Understand True Things and Follow the True Shepherd

Leviticus

31“Keep my commands and follow them. I am the Lord. 32Do not profane my holy name, for I must be acknowledged as holy by the Israelites. I am the Lord, who made you holy 33and who brought you out of Egypt to be your God. I am the Lord.”

Jeremiah 50

29“Summon archers against Babylon,

all those who draw the bow.

Encamp all around her;

let no one escape.

Repay her for her deeds;

do to her as she has done.

For she has defied the Lord,

the Holy One of Israel.

30Therefore, her young men will fall in the streets;

all her soldiers will be silenced in that day,” Continue reading “Understand True Things and Follow the True Shepherd”

Luke 12

38It will be good for those servants whose master finds them ready, even if he comes in the middle of the night or toward daybreak.

Richard:  The Second Advent may not come in the way you expect.  Yet, if you pray sincerely, God will show you the way.

Jeremiah 32

13“In their presence I gave Baruch these instructions: 14‘This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Take these documents, both the sealed and unsealed copies of the deed of purchase, and put them in a clay jar so they will last a long time. 15For this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Houses, fields and vineyards will again be bought in this land.’

Richard:  Although God judged Israel, He promised that eventually they would return to him.   It is up to us to exercise our portion of responsibility to return to God and Christ. Continue reading “Before Jesus Came the People Could Not Relate Directly to God”

Exodus 1

1These are the names of the sons of Israel who went to Egypt with Jacob, each with his family: 2Reuben, Simeon, Levi and Judah; 3Issachar, Zebulun and Benjamin; 4Dan and Naphtali; Gad and Asher. 5The descendants of Jacob numbered seventya in all; Joseph was already in Egypt.

Jeremiah 47

5 The Anakim who survive[a]
    in Gaza and Ashkelon
will mourn for you
by shaving their heads
    and sitting in silence. Continue reading “The Death of Jesus Caused God Indescribable Sorrow”

Empathize with God’s Sorrow

Romans 4

11And he received circumcision as a sign, a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised. So then, he is the father of all who believe but have not been circumcised, in order that righteousness might be credited to them. 12And he is then also the father of the circumcised who not only are circumcised but who also follow in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.

Jeremiah 13

1Thus saith the LORD unto me, Go and get thee a linen girdle, and put it upon thy loins, and put it not in water. 2So I got a girdle according to the word of the LORD, and put it on my loins. 3And the word of the LORD came unto me the second time, saying, 4Take the girdle that thou hast got, which is upon thy loins, and arise, go to Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole of the rock. 5So I went, and hid it by Euphrates, as the LORD commanded me. 6And it came to pass after many days, that the LORD said unto me, Arise, go to Euphrates, and take the girdle from thence, which I commanded thee to hide there. 7Then I went to Euphrates, and digged, and took the girdle from the place where I had hid it: and, behold, the girdle was marred, it was profitable for nothing.

8Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 9Thus saith the LORD, After this manner will I mar the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem. 10This evil people, which refuse to hear my words, which walk in the imagination of their heart, and walk after other gods, to serve them, and to worship them, shall even be as this girdle, which is good for nothing. 11For as the girdle cleaveth to the loins of a man, so have I caused to cleave unto me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah, saith the LORD; that they might be unto me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not hear.

Richard  This belt covers the loins, or sexual parts.  The gift of God for Israel was the promise to be part of God’s lineage through Christ Jesus and Christ at His Second Return (Rev. Sun Myung Moon).  Israel has trashed that heritage of God and will now receive God’s wrath. Continue reading “Empathize with God’s Sorrow”

Genesis 24

26Then the man bowed down and worshiped the Lord, 27saying, “Praise be to the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, who has not abandoned his kindness and faithfulness to my master. As for me, the Lord has led me on the journey to the house of my master’s relatives.”

Richard:  Here Abraham sent his trusted servant to find a wife for his song Isaac from among his relatives.

Jeremiah 23

3“I myself will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them and will bring them back to their pasture, where they will be fruitful and increase in number. Continue reading “Become a Member of Jesus Family”
