Good
Morning and Merry Christmas!
In
the book of Revelation, The Lord Jesus tells the Apostle John what to write to
the "church" (chapters 2 & 3). We know that when the Bible
talks about the "church", it is referring to the "body of
Christ" (which is made up of all born again believers). It
is not referring to a certain "denomination". Denominations are
founded upon the "doctrines of men"....the Church
that the Bible talks about is founded upon the "blood of Jesus'! It
is that blood covenant that I want to talk about...my message
is not going to be about "denominational differences"! I was
just laying a foundation for The Lord to build upon! The Lord has taught
me to follow His example when I am teaching, and He always lays a
"foundation" first and then He builds on it!
Back to Revelation chapters 2 &
3....Jesus gave the same "instructions" over and over again!
He said that we need to "hear" (listen up, pay attention to) what
The Holy Spirit is saying to the "church"! Well, The
Holy Spirit is still speaking to the "church" today, and I
believe with all of my heart that one of the things that He is speaking to us
is for us to be "covenant" minded! God has really laid this on
my heart, especially during this CHRISTMAS season! We need to remember
that the reason Jesus was born was to bring us in to a "covenant"
with God.
Please stay with me on this....there is so
much more to share and I know that God will bring it all together for you as
we go along. I would like to go ahead and share with you right now everything
that the Lord has shown me and is still showing me about this
"covenant", but I will just have to "get a grip" and
be patient! After all, isn't that what I am always telling you all to
do?
Have
a Blessed Day!! (God has a
"covenant" with you!) In His Love, Luanne
