LEGALIZE!

I must declare the following, the COMMENTARY being offered are quotes taken from Matthew Henry’s (1662-1714) book of Commentary.

OBSERVATIONS Are the researched commentary and findings of Robert, a humble servant to Yeshua as his  Watchman!

SPIRITUAL FOUNDATION!

James 1:12
[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

OBSERVATION!

Afflictions, allowed by God, are designed to draw out our graces, but not our corruptions. That is our task as the origin of evil and temptation is in our own hearts.

As a newborn spirit a babe in Christ, we must stop the beginnings of sin in our hearts by seeking the renewing of our minds (transition from a mature carnal individual to a new spirit, a baby keen on learning) or having all the evils that follow will be rightfully charged against us.

God has no pleasure in the death of men, as he has no hand in their sin; but both sin and misery are owing to themselves.

We should not pray so much for the removal of affliction, as for wisdom to make the right use of it, use  these afflictions to deepen our faith and trust in our hearts as dedicated servants and properly prepared soldiers separated from the world  its sins and immorality. Earning a crown of life to lay at our Lord’s feet on the treat day of judgment.

COMMENTARY!

It is not every man who suffers. That’s blessed; but those who, with patience and constancy, continue through all difficulties as their way of duty.

Afflictions will not make us miserable if the affliction is not our own fault. The tried Christian shall be a crowned one. The crown of life is promised to all who have the love of God reigning in their hearts.

The commands of God and the dealings of his providence try men’s hearts and show the dispositions that prevail in them. As nothing sinful in the heart or conduct can be ascribed to God. Who is not the author of the dross, though his fiery trials expose it.

Those who lay the blame of sin, either upon their constitution, or upon their condition in the world, or pretend they cannot keep from sinning, wrong God as if he were the author of sin.

OBSERVATION!

Afflictions, as sent by God, are designed to draw out our graces, but not our corruptions. The origin of evil and temptation is in our own hearts.

Stop the beginnings of sin, or all the evils that follow will be wholly charged upon us. God has no pleasure in the death of men, as he has no hand in their sin; but both sin and misery are owing to themselves.

If this be, that Yahewa’s love, is so great for us, what then must we do for Yahewa?

OUR DUTY!

Be frequent in prayer, and abound in holy duties; and live no more to yourselves, but live to Christ. As Christ died for us. It is here that we find the beginning of the shaping and molding of his front-line warriors’ hearts, the sharpening of their double-edged swords, and the inpouring of courage, determination and perseverance into their hearts of all his children.

A soul that has single and prevailing regard to its spiritual and eternal interest, and keeps steady in its purposes for God, will grow wiser and stronger in faith and trust, by afflictions, it will continue fervent in devotion, and rise above trials and oppositions.

With a heart as such, is it possible that we could desire to continue to abide in sin? NO; it shows that we would have died to sin and live no more for ourselves, but are fully dedicated as Yeshua’s warriors ready for the Frontline.

OBSERVATION!

Many are not taught or aware why we all are to be prepared as our Lord’s soldiers ready to advance to the frontline and deploy this the greatest weapon there is against evil.

In preparation to advance as Yeshua’s obedient servants properly prepared soldiers equipped with one of Yeshua’s most feared weapons supported by their double-edged swords and fervent prayer.

I am revealing what the Holy Spirit brought forward as a sound and powerful weapon. And every servant of Yeshua possesses it. As a group, we must be ready to use it.

What we have as an effective weapon is the gospel, which brings Yeshua’s light with it; in that light the day, dawns. In John the Baptist, it began to break and increased fervently to the perfect day.

The gospel is discovering; it shows that we were ignorant of or in the dark abou the light within it and that  lights powers; we find it will provide light to those that sit in darkness, offering the light of knowledge about the glory of God in the sacrificing of Jesus Christ his Son as the final sacrifice and only doorway to freedom and eternal life with Yahewa our Heavenly Father.

It is reviving; it brings light to those that sit in the shadow of death, as condemned prisoners in the dungeon.

It is directing; it guides our feet in the way of peace, into that way which will bring us to peace at last, Romans 3:17.

The light of the gospel reveals this truth by which I will close this warning. Sin is very hurtful to the sinner himself, and therefore ought to be hateful; but it is not so.

It is no marvel, if those that deceive themselves, seek to deceive all mankind; to whom will they be true, who are false to their own souls? It is bad to do mischief, but it is worse to devise it, to do it with plot and management.

If we willingly banish holy meditations in our solitary hours, Satan will soon occupy our minds with sinful imaginations. Hardened sinners stand to what they have done, as though they could justify it before God himself.

Daniel 10:13 KJV
But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.

Robert a humble obedient servant to Yeshua and his Father in heaven Yahewa. And all of God’s children say Amen and Amen.
