UNDERSTANDING 'GENESIS'; 'THE BEGINNINGS', AN OVERVIEW, POST A-7, March 31, 2018

Continuing from March 21, 2018, Post A-5; March 28, 2018, Post-Card A-6. This series will generally post on Wednesdays and Saturdays, going forward.

My Friends, as you noticed from our previous posts, and events in the world today, we have sadly gotten away from 'roles' for men and women. Some even have the nerve to call 'roles' - 'old-fashioned' or 'ancient', in a derogatory manner. But, that does not change the 'truth'. What is said about 'do not remove the ancient paths'? [See Post- A- 6, for a 'most' 'frank' 'conversation' from Mrs. Quarles, from a 'heart of God's love and truth'.].

'UNDERSTANDING "GENESIS', AN OVERVIEW, POST - CARD A-6, MARCH 28, 2018

Continuing from March 21, 2018, post A-5. This series will generally continue to post on Wednesdays and Saturdays going forward. Let us continue with another 'post-card', expandable post, today.

As you noticed from our previous post, and when we consider the events in the world today, we have sadly gotten away from 'roles' for men and women. 'Roles' give 'order', with 'expectations', from 'guidelines' on what to 'reasonably' 'expect' from individuals. Some even have the nerve to call 'roles' - 'old-fashioned' or 'ancient', in a derogatory manner. But, that does not change the 'truth'. And, there exist 'no truth', other than the entire 'Word of God', [the Holy Bible], and God Himself, as found in the Holy Bible. [John 14:6; 18:37-38]

It simply means that a 'choice' by each of us, must be made. [Joshua 24:15]

Therefore, What is said about 'do not remove the ancient paths'?

What if........?

If you knew without a shadow of a doubt, that this very week would be the last week of your earthly existence, what would you do? How would you live it? What unfinished business would you take care of before the week was over? WAIT! DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION, JUST YET. From this day, Sunday, March 25, 2018, I pray that you give this matter some serious consideration as you continue on this post to study - 'JESUS' LAST WEEK ON THIS EARTH'. Amen. audio-bible.com/bible/bible.html

If you knew that this was the last week on earth for you, how would you live it? See the 'Welcome Room' Post, March 25, 2018 to see how Jesus lived His last week. Wow!! Amen. Amen.

JUST AS I AM, Charlotte Elliott, 1835, in 'Remembrance' of 'Palm Sunday', Post A, March 25, 2018

Just As I Am

Just as I am without one plea but that
Thy blood was shed for me
And that Thou bid'st me come to Thee
Oh lamb of God I come I come.

Just as I am and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot
To Thee who's blood can cleanse each spot
Oh lamb of God I come I come.

Just as I am Lord Thou tossed about
With many a conflict and many a doubt
Fightings fears within and without
Oh lamb of God I come I come.

GOD'S MAN - GOD'S WOMAN, LESS ANY BE DECEIVED.

First, if you have not read in the "WELCOME ROOM" of my home, be on notice - what you are about to read is neither 'politically correct', nor is it a 'safe zone'. BUT, IT IS 'THE TRUTH' FROM THE LORD GOD'S WORD. If you do not want to 'know' the 'truth', then this website and this post is not for you. You are forewarned.

In Genesis and throughout the Holy Scriptures y0u are able to discern, to see the very 'characteristics' of both, men and women. And, you can tell when 'man' or 'woman' is doing that which is pleasing to the Lord, the Creator. He continues to direct them on to the next stage of their development. So, let us see what Adam's role was, and then, let us glean what Eve was doing.

[For more details, check out the web on men's needs/women's need. See also such books as Gary Chapman, 'The Five Love Languages', as well as Willard F. Harley, Jr., 'His Needs, Her Needs'.]

GOD'S MAN - GOD'S WOMAN, LESS ANY BE DECEIVED.

FIRST LET US SEE THROUGH A LITTLE CHART WHAT IS BELIEVED BY MOST 'IN THE KNOW', TO BE THE 'NEEDS' OF A 'MAN' AND A 'WOMAN'. [Please remember, this is BEFORE modernism and post-modernism, feminism and all that 'confusion', still unfolding in the 21st Century.]

MAN'S NEEDS -
Sexual Fulfillment
Recreational Companionship
An attractive Spouse
Domestic Support
Admiration.

WOMAN'S NEEDS -
Affection
Conversation
Honesty and Openness
Financial Support
Family Commitment.
MEN, WOMEN, THINK FOR YOURSELVES. IS THIS NOT WHAT YOU REALLY NEED, BUT FOR 'BEING' 'POLITICALLY CORRECT'??

GENESIS - 'BEGINNINGS' AN OVERVIEW INTRODUCTION POST-CARD A-4, March 17, 2018

audio-bible.com/bible/bible.html

Welcome back to Genesis Chapters 1-2. In this very 'Post-Card' and expandable post, I am deliberately going very slow so that you can take your time and see, understand how very 'detailed' our Abba Father is, when He sets His 'mind' to do something. This is 'beginnings'. This is the 'pattern' of how Abba, Father works, even now. He, does not 'rush'. If we can learn and appreciate His 'revelation' in these very first chapters, then, as we move forward, we will have a reference point from which we can continually believe Him, as revealed in His Word. THIS IS SO CRITICALLY IMPORTANT IN ORDER FOR US TO 'GROW IN OUR FAITH.' As Isaiah points our to us, from Isaiah 40:27-31, to wit:
'Why do you say, O Jacob, And speak, O Israel: “My way is hidden from the Lord, And my just claim is passed over by my God”? Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord, The Creator of the ends of the earth, Neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the weak, And to those who have no might He increases strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall, But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.' See also Exodus 14:14; Isaiah 30:18; 'Job'; Psalm 27:14; Romans 8:25; 12:12; 2 peter 3:8-9] Amen. Amen.

GENESIS - 'BEGINNINGS' AN OVERVIEW INTRODUCTION POST A-3, March 10, 2018

Welcome my 'Born-Again' 'New' Children of the Living God and others. Let us continue with our Mutual Teacher, the Holy Spirit in Genesis, specifically - Chapters 1-2.www.audio-bible.com/bible/bible.html

Did you notice in your reading how very 'specific' the Almighty was during the 'seven days' of 'creation'. He was making everything that His Choice 'creation' ,[man], would need for the provision of 'fulfilling life' on the planet 'earth'.

Go back and read ever so carefully how the Creator took care of everything needful and then some, reading by these sections: Genesis 1:1-3, 4, 5-7; 8-9; 10; 11; 12; 13-15; 16-18; 19-21; 24; 25.

Notice that what the Almighty said happened [it was so] AND notice how many times He said - 'It was good'. God does not make 'junk'!

This is the Almighty Creator God who does not change. What He says will happen, and - even if we, finite humans think in our finite minds that 'it is not good', you will learn that He is 'sovereign' AND ALWAYS in control of 'EVERYTHING'; notice - down to the 'minutest of details.' He even uses what seems to be 'bad' in His divine, unfathomable and ultimate plan - to one day, set up HIS KINGDOM in which Jesus Christ will be 'King of Kings and Lord of Lords.'

It is so important to see in Genesis 1-11, 'principles' and 'attributes' of the Almighty - Creator God which you will see throughout the Holy Bible. This is why we will not rush through the first eleven chapters. God is faithful, always to HIS WORD. Thus, it behooves a wise person to 'know His Word'.

And, notice how Adam and Eve did not have to 'imagine' what they needed - God provided for them, knowing in advance what would be needed. He still does this. His children never have to worry. [Matthew 6:8, 11; Romans 8:32; 1 Corinthians 15:57; 2 Corinthians 1:22, 5:5; Galatians 2:20; Ephesians 4:8, 5:2; 1 Thessalonians 4:8; 1 Timothy 1:12; James 1:5, 4:6; 1 John 3:24, and most important, ETERNAL LIFE, 1 John 5:11]

Go ahead. See all the above. Could anyone have asked for all that He knows we need??

He, and He only, can be trusted. He is ALL POWERFUL, ALL KNOWING AND ALL PRESENT. By faith, take what He says, to the bank! Believe. It will happen, in His divine time, by His divine wisdom and way. It is all, for His Glory, for the Praise of Jesus Christ, for the 'good' [salvation purposes] of all who comes to Him, by faith in Jesus Christ.

GENESIS - 'BEGINNINGS' AN OVERVIEW INTRODUCTION POST A-2

www.audio-bible.com/bible/bible.html

WELCOME BACK. Starting where we left off on Post A-1 a few days ago, HAVE YOU COME TO THE CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST?

Are you 'hearing' His Voice? Do you have a 'nagging', 'persistent' feeling that 'something is just - off?' Are you 'wondering' why you keep being pulled back to this 'site'? Do you feel 'confused'? And yet, you just keep coming back? CHEER UP! THERE IS HOPE!! Could it be - Jesus is saying to YOU, PERSONALLY at this time in your life - 'Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. He who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I myself conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.' [Revelation 3:20-22]

You see, none of us can come to God, unless God initiates the action. As it is written, 'None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands, no one seeks for God, all have turned aside, together they have gone wrong; no one does good, not even one. . . . All have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God.' [Romans 3:9-13; 23 RSV]

But God, because of His Grace and Mercy, His Love will not allow man to have no hope. He loves you. [John 3:16] And because He does, He has provided a remedy to take care of your sins which separate you from Him. There is one, BUT, only ONE REMEDY. [HE IS 'SOVEREIGN AND GETS TO CALL ALL THE SHOOTS!'] You, no one can purchase 'THE REMEDY'. Neither anyone 'DESERVING OF THE REMEDY'. But, Jesus Christ, God's Son was sent by God from heaven to die to take away your sins. That is the purpose of 'THE CROSS OF CALVARY'. But even more. THE EMPTY GRAVE AND THE ASCENSION!! Three days later, God raised Jesus from the dead and He ascended back to heaven, from which He will return when God sends Him back to set up - God's Kingdom on a - rebuilt earth. That He rose and ascended is PROOF POSITIVE THAT - 'IT IS FINISHED'. Whosoever will call on the name of the Lord, believing that God sent Him and that He died so that you may be forgiven of your sins, and reconciled back to God through a 'new nature' given by God, may be 'saved'. JUSTIFIED. No 'justly deserved condemnation'!! YOU ARE PARDONED IN JESUS CHRIST, RECONCILED TO GOD, BACK FROM THE CURSE OF THE FALL OF ADAM AND EVE!! WOW!!

Could that be why - you know that - 'something is just not right'?? All these are ways the Father 'calls' a person to Him. [john 3]

Will YOU, this day, come to the foot of the Cross of Jesus Christ, praying something like this:
