Sin is forever but it can be forgiven thru the blood of Christ otherwise it leads to an eternity of darkness and separation from God and all goodness.

Titus 2:15 King James Version (KJV)

¹⁵These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.

Titus 2:15

JuliaSmith 15 These things speak, and beseech, and reprove with all order. Let none despise thee.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.

15 We are to teach the word of God and use it to correct each other and use the word to encourage it other and not let people look down on us because of where we are at. Not every Christian is called to teach but each Christian should be reading the word they should able to explain what God showed them thru scripture maybe not to teach but simply to help others or encourage others. The greatest form of teaching the word is living it in our lives. Living for the Lord should be an encouragement to other believers and should be light to the world.

Mark 5:40; Job 13:1-3

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvkl8vWsN6s

Mark 5:40 King James Version (KJV)

⁴⁰And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.

Mark 5:40 Contemporary English Version (CEV)

⁴⁰But the people laughed at him.

After Jesus had sent them all out of the house, he took the girl’s father and mother and his three disciples and went to where she was.

These are my thoughts.

We are still to serve the Lord even when people laugh and ridicule us.

Job 13:1-3 King James Version (KJV)

13 Lo, mine eye hath seen all this, mine ear hath heard and understood it.

2 What ye know, the same do I know also: I am not inferior unto you.

3 Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God.

Job 13:1-3 Good News Translation (GNT)

13 1-2 Everything you say, I have heard before.

I understand it all; I know as much as you do.

I'm not your inferior.

3 But my dispute is with God, not you;

I want to argue my case with him.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.

1 We may hear things over and over again sometimes we may need to hear things over and over again but sometimes hurt is bigger then hearing that and that is where Job was at.

2 Job truly knew more then they did because he had so much grief but hadn’t yet turned against God or admitted he was sinful. When we try to help people we should not try to exalt ourselves and put them down but the most effective way is to be on their level or below them.

3 Job was being to bold hear, we without Jesus don’t have a case before God. Job had faith and didn’t have any sin that wasn’t forgiven but Job didn’t have any standing before God.

Jude 12; Titus 2:11-14

Jude 12 King James Version (KJV)

¹²These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;

Jude 12 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

¹²These are the ones feasting together without reverence, hidden reefs at your love feasts, caring for themselves, waterless clouds carried away by winds, late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, uprooted,

These are my thoughts.

We don’t want to be like this but we want to be fruitful under the Lord.

Titus 2:11-14 King James Version (KJV)

¹¹For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,

¹²Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

¹³Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;

¹⁴Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

Titus 2:11-14

JuliaSmith 11 For the grace of God who saves, was manifested to all men, 12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and eager worldly desires, we should live discreetly, and justly, and religiously, in the time now; 13 Expecting the blessed hope, and apppearance of the glory of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; 14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify to himself a distinguished people. zealous of good works.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.

11 No one will have an excuse for rejecting God’s grace because it is open to all to receive. Grace came thru Jesus Christ.

12 We are to fight the flesh and live set apart or holy for the Lord. We are to give up unholy desires and instead strive to be like Jesus.

13 We should be doing this until that blessed day that we see is Savior face to face. There is no retirement in the Christian walk.

14 Christ saves us from our sin but also bring us out of our sin if we let Him lead us, He will lead us to things that honor the Father.

Mark 5:39; Job 12:24-25

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjpwz6puWhQ&t=7s

Mark 5:39 King James Version (KJV)

39 And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.

Mark 5:39 Contemporary English Version (CEV)

39 Then Jesus went inside and said to them, “Why are you crying and carrying on like this? The child isn’t dead. She is just asleep.”

These are my thoughts.

There reactions were normal but with Jesus we are to react differently thru faith.

Job 12:24-25 King James Version (KJV)

²⁴He taketh away the heart of the chief of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way.

²⁵They grope in the dark without light, and he maketh them to stagger like a drunken man.

Job 12:24-25 Good News Translation (GNT)

²⁴He makes their leaders foolish
and lets them wander confused and lost;
²⁵ they grope in the dark and stagger like drunkards.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.

24 God can make leaders into fools, He can bring them down and cause them to be humbled, he made the king of Babel wander around eating grass, no longer acting like a man.

25 Walking around in the dark often times causing stumbling and bumping into things, darkness in scripture is symbolic of rejecting Jesus and living for this world. We are not meant to walk in the dark but walk with God thru Jesus.

Mark 5:38; Job 12:21-23

Mark 5:38 King James Version (KJV) 38 And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed. Mark 5:38 Contemporary English Version (CEV) 38 They went home with Jairus and saw the people crying and making a lot of noise. Contemporary English Version (CEV) Copyright © 1995 by American Bible Society These are my thoughts. Sometimes we have to go to do what we are suppose to do even with a lot of noise. Job 12:21-23 King James Version (KJV) 21 He poureth contempt upon princes, and weakeneth the strength of the mighty. 22 He discovereth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth out to light the shadow of death. 23 He increaseth the nations, and destroyeth them: he enlargeth the nations, and straiteneth them again. Job 12:21-23 Good News Translation (GNT) 21 He disgraces those in power and puts an end to the strength of rulers. 22 He sends light to places dark as death. 23 He makes nations strong and great, but then he defeats and destroys them. Good News Translation (GNT) Copyright © 1992 by American Bible Society These are my thoughts, please share yours. 21 God can humble leaders and rulers. God has more power then any ruler or leader. 22 God sent light, His name is Jesus. He is the light of the world but this is also a reference to the sun which Job is speaking of here. Light bring life because often times in dark places there is death because without light there is no life. 23 God can bring nations and allow nations to rise but He can also knock down or let nations fall.
