John 3:16-36
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. 19 And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. 20 For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. 21 But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”
John the Baptist Exalts Christ
22 After this Jesus and his disciples went into the Judean countryside, and he remained there with them and was baptizing. 23 John also was baptizing at Aenon near Salim, because water was plentiful there, and people were coming and being baptized 24 (for John had not yet been put in prison).
25 Now a discussion arose between some of John's disciples and a Jew over purification. 26 And they came to John and said to him, “Rabbi, he who was with you across the Jordan, to whom you bore witness—look, he is baptizing, and all are going to him.” 27 John answered, “A person cannot receive even one thing unless it is given him from heaven. 28 You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, ‘I am not the Christ, but I have been sent before him.’ 29 The one who has the bride is the bridegroom. The friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is now complete. 30 He must increase, but I must decrease.”
31 He who comes from above is above all. He who is of the earth belongs to the earth and speaks in an earthly way. He who comes from heaven is above all. 32 He bears witness to what he has seen and heard, yet no one receives his testimony. 33 Whoever receives his testimony sets his seal to this, that God is true. 34 For he whom God has sent utters the words of God, for he gives the Spirit without measure. 35 The Father loves the Son and has given all things into his hand. 36 Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.
The Seal of Isaiah was found recently, it's the first archaeological proof Isaiah lived. And has a thumb print on the seal, which would make sense is Isaiah's. Hezekiah did so well he almost surpassed Solomon. His Seal's are plentiful from Egypt to Assyria.
How Plentiful is the Seal of Jesus Christ?
God wants to Save the World. His Seal is Plentiful.
We Rejoice in the Word of God. We are Sealed in Jesus Christ.
Abba,
We thank You, Your Mercies renew every day. Help us to never decrease and to take the Truth of Your Mercy every day.
We pray for Elliott, who has kept his hair during the stem cell transfer. And has not felt too badly, which is a surprise. We pray for Elliott's continued healing, sealed in the Word of Jesus. Jesus speak the Word as You did for the Centurion. We want to stay in God's Purpose and be sealed in Your Word. Know the Scripture, know the Power of God.
You have kept us through the Storms. We are sheltered by Your Word and You have gathered us as a Chick is Gathered to the mother. Matthew 23:37. Thank You for those we Love. Thank You for Your Love. You are our refuge forever.
Thank You for the people I was blessed to talk with today.
May the Lord God help us to live in Peace, Joy and Love. Seeking the Kingdom of Heaven. Thank You for so many answered prayers and Your Promises. Help us to live and rejoice being sealed in Jesus Christ. Amen.
♔ Lord Jesus Saves! †
