Jud 1:20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on
your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
Jud 1:21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking
for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
Jud 1:22 And of some have compassion, making a
difference:
Jud 1:23 And others save with fear, pulling them out
of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
Building ourselves UP.
No, not stroking our
own egos, but building ourselves up on our MOST HOLY FAITH.
We must build our
faith, the most holy faith we are given by our SAVIOR. We must build ourselves up on our most holy
faith PRAYING in the Holy Ghost. It is
ONLY through the Holy Spirit we have a way to pray to our God the Father, and
our God the Son.
Remember this--
Rom_8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our
infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the
Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be
uttered.
Is it any wonder we
should be praying in the Holy Spirit? The Spirit makes INTERCESSION for us.
We must KEEP
ourselves in the love of God.
We must LOOK for the
mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ- all the
way to eternal life!
We need to have
compassion on people- and it will make a difference. Even for those who seem
least grateful to have our compassion there is a difference made. The
difference is between God and them, it's not for us to question or worry about.
With others, they
ned MORE than compassion, they need fear- they need the reality of eternal
life- the fact that NOT EVERYONE WILL OBTAIN eternal life, but only those who
are Jesus'.
When we read about
'pulling them out of the fire- hating even the garment spotted by the
flesh' we have to realize that the fire
is the fate of NOT receiving eternal life. We have to PULL them out of that
fire, that awful future of being burned to non-existence. We have to HATE anything of the flesh that
keep us from the SPIRIT. There is a war
between the flesh and the Spirit in each of us.
Gal_5:17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and
the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so
that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
There is a fight
between the Spirit and the flesh so is there any wonder we are to HATE even the
garment spotted by the flesh? Clothed in
things of the flesh spiritually, kills us spiritually. We cannot give sway to ANYTHING of the
flesh!
Yet we do.
We need to REPENT.
We need to be
CONVERTED.
We need the HOLY
SPIRIT.
Please FATHER help
us, save us and help us to bring YOUR truth to others. If there are any we can give Your truth to,
help us to do that, speak through us, let the Spirit live in us all by YOUR
GRACE and MERCY, YOUR LOVE!
Help us!
