2OUR MIND IS A POWERFUL ENTITY OF OUR BRAIN.
- HERE ARE THREE FACTS
- Our brains receive information. It passes that
information to our minds. That information is
then locked into our thoughts to be weighed. - If that information is truth.. or half truth.. or
not truth at all, that information is there. - If we accept information as truth, that
informa-tion is concreted into our minds as
true fact.
3WE SEE FACT 3 A LOT IN CHURCH FOLK
- We are taught in church that there are no other
gods.. just our one God. - This is a half truth. Gods Word teaches there
are other gods. - I personally believe, 97-99 of church folk have
subtly come to believe they can not understand
the bible without man to teach them what Gods
Word says. - This is why we have so many new versions of the
bible in plainer English.
4MAN REWRITES THE SPIRITUAL WORD OF GOD USING HIS
OWN WORDS SO THE NATURAL MIND CAN UNDERSTAND WHAT
HE THINKS GOD IS SAYING
- In so doing, many church folk have mans view of
what God says rather than what God says. - (John 663 It is the spirit that quicken-eth
the flesh profiteth nothing the words that I
speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are
life.)
5MOST CHURCH FOLK HAVE GONE TO NEW VERSIONS
BECAUSE THEY SOUND EASIER TO UNDERSTAND
- Few church folk study Gods Word today, which is
contrary to what God says by His Word.. - (2nd Tim 215 Study to shew thyself ap-proved
unto God, a workman that needeth not to be
ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.) - Most do not study Gods Word because they think
they must have a human teacher.
6WE HAVE COME TO BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE ONLY A FEW
TO TEACH THE MANY
- The few must be taught by teachers at bible
schools what God says in His Word, so they can
teach those that do not go to bible school, what
Gods Word says. - God says..(1stJn 227But the anointing which ye
have received of him abideth in you, and ye need
not that any man teach you but as the same
anointing teacheth you of all things, and is
truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught
you, ye shall abide in him.)...................
7I DO NOT THINK GOD MINDS THAT I MENTION HIM IN
THIS VERSE.
- (1st John 227 But the anointing BY THE
SPIRIT OF GOD THE HOLY GHOST which ye have
received of him OF THE HOLY GHOST abideth in
you, and ye need not that any man teach you but
as the same anointing BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD THE
HOLY GHOST teacheth you of all things, and is
truth, and is no lie, and even as it THE SPIRIT
OF GOD THE HOLY GHOST hath taught you, ye shall
abide in him IN CHRIST.) ..
8GODS WORD TELLS US THE HOLY GHOST IS OUR
TEACHER
- (1st Cor 213 Which things also we speak,
not in the words which mans wisdom teacheth, but
which the Holy Ghost teacheth comparing
spiritual things with spiritual.) - We have a big problems in the church today.
- We know more about what man says God says than
we do what Gods Word says God says..
9MANY CHURCH FOLK I TALK TO DO NOT UNDERSTAND
HOW GOD IS ONE GOD..
- ..YET GOD IS THREE PERSONS..
- (Gen 11 In the beginning God created the heaven
and the earth.) - The Hebrew word God.. 430 Õelohiym
el-o-heem God is a plural word with singular
and plural meaning.
10God 430 Õelohiym el-o-heem plural intensive
- singular meaning god, goddess, godlike one,
the (true) God, God plural rulers, judges,
divine ones, angels, gods
- This is why it is important that we understand
which person of the Godhead is speaking or which
person of the Godhead the word is speaking of. - God identifies Himself to us in His Word that we
can know Him individually.
11(Gen 12a And God said, Let us make man in our
image, after our likeness.)
- God tells us in His Word that God here is God The
Son and God the Holy Ghost. - The Word tells us that God the Father was not
physically present when God made man. - We know that Adam never saw God the Father.
- As a matter of fact, no man of flesh and blood
has ever seen God The Father at any time nor will
they ever.
12EVERY TIME MAN HAS SEEN GOD IT WAS GOD THE SON OR
GOD THE HOLY GHOST
- THIS INCLUDES THE OLD TESTAMENT...
- (John 118 No man hath seen God at any time the
only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the
Father, he hath declared him.) - (1stJohn 412a No man hath seen God at any
time..) - When God (the Son and Holy Ghost made man, Adam
could not look upon God (the Father).
13WE KNOW THAT EVERYTHING THAT IS MADE, WAS MADE BY
GOD THE SON
- (John 13 All things were made by him and
without him was not any thing made that was
made.) - God is God the Father, God the Son, and God the
Holy Ghost. - (1stJohn 57 (For there are three that bear
record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the
Holy Ghost and these three are one.)
14IF GOD IS 3 PERSONS, HOW CAN GOD BE ONE
- (1STJohn 58 And there are three that bear
witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and
the blood and these three agree in one.) - The 3 persons of God are one in that they are in
total agreement one with the other. - (Math 1225 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and
said unto them, Every kingdom divided against
itself is brought to desolation and every city
or house divided against itself shall not stand)
15IT IS THE SAME PRINCIPLEWITH MAN AND WIFE
- God created man and wife to be one flesh.
- (Gen 224 Therefore shall a man leave his
father and his mother, and shall cleave unto
his wife and they shall be one flesh.) - When a man and his wife are in agreement, they
are one.. when they disagree, they are divided..
they are not one.
16(John 1030 I and my Father are one.)
- Jesus is one with the Father in that they are in
total agreement. Jesus is not God the Father. - (Heb 81 Now of the things which we have
spoken this is the sum We have such an high
priest, who is set on the right hand of the
throne of the Majesty in the heavens) - This is not symbolic.. God the Son is sitting at
the right hand of the throne of God the Father.
17THERE IS ONE GOD...ARE THERE OTHER gods
- (James 219 Thou believest that there is
one God thou doest well the devils also
believe, and tremble.) - We know that God is one God in 3 persons
- WHY WOULD GOD COMMAND US IN.. (Ex 203
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.) .. IF
THERE WERE NO OTHER gods TO PUT BEFORE HIM
18 gods are not the same as an idols
- ..(Thou shalt have no other gods before me)..
- The Hebrew word gods here is the same word GOD in
Genesis 11 In the beginning God) - God.. 430 Õelohiym el-o-heem gods, God
- God/gods are not created beings. They are..
- God/gods have no beginning nor an end.
- There are other named gods in Gods word..
19WHO IS MELCHISEDEC
- (Hebrews 71a For this Melchisedec, king of
Salem, priest of the most high God..) (Heb 73a
Without father, without mother, without descent,
having neither beginning of days, nor end of
life. ) - Melchisedec is another named god and is a priest
in The Kingdom of God in heaven now - We are not to worship any other god but God..
20BECAUSE OF WHAT WE CHURCH FOLK HAVE BEEN TAUGHT,
WE DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT gods ARE
- THERE IS ONE GOD
- ...THIS ONE GOD IS THREE PERSONS
- GOD THE FATHER
- GOD THE SON
- GOD THE HOLY GHOST
- THESE THREE ARE ONE GOD IN THAT THEY ARE IN
TOTAL AGREEMENT
21THERE IS ONE GOD WHO IS THREE PERSONS
- NOW LETS LOOK AT THE LITTLE gods...
- THIS IS GOING TO GET DEEP ENOUGH TO DROWN MOST
CHURCH FOLK BUT IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND gods IT IS
NECESSARY TO SEE THIS.. - .There are two groups of little gods.
- Gods that have no beginning nor do they have an
end they just are
22..THERE ARE TWO GROUPS OF gods..
- 1st group .. are the gods that God created.
- These are the gods that at some time had a
beginning of life but they have no end.. - Man, the angels, and satan are in this
group. - 2nd group .. are the gods that have no beginning
nor do they have an ending. - These are the gods that Jesus, the Holy
Ghost, and Melchisedec were among when God the
Father chose them.
23MELCHISEDEC WAS A GOD ..WITH NO BEGINNING..
- This will blow most church folks minds, but this
is the group of fellows above which God the
Father chose Jesus to be His Son.. - (Hebrews 19 Thou hast loved righteousness, and
hated iniquity therefore God, even thy God, hath
anointed thee with the oil of glad-ness above thy
fellows.) - There was a time when God the Father
adopted Jesus to be the Son of God....
24LUCIFER / THE DEVIL IS A god CREATED BY GOD
- (Ezek 2815 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from
the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was
found in thee.) - EVEN THE gods, AT SOME TIME IN THE PAST AGES, HAD
TO CHOOSE TO FOLLOW THE ONE TRUE GOD OF
ETERNAL LIFE OR GO THEIR OWN WAY OF
ETERNAL - ...DEATH
25 WE HAVE THE gods THAT GOD HIMSELF CREATED.
- Lucifer / Satan is the god of this world
- (2nd Cor 44 In whom the god of this world hath
blinded the minds of them which believe not,
lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ,
who is the image of God, should shine unto them.) - Here is another shocker.. Jesus says you and I
are God created gods also.
26YOU AND I ARE gods IN THAT WE WERE CREATED IN THE
IMAGE AND LIKENESS OF GOD... GOD IS ETERNAL.. SO
ARE WE
- This body of flesh and blood will die.
- the soul of man will live on in eternity..
- It will spend eternity with Jesus.. or in a place
prepared for the devil and his angels. - Each of us have this little space in time we call
life in which we will make that eternal decision.
27WE ARE gods IN THAT WE ARE ETERNAL THE MOMENT WE
ARE CONCEIVED IN THE WOMB.
- (John 1034 Jesus answered them, Is it not
written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?) - (Isaiah 4123a Shew the things that are to come
hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods.) - (Psalms 826 I have said, Ye are gods and all
of you are children of the most High)
28(Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your
law, I said, Ye are gods?.......)
- Greek gods .. 2316 theos theh-os the
Godhead, trinity, a god or goddess - gods has the same meaning in the Greek that gods
does in the Hebrew.. and English - There are many gods. There is only one God and
Father of all there is only one God by whom we
can have access to God.
29THERE ARE MANY gods BUT WE ARE TO WORSHIP GOD
ONLY..
- (1STCor 85-6 5For though there be that are
called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as
there be gods many, and lords many,) 6But to us
there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all
things, and we in him and one Lord Jesus Christ,
by whom are all things, and we by him.)
30GOD COMMANDS THAT WE DO NOT WORSHIP OTHER
GODS..
- Idols are not gods. Idols are images that man
builds with his hands that gods can enter into so
man can have a physical image he can see to bow
to and worship. - An idol is the house for an invisible god.
- A god commands man to make him an image with his
hands because God will not allow a god to build
himself an image.
31THERE IS ONE GOD ALMIGHTY
- (Eph 46 One God and Father of all, who is
above all, and through all, and in you all.) - THERE IS ONE GOD AND GOD IS THREE
PERSONS
32(Ex 2012 Thou shalt have no other gods before
me.
- GOD GIVES US THIS COMMANDMENT BECAUSE THERE ARE
OTHER gods.. - THESE gods ARE REAL AND CAN ONLY BE SEEN IN
THE LIGHT OF THE TRUTH IN GODS
WORD.. - THE END
- THERE ARE OTHER gODS
