COME ON, YOU CAN DO it!

DON’T “STOP” NOW, because the “SKY” is the LIMIT!

I DON’T CARE, if “YOU”, & your “ARMS” are too “SHORT” or too “LONG”.

If YOU DON’T “TRY”, then what’s the “POINT” of GOING ON?

YOU GOT to “BELIEVE” in the “ONE” UP ABOVE.

TRUST IN “HIM” with ALL of your “LOVE”:)

YOU CAN DO it, just KEEP “TRYING”!

DON’T GIVE UP, KEEP ON “PERSEVERING”.

YOU HAVE ‘DREAMS” that “NEED” to COME “TRUE”!

YOU HAVE “GOALS” that YOU “NEED” to DO!

If “YOU” GIVE UP NOW, “YOU” WILL “NEVER” GET there.

So FIND your “STRENGTH”, & “REMEMBER” to “PERSEVERE”!

3 John 1:2 (KJV): Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

COME ON my “BROTHER”, COME ON my “SISTER”, to “SUCCEED” IN this “ACHIEVEMENT”, “YOU” NEED to “CONQUER” this!

COME ON my “BROTHER”, COME ON my “SISTER”, it’s NOT “HARD”, because ALL YOU “NEED” to DO is, “STRETCH” OUT your “ARMS”.

So “STRETCH” OUT your “ARMS”, & “REACH”!

“REACH” for GOD & CHRIST!

“REACH”, “REACH” to HAVE GOD & CHRIST “FIRST” & MUCH “MORE” IN your “LIFE”!

“REACH” for what’s “HOLY” & “TRUE”!

“REACH”, so that “YOU” CAN be “BRAND NEW”!

Psalms 51:10-12 (KJV):

10. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

11. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

12. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

“REACH” for GOD, & “ETERNAL SALVATION” with him, because he’s the “ULTIMATE” PRESENT!

My “BROTHER”, my “SISTER”, to “YOU”, I “BESEECH”, TOWARDS “GOD” & “CHRIST”, “STRETCH” OUT your “ARMS”, & “REACH”!

A “FORM” Of “SOCIALISM” In The “HOLY” Bible

By Jovantee R. Blair

A “FORM” of “SOCIALISM” in the “HOLY” bible?

How CAN that be?

Well, FIRST of all, “SOCIALISM” NEEDS to be DEFINED”, & it’s “DEFINED” as, ACCORDING to Encyclopaedia Britannica;

"Socialism, social and economic doctrine that calls for public rather than private ownership or control of property and natural resources. According to the socialist view, individuals do not live or work in isolation but live in cooperation with one another. Furthermore, everything that people produce is in some sense a social product, and everyone who contributes to the production of a good is entitled to a share in it. Society as a whole, therefore, should own or at least control property for the benefit of all its members."-Encyclopaedia Britannica: http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/551569/socialism

And ACCORDING to Diffen.com;

"All people should be given an equal beginning. Workers should have most say in their factory's management. Looking out for general welfare. Control of production by ideology rather than consumer desires."- Capitalism vs Socialism: http://www.diffen.com/difference/Capitalism_vs_Socialism

So, with “SOCIALISM” BEING “DEFINED” UP ABOVE, how CAN a “FORM” of “SOCIALISM” be in the “HOLY” bible?

Well, “CAREFULLY” READ the FOLLOWING biblical passages below, to GET a “CLEAR” UNDERSTANDING, of how GOD PUT a “FORM” of “SOCIALISM” in his “HOLY” word, the “HOLY” bible.

Exodus 16:15-18 (KJV):

15. And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna: for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the Lord hath given you to eat.

16. This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating, an omer for every man, according to the number of your persons; take ye every man for them which are in his tents.

17. And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some less.

18. And when they did mete it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack; they gathered every man according to his eating.

Exodus 30:15 (KJV): The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel, when they give an offering unto the Lord, to make an atonement for your souls.

Acts 2:44-47 (KJV):

44. And all that believed were together, and had all things common;

45. And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.

46. And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart,

47. Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

Acts 4:32-35 (KJV):

32. And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.

33. And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.

34. Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,

35. And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.

2 Corinthians 8:11-16 (KJV):

11. Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which ye have.

12. For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.

13. For I mean not that other men be eased, and ye burdened:

14. But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality:

15. As it is written, He that had gathered much had nothing over; and he that had gathered little had no lack.

16. But thanks be to God, which put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you.

As you CAN SEE, from “READING” the ABOVE biblical passages, there is a “FORM” of “SOCIALISM” that GOD PUT in his “HOLY” word, the “HOLY” bible.

“From each according to his ability, to each according to his contribution, with emphasis on profit being distributed among the society or workforce in addition to receiving a wage.”- Capitalism vs Socialism: http://www.diffen.com/difference/Capitalism_vs_Socialism

“SOCIALISM” is ALL about “HELPING” one another out & NOT just “HELPING” yourself, but “GIVING” to your “NIEGHBOR”, if he or she lacks in something he or she needs, but you HAVE MORE of what your “NEIGHBOR” NEEDS, & GIVING it to him or her, because;

"Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."-Matthew 22:39 (KJV)

"Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these."-Mark 12:31 (KJV)

The “FACE” of GOD?

By Jovantee R. Blair
07/05/2012, Thu

For the people that “CLAIM” that they HAVE “SEEN” GOD, or “CLAIM” that they HAVE “SEEN” GOD, of when they had a NEAR “DEATH experience, those people are ‘LYING”, & they SHOULD HAVE “DIED”, because;

“No man hath seen God at any time”-John 1:18 (KJV), because GOD said that;

“Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.”- Exodus 33:20 (KJV), but what about “JACOB”?

What about him?

Well in Genesis 32:20 is says that;

“And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.”-Genesis 32:30 (KJV), but DON’T get it TWISTED, because, like previously mentioned above;

“No man hath seen God at any time.”1 John 4:12 (KJV).

But how could “JACOB” say what he said in Genesis 32:30?

Well, because;

“Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared. Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him.”-Exodus 23:20-21 (KJV)

So “JACOB” "NEVER" SAW GOD's face literally, but rather, as the context shows, in Exodus 23:20-21, it was GOD speaking through "ANGELS" in open, verbal communication.

Are ALL Things “POSSIBLE” With GOD?

By Jovantee R. Blair

06/29/2012, F 

Why does the “HOLY BIBLE” say anything is “POSSIBLE” with GOD, and at the same time say some things are “IMPOSSIBLE”?

Matthew 19:26 (KJV): But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

Mark 10:27 (KJV): And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.

Luke 18:27 (KJV): And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God. 


Hebrews 6:18 (KJV): That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:

So which one is TRUE? Is NOTHING “IMPOSSIBLE”, or is something “IMPOSSIBLE”?

If you still DON’T “UNDERSTAND”, then READ the following below.

It is “IMPOSSIBLE” for GOD to do anything APART from his “CHARACTER”.

Luke 1:26-38 (KJV):

26. And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,

27. To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.

28. And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

29. And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.

30. And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.

31. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

32. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

33. And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

34. Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

35. And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

36. And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

37. For with God nothing shall be impossible.

38. And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

From Hannah J. Paul;

In the first instance, Hebrews tells us that it is impossible for God to lie. That is a fact. It is also impossible for him to violate a covenant, break a promise, lower his standards, violate his own perfect justice. It is also quite impossible for God to die. So then, what does Luke 1:37 mean?

Take a look at the context. Here, Gabriel is answering Mary's question of how she can possibly become pregnant and give birth when she is not sexually active. The angel explains that this is not impossible with God, who can easily overcome this seeming obstacle. The angel assures her by telling her that even her relative Elizabeth - barren and well past the age of childbearing - is already six months' pregnant. From man's viewpoint, it was impossible for Elizabeth to conceive and bear a child. Yet, she is three months from delivery!

Another example is found at Matthew 19:26. Jesus had just finished explaining that it will be very difficult for a rich man to attain salvation. The surprised disciples asked; "Who really, then, can be saved?" Jesus told them that with God all things were possible. Within the context of attaining salvation, even a rich man could enter the kingdom of God with God's divine help.

So then, some things are actually impossible for God as described at the outset. On the other hand, what may seem to be impossible from man's perspective is quite easily done in the power of God.

From me:

So;

"But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.'-Matthew 19:26 (KJV), but ALL things are NOT "POSSIBLE" with GOD, because it is "IMPOSSIBLE" for God to lie, because;

"God is not a man, that he should lie;"-Numbers 23:19 (KJV)
