Enter Into His Rest

Is Jesus doing His Good Works through us while we await The Redemption of our Bodies? Is the Indwelling of The Holy Spirit, giving us The Birth from above, the down payment for The Redemption of our Bodies? Does there appear to be 2 Obstacles obstructing us from entering into His Rest? Do Unbelief and Failure to Cease from our own works cause any of our countries to “seem to come short ... of a promise being left us of entering into his rest”?  Have we all been working too hard?!

We concluded the prior Lesson, "The Gap, truth or theory" in Luke 4:28-29, where we learned the whole Synagogue was filled with wrath, cast him out of the city, and led him to the precipice of the hill on which Nazareth was built to “cast him down headlong”! We ended with the question: what happened between verses 22 and 28?  (Verse 23). Shall we find out?

The Gap

by Walter Giddings

Is the Gap Truth or theory? Where in the Scriptures do we find a gap?  How well did our fathers, living under the Old Covenant, understand the Messianic Prophecies? Are there Scriptures that reveal the people’s understanding in Jesus’ day?

Isaiah 61:1-3

In our previous Lesson, “What is truth?”we learned how to evaluate and validate truth claims. Then we tested ourselves against a number of truth claims.

Is the Gap truth or theory? Where in the Scriptures do we find a gap? How well did our fathers, living under the Old Covenant, understand the Messianic Prophecies? Are there Scriptures that reveal the people’s understanding in Jesus’ day?

What is Truth?

(John 18). How do we know that something, or someone, is true? [Repeat] Who, here, has never been tricked? It would be fair to warn you. This is a trick Question. Centuries of Philosophers have wrestled with the nature of truth, reality and perception. Reading much of it is a special kind of torture. This is especially true when philosophers dive into the nature of Adamic perception. What say you? (John 18:37-38). The age-old Question, “What is truth?”, appears here

The Same

“The same yesterday, and today, and forever”

In prior Lessons we have explored the unfortunate Fact that Sheep give Stupid a new Name! Facts are stubborn things! And stubborn means we are born to stub our toes! We are counselled in James 5:12, “confess your faults one to another”, and in 2 Corinthians 12:10, “… take pleasure in infirmities”! In free confession before this local Body of Christ, I cannot recall in my eighties if I have ever taken pleasure in stubbing my toesIt is such a Rude Reminder of my helpless mortality!

Therefore, this Lesson incorporates some precautionary provisions to help Sheep with Sheep avoid giving Stupidity a new name. This is more than cautionaryThis is precautionary. This is a major Statute of Bible Study in the form of a precautionary Question:  “Is this a doctrine of God, or a doctrine of man?!!

“when ye received the word of God”

“Thy word is truth.”  John 17:17:. Can men sanctify other men? Can God sanctify men? Who is speaking in Verse 17? Where do we find who is speaking in Verse 17? Does Verse 1 of chapter 17 begin “These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father the hour is come;”?  Is Jesus praying to “our Father”? (Verse 17). Is Jesus asking our Father to sanctify us through His truth? How can we be sure that Jesus prayed for us, as well as the Apostles and disciples who believed on Him? Verse 2. Does Jesus, in Verse 2, refer to himself in this prayer in the 3rd person, in his role as “the Son”?
