“Then comes the end, when He hands over the kingdom to God the Father, when He abolishes all rule and all authority and power.” ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭15:24‬ ‭HCSB‬‬

-
After everyone has risen in the correct order then the end of the world as we know it will happen. Jesus will reign as supreme power abolishing all other rule, all other authority, and all other power. 

What will abolishing all other rule look like? It will be that God’s rules are the only in effect. Everyone will live by the 10 commandments strictly. We will have no other God beside God. We will worship only him. We will keep the name of Jesus has holy. We will keep every day holy. We will honor our Father in heaven. We will honor the life that God has given. We will not take what is not ours. We will not lie about any other person. We will be satisfied with what God has given us. We will Love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength. And then we will love everyone else as God has loved us.

What about all other authority? If Jesus was to get rid of all other kings He will be the only King. It will be one solid leadership under the direction of three united people, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. And not divided like the democratic republic leadership we have now.

What about all other power. There will be no dark power at work in the world to draw people away from God. Satan and his unholy angels will be locked away forever and the people of God with all His holy angels will live in peace with God in all his splendor. 

Boy, that all sounds wonderful.

Why not try to live that way now? Why give the devil room to stick his foot in our business with God? Why live in torment while God has promised peace? Why not love God with all our emotions, beliefs. thoughts, and actions? Does God not promise that those who love God in this way will receive all the blessings and life He has promised to us.

The women with the issue of blood

​ The women with the issue of blood Soon after I was married our pastor’s wife gave a message called “The Hem of Him” and this woman was the main subject of her message. She talked about how she had to press through the crowd to get to Jesus. She talked about how she was unclean and should not be in the crowd. Then she related it to us that we have to press through all the doubts, internal and external, to get to Jesus. Most certainly we all have heard a message of this woman.  Did you pick up that she had an issue with bleeding for 12 years? Jairus’ daughter was 12 years old. Of course, neither the women nor Jairus knew this but Jesus did. And was willing to help both the synagogue ruler and this poor woman the same. He did not show favoritism but was moved by their faith.  Could this woman have touched a tassel on Jesus’ robe or did she just touch the hem of it? “The Lord said to Moses, “Speak to the Israelites and tell them that throughout their generations they are to make tassels

The Word of God is #1 living!

​ I want to take the next 4 to 6 posts in BQTT to dwell on what “the word of God is”. The Word of God is #1 living! In our hands, we do not hold some dusty old relic of some 35 to 40 authors. But a living book written by God through the hands of many different people over 1,000’s of years. Have you ever been reading a normal book and a few words jump off the page to say, “Hey, read me again.”? I bet there have been very few times this has happened, but now, how often have the words written in the Bible done that for you? If you spend any amount of time reading the Bible I would say it has happened more than the normal literature.  Last night I was lying down and a verse reference popped into my head. I did not immediately know the words of this verse but had to look it up.  The verse was, “Who makes a god or casts a metal image for no profit?” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭44‬:‭10‬ ‭HCSB ‬‬ This is another aspect of the Bible being alive. The Holy Spirit will bring verses back to memory that we have long

Jephthah a Judge Whose Words Mattered

​ “When the Ammonites made war with Israel, the elders of Gilead went to get Jephthah from the land of Tob. They said to him, “Come, be our commander, and let’s fight against the Ammonites.” ‭‭Judges‬ ‭11‬:‭5‬-‭6‬ ‭HCSB ‬‬ Judge #10 Jephthah Jephthah is an interesting judge. First, he was kicked out of the family because he was the son of a prostitute. But then he was called upon because of his military might. He reasoned with the king who was fighting against Israel. He made a vow that ended in the death of his only daughter. Then he fought against Ephraim, a tribe in Israel, and killed them based on their accent. “Gilead’s wife bore him sons, and when they grew up, they drove Jephthah out and said to him, “You will have no inheritance in our father’s house, because you are the son of another woman.” ‭‭Judges‬ ‭11‬:‭2‬ ‭HCSB ‬‬ “Jephthah the Gileadite was a great warrior, but he was the son of a prostitute, and Gilead was his father.” ‭‭Judges‬ ‭11‬:‭1‬ ‭HCSB ‬‬ “Jephthah sent messeng
