Are We Worthy?
Are we worthy of GOD's Grace?
Are we worthy of GOD's Salvation?
Are we worthy of GOD's Holy Spirit?
Are we worthy of GOD's Eternal Living Life?
Are we worthy of the Kingdom of GOD?
There are many verses in the Authorized King James Bible that tell us we must be worthy of these things!
2 Thessalonians 1:11
Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of
this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:
2 Timothy 3:16-17
ALL scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof,
for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
Many on earth believe they are Good and Worthy enough to go to Heaven after they physically die. Many believe they follow God's Good by simply believing in God, and that does make them Worthy to live in Heaven with God, Whom is so Good, that He is Pure and Holy.
Many even believe that when the Lord Jesus Christ does return to earth to Rapture the Church of Worthy individuals, that they also will be taken, because they do simply believe in Jesus Christ, and that does make them Good and Worthy.
When in actuality, most of those individuals:
• Lack Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack an undertstanding of Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack sighting of Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack undertaking of Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack truly following of the Pure and Holy Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
This lack of Pure and Holy Good does make individuals unworthy to ever be in the presence of our Pure and Holy God!• Lack an undertstanding of Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack sighting of Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack undertaking of Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack truly following of the Pure and Holy Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
I have found that many individuals believe they have rights to God's Gifts and Rewards, because they simply believe in Jesus Christ, or on His Name.
Have they done anything to prove to God they are Worthy enough to obtain the Good and Righteous things of God?
Colossians 1:10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
Jeremiah 5:25 Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.
Jeremiah 5:25 Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.
Individuals can claim to believe in Jesus Christ, and/or call on the Name of Jesus Christ all they want, but if they are not clothed in the correct garment of Good and Righteousness, that is also Jesus Christ, they will not be identified by Him (Bridegroom), nor will He bless them with His Righteous Good Gifts and Rewards, because they are NOT worthy of those things that belong to God which are Good, Pure and Holy!
This goes for any individual upon this wayward planet that seeks eternal living life from God.
Job 29:14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.
Isaiah 59:17 For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.
Isaiah 59:17 For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.
Ephesians 6:14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
Matthew 25:12 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
Matthew 22:2-14 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage. But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many are called, but few are chosen.
Luke 13:24-25 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able. When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:
Luke 13:25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:
Matthew 7:22-23 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

The devils believe, and tremble for what they can lose! Fallen Angels have no concept emotionally, or otherwise of death, because they were created to be eternal beings.
James 2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
Many believe Jesus Christ is the Lord God, as well as believe in the miracles He performed, and believe they have Eternal Life through His Name, yet they ignore that Jesus had distinctly used the words "might have life through his name". He knew that there would be many that would believe on Him, and seek to lay claim to their having the Promise of Eternal Life as Sons of God by simply seeking to believe on His Name, and believe that they do not have to do anything, such as prove that they are worthy in calling Him Lord Jesus Christ. Many also believe they cannot, or do not have to overcome the sins of the world to enter into heaven, that He showed was possible.
In believing that they do not have to overcome sin, nor need to repent from all sin which they committed after being saved, then they would be ignoring the gate of repentance. Which is the strait gate, that leads them to being saved, and also keeps them upon the road to the Kingdom of Heaven, to which many will seek to enter into Heaven, yet shall not be able to, because they have distorted their belief upon that Name of Jesus Christ!
John 20:31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.
Matthew 22:8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
Matthew 22:8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Luke 13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
Luke 13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
Individuals upon this wayward planet have no fear of God, or fear of what they may lose! Everything of God is taken for granted and expected, because of what they want to believe, follow, or have been taught!
Psalms 55:19 God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
Ecclesiastes 3:14I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
Romans 3:18There is no fear of God before their eyes.
Hebrews 10:31It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
Ecclesiastes 3:14I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
Romans 3:18There is no fear of God before their eyes.
Hebrews 10:31It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
God doesn't give His Forgiveness, Salvation, Grace, and Eternal Existence to just anyone. If He did, it would make of Him a hypocrite, because those individuals in Hell have already been judged, suffering, and are waiting upon final judgment (second death), and so have the Fallen Angels been judged, and waiting upon their final judgment.
Gifts and Rewards of God are earned on earth, and in Heaven.
The first reward earned, or NOT earned upon physical death, is the crown of life, but many forget or ignore this fact. If an individual does not prove to God they are Worthy of the crown of life, the only reward they will receive is the second death.
James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
The Lord hath promised the crown of life to them THAT LOVE HIM!!!How do we prove to God that we are Worthy of His love, and that we do love Him, and His Righteous, Holy, and Pure Good?
Galatians 6:1-4 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
2 Corinthians 8:8 I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.
2 Corinthians 13:5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
For this is the love of and for God...Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
2 Corinthians 8:8 I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.

1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
John 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
John 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
Jude 1:21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
How do we obtain the Good and Righteous things of God for eternal living life?
Scriptures say we must be found Worthy in Good and Righteousness to obtain the things of God that are Pure, Holy, Good and Righteous.
The Good and Righteousness of God that was Physically displayed through/by Jesus Christ, and not man's own ideas of good and righteousness!
Matthew 10:38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.
Matthew 22:8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
Luke 20:35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:
Luke 21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
Ephesians 4:1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,

1 Thessalonians 2:12 That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.
2 Thessalonians 1:5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:
2 Thessalonians 1:11 Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:

Revelation 16:6 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.
God did provide the tools to measure our worthiness. God's Law of Good and Righteousness, the Ten Commandments, is the tool given to overcome sin! It is our measuring stick for Righteous Good, that is found in Jesus Christ! Fact is, if you keep the Ten Commandments, you will not sin a sin unto death. Matthew 22:8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
Luke 20:35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:

1 John 5:16 If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
God continually voiced to His Chosen People, to keep His commandments, but they were mislead by their religious leaders to continually sacrifice themselves for the forgiveness of their own sins, rather than the high priest sacrificing for the People yearly, as God commanded.
Exodus 30:10 And Aaron shall make an atonement upon the horns of it once in a year with the blood of the sin offering of atonements: once in the year shall he make atonement upon it throughout your generations: it is most holy unto the LORD.

Leviticus 16:15 Then shall he kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the vail, and do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat:
Leviticus 16:24 And he shall wash his flesh with water in the holy place, and put on his garments, and come forth, and offer his burnt offering, and the burnt offering of the people, and make an atonement for himself, and for the people.
Continual sacrifice caused their sins to be remembered, because continual sacrifice requires continual sin, so many sacrificed for the same sin over and over again.Leviticus 16:34 And this shall be an everlasting statute unto you, to make an atonement for the children of Israel for all their sins once a year. And he did as the LORD commanded Moses.
Leviticus 9:7 And Moses said unto Aaron, Go unto the altar, and offer thy sin offering, and thy burnt offering, and make an atonement for thyself, and for the people: and offer the offering of the people, and make an atonement for them; as the LORD commanded.

Leviticus 16:24 And he shall wash his flesh with water in the holy place, and put on his garments, and come forth, and offer his burnt offering, and the burnt offering of the people, and make an atonement for himself, and for the people.
Their continual sacrifice saved no one. Salvation belongeth unto the LORD (Psalms 3:8)!

Good and Righteousness is the only Way that does save, which Jesus Christ did Physically display being God's Good and Righteousness in the Flesh!
1 Corinthians 1:30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Because the Chosen People were being mislead by their religious leaders concerning the Ten Commandments, God found no intercessor, so God Himself came down from Heaven to teach and show man (Jews & Gentiles) what it takes to become a son of God, being a Son of God Himself. Our Example to follow to Heaven.
Jeremiah 4:22 For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.

1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
God did make for Himself a Physical body (Jesus Christ) to Visit mankind of earth:
• To Fulfill the Promise He made to Abraham to bless all the families of earth with the knowledge of God.
• To Physically Prove He is a Living and Powerful GOD that can do anything, unlike the dead lifeless god and gods that Satan and wayward man have fabricated.
• To Physically show His Love, His Good, His Redemption, His Salvation, and the Resurrection.
• To Physically lay down His life so man can Physically see there is life-after-death with His Resurrection.
• To Physically display and fulfill all righteousness, to be our Example to follow in Good and Righteousness.
• To Physically teach and show man they can be fashioned after His likeness, if they truly walk in the Good and Righteousness that He did Physically display and fulfill.

God did put an end to the animal sacrificing by becoming the Ultimate Sacrifice Himself, being Jesus Christ!
Daniel 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Ezekiel 39:17 And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.
The Jewish religious leaders commanded of the People death of innocent animals for forgivness of sin. Ezekiel 39:17 And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.
The LORD desired of the Chosen People:
• To have the knowledge of God that does overcome sin, to become sons of God.
• To stop sinning.
• To have mercy on the poor animals with their continual sins that required continual sacrifice by their religious leaders.
• To stop sinning.

603 judgments were put upon the People for the things they were already doing to break the Ten Commandments. Hebrews 10:3-4 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year. For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.
Exodus 21:1 Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them.
Christians are not under these 603 sacrificial laws of sin and death.
Romans 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
God did not come down from Heaven, being Jesus Christ, just to die as many believe or have been taught.

John 1:10-12 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
Individuals must receive and believe what He taught and Physically displayed, to know Him!
1 John 2:6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
God is the Power of Pure and Holy Good, that is Righteous!
The very same Good and Righteousness that is found in the Ten Commandments, because they were written for man's own good by God's Holy and Righteous Finger, which makes them Holy, Good, and Just!
Romans 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
Jesus Christ is the Physical Power of Pure and Holy Good that is Righteous, because He is God in the Flesh!
John 10:30 I and my Father are one.
Christians today are also being mislead by their religious leaders and members, to believe the Ten Commandments are of little importance, not for the Gentiles, and/or impossible to be kept. They ignore the fact that God wrote them with His Holy Finger, which makes them Holy, and had them placed (preserved) in the Ark of the Covenant for a reason.
God doesn't do things to not have a reason or purpose for doing it.
The Ten Commandments are very important for a successful outcome. It is the duty of ALL mankind to keep them, if they truly seek God's Kingdom of Good and Righteousness.
Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
Scriptures teach to "keep ourselves" pure and undefiled. Many are taught and mislead by the Churches and its members that they can do nothing themselves, but scriptures say otherwise.

1 Peter 1:19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
1 John 3:5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
It is the same Righteous Good within us that does cleanse the Spirit and Soul from all unrighteousness. The same Good and Righteousness that was Physically displayed and Is Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 1:19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
1 John 3:5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.

Yes, we must do it, as scripture above states! We will then obtain a new heart and spirit! A heart and Spirit of Righteous Good that we were initially created in, being created in His Image!
Colossians 3:10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
Ezekiel 11:19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:
Ezekiel 18:31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
Ezekiel 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
We are told in scriptures that we must put away the old man of unrighteousness and put on the new man of righteousness, being created in His Image! God doesn't have a magic wand that He waves over individuals, and they magically become righteous, even though some actually believe this. We must prove we are a changed creature, reflecting and representing God and His Good Righteousness in all we do and say! Ezekiel 11:19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:
Ezekiel 18:31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
Ezekiel 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
Again, the scriptures teach we must put on the new man, God doesn't do it!
Ephesians 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Colossians 3:10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
Romans 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
Colossians 3:10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
Romans 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
All individuals upon the planet can become Divine Sons of God, if they walk and live in God's Good that is Righteous now and forevermore, as Jesus did teach and Physical display, being our Example of what it takes to become a Son of God, being a Son of God Himself.
John 15:10 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.
1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
1 John 2:6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
Be of good cheer, you too can overcome the world's sin, if you do as He did. Truly following Him, in His steps, doesn't mean you can pick and choose what steps to follow.1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
1 John 2:6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
We have been given the Knowledge of God that is Jesus Christ. The Knowledge of God (God's Righteous Good) gives us the Power to become Sons of God, if we truly utilize the Knowledge of God, to overcome the world!
1 John 3:2-3 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
1 Corinthians 15:34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
Colossians 1:10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
Proverbs 2:1-5 My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee; So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding; Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding; If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures; Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.
John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
1 Corinthians 15:34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
Colossians 1:10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
Proverbs 2:1-5 My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee; So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding; Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding; If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures; Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.
Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
Jesus said, "I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?" (Luke 12:49)Jesus came to send knowledge (fire) on the earth; and what will He, if it be already not heard (kindled).
The knowledge of God is upon the earth. All we have to do is believe and receive it in heart, soul and mind!
Jesus Himself said...
Mark 10:17-19 And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God. Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.
Yet individuals continually choose to reject God's Law of Good and Righteousness that does overcome sin, the Ten Commandments!
Romans 3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
We are to establish the Law of Good and Righteousness in our hearts, soul and minds! Our very being should be in one accord with the law. We are not to ignore it, or say it can't be done, we are to adhere to the law for our own good!
Deuteronomy 10:13 To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
Deuteronomy 11:28 And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.
When we learn to keep God's Law of Good and Righteousness, the Ten Commandments, they become written/engraved in our hearts, a natural part of our being! The law (Ten Commandments) cannot become written in your heart, if it is rejected and/or not kept!
Romans 2:12-15 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
Romans 7:22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
Romans 7:22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
2 Corinthians 4:16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
Romans 7:25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
Galatians 6:1-2 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
Galatians 6:1-2 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
We should want to keep God's Set Standard of Good and Righteousness, the Ten Commandments:
• To obey God.
He commands it. God knows what works to be successful!
• To overcome sin.
The Power of Good does destroy all evils and sin!
• To prove we are worthy of the things of God!
• To prove we love God and His Good!
We are to keep His Commandments for our own Good, to prove our worthiness unto God, so we may continue to live!He commands it. God knows what works to be successful!
• To overcome sin.
The Power of Good does destroy all evils and sin!
• To prove we are worthy of the things of God!
• To prove we love God and His Good!

Isaiah 62:10 Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard for the people.
Jeremiah 4:6 Set up the standard toward Zion: retire, stay not: for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction.
Deuteronomy 10:13 To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
1 Kings 3:14 And if thou wilt walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as thy father David did walk, then I will lengthen thy days.
Proverbs 4:4 He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.
Proverbs 7:2 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.
Proverbs 6:23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:
1 Kings 3:14 And if thou wilt walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as thy father David did walk, then I will lengthen thy days.
Proverbs 4:4 He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.
Proverbs 7:2 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.
Proverbs 6:23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:
It is not impossible to keep Ten simple Commandments! If you believe it is impossible to keep the Ten Commandments, then you need to ask yourself why you believe such, and/or why you can't keep them.
Many upon the planet do keep and live-by the Ten Commandments fully and completely, Jews and Christians alike! God doesn't give man anything they cannot do or handle, to believe otherwise, then one doesn't truly know God, nor His Good and Righteousness that is Jesus Christ, nor are they truly follow Him in the Good and Righteousness of Heaven!
Luke 18:20 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.
Romans 13:9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Romans 13:9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Can we make mistakes, fall short and miss the mark? Certainly! We are to Repent, seek God's Forgiveness, and get back on track!
But keep in mind, continual mistakes are no longer mistakes! God knows if a contrite heart is present in seeking His forgiveness!
Don't allow your excuses or false learning to be the reason for not obtaining the things of God, especially the Crown of Life for Eternal Living Life!
Would you want to spend eternity with someone that cannot keep Ten simple Commandments of Good and Righteousness?
What do you think would happen to GOD's Heaven if such individuals were allowed into His Heaven of Good & Righteousness?
GOD Forbid!!!
