Still Knocking

For now . . . one day the knocking will cease.

From You Version – nothing here to imply that YESHUA looks this way or another just that HE IS.

There’s a story here. Can you know it?

From You Version: This is not to insinuate this as an accurate rendering of the synagogue or the home of Titus.

Acts 18

Birthing

What if I said: “When you were born (birthed) into this world, you came by water and blood, would you concur?”  Think about it. I don’t need to spell it out here, do I? 

So, can you also concur that when we are born (birthed) into the Kingdom of GOD, it is by Water and Blood (applied and administered by HOLY SPIRIT)? 

What can I say, Birthing doesn’t happen without water and blood,  neither physical nor spiritual. 

This being true, instead of being squeamish about the Blood of YESHUA, could we not, from this day forward, glory in it?
Could we not, with unexplainable reverence and joy, rest easy in The Blood of Our Savior? Could we not unashamedly speak of His Blood to ourselves and others every day? 

Just asking.
So, since this truth is as bright as a new LED to me today, how could I not spiel it here with you all? 

The King James concurs: 1 John 5: For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth. For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.

There is no remission of sins without the shedding of Blood. See Hebrews 9: 20 saying, “THIS IS THE BLOOD OF THE COVENANT [that seals and ratifies the agreement] WHICH GOD ORDAINED and COMMANDED [me to deliver to] YOU.” 21 And in the same way he sprinkled both the tabernacle and all the containers and sacred utensils of worship with the blood. 22 In fact under the Law almost everything is cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness [neither release from sin and its guilt, nor cancellation of the merited punishment].  source 

Thank you for bearing with me — this is a long one, but I hope it has been good and worth the read to you!
