What the Bible says about Jesus

The True Light "In him, (the Lord Jesus) was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world,…the world didn’t recognize him." John 1:4,9.
The Good Seed and the Weeds The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seeds in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away. Matthew 13:24,25.

The Marriage of the Lamb

Written and published by Jean Louis

Revelation 19:6-10. KJV 

And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.

And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God. And I fell at his feet to worship him.
And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

This morning as I was re-reading some of the commentaries in my blog, I came upon this one (12 de jul. de 2013) that elicited the following response from the reader: " Thank you brother for adjusting the compass needle to the True North."

Indeed, Jesus made it simple so that a child could understand his words when He told Nicodemus: "You must be born again."
 
If someone were to ask you: Are you married? A simple yes or no would be enough to ascertain your marital status. and yet so many don´t know,when it comes to answer if asked if they are a christian, iif they know Jesus. Maybe, they are not sure or hide this simple relational fact with fudging because of doubts, fear and peer pressure.
 
In the biblical creation account of Adam and Eve, God "created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day they were created." Genesis 5:2.
 
Either you are married or you are not. Nothing complicated about that. This is a fact as much and as important to know and be sure as much as the answer to the question: Are you a man or a woman?


In order to be married, you have to be asked, invited into someone´s life and seal the commitment with a simple "yes or I do.
" in the presence of witnesses. See how simple it is! 
 
Now, translate this into Jesus coming to you and asking you: do you want to be my bride to marry me and spend the rest of eternity with me?

I will take care of you for all eternity, wash you clean, provide the wedding garment and be with you, lovingly performing the duties of a faithful husband all the days of your life, never leaving you, nor forsaking you because I love you and I already paid the price .The choice is up to you.

Thanksgiving and Prayer
12giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light. 13He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.…
Colossians 1:13

So, rescued from darness into light or changed frmo one state of blindness into an enlightened state of seeing  translated into simple language, this is what the statement” you must be born again” means to me. ” 

Are you born again?” is indeed a most important question to ask. In fact It´s a matter of life and death. 

Maranatha. Jean-Louis.

I use the word "translate" a lot, I know. Of course, I am a translator by choice of trade. One thing I forgot to mention: Soon I hope, we will be witnesses of the most stunning prestidigitation feat of all, the translation of innumerable crowds of anxiously awaiting passengers on the most wonderful, exciting voyage of all times from one plane and time of existence to their eternal abode because their ticket was purchased in advance by none other than the Lord Jesus Christ, God Himself according to his promise as recorded in his Word. 

So, let´s keep it simple. One question: Are you married? or soon to be married? Yes or no?
