Your Choice! Jude 1:21

“[Keep] yourselves in the [love] of God, looking for the [mercy] of our Lord Jesus Christ unto [eternal] [life].” Commentary: Let us look at these five Greek words with the purpose of a greater understanding and appreciation of his Word! In the beginning was the Word! To ‘keep’ means to observe the Commandments and ordinances laws of the Lord! You must observe them while living on earth! No gays, transgenders, abortions, drugs, crimes, violence, rioters in heaven! No open borders in heaven! God’s laws and love has borders! To keep means to watch over them and preserve them and protect them! Do not remove them from public schools! Remove Crosses and the Ten Commandments from court houses and monuments! Do your political candidates observe them? Our next word ‘agape’ is a word never used in classical Greek! It is specifically reserved for revealed religion! This love is the highest form of love which requires sacrifices for the one loved! For God so loved the world that he gave….. This love is given for not what one wants but what one needs! The word ‘mercy’ means an immediate remedy to the consequences of sin! The forgiveness of sin and the removal of guilt! Jesus took your sin and guilt to a painful Cross! The word ‘eternal’ is something God rewards holding for the living and the dead not affected by the limitations of time! The resurrection of the dead is a demonstration of eternal! The word ‘life’ used here is the principle of life in the spirit and the soul as distinguished from the physical life. Flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God! Jesus said you must be born again! Our highest blessedness is found in relation to Jesus Christ! Your blessedness or destruction all hinges on what you do with Jesus Christ! Accept or reject him affects your today and for all of eternity! James & Hamsa Sasse. IndiaJesusLovesYou.com

Watchman on the Wall! Jude 1:25

“To the only [wise] God our [Savior], be glory and majesty, [dominion] and [power], both now and [ever]. Amen. Commentary: So let us look at a few Greek words and gain a little perspective on the importance of this verse for today and forever! So the word ‘wise’ means something a little different than we might think! Who is wiser than God? Than Christ? The word used here means observing his creation from the vantage point high up like a watchman on a wall! That is he does not miss anything! He observes men their motives and actions! He sees everything! Nothing escapes his eyes! Even the thoughts of men cannot hide from him! He observes his creation because he created it! He owns it! It is his! He paid for it on a Cross! He observes men to see if they live according to his established will and purpose for their lives! Do they glorify God or reject him? Is God able to establish his purpose in them and through them? Or do they resist him? Dominion used here means strength and force with manifold power! Power with the capability to do anything! No human limitations! The word ‘ever’ means the duration and continuation of time! Amen means ‘so be it’. If you were God and created all that there is would you not be a watchman on the wall? So concerned about the direction of man that you had to sacrifice yourself for them? True love is sacrificial! Not what I can get but what I can give! Jesus demonstrated his care for us on a Cross! A shepherd that gave his life for the sheep! He demonstrated his love for us! He has the authority and power to either condemn you to hell or send you to heaven to be with him forever! However you give him this power determined by your choice either to receive him as Savior or reject him! Jesus separates the sheep from the wolves! They are separated while we are living our lives right down here on earth! He will not put the wolves and the sheep in the same pasture! Jesus is the watchmen looking for you!
