Not only have we gotten rid of all of our stones of judgement, but we now move into a new realm of living & relating with our neighbors
10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
Abundant -
4053. περισσός pĕrissŏs, per-is-sos´; from 4012 (in the sense of beyond); superabundant (in quantity) or superior (in quality); by impl. excessive; adv. (with 1537) violently; neut. (as noun) preeminence:—
We cannot have the abundant life without a healed life
Who is Your Neighbor
Who is Your Neighbor
KJV 190025 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? 26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou? 27 And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself. 28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. 29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour? 30 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. 31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. 32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side. 33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him, 34 And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee. 36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves? 37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
Who knows if this man was playing stupid games and so won stupid prizes? The Reason was not the point - HEALING WAS!“If you don’t heal what hurt you, you’ll bleed on those who didn’t cut you”But Jesus gives us the grace to be bled on
KJV 190018 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
And Then Jesus Renews us and restores us and renovates us.
KJV 19004 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, 5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; 6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
We don’t need this scripture any less today than we did on the day that we got born again.
We need a savior-renovation EVERYDAY
-Some people say, “I don’t need a shower today, I didn’t do much”I hate to tell you the truth, but - You still stink!
We should be doing more - Only 1 day is a day of Holy Rest
Can I give you a key to hunger & always feeling a NEED for a Savior - LIVE AT THE VERY EDGE OF YOUR CAPABILITY & ALWAYS BE AROUND THE DIRT.
Don’t let it stay on you and contaminate your soul. Wash it daily!!!
Are you willing to get into the blood and guts of life with people on the other side of the street from you?
It’s gonna be smelly and dirty, but you’ll get cleaned up in God’s presence & they will survive, thrive & begin to heal others.
