1 Cor. 3:7; Eph. 5:1). In order for God to cause the growth, we must do the repenting. We all know that Jesus Christ lived to glorify the Father by the Way He lived daily. We also know He glorified the Father by good works, not bad works. Jesus commanded His true disciples to glorify the Father in heaven by good works and to let their lights shine by being examples of good deeds (Matt. 5:16; Titus 2:7). All those who profess to know Jesus Christ and remain worthless for good works not only deny Jesus Christ in their daily lives, but continue to live detestable and disobedient lives before God (Titus 1:16). They remain unrepentant. God is angry and upset with thousands of people who profess His name but do not live His life daily by imitating Jesus Christ, His son. Why is He upset? Because these people are not coming out of sin by engaging in a life of righteousness, and as a result, they remain unrepentant. How many who profess the name of Jesus Christ today are living like the true sheep of the Shepherd, Jesus Christ, as described in Matthew 25:33-40? How many are doing these works of righteousness, whether they be in words or deeds, in the name of Jesus Christ for the glory of the Father, as we are commanded to do in Scripture (Col. 3:17)? Do you know that you have to force yourself to do good because doing what is evil comes quite naturally? Yes, you must force or press your way into the kingdom of God that is within you (Luke 16:16; 17:21). Did you know that every time you force yourself to do good for God you resist evil and build godly character? Did you know this is how you discipline your body according to godliness (1 Tim. 4:7)? Did you know this is the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness (Titus 1:1)? The word of God says if anyone comes to you with any other message than the doctrine that conforms you to godliness and the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ, that person is conceited and understands nothing (1 Tim. 6:3). If anyone does not abide in the teaching of Jesus Christ and the doctrine that transforms you into a godly, holy, upright and beautiful person, you are not to receive him into your house or give him a greeting (2 John 9-10). Today, Jesus warns us not to be religiously misled, for many will come preaching in the name of Jesus saying, “Jesus is the Christ, I am He,” signaling that the end of the age is at hand (Mark 13:6). Jesus said, “Don’t go after them” (Luke 21:8; Matt. 24:4). Who are these men? They love to have others look up to them as being righteous and come to them for salvation. However, they do not produce righteous, guilt-free people for God. Like the Pharisees of old, they love to have the adoration of men instead of God. Many become very popular with men but very unpopular with God. That person who is esteemed or well-liked by men is detestable in the sight of God (Is. 2:22; Matt. 5:20; Luke 6:26). Jesus said the world would love its own. What did He mean? The world loves ministers who produce hearers of the word and not doers (Jer. 5:30-31; Ezek. 33:30-32). People love to be told you cannot earn salvation by good works because it is a gift, but they hate to hear that you cannot repent unless you are careful to engage in good works and learn to do good for God (Titus 3:8, 14). True believers are to be provoked, stimulated and to admonish one another to more love and good works (Heb. 10:24). These are not good works to be published in a church bulletin, but works to be done on a personal, daily basis in secret, not to be broadcast to others (Matt. 6:1). This is how you build a one-to-one relationship with Jesus Christ. Someone might ask, “How can I help needy people? I don’t know of any.” Ask Jesus Christ to give you the eyes of a servant and His attitude of being a servant to others, and then be ready to serve! Ask Him to send you the needy, the hungry and the lonely so you can begin to put your discipleship into practice and build some godly good fruit on your tree (Col. 1:10). Good works done daily for God is how you bear much fruit and prove to be a disciple of Jesus Christ (John 15:8). Be like those true believers found in the book of Romans who, by perseverance in doing good, seek for glory, honor and eternal life (Rom. 2:7). If you do not engage in a life of doing good, your life will never be blessed by God (Acts 3:26). It is God who renders blessings to men according to their deeds or works of righteousness (Rom. 2:6; Matt. 16:27). Remember always, the one who does good is of God (3 John 11, 1 John 3:10). True believers are justified doers of the word (James 1:22; James 2:21-24; Rom. 2:13). They obey Jesus Christ and are sprinkled by His blood (1 Peter 1:2). Their sins are forgiven, while those who profess Jesus Christ and remain worthless for doing good deny Jesus Christ because they remain unrepentant (Titus 1:16). True believers are not to live for self any longer but for Jesus Christ only (2 Cor. 5:15; 1 Cor. 10:24). We live for Jesus Christ by dying to sin and living to righteousness (Gal. 5:24). This should be obvious when we read Scriptures like, “But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary of doing good” (2 Thess. 3:13). Those who do not do good for God are going the wrong way. It should be even more obvious that if the Lord is furious when one of His followers becomes lukewarm in regard to doing good, that we should not be lukewarm in our commitment to doing good for God (Rev. 3:15)! God says He will vomit out those who are lukewarm (Rev. 3:16). Scriptures are often quoted out of context. We hear, “For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is a gift of God; not a result of works, that no one should boast” (Eph. 2:8-9). But isn’t it time we read the next verse, which makes the message balanced? We are created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them (Eph. 2:10)! That means we are to live a life of doing good works for God’s glory (Matt. 5:16). What’s wrong with doing that? Another set of Scriptures that is quoted out of context is Titus 3:5-7. “He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by His grace we would be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.” These few Scriptures do not do away with a life of good works. The very next verse admonishes us to be careful to engage in good works (Titus 3:8). Jesus Christ is purifying for Himself a people for His own possession who are zealous and on fire or hot for good works, and have purified themselves through the power of God’s Holy Spirit by doing so (Titus 2:7). There are millions out there who profess Jesus Christ with their mouths but their lives deny Him daily (Titus 1:16)! Don’t feel bad, there’s absolutely no need to feel guilty when you can start to do good right now and repent. Just set your mind to please God each day in all you think, do and say. Then study God’s word each day to show God you mean it. Obey the Scriptures that say we should go out and do good. If you have not heard this message before, it is because you were listening to man and not to God. When you repent by doing good works and by studying God’s word daily, if there’s something you do not understand, ask God. He is not deaf to someone who wants to serve Him by doing His Will of good works on earth as it is being done in heaven (Matt. 6:10). Remember, study your Bible and stop reading it. You can read the Bible for a lifetime and never know it unless you study it. The very next step is putting it into practice by doing good daily as Jesus Christ gave us example to do. Can you begin to realize that if you didn’t live to please God each day by imitating the Way Jesus Christ gave us example to live, then Jesus Christ lived His life in vain as far as your spiritual life is concerned (1 Cor. 11:1; 1 John 2:6)? Don’t you think you’re going to have to force yourself to do good and to do what is right for God in thought, word and deed until it comes from your heart? The Apostle Paul had to do this very same thing (1 Cor. 9:27). We have been bought with a price. Therefore, we are to glorify God in our bodies by engaging in lives of doing good for God. Jesus’ only purpose in life was to do good each day for the glory of His Father. This must be every true believer’s attitude in life until the return of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ says He will allow those who overcome and endure to the end by doing His works—which He gave you example to do—to sit with Him (Rev. 3:21). Jesus emphatically says that many of His true followers will do greater works then He did (John 14:12). Do you believe Him? The prophets of old were sent by God every time the false ministers made crooked the straight Ways of the Lord. The ministers became full of deceit and fraud, and as a result, became sons of the devil, like the Pharisees of the New Testament (Acts 13:10). They were constantly making crooked the straight Ways of the Lord by perverting God’s simple, eternal message. That message was, “Overcome evil by doing good so you will abide forever” (Psalm 37:27; Rom. 12:21). One of the reasons God sent John the Baptist as a prophet was to teach God’s Ways of repentance, and straighten out the message, which the Pharisees had perverted (Mark 1:3). People hate to be told they have to repent by doing good. In the past, they hated that message so much that they killed many of the prophets God sent, and they will kill more in the future. The message was repeated over and over by the prophets of old (Is. 1:16-20). Their message was called the ancient paths where the good way is (Jer. 6:16). Did not our fathers have plenty to eat and drink when they practiced righteousness and honesty one to another? That’s when everything went well for them. They took care of those who were needy and afflicted and constantly did good in His sight. Isn’t this what it means to know the Lord (Jer. 22:15-16)? “Why do you call Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and do not the things which I say?” (Luke 6:46-47). Hosea had a novel way of saying the same message of righteousness. Study Hosea 10:12-13 and Zephaniah 2:3 which say the same message of righteousness. Under the Law of Moses, the Israelites were required not only to practice righteousness by continually doing good for God, but they were also required to keep the entire Law, including holy days, animal sacrifices and many other ordinances (Gal. 5:1-4; Col. 2:16-17). We, under the New Testament, are freed from the works of the Law of Moses by engaging only in works of righteousness for God (Rom. 5:20-21). Pure religion is to help others in need and by doing so, to keep ourselves unstained by the world. We can keep ourselves from worldliness, which is sin, by serving others in need and by continually doing good for the glory of God. This is the truth! You know it is the truth, therefore you are required to live it (Ezek. 3:17-21; 33:7-8, 13-16, 31-33) 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 What is the Lord's Work? The expression "the Lord’s work" is often used in religious circles. For example, people say, "We must get behind the Lord’s work." Jesus said, "My food [or My purpose] is to do the Will of Him who sent Me, and to accomplish His work" (John 4:34). By this we can see that doing the Will of God is the Lord’s work. In John 6:28-29, the people wanted to know how to work the works of God. Jesus said, "This is the work of God, that you believe [obey] Me." Believe means obey in John 3:36 (NASB). You must keep Jesus’ words to be His disciples (John 8:31, 51). Anyone who teaches differently is a false teacher (1 Tim. 6:3-4). Jesus said that He did not seek His own will (interest) but the Father’s Will only (John 5:30). Jesus said that if we did not observe Him doing the Father’s work or Will, we should not believe Him (John 10:37). "Check My fruits," He said (Matt. 7:15-16, 20). If He did His works to please the Father daily, healing the sick, feeding the hungry and constantly helping those in need, we should believe Him just because we see the works (Matt. 8:15; 11:5; 15:30-38). His fruits or works prove the Father’s Spirit was in Him (John 10:38). We must keep Christ’s sayings by keeping Christ’s works (John 12:47; Matt. 3:10). Jesus said we would do greater works than He did (John 14:12). Keeping Christ’s works is how we overcome the flesh and live to the Spirit (Rom. 8:13; Rev. 2:26). When we are servants of others, we are doing the Lord’s work (Matt. 23:11). We glorify God daily by doing our good works in the name of His Son, Jesus Christ (Matt. 5:16; Col. 3:17). These works perfect the faith of Jesus Christ in our bodies (James 2:22). Jesus lives in us when we live our lives to please Him. "By their fruits [works] you will know them" (Matt. 7:16, 20-21; Col. 1:10). It is as simple as that. The whole truth concerning the Lord’s work is simply not known by many today. The Lord’s work is the good works we do for God. Yes, it is also supporting this work and helping disseminate God’s truth to others. The true message of the kingdom will be preached and published to all nations, and then the end will come (Luke 8:3; Matt. 24:14).

wholewheatonline.com Search How to Be Good The words of a familiar song say, “He knows when you’ve been sleeping, he knows when you’re awake, he knows when you’ve been bad or good, so be good for goodness sake.” Why not be good for God’s sake? Yes, we are constantly telling our children to be good, but why? Good things happen to good people. The word of God says: “If the righteous are rewarded in the earth, how much more the wicked and the sinner!” (Prov. 11:31). Psalm 125:4 says: “Do good, oh Lord, to those who are good. Yes, God wants children to be good. He tells little children not to let anyone deceive them, and that the one who practices righteousness is righteous, even as God is righteous (1 John 3:7). He also tells the little children not to love with the words of their mouths only, but with good deeds. By this, they will know they are of the truth and be sure in their hearts that they are God’s friends (1 John 3:18-19). God wants little children to live as Jesus Christ gave them example to live, so that when He returns, they will have confidence and not shrink away in shame. God’s word tells you how to abide in Him. It says: “If you know that Jesus Christ is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness [daily] is born of Him” (1 John 2:28-29). You must, however, do all that you do in word or deed in the name of Jesus Christ, as happy slaves of Jesus Christ (Col. 3:17). Righteousness is doing God’s Will from the heart (Eph. 6:6). You know that you love the children of God (others) when you love God and practice or do His commandments; and they are not hard to keep (1 John 5:2-3). You keep them daily by continually doing things that are pleasing in God’s sight (1 John 3:22). If you are to walk with God, then you must walk in His commandments, just as you have heard from the beginning that you should walk in them (2 John 6). You walk in His commandments by practicing righteousness—by being careful to engage in good deeds (Titus 3:8). This is something you’re going to have to learn to do (Titus 3:14). But realize this: whatever good you do, this you will receive back from the Lord (Eph. 6:8). When all you sow is righteousness, all you’ll reap is blessings, for God is not unjust so as to forget your work and the love which you have shown toward His name (Gal. 6:7; Heb. 6:10).

wholewheatonline.com Search Avoiding Evil vs. Overcoming Evil Are you trying to be a good person? Are you trying not to drink too much, swear, smoke or overeat? Are you trying to stop thinking filthy thoughts? Is there some other bad habit you are trying to control? Do you ever catch yourself doing something good to cover up something bad you just did? Do you give to this or that fund from time to time so you can say that you are not all bad? Do you have some good days and some bad days, but things are looking down more than they are looking up for you? Well, maybe you are going about it the wrong way. Maybe you are going at it your way instead of God’s Way. The Bible says our natures prevent us from doing the very thing we want to do (Rom. 7:15). For example, when we try to stop smoking, that is when we tend to smoke more. When we try to control our own nature by going on a diet, we might struggle to lose 20 pounds, but then our nature runs amuck and we gain back 28 pounds! You cannot overcome evil by avoiding evil. You might be able to subdue it for a while, but evil will eventually win in most cases. You must overcome evil by doing good for God daily (Rom. 12:21; Psalm 37:27). You must make sure that you are not doing your good to be noticed by others. Instead, you must do all that you do in secret, and in the name of Jesus Christ, for the glory of the Father (Matt. 6:1; Col. 3:17). Then what happens? God begins to allow you to be tested (1 Cor. 3:13; 1 Peter 1:6-7). But you must continue doing good for God. Instead of thinking about the evil you want to do, get busy doing something good for God. Get involved in the process of replacing the bad things in your life with good things, for the purpose of repentance (Acts 26:20). Soon you will begin to notice that in your weakness, God’s strength is made strong (2 Cor. 12:9). You are becoming rich in good works (Titus 2:12; 3:8; 1 Tim. 6:18). The problem falls away as though it never had been a problem. Continue being zealous in doing good for God every day. Continue in the godly process of overcoming your nature until Christ has been formed in you and you are a new creature (Titus 2:14; 1 Peter 2:1-5, 12; 3:10-11; Gal. 4:19; 6:15). You will be made complete and perfect by God the Father, the same as Jesus Christ, our example, was made perfect (Heb. 5:8-9). When you do good works for the Father, you are doing the Father’s works and not your own (John 14:10-12; Rom. 8:12-14; Col. 3:5-13). This is how you do God’s Will. Then you are overcoming evil instead of avoiding evil and soon you will be a new creation of God (Gal. 6:15).

wholewheatonline.com Search The Benefits of Repentance God has promised many good things to those who repent and live to please Him every day in all they think, do, and say (2 Chron. 16:9). There are many ways we can please God in our daily lives. We please God when we hold no ill-will toward our fellow man (1 Cor. 13:5). God commands us never to pay back evil for evil but do good to those who mistreat us (Prov. 20:22; Luke 6:35; Matt. 5:44). Never argue with anyone since that, too, is a form of paying back evil for evil (Titus 2:9; 1 Tim. 6:4). Living a charitable life, serving others in need and just showing love to everyone at all times, is living a repentant life before God (1 Cor. 13:2; Matt. 25:33-40). God blesses us tremendously when we truly repent. If you repent, God will: • Forgive your sins (Acts 2:38). • Answer your prayers (1 John 3:22; James 1:6). • Heal your diseases (Matt. 4:23). • Make sure you have food and clothes (1 Tim. 6:8). • Protect you from harm and protect your possessions (Prov. 12:21). • Protect you in war (Job 5:20). • Feed you in times of famine (Prov. 10:3). • Give you eternal life (Gal. 6:8). • Reward you double for all you do for Him on earth in Jesus Christ’s name (Zech. 9:12). • Repay your enemies (Heb. 10:30). • Bless you in all that you put your hand to do (Gen. 17:6). • Be your friend (John 15:14). • Perfect you in all your ways (1 Peter 5:10). • Allow you to live longer (Prov. 10:27; 2 Kings 20:5-6). • Resurrect you when He returns and give you a glorified body (1 Cor. 15:52). • Bring you a suitable mate (Gen. 24:7, 12-19). • Bless your children (Prov. 14:26; Is. 44:3). • Give you the desires of your heart (Psalm 37:4). • Give you abundance (Luke 6:38; Mal. 3:10). • Promote you in your career and give you power to get wealth (Eccl. 5:19). • Protect you when you stumble (1 Pet. 1:4-6). • Make your enemies be at peace with you (Prov. 16:7). • Make a way where there is no way (Mark 10:27). The list could go on and on. The more zealous we become in serving God, the more He blesses us. Yes, He will test our motives for doing good to make sure we are not doing good for selfish reasons (Matt. 6:1). Our repentance must come from our hearts and when it does, the blessings come pouring down from the Father above (Mal. 3:10; Luke 6:38)! God’s Ways of repentance are truly easy and pleasant (Matt. 11:30).❑ 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 What is Freedom? To Satan, freedom is doing what you want. How many wars have been fought for freedom? How many people in the past have died for freedom? With all the wars that have been fought for freedom, does the world enjoy peace? What does God’s word say about freedom and wars? James 4:1-4 talks about this; ‘What is the source of quarrels and conflicts among you? Is not the source your pleasures [your self-interest] that wages war inside your body? You lust [covet] and do not have; so you commit murder. You are envious and cannot obtain [have your own way] so you fight and quarrel. Even when you pray to God for things, you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your own pleasures [because you want what you want for self]. You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? [When you continue to live selfish, inward lives, you are continuing to live like the world lives]. Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend to the world makes himself an enemy of God.’ [This, then, is the same as committing adultery against God.] Nations fight and kill each other for the same reasons—sin and human nature. Jesus was sent to this world to show man how to escape from this human nature, which has kept him enslaved by the devil. Man is being held captive by Satan to do his will (2 Tim. 2:26). Jesus said to seek the truth and you will be set free from your present nature which is evil, compared to God’s nature which is righteous and pure. Seek the truth [God’s word] and it will set you free from all religious error which grips the world. Seek the truth and it will set you free from Satan who has deceived the whole world (John 8:32; Rev. 12:9). By daily study of God’s word by subject, you not only can prove that God exists but also that He rewards those who diligently seek Him (Heb. 11:6). You will find God’s word to be a true history of man and that the world is full of pagan, godless lies, which are being taught to your children in schools and colleges. For example, your children are being taught that writing, and the writing of books, did not occur until a recent date and as a result, books were not available to people long ago. However, in Halley’s Bible Handbook, page 51, an article is written called: “Libraries in Abraham’s Day and Schools in Abraham’s Day.” We all know that Enoch wrote several books in his day, and he lived seven generations after Adam and Eve. That book of Enoch is still available today! Man’s thoughts are being controlled today; and he is being fed rubbish. 1 Corinthians 3:19 says that the knowledge of this world is foolishness to God. It is of the earth and is demonic (James 3:15). True knowledge comes from God above. When you obey God, He not only gives you true knowledge but also wisdom for the asking. Freedom comes from keeping laws—God’s laws. When you keep God’s laws, He protects you from harm, feeds you in times of famine, protects you from disease, blesses everything you put your hand to do, gives you a long life filled with joy, peace, prosperity and eternal life (Psalm 91:1-16; Deut. 30:15; Psalm 25:13; 37:11)! You keep God’s laws in the Spirit by continually doing good. Freedom comes from knowing the truth. Freedom comes from practicing the truth. Freedom comes from getting rid of your old evil nature and having Christ’s new nature (which He has waiting for you) formed in you (Gal. 4:19; 2 Peter 1:4). He who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law. You love others and fulfill that law when you only live to do good to others and serve and help them whenever you have the opportunity. Being a servant of others is imitating Jesus Christ (1 Cor. 11:1; Rom. 15:2-3). Halley’s Bible Handbook also describes how Jesus Christ lived and gave us example to live. On page 20, it says: “As a man, He lived the most strangely beautiful life ever known. He was the kindest, tenderest, gentlest, most patient, most sympathetic man that ever lived. He loved people. He hated to see people in trouble. He loved to forgive. He loved to help. He wrought marvelous miracles to feed hungry people. For relieving the suffering He forgot to take food for Himself. Multitudes, weary, pain-ridden, and heart sick, came to Him, and found healing and relief. It is said of Him, and no other (John 21:25), that if all the deeds of kindness He did were written, the world could not contain the books. That is the kind of man Jesus was. That is the kind of Person God is. And, Jesus said that those who would be followers of His would do more deeds of kindness than He did (John 14:12)! It is this precious Way of life that Jesus came to show mankind, which is called the Way of righteousness. This is true freedom. It is also the directions to eternal life (John 12:47-50; Matt. 21:32). Jesus delivered to us the words of the Father, as He was prophesied to do in Deuteronomy 18:15 and 17-19. Anyone who will not obey Jesus’ words will be utterly destroyed from among the people in the future (Acts 3:23). I think Jesus was serious when He said that unless we repent and keep His words, we will perish (Luke 13:3, 5; John 8:51).

Coming Under God's Protection When you please God, He protects you from your enemies and even makes them be at peace with you. Jesus told you not to fear men or what they can do to the body. Instead, you are to fear God, who has the power to kill both the body and the soul. Yes, God can destroy the soul of a man! When you obey God by walking the holy Way He walks, you are doing the Will of God on this earth daily as it is being done in heaven. When you obey God, you become eligible for all the benefits that come from serving the Creator of heaven and earth. God protects you in famine and war, from violence, wild beasts and theft. He gives you long life and healthy children. The Lord will protect you from all evil and sickness if you are keeping His Ways. You do this by practicing righteousness and honesty in all your dealings with man, just as Abraham did. God will protect you if you learn and practice what pleases Him and bring up your children in the Ways of the Lord. When a man’s ways are pleasing to the Lord, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him. Proverbs 16:7 Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Matthew 10:28 The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him, And rescues them. Psalm 34:7 The Lord will protect you from all evil; He will keep your soul. Psalm 121:7 For I have chosen him, so that he may command his children and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord by doing righteousness and justice, so that the Lord may bring upon Abraham what He has spoken about him. Genesis 18:19 Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

The Simple Truth PREV NEXT

wholewheatonline.com Search How to Know You are Complete Disciples of Jesus Christ of the past were striving for completeness by striving to enter the narrow door that Jesus Christ said few would enter. In order to do this, they were constantly disciplining themselves in order to be like God (1 Tim. 4:7). They were daily imitating God (Eph. 5:1). They were being careful to engage in good works for God (Titus 3:8) and Christ (Eph. 2:10), were constantly being told not to get weary in doing good (2 Thess. 3:13). They knew that in due time, God’s time, they would reap blessings and completeness of character if they did not grow weary (Gal. 6:9). Followers of Jesus Christ were crucifying their natures, their evil passions and desires (Gal. 5:24). They were glorifying God in their bodies by living each day for Him, perfecting their faith (1 Cor. 6:20). Each of them will receive a reward from God according to their own labor (1 Cor. 3:8). Paul compared the life of overcoming to sports. He said it is exercising self-control in all things, forcing the body to do what pleases God (1 Cor. 9:24-27). It is doing the Will of God from the heart by becoming a slave to righteousness (Eph. 6:6; Rom. 6:18-19, 13). These are the directions on how to overcome evil by doing good (Rom. 12:21; 6:12; 8:13), and how to serve one another in love (Gal. 5:13). Jesus Christ’s true disciples walk in the spirit so they would not carry out the evil desires of the flesh (Gal. 5:16). They provoke and stimulate others to more love and good deeds (Heb. 10:24; 1 John 4:7). Even when suffering, they continue to do what was right and rejoice because God is busy perfecting and establishing His new nature in them (1 Peter 4:1, 12-13, 16, 18-19; 5:10). What is it like to be complete? You no longer condemn yourself for the things you allow yourself to do. You no longer worry. You are at total peace inside. You only live to do God’s Will each day and you have ceased from doing your will of the flesh. You only live to do good each day to your neighbors, your friends and strangers. You love to serve, love to give, and love to do good. It’s your food now, just to do God’s Will (John 4:34). You are completely new. All old things have passed and everything has become new. To get where you are now, you had to fight the good fight and finish the course. You kept Christ’s works and continue to persevere in them without looking back. You are there. You have arrived! You may not be complete on the outside yet, but you have cleaned the inside of the cup thoroughly (Matt. 23:26). You have allowed God to crush your evil nature and put it under your feet (Rom. 16:20). You have entered spiritual rest, and the inner struggle is gone. You no longer do your own works, but you constantly do the works of God (Heb. 4:10). You continue to perfect the outside of the body as you continue growing on the inside of the body. No wonder the Scripture describes it as, “The peace that is beyond all human comprehension” (Phil. 4:7). Jesus Christ had that peace when He was on the cross. Stephen had that peace when he was being stoned. Dying is nothing, but entering the rest is something, and Jesus said it is very easy and pleasant (Matt. 11:30). You do have to endure to get there (Matt. 10:22; 24:13; 2 Tim. 2:12). You must persevere and strive to get there (Luke 21:19; 13:24). You have to suffer to enter the kingdom of God within you (Luke 17:21; Acts 14:22). You must force your way in by seizing it for yourself (Luke 16:16; Matt. 11:12). If you tell others in the world, they hate you for it because God has chosen you out of the world (John 15:18-19). But be of good courage. As a result, some will see your example, be converted to God and have Christ formed in them too (Titus 2:7; Gal. 4:19). Then they will become complete, will overcome the evil one and be perfected in love, just like you (2 Cor. 13:9, 11; 1 John 2:13-14;1 John 4:18)!

wholewheatonline.com Search Jesus, Our Example Jesus is our example. One of the reasons He came to this earth was to show us and tell us the Way to live. We, as His true disciples, are to walk in the same manner as He walked, which means to live as He lived (1 John 2:6). How, then, did Jesus live? Jesus did not live to please Himself (Rom. 15:3). Instead, He lived to glorify God. Jesus’ purpose was to do God’s Will on earth as it is being done in heaven and to accomplish that which He was prophesied to accomplish in the word of the prophets (John 4:34; Luke 24:44). People asked Jesus how they could do the works of God and He told them they must believe in Him whom God has sent (John 6:28-29). Very few know that the word believe means adhere to the teachings of, put your trust in, take action and live the message of Jesus Christ. Believe also means obey (John 3:36; 11:25-26). Jesus said He was among us as one who serves (Luke 22:27). He instructed His disciples to be servants of all (Mark 9:35). He said, "For he who is least among you, this is the one who is great" (Luke 9:48). Jesus took the form of a servant to show us how to serve one another in love (Phil. 2:7). He was a servant to others for the glory of God (Matt. 5:16). He said His Way is easy and pleasant (Matt. 11:30). So the one who is great in the eyes of God is the one who serves others in love, just as Jesus did (Matt. 20:26-28). Jesus is making disciples who are zealous for good works (Titus 2:14). People who obey Him and worship the Father by practicing good works of love in serving others, are the ones who let their lights shine (Matt. 5:16). They are the righteous ones in God’s eyes because they practice righteousness continually for God (1 John 3:7, 10; 3 John 11). If it is with difficulty that the righteous - those who practice righteousness daily for God - are saved, what will become of the godless people and the sinners - those who will not practice righteousness for God by serving others (1 Peter 4:18; Matt. 25:41-46)?
