Thank you for this beast, Midgie.

Thou shalt part it in pieces, and pour oil thereon:
it is a meat offering.

Leviticus 2:6

The Power of the Cross

failed.
Enabling Jesus to rise again, on the third day.

JESUS has always many who love His heavenly kingdom,
Many are called, but few are chosen.
Matthew 22:14

but few
who bear His cross.
And ye shall be left few in number,
whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude;
because thou wouldest not obey the voice of the LORD thy God.

Deuteronomy 28:62

He has many who desire consolation, but few
who care for trial.
For many shall come in My name, saying, I am Christ;
and shall deceive many.

Matthew 24:5

He finds many to share His table, but few to take
part in His fasting.
But thou, when thou fastest,
anoint thine head, and wash thy face;
That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret:
and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.

Matthew 6:17-18

All desire to be happy with Him; few wish to
suffer anything for Him.
Because your fathers have forsaken Me, saith the LORD,
and have walked after other gods,
and have served them, and have worshipped them,
and have forsaken Me, and have not kept My law;
And ye have done worse than your fathers;
for, behold, ye walk every one after the imagination of his evil heart,
that they may not hearken unto Me:
Therefore will I cast you out of this land into a land that ye know not,
neither ye nor your fathers;
and there shall ye serve other gods day and night;
where I will not shew you favour.

Jeremiah 16:11-13

 Many follow Him to the breaking of
bread, but few to the drinking of the chalice of His passion.
And if thy oblation be a meat offering baken in the fryingpan,
it shall be made of fine flour with oil.

Leviticus 2:7

Many
revere His miracles; few approach the shame of the cross.
Thou shalt keep My covenant therefore,
thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.

Genesis 17:9

 Many
love Him as long as they encounter no hardship; many praise and
bless Him as long as they receive some comfort from Him.
These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me ye might have peace.
In the world ye shall have tribulation:
but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

John 16:33

But if
Jesus hides Himself and leaves them for a while, they fall either
into complaints or into deep dejection.
Hearken unto Me, ye that know righteousness,
the people in whose heart is My law;
fear ye not the reproach of men,
neither be ye afraid of their revilings.

Isaiah 51:7

Those, on the contrary, who
love Him for His own sake and not for any comfort of their own,
bless Him in all trial and anguish of heart as well as in the bliss
of consolation.
If a man love Me, he will keep My words:
and My Father will love him,
and We will come unto him, and make Our abode with him.

John 14:23

Even if He should never give them consolation, yet
they would continue to praise Him and wish always to give Him
thanks.
Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them:
otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 6:1

What power there is in pure love for Jesus—love that is
free from all self-interest and self-love!
If ye love Me, keep My commandments.
And I will pray the Father,
and He shall give you another Comforter,
that He may abide with you for ever;

John 14:15-16

Thomas à Kempis,
Imitation of Christ
Take heed that ye be not deceived:
for many shall come in My name, saying, I am Christ;
and the time draweth near:
go ye not therefore after them.

Luke 21:8

How come you can't spot them, Midgie?
Even when they sign off, that they are an imitation.

I spot them,
by how they leave off any mention of God commandment.
And these don't yet know,
that those that have washed their robes, are out of tribulation.
Their lives are in heaven now.

The churches are full of the many deceivers who deceive the many.
And they say, they are in His name, and not in His law.

Bless Jesus Heart Throb show His truth, that you lie not about Him,
for the kingdom of heaven is at hand
`Paul

Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, 
which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, 
that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it:
That thou mightest fear the LORD thy God, 
to keep all His statutes and His commandments, which I command thee, 
thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, 
all the days of thy life; 
and that thy days may be prolonged.
Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; 
that it may be well with thee, 
and that ye may increase mightily, 
as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, 
in the land that floweth with milk and honey.
Deuteronomy 6:1-3
