Eyes Upon Jesus
Hello and Greetings in Truth of God,
No man has seen God at any time. God is Spirit. The closest we came to seeing God was His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, who He sent to reconcile men unto God. Some men do not want reconciliation to God; they think they are god. But that does not change the truth; God was in Christ reconciling man unto Himself.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son...the gift of grace which is finished and true by the obedience of Jesus Christ, and it is truth in us by holy spirit within us, the believers. Well, we have the victory through the work, gift, and grace of God Almighty, and our hearts to believe and receive. Yes, we are prisoners to corrupt government, economic treachery, "national crisis in which half our country 'voted for revenge!' " Outrageous! revenge for what? Their government hand out is not big enough? My income only goes so far; I work and pay taxes. I do not receive or want government handouts if we didn't already work for them such as Social Security and Veterans benefits for my Dad. But, claiming anything else besides the work of Christ through God would be anti-truth, anti-Christ, anti-God, anti-the Word. Therefore we can:
"Turn our eyes upon JESUS;
Look full in HIS wonderful face;
And the things of Earth,
Will grow strangely dim;
In the LIGHT of HIS glory and GRACE."
That's all of the song I remember, and after the mammoth move I had to make caused by economic decline, recession, no decent jobs and overall Lazy American irresponsibility, haven't been able to find so many of my books and notes, but I will sing the stanza continuously until my mind is renewed and lining up with truth. My little children, you are not of the world, you are seated in the heavenlies with God and Christ by grace. "Line up" with who you really are, not with the trickery and lies of the world. GREATER is HE that is in you than he that is in the world. The fruit of the spirit is "love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law." Think holy spirit within. I have a whole lot of singing to do. Thanks and Amen.
