Hebrews 3:14 ~ share in Christ

 




Hebrews 3:14



For we have come to share in Christ, 

if indeed

we hold our original confidence

firm to the end. 







Yesterday, our Post was about least in the Kingdom of God to greatest. 


Vatican rooftop.
Oh, the Places He will go!


Hebrews 12

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses

We tend to want the Holy Spirit to speak to the Light within all of creation, Light of mankind, and let us diligently follow Him, together.  However, when the Lord told us:


Matthew 28:19–20; Mark 16:15; Acts 1:8 

And He said to them,

“Go into all the world and proclaim the Gospel 
to ALL of creation.


And Being Help, Helper, Comfort, Comforter, God of Love, God of encouragement, He wanted to tell us we aren't orphans, 

And Behold, 
I am 
with you always, 
to the end of the age.”



When we say the meek inherit the earth, well, we know, the fullness of the Lord is all of creation,  we are saying:



1 Peter 3:15
 
 Always be ready to give an answer 
to anyone 
who asks you 
about the hope you have. 

Be ready to give the reason for it. But do it gently and with respect.










What does the Lord mean to you?  He has gifted you with unique gifts and talents, for us all.

Have you experienced a warmth in your heart? When you knew, Jesus Christ was part of your heart, your soul.  

When did you discover the Lord was completely earnest, His Heart was open to you? And forgiving? 

When you go to Church, do you feel He has held You in His Pinions? Steadfast Love and Grace. 

How has the Joy found in the Lord, strengthened you? 

When you tussle with the ongoing portions of life, do you feel He is your Friend?  Does His steadfast Love give you the Hope you can pray for what you need? Jesus said God sees Himself as someone who would give a Judgement of Mercy, like a Judge who is Badgered. 

When we know The Lord, we want to see Him more in this life. His Will done on earth as it in Heaven.







Rev Bill Hybels, Sr. Pastor of Willow Creek Community Church wrote a book, "Walk Across the Room." This huge Church is a pulpit and a place where hearts are turned to the Lord. Bill Hybels decided they all should experience speaking of Jesus to all of creation. Equally and together.  

Quickly, it was VASTLY discovered, most people, most of the time, do not want this conversation. Not even with the famous of the pulpit! Not even in their good lives long. Not with a soldier, a priest, a fierce wild beast. No, not the least.  I wouldn't want to do this too. 


Not Stalked. Not for a day. Not 3 years. Not 29 years. God Help us. Amen




Not like the ages past, hundreds of thousands still. Where are the bright, joyous saints we so loved and knew.  We mostly love to do Jesus' will. Even in the Pew Report.  You'd think to have the conversation in Church, Sure. But in school? In Lanes? Are we at Sea? In shops, at tea, for the Saints of God are folk like me, and you, and we intend to be one too. Amen.




But in the Conference of the Design Team, Bill Hybels and Willow Creek decided they wanted this to work.  And Bill Hybels said if they do a movie about this, the young Soccer Team moving mooooving mooooooving down the field away from the Famous Preacher to avoid the conversation would be very entertaining.  It was soccer parents rolling suddenly with the ball and super intentionally radar, eagle eyed on jr soccer.  And the others were not having joy in the assignment as well.  Next they were designing the street corner.  This does not yield great results. Mostly. Like deep arguments on FB.

And they dug further to find. Yes, within the people we Love. And never with anger. And with the Love God has for the people, we exactly are. The DNA God put in. We have our gifts, our flaws and our Love. 

Bill Hybels discovered what Mark was doing, helping Peter have a list of the most important things people wanted to know about Jesus in the 1st Century.  People wonder about the Miracles of Jesus. If you know one, share with those you love, and then let God be the God of Salvation. 

Billy Hybels over the next 2,3 years, found a man he knew Jesus would want in Heaven. And as he walked with him in life and joy, they opened the Gate of Heaven and Salvation was found for an entire family. Good times and terrible times were shared.  The events of life come to us all, and we find that what started out as fun or not fun, sometimes has an enormous part to play in finding the Path of Good and leaving what is evil.  

This is what St. Augustine's mother lived. Love. 










In our youth group, we had the brightest apple on the tree. Not the tree of knowledge. 

Just the American Apple Pie of Apple. Smiling, bright light in his eye. Eager to do the Bible Studies, his parents gave the children the golden opportunities to experience in life.  And school seasons changed, and he messed up with a party and was sent to Christian School.  In our neck of the world, this can be the wealthier kids who have found out how to do what you want, with the appearance of groups having wholesome fun. He had a whole new fun crowd, who invited him to meet their out of school, previous school funnnn time.  

And soon his parents were going out of town. He was really excited to have these 50 kids over, as his parents were far removed from the party. His parents came home very early and found 50 people carrying out their belongings out of the house.  He was super glad to see his parents, come on in! And was surprised to find they thought their belongings were being carried down the sidewalk and out the door forever.  And he let his parents know, they were mistaken.  Wisely, his parents said little to him beyond putting him calmly to have a nice sleep. 

The next morning, he began to realize all of his favorite things were now missing from an empty room.  And he couldn't find the camera to even take pictures of the empty spaces because ... the phone was noticed as missing first.  And the remote to the TV was gone, with the TV. Plural.  His parents noticed it could become a very dull day. But they had a new friend for him.  Oh. Yes, someone to talk about habits in life and priorities and emotions.  His new friend has an office geared to teens. 

When he complained, his new friend, with the teenager geared office, offered to call his 50 friends to come visit again. He was somewhat concerned they would continue to visit. He wisely pointed out, he was without phone, to give the numbers out. 

Friends don't let Friends, they love, go forth into dire straights. 

Are these events exaggerated? No, not in the least.






How does this become part of Walk Across the Room? When this shining young man realized his parents would discuss having all his friends over, he realized, he was responsible. Responsible for his family. Responsible for their safety, even as they went to get pizza for dinner. His safety. Not having an empty, dull life. Sitting until new entertainment could be earned and earned and earned back.  He didn't want to try to afford to pay for more TVs and remotes and cameras.  Nor think about having his friends near the ones he loves. 

Friends don't let Friends, they love, go forth into dire straights. 

Our Apple Shining Friend, never missed Bible Study. Which was one of the reasons he sincerely was brought into Responsibility. 

He said with tears in his eyes, I've learned so much, but when I try to tell all the people I know from both schools, they don't want to hear me.  I had a huge collection of cigarettes stashed away and, now, I don't even want the smell of that.  And I can't even talk one person into sobriety and not even giving up cigarettes. I am a terrible, terrible, terrible advocate.   

Suddenly, most of the older portion of the room, could relate completely.



But when he discussed his revelation of sobriety, one of his own heroes was his much older brother.  The meek inherit the earth, man! Love doesn't let Loved ones, they love, go forth into dire straights. 



We are all glad to know, the rest of the story. Our Apple shining young teenager, went forth. He graduated from college, changed his major a few times, kept going.  And in his early 30s, met a wonderful young woman, who loves the Lord, they got married in white lace and promises, with a kiss of luck, and on His Way.

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

This blog is pretty simple, but for a reason. This blog isn't about agenda or me, it is for the joy and love to found by reading the Scriptures. Ultimately, it is you and the Lord.

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
