Measure of Faith

Every man was given the measure of faith. God desires that all would be saved (John 3:16). To those who are “ever learning" and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth”, this is for you. The very Bible many claim to hold so dear, proclaims truth. Truth that is meant to set free. The deeds of the Nicolaitanes, taking control, have brought, oh so many, captive. If you do not, “Come out of her, my people, that you be not partakers of her sins” you will be a “partaker her plagues”. You are, and always were responsible for your own salvation. If you do not love truth more than all else you are not worthy to escape the wrath to come. You loved your comfort in life more than you love God, you buried your “talent”, your measure of faith.

John 14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: you believe in God, believe also in me (Jesus)…. 3….. I will come again (end of tribulation), and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4And where I go you know (heaven), and the way you know. 5Thomas said unto him, Lord, we know not whither you go; and how can we know the way? (This is after 3 years with Jesus, Mark 16:14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen. Luke 13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.) 6Jesus said unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 7If you had known me, you should have known my Father also: and from henceforth you know him, and have seen him. (John 15:23 He that hates me hates my Father also. 24 If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father. Matthew 11:2 Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples, 3And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another? 4Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and show John again those things which ye do hear and see: 5The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them. 6And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.) 8Philip said unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it suffice (will be enough) us. 9Jesus said unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet have you not known me, (insert your name here……….) Philip? (Luke 18:8..Never the less when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?) He that has seen me hath seen the Father; and how say you then, Show us the Father? 10Believe you not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwells in me, he does the works (John 7:17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. Jeremiah 31:33But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.). 11Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake. 12Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me (Matthew 7:21Not every one that says unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 2 Timothy 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth., Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened.), the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father (Mark 16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.). 13And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14If you shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. 15If you love me, keep my commandments. 16And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it sees him not, neither knows him: but you know him; for he dwells with you, (He is not in you now, but when you are Baptised in the Holy Spirit with signs following them that believe.) 9 and shall be in you. 18I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. (Luke 24:49 … behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry/wait you in the city of Jerusalem, until you be endued with power from on high. John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come. 14He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you. Isaiah 28:10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little: 11For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people. 12To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith you may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear. Hebrews 11: 6But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.)

2 Corinthians 1:20….All the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, to the glory of God by us.

Revelation 19:10…… I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

Philippians 2:12…. Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. 13For it is God which works in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
