Jesus Said To "Abide In Me As I Abide In You!" - Part 1886

"Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus the Christ; who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. these things speak, and exhort and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee." (Titus 2:13-15)

Whatever you do, please don't let this day come upon you unawares. Jesus warned us of the things to come, and that nothing would be hid from those who love Him with all their heart, soul, mind and strength. Therefore, be aware of the signs of the times as described in the scriptures. Why is this important? Because there are many professing to be of the Christian faith, who are not aware of the signs and the times spoke of, concerning these times.

Still, Jesus said that He was the vine and believers were the branches! Let me repeat this message again. Jesus said that He is the Vine and those who believe in Him are the branches.

While Jesus was on earth, He said, "I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in Me that bears not fruit He takes away: and every branch that bears fruit, He purges it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the Word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in Me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abides in Me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit: for without Me ye can do nothing.

If a man abide not in Me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If ye abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. Herein is My Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be My disciples. As the Father hath loved Me, so have I loved you: continue ye in My love.

If ye keep My commandments, ye shall abide in My love; even as I have kept My Father's commandments, and abide in His love. These things have I spoken unto you, that My joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. This is My commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you." (John 15:1-12)

Note herein, that Jesus did not say that a Church is the Vine and that religious denominations are the branches. This is quite simply another demonic lie, emanating from the mother of harlots -- so called church which has its head on this earth. It is only exposed as being demonic in doctrine when one opens the written Word of God which alone is capable of exposing their erroneous error.

Remember, that if the light that is in you is actual darkness, then, how great is that darkness.

Jesus said that He is the true Light, the Bread of life, the living water wherein one will never thirst again, and those that follow Him shall not walk in darkness. Therefore, just because someone asserts that they are Christian does not necessarily mean that they are ... for it is written that if they speak things which are contrary to this Word, it is because the light of the Gospel does not dwell within them.

It is for this reason that the Word encourages believers to study the Word, as doth a workman unto God, so that we can discern what is truth and right and just. It also explains why the Word admonishes us -- as believers to not frequent establishments that lay aside the authoritative Word of God. For in this context, what fellowship has light with darkness? Can two walk together except they are in agreement? Therefore, as instructed in Revelation, we are to come out from among them and be separated in belief to the Word of God and God who is the Word will receive you.

In Luke 11:27-28, we read that a certain woman lifted up her voice and said to Jesus, "Blessed is the womb that bare you and the breasts that you have sucked." Jesus responds by saying, "Yes rather blessed are they that hear the Word of God and keep it." Any blessing pronounced by man or woman on the surrogate mother of Jesus is proven to be wrong by Jesus own response in this instance. Only man places Mary above others, for most definitely Jesus' response did not in any fashion exalt fallen sinful flesh as a prescription for the redemption of fallen humanity.

Jesus said that the real blessed persons (both then and now) are those people who hear the Word of God and keep it. The Word of God is not in harmony with the exaltation of Mary’s sin prone ancestral flesh in which she herself was clothed in -- inasmuch, that all flesh are Adam’s offspring. Those who seek to exalt Mary are now being sternly rebuked by the Word of the Spirit of God which proceeds from the mouth of Jesus.

Jesus said to "Continue in My Word" and then you will be My disciples indeed. All of our deliverance, including, forgiveness of sins, and our healings both spiritual and physical come as a result of our belief upon the Word of God. Deliverance which is quick (living) and powerful and our reception of Jesus Word is able to do exceedingly abundantly more than you or I could ever imagine!

Lord, open the eyes of our hearts so that we can be enabled to worship You and You alone in every single thing we do, in both word or deed. If Mary could rejoice in God her Saviour, so should we do the same. Thus, receive now consolation from the Word and let God’s peace rule and reign within you -- Jesus being your advocate and the one and only mediator between God and man. And yes, He is the exception!

Jesus -- the Author and Finisher of our faith. King of kings and Lord of lords, Alpha and Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the ending. He is indeed our all in all!
