WELCOME TO BARAH MINISTRIES
Therefore, I (Peter) will always be ready to remind you of these things (the instructions for the New Self Life that are in the Word of God), even though you already know them, and have been established in the truth (of the Word of God) which is present (resident) with you.
And I (Peter) will also be diligent (so) that at any time after my departure you will be able to call these things (from the Word of God) to mind.
TODAY’S STUDY
Unconditional Love is the Reason the Creator Creature Conflict is Allowed
But now faith, hope, love, abide (in the sphere of) these three; but the greatest of these is (unconditional) love.
For those whom He (God the Father) foreknew (all believers in Christ in eternity past), He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son…
“For God (the Father) so (much) loved the world (all mankind), that He gave His only begotten (uniquely born) Son (the Lord Jesus Christ), that who(so)ever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.”
For they (the fallen angels and unbelievers) exchanged the truth of God for a (Satanic) lie, and worshiped and served the creature (Satan) rather than the Creator (the Lord Jesus Christ), who is blessed forever. Amen.
“In the beginning (not a beginning) was the Word (God the Son), and the Word (God the Son) was with God (the Father), and the Word (God the Son) was God (the same in essence as God the Father).
Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I (the Lord Jesus Christ) am (existed).”
This (God-)Man (the Lord Jesus Christ), (was) delivered over by the predetermined plan and foreknowledge of God (the Father), (and) you nailed (Him) to a cross by the hands of godless men and put Him to death.
For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE LORD (so well), THAT HE WILL (be qualified to) INSTRUCT HIM (no one!)? But we (believers in Christ) have the mind of Christ (the Bible).
But know this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of one’s own (private) interpretation, for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men moved (carried along) by the Holy Spirit spoke from (the exact thinking of THE) God (the Lord Jesus Christ).
“There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven.”
In the beginning (which was not a beginning THE) God (Jehovah Elohim…God the Son) created the heavens and the earth.
When the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God (beniha Elohim…the angelic creatures) shouted for joy…
a
The Rock! (All of) His work is perfect…
Thus says the Lord God, “You had the seal of perfection, Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.”
“You were the anointed cherub (the Lord’s angel) who covers (a bodyguard), and I (the Lord) placed you there. You were on the holy mountain of God (in the third heaven); you walked in the midst of the stones of fire (you had access to the throne room of heaven.”
“You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created until unrighteousness (sin) was found in you.”
“But you (Satan) said in your heart, ‘I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God, and I will sit on the mount of assembly in the recesses of the north.//I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.’”
a
“By the abundance of your trade (rekullah…the trafficking of slander) You (Satan) were internally filled with violence, and you sinned…”
…as it is written, “THERE IS NONE (NO CREATURE WHO IS) RIGHTEOUS, NOT EVEN ONE…
For our struggle is not against flesh (sin natures) and blood (souls), but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
BREAK
Be Glorified
When I Think About Home
a
(But)…the earth was (became) formless and void…
b
Therefore I (the Lord) have cast you (Satan) as profane from the mountain of God (the third heaven).
For thus says the Lord, “The whole land shall be a desolation (formless and void), Yet I will not execute a complete destruction.”
The Lord’s lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail.//They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.
b
…and darkness was over the surface of the deep…
“Then He (the Lord Jesus Christ) will also say to those on His left (Satan and the fallen angels), ‘Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels…’”
c
…and the (Holy) Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters.
“BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD AND SHALL BEAR A SON (the Lord Jesus Christ), AND THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL,” which translated means, “GOD WITH US.”
Therefore when (the Lord) Jesus (Christ) had received the sour wine, He said, “It (salvation) is finished!”
…and He Himself (the Lord Jesus Christ) is the propitiation (the ONLY perfectly satisfactory payment in the eyes of God the Father) for our sins; and not for ours (as believers in Christ) only, but also for those of the whole world (unbelievers as well).
JOSHUA 24:15a
“If it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living…”
JOSHUA 24:15b
“…but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
For if (1) one (a false teacher) comes and preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached (a false Jesus, and they do)…
“He who believes in the Son (the Lord Jesus Christ) has eternal life (the resurrection life); but he who does not obey the (command to believe in the) Son will not see (eternal) life, but the wrath of God (the Lake of Fire) abides on him.”
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.//For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.
For they sow the wind and they reap the whirlwind (a tornado).
“What do you think about the Christ (the Messiah)?”
And if (1) anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life (and some names are not found), he was thrown into the lake of fire.
When He (God the Father) had disarmed the rulers and authorities, He made a public display of them, having triumphed over them through Him (the Lord Jesus Christ).
“For David himself says in the book of Psalms, ‘THE LORD SAID TO MY LORD, SIT AT MY RIGHT HAND,//UNTIL I MAKE YOUR ENEMIES A FOOTSTOOL FOR YOUR FEET.’”
…God (the Father) highly exalted Him (the Lord Jesus Christ), and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name…
…so that at the name of Jesus EVERY KNEE WILL BOW, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth…
…and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
