Jesus And Abraham

They answered him, “Abraham is our father.” Jesus said to them, “If you were Abraham’s children, you would do what Abraham did,  but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth which I heard from God; this is not what Abraham did.  You do what your father did.” They said to him, “We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.”  Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I proceeded and came forth from God; I came not of my own accord, but He sent me.  Why do you not understand what I say? It is because you cannot bear to hear my word.  You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.  But, because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.  Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?  He who is of God hears the words of God; the reason why you do not hear them is that you are not of God.”

 

Truly, truly, I say to you, if any one keeps my word, he will never see death.”  The Jews said to Him, “Abraham died, as did the prophets; and you say, ‘If any one keeps my word, he will never taste death.’  Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? And the prophets died! Who do you claim to be?”  Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth as Isaiah prophesied that myself, Emmanuel – God in the midst of creation, in the midst of the universe and in the midst of humanity – shall be born in human body.  Your father Abraham rejoiced that he was to see my day; he saw it and was glad.”  The Jews then said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham  Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.”  So they took up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid Himself, and went out of the temple. Before Abraham I was, because I have being in existence before Abraham was born and because I have reincarnated here on earth, several times, doing my work of salvation. John 8:39-59

 

The True Children Of Abraham

Apostle Matthew: Son of man, themselves said that they are the children of Abraham?

The Head: Yes.

Apostle Matthew: Then, why is that they … rejected the word of God?

The Head: They are the children of Abraham in flesh and were not children of Abraham in spirit, because they did do what God said. They did not understand what Jesus was telling them. They did not follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit, for themselves to become children of Abraham in spirit and in the flesh. They were children of Abraham in the flesh, and were not children of Abraham in spirit.

Apostle Matthew:  They thought that if themselves died, they should be saved?

The Head:  What they were bearing in their mind was that since they were the children of Abraham, once they died, they have the passport to heaven, that they have the right to enter heaven. But it is not so, because it is only by obedience and by doing the will of God that person can enter the kingdom of heaven.

 

Apostle Matthew: Son of man, Abraham loves all his children. But the people Abraham loves most are the people who obey word of God, by doing the will of God - and by keeping all the laws, times and festivals of God. Son of man, such people are the children of Abraham, and they are the people who are the children of Abraham in spirit and are special people.

Do you understand this?

All of them are the children of Abraham, but there are select children of Abraham.

The Head: The select and special children of Abraham are the people who are the children of Abraham in spirit, who do what God said, who do the will of God Almighty, who keep His laws, statutes and judgments.

 

Very Important Points:

1.     The people were challenging and disbelieving Jesus, because of the evil spirits which have taken possession of them, even without their knowing it.

2.     Satan has misled all the religious leaders into forming all kinds of religions and numerous churches, ministries and fellowships, which are the multiplicity of idolatry.

3.     Whoever that follows the religious leaders, or their beliefs and practices, have nothing to gain from them, except confusion, lies and fabrications.

4.     The practice of freedom of worship, was introduced by Satan, because humanity are spiritually blind, ignorant and lazy.

5.     There is no freedom of worship in heaven and on earth, because God has specified how He should be worshipped.

6.     Whoever that worships God must worship Him in spirit and in truth.

7.     And whoever that does not believe in Jesus and His blood do not, and cannot, enter the kingdom of heaven.

8.     The same problem of disbelief in the teachings and works of Jesus the Lord and Saviour continues today.

9.     People do not believe in the teachings and publications of the same Jesus, who has reincarnated as the man who saw God face to face, because people are spiritually blind, ignorant and lazy.

10.            Be warned!

 

True Disciples

Jesus then said to the Israelites who had believed in him, “If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”  They answered him, “We are descendants of Abraham, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How is it that you say, ‘You will be made free’?”

 

 Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave to sin.  The slave does not continue in the house for ever; the son continues for ever.  So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.  I know that you are descendants of Abraham; yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.  I speak of what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have heard from your father.” John 8:31-38

 

Explanations:

1.     A sinner is a slave to sin, because he does the will of the Devil, even when he does not want to commit sin. Also, he suffers the penalty for committing sin, in his present or future lifetimes here on earth. This is a fact which majority of humanity do not know.

2.     The slave does not continue in the house forever, because the evil spirits that cause sin mislead him away from heaven into the hell fire.

3.     The son continues in the house forever, because they are the Saints of the living God, who abide by the rules and regulations of the family, which are the laws of God.

4.     Even in this end time, which is the last opportunity for repentance, people do not want to hear the word of God. They hate to hear the Truth and are not preparing for rapture.

5.     Rather, they are busy following Satan by every worldly lifestyle, into the hell fire.

6.     The word of God is not in them because they refuse to hear and receive it. Humanity reject the end time messages and warnings from God.

7.     Only the person who comes from heaven can teach the Truth. But, the teeming world populations are busy following the false imaginations of their ignorant religious leaders, which are the figments of imaginations, the fabrications of falsehood and the deceptions of the enemy.
