Mockery of the cross

<< < (4/4)

Firefly:
Thank you both for those scriptures and Ward I know that you are right. It is funny that I never felt persecuted for what I believe before. I think I can honestly say it has only been the last few months that I feel I have experienced it. I know that God has so much work left to do in me, I guess it is exciting and scary at the same time to see Him working!

I read these scripture the other day...

25These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father.

 26At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:

 27For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.

 28I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.

 29His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.

 30Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.

 31Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?

 32Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

 33These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
 

The scriptures are just like a whole new book for me...this is so exciting!

I also notice for example the what trials postings...not that I personally asked the questions regarding trials but after reading the post Roy posted I contemplated those things ...it used to be I would ask God a question...I can remember crying, begging Him to help me. I always felt like there was something missing...I can remember saying to Him at different times...God...what am I missing...there is some key I am missing what is it. Now I accepted Christ at 18 and I didn't get these revelations until 37...but now I ask a question and the answers come within a couple days or even less!
