My Blood Covenant! by E. Davenport December 11, 2011

John 3:16 

King James Version (KJV)

 

16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

 

Jesus came to this earth, lived his life and performed miracles, signs and wonders backed by God….every action was an act of love.   The ultimate act was the action at the cross!  He shed his blood for me and you!   Yet, a lot of people don’t believe it.  In almost every case it’s because  whether they can admit ot or not…they couldn’t see themselves doing such a thing.  They can’t imagine there is that much love in the world.  I tell you…they don’t know what LOVe is!!

 

Jesus shed his blood for me….and I’m in covenant with Him.  I am committed to Him like He is committed to me! 

I’m tired of seeing all of the young people sold out for Jesus; while all of the older people have either grown lukewarm or afraid to publicly admit their passion for Him!

 

I’ve got a Blood Covenant and I am assured of eternal life!!!!!   Now, that’s something to SHOUT about!!!!!

 

HALLELUJAH!!!  HALLELUJAH!!!!  HALLELUJAH!!!!  LET IT RAIN!!!!

 

 

Lev.17:11 It is the blood that maketh atonement for the soul
Heb.9:22 Without shedding of blood is no remission [of sin]
Mat.26:28 My blood…shed for the remission of sins
1Jn.1:7 The blood of Jesus Christ cleanseth us from all sin
Jn.1:29 The Lamb of God, which taketh away sin of the world
Eph.1:7 We have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins (See also 1Jn.2:12)
1Pet.1:18,19 Ye were redeemed…with the precious blood of Christ

The Promises Of The Blood Of Jesus Are Infinite! November, 2011

These are just a couple :

For though we walk (live) in the flesh, we are not carrying on our warfare according to the flesh and using mere human weapons. For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds.
2 Corinthians 10: 3-4

 

“Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.” —1st Peter 1:18,19

PSALM 91

 

1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

3Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

4He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

5Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

6Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

7A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

8Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

9Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

10There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

11For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

12They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

13Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

14Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

15He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

16With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

 

A True ” Who Dunit ?” by Gene McGuire August, 2011

A True ” Who Dunit ?” by Gene McGuire August, 2011

 ”Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.” (Galations 5:1)

COMMENT: A couple of days ago, as I read an article about a pastor in Florida, my heart sunk. 42 year old  Rev. Zachery Tims, Jr., the leader of an 8,000-member ministry was discovered dead in a Times Square hotel room in New York. Police found a glassine envelope with a white powdery substance inside the right pocket of his shorts. The detectives found no signs of robbery or trauma to his body. Tims was a young drug addict in Maryland when he was “miraculously saved” according to his website and a memoir published in 2006. He earned degrees in accounting and theology and worked at a ministry in Baltimore. In 1996, he and his wife Riva moved to Orlando, where they founded the New Destiny Christian Center. My heart goes out to the Pastor’s family and also to his congregation. Unfortunately, there will be some of those 8,000 members who will turn away from the Faith because of this incident. I am especially touched because I have seen this situation replicated many times through my association with ex-offenders. The devil is always working hard to get us back into his evil clutches after the Lord has given us deliverance.  Of course you are aware that we are not just talking about drugs; our enemy is continually working to have his way with us regardless as to what the transgression is.

   Over the weekend I would like to give you my opinion as to what we Christians can do in order to combat the evil one in his quest to corral us.

The Blood Of Jesus Separates Us From Other Faiths July 31, 2011

The Blood Of Jesus Separates Us From Other Faiths July 31, 2011

Editor’s Note:  This article is not being written for diplomacy sake; but it is inspired by conversations this radical Christian has had with Muslims about their faith.  I’m not seeking common ground…I do not hate…but unlike many other Christians who often for popularity sake will compromise their faith…I will not! 

Let’s be clear that I firmly believe in the preservation of the Jewish state.  I believe the bible.

It always bothered me…”the very idea” that Allah and Jehovah could be the same.  I wondered why if Jehovah  God sent Jesus…why several hundred years later He(JEHOVAH GOD)  would have to send Mohammed?   Now, if the work at the cross WAS ENOUGH (and it was) …why would my God send someone else?    For what purpose?    THAT WOULD NOT MAKE SENSE!  

__________________________________________________________________________________________

Now, all of a sudden the Muslims believe in Jesus…*that’s a recruiting tool)  ; most are slow to say  :  “we believe he’s a prophet.”  (as if that is acceptable…IT IS AN AFFRONT!

_________________________________________________________________________________________

Many of my Christian friends objected to my attending a large Muslim rally.  They I think were afraid that I might be recruited; but Jehovah God had a different plan!

It ignited a fire in me!  I saw how real the problem was; how deep the deception ran!  My closest family member became a born again Christian in that very meeting  (the Muslims didn’t know it.)  A radical more dangerous than the one who walked in…departed that meeting….me!

As the speaker blasted out mistruths and  misrepresentations from the bible:  I shouted:  “That’s not true!   That’s not what it says…my family was surprised they didn’t throw me out. 

Nobody cared.

Next time…I promise a PICKET LINE!!!!

I often wonder how anyone can say:  “We all believe in the same God.”   If Allah and Jehovah were the same God; He would have a split personality.  Do you actually think One God would trick two different groups  of believers into disliking each other?   For example, why would the God of the Jews and Christians be the SAME God as the God of the Muslims who hate openly the Jews and “in secret”  disrespect or look down on the Christians?  

I know for a fact that Jehovah and Allah are not the same.  It’s about time somebody says so.  It’s been a long running secret kept from the Muslims.  You see, many converts could not handle it to know that they have abandoned God because of unforgiveness for what Christians…also known as humans who are not blemish free; have done in the past!   Shame on them…but would it be enough for me to leave God?   NO WAY!!!!

  While we’re many of us “work at:  practicing love ;  many of them…study us, engage in an activity called  “phising” (not certain of the  spelling) ; a way to recruit us by pointing out *their version of Christian flaws.  and  hope to overthrow Christianity.   That ain’t never gonna happen! 


Hey nobody’s perfect …that’s why we need God. 

Now let me compliment the Muslims;  I like the discipline, I like the healthy lifestyles that I have observed, I like the commitment to prayer.  Is it enough to convert me?  NO WAY!  My “other list” is far too long. 

Somebody is being deceived and so my prayer is for full revelation to be made known.

It is such a STRONG LIE by the enemy; that people get furious when anyone says it.  Most radical Christians know that our God Jehovah is not Allah.  It’s amazing to me that Muslims have been fed this lie.  Now, I will not talk about Allah…but I will say that Jehovah wrote the bible.  He inspired holy men of God to write it.  The Muslims often try to discount the bible by saying “King James” wrote it …which is hilarious because any  fifth grader can tell you that King James did something remarkable.  He hired the most well known scholars of his time to research the bible in Greek and Hebrew to put in the most accurate translations since there were more than one translation of the bible at that time and men had not translated it correctly because they would not translate all of it from Hebrew and Greek because of the extensive work involved.

A Muslim woman recently told me that Jesus, Father God and the Holy Spirit cannot all be God.  She obviously had been taught this and obviously had never read the bible herself.

She told me:  “How can you get 3 into 1?”  I laughed because 3 can go into 1…in math and of course…in the bible which is real life for me.

I challenge any Muslim to research the bible for yourself. 

When Jesus got up on the cross; he shed his blood for the remission of our sins.   That blood has so much power even today.  Jesus lives and the Blood lives;  it heals those who believe  in it,  delivers,  it protects , it brings peace and as the Blood delivers…our faith increases.

Born again Christians realize that there is a demonic realm and that faith in the Blood of Jesus protects us from it.   Spirit filled believers speak in the heavenly languages also known as tongues.  Theses languages are not gibberish an for some the languages change to bring forth unbelievers. 


When we respect and honor the Blood…God honors us.  I heard that from Dr. Creflo Dollar…I totally agree.

We are spirit filled believers filled with the spirit of God.  The bible says God is a Spirit.  It says that we must worship God in spirit and in truth. 

NOW HEAR THIS:

If Muslims were able to do this; it would be the same God. 

The bible has been written in a mystery; and no Muslim unless converted in their hearts will ever understand it because God will not reveal it to them,  Once He does…they will no longer be a Muslim.

To become born again…one must accept Jesus as Lord and Master of their life…it can’t be done if you believe the lie that he was merely a prophet.

___________________________________________________________________________________

It’s not important for  this writer to single out other faiths; because they are less in conflict with Christianity; and I also believe that salvation for Muslims is critical; I along with many others will not tolerate it in the spirit…and so I pray .

P.S. If you are a Muslim reading this…and you got this far…search for the truth…I did!   I found it!

I Love My Shepherd! by Gene McGuire June, 2011

I Love My Shepherd! by Gene McGuire June, 2011
“The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want.” (Psalm 23:1)
 
COMMENT: Throughout the New Testament we Christians are referred to as sheep and I think there is validity to that designation because sheep are rather dumb animals and they need a lot of direction. I don’t know about you, but I often do some very dumb things. Sometimes a shepherd has to take drastic steps when he finds a wayward lamb – one that won’t stay close to the flock – thus running the risk of getting lost or being killed by a predator. He will often break one of the lamb’s legs and carry him on his shoulders until the leg heals. While the healing proceeds, the lamb’s affection for the shepherd grows and grows. When he is able to walk again, he never strays too far away from his beloved shepherd. Hard times can come because we disobey God or hard time come because that’s what they do . . .come! We should examine ourselves to determine which it is. I believe that Hebrews 12:6 verifies the premise we’ve put forth today: “For the Lord corrects and disciplines everyone He loves, and He punishes, even scourges, every son whom He accepts and welcomes to His heart and cherishes.”
