What the Bible says about Jesus
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.

Jesus´ Little Donkey
Written and published by Jean-Louis Mondon
What could I add?
That would only be redondant
Instead, better follow my destiny
The Way, the Truth and the Life
Which is only to surpass
Myself and not others
To not belittle my brothers
Or neighbors, but to spur them
On the path of righteousness,
By sailboat or on a camel.
However, I must confess
That my preferred transportation
My Master´s choice,
By the way of example
Of this little animal,
So cute and kind
For me no white horse,
With a wavy mane,
But this old and modest taxi
The unforgettable little gray donkey.

The Marriage of the Lamb
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.
Indeed, Jesus made it simple so that a child could understand his words when He told Nicodemus: "You must be born again."
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!
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
Merriam/Webster thesaurus
Transition noun. Definition of transition :as in transformation
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?

Teaching through Omission
Teaching through Omission
Written and published by Jean-Louis Mondon
It
is interesting that “sanctification” is absent in the doctines in
Romans 8:28-29. where we can find predestination, calling, justification
and glorification in that order.
If anything, it should appear between justification and glorification. That is if we understand it as a life long progressive sanctification which is what is mostly preached and taught in churches.
“For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality; that each one of you knows how to control his own body in holiness and honor, not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God.1 Thessalonians 4:3-5
But it appears
in other scriptures, this time after "being washed"
in 1 Corinthians
6:9-11. Here Paul is talking about positional sanctification.
“Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.”
…But because of his great love for us , God who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in our trespasses. It is by grace you have been saved! And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, 7in order that in the coming ages He might display the surpassing riches of His grace, demonstrated by His kindness to us in Christ Jesus.… Ephesians 2:4,5.
This is why it is of the utmost importance to read the whole counsel of God from cover to cover, from Genesis to Revelation.
Are there other examples where one side of the coin is hidden from the other side. Can we see the dark side of the moon?
But the Lord helps us understand the completeness of His word if we seek wisdom and the illumination of the Holy Spirit to help us in our search for the truth. Is the word rapture written in the Bible. Does it prove that such a doctrine doesn´t exist?
Let´s talk about appearance and how tricky it is.
“Abstain from all appearance of evil.” 1 Thessalonians 5:22
What about the other side of the coin?
If there is true righteousness, the righteousness of Christ that is imputed to us, is there a false righeousness or the appearance of good as demonstrated in the hypocrisy of the Pharisees? For further reading on the subject click on https://lightnseed.blogspot.com/2019/06/false-righteousness-and-true.html
These 2 concepts are not included in the same sentence because of the specific context.
The few examples cited above illustrate a certain type of attitudes that tends to exclude and judge others whose understanding are different from theirs.
I like the saying:it is better to dig a well 100 feet deep than dig 100 wells 1 foot deep.
It reminds me of Jesus teaching the parable of the wise and the foolish men.
The
House on the Rock
…47I will show you what he is like who
comes to Me and hears My words and acts on them: 48He
is like a
man building a
house, who dug
down deep and
laid his
foundation on
the rock.
When the
flood came, the
torrent crashed
against that
house but
could not
shake it,
because it
was well built.
49But the one who hears My words and does not act on them is like a
man who built his house on ground without a foundation. The torrent
crashed against that house, and immediately it fell—and great was
its destruction!”…
