Building your house on the word from God

Are you going to visit family and friends on Christmas holiday?

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Won't that be fun!  Catching up with all the latest, what they are doing and what they have achieved of late?  Seeing what they think about the economy and the coming elections?  Sharing the latest football events?  Sharing movies and books?
 
Proverbs 10:19  In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise.
 
Or have you purposed in your heart to speak those things put into your mind by the Holy Spirit of God?

What the Bible says about divorce and remarriage

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
The Bible gives different rules concerning divorce for a man and divorce for a woman.
 
For men:  The only scriptural reason given for a man to divorce his wife is if she is unfaithful.
 
Matthew 5:32  (Jesus says)  But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
 
- If a man divorces a faithful wife and she remarries, it will be adultery but the first husband will be the cause of the faithful wife's adultery.
- The man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
 
💥💥💥
 
For women:  There is no scripture which permits a woman to divorce her husband.  Paul says it is a commandment of the Lord that the wife not leave her husband.  But if she does leave her husband she is to remain unmarried or return to her husband.
 
I Corinthians 7:10-11  And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:
 
11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.
 
💥💥💥
 
When believer is married to an unbeliever.
 
I Corinthians 7  (Paul says)
 
12 But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
 
13 And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.
 
14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
 
15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.
 
16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?
 
(Paul is telling the believer to live as a Christian and if the unbelieving mate is content to live in peace with the believer, let the unbeliever continue.  But if the unbeliever is not content with the believer, let the unbeliever depart. As a believer, do not divorce the unbeliever.  But if the unbeliever is not content to live in peace, let the unbeliever depart.)
 
💥💥💥
Jesus says this about divorce and remarriage.
 
Mark 10
 
6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.
 
7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;
 
8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.
 
9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
 
10 And in the house HIS disciples asked HIM again of the same matter.
 
11 And HE saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.
 
12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.
 
💥💥💥
 
"Till death do us part" is real.  
 
For how can one flesh be separated?
 
💥💥💥
 
Much evil takes place on this earth in the last days before Jesus returns.

Fighting to hold on to God when you are discouraged

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Revelation 12:12 ...  Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
 
💥💥💥
 
Recently, for several days, devils fought against me causing me to have to fight to hold on.  I would fight and be all right and then a wave of depression would hit me again and I had to make myself hold on to God and not let go and not give in to depression.
 
I think the end times will bring torments to us and we must be "strong in the Lord", strong in the Word and strong in the power of God.
 
Torments come to me when I see the evil ways of people of the world and especially evils of people who attend churches and say "Jesus is Lord", but they do not live by the Word of God, the Holy Bible.
 
We must uphold the Word even when they live by evils, opposite to the Word.
 
Ephesians 6
 
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of HIS might.
 
(Be strong "in the Lord", in the Word, in the promises of God, and in HIS power, not in your own power.)
 
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
 
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
 
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
 
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
 
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
 
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
 
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
 
💥💥💥
 
Some Christians are naive, thinking they know so much they will never fall.
 
I know we live in very deceptive and dangerous times.
 
I slipped into a trap by visiting with a long time Baptist who brought great discouragement to me.  I then had to claw my way back.  Those things she spoke kept coming back to me for several days and I was grieved and very sad.
 
2 Timothy 3
 
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
 
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
 
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
 
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
 
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

Being friends with unbelievers?

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...
 
I care very much about 3 individuals who are church goers but likely not really of God.  I find each time they show up briefly, the doors close quickly.  Often I am praying for help from God and usually they disappear for a season after I pray.  (I freely share scripture and things God has taught me when I am with them but there is no evidence that these things help them at all.)
 
Paul says:
 
I Corinthians 2:14  But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
 
💥💥💥
 
2 Corinthians 6
 
14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
 
(After I was born again in 1975, I was so changed by God that I no longer had anything in common with the world or the people of the world whose interest was in worldly things and worldly achievements.  I just wanted to learn about God and be around people of God.  My previous interests vanished.)
 
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
 
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be MY people.
 
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean; and I will receive you,
 
(I found this, verse 17, is what I had to do.  And when someone in the church group showed no real interest in hearing what God had done and no evidence they followed the Word of God, I found I couldn't be around such persons and had to leave them alone. I found many in churches who didn't have an interest in following God.  I believe it is in this scripture: 2 Timothy 3:5  Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. They attended church as I did.  They appeared to read the Bible and professed Jesus, The Word, to be their Lord.  But I could see they weren't really following the Word of God in their own lives.  So I ended up "turning away" from them as Paul said to do.)

When Pam’s great-aunt Eunice was born again in her latter years after being a long time Baptist

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
This is a story of Pam Padgett's long time Baptist relative, aunt Eunice.
 
Pam says:
 
Several years ago my Dad's relatives arranged a family reunion.  My Dad and 2 sisters came from Oklahoma to Colorado to attend the reunion, and I went with them.
 
Among the many relatives was my great-aunt Eunice, who was probably in her 80's at that time.  Aunt Eunice was a long-time Baptist.
 
During the reunion, Aunt Eunice got up and, very excitedly, announced to everyone that she had recently been born again!  
 
As Aunt Eunice went on talking about this, her eldest daughter, Anita, who happened to be sitting next to me, leaned over to me and said that her mother had just recently started saying these things and that she didn't know why her mother doing this.  She said that everyone knows her mother has always been a Christian, working at the church often, cleaning and doing whatever needed to be done.  
 
Anita was clearly very puzzled, and maybe even a little concerned, that her mother had begun saying that she had recently been born again.   But I was joyful hearing what Aunt Eunice said!
 
In the car on the way back to my house, I said to my Dad and sisters, "Wasn't what Aunt Eunice said wonderful?"  
 
My Dad said, "What was that?"  Neither of my sisters seemed to know what I was talking about either.
 
I told them that Aunt Eunice had announced that she was recently born again.  None of them showed any interest in this and went on talking about other things.  At that time, none of them were born again.
 
I Corinthians 2:14   But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
 
(My Dad was born again some years later, and I've had a dream that causes me to believe one my sisters will at some point be born again, for in the dream this sister showed understanding of the following scripture:)
 
I Peter 5:8-9  Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 
Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 
 
Jesus said:
 
John 3:3  Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
 
(Things of the kingdom of God cannot be understood unless you are born again.)

”It doesn’t matter”, says the unbeliever about scripture

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
(Comments by Joan Boney)
 
When I was in my 60's, I was engaged to be married to a man who said he was a Christian.
 
He said Pharaoh was on the banks of the Red Sea when the waters returned to normal and killed his men in the sea.
 
When I told him, this was not correct, he said, "That's what the movie made by Cecil B Demille showed."
 
I took a Bible and began looking this up and Howard said, "Oh ... it really doesn't matter."
(So many people who join churches think scripture doesn't really matter today.)
 
I continued looking this up in Bible, and handed the Bible to Howard, and had him read this scripture:
 
Exodus 15
 
1 Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the LORD, for HE hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath HE thrown into the sea.
 
2 The LORD is my strength and song, and HE is become my salvation: HE is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt HIM.
 
3 The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is HIS name.
 
4 Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath HE (God) cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.
 
5 The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone.
 
6 THY right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in power: THY right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.
 
7 And in the greatness of thine excellency THOU hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: THOU sentest forth THY wrath, which consumed them as stubble.
 
8 And with the blast of THY nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
 
9 The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
 
10 THOU didst blow with THY wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters.
 
19 For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the LORD brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.
 
After Howard read this from the Bible, I said, "Now what do you think?"
 
He said he guessed the movie was wrong.
 
(We broke up a couple of months before we were scheduled to be married.)

We will not have fleshly bodies in heaven. The apostle John tells us what it is like in heaven.

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
I Corinthians 15
 
44  It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
 
God is a spirit.
 
46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
 
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
 
48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
 
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
 
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
 
💥💥💥
 
We will not all die.
 
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep (die), but we shall all be changed,
 
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
 
(Blink:  That is how fast we will be changed to our new spiritual body.)
 
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
 
💥💥💥
 
What is is like in heaven:
 
Revelation 21
 
1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
 
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
 
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and HE will dwell with them, and they shall be HIS people, and God HIMSELF shall be with them, and be their God.
 
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
 
(Since we will not have these fleshly bodies in heaven, there will be no death, no sorrow, no crying, no pain ... for we will have no flesh.)
 
5 And HE that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new.

The end time ”falling away” spoken of by the apostle Paul in 2 Thessalonians 2

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
In the Bible, the apostle Paul told us in the end time churches would fall away from scripture, speaking perverse things, (Acts 20:29-30), and men would set themselves up as gods in the church. (2 Thessalonians 2)
 
This is that spirit of antichrist that moves into church groups and sets up doctrines opposite to doctrines of Christ in the Bible.
 
It is antichrist in the churches of the end times.
 
Acts 20:29-30  (Paul speaking to the elders of the church at Ephesus)  For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
 
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4  Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day (of the Lord) shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
 
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
 
This "falling away" happens before Jesus returns.
 
God said to me:  "The falling away are not people leaving the churches.  The falling away are churches leaving the scriptures."
 
This falling away from scripture has been taking place in various churches for several decades and is all over this world now.
 
The stage is set for the returning of Jesus since the falling away of 2 Thessalonians is happening in churches today all over the world ... churches falling away from various scriptures and setting up doctrines opposite to the scripture in their church groups.
 
Explained in this podcast.

We can be worse than we were before if we turn back to an area of sin

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
2 Peter 2
 
20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
 
21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.

God restores my soul

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Recently I had a conversation with a church woman and found I was almost destroyed by her.
 
God greatly restored my soul when I read this scripture in the Bible.
 
I Thessalonians 4
 
13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
 
14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with HIM.
 
15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
 
16 For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
 
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
 
18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Choosing to build your life on the Word of God

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Jesus says:
 
Matthew 7
 
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
 
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
 
💥💥💥
 
Matthew 7
 
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
 
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
 
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
 
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
 
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
 
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

I Thessalonians 5:21  Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
 
Romans 12:2  And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind (to the Word of God), that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Matthew 7
 
21 Not every one that saith unto ME, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of MY Father which is in heaven.
 
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in THY name? and in THY name have cast out devils? and in THY name done many wonderful works?
 
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from ME, ye that work iniquity.
 
(The works will be "iniquity" unless it is God who has told us to do that thing which we do.)
 
24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of MINE, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
 
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
 
26 And every one that heareth these sayings of MINE, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
 
27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

God spoke to me but I didn’t understand it was God, I thought it was my own idea

John 10, Jesus says:
 
27 My sheep hear MY voice, and I know them, and they follow MY:
 
💥💥💥
 
I have heard the voice of Jesus many times.  Sometimes I know immediately it is God speaking to me and when that has been the case I follow what HE tells me immediately.
 
Other times I have thought this is my idea and failed to recognize it is God speaking that thought to me.
 
Even when I miss the fact that the thought that came into my mind was from God, HE has straightened out situations, in time. Sometimes it has taken as much as 3 1/2 years for me to understand.  But God got me where he was telling me to go in spite of me!
 
It is much better if we can recognize when the thought that comes into our mind is from God and act on that thought immediately!
 
In this Podcast, I will share some examples with you.

Be not conformed to this world but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind to the Word of God. (Romans 12:2)

 
Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
* Not conformed to this world ... don't copy this world.  don't live the way of this world or by worldly sayings.
 
Some people try to be "fashionable", dressing to current style.  But for women especially, this could lead you to go against that which God teaches women in the Bible.
 
2 Timothy 2:9  (Paul says)  In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
 
10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
 
A few years ago, there was a dress which was made to give the image that the woman's underclothing were showing on top ... One of our church group enjoyed being fashionable and she appeared wearing that type of dress.  I said to her, "You should not be wearing that."  (it was sexually suggestive and had even been formed by the dress manufacture deliberately to be that way.)
 
* modest apparel:  dressing so as to avoid impropriety, especially to avoid attracting sexual attention to one's self;  clothing not revealing or emphasizing or drawing attention to an area of their body

Once my cleaning lady said, "Don't you ever feel you have to keep up with the Jones's?"
 
I was shocked and replied, "What?"  She repeated her statement and I thought about what she said and examined myself and replied, "No ... I don't think I do."
 
(I was driving a 20 year old car at the time.)
 
Today I have a new car, but I bought it to try to get a smoother ride because I've had several bones broken through the years and I often have pain when we drive over some of the highways.  My old car had air-suspension and rode very differently from the SUV's.  I found a car that has a good air-suspension ride and bought that because of the need for a more gentle riding car, not to impress anyone with the car I drive.
 
The motive with which we do things can be sin or might not be sin.  We just need to judge ourselves.  Why am I doing this?  What is my motive?
 
I Corinthians 11:31  For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
 
💥💥💥💥💥
 
There are several scriptures telling Christians how to live on this earth concerning money.  When we renew our minds to the Bible, we won't live the way this world lives.
 
Deuteronomy 28
 
2  And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.
 
9 The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto Himself, as HE hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, and walk in HIS ways.
 
10 And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of thee.
 
(People will refrain from cursing in front of you and will not tell "off color" stories when you are there for they will feel you are a godly person.)
 
12 The LORD shall open unto thee HIS good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.
 
13 And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:
 
💥💥💥
 
You will not feel you have to vote when you renew your mind to the word of God.
 
2 John
 
8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.
 
9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
 
10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
 
11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
 
Be careful concerning wishing a person "well" for if that person goes out from your house and does evil, you become a partaker of his "evil deeds" if you have wished that person well.
 
💥💥💥
 
The motive behind our actions:
 
If we purchase something trying to outdo another person we likely sin ... apparel, cars, clothing, houses.
 
If we are trying to impress other people we likely sin.
 
As we renew our minds to Word of God, we have an opportunity to change the way we think, conforming ourselves to godliness.
 
I often pray this over myself:  Psalm 51:10  Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
 
💥💥💥
 
I Timothy 6  (concerning money and possessions of this world)
 
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
 
7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
 
8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
 
9 But they that will be rich (have a lot of money in savings and worldly possessions) fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
 
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil (following after money): which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
 
11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
 
12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.
 
13 I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth (makes alive) all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;
 
14 That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:
 
15 Which in his times HE shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
 
16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
 
17 Charge them that are rich in this world (have money saved), that they be not highminded (arrogant) , nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;
 
18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;
 
19 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

Living faith in God, faith in ”The Word” that comes from the Holy Spirit of God

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...
 
I Corinthians 3:16  Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
 
💥💥💥
 
The church building is not the church.  It is only a building made by human hands.
 
We, the individuals, who are born again by God are the church!  We are the "temple of God" and the Holy Spirit of God lives in each of us and we follow the Word of God by the Holy Spirit of God, not by our minds by hunting for a scripture.
 
It is not that we hunt a scripture to live by.  We hear that scripture in our mind as it is brought to us by God by the Holy Spirit WHO lives in us.  We follow the Spirit of God.
 
Romans 8:14  For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
 
This is completely different from us taking a Bible and hunting for a scripture in time of need.
 
I once attended a church named, "Word of Faith."  The Bible teacher at that church said:  "We talk about faith in God but Joan Boney lives faith."
 
I had no idea I was different from the other people who attended that church group.  But then God opened my eyes to see.  They were learning to hunt a scripture with their own mind.  God taught me to hear from HIS spirit and then follow by faith what the Holy Spirit spoke to me.
 
Romans 8:1  There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

God prepared for my old age without my even knowing it was happening until years later

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
After I was born again in 1975, I followed scripture.  I never tried to get money, I just focused on scripture, doing that, one verse at a time, and when I followed scripture the by-product was money and things, which came to me automatically.
 
Thus:  The Lord (the scripture, the Word) is my shepherd.
 
I shall not want.  (Psalm 23)
 
This podcast should show that!
 
Joshua 1:8  This book of the law (the Word of God) shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

A minister of God has a right to live off the gospel but the apostle Paul chose to work at a secular job and earn his living

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
I Corinthians 9  (Paul says)
 
1 Am I not an apostle? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are not ye my work in the Lord?
 
2 If I be not an apostle unto others, yet doubtless I am to you: for the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord.
 
3 Mine answer to them that do examine me is this,
 
4 Have we not power to eat and to drink?
 
5 Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and as the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?
 
6 Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear working?
 
7 Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?
 
8 Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also?
 
9 For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?
 
10 Or saith HE it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.
 
11 If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?
 
12 If others be partakers of this power over you, are not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.
 
13 Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar?
 
14 Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.
 
15 But I have used none of these things: neither have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for it were better for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.
 
Paul earned his living as a tentmaker.
 
Acts 18
 
After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;
 
2 And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them.
 
3 And because he was of the same craft, he (Paul) abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.

When I closed my secular business in American Indian Arts to go into the ministry July 31, 1979, I lived off the money from the merchandise that sold as I closed the business, $22,000.
 
For the next 6 months, I remained at my apartment in Dallas and paid for my needs with some of that money, while I waited for God to show me what I was to do in the ministry.
 
On January 10, 1980, as I waited, I was asleep in the night when a very loud trumpet like voice spoke three words into my ear:  "Hartford, Seattle, KWJS"
 
By this God put me on radio to exhort the church.

Bible says, we will not be tempted above that we are able

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
I Corinthians 10:13  There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

I believe this means:  God will not allow to come to us in this life more than we are able to stand,

No man in Bible called himself ”Reverend”

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
As we think on the word given us by the Holy Spirit, that will cause us to go in the way God shows us in the Holy Bible.  Certainly that way will end up being a way of success where things turn out well in the sight of God  according to God's plan for us and HIS purpose.
 
The apostle Paul says:
 
Philippians 2:5-7  Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:  Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:  But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
💥💥💥
Jesus came to this earth, not as a "god", though Jesus was God as God's first begotten Son.
 
But Jesus didn't exalt Himself by things such as wearing hats and robes to say "Look at Me.  I'm religious. I'm the Son of God. Pay respect to Me."
 
Jesus did not call himself "Reverend" and such, to cause humans to think HIM to be something, though HE was something.
 
Those who were of God would know HIM by HIS works and word.
 
Jesus' word was with power and authority and by HIS WORD the people of God knew HIM.
 
HE did not exalt himself among men, but rather "HE made himself of no reputation."
 
Paul tells us to do this same thing.
 
When we speak to other people, do we try to make them think we are something special?  Do we structure what we say to bring glory to us?  Do we try to exalt ourselves in their eyes?
 
We probably tried to do that earlier in our lives, going in the way of this world.
 
But now, do we do that? 
 
💥💥💥 
 
For several weeks, I spent time with the verse where Jesus made Himself of no reputation.  I kept it before me, thinking of how humans try to impress people.  I wanted to do this scripture and purposed to go an opposite way to the flesh of man.
 
As we think on an instruction from Bible and think on how that instruction is often violated and have a desire to do the verse, I believe God enables us to do what is right in HIS eyes.
 
And as we do that verse over and over as we live in this life, we develop a good root system and lay a good foundation as we walk on this earth.
 
💥💥💥
 
Philippians 2   And being found in fashion as a man, HE humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
 
"Not my will but THY will be done."
 
Jesus did not want to go to the cross.  Three times HE prayed that "this cup" be removed from HIM if possible.  But Jesus saw it was God's way.  Jesus also knew HIS cross would cause the scripture to be fulfilled. So Jesus chose to lay down HIS life because it was God's will for Him.
 
My own plan for myself was nothing like God's will for me.
 
I wanted to marry.  But that was not going to be what God designed for my life.  I fought God for many years. Finally, I agreed to what God wanted me to do and after that, I was fine.
 
There are people today who make fun of me and say evil about me but I do ask God to forgive them for they don't realize that which I'm doing is what God ordained for me to do and to be, doing the work of a minister called by God.  It is by the will of God, as Paul spoke of himself when identifying himself to the church as an apostle, preacher, and teacher.
 
I am called by Jesus as an apostle and prophet to minister to the churches by the will of God ...
 
💥💥💥
 
What did ministers of the New Testament Bible call themselves?
 
When we are set in the church to do the work of a minister, it is good to define to the church the work that we do ... apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, teacher ... these are by the same Holy Spirit but are different types of works for the NT church.
 
This is what the Bible shows us about ministers of today's NT Church:
 
Ephesians 4  (Jesus set up the ministers and the NT Church from heaven)
 
8 Wherefore HE (Jesus) saith, When HE ascended up on high, HE led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.
 
11 And HE (Jesus) gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
 
💥💥💥
 
The New Testament Bible shows ministers identifying themselves as:  apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers.  (this is what ministers in today's church should do)
 
💥 Peter said: 
 
I Peter 1:1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
 
2 Peter 1:2  Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:
 
1 Peter 5:1  The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
 
Qualification of an elder in the NT Church:  (elder and bishop are the same office, interchangeable titles)
 
Titus 1 (Paul speaking to Titus)
 
5 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:
 
6 If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.
(This scripture shows Peter was married and had children for that is one qualification for being an elder in the NT church ... Also we have a scripture showing Jesus going to Peter's house and healing Peter's mother-in-law:  Matthew 8:14-15   And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, HE saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever. 15 And HE touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.)
 
Titus 1:
 
7 For a bishop (elder) must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre; 8 But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate; 9 Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.
 
💥💥💥
 
💥   Paul called himself "a preacher, apostle, and teacher".
 
2 Timothy 1:11  (Paul says of himself)  Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
 
Paul also wrote several epistles to the churches where he identified the offices to which he was called by Jesus:
 
Romans 1:1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
 
I Corinthians 1:1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God,
 
2 Corinthians 1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God,
 
Galatians 1:1  Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised HIM from the dead;)
 
Ephesians 1:1  Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:
 
Colossians 1:1  Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God,
 
I Timothy 1:1  Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope;
 
Titus 1:1  Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness;
 
💥💥💥
 
💥  Philip is called an "evangelist" ... and he had 4 daughters who prophesied (?prophets)
 
Acts 21
 
8 And the next day we that were of Paul's company departed, and came unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, which was one of the seven; and abode with him.
 
9 And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy.
 
💥💥💥
 
💥   In Book of Acts, several ministers are identified by their ministry office:
 
Acts 11  (New Testament prophets in the New Testament church)
 
27 And in these days came prophets from Jerusalem unto Antioch.
 
28 And there stood up one of them named Agabus, and signified by the Spirit that there should be great dearth throughout all the world: which came to pass in the days of Claudius Caesar.
 
29 Then the disciples, every man according to his ability, determined to send relief unto the brethren which dwelt in Judaea:
 
💥💥💥
 
Acts 15:32  And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them.
 
There are several other scriptures which refer to ministry offices in the NT Bible but always calling these offices: apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, teacher.
 
(In the New Testament Bible no man is called pope, archbishop; vicar, cardinal, nor is any man called "Reverend".)
 
We establish our churches and doctrines today by the New Testament Bible, doing as shown in these scriptures.
 
But many chuches today change the scripture and call their ministers by titles not in the New Testament Bible and teach their followers to do such.  I believe this will bring judgment from God upon those who fail to go by the New Testament Bible.
 
The New Testament Bible is "our handbook" showing what to do today in the churches of Jesus.

God said to me: ”People of the world want to be free to sin. Born again people want to be free from sin.”

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Psalm 111:10  The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: HIS praise endureth for ever.
 
💥💥💥
 
I once asked a woman who was raised in the Baptist church, "Didn't you ever have a fear of God?"
 
She replied, "No I haven't."
 
Somehow I've always known that to go in the way of the Word of God is a good thing and it would be fearful for me to go opposite to the direction told me by God.
 
This is a "fear of the Lord" ... a fear of the Word of God.
 
Jesus HIMSELF is "The Word."
 
Proverbs 4
 
18 But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.
 
19 The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.
 
20 My son, attend to MY words; incline thine ear unto MY sayings.
 
21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
 
22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
 
💥💥💥
 
A woman in our church group once told me her adult age son said, "The Bible is so legalistic."
 
This really troubled me, I told God.
 
Later God said to me: "People of the world want to be free to sin.  People of God want to be free from sin."
 
The Bible, the Word of God, is freedom from sin when we live by those scriptures!
 
Psalm 111:10 
 
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do HIS commandments: HIS praise endureth for ever.

Knowing the deep things of God

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
It is the Holy Spirit who knows the deep things of God.
 
1 Corinthians. 2
 
12 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
 
11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
 
I've found most church denominations know very little about God for so many of them do not have the Holy Spirit in them.  Even in the so called "spirit filled" churches, the Holy Spirit is often missing.
 
And while they speak of the Holy Spirit, I've never hear any preacher at any church teach about the work of the Holy Spirit.
 
Unless you are born again, the apostle Paul says you cannot know the things of God.
 
1 Corinthians 2:14  But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
 
I speak of some of these things on this Podcast.

Watered down church sermons and dead church meetings

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
I've often heard individuals speak of watered down messages at church.
 
The reason this happens is they omit some things because they know the scripture would offend some people.
 
For example:  This scripture would offend many in the congregation.
 
Jesus said, to the men in the church,  
 
Matthew 5:32  But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
 
- If a man divorces a faithful wife and she remarries she commits adultery and her husband who divorced that faithful wife will be the cause of her adultery.
- The man who marries a divorced woman also commits adultery.
 
(I've never heard this scripture spoken at any church group though this is what Jesus said and it is in the NT Bible.)
 
Also I've never heard the following spoken at any church group although Paul said this is a commandment of the Lord for the NT church.)
 
I Corinthians 7:10-11  And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.
 
(On this Podcast, other NT scriptures I have never heard taught at either the main church service nor at a church Bible class.)
