1 Timothy 3:14-16 ~ household of God, which is the Church of the Living God

The Lambs of God Love Him. Draw close to Jesus.

1 Timothy 3:14-16

I hope to come to you soon,
but I am writing these instructions to you so that, if I am delayed,
you may know how one ought to behave
in the household of God,
which is the church of the living God,
the pillar and bulwark of the truth.

Without any doubt, the mystery of our religion is great:

He was revealed in flesh,
vindicated in spirit,
seen by angels,
proclaimed among Gentiles,
believed in throughout the world,
taken up in glory

~He was revealed in the flesh

Remember His answered prayer to you. Miracles are very quiet. Faith is internal.

John 1:14
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father,
full of grace and truth.

~vindicated in the spirit

John 1:-17
John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.’” And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.


Life is always Changing. The Pew Reports show amazing new trends for life in the USA this year.


We know when we are saved. We know what we know that we know.  Vindicated in the Spirit of Father God in Jesus. The Holy Spirit living in us.

Jesus returned to life - Triumphant and what He wanted was His Disciples as they truly are. Acts 1 assures us of His Family - together again - with His Disciples. This is the Good Pleasure of  God's Son Triumphant - our Jesus.

 



~seen by angels

Luke 2:8-14

 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."

Almost all of the United States - believes in Angels.  We are aware of His Holy Kingdom. The New Covenant is seen in the polling of Angelic Belief and Prayer.

~proclaimed among Gentiles

Matthew 28:18-20
Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

The Pew Report shows dramatic changes in home structures in the family ages.  The Church going age is now living with the younger generations in their families. The Church has new open door needs to encourage all ages in families to come to God's House.

  

In 2001, The newspapers told us 2/3rd's of the world professed Christ as Lord. The Highest percentage ever. Christianity was on a new high. And then we were told the Muslim births proved to be moving faster than Christian births. But the Pew Report shows the births are  only 4% higher in Muslim births.  We need to be in firm belief of the truth. Fully informed.  Not just fed bad news and told this is the truth. To believe and proclaim Good News.




~believed in throughout the world

83% of the polled people, according to the Pew Report - pray and believe God is interested in their prayer conversations and will answer. We need to encourage faith. Not say something about the poll is incorrect. Find Encouragement. Believe. 2/3rd's of all college graduate marriages will be "until death we do part." Amazing. And not spoken of regularly. Support marriage, families and education. Support the Navy - their marriages are 70% Divorce Rates. They need support.

Babies born in marriage - on the rise. Births Outside of Marriage Decline for Immigrant Women. Long-term growth in total U.S. births driven by the foreign born, who account for 23% of all babies.

For First Time in Modern Era, Living With Parents Edges Out Other Living Arrangements for 18- to 34-Year-Olds. The older generation is not as spurned. This is the youth living with the Church attendance age. Millennials are the United States’ largest living generation. One in three live with a parent. A record number of Americans (nearly 61 million in 2014) were living in multigenerational households. Loans for home purchase are down substantially. Family is on the increase and changing.

As our population is not increasing, Immigrants are driving overall workforce growth in the U.S.


Time for us to learn to be Encouragers. At home. In all our words.


Hebrews 11:6

Without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.

Speak Life. Speak Love. Speak Faith. Speak Hope. Be known as people who believe and encourage because we Love Jesus. Jesus tells us in John 14, 15 and 16 Genesis 1 and 2 - the goodness of God's creation - exists today. Approach speaking with a zeal for Good News. Speak Truth.


Philippians 2
2 So if there is any encouragement in Christ,
any comfort from love,
any participation in the Spirit,
any affection and sympathy,
2 complete my joy by being of the same mind,
having the same love,
being in full accord and of one mind.





Revelation 21:23-26

The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it,

For the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp.

The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it.

On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there.

The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it

Ezekiel 43:2

 I saw the glory of the God of Israel coming from the east.
His voice was like the roar of rushing waters, and the land was radiant with his glory.

~ taken up in glory

Revelation 21:1-4

Then I saw "a new heaven and a new earth," for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.

And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Look! God's dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.

4 'He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death' or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."

Revelation 18:1
After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven. He had great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his splendor.

Revelation 21:25

On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there.

Revelation 21:11

It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal.

Revelation 22:1

Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb

We cannot know Heaven - only glimpses. Yet our Father GOD created Heaven and Earth. Man only lives by His Word and His Word shapes our wonder.

Without any doubt, the mystery of our religion is great:

He was revealed in flesh,
vindicated in spirit,
seen by angels,
proclaimed among Gentiles,
believed in throughout the world,
taken up in glory
