Q25: 32. . . The Centurion Show the Desire of Ages is inspired.. (1) Amazing faith in Jesus.. The centurion did not question the Saviour's power. He did not even askHim to come in person to perform the miracle. "Speak the word only," he said, "and my servant shallbe healed." He believed thatJesus could heal him. He had not seen the Saviour, but the reports he heard had inspired him with faith. "When Jesus heard these things, He marveled at him, and turned Him about, and said unto the peoplethat followed Him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel." And to thecenturion He said, "As thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in theselfsame hour." It is thus that every sinner may come to Christ. "Not by works of righteousness which we have done,but according to His mercy He saved us." Titus 3:5. When Satan tells you that you are a sinner, andcannot hope to receive blessing from God, tell him that Christ came into the world to save sinners. Definition of faith: Heb 11:1 � Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Those of trmendous faith: Those who had zero faith: Faith is a gift of GOD, so the redeemed can survive the relationship with GOD, to make you fireproof. Faith is a firey power from GOD: The centurian had tremendous faith in Jesus, more than all of Israel. He believed in the power of words, because he was used to using his own words of power to command others under him is a chain of command. But he saw in Jesus a great chain of command, and thus the command of life and death. What faith the man had in Jesus! Those who had zero faith: Esau was a fornicator because he wanted meat, to satisfy a craving in his brain, thus he fell to the addiction of his carnal nature. This story is contrasting those who have no faith, even though they pray in tears, G OD does not hear them because of the wrong choices of eating they make. And this story is NOTHING compared to the modern times of food addictions we have today...meat laced with sugar, fat and salt...all strong drug like compounds that inflame the brain, and cause sinning in your mind... The first step for the sinner to get some measure of faith, we must overcome the weeds that choke out the seeds of faith we might sow in Jesus... There are choices we can make and do...avoid addictions of food....change your lifestyle of eating... seek to remove those things that destroy your choice and your will to choose... For our GOD is a consuming fire, and to endure the faith of GOD, we need to become fire-proof. For more, see the latter rain of Jesus. Shalom Fornication on the mind BEGINS with poor food choices:- The Jesus SEED must be FREED if the relationship is to SUCCEED.. Jesus does not hear our prayers if we allow our propensites to continue growing in us. We have to ask Jesus to control and subdue our flesh propensities, our sinful habits, our diseased minds of depravity. So do not allow WEED to IMPEDE Jesus' power. Shalom Eating home grown food, does NOT inflame the brain with fornication. The Holy Writings links the brain and the sins of thoughts with actions of sexual depravity, with physical eating of food that is bad for you. Food laced with fat, toasted cheese sandwiches, meat burgers, and fried potato chips soaked in cancer causing cooking oil. Food laced with sugar and fat, such as icecream and chocolate cake. Food laced with salt and fat, such as meat fried in cancer causing oil. The devil and the food manufacturing industry know such food combinations are bad for you, but they also inflame the brain and heart with injuries. They cause food fornication with addictions that lead to sexual depravity: Notice what Paul says about church goers who eat too much of the wrong food: 1Co 5:11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, ... with such an one no not to eat. Notice what Paul says food fornication, and how bad food is the first stage of sin, even for church goers. 1Co 6:11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. There is hope for even church goers if we are washed and made straight again by Jesus. But we also need to understand as the one in relationship with Jesus, we have the power of will to choose correctly the foods we eat. We must understand the life style choices of food, and the food fornication such eating causes. The next chapter of Desire of Ages..we look at Who Are My Brethren?. |
