(This podcast was previously recorded and published on August 11, 2020)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...    We cannot pursue fame, money and reputation among men and serve God. The only way we can be a servant of God is to do that which God tells us to do which is opposite to the way of this world.   But our flesh wants fame, money and reputation.   So there is a battle.   How do we overcome our own flesh?   This is the story of this Podcast.   ==   I John 5:14-15  And this is the confidence that we have in HIM, that, if we ask any thing according to HIS will, HE heareth us:   15 And if we know that HE hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of HIM.     Matthew 4:8-11  Again, the devil taketh HIM (Jesus) up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth HIM all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;   9 And saith unto HIM, All these things will I give THEE, if THOU wilt fall down and worship me.   10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and HIM only shalt thou serve.   11 Then the devil leaveth HIM, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto HIM.     2 Thessalonians 2:3-4   Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day (of the Lord) shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4  Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.     1 John 2:18   Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.     2 Thessalonians 2:6-8 (NASB)   And you know what restrains him now, so that he will be revealed in his time.    7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only HE (Jesus, the Word) who now restrains will do so until HE (Jesus, the Word) is removed.    8 Then that lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will eliminate with the breath of HIS mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming;     Titus 3:10-11   A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;   11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.     Philippians 4:13   I can do all things through Christ (the Word) which strengtheneth me.

(I Corinthians 2)   James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.   The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth and HE shows us truth in each question of this present life.   ==    John 14:26  Jesus says ...  But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in MY name, HE shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.   John 16:13 Jesus says ... Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever HE shall hear, that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come.     1 Corinthians 3:16  Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?    1 Corinthians 6:19-20   What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?  20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.    2 Corinthians 3:5  Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?     James 1:5  If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.      Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

(This podcast was previously recorded and published on August 15, 2020)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   All people know there was a man who walked on this earth and his name was Jesus.   But few know that Jesus lives inside the believer today by HIS Spirit ... and the Spirit of Jesus brings scripture and concepts to the mind of the believer to teach him, to guide him, to show him things to come.   Few people, even those people in churches, believe that Jesus has come into the body of the believer to live in that believer by His Spirit.   I Corinthians 3:16  Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?   I Corinthians 6:19-20  What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.   II Corinthians 13:5  Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?    Romans 8   7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.   9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His.   10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.   11 But if the Spirit of Him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, HE that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by HIS Spirit that dwelleth in you.   Jesus lives in each believer today by that Spirit which God gives us after we believe the Word.   Ephesians 1:12-13  That we should be to the praise of HIS glory, who first trusted in Christ.   13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,     Matthew 24:4-5  And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.   5 For many shall come in MY name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.  (They come saying "Jesus is Lord" and deceive many)     1 Corinthians 2:9-10  But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love HIM.   10 But God hath revealed them unto us by HIS Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.      1 Corinthians 2:14   But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.     John 6:29   Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on HIM (the Word) whom HE (God) hath sent.      Colossians 3:3  For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.   4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.     John 14:26  Jesus says ...  But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in MY name, HE shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.     John 16:13  Jesus says ...  Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever HE shall hear, that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come.

(This podcast was previously recorded and published on August 30, 2020)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   One of the most important things for each of us is to live in peace continually.  For when Jesus returns for the church it is very important that we be found by Him at that time living in peace, without spot, and blameless.     II Peter 3:12-14    Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?  Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.   Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM (of Jesus) in peace, without spot, and blameless.   It would be impossible for us to live in peace unless we do the following continually.   Philippians 4:6   Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.   Is there anything troubling you today?  Are you concerned about anything that is coming tomorrow?  Is there a fear of any kind concerning tomorrow?   If so, you are not living in peace.  You are failing to connect with God through prayer.   As we pray about each of our cares daily, we show that we trust in God and not in ourselves.   We connect with God by prayer.  And that makes us worthy to escape those things that are coming upon this earth says Jesus.   James 1:5  If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.     1 Peter 5:7  Casting all your care upon HIM; for HE careth for you.     Luke 21:36  Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.     Romans 1:28  And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;     Matthew 24:12-13  Jesus says ... And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.   13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.     Galatians 5:19-21  Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.     Romans 8:1, 13-14  There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.   13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.   14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.     Revelation 3:5  Jesus says ...  He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before MY Father, and before HIS angels.     Joshua 1:8  This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

(This podcast was previously recorded and published on August 29, 2020)     Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...    Each of us have thoughts where we could feel sorrowful or complain. We also have things for which we can be thankful.  If we learn to deliberately choose to think on those things for which we are thankful, we can turn our lives around.   Philippians 4:6  Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.   There are times when your husband or wife or friend does trifle things which annoy you. As you think on the grievances, you puff up and sometimes strike out.   If you will pray, asking God for help, and also deliberately think of things whereby your husband or wife or friend did things that caused you to rejoice, the grievances often fly away, disappearing.   Devils often attack by bringing negative thoughts to our minds. Our flesh sometimes wallows in those thoughts and things get much worse. And there is no good thing in our flesh, says Paul.  (Romans 7)   We, who have the power of the Holy Spirit of Jesus living in us, have in HIM a great power for good toward ourselves and toward others also if we will live in HIS power.   Galatians 5:15-16  But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. This I say then, Walk in the Spirit (that which God brings to your mind), and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.   It is not that we act in a phony way. But there are real things that other person has done for us which we can think on, blessings from God by that other person.   Learn to think on those things, especially when you want to strike out.   And above all, pray, asking God to help you in the midst of the attacks, for God will help you when you desire help.     James 1:26   If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.     John 4:23   But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.      I Timothy 2:1-4   I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;  2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.    3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;  4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.      Galatians 5:19-23  Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,   20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,   21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.   22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,   23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.      Galatians 5:17   For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.      2 Peter 3:14  Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things (the return of Jesus), be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.     Luke 21:36   Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.      2 John vv. 8-11   Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.   9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.   10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:   11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

Amen.     John 14:26  Jesus says ...  But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in MY name, HE shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.     John 16:13  Jesus says ...  Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.     James 1:25  But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of HIS.    10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.    11 But if the Spirit of HIM that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, HE that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by HIS Spirit that dwelleth in you.    12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.    13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.    14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of (from) the Father, cometh unto ME (The Word).   Man loves to "glory in the flesh" of man.  Therefore the Jews in the New Testament church in the day of Paul said the believers from the Gentiles had to be circumcised.  (Galatians 3-5) They wanted to glory in the flesh of that which man did.   Today they want to glory in our flesh by telling people things we did.  But I've found when I tell then that God had me do that thing over which they glory, most flee from me.  They don't want to glory in things God has done.  They want to glory in my flesh, in things I have done.   That person who is really of God glories in that which God has done.   Jesus said:  I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.  (John 5:30)   Like Jesus, we can do nothing except that which we hear from God by HIS Spirit, the Holy Spirit.   And by HIS Spirit we are taught by God concerning the will of God and that which God wants us to do as we live on this present earth.   I John 2:27  But the anointing which ye have received of HIM abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in HIM.     Hebrews 8:10-11  For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put MY laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to ME a people:    11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know ME, from the least to the greatest.     I Corinthians 3:16  Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?      2 Corinthians 13:5  Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?     John 14:26 Jesus says: But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in MY name, HE shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.     John 16:13  Jesus says:   Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever HE shall hear (from God), that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come.     1 Corinthians 2:4-5, 13-14  Paul said:  And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.   13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.   14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.      Titus 3:10-11 A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;   11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.     2 Timothy 3:5  Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.     2 John vv. 8-11  Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.   9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.   10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:   11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.   * I Cor. 7:10-11 And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.   * Mt. 5:32 Jesus says: But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.   - The faithful wife who is divorced by her husband will commit adultery if she remarries but her husband who divorced the faithful wife will be the cause of her adultery.   - The man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.      * I Cor. 6:18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.   * I Cor. 6:9-10 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.   * Gal. 5:19-21 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.     If we support those people who are doing these things and show ourselves friends to them in their acts, we become an enemy to God.   2 John vv. 8-11  Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.   9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God.

Antichrist doesn't come through humans."    God reminded me of following scripture:     I John 2:18-19  John said:  Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.   19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.   ***   The Bible shows us antichrist coming through people in the church even in the days of the apostle John.   The objective of antichrist is to cause us to depart from the Word of God and to set up doctrine contrary to the Word of God.    The objective of the devil is to destroy the people of God, if we allow ourselves to be destroyed, following destructive thoughts of devils and our own flesh.    Therefore the apostle Paul instructs:    II Corinthians 10:3-5  For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:    4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)    5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.    (Making every thought obedient to Christ, THE WORD.)    As long as we live on this earth, we must deal with every thought to make that which "we think" conform to the Word of God, casting all thoughts contrary to the scriptures from us, establishing the truth and what we believe by the scriptures by the Holy Spirit of God.    Philippians 4:6-7  Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.   7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.     1 Peter 3:6-7   Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that HE may exalt you in due time:   7 Casting all your care upon HIM; for HE careth for you.       John 8:31-32  Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on HIM, If ye continue in MY word, then are ye MY disciples indeed;   32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.     James 4:7  Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.     Ephesians 6:10-13  Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of HIS might.   11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.   12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.   13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.   14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;   15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;   16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.   17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:   18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;     1 Corinthians 10:13   There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, Who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before Me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.   But God looked on Noah and had respect toward Noah and saved Noah and his wife and his sons and his sons' wives and many animals.   Violence is often cloaked under the guise of "good".  But God sees the truth.   Today we see great violence in the heart of humans as policemen wrongly kill other men, and as protesters fail to allow God to judge the evil actions of men, and as men with violence in their hearts take to the streets in various cities and some loot businesses and do many additional evils.   It turns out that all are evil for even the ones who think they are doing good by protesting, fail to trust God ...   Romans 12:18-19 ... If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.  Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.   Therefore the police who kill wrongly show they are "antichrist" ... and the protesters who go forth with wrath show they are "antichrist" as they fail to follow scripture.    These happenings warn us today that we are racing toward the great tribulation which God will bring at the end, on all people on this earth who do wickedness.

  15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.     Matthew 23:9  And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.     Titus 3:10-11   A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;   11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.     I Corinthians 14:8-9   For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?

On May 27, 2025, Joan Boney died, now sleeping in Jesus, as we're told in I Thessalonians 4.   In a podcast Joan recorded and we first broadcast on January 19, 2025, we are exhorted in what the Bible tells us about death.    Those of the world sorrow and often suffer greatly when someone dies.    But for those who believe what we are told in the Bible, there is great comfort, hope, and joy when another believer dies.   This is the podcast initially published on January 19, 2025:   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...    Death is like "falling asleep."  But at the moment of death, our spirit leaves our body.  And according to the Bible, we sleep in Jesus. (I Thessalonians 4).     When Jesus returns with a shout we will awaken and God gives us a new spiritual body.  We will not have these physical bodies which have pain, decay, and even death.    I Thessalonians 4:13-17   13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.   14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with HIM.   15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.   16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:   With this shout, those who sleep in Jesus will awaken!   17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.   18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.   ***   James 2:26  For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.   The moment we die, our spirit leaves our body.  Therefore our spirit is not buried with our bodies in a grave.    ***   My cousin's husband died.  She was with him at the time.  She said, "Thurman reached over and patted my hand and just "fell asleep".   She told me she was going to visit his grave.  I asked, "Why would you do that?  Thurman is not in a grave.  He left his body the second he fell asleep."   She thought about what I said, and then she said, "Then it really doesn't matter where we are buried."  I replied, "Right."   (I think my cousin was born again at that moment.)   ***    I don't go to a funeral home to visit dead bodies.  I am convinced the person who died is not in that dead body.  (I want to remember the person as living not as dead.)   Neither do I visit grave yards where dead bodies have been buried.  (My father, mother, aunt, uncle are not in those graves!  They sleep in Jesus. And at the time Jesus returns to this earth, HE will "shout" and I believe they will awaken from sleep to the resurrection in a new spiritual body.)   (Paul tells us that our physical body will be changed to a new spiritual body.)   I Corinthians 15   47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.   48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.   49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.  (God is a "spirit". John 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship HIM must worship HIM in spirit and in truth .... We will be raised as "spirit" not as a physical body.)   50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.   51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep (die), but we shall all be changed,   52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.   (Blink ... that is how fast we will be changed from this physical body.)   Revelation 21:3-5  And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and HE will dwell with them, and they shall be HIS people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God. 4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. 5 And HE that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new.   I Corinthians 15   53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

  3 My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?   4 When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.   5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise HIM for the help of HIS countenance.   6 O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember THEE from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.   7 Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of THY waterspouts: all THY waves and THY billows are gone over me.   8 Yet the LORD will command HIS lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night HIS song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life.   9 I will say unto God my rock, Why hast THOU forgotten me?

that I may know how frail I am.   5 Behold, THOU hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity.   6 Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.   7 And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in THEE.   8 Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish.   9 I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because THOU didst it.   10 Remove THY stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of THINE hand.   11 When THOU with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, THOU makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity.   12 Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; hold not THY peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.   13 O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.   ***   Psalm 40   1  I waited patiently for the LORD; and HE inclined unto me, and heard my cry.   2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.   3 And HE hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.   4 Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.   5 Many, O LORD my God, are THY wonderful works which THOU hast done, and THY thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto THEE: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.   6 Sacrifice and offering THOU didst not desire; mine ears hast THOU opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast THOU not required.   7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,   8 I delight to do THY will, O my God: yea, THY law is within my heart.   9 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, THOU knowest.   10 I have not hid THY righteousness within my heart; I have declared THY faithfulness and THY salvation: I have not concealed THY lovingkindness and THY truth from the great congregation.   11 Withhold not THOU THY tender mercies from me, O LORD: let THY lovingkindness and THY truth continually preserve me.   12 For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.   13 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me.   14 Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.   15 Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me, Aha, aha.   16 Let all those that seek THEE rejoice and be glad in THEE: let such as love THY salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.   17 But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: THOU art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
