Good morning. So how can
we be safe from all of these deceivers? Let that abide in you which you heard
from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you
will also abide in the Son and in the Father. Too many people are trying to obtain
new knowledge. There is only one true knowledge – Jesus. That does not mean
that you cannot learn some things that you did not realize were in the Bible.
Remember all of that about Gnosticism. Knowledge was important, not
relationship with Jesus. And this is the promise which He Himself made to us:
eternal life. These things I have written to you concerning those who are
trying to deceive you. Sadly there are people today who are trying to deceive
us. Now some of them have been deceived themselves and actually believe that
what they are saying is true. They think they are trying to lead you into the
truth when it is actually deception. As for you, the anointing which you
received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but
as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie,
and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him. The Holy Spirit indwelling us
is what will let us know the things that are true and those that are not. We
have to look inwardly to determine what is true or not. That is not something
that comes naturally; we have to be trained to do it. Father thank You that the
reader knows what is true and what is not. He/she is never deceived; he/she
only follows Your word.
Unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God
Good morning. While Jesus was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing. Jesus was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men. Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. It doesn’t say, but I assume it is still during this time of the Passover. This man came to Jesus by night. Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do the signs that You do unless God is with him. It just said that the people believed in His name because of the signs He was doing; yet it does not say what those signs were. Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. That is why unbelievers cannot tell what is of the kingdom of God and what is not – they’re not born again. Nicodemus doesn’t have a clue. How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born, can he? Unless one is born of water and the Spirit ...
