Jesus Christ, who is Son of Man and the Son of Righteousness (STORYTIME): Read and what's your view
People perish due to lack of knowledge means that they go to hell fire (fiery furnace) and lose Eternal life (Heaven/the Kingdom of God) out of ignorance. Thus, ignorance is not an excuse to God Almighty. The word of God is all about those who make Heaven (Kingdom of God) and those who do not make it to Heaven (Kingdom of God). Jesus Christ is "the Word made flesh that dwelt amongst us" (that is, Jesus Christ lived in His own human flesh amongst fellow human beings on this earth).
(1) Different families of different names exist in Heaven and on earth and each family gets the true family name from God, the Father. God, the Father is wealthy in glory and part of His enormous glory is the power for anyone to be strong in his or her inner self and this particular power can be given to us through His Spirit (God, the Holy Spirit). Through Faith, Jesus Christ (God, the Son) makes His home (that is, His dwelling place) in our hearts. We, as good Christians, are meant to be prayerfully rooted in love (know and understand love); and also be founded in love (be built on love) . The love of God in us (rooted & founded in love) helps us to know, experience, take part in, and understand the size and magnitude (that is, the length and breadth; and the width and height) of the love of Jesus Christ (God, the Son). The Love of Jesus Christ cannot be fully known. We, as good Christians, need to be filled with God's nature (that is Godliness); and not live by our human nature (that is, desires of the human flesh). Let all the glory be given to God, the Father in the church and in Jesus Christ (God, the Son) for all time (always, forever and ever) as His power keeps working in us as good Christians. This power that God, the Father gives us through His Holy Spirit that makes us strong in our inner self is the same power He uses to work miracles and wonders in our lives (that is, things we cannot think of and so, they are more than we can ever ask for).
NOTE THAT:
(A) THE POWER THAT GOD, THE HOLY SPIRIT GIVES US KNOWS WHAT WE NEED MORE THAN US.
(B) WE ALL HAVE AN INNER SELF THAT NEEDS STRENGTH AND GOD, THE FATHER CAN PROVIDE ALL THAT WE NEED SO THAT OUR INNER SELF CAN BE STRENGTHENED FOR THE WORK OF GOD IN ORDER TO BEAR WITNESS FOR JESUS CHRIST WHOLEHEARTEDLY.
(C) ALL GOOD CHRISTIANS ARE GOD'S PEOPLE.
According to Ephesians 3: 14-21
FOR THIS REASON I FALL ON MY KNEES BEFORE THE FATHER, FROM WHOM EVERY FAMILY IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH RECEIVES ITS TRUE NAME. I ASK GOD FROM THE WEALTH OF HIS GLORY TO GIVE YOU POWER THROUGH HIS SPIRIT TO BE STRONG IN YOUR INNER SELVES, I PRAY THAT CHRIST WILL MAKE HIS HOME IN YOUR HEARTS THROUGH FAITH. I PRAY THAT YOU MAY HAVE YOUR ROOTS AND FOUNDATION IN LOVE, SO THAT YOU, TOGETHER WITH ALL GOD'S PEOPLE, MAY HAVE THE POWER TO UNDERSTAND HOW BROAD AND LONG, HOW HIGH AND DEEP, IS CHRIST'S LOVE. YES, MAY YOU COME TO KNOW HIS LOVE - ALTHOUGH IT CAN NEVER BE FULLY KNOWN - AND SO BE COMPLETELY FILLED WITH THE VERY NATURE OF GOD. TO HIM WHO BY MEANS OF HIS POWER WORKING IN US IS ABLE TO DO SO MUCH MORE THAN WE CAN EVER ASK FOR, OR EVEN THINK OF: TO GOD BE THE GLORY IN THE CHURCH AND IN CHRIST JESUS FOR ALL TIME, FOREVER AND EVER! AMEN.
(2) Saul (before he became the well-known Paul of the Holy Bible) was a terrorist, murderer and persecutor against Christians (both male and female followers of the way of the Lord Jesus Christ) who violently threatens all Christians with death (that is, killings or murder). Saul was so desperate to persecute and eradicate Christians in Damascus that he went there through letters from the High priest that introduced him into the Damascus' Synagogues against all good Christians there. Jesus Christ is the Light (not darkness). Jesus Christ came as a great light that flashed round Saul (on his way to Damascus to arrest good Christians) which made him fall to the ground. Jesus Christ asked him, "SAUL, SAUL! WHY DO YOU PERSECUTE ME?" which means that anyone who threatens any good Christian (whether male or female good Christian) is threatening Jesus Christ(God, the Son). Anyone who is violent against any good Christian (whether male or female good Christian) is being violent against Jesus Christ (God, the Son). Anyone who persecutes any good Christian (whether male or female good Christian) is persecuting Jesus Christ (God, the Son). Thus, such a person who threatens, violates, terrorizes and persecutes good Christians must answer to Jesus Christ for his or her wrongdoings against good Christians and must surely do whatsoever Jesus Christ tells him/her to do by all means. The men who came with Saul also heard what Jesus Christ (God, the Son) said but they did not see Him with their eyes. Saul heard what Jesus Christ (God, the Son) said to Him and also saw Him so He got blind for three days throughout which he did not eat or drink anything. A good Christian who lived in Damascus called ANANIAS was visited by Jesus Christ (the Lord God, the Son) who instructed him to go to the house of Judas who lived in the area called "straight street" to ask for Saul (Saul from Tarsus) and heal him. Saul has been praying in blindness and total dry fasting for three days and has already seen ANANIAS in a vision lay hands on him to give him his sight back. Ananias of Damascus mentioned the crimes of Saul against good Christians (the early good Christians) in order to remind Jesus Christ of the evils that Saul did and to make sure that it was the same man He was asking Him to go and heal as he had been told terrible things about this terrorist and persecutor know as Saul from Tarsus. Saul's listed crimes are as follows:
(i) Saul did terrible things to Christians is Jerusalem (that is, all who worshipped Jesus Christ in Jerusalem).
(ii) Saul had come to Damascus with the authority of the chief priests in order to arrest all Christians in Damascus (that is, all who worshipped Jesus Christ in Damascus).
Jesus Christ listened to Ananias and assured him that Saul too will suffer for the sake of His name (Jesus Christ) and is now a called servant of His (that is, Jesus Christ's called servant). All that was required of Saul (who is now widely known by all as Paul) by Jesus Christ (God, the Son) is as listed below:
(i) Saul becomes a good Christian chosen by Jesus Christ Himself (must serve Jesus Christ that he has been persecuting everywhere in Jerusalem all the while).
(ii) Saul is to bear witness of Jesus Christ by spreading His name (Jesus Christ) to the following:
(a) Gentiles (b) Kings (c) The people of Israel.
Ananias told Saul that the one who appeared to him as a great light on his way to Damascus is called the Lord Jesus and He is the same person who sent him (Ananias) to give him the following things:
(I) FROM THE LAYING OF HANDS IN THE HOUSE OF JUDAS (AT THE STRAIGHT STREET OF DAMASCUS CITY):
(a) Saul got his sight back again (Saul could see again after what looked like a fish scale fell off his eyes).
(b) Saul got filled with the Holy Spirit (immediately Ananias laid his hands on Saul of Tarsus and prayed for him; he got his sight back and was filled with the Holy Spirit also).
(II) FROM THE BAPTISM WITH PHYSICAL WATER IN THE HOUSE OF JUDAS (AT THE STRAIGHT STREET OF DAMASCUS CITY):
Saul got baptized with water while standing after he got healed of blindness.
(III) FROM THE PHYSICAL FOOD IN THE HOUSE OF JUDAS (AT THE STRAIGHT STREET OF DAMASCUS CITY):
Saul's lack of eating food or drinking water (at least) for three days made him weak but he regained his strength after eating food given to him.
NOTE THAT:
(A) WE ALL HAVE AN OUTER SELF (WHICH IS OUR HUMAN FLESH/BODY) THAT NEEDS STRENGTH AND GOD, THE FATHER CAN PROVIDE THE FOOD THAT WE NEED SO THAT OUR BODY CAN BE STRENGTHENED FOR THE WORK OF GOD IN ORDER TO BEAR WITNESS FOR JESUS CHRIST WHOLEHEARTEDLY.
(B) ANYONE WHO STILL PERSECUTES CHRISTIANS SHOULD KNOW IT NOW THAT MANY TERRORISTS AND PERSECUTORS HAVE EXISTED LONG BEFORE THEM AND JESUS CHRIST STILL REMAINS THE SAME. JESUS CHRIST IS THE FIRST AND THE LAST. JESUS CHRIST IS THE BEGINNING AND THE END. YOU CANNOT STOP JESUS CHRIST.
(C) A PHYSICALLY BLIND PERSON CAN STILL SEE VISION BECAUSE WHAT HE SEES VISION WITH IS HIS OR HER INNERSELF (THAT IS, SPECIFICALLY INNER EYES ALSO CALLED SPIRITUAL EYES).
(D) LOGICALLY, THE JEWS WHO WERE LIKE SAUL BACK THEN PURSUED CHRISTIANS AWAY FROM SYNAGOGUES AS IT WAS NOT SAFE FOR THEM AND THE SPREAD OF THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST HAS TO CONTINUE.
(E) "JESUS CHRIST IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE."
(F) WHATSOEVER YOU DO TO A GOOD CHRISTIAN, YOU ARE DOING IT AGAINST JESUS CHRIST. WE, AS GOOD CHRISTIANS, ARE THE BROTHERS AND SISTERS OF JESUS CHRIST SO, WHATEVER IS DONE TO THE LEAST (THAT IS, LOWEST) OF THE BROTHERS AND SISTERS OF JESUS CHRIST, THAT YOU DO UNTO HIM (JESUS CHRIST).
(G) IN THIS BIBLE PASSAGE BELOW, "SO ANANIAS WENT, ENTERED THE HOUSE WHERE SAUL WAS AND PLACED HIS HANDS ON HIM" means that:
(i) SO ANANIAS WENT TO THE PLACE CALLED STRAIGHT STREET IN DAMASCUS.
(ii) THEN HE ENTERED THE HOUSE OF JUDAS WHERE THE PHYSICALLY BLIND SAUL OF TARSUS HAD BEEN STAYING FOR THREE DAYS WITHOUT EATING ANY FOOD OR DRINKING ANY LIQUID (EVEN WATER).
(iii) WHEN ANANIAS SAW THE PHYSICALLY BLIND SAUL OF TARSUS IN THE HOUSE OF JUDAS, HE PLACED HIS HANDS ON SAUL TO HEAL HIM OF HIS PHYSICAL BLINDNESS.
(H) SAUL BECAME BLIND PHYSICALLY, AND NOT SPIRITUALLY.
(I) THE APPARITION OF JESUS CHRIST TO SAUL OF TARSUS (THE TERRORIST, MURDERER, KILLER, PERSECUTOR) THAT CAUSED HIS BLINDNESS HAPPENED NEAR DAMASCUS.
According to Acts 9:1-19
IN THE MEANTIME SAUL KEPT UP HIS VIOLENT THREATS OF MURDER AGAINST THE FOLLOWERS OF THE LORD. HE WENT TO THE HIGH PRIEST AND ASKED FOR LETTERS OF INTRODUCTION TO THE SYNAGOGUES IN DAMASCUS, SO THAT IF HE SHOULD FIND THERE ANY FOLLOWERS OF THE OF THE WAY OF THE LORD, HE WOULD BE ABLE TO ARREST THEM, BOTH MEN AND WOMEN, AND BRING THEM BACK TO JERUSALEM. AS SAUL WAS COMING NEAR THE CITY OF DAMASCUS, SUDDENLY A LIGHT FROM THE SKY FLASHED ROUND HIM. HE FELL TO THE GROUND AND HEARD A VOICE SAYING TO HIM, "SAUL, SAUL! WHY DO YOU PERSECUTE ME? "WHO ARE YOU, LORD?" HE ASKED. "I AM JESUS, WHOM YOU PERSECUTE," THE VOICE SAID. "BUT GET UP AND GO INTO THE CITY, WHERE YOU WILL BE TOLD WHAT YOU MUST DO." THE MEN WHO WERE TRAVELLING WITH SAUL HAD STOPPED, NOT SAYING A WORD; THEY HEARD THE VOICE BUT COULD NOT SEE ANYONE. SAUL GOT UP FROM THE GROUND AND OPENED HIS EYES, BUT COULD NOT SEE A THING. SO THEY TOOK HIM BY THE HAND AND LED HIM INTO DAMASCUS. FOR THREE DAYS HE WAS NOT ABLE TO SEE, AND DURING THAT TIME HE DID NOT EAT OR DRINK ANYTHING. THERE WAS A BELIEVER IN DAMASCUS NAMED ANANIAS. HE HAD A VISION, IN WHICH THE LORD SAID TO HIM, "ANANIAS!" "HERE I AM, LORD," HE ANSWERED. THE LORD SAID TO HIM, "GET READY AND GO TO STRAIGHT STREET, AND AT THE HOUSE OF JUDAS ASK FOR A MAN FROM TARSUS NAMED SAUL. HE IS PRAYING, AND IN A VISION HE HAS SEEN A MAN NAMED ANANIAS COME IN AND PLACE HIS HANDS ON HIM SO THAT HE MIGHT SEE AGAIN." ANANIAS ANSWERED, "LORD, MANY PEOPLE HAVE TOLD ME ABOUT THIS MÀN AND ABOUT ALL THE TERRIBLE THINGS HE HAS DONE TO YOUR PEOPLE IN JERUSALEM. AND HE HAS COME TO DAMASCUS WITH AUTHORITY FROM THE CHIEF PRIESTS TO ARREST ALL WHO WORSHIP YOU." THE LORD SAID TO HIM, "GO, BECAUSE I HAVE CHOSEN HIM TO SERVE ME, TO MAKE MY NAME KNOWN TO GENTILES AND KINGS AND TO THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL. AND I MYSELF WILL SHOW HIM ALL THAT HE MUST SUFFER FOR MY SAKE." SO ANANIAS WENT, ENTERED THE HOUSE WHERE SAUL WAS AND PLACED HIS HANDS ON HIM. "BROTHER SAUL," HE SAID, "THE LORD HAS SENT ME - JESUS HIMSELF, WHO APPEARED TO YOU ON THE ROAD AS YOU WERE COMING HERE. HE SENT ME SO THAT YOU MIGHT SEE AGAIN AND BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT." AT ONCE SOMETHING LIKE FISH SCALES FELL FROM SAUL'S EYES, AND HE WAS ABLE TO SEE AGAIN. HE STOOD UP AND WAS BAPTIZED; AND AFTER HE HAD EATEN, HIS STRENGTH CAME BACK.
SAY THIS HOLY PRAYER (HOLY BIBLICAL-BASED PRAYER):
MY LORD AND MASTER JESUS CHRIST, COME AND MAKE MY HEART YOUR HOME. GOD, THE FATHER SEND YOUR HOLY SPIRIT TO ME AND MAKE YOUR GLORIOUS POWER WORK IN ME TO MAKE ME STRONG IN MY INNERSELF; AND ALSO WORK YOUR MIRACLES AND WONDERS IN ME. MY LORD AND MASTER JESUS CHRIST, PLEASE HELP ME TO KNOW THE SIZE AND MAGNITUDE OF YOUR LOVE BY LETTING YOUR LOVE LIVE IN ME. MY LORD AND MASTER JESUS CHRIST, KINDLY SHINE YOUR GREAT LIGHT ON ME ALWAYS TO CORRECT ME WHEN I AM GOING ASTRAY AND KEEP ME ON THE PATH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. ALL THESE AND MANY MORE I ASK FOR IN OUR LORD JESUS MIGHTY NAME I HAVE PRAYED. AMEN!!!!
