Lets Go Fishing

Posted on by

People.
People everywhere are too busy with the mundane to give attention to The Supreme – The Creator GOD.

I see people so in love with this world and all that glitters that they are blind to the Beauty of YESHUA, JESUS The CHRIST.
So blind, so dazzled, that IF they see any Jesus at all, it is the false Jesus that has no firmness, no power to transform them from darkness to Light.

People everywhere, breathing, walking, but dead – dead in their sins.

And then there is this.
People.
How can people who say they know and love The Messiah be so flippant and nonchalant about people acting out abominations day after day? Are they walking dead as well while professing they have been made alive?

How can I say that you may ask?
By this dear one.

How can a soul who has been delivered from sin, death, hell, and the grave be so uncommitted as to watch another person sin away their temporal opportunity to circumvent hell, while they say that’s their choice – They have the right to live however they choose – It’s none of my business?

Where’s the burden for the lost?
Where’s the love that is willing to sacrifice comfort to pull another human being from a burning building and CERTAIN death?

ALL who have been redeemed – that is saved from sin, death, hell, and the grave did not our Savior say we would be fishers of men (mankind)?887175_orig
Do not real fishermen take fishing seriously?
Do they not gather all their equipment, go to the lake, river, creek, or ocean, and cast a line?
Do they not wait patiently?
Do they not coax that fish with all they got?
Do they not yearn to catch a fish?

Get the picture?

I have to come to this conclusion people who do not care what other people do and how they live, desperately need to find out if they themselves have been caught by The Savior?

So I must ask whether there is any movement in your being that is telling you, you need to be delivered from your sins?

If there is I urge you to ask GOD for mercy, get a Bible, and start reading NOW the Gospel according to JOHN.  Here let me give you a LINK to get started.

And to all who are certain of your Redeemer and your redemption, will you not at every prompting of Holy Spirit, cast some Bread on the water?

Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days. (KJV) Ecclesiastes 11:1

11 so is my word that goes out from my mouth —
it will not return to me unfulfilled;
but it will accomplish what I intend,
and cause to succeed what I sent it to do.”  source 
(as always read the whole chapter)

One more thing. See this picture?
What do you see?
J and I are curious. fishing-for-men

Snap it Up

Posted on by

img_8038I’m not responding at the venue I found this but I am compelled to address it.

Submission has become as bitter as bile in the mouths of those who do not understand this God-given gift and sadly for these there is no vision for unwrapping or embracing this holy privilege. It is to them an undesirable mystery.
I hope I can help.

For the woman of GOD, submission is non-negotiable.
GOD expects it of us. Actually, He commands it.
And we cannot do well as daughter to Him, wife to husband, and mother to children, without Biblical submission.   And this is the whole of the bitterness to the women of the world and to many women of professing Christian faith.  It’s Biblical and it boils down to TRUST – not a lack of trust in the husband but of GOD Himself. 

The means and principles of living submission deserve a lengthy unfolding.

I’m not here to do that today.

I am here to plant a seed hoping it will take root and cause every woman who happens upon this page to reap a holy harvest as she digs deep and long into Scripture meeting the GOD who loves her on every page.
Additionally, there are some well-researched resources available. I am in the process of reading one of those resources now. Here check it out. Link

I also read this one. 51AM5FAXDRL._SX309_BO1,204,203,200_

And because it is out of print, it’s costly for a book so small but so HUGE.
I do advise keeping it in mind and should you find a copy in your budget, snap it up.

Let me close with this.
Biblical Submission is first Vertical and then horizontal – GOD is the Author and Finisher of submission both for the wife and the husband.

And yes submission is for the husband too.
Did you know that?
Do you know to whom he is commanded to submit?
By the Way, it’s not the wife — Go WAY Higher!

I hope you will start a detailed study to discover the means and principles of Biblical Submission right away.

Love, Kathie

Wonder No More

Posted on by

John 6 

Do you ever wonder if JESUS would turn you away?
Do you ever wonder if He will forgive you?
Do you ever wonder if He will really, truly, save YOU?

Well, wonder no more!

37 Everyone the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will certainly not turn away. source 

Of course, there are a couple of conditions.

1. The Father must give you the invitation to come to Him. He does this by Holy Spirit convicting you of your sin and your need to repent to be forgiven and He confirms to you that JESUS is indeed the Messiah – Savior of the World, including YOU.
This chapter of John 6 makes it clear that it is the will of the Father for you, for all of us, to TRUST JESUS. I encourage you to read the chapter. A link is provided herein.

Condition 2 is that you accept His invitation and follow through by repenting of your sinful state and by trusting His Son, JESUS, forever and ever Amen. 

Are you convicted? Are you convinced? Then by all means say YES,  I Do before the invitation is withdrawn.

And then YOU will have to wonder — NO MORE.

There is much more in John 6 that I wondered about.  Like how did Andrew know a young lad had 5 loaves of barley bread and 2 fish?
Perhaps that’s silly or trivial but I did wonder — just being honest here.

59 He said these things while he was teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum. source

And I also wondered if people are still as put off today as they were when John 6 happened when JESUS told them they had to eat His flesh and drink His blood to have eternal life in them?
I wonder if this word picture He gave depicts how distasteful it is for people to confess they are hell-deserving sinners in need of The Only Savior?shutterstock_187826798
I wonder if He used these very words to bring reality to their very faces?
You see His very FLESH had to be torn to pieces and His very BLOOD spilled out for YOU and ME to be saved from the eternal death we were born into.
Do you remember some years ago songs from hymn books about the BLOOD of JESUS were removed?
Why? Because it was so distasteful. Some folks didn’t want to sing those words.

Do you ever wonder if there really is a Last Day?
Well, Yeshua spoke of the Last Day, three times in this one chapter.

There is a Last Day.

Should we not be asking people if they know if they will be raised up on that Last Day?
Do you know for sure YOU will be raised up at the Last Day?
I had to ask.
I can’t suggest you ask others and me not ask others, can I?

I am mindful that more than not my posts these days are somber; not easy reads, not funny, and not rose-colored, but neither are the days in which we live and neither is a future without JESUS.
Somebody has got to give the bad news AND the Greatest News EVER!  — it might as well be me!

Love, Kathie 

I Do

Good Morning.

May I give you something to ponder?

John 5: 45 to 47.

Yeshua is speaking here with people who are well familiar with the Scrolls of Moses, all those GOD-breathed words preserved for them and for us.

45 “But don’t think that it is I who will be your accuser before the Father. Do you know who will accuse you? Moshe, the very one you have counted on! 46 For if you really believed Moshe, you would believe me; because it was about me that he wrote. 47 But if you don’t believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?”  source 

Scripture.
How do we read it?
Do we read it as the Books that will judge the conduct of mankind?
We should read it that way — don’t you think?

How does our day-to-day conduct line up with Scripture?
Will the Scripture exonerate us or condemn us when those Books are opened in Heaven?

Before closing, I am reminded of one more Scripture address.

So the question must be are we in UNION with JESUS?
What does union mean?
We will need some other words to describe the word union.
How about agreement, and harmony?
How about the state of matrimony?
Do we habitually live in a state of agreement, harmony, and even more accurately descriptive: covenant-matrimony with JESUS?
Look at it this way: do our lives say we have answered I DO to this question:
Do you take this Savior Yeshua HaMashiach as your only Savior to Love Him, Honor Him, and Obey Him until death you depart this earth?
That my Friends is IN UNION.
I told you I had something for us to ponder! Historic+Chabad+Orthodox+Jewish+Wedding+in+Times+Square+Manhattan+New+York+NYC+Photo+by+Chaim+Schvarcz+(9)

What Time Is It?

Posted on by

Honestly, I’m just popping in to see what will show up on the page and to say hello.
I don’t like being away from this screen for many days.

Well, we are halfway through the month of January 2023.
How’s it going for you so far?
It seems the clock clockis speedily ticking to me.

I have a verse for us to ponder today.

35 By this all people will know that you are My disciples: if you have love for one another.”  John 13 source 

I’ve been thinking about this verse for some days. In context, who do you think JESUS was addressing when He said this?
The setting is the upper room the night He was arrested.
Who was in the room that night?
All people (sinners and saints) will know you are my disciples if you have love for one another. 
Who is one another?
I looked up the word LOVE as used in the Text. It’s agápē.

When the Body of Christ has agápē for each other, then the people of the world will know we are His Disciples.

What is agápē anyway? agápē    agapáō

The commands to the Body of Christ are to agápē one another and to proclaim the Gospel of The Kingdom of GOD to the world.
I’ve said it myself but I repent of saying it — we are not here to Share the Gospel.
You read that right. We are not here to SHARE the Gospel. We are here to PROCLAIM it.

Please compare the words: Share.  Proclaim 
Do you see a difference?

The CHURCH has some repenting to do.
And some agápē ing one another and some proclaiming to the world, to do.
Would you agree?

I didn’t expect this.

Love, Kathie
