What is a Holy thing? Let us look at the Greek translated word! The word “Hagios”, Strong’s # 40, means to be set apart, sanctified, consecrated and totally devoted to the service of Deity! One possessing the very nature of God! Sharing God’s purity and abstaining from earth’s defilement! Separated morally from all sin! Inherent to this position is power over all sin, death and hell! The angel Gabriel told Mary he shall be called the Son of God! Jesus was conceived by God! The offspring of God with the purpose of God inherent to his nature! He came to earth with the purpose of redeeming men from their sin! He came to defeat the rebellion of men against God! He came to defeat Satan and his destructive control over men! He came to save the very men that persecuted him while on earth and took him to the Cross! Jesus did not come as a political leader to raise up an army to persecute those who disagreed with him but became the sacrifice needed to those who sought to kill him! He came with love sacrificially giving his life in place of ours for the judgment of our sin! He took our judgment upon himself and this is why the Father has given him the position to judge the living and the dead! God took on flesh to defeat the flesh that controls the destiny of men to destruction! Men are born the enemies of God but this Son of God born into the earth from heaven to redeem or purchase back men from their sin by sacrificing himself for their sin! The perfect Lamb of God! Pure and Holy with power over Satan! Demons tremble at the mention of his name! No mortal could defeat Satan! It took God himself to achieve this! What a special child is this! Mary could not comprehend all this but she knew she had to protect this child from Herod and the Roman army! Think of the love of God! This all took place before you were ever born yet this was done just for you! Before you grand parents, great grand parents were ever born! Jesus said we must be born again! He has made this second birth possible by his first birth here on earth! He can give you a new life in the new year if you ask him to do this for you! Start the new year with Christ and end the year with Christ! Happy New Year! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Accursed Thing? Joshua 7:1
What is the accursed thing? Is it something I had for breakfast? My wife’s cooking? Fast food? It will help you to go back to the Hebrew root word to help understand this. I would suggest you get a Hebrew-Greek study Bible if you want to dig deeper in the Scriptures! According to the Hebrew word this is something devoted to religious use. Some consider this word to have a contradictory element because it can also be something devoted to destruction! So something accursed is either set apart for destruction or set apart to be devoted to God! During the conquest of Canaan the Jews set aside the spoils of war for religious use. That is the silver, gold, bronze, iron and the animals were devoted to religious use. The idea here is since God has given us the victory in war the spoils belong to Him! Much like the tithe and offering today is given to God because He has given us the victory over sin, hell and death! So after crossing the Jordan River in a miraculous way they defeated the first city Jericho in another miraculous way! A man named Achan from the tribe of Judah and his family got greedy and stashed some of the gold from the spoils in his tent! God got angry and in the next battle for the city of Ai Israel got defeated. Joshua went to the Lord and the Lord revealed to him there was sin in the camp! Joshua went through every tent and found the offender! Achan and his family were stoned, burned and buried in the Valley of Achor! Is your life set apart for God or for destruction? What you do with Jesus Christ will answer that question? If you accept Jesus Christ your life will be set apart for Him! If you reject Christ then your life is set apart for destruction! The choice is yours! God will not send you to Heaven or Hell without you deciding! He will not force His will on you! Love demands a choice! So it is up to you! Victory or defeat? Heaven or hell? Light or darkness? Wealth or poverty? Health or sickness? You choose! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

ObamaCare Trick or Treat?
What does the word Halloween mean? The word means a Holy person or Saint. It started as a Christian celebration of the departed Saints. It is followed up the next day called, “All Saints Day.” The problem is over time the event has moved from celebrating life to celebrating death! As Christians we celebrate life and not death! Jesus conquered death, hell and the grave for us! So we celebrate Jesus and not Satan who is the author of death. You have to keep the main thing the main thing! Thankyou. James and Hamsa Sasse.

Denver City Council stops good citizen award to this Denver Buisness who has served Denver over 50 years! Siding with Obama instead of doing the right thing contradicts all that America stands for?
