Dear Brothers & Sisters,
Below, Matthew is so clear about
what God is interested in and not interested in. Since we’re so close to the return of Jesus,
I felt it would be a good topic to discuss.
Are you a live fish, or a dead one that gets caught in the net? Our Lord cares as much for the “unsaved” as
He does the “saved” after all, He created ALL mankind not desiring that one
should perish.
[Matthew 13:47-50 NASB] [47]
"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet cast into the sea,
and gathering fish of every kind; [48] and when it was filled,
they drew it up on the beach; and they sat down and gathered the good fish
into containers, but the bad they threw away. [49] "So
it will be at the end of the age; the angels will come forth and
take out the wicked from among the righteous, 50 and will throw them
into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of
teeth.”
This Scripture explains what a
“good” fish versus a “bad” one is. There
are so many different religions, nations, and ideas of mankind, just like the
sea is filled with so many various urchin types – all of which were created by
God.
God is not interested in;
the type of urchin you may be, what church you go to, or man made doctrine
you follow. If your FAITH [belief] is in
your own works. If you’re reflecting man
and the worlds’ ways, then you’re a dead [stinky] fish, that will be “thrown
into the furnace of fire”
What He cares about; if you’re
alive, hungry and thirsty to seek His righteousness. Do you pray for God’s will to be done in your
life and others? He wants a RELATIONSHIP
WITH YOU!
He’s not classifying you based on type,
but have you asked Jesus for forgiveness and to come into your life, then becoming;
a servant, who’s honest, loving, giving, with humility in serving others.
To me, the bottom
line is to strive in understanding, knowledge, and wisdom, so others see the
light of Jesus within us, and desire what we have.
God knew in advance that [Matthew
13:26 NASB] "But when
the wheat sprouted and bore grain, then the tares became evident
also. ...” His solution was in, [Matthew 13:30 NASB] ‘“Allow both to grow together
until the harvest; and in the time of the harvest I will say
to the reapers, "First gather up the tares and bind them in
bundles to burn them up; but gather the wheat into my barn.’”
We need to “Preach the Gospel”
which is listed 61 times in the New Testament. Starting in [Mark 16:15 NASB] And He said to them, "Go
into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.” Ending in [Revelation 14:6 NASB] “And I
saw another angel flying in mid-heaven, having an eternal gospel to preach to those who live on
the earth, and to every nation and tribe and tongue and people;” I do believe that covers ALL mankind, saved
and unsaved.
I’m not trying to judge anyone,
but remind you not to give up through any trial or tribulation you might be
going through. What’s important to
remember, is that He promised NEVER TO LEAVE YOU OR FORSAKE YOU and that
yesterday is gone, but you still have today to change anything that doesn’t
please Abba [Father]. As long as we’re
alive, He’s keeping the door open for “whosoever will” let Him in when He
knocks at your door. As [Revelation 3:20 NASB] says, “'Behold, I
stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the
door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me.” What a GOOD GOD we have! In Jesus’ Name.
Blessings
to all who read the blog and “study to show yourself approved, in His Word.” Keep
the Faith and be AMAZED how much more you learn, as you read and re-read the
Bible. I promise you, there is so much more the Holy Spirit wants to
reveal to you. I pray for ALL of you
nightly,
Sandy F.
