Christ — Last Spokesperson

God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son — Hebrews 1:1-2a

Many claim to speak for God and in the past many have but the Bible tells us something changed when God sent his son, Jesus.

No more Old Testament type prophets are needed to represent God to us low-lings; everyone and everything since is focused on Christ — who he is, what he has done, what he is now doing, what he shall do when he returns. In fact, the whole gift of Prophesy is now changed.

[H]e that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort – 1st Corinthians 14:3

Prophesy since Christ, as my old preacher friend said long ago, is to “Build up, Stir up, and Cheer up” — and everyone can do it (1st Cor. 14:31) because the Holy Spirit is given for all who receive Christ as their savior.

Stay clear of those that want to speak to you for God, all his sheep can hear his voice.

Who Will Pray, Now?

Sons, the report that I hear the people of the Lord spreading isn’t good! If one person sins against another, God will take care of him. However, when a person sins against the Lord, who will pray for him?” — 1st Samuel 2:24-25 (God’s Word Translation)

We have human judges for deciding matters between two people but when the offended party is God, himself, there is no one highter! It’s just not smart to make the God of the universe angry at you!

Once he was mad at you there was no where else to go … until Christ! Jesus loved us enough to satisfy justice on our behalf and bring us into God’s favor.

when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son — Romans 5:10

Who will pray for us?

He is able, once and forever, to save those who come to God through him. He lives forever to intercede with God on their behalf. — Hebrews 7:25 (New Living News Translation)

Jesus!

Sound Bite: Jesus is praying for me!
Prayer: Jesus, you have done what no judge on earth could do, you reconciled me to the God of the Universe! Thank you for continuing to pray for me before the throne! I need it. Amen!

The Cross by Numbers

Posted in Christ, Cross, tagged , , on September 2, 2011| Leave a Comment »

[God] said, “Number the congregation of the People of Israel by clans and families … The tribe of Reuben numbered 46,500 … Simeon 59,300 … Gad 45,650 … Judah 74,600 … Issachar 54,400 … Zebulun 57,400 … Ephraim 40,500 …. Manasseh 32,200 … Benjamin 35,400 …Dan 62,700 … Asher 41,500 … Naphtali 53,400.

[Then God] said, “The People of Israel are to set up camp circling the Tent of Meeting and facing it. Each company is to camp under its distinctive tribal flag. To the east toward the sunrise are the companies of the camp of Judah, Issachar next to them, Zebulun next to them. South are the companies of the camp of Reuben, Simeon, Gad. To the west Ephraim, Manasseh, Benjamin. To the north Dan, Asher, and Naphtali” — Numbers 1:1 – 2:34

Someone pointed out that from above, with all the people numbered and camped around God’s tent as directed, it all formed a giant cross pointing East.

Do the math and see for yourself!

The cross has always been God’s plan for humanity’s redemption!

“Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot … was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you” – 1st Peter 1:18b-20
