The power of The Cross

[savedbygrace57]

Please dont attempt to tell me how i must respond! who died and left you in charge?:toofunny

Now! i believe the Cross of Christ Jesus works according to scripture!
Do you have a scripture you would like to discuss? Or are you one who allows their own flesh decide things that are not revealed in scripture?

1Co 4:6






And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.
Rom 15:3



For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.
Rom 15:4



For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.



2Jn 1:9



Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
2Jn 1:10



If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:

I believe this;

1Co 1:17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
1Co 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

That the Cross may be made of none effect. Also that those who do not find its wisdom perish and can know its power!


I believe some more about His Cross, but i think i will see what point you are trying to make?

2Ti 2:16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
2Ti 2:17 And their word will eat as doth a canker:

Mat 4:6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Mat 4:7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

I believe it works perfectly!

I had rather have a discussion like adults? If you have a point please lay it out?

All things work together for good, for those who love Him

Gal 6:14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.

Many find the thought of the Cross a harsh thing, and it seems few find the need to visit its purpose at all? For one to enter into the deeper things of God, one must use its power against the "lie" that abides in every mans "flesh". The flesh is convinced that it need not give up its dominion over the body, it keeps itself enthroned by the lie, (ye shall not surely die). The Cross, although at times is painful, is our greatest weapon against our on "flesh". "The pain may last for the night but the joy comes in the morning"

1Co 2:1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.
1Co 2:2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
1Co 2:3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.
1Co 2:4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
1Co 2:5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

Many try to "reason" the scriptures away, but none can!

 

[Mitspa]

Php 3:18 (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:
Php 3:19 Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)
Php 3:20 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:

You see, many would change the Word of God to conform to their own desires. This comes from the "lust of the flesh", "Whose god is their belly".
A true servant of Christ will not reject the Cross nor its wisdom. They will always seek to conform to His death, and to His resurrection! This is where the the real knowledge of "good and evil" is understood. The Cross of Christ Jesus is a "Tree of Life" to those who seek its fruit!:yes

Well i try not to have or make-up an opinion based on my own desires! I look to the Word of God alone to decide such matters!

The first scipture one should consider is this;



Rom 10:6

But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above

Rom 10:7

Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)

The judgment of God, is found throughout the scriptures. Now have i come to a "full understanding" of how God will judge those who reject the Salvation in Christ? I would be full of pride to claim that i have! I do however welcome an honest discussion, within the scriptures! Not according to human desires of human wisdom! Do you have a scripture you would like to discuss?

1Jn 2:15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
1Jn 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
1Jn 2:17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

Dont be deceived, there is a heaven with eternal rewards, to be gained.

The Cross of Jesus Christ is not a magic wand! It works according to Faith!



Rom 10:9

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Rom 10:10

For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Rom 10:11

For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

M: Faith is the key!

This is also the message of Hebrews 11. ("By faith...by faith...".)
