Sincerity and Truth.

                                                                Sincerity & Truth.

 

Sincerity and Truth “Walk” Together.

 

Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the “Truth”, so that you have “Sincere” love for each other, love one another deeply, from the heart.  (1 Peter 1:22)

 

The Sincere Heart/Mind “Trust God”, the Insincere Heart/Mind “Trust Self”.

 

Our Daily Nugget

is Peter admonishing the people and us to “Be Holy”, like our Father is Holy.  There is no “holiness” without Sincerity and Truth.  A Sincere Heart/Mind “Will Tell You The Truth”.  To lie is evidence of Insincerity and a heart/mind that does not Trust God.  In the verses 1-21, Peter was telling the people that Jesus is our Living Hope and to Trust Him is to Obey Him.  Never Trust a liar.

 

Sincerity – “Eagerness” to do what is right, with “transparent” motives.

 

Sincerity and Truth Guides Us to “Live Holy”.

Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your “hope” on the “grace” to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at His coming.  As obedient children do not confirm to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance.  But just as He who called you is Holy, so be Holy in all you do, for it is written: “Be holy, because I am Holy”.  (1 Peter 1:13-16)

Sincerity, Truth and Obedience are Requirements to “Be Holy”.

 

The sincere person lives as if he lived, in a “glass house”, for they have nothing to hide, they are sincere and truthful which brings light, life and openness.  The insincere person lives, as if he lived, in “a house with no windows”, for they do not want anyone to see them, because they are insincere which brings guilt and shame. 

 

Insincerity brings a desire to “hide” from God and from one another, because we know we are guilty and wrong; like Adam and Eve tried to hide from God.  Today, insincere people hide behind deception and lies.  Hiding behind deception and lies will never lead to life, only to death.  Deception and lies are illusions of safety.

 

Show God, yourself, and the world, that you have placed your 

“Hope and Faith in Jesus” by “Being Sincere”. 

Now, Watch What Happens.

The "Wisdom" in "Denying Self"!

                                                   The “Wisdom” in “Denying Self”!   The world is waiting on us to Deny Self and Live Holy!   For the wage of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23)    Neither yield ye your members. Do not yield to temptation.  It is no sin to be tempted, the sin lies in yielding.   The Wage of sin is “Death While Living”; freedom is in Jesus. To yield or not to yield to sin is determined by our “Thinking Process”! Whenever we are tempted to sin; we can “Yield” or, we can “Yield Not”!   Just like our mouths speak what we have filled our heart/mind with; rather we yield to temptation or not is based also on what we have “filled” our heart/mind with.   Our Daily Nugget is telling us that the wage of sin is death, Jesus did not change that.  All who “believe” have chosen to “Yield Not to the Temptations” that the world offers.  This is a command from God to us.  The Bible says, “No Command From God to

Ambassadors!

                                                                       Ambassadors!   Everybody is an Ambassador of either God or Satan!   Anyone who isn’t with me opposes me, and anyone who isn’t “working with me” is actually working against me.  (Matthew 12:30) …And has committed to us the word of reconciliation.  Now then, we are Ambassadors for Christ….  (2 Corinthians 19 & 20)   Whose Ambassador Are You?  Look to your living! Ministering the Word of Reconciliation, The Ambassadors Job! We Kingdom Citizens, Christians, “Are” Ambassadors of I Am, God. Jesus said, If You Are Not Working “For Me” You’re Working Against Me!   Ambassador – An “accredited diplomat” “sent” by a Kingdom as its “Official Representative” to a foreign country, “To Deliver the Message of The King”!     The message of the King is given to the Ambassadors through The Word, The Bible, and through The Holy Spirit.   We must Study the Word, the Bible to “Know the Job Duties” for the Ambassador and “listen atten

Don't Let The Devil Ride!

                                                        Don’t Let the Devil Ride!   If you let him ride, he’ll want to drive, so don’t let him ride!   The serpent was the shrewdest of all the wild animals the Lord God had made.  One day he asked the woman, Did God really say you must not eat the fruit from any of the trees in the garden? (Genesis 3:1) At that time Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil.  He fasted for forty days and forty nights and afterward was hungry.  The tempter approached and said to him, “If you are the Son of God. Command that these stones become loaves of bread.  (Matthew 4:1-3)   Whenever the devil, the tempter, comes to us, we have two options: We can “let him ride”; we let him ride when we “respond” to him with our words. We tell him that “you cannot ride” when we “respond” to him, with God’s Words!   Our Daily Nuggets are two perfect examples in scripture of two people, one let the devil ride and one told the devil that he c
