Joe Hill If you have accepted Jesus, raised your hand during service, responded to an alter call and accepted Jesus into your heart, accepted the reasonable nature of someone else dying in your place to satisfy the judgment of God, or in any other modern techniques to extract profession from people, then the odds are the Jesus you are following is a faint shadow of the Lord of glory.  There is a better way, the truth of the Gospel is that Jesus has been given authority over all flesh, and he exercises that authority to the extent that he is believed.  When Jesus is in fact Lord in a man that Lordship governs the man including his own flesh, and the actions of that man reflects the character of the Jesus who is Lord.  Jesus is Lord, Jesus is not a sacrifice to be accepted, nor does he exist for the bidding or comfort of men, He is Lord, he rules in men for the glory of God, he rules in men to reconcile a world to God, he rules in men so that the righteousness of God may be proclaimed and seen on this earth.  He rules with love and for the sake of love.  In Him the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts, not just the love of God for us but the love of God in us for others.

In this world you have many tribulations, but fear not for I have overcome the world.

Jesus has overcome the world, overcome Satan and his lies, overcome rulers and principalities and authorities, overcome even our human nature and flesh, this is not true for us only after we die.  This is true for us as we live in this world, as we live only for the glory of God.

Comments are welcome on this, an incomplete thought.

This site, much like my life is dedicated to see GOD glorified through Jesus in this lost world. The difficulty enters in when men try to figure out how to glorify GOD. It seems to me that the man living in Romans chapter 8 typifies the glory of GOD and the man living in Romans chapter 7 typifies the man trying to glorify GOD. I for one would rather just do it than continue try and fail.

He who knew no sin became sin for us that we may become the righteousness of GOD.

How is it we become the righteousness of GOD?  it can't be by works of the law or there would be reason to boast. It must be by believing on Jesus but many of us have believed then looked around and found that we were anything but the righteousness of GOD. If the justification of GOD does not work out to our actual righteousness then GOD must Himself be evil.

There are two ways to submit content to be viewed on this site the first is to simply comment on an article by clicking the comment at the bottom of each article type in your name and email and the little spam blocker field (if you can't read the letters click on them and they will change) then click send. After review your comment should be published and keep the conversations going.

The second way is to create an account, then log in using the log-in you just created, that puts you into the Author area of this site and you can then write articles using the submit articles button. After review your article may be published (at my discretion) then it will be available for others to comment on.

You can even upload images to your submission though they do come out full size so you might want to crop them first.

There is no spellchecker on here yet so if you are like me you might want to type in another program and cut and paste.

Update I found an editor with a spellchecker called JCE and now it works!
