My Lord:
2 Corinthians 10:6, " And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled. " Again. While love is absolutely obedient, it is the obedient part that goes without mention always. It is that part I drive at all times, to be faithfully obedient, for that is the proof of true love. To grow this, to fight for it and do all one can to not become distracted by the cares of the world as so many do. I do not care what the world thinks is so important, I care what is important, Christ crucified and resurrected, the free gift that no man could of done for it took a spotless Lamb. The forgiveness, that moment one is truly forgiven no for repeating some words or some mind change, but when one truly believes from the heart and has that literal moment when one finds Him within, then being set free, purged of dead works and now fully ABLE to obey. If that person will choose to be faithful, not irresistible, yet it is unspeakable. All words fall to the ground that try to express the Truth of Christ revealed within. Yet is can be forsaken, neglected, turned from and this must not be forgotten. All the warning must be kept near, or one can forget that they can neglect the greatest gift of all, Christ. Who was humbled and obedient even unto death. How can one love if they do not know what love is, do not daily dissect it? Dig deep into the Truth of it, if the whole Law is fulfilled by love, then I want to break the word "love" down and search it out, what does it contain, what are the quality's, the proofs? How does one love not in lip service but actually doing what true love does? Every time I break it down it tempers the mortar, adds a brick to the wall, something is grown greater, hedged about, and none of this has to do with sharing the cares of the world, then typing a verse at the end. To exercise a muscle group, one has to work that muscle in the group. Working something else and then doing one service to that muscle at the end is not working it out, but rather distraction from it. How can I revenge if I have not the wisdom, knowledge and understanding? If I am to weak to from lack of exercise. If I can not given answer, what is love? What is faith? What is belief? What is grace? What is hope? If all of this turns out to be one thing, then what is the heart of the one thing? If it is all the same thing, then what is it? If faith works by love, what is the work? If to faith we are to add virtue, what is virtue? By faith, then what is faith? By belief, then what is belief, by hope, then what is hope? By grace, then what is grace? By love, then what is love? Told to seek out of the book of the Lord and read, so then my answers will be found there. Why would I seek out of something else? Why would I share anything else? I was told "tell them about Me", if I speak of other things how am I telling about Him? I was given a testimony by Him, it is not mine, I did not give it me. I have what I need to "tell about Him". I have tools, will I use them, taking the time to exercise them, to go over it and over it and dissect it all? What will I find if I do not the work I was called to? Nothing. What will I find if I do the work called I was called to do? If I will obey from the heart and standfast, holdfast, forget not, exercise it daily, do what is written, what has been said. If I will forget not and fulfill my own obedience, I can do what is written, I can follow as said. This is my job, I do have to work in the world, I do have all the bills and needs all have to survive in the world, but that is that. The work is the ekklesia, the calling, the church, which is the people of God, not a building of mans hands but of His hands. Where two or three are gathered in Truth, there He will also be. No need to go look far off, wisdom is not in a cave or mountain top, where you are, He is. If I understand what Love, faith, belief, hope and grace are, then the thing that I have placed these things, I must know what pleases that which I place my love, faith, belief, hope and the grace given by that which I have love, faith, belief, hope. They love to say it is all about what Jesus did and not what "YOU" do. Nonsense, we are workers "TOGETHER" with Him. Then is surely is about what? WHAT WE DO TOGETHER. Remember the devil spoke the Truth to try and lead Christ astray. So do they that profess to be what they are not. I must work out my own salvation with fear and trembling. I must do what is written, I must deny myself, I must take up my own cross, I must follow Him. I must learn what must be learned, and if I am diligent Christ will teach me, will teach anyone who will come after Him and do what He says must be done. Not the filthy lie of Him doing all for you, or paying it all, when He himself spoke of COUNTING the cost. Which implies there is a cost that is not paid yet. Or Him obeying for you, so one can live contrary to what He has said. How sweet is the lies the many sell, it is the same lie satan always sells, you will not surely die if you do not obey God, but you will live and be gods. One could laugh here if Eve had not eaten of that lie and death came into the world, what is funny about that? So then one must work to tear down the lies, to make sure they have not taken hold of you. To always affirm one is in the true faith and not that faith of lip service. Proving thy love! Fulfilling thy own obedience and revenging all disobedience. Tear it down, slay them all, spare none, be not silent, for it is not a city set upon a hill to be hidden, a candle lit to be unseen. Nothing private about the Truth, it is doing what is right, in the face that refuse what is right, revenge in the way the Lord allows it. What revenge? Then do what is right, what is written, what we have been told and ye shall have it. Matthew 5:14, " Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. " Truly seek out of the book of the Lord... Again, for this even do men forsake. It is not out of any other book, it is out of the book of the Lord. Matthew 5:15, " Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. " Mark 4:21, " And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick? " Luke 8:16, " No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light. " Luke 11:33, " No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light. " Luke 11:36, " If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light. " Luke 15:8, " Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it? " All of these are connected and to them connect, Matthew 25:25, " And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. " You are able to do so, if you are willing to submit thyself unto God. Having in a READINESS, to revenge all disobedience. Ready to give an answer always, a solider that is fighting the good fight always on the field of battle. Mind stayed upon Him, having peace, when one is surrounded upon all sides by the enemy. Behold a sheep amongst wolves and yet worries not, has no care of the world but the wisdom, knowledge and understanding, that the Good Shepherd is faithful to lead one to freedom. Just keep grazing, eating of the Truth and watch, wait patiently upon Him. Have self control, and patiently watch and wait even as you see whom look like sheep but are wolves surrounding you. Stand ye fast, hold ye fast, be not moved. This is the mantra, the call shouted out, hold the line, for you are able to hold it, endure it, bear it till the end, when Christ will come again and the Trump will sound and we will then move Amen. As told, define the Path by definition. Break it all down, search it all out, leave nothing unturned, dissect it, dig deep, do the work and for it you will eat, in fact you will have more than you can eat. You will overflow, thy cup runneth over, for Christ is gracious indeed, the Hosts of hosts Amen. John 2:10, " And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. " Greek - G4102 Word: πίστις Transliteration: pistis Phonetic: pis'-tis Faith is belief and it is faithful, monogamous, fidelity, trusty, true, obedient. Greek - G4102 Word: πίστις Transliteration: pistis Phonetic: pis'-tis Belief is faith and it is faithful. Believe is fidelity, you can not believe truly and not be loyal to that which you believe. Hope is a belief in that what is hoped for can be obtained. Hope is trust and it is faithful. Grace is time to learn, to be taught, to whom ye will yield yourselves servants to obey, sin unto death or obedience unto righteousness. All worthy of death, but by the Grace of God, time given, a Way out given, they who do righteousness are righteous even as He is righteous. Revenge, each day we stand fast and are not moved by temptation we have out revenge, O what zeal has made me a fool for Christ? Every day we do not excuse sin, condone sin, make provision for the flesh to fulfill the lust in which sin is conceived, we take our revenge upon the enemy in the field of battle, Go and Sin No More. When your obedience is filled, when that beam is taken out of thine own eye, O what vehement desire to tear down the strongholds others build to excuse their sin, to make provision for it and justify themselves with lies, with deceit, with vain imaginations. Burning in the fire that corruptible image of man that they have made God into. For Christ is not a minister of sin. The eye that offends, the hand that offends is cast out, cut off from the body, it is not invited in, gloried in, it is revenged. Not revenge by the manner of the world but by the Way written. Not by the imaginations of man and the wills of men but by the Truth. Revenge to cast the light into the dark, to expose sin, to make known the transgression of the Law is sin and surely death. To keep the Commandment Cry Aloud, SPARE NOT, lift up thy voice show the people of God. Isaiah 58:1, " Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. " Bringing EVERY thought into the obedience of Christ, seeking Him daily, exhorting daily, and keeping the Commandment "GO AND SIN NO MORE". Not that I write and do it not, I write and I do. I do stand fast and hold fast and dig deep, I do contend and fight the good fight of faith that works by love and is absolutely proven by deeds, by works of faith, having the testimony of God in me, the Law written upon my heart and mind I am a doer of the Word of God. For through Christ I can do all things and if no other thing be possible, I can and do Go and Sin No More. Each day is the day for salvation, yesterday is past, I fought that that fight yesterday and I prevailed working together with Christ, I rose early and sought the Lord, I put on my armor and I kept my mind upon the Lord and I knew "peace", which is freedom from sin because I was obedient unto the Word of God who said "GO AND SIN NO MORE". I did not fail yesterday, I did not fall short yesterday. I had my revenge yesterday, and I will have it today. Today I rose and sought the Lord early, I do not doubt that I am called to walk upon the living waters with the Lord. I know He hears those who sin not, that His face upon them and not against them, they that do righteousness as He is righteous. He hears the upright in heart who earnestly desire the Truth. This day today is the day, now is the time for salvation, tomorrow is not here, what can I do of tomorrow? Today I stand fast and fight the good fight, I dig deep and my armor is strong, for I am strong in the Lord and will not be moved by all the inability sold as the Truth. I will not fail today, I do not fail each day, I make no provision for my flesh to fulfill its lust, I may walk in a body of flesh, I will walk not in the lust of it, for the Spirit and the flesh are contrary and they do war against each other. So I do not war with my flesh, for I walk in the Spirit and do not make provision for my flesh to fulfill the lust thereof. It is by choice and with the fellowship with the Lord Jesus being a fellow labourer together, I have exercised my free will this day, today to keep, maintain and be that doer to obey, to humbly walk with God being obedient out of love, by choice I stand right here and sin not at all, failing not at all. In the flesh you are not able to do what you would. In the Spirit you are able to do what you would. This is not speaking of not ever be able, only to them that heed not the Truth, walk not in the flesh to serve the LUST of the flesh. Walk in the Spirit and you will be able. For the fruits of the flesh are not the fruits of the spirit as explained perfectly in Galatians 5. Seek not excuse and provisions and you will not find excuses and provisions. Galatians 5:17, " For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. " For the double minded man received nothing of the Lord, for they can not keep the Law, for the Carnal mind can not please God, for it pleases itself in the flesh so you can not do that which is good and right even knowing what that is, ye still can not do right by knowing evil. By fulfilling the lust of the flesh you are not able to walk in the Spirit, to live in it. You are always warring, ever learning and never able to come to the understanding, a ship rudderless, no one captain, no one master, being blown by this foolish doctrines of men, to this tradition to that one, to this vain imagination to that one, to this vain talker to that one. Ever searching the scriptures and wrestling with them to your own destruction. Leaning upon man, and refusing to know the Way to the Truth to have Life. Refusing to hearken, refusing to turn back, you lust of the flesh and pretend to be in the Spirit. It is one or the other, the luke warm will be spewed out of the mouth of the Lord. They receive nothing who mix the cups, who sit at the table of devils and then the Lord, ye shall surely die saith the Lord knowing good and evil for you can not do that which ye would. O what revenge to expose the lies, to tear down strongholds of deceit built up by sin and death. I can not fail if I keep the Commandments (for love does not fail!!!!!!!!!!!) and never lean upon man. What is love? Keeping the Commandments! Doing it all as unto the Lord, inquiring of Him in all matters, in all my ways. Waiting upon Him, I can not fail if I labouer with Him in the vineyard. My mind will know PERFECT PEACE for it is stayed upon Him. How can a mind stayed upon the Lord go off and sin some more the sins unto death? It can not, will not, but the mind be not upon Him. Many pretend, many vain talkers all around (wolves that look like sheep), yet who can hear Him, understand Him? The flock hears the voice of the Master and they follow Him, they do not hear the voice of them that lie, that deceive, that speak always of the inability, of failing every day and walking in their flesh, that is in the lust of it, that is fulfilling it and conceiving sin into the world through lust. 1 Corinthians 3:9, " For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building. " 2 Corinthians 7:11, " For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter. " To do the work is revenge indeed. What pleases God? Hebrews 13:16, " But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. " What ought not be forgotten? Hebrews 13:15, " By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. " Say it again, it is frightful to realize any time has passed and I have not praised Him, thought of Him, inquired, made mention, magnified His Name, gave increase to Him. I must decrease so he may increase. It is not an hour a week on some tradition day of men. Many forget their attire, any goes days without any real service, any real fruit. This ought not be, it is not right, it is not good. Jeremiah 2:32, " Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? yet my people have forgotten me days without number. " O what revenge! What Zeal! To be a fool for Christ Amen. Forget not... O what revenge to tell them to forget not, to magnify His Name in thoughts, in words, in deeds. To be a broken record and keep proclaiming the absolute Truth, the one absolute Fact, that there is not other fact, praise ye the Lord and magnify His Name. Bless Him, give glory to Him, set me free indeed I am set free through Him. James 1:25, " But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. " Perfect Law of Liberty, "if ye love Me, keep My Commandments"! Liberty expresses freedom, the POWER OF CHOICE, does not that slap one right in the face? My cheek is all red! Liberty - permission especially to go freely within specified limits... To be free indeed but not like they say, not free to sin some more, not free to walk in the lust of the flesh. Not free to profess loving but showing not the fruits of loving. Not being a good tree but producing bad fruit. Not being a bad tree but producing good fruit. It is a good tree that produces good fruit and a bad tree that produces bad fruit. Free from sin, so one can now be free to Go and Sin No More. If you love Me, KEEP My Commandments! For what is love? Walking in the Commandments. Love liberty, being free? Then if one will obey from the heart, they will remain free indeed. Everything written here is to express "faithful obedience". I believe the whole book of the Lord expresses this Truth. If you obey Me, you will live, but if you obey Me not, you will surely die. It is expressed over and over in many ways. Which of the many ways, that are but One Way, will capture your heart to obey? To acknowledge the Truth wholly, sin unto death or obedience unto righteousness. Having this knowledge and not making provisions to avoid the Truth. It is a beautiful seventh day, fourth Commandment day, a day God Himself rested, a day He sanctified, made holy and made for us all. God made for us a whole day, who is given something by the one one professes to love with all their hearts, minds, bodies, might and strength and balks at it? Who then changes it? Who has the gall, the nerve, the audacity to then argue against it. It is a day worth fighting for. A day to rest, to spend a day with God, sounds like that would be a great thing indeed. The Lords day is but one day, it is not any day man says it is, it is the day God said it was. Imagine that, God said it and men are to obey it. Sounds like if one loved Him, they would genuinely want to obey Him. Liberty, freedom with limits, I give to you everything in the garden, but do not eat of the Tree of knowledge of good and evil. If you eat of this Tree you will surely die. If you mix the cup of the Lord with the cup of devils you will surely die. If you share the tables of the Lord and then share the table of devils you will surely die. If you buy the lie that you will not surely die if you do these things, then you are not a follower of the Lord God Almighty. You follow the only other thing there is to follow. One plans a trip, studies all the aspects of the trip, looks for a guide to lead them through the valleys, the mountains, across rivers and oceans, through forests and jungles and deserts. All filled with ever kind of snare and trap to keep you from enduring to the end and finishing the trip. One wants a guide that is the best of the best, the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, the guide of all guides. One promises that guide, makes an oath to follow Him no matter what, to obey Him no matter what, to trust in Him regardless of what ones own affections, passions, desires, lusts may want, one decides to set aside all faith, belief and hope of themselves and to trust Him alone. You know there is no other that can lead you through it all, you have done your research, Christ is the Way to the Truth to have Life. There is no other Way, no matter what they say, there is One Way, One Truth, One Lord who can lead you trough it all. You are told of all the trails and tests that will search out your heart and prove you along the Way. You are told many have tried this but few are able. That many along the Way will be led off by vain imagination, strange creations, by inventions, by promises of a better way, and easier way. A new way, that is broad and easy. You will be told that it has all been done for you, all obeyed for you, that once you follow Me, no matter what you are always a follower of Me. You can do nothing to change that even if you follow another and cease to obey Me. You are in fact obeying Me by not obeying Me. For I have paid it all, even though I have said count the cost. All you have to do is repeat some words and then you are free to live without constraint, temperance, self control. You may fulfill every lust and nothing you do can change the out come of the voyage, the trek. In fact it is all finished already, you do not even need to finish and you will still be a winner, crowned just for showing up for an hour a week. The Best of the Best warned you, you were told that you would be counted as a sheep for the slaughter, that all these things would come to be but you will make it if you do not become offended by the Truth of it all and endure with Him. If you will stand fast to what has been said, written, by all that you already know is the Truth. That if you love Me, obey Me and I will get you through to the end. Be faithful, be True, monogamous, fidelity, loyalty, sincerity, trusty, be ye sober, be ye obedient. Dig deep and you will have revenge upon all that try to lead you astray to another way. You have been warned, time and time again, it is been made perfectly clear over and over. Deuteronomy 4:30, " When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice; " Proverbs 25:12, " As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear. " Romans 1:5, " By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name: " Romans 16:26, " But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith: " Romans 6:16, " Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? " 1 Peter 1:2, " Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied. " 1 Peter 1:14, " As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: " I encourage all to be OBEDIENT, always, in all things. To never forget it, to always be fighting the good fight of faith working by love and proven by ones deeds. Faithful no matter what, do not be offended by the Truth. 2 Corinthians 2:9, " For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things. " Titus 2:9, " Exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not answering again; " Ephesians 6:5, " Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; " Acts 6:7, " And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith. " Isaiah 1:19, " If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: " Philemon 1:21, " Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say. " Philippians 2:8, " And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. " A Path defined and word defined, a way made clear, plainly, perfectly, nothing flattering, just the Truth. Set free, given liberty to obey from the heart after having gone whoring in the mire. Mercy! Faithfulness, true love, fidelity, monogamy, loyalty, sobriety. If you love Me, you will obey Me. 2 Timothy 2:19, " Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. " Just keep searching for the Path and it will appear before you faithfully, Matthew 24:45, " Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? " Matthew 25:21, " His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. " Matthew 25:23, " His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. " Luke 19:17, " And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities. " Hebrews 3:5, " And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after; " 1 Corinthians 4:2, " Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful. " To the unfaithful, weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth, Matthew 25:30, " And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. " Fulfill ones own obedience so one can defend the faith faithfully. I wrote of my error and how it silenced me. How I was certain God would not forgive me, help me again, but how He was faithful and did forgive me, and released the snare I had stepped in. I was in that snare for three months, I cried on my knees over and over. It was not until I was shown the damage my unfaithfulness caused in a man I called friend. How instead of being able to revenge disobedience I was put to shame and showed the Lord to be not enough through my own want. It still hurts to this day, it never will go away, it will always prick me to remind me how easy it is to stray of the Path if I put my will before His. When I should of been following, I was leading and I fell into a ditch indeed. That was years ago, and I have been offered that same snare over and over again. I guess it is best to keep putting me to the same test, Amen. It is far better to obey, far, far better! Better to go over it and over it, to sit here and set my mind to the task at hand and not become distracted. To this day do what makes me happy truly, to write about Christ, who set me free from sin and death. To cry because He did so, to be thankful it is all real and not the imagination of any man. Christ gave His all for us all, no matter what it remains the Truth. A Truth worth fighting for. to be on the right side. There is a lightness upon what is right. A comfort one can lose sight of this. One can also keep sight of it is one is diligent. As I always say I write what I need to hear. I get to share it with anyone who wants to hear it, it is free. I am not asking anything for it, keep what you have, and take freely what is given and be thankful for it. By the Grace of God, I get to tell about Him, me, go figure that. I will never not marvel of this. I get to write, to speak, to share the Truth of being faithful. Me? Are you still certain Lord? Yes, the foolish, weak and base that equals nothing. All praise and glory to His Name. All praise and glory to the Lord. Blessed be the Father and the Son, bless, bless, bless! Seek, Repent and Sin No More. It is remission and not permission. Abide... Blessed be the Name of the Lord Amen and Amen... https://lesliewross.weebly.com/blog/readiness-to-revenge-all-disobedience

All That Matters Is Christ...Weeks before my death the Lord knocked upon my heart, I heard and opened the door. My life has been forever changed, a new man indeed. Me a wicked man saved by the Grace of God, no more that wicked man. Died at 43 and was given a choice to stay or go. If I stayed I had to tell of the Lord Jesus Christ and here I am. I share my walk with my Lord, my candle is lit and I pray it be a light for all to know the Lord Jesus is the Way to the Truth to have Life, Amen. Archives
