Good day. Today's video You Should... is on the topic of: Jesus Christ is the complete name that you should be confessing before men and God our Father. Jesus is the son of man; Christ is the Son of God. God made this same Jesus who was crucified, both Lord and Christ. There is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. There is no other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Philippians 2:5-11 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee "should" bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue "should" confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (KJV) Acts 4:10-12 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. (KJV) Unto you is is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God and you should be able to give the answer to the mystery of the gospel to any man who would ask of the hope within you and you should be able to give account unto our Father of his Son, for he may ask you, do you know my Son?. So, do you know Christ; whose son is he? Many know the man Jesus, but don't know the Son who was sent. God sent his word and healed us and delivered us from our destructions (Psalms 107:20). And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth (John 1:14). Without Christ, the power and wisdom of God, being confessed in, through, and by you, you can do nothing. If you confess Jesus only, you are leaving out the power and wisdom of God (1Corinthians 1:24) in your life and prayers. Your only hope of glory should be acknowledged as Christ in you. You should know...2 Timothy 2:19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. (KJV) Colossians 1:27-28 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: (KJV). You have been warned and taught in all wisdom; and now you should be confessing the complete name, the prescription that will make you whole and set you free, Jesus Christ. If not, you may be as one spoken of in Matthew 7:21-23 when you stand before the judgement seat of Christ, and hear the Lord say unto you "I never knew you, depart from me you worker of iniquity".

Today's video Clean Escape is on the topic of: Clean escape from the corruption that is in this world through lust and from them who live in error. When we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we are baptized with the Holy Ghost and with fire. We are now the temple of the living God, and we are clean and swept, purged from our sins and transgressions, and the worldly residue is burned up with unquenchable fire; for our God is a consuming fire. Old things are passed away, behold all things are become new. God delivered us from this present evil world and translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son, Christ Jesus our Lord. God sent his word (Christ) into our hearts and healed us and delivered us from our destructions. We have been given a new heart and a new mind to operate in the realm of the Spirit. And if we continue in his word, the word of God, we shall know the truth and the truth shall make us free. John 17:17 Sanctify (purify) them through thy truth: thy word is truth. (KJV) 1 Peter 1:17-23 (KJV) And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear: Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. Galatians 3:16 ...And to thy seed, which is Christ. (KJV) There are many false prophets in the world, antichrists (those who deny Christ), wolves in sheep's clothing, professing to know God but in works deny him; and they are the many who corrupt the word of God for money (the love of money is the root of all evil) or advantage. They are more focused on tithes and offerings that will sustain them, than they are for the upkeep of your spiritual temple, the temple of the living God, whom you are. And sad to say, but many are following their corrupt ways because their heart has become blinded by the god of this world, and they are no longer able to discern between good and evil because they have not taken the time to know the truth that set them free, and have become dependent on someone else to teach them instead of allowing the Holy Spirit of God to lead and guide them into all truth. And when you, yourself, become more focused on the cares of this life, the deceitfulness of riches, and lusts of other things you rob God in tithes and offerings, not the physical matters, but the spiritual upkeep of his temple which is his residence within you. You rob God the opportunity to help you and give you the strength to overcome whatever it may be that is hindering you, or harassing you, and distracting you from continuing in the faith and enduring unto the end and receive eternal life. Yes, we are in this world, and have to deal with everyday life, but we have the grace of God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ to help in time of need. He doesn't desire your money, he desires your whole heart, soul, and mind, and your time; so, take no thought for your life, and cast all of your care unto God and let him do the caring for you, and seek to please and serve him and worship him in spirit and in truth. You are clean escaped from this world through Jesus Christ, so brethren, stay clean, stay free, and don't omit spirit and truth. God bless and keep the faith.

Today's video Astonishing Doctrine is on the topic of: The Lord 's doctrine (the doctrine of Christ which he spoke and demonstrated was confirmed with signs following) caused astonishment (amazement) among the people and it is still doing the same thing within those who believe. Jesus Christ spoke the words that he heard the Father speak and did those things he had seen the Father do. The word of God is living and powerful, it is spirit, and it is truth, and it changes not; and the Spirit of truth that was in Jesus is in you as well. Colossians 1:27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: (KJV). The doctrine of Christ not only includes operating in all the spiritual blessings that we have been blessed with in the heavenlies in Christ, but it also involves dying to self (the cross of Christ), to your will, to your wants and desires, and submitting to the will of God walking in a newness of life. Remember, you are crucified with Christ: nevertheless you live, yet not you, but Christ lives in you; and the life which you now live in the flesh, you live by the faith of the Son of God who loved you and gave himself for you. The words that He speaks unto us they are spirit, and they are life! This is an astonishing doctrine and an astonishing life we have been given by Jesus Christ and there is no other way to give thanks unto God our Father, and unto our Lord Jesus Christ for what he did on our behalf but to serve him in sincerity and in truth; as well as speak the truth in love and in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that another's faith would not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God (1Corinthians 1:24, 1Corinthians 2:4-5). A man's life does not consist in the abundance of things which he possesses in this earthly realm, but it does consist in the doctrine of Christ, and the power of it, where all things are possible to those who believe; it is the grace of God. Many say the miracles, signs, and wonders ceased with the apostles, which is contrary to the word of God. In 1Corinthians 12:7 it says, "But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.", and you can read the rest of the chapter as well. The Lord also said in Mark 16:17-20 "And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They 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. So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.(KJV)" It is the Spirit that gives life, the flesh profits nothing. Brethren, let no man deceive you; let God be true and man the liar, including our own carnal thinking. 2 John 7-11 (KJV) For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son (Luke 10:22). If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

Today's video Safe and Sound is on the topic of: This study is on the word ""sound"". Psalm 119:80 Let my heart be sound (complete, whole, entire, without spot, perfect, sincere, undefiled, upright) in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed (KJV). Proverbs 14:30 A sound (health, healing, cure, deliverance, wholesome, yielding, medicine) heart is the life of the flesh: but envy the rottenness of the bones (KJV). Acts 4:10-12 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole (sound, healthy, well). This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation (deliverance, safety, health, rescue) in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved (to save, deliver, protect, preserve, be (make) whole) (KJV). Safe and sound in faith, in heart, in mind, in speech, in doctrine, in wisdom and understanding. It is only in Christ Jesus that we are able to operate in sound wisdom (substance, understanding) - the wisdom that comes from above that is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, easy to be intreated (persuasion, compliant), full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy; and in complete soundness (entire, whole) - his name through faith in his name has made us strong, and by this faith we are able to stand perfect and complete in all the will of God before God our Father, without faith it is impossible to please him, and men; in a sound mind (discipline, self-control) - for God has not given us the spirit of fear but of power, and of love and of a sound mind; in sound speech and doctrine (healthy, true (in doctrine), whole) - In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity, sound speech that cannot be condemned, that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of us; for the time will come when many will not endure sound doctrine, so let us hold fast the faithful word as we have been taught, that we may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers (those who speak against, or who dispute, refuse, contradict, deny), by speaking the truth in love. Salvation has given us a new life to live being led of the Spirit of Christ within us; it has given us a new heart, new ears, new eyes, a new tongue, a new language (that being the language of spirit and of truth John 4:23-24), and a new Shepherd, Jesus Christ, whose voice we follow and not a strangers; so old things are passed away behold all things are become new. It is only in the Spirit that we are able to come to know the language of God which speaks to the heart and hear the voice (sound) of our Shepherd leading us in safety, and of God our Father to understand his correction and instruction in righteousness to overcome the world and stand before the judgement seat of Christ in righteousness and true holiness. Genesis 3:8 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day... (KJV). Listen, do you hear his voice; the still small voice of instruction and comfort, or as a trumpet of warning or correction, speaking to your heart? Give heed to his voice dear brethren in Christ, for it is salvation.

Have a blessed and prosperous day in Christ Jesus our Lord. Good day. Today's video My Redeemer is on the topic of: The Lord Jesus Christ my redeemer, your redeemer, our redeemer. Jesus Christ paid the price with his life for our sins, (for we were carnal, sold under sin), not only ours but the sins of the whole world. God is no respecter of persons; John 3:16-17 God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that "whosoever" believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved (KJV). So you see that by grace (grace and truth came by Jesus Christ, the Son), we are saved through faith; God gave his Son, his grace and truth, Jesus Christ, who died for all, and those who have accepted him as their Lord and Savior, he has redeemed from a life of sin and bondage to the god of this world, satan. We are bought (redeemed = a ransom, a price paid for slaves, to purchase) with a price, and we are not our own, we are the Lord's purchased possession, and what a price he paid for each and every one of us, so let us not be the servants of men. For the riches of this world cannot redeem men and neither can men redeem men. Jesus Christ said I am the resurrection and the life, and I am the way, the truth, and the life, and no man can come to the Father but by me; so, whether we live therefore or we die, we are the Lord's, he redeemed us, not men. 1 Peter 1:18-21 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. (KJV) This is how we were purchased, not with tithing 10 percent of our money, for we cannot buy our way into heaven. Our salvation by, through, and in Jesus Christ is a free gift and we freely have access to the riches of His grace, the true riches of wisdom and knowledge. I am dead, purchased by the precious blood of Christ, and my life is hid with Christ in God; my redeemer is Jesus Christ, the King of kings and Lord of lords. We pray that you also know Him as your Redeemer, and you are His purchased possession unto eternal life. Remember, we must die to live. God bless and keep the faith.

Have a blessed and prosperous day in Christ Jesus our Lord. Good day. Today's video King of kings is on the topic of: Jesus Christ, the King of kings and Lord of lords. His kingdom is not of this world. When we accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, God translated us into the kingdom of His dear Son, and our citizenship is now in heaven, where God raised us up and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus, who is seated at His right hand. In the Old Testament Israel rejected God's anointed judge and prophet Samuel, thus rejecting God, and they demanded a king be set over them that they may be like all the other nations, and that their king would judge them, and go out before them, and fight their battles. Today, many Christians are doing the same; they have rejected God's anointed judge and prophet, King of kings and Lord of lords, His Son Jesus Christ, and have set over themselves unknowingly due to their own ignorance concerning God and his plan of salvation through his Son, their own appointed false judges and prophets, kings and lords in the form of ministers, pastors, teachers, priests, etc. to reign over them and fight their battles for them, and to lay blame on, who in turn bring them into bondage laying heavy burdens that they are not able to bear, and they love to have it so (Read what Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 and 19-20). Many rely more on what men say about the scriptures instead of going to the source of all truth, wisdom and knowledge, the King of kings and Lord of lords who has overcome the world. The Lord Jesus Christ said "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light" (Matthew 11:28-30); thus, the simplicity of salvation is in him. Do you know the King of kings, the Lord of lords? Is He truly your King and Lord? Who do you want to reign over you, to judge you, to teach you, to go before you, to fight your battles for you? Men or God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ? Choose you this day who you will serve! God bless and keep the faith.

Have a blessed and prosperous day in Christ Jesus our Lord. Good day. Today's video On Purpose is on the topic of: Does your life have meaning, purpose? Ecclesiastes 3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven: (KJV) Your life was planned out by God before the foundation of the world with the eternal purpose which he proposed in his Son Christ Jesus our Lord in whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him, that your joy might be full, and you might have life and life more abundantly in his Son. When you came to the Lord you came into agreement with his plan of salvation which gives your life meaning, which has purpose. Jesus Christ gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father; he came down from heaven not to do his own will but the will of our Father who is in heaven, and to be a witness unto the truth; and everyone that is of the truth hears his voice, and testifies of his eternal purpose which he in turn has purposed within you. Our life has purpose, and that purpose is found in Christ, so let his will be done and not our own will (don't be self-willed, arrogant), but allow the Lord to lead and guide you into all truth in knowing what your purpose, your place in the body of Christ is, for there you will have the peace of God ruling in your heart, where fear has no place, and where he always causes us to triumph in Christ and overcome this present evil world as he did. So Church, God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ have a blueprint, a GPS guidance system, planned out in advance for each of us in the body of Christ each day, and it's a lot better than what we can come up with, so seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness to find out his purpose for your life today, because we only have now faith to walk in; yesterday is gone and tomorrow is not here yet, and there is enough evil to have to deal with today; so put on and keep on the whole armor of God, and go live a life which has purpose and do things on purpose with thanksgiving giving praise, honor, and glory to God our Father for the abundant eternal life which he has purposed for us in his Son, Christ Jesus our Lord. God bless and keep the faith.

Have a blessed and prosperous day in Christ Jesus our Lord. Good day. Today's video A Lasting Impression is on the topic of: Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God that He may exalt you in due time. The first (the old man, old nature) shall be last and the last (the new man, new creation) shall be first in the kingdom of God. The Lord left us an example of putting ourselves (our wants and desires) last and putting the kingdom of God and His righteousness and others first. We are to wash another's feet and not our own; in other words ministering unto others the glorious gospel of Christ, and not seeking to be ministered unto, but to lay down our lives for our brethren in the body of Christ; it is better to give than to receive; and when you give and it shall be given unto you more abundantly in the Spirit. When you put others first do it whole heartedly as unto the Lord, and not to be seen or be highly esteemed among men, for that which is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God. Have you found your place in the body of Christ, where God has placed you, and not men? God looks on the heart of men and not by the works that they do or the position they hold in a congregation. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God (Matthew 5:8). The last place, or thing on our list may be the first that our Father has chosen for us, so remain humble and let Him exalt you in the place within the body of Christ as He sees fit. Wherever we are in the body of Christ, we are to live a life of humility as a servant of Christ, for the benefit of the kingdom of God, our brethren in Christ, and others who may believe through the word of God spoken unto them through us, whether in word or in deed, and always in truth, as our Lord Jesus Christ left us as an example. Owe no man anything but to love; and greater love is to lay down your life for the brethren. It is not about "I" anymore. Brethren, a lasting impression means to put others first; for this will be well pleasing in the sight of God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ. Blessed are the meek (humble) for they shall inherit the earth (Matthew 5:5). God bless and stay humble.

Have a blessed and prosperous day in Christ Jesus our Lord. Good day. Today's video Full Term is on the topic of: There is a new life planted within you, the seed which is the word of God, the seed which is Christ, whom you have been impregnated with when you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and should be brought to maturity, to full term (he who endures unto the end shall be saved); like a women with a child in the womb. We are to be fruitful and multiply spiritually; what fruit? the fruit of the Spirit, and we are required to bear this fruit unto maturity within us, as we will be held accountable before God for the health and well-being of our spirit man and the example that we live walking in the Spirit; just as a woman will be held accountable for the life of a child (in the womb or otherwise), for all souls are God's. And without Christ we cannot bring forth fruit to perfection. Our spirit man will either be healthy, whole, and complete or it will be weak, sickly, and ready to sleep (die spiritually). He came that we might have life and have it more abundantly. The thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy that new life that you have been impregnated with. Watch and pray always, casting all you care unto God, who (like a doctor cares for a pregnant woman through prenatal exams) does the caring for you, because the enemy like a roaring lion is always walking about seeking whom he may devour; and he looks for the weak and sickly. The strong continue to bring forth fruit unto perfection, having their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. The weak and sickly are unable to fully protect the word of God that was sown in their hearts, the impregnated seed, because they have allowed the cares of this life, the deceitfulness of riches, and lusts of other things to enter in and choke the word (abort the new life within them). Remember God looks within the heart of man, like a sonogram (ultrasound) done on a woman with a child in the womb to see the health and growth of the child, to see if the seed is good, acceptable, perfectly healthy, with fruit being brought to maturity, or if it is unhealthy, being choked, dead or aborted. You have been given a new life by Jesus Christ; you need to show up for your prenatal exams with God on a daily basis and nurture this new life within you growing up into Christ in all things; so continue walking in the newness of this life and bring forth fruit to perfection; otherwise you may end up weak, sickly, and be as the many who sleep, who will stand before God and have to give account of that new life that they neglected unto death, and will forever be separated from a life with God and our Lord Jesus Christ for eternity.

Have a blessed and prosperous day in Christ Jesus our Lord. Good day. Today's video A Perfect Example is on the topic of: Our Lord Jesus Christ left a perfect example for us to follow. Are you growing up into Christ in all things? Are you perfecting your walk in all the will of God? To be a perfect example as our Lord, we should be studying to show ourselves approved unto God (seeking first his kingdom and righteousness), being a workman that needs not to be ashamed rightly dividing the word of truth; becoming grounded and settled in the word of God, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel; putting away childish things (works of the flesh, the traditions and doctrines of men), not being tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine and come to the knowledge of the Son of God, Christ in us the hope of glory; being renewed in the spirit of our mind (let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who being in the form of God, thought in not robbery to be in agreement with God, but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross), we have the mind of Christ; being a living sacrifice, dying daily to our wants and desires looking on the needs of others, being a servant, and not conforming to this world and its ways, but renewing our mind on things above where Christ sits at the right hand of God, that we may prove what is that good, acceptable, and perfect will of God; and always abounding in the work of the Lord, ready to give an answer to anyone who asks of the reason of the hope that is within us. We are to be an example of the believers. What kind of example are you today; are you moving forward unto maturity? We are to be perfect (maturity, complete), even as our Father which is in heaven is perfect. So, brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might, for without Christ you can do nothing. Continue in the faith, grounded and settled, and let patience (endurance, constancy) have its perfect (complete) work, that you may be perfect and entire (whole, perfectly sound) lacking nothing. And this also we wish, even your perfection (thoroughly equipped, prepared, restored). Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you. May you be a perfect example of the believers and continue to stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.
