Lets just take a glimpse back to Genesis. We will find in chapter four that Abels sacrifice was brought about by blood and according to scripture God was pleased with it, but was not pleased with Cains sacrifice which was the fruit of the ground. That tells us something, anything but the Blood. What can wash away my sin, nothing but the blood of Jesus. I will go a bit more in detail on how important the shedding of blood really is.

Lets go forward to Exodus chapter twelve. It was very important that there be a lamb for a household which tells us something. That I can not depend on someone else for my salvation or what someone else experiences. I have to accept the Lamb or the Blood offering for myself. Please take note, that it was in the evening that this took place and it was symbolic of the sacrifice that Jesus would pay in dying on the cross. If you note in Hebrews chapter ten verse eleven, that there was a continuous offering up of sacrifices for the people but the Bible says it could never take away sin. So you see that the priest had very little rest as there was a continual work to be done. In verse twelve we read that when Christ offered himself, the one and only sacrifice, he sat down, this signifying that the sacrifice was complete. It was for the whole world but there must be an acceptance of that sacrifice that was made on Calvary. That the Blood of Jesus Christ, Gods son, cleanse us from all sin, anything that is unlike God must be covered by the Blood.

You can recognize God, you can truthfully say I or we believe there is a God, the Bible says that the Devils believe and he fears and trembles. One must go a little further then believing there is a God. One must believe there is and there is a covering for sin, and nothing else only the Blood of Jesus.

There was no other atonement made, the only true Blood that was shed was what was shed that day some two thousand years ago to take away sin forever. When God gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish but have everlasting life. When God sees that Blood applied to the hearts by faith in the Lamb that was slain.

I will end with this little thought for you. Can you imagine the look on the high priest face that evening when he went in to offer up the evening sacrifice. When God was doing something else outside. The bible says when Jesus said, it is finished the Vail that was separating the Holy of Holies, it was rent in twain from the top to the bottom thereby giving access to the presence of God. Do not ever conceive the idea that you can enter into the presence of God without the Blood applied. He said when I see the Blood I will pass over you. You can say, well I say my prayers, I read my Bible. That is good in itself to read your Bible but you need to accept Jesus Christ into your heart by faith.

By grace are ye saved that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God onto salvation. Through faith believing on the finish work on Calvary forsaking the things of the world and turning to God.

So the things that was written in the Bible is enough to let us know what is and that which is to come. God did not allow everything in detail to be written because if He did man could very well pin point the day in which the Lord would come. So say some try to use every little incident that happens in the world to try and bring it in line with prophecy but that is not so.

Man has tried many times to set times and days but Jesus said that only the Father knows not even the angels in Heaven knows when Christ shall come. The most important thin is not when He will come, the most important is to be ready when He does come. He said, be ye also ready for a hour that ye think not the son of man cometh. (Matthew 25:1-12) Jesus gave forth the parable of the ten virgins, only those that were ready went in then the door was shut.

Luke 12:25 tells us it’s too late when the door is shut, the day of grace is over, finished, come to an end. While God have dealt with this generation of the age of grace longer then He ever dealt with man in any other dispensation. For over two thousand years God has reached down in love, mercy, patience, long suffering; not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. Someone may say, will God send anyone to Hell, many will go to a lost eternity without God because He has rejected the plan that God has set forth in His word. There is going to be a shaking.

Hebrews 12:27
The only things that will remain is the thing that cannot be shaken. I don’t wonder why they use to sing years ago on Christ the solid rock I stand. All other ground is sinking sand. His oath, His covenant, His blood is the only thing that will keep us when the shaking starts. I’m glad I’m on the firm foundation, Jesus Christ. There is a place of safety, there is a refuge for the soul, there is peace in the midst of the storm.

Proverbs 18:10
The name of the Lord is a strong tower, the righteous run into it and they are safe.

Psalms 9:17
The wicked shall be turned into Hell, and all the nations that forget God.

Now the question arises what, who, where is the Church? Be sure of this one thing, the Church that Jesus talked about, Paul talked about, was not an organized denomination as we see and hear proclaimed. Jesus said to Peter, upon this Rock I will build my Church, and the gates of Hell will not prevail against it. We have seen denominations crumble, thus a proof that is not the Church Jesus talked about.

The Church is a living organism indwelt by the Holy Spirit, washed in the Blood of the Lamb, sanctified, separated from the world but live in the world but does not contaminate his or her self with the things of the world, that includes Hollywood. James 1:27 Read Psalms 24

If you think that you are a part of the Church, of the first born, if you can smoke, drink, play in a nightclub Saturday night and then partake in organized church activities on Sunday you better think again. No man can serve two masters, you cannot serve God and mammon. (Matthew 6:24)

The Church has one foundation, is Jesus Christ the Lord, he is a new creation by water and the word, the true Church does not hide behind some name tag; you cannot separate the body of Christ or the Church. The true body of Christ or the Church will not want to be separated from other believers. Paul spoke about the Husband and wife in relation to the Church (Ephesians 5:23-33) The body of Christ is suffering today for more reasons than one.

(1 Corinthians 12:26) If one member suffers we all suffer. The Church is suffering today spirituality and one of the main reasons, and I say this without fear of contradictions; that ministries that God hath placed within the body cannot function in the local organizations, therefore the whole body is suffering. I have seen it through the years, and am talking from experience not from what I heard someone say or read in a book.

Read 1 Corinthians 11:30. My friend believe this if you like, if you don’t recognize a member of the body of Christ, you could be in trouble. I am well aware there will be thousands read this, some may say, that’s you opinion, no my friend, I hate to use natural things to compare but I will in this; I have been doing electrical work, it could be fatal if I should use my opinion. I have to know what I’m at, it could mean someone’s life when it comes to the Gospel. It’s not a matter of opinion. Jesus said, you shall know the truth and the truth shall set your free. It’s only the truth of Gods’ word will set people free. The commission to the Church empowered by the Holy Ghost, to bind to loose to set men and woman free, to heal, to cast out devils.

I would like end with Joel chapter 2 verse 1. Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my Holy Mountain.

Time to sound the alarm, wake up behold the bridegroom cometh.

(Luke 2:9-14)
The angel declared the birth of a savior, the Redeemer, thus fulfilling Isaiah 9:6. Unto us a child is given, unto us a child is born, and the government shall be upon His shoulders. Back to Luke 2: 9-14
Unto you is born this day in the city of David a savior which is Christ the Lord. That declaration, there came a host of angels from Heaven singing, I don’t wonder, why do you!

In John Chapter 1:29, John the Baptist when he was baptizing in the river of Jordan, declared publicly who Jesus was; the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world. In Mark Chapter 1:10-11 we see and hear very clearly who Jesus is. This time God made sure that everybody present would know and make no mistake. It was declared from Heaven who this man was, that was standing in the River of Jordan that day. I personally, don’t believe that was His first time standing in the River Jordan.

If you read Daniel Chapter 3, you will see that the one that stood in the midst of the fiery furnace was like unto the Son of God. Oh! Friend!, the man that walked the shores of Galilee was no mere man, He was the Son of the most High.

John said, Chapter 1:1-15
The word was God the same was in the beginning with God, and you can go on and on. You cannot exhaust the creator, don’t try to exhaust or analyze God. Worship Him, Glorify Him, Worship Him, Worship His Majesty, King of all Kings.

Paper bothers me, I would love to be declaring it verbally, that way you can say it and make it more profound. In fact, there is not enough paper in my possession even to write very much on about the man of Galilee.

The man not only walked on the shores of Galilee, He walked on the sea of Galilee. One day He was asleep in the boat that was about to go shipwreck because of the storm and the people that had Him aboard. I wonder did they really know who was aboard, nevertheless, He woke up and commanded the wind to cease, the bible says and immediately there was a great calm.

If there is one person who reads this that you find yourself in trouble in a storm, He is the master of every situation, the man of Galilee Oh man of Galilee! Walk through this life with me

You can’t meet the man of Galilee and be the same after!

Paul was not ashamed to confess that the gospel that he declared was not his gospel but the of the one who had called him to preach, Paul said in,

1 Corinthians 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.

1 Corinthians 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.

So it’s a problem to even try to preach the gospel without preaching the cross.

Again in,

1 Corinthians 2:4-5
And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:

That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

This word comes not by man, neither by the will of man, but by the Holy Ghost. Man may try to change but the Psalmist said,

Psalm 119: 89
For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven.

Jesus said, heaven and earth would pass away but the word of the Lord abideth forever. God’s word the gospel of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ cannot be changed, cannot be altered it abideth alone. There is no other gospel that can bring hope to the hopeless, strength to the weak, joy to the mourning. And promises Life Everlasting in the presence of God and His Son, Jesus Christ. That is why I use this topic to declare.

Paul said, For I declare unto you the whole counsel of God, everything that God desires for His children is declared in the gospel or the Word of God.

Luke 4:18
The words of Jesus The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

This is the gospel, this is the word that every last soul on earth needs to hear. This is not a gospel to bring people in bondage. This is a deliverance gospel. This gospel is to set the prisoners free, to loosen the bands of the captive, set them free, none other then a gospel of deliverance of Power. It cannot be changed, it will never be changed, it will abide forever!

I will be continuing on with this topic. I have considered just to lay a foundation and there is no better foundation to build on than the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. For no other foundation can no man lay then that which is laid. Jesus Christ himself being the Chief Cornerstone.
