All I know is those who believe that Jesus is their God are in good company ... 28 Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!” 29 Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” That's all I have to offer.
Interesting. My Lord did not say, "Blessed YOU are, Thomas, because you have seen me and have believed." He SAID: "Blessed are those who have NOT seen and yet have believed." Thomas said he would NOT believe... unless he saw some proof (i.e., the holes... and thus, WITH IS EYES).
Some here are like that: they walk by SIGHT... as to what they see in the pages of a mere BOOK... processed pulp from a tree... the REST of which was thrown in the trash/burned... which they BLASPHEMOUSLY call "the Word of God"... rather than walking by FAITH... and listening to the One they CAN'T see with their eyes of flesh... ... THE Word of God... His SON! John 1:1, 14; Revelation 19:13
These "search" the scriptures, because they THINK that by means of THEM... they will have everlasting life. Yet, the scriptures BEAR WITNESS TO CHRIST. And, yet, they do NOT want to "come" to HIM. John 5:39; 40 And they wickedly ridicule anyone who does want to... and has. FUNNY thing, though, that they don't even BOTHER to look IN the very book they hold so "sacred"! They have their 10-12 verses... out of 10's of thousands... and totally disregard ALL others.
Although they SAY they SEE... they are BLIND guides. And because of this... they're not going in... and so always want to prevent those on their way in... to go in. THEY... try to "climb up some other place" and thus enter" through an inanimate object... and it's words. I have been granted "entry", however, and so go IN... and out... by THE Word, God's Son... the VERY Door, himself... whom these do NOT know. John 1:14; 10:7, 9
They don't know him... because they STILL need to "see" the Law written... on [stone] "tablets"... rather than "SEEING" the One who WRITES THE LAW ON OUR HEARTS.
So be it. Such ones cannot stop me, though, because it isn't THROUGH them... or those THEY follow... that I "enter." It isn't FROM them that I have received permission TO enter. And they don't get the SENSE of what I share... because THEY have not entered... because THEIR hearing (the VOICE of the Holy Spirit)... is DULL. They don't hear HIM... because they don't know HOW to hear him... because they have been told they CANNOT hear him... because he does not SPEAK... which is a LIE. And because of BELIEVING this LIE... they neither KNOW the One through whom ALL must enter, the Holy One of Israel, JAHESHUA MISCHAJAH... or His Father, the MOST Holy One of Israel, JAH of Armies.
Thus, they are among those of whom my Lord will say, "Get AWAY from me... I NEVER KNEW...YOU."
And yet, may the Holy One of Israel, my Lord and master, JAHESHUA MISCHAJAH... whose heart is MERCIFUL... grant them ears TO hear... as such granting has been granted HIM... by the MOST Holy One of Israel, the TRUE God, JAH... of Armies... IF they so wish it.
My peace remains.
A slave of Christ... and servant to the Household of God, Israel, and all those who go with,
