Search the scriptures



Search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and they are they which testify of Me. John 5:39
It is striking that those who knew the Scriptures the best, the Pharisees, were the very ones who looked Jesus in the face and missed God completely. The veil on their hearts, which could only be taken away by turning to Christ, had blinded them.
Paul goes on to tell Timothy in 2 Timothy 3:15:
and that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
There is benefit in knowing the Scriptures. They are not salvation in themselves but are able to make you wise unto salvation. Jesus is salvation and it is the revelation of Christ in the Scriptures that is needed. I like to say it like this:
Read where it is alive, pray where it is alive, worship where it is alive. When you read a Scripture, the life that reaches and quickens you is the Christ you experience. The Scriptures paint the picture in your heart, but the Person is the presence and expression.

A graveyard mentality

A GRAVE YARD MENTALITY; Exodus-14-11 And they said unto Moses, because there are no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? Wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to carry us forth out of Egypt? One of the only reasons church goers go to, or stay in certain churches, is that there is where all their family is buried, and that they want to have a grave yard to be buried in. The children of Israel were no DIFFERENT, than a lot of believers of our day, they were more concerned with where they were going to be buried, than they were with deliverance, and a full life in the land of MILK AND HONEY, THE PROMISE LAND WAS NOT ENGRAINED IN THEIR THINKING, THEY HAD DYING AND BEING BURIED IN THE GRAVEYARD ON THEIR MINDS. After Jesus arose, some of the disciples came to the tomb, to the graveyard, after seeing the stone rolled away and a empty tomb, they were asking where have you laid him, so we can come and take him, The Angel messengers said, WHY SEEK YE THE LIVING A...

The face of Jesus is revealed.

THE FACE OF JESUS IS REVEALED IN A PEOPLE; Ephesians-2-8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God: We are saved by faith in the Gift of God, which is the work of Jesus Christ. Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. We put our faith in the work of Jesus, and not in our self. When you hear the word preached with clarity and with Revelation, then you can believe it and it will bring you into a higher position of maturity. The maturity of the believer is measured by how much we know about the redemptive work of Jesus Christ, and our union with him. We must come to knowing, then we allow what we know to bring us into THE UNITY OF THE SPIRIT, AND INTO THE UNITY OF THE FAITH; Where the body of Christ becomes one joined to God, as their Faith begins to work as one Faith, even the FAITH OF THE SON OF GOD; ONE SPIRIT, ONE FAITH, WORKING FROM ONE BODY, THE BODY OF CHRIST, RECEIVING DIRECTION FROM THE HEAD, FROM THE THRONE OF GOD...
