BIBLICAL FRUITS CHRISTIAN WORDS AND CHRISTIAN ACTIONS TRUTH YOU SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS BIBLE VERSE
I'm so proud of you for
your enthusiasm to
become more virtuous for
your beloved Jesus, and
as we uncover more and
more mysteries of TRUTH
together, I have to ask,
can you feel your values
changing? Have you
started to replace old
habits with new ones?
And how do you feel
inside ... Do you feel
like a better person for
it?
All those positive
results are the
fruits of your hands!
You
decided to improve
yourself. You
decided to commit to the
challenge of this
program. You
decided to stick with
it, even though you may
have experienced
obstacles of many kinds
along the way, from time
constraints to illness
to difference of opinion
about something in the
program to peer
pressure, etc., etc.,
etc. No doubt, dozens of
things have nudged you
and said, "Ohhhhh, just
give it up already." But
here you
are, devoted to
your cause, and
you have
already been rewarded
with better values, new
habits and an overall
better feeling of well
being about yourself.
Those are the
fruits of your hands
and those rewards will
continue to grow, as
long as you choose to
continue on a virtuous
path.
WHERE'S THE LOVE?
Lots of people are
proud of the works they
do, but their heart
isn't in them. If you do
things (works) for the
Lord out of obligation,
or for recognition, it's
much different than if
you do them out of
love.
Matthew
7:20-21
Wherefore by
their fruits
ye shall
know them.
Not every
one that
saith unto
me, Lord,
Lord, shall
enter into
the Kingdom
of Heaven;
but he that
doeth the
will of my
Father which
is in
Heaven. |
I'm sure you've heard
the phrase, Talk is
cheap. And it's true ...
Worthless in fact. A
man's (or woman's) word
means nothing until it
has been fulfilled. A
woman can talk about her
virtues 'til she's blue
in the face, but unless
she practices what she
preaches, her words are
empty. There's no
fooling God.
BIBLICAL FRUITS CHRISTIAN WORDS AND CHRISTIAN ACTIONS LAW YOU SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS BIBLE QUOTE
Galatians
6:4
But let
every man
prove his
own work,
and then
shall he
have
rejoicing in
himself
alone, and
not in
another. |
Galatians
6:7
Be not
deceived;
God is not
mocked: for
whatsoever a
man soweth,
that shall
he also
reap. |
Being virtuous is a
choice that’s up to you.
God gives you the choice
to make your own
decisions. It’s never
too late to begin. Every
day is a new day ... A
fresh start. Every
moment is a new moment.
No matter what,
you aren’t a hopeless
cause. Read the New
Testament. Get to know
the character of Jesus'
Apostles at the
beginning of their walk
with Christ. They
weren't a group of
virtue filled fellas
right from the get go.
It took time. It took
faith. One Christian
songwriter describes
them as "a band of
unschooled ruffians and
a few old fishermen."
Some of the un-virtues
they possessed were
doubt, fear, pride,
jealousy ... Paul even
described himself this
way:
1 Timothy
1:15
This is a
faithful
saying, and
worthy of
all
acceptation,
that Christ
Jesus came
into the
world to
save
sinners; of
whom I am
chief. |
BIBLICAL FRUITS CHRISTIAN WORDS AND CHRISTIAN ACTIONS TALK YOU SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS BIBLE SCRIPTURE
Peter, the rock upon
whom Jesus said He would
build His church, had so
much cowardice at one
point that he denied
emphatically to some
gals at a campfire that
he had ever even known
Jesus ... Yet, these
were His Apostles! Jesus
knew that they would
need and depend on the
Holy Spirit after He
left. Don't believe that
He can't change YOUR
life. Remember, if
you're not asking for
something that seems
impossible ... You're
not asking for enough.
You may think that
you've done some
unforgivable things in
your life and there's no
way you could ever make
up for them, but that's
exactly the reason why
our Lord died for us.
THAT IS THE GRACE OF
GOD. There is one
string attached ... You
have to be genuinely
sorry for what you did
wrong.
Ephesians
2:8
For by grace
are ye saved
through
faith; and
that not of
yourselves:
it is the
gift of God
... |
2 Chronicles
7:14
If my
people,
which are
called by my
name, shall
humble
themselves,
and pray,
and seek my
face, and
turn from
their wicked
ways; then
will I hear
from Heaven,
and will
forgive
their sin,
and will
heal their
land. |
BIBLICAL FRUITS CHRISTIAN WORDS AND CHRISTIAN ACTIONS TEST YOU SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS BIBLE CONCERN
Mark 3:28-29
Verily I say
unto you,
All sins
shall be
forgiven
unto the
sons of men,
and
blasphemies
wherewith
soever they
shall
blaspheme:
But he that
shall
blaspheme
against the
Holy Ghost
hath never
forgiveness,
but is in
danger of
eternal
damnation. |
2 Peter
2:20-22
For if after
they have
escaped the
pollutions
of the world
through the
knowledge of
the Lord and
Saviour
Jesus
Christ, they
are again
entangled
therein, and
overcome,
the latter
end is worse
with them
than the
beginning.
For it had
been better
for them not
to have
known the
way of
righteousness,
than, after
they have
known it, to
turn from
the holy
commandment
delivered
unto them.
But it is
happened
unto them
according to
the true
proverb, The
dog is
turned to
his own
vomit again;
and the sow
that was
washed to
her
wallowing in
the mire. |
Hebrews
6:4-6
For it is
impossible
for those
who were
once
enlightened,
and have
tasted of
the Heavenly
gift, and
were made
partakers of
the Holy
Ghost, And
have tasted
the good
word of God,
and the
powers of
the world to
come, If
they shall
fall away,
to renew
them again
unto
repentance;
seeing they
crucify to
themselves
the Son of
God afresh,
and put Him
to an open
shame. |
BIBLICAL FRUITS ARE CHRISTIAN WORDS AND CHRISTIAN ACTIONS YOU SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS BIBLE WARNING
Blasphemy of the Holy
Spirit is a very
sensitive issue. There
are so many people who
believe that they’ve
ruined the hope of their
salvation because sin in
their life continues,
even after they’ve been
saved or reborn. Nothing
could be further from
the TRUTH. Remember, sin
is sin
because you know
you’re doing something
wrong.
James 4:17
Therefore to
him that
knoweth to
do good, and
doeth it
not, to him
it is sin. |
If you did something
that you didn’t know was
wrong, it wouldn’t be
sin. When you sin,
subconsciously (or maybe
even consciously
sometimes) you’re
saying, I know this is
wrong, and I’m gonna do
it anyway. Yes, it’s
ugly and shameful and
you downright hate to
admit it, but it’s the
TRUTH.
Somehow, we don’t want
our sins to be “bad”
sins ... We feel like we
can live within our own
skin more comfortably if
we think that we only
tell “white” lies.
Friend, there’s no such
thing. Sin is sin. It’s
all bad. If you look at
sin in general, you
could probably say that
the majority of sins are
repeat offenses.
Unfortunately, when
you’re saved, or reborn,
sin doesn’t magically
disappear from life. You
don’t become perfect.
But your attitude, and
your determination to
avoid and resist and
reject temptation is
what changes. You still
have the sin “gene” from
our earthly ancestors
Adam and Eve, but when
you’re reborn in the
spirit, you decide to
manage your “inherent
gene” differently.
Blasphemy of the Holy
Spirit is when you
forsake Him and NEVER
return.
That is the only
unforgivable sin.
Everyone sins, and I’ll
tell you one of my
favorite things again,
Our sin can’t possibly
outdo God’s Grace. Don’t
ever forget that. If
you’re worried that
you’ve fallen away and
blasphemed the Holy
Spirit, chances are you
haven’t, because if you
did, you wouldn’t care.
You certainly wouldn't
be concerned about
whether or not you're
virtuous if you did. If
you’re still worried,
why not try charity, as
Peter suggests.
BIBLICAL FRUITS CHRISTIAN WORDS AND CHRISTIAN ACTIONS STUDY YOU SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS BIBLE DANGER
1 Peter 4:8
And above
all things
have fervent
charity
among
yourselves:
for charity
shall cover
the
multitude of
sins. |
Be careful that once you
change your life, and
are reborn, that you do
not judge others who
haven’t found TRUTH yet
... Or even still, those
who know TRUTH, but
haven't decided yet to
dedicate their lives to
it.
WOW ...
... Is a word you may
say to yourself after
reading that last
sentence ... Because
once we see the light,
we feel so compelled to
help others, and
sometimes even over-help
those who have yet to
see the light that we've
seen, or have only seen
a glimmer. But let me
ask you a question.
Let's just say, for the
sake of example, that
when you found Jesus and
opened your heart to the
TRUTH, you were 37 years
old. When you were 28,
chances are you knew who
Jesus was ... In fact,
you probably knew quite
a bit about Him, and if
you didn't, you had the
opportunity and the
resources to find out.
But you just weren't
ready yet. You
chose not to
find out. And perhaps
you can look back and
find reasons why you
didn't accept and choose
Christianity as your
walk until you did.
There may have been
experiences you had to
go through that would
allow you to know
something first hand in
order to help another
struggling soul that
will go through the same
thing in the future.
There may have been so
much worldly influence
with a stronghold on
you, that you couldn't
have devoted your life
without doubting that
you did the right thing,
or that you were missing
something greener back
on the other side of the
fence.
My question to you is
this ... Isn't it the
epitome of hypocrisy to
judge another for not
choosing to be reborn
when WE are ready
for them to be? Do not
they get to choose their
own time, as we did? Was
smoking cigarettes
A-okay only
until you
quit, and then once you
quit, THEN it
became unhealthy for all
mankind? How did that
happen???
Yes, it is our duty and
desire to spread the
Word of God. Yes, it is
our duty and desire to
help lost souls to find
their way into or back
into the flock. Yes it
is our duty and desire
to warn those we see are
astray. NO, it is
not our duty or desire
to judge anyone who
doesn't do what we want,
when we want it.
Everyone is different.
Everyone's time is
different. Everyone's
emotions and
circumstance and heart
is different. Don't ever
forget that you were
once where they are now,
and if anyone judged you
for not accepting the
Lord as your Savior
immediately upon
invitation, it may have
(and probably did in
many cases) scared you
into closing your mind
and heart to it until
another shepherd with
more understanding and
patience and mercy came
along to guide you with
more tender loving care,
or maybe not even
another shepherd, but
just another time in
your life when YOU had
more understanding and
patience and a clearer
understanding of mercy.
BIBLICAL FRUITS CHRISTIAN WORDS AND CHRISTIAN ACTIONS FACTS YOU SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS BIBLE DISCOVERY
Those who are lost can't
understand as you
understand until they
are reborn and their
spirit is renewed.
John 3:3
Jesus
answered and
said unto
him,
Verily,
verily, I
say unto
thee, Except
a man be
born again,
he cannot
see the
Kingdom of
God. |
But to judge them, is
not what the Lord taught
us.
Matthew
7:1-5
Judge not,
that ye be
not judged.
For with
what
judgment ye
judge, ye
shall be
judged: and
with what
measure ye
mete, it
shall be
measured to
you again.
And why
beholdest
thou the
mote that is
in thy
brother's
eye, but
considerest
not the beam
that is in
thine own
eye? Or how
wilt thou
say to thy
brother, Let
me pull out
the mote out
of thine
eye; and,
behold, a
beam is in
thine own
eye? Thou
hypocrite,
first cast
out the beam
out of thine
own eye; and
then shalt
thou see
clearly to
cast out the
mote out of
thy
brother's
eye.
BIBLICAL FRUITS CHRISTIAN WORDS AND CHRISTIAN ACTIONS FEAR YOU SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS LESSON
|
Judgment, and warning
are two different
things. Once you know
TRUTH, it is your
obligation to
bring the light to
others and blow the
trumpet ... Without
judgment.
I must
accentuate this once
more because it is so
important, it is our
duty to warn, but not to
judge, and it is often a
very difficult operation
to present warning to
lost sheep without
sounding judgmental.
Pray about it and don't
be afraid to tell a
sheep that you are
warning and not judging,
and remind them that you
were once lost too. They
will trust you more for
it.
Matthew
10:16
Behold, I
send you
forth as
sheep in the
midst of
wolves: be
ye therefore
wise as
serpents,
and harmless
as doves. |
God loves all of His
children. He wants
everyone to
have the chance to renew
their lives and not be
lost sheep anymore.

Ezekiel
33:11
Say unto
them, As I
live, saith
the Lord
GOD, I have
no pleasure
in the death
of the
wicked; but
that the
wicked turn
from his way
and live:
turn ye,
turn ye from
your evil
ways ... |
Help bring the lost back
to His flock. He is
depending on you. You
are His watchman.
Ezekiel
33:6, 8-9
But if the
watchman see
the sword
come, and
blow not the
trumpet, and
the people
be not
warned; if
the sword
come, and
take any
person from
among them,
he is taken
away in his
iniquity;
but his
blood will I
require at
the
watchman's
hand ...
When I say
unto the
wicked, O
wicked man,
thou shalt
surely die;
if thou dost
not speak to
warn the
wicked from
his way,
that wicked
man shall
die in his
iniquity;
but his
blood will I
require at
thine hand.
Nevertheless,
if thou warn
the wicked
of his way
to turn from
it; if he do
not turn
from his
way, he
shall die in
his
iniquity;
but thou
hast
delivered
thy soul.
