John's Digital Pictures Of Jesus: Night School.

JPEG. Group of Pictures/ John 3... NIGHT SCHOOL

Pay attention class.  Night school is now in session. Smile for the camera  Nick.
 
 John is taking a picture of true spiritual transformation in progress, as at night,  a guy named Nicodemus comes to the Teacher.  And he gets a life transforming -birth from above- education that seems to change the course of his life.  Actually JPEG. #3 is actually a series of digital class pictures...Picture this:

 
Credentials: In our day, Nick would have been the teach.
                      He is one of the great formal religious teachers
                       of his time... Sanhedrin leader and Pharisee. 
                       He is "Somebody."
 
Confession:  He believed Jesus to be a miracle working man of God.
 
Commanded: Picture this... Jesus commanded Nick that, in spite
                         of his regal robes, status and  position, Nick needed
                         something that Nick did not have; he needed grace
                         and truth.
                         He needed to be born from above or "born again."
 
Confusion:  Nick is pictured as being puzzled about something
                     the Rabbi thought/thinks is basic stuff.  So Jesus
                     painted some pictures of how this works.
  • Jesus gave him a picture of a physical illustration. John 3:5-7
  • Jesus gave him a picture of a natural illustration.  John 3:8
  • Jesus gave him a picture of a scriptural illustration. John 3:14-15 and Numbers 21:1-10.
Conclusion:  The last JPEGs.... John 3:16-21
  • A Picture Of God's Love as He gives up His Son.
  • A Picture of God's Love's purpose... salvation not condemnation.
  • A Picture of the failure in the class John 3:18b
  • A Picture of God lighting up the life of the one in darkness with His Salvation.
Okay... class is over.  Two or three years pass.  Jesus died on the cross, after being lifted up on it.What should be done with the body.  Two people knew exactly what to do.  One of those pictured was  a rich man named Joseph.  The other... well... it was Nick who came at night.  And he was putting his life on the line, but he helped bury Jesus that day.  I think it is reasonable to believe that Nick got the picture. I hope you save this picture to your life's album as well.
 
Go be blessed 2day
Especially 2day.

American & "Pride"

Image
 THE MEGA PROBLEM OF "PRIDE" Our country, and especially our leaders, have stolen a God Covenant Symbol-- THE RAINBOW-- which declares God's judgment for unholy living will never be accomplished through flood waters; however,  this doesn't mean God will NOT judge a nation,  or planet that is sin filled and full of pride.  We are living in a time that Jesus describes, in the Bible,  as "The Days of Noah." He prophesied of our day being like the generation that caused God to regret HE had ever made human beings.  Why? The answer is simple: HE had this regret because of "PRIDE." How 🤔 is pride demonstrated? 1. Pride shows itself when people worship the creature rather than THE Creator. 2 . Pride is exemplified when people become the idols, and mere human pseudo truth & rules for life are contrary to Almighty God's Law, which human beings use to govern life. 3. Pride is seen in our irreverence for God's name via the confession of our mouth

We Can Be So Much More.

Image
   We Can Be So Much More:  Let us learn about the powerful identity God the Father gives us, through our being IN Christ Jesus by the power of The Holy Spirit. Let us embrace our God given Eternal Inheritance.  ( Ephesians 1:3-14)  Let us get up, each morning and give ourselves up to God. (Romans 12:1-2.)  Let us wake up! And practice Gods practice of putting off the deeds of darkness, of being empowered to behave decently, like people who live in the day time. (Romans 13:11-14) Let us cloth our selves, in Jesus, by putting on the full armor of God each day! This will make us strong in the Lord and in His mighty power, and it will give us all we need to stand against the Devil's schemes. (Ephesians 6:10-20) Let us submit to God, and resist the Devil so he will have to flee from us. (James 4:7) Learn all we can about the enemy and know he has no authority over us. But in Christ we have God's resurrection power flowing in us and through us. In Jesus Name 🙏  SoJourner

W A T C H O U T ! ! ! JESUS TEACHING ON LEADERS

Image
  Jesus Rock Solid Teaching Regarding Picking Leaders Matthew 7:15-23      "Watch out for false prophets! They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves!  By their fruits you shall recognize them!  Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, and every bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does NOT bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but ONLY those who do the will of my Father in Heaven. Many will say to me on the day they give account of their lives, 'Lord, Lord' did we not prophesy in your name, and in you name drive out demons, and in your name perform many miracles?  Then I will tell them plainly, ' I never knew you! Away from me, you evil doers!'
