ARE YOU ASHAMED OF JESUS?

Luke 6:39And he spoke a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch? 40The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.

Can those who are not filled with the Holy Spirit lead those who are?
Can we who are filled, as our Master, evidenced as the Word of God qualifies, in truth, compromise ourselves to give approval those who are not?

WHO GETS HEWN DOWN? WHO GET PURGED?

Matthew 3:6 7….when he (John T. Baptist) saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? 8Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: 9And think not to say within yourselves (legally speaking), We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. 10And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which brings not forth good fruit (fruit of the Holy Spirit) is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 11I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance. but he that comes after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: 12Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

ARE YOU ASHAMED OF JESUS?

Luke 9:26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels. 27But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.

ASHAMED OF JESUS WORDS?

Did you ever say “Holy Roller”? Did you ever say “Jesus Freak”? Did you ever say “Bible Bangers” or “Bible Thumpers”? Did you ever say or think that someone is so “Heavenly Minded that they are No Earthly Good? Do you hold onto a doctrine of man over the word of God? Do you even know or care? Who mocked Jesus? Who mocked the apostles and disciples? Pharisees! Acts 2:13 Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine. Many mock what they don’t know, or through lack of faith cannot experience themselves. Jude 1:18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. 19These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

Acts 7:51 You stiff necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye.

IT IS A FEARFUL THING TO FALL INTO THE HANDS OF THE LIVING GOD!

(Please excuse my paraphrase.)1 John 4:3And every spirit (even the one in a man) that confesses not that Jesus Christ (Anointed) is come in (and to) the flesh (of man, being the temple of the Holy Spirit) is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist (Because they deny the words of Jesus and deny the Holy Spirit in truth.), whereof you have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 4You are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 5They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world hear them. (Do you think that John didn’t know the difference between those who had the Spirit of God and those who did not?)

Titus 3:10A man that is a heretic after the first and second admonition reject; 11Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sins, being condemned of himself.

IT”S ALL ABOUT YOUR CHOICES!

You only have two choices, EITHER: 1 Peter 1:22 Seeing you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren,…….OR: John 12:47….If any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. 48He that rejects me, and receives not my words, has one that judges him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

Matthew 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 19Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

WHAT DO YOU TEACH MEN?

Matthew 12:36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

WE teach by our words, our actions, our facial expressions, body gestures even our lack of acknowledgement to truth. Either we are for God who is truth or we will find ourselves with the unbelieving and fearful. Read God's word, see if it isn't so

Proverbs 6:16These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: 17A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18An heart that devises wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 19A false witness that speaks lies, and he that sows discord among brethren.
Repent and turn while it is still day.

Romans 14:7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.
