Only God's Holy Spirit Can Describe Who Jesus Is


"The Greek word for 'indescribable' is used nowhere else in the New Testament and is translated as meaning 'unutterable.'  It means that words cannot describe and no human can fully appreciate the magnitude of the gift." 

"Not capable of being altered or changed" is how Merriam Webster defines unutterable. God's gift, Jesus, will never change. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever! 

Man's imaginative portrayal of Jesus in "The Chosen" will never make Jesus anything or anyone who is different from the Jesus we know from the Holy Bible. Oh, that all would understand!  Only God's Holy Spirit can reveal who Jesus is to us, and we cannot express this revelation in any human language.

 "Not able to be expressed in words" is how  Oxford Languages Dictionary defines unspeakable. As Peter tells us, we rejoice in Jesus with inexpressible and glorious joy!

 I Peter 1:8 CSB Though you have not seen him, you love him; though not seeing him now, you believe in him, and you rejoice with inexpressible and glorious joy,

I Peter 1:8 KJV Whom having not seen, you love; in whom, though now you see him not, yet believing, you rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: 

No gift will ever compare to God's gift of Jesus.  A little church I often pass has a sign out this Christmas that says, "The Perfect Gift is here."

On the other side of the sign are the words, "God wants you for Christmas." 

Yes, God wants us to know His Son through the joy of His Holy Spirit.  Who Jesus is cannot be expressed with man's words and images.  Jesus is a heart revelation, not an historical drama revelation.

    This is so true! Everything we need to know about God, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit is in God's word. If He wanted us to know more, He would have written more. When we create our own image, it is a false idol and no matter how much we want it to be the true Jesus, it is not. Thank you for speaking the truth!!

Is Your Name Written There?

Image
Revelation 13:8 KJV   "All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast—all whose names have not been written in the Lamb’s book of life, the Lamb who was slain from the creation of the world."   I believe the ones in the tribulation time who have not accepted Jesus will be the ones whose names will not and can not be written in the Lamb's Book of Life. This is the only restriction. God knowing whose names are there is not a restriction on having one's name written there.  It is our choice to be part of the elect, but we MUST CHOOSE JESUS!  Repent today and ask Him to forgive your sins, and invite His Holy Spirit into your heart.  The Heavenly Father is waiting for you to come. He is ready to write your name in the Lamb's Book of Life. Come to the REAL JESUS today!  Isaiah 30:18 (NLT) But the Lord still waits for you to come to him so he can show his love and compassion. For the Lord is

Why I Cannot Believe in the Doctrine of Election

Image
There are a number of scriptures which use an inclusive noun when expressing God's love and forgiveness.  Examples are: all, anyone, whosoever. Revelation 13:8 states "And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him (the beast which is Satan) whose names are not written in the Book of Life of the Lamb (Jesus Christ) slain from the foundation of the world." KJV This verse  in Revelation states that Jesus was slain from the foundation of the world. It does not say names were written in the Lamb's Book of Life since the foundation of the world. "From the foundation of the world" modifies "Lamb" who was slain from the foundation of the world. Therefore, Revelation 13:8 cannot correctly be used to support the doctrine of election in which God chooses some for eternal life to the exclusion of others.  This verse does not say that  God only writes the  names of the elect in the Lamb's Book of Life. Of course He knows whose names will be there, b

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME SEVENTY-EIGHT TIMES ON FEBRUARY 16TH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🧁

     "When granted many years of life, growing old in age is natural, but growing old with grace is a choice." Billy Graham   PSALMS 92:12-15  The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Those who are planted in the house of the Lord Shall flourish in the courts of our God.   They shall still bear fruit in old age; They shall be fresh and flourishing, To declare that the Lord is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.   I was born again 70 years ago. Eight years after my mother gave me birth, Father God gave me His Holy Spirit because His Son, Jesus Christ was born of a virgin to die for my sins and give me a clean heart so that I could be born of His Spirit. Born Again!   The New Birth  (John 3:1-17)   There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.  This man came to Jesus by night and sa
