Luke 4:18-19
King James Version
18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
because he hath anointed me
to preach the gospel to the poor;
he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted,
to preach deliverance to the captives,
and recovering of sight to the blind,
to set at liberty them that are bruised,
19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
The SPIRIT of GOD anointed the LORD JESUS, for a DIVINE purpose.
In service to the forgotten people of God:
1. to preach the gospel to the poor;
2. to heal the brokenhearted,
3. to preach deliverance to the captives, and
4. recovering of sight to the blind,
5. to set at liberty them that are bruised,
Also:
Luke 5:32
King James Version
32 I came not to call the righteous,
but sinners to repentance.
Matthew 15:24
King James Version
24 But he answered and said,
I am not sent but unto the lost sheep
of the house of Israel.
6. to call sinners to repentance.
7. unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
You can see the HEART of GOD in those verses.
How He loved all of us, sending His only begotten SON, so we may all be saved from sin.
How JESUS -- the sinless one -- took on ALL of our sins, by His blood, so we may all be saved.
But people continue to sin to this day, and remain ungrateful.
JESUS died on the cross, to destroy the devil.
Hebrews 2:14
King James Version
14 Forasmuch then as the children
are partakers of flesh and blood,
he also himself likewise took part of the same;
that through death he might destroy him
that had the power of death,
that is, the devil;
That is also the reason for all my blogs.
To reveal the TREASURES of the BIBLE.
We need to humble ourselves before GOD, and start BELIEVING in JESUS, who gave His all.
We have been greatly deceived by the devil, and only by the GRACE of GOD can we all be saved now.
Read the BIBLE, for it tells of GOD's TRUTH.
More than at any time -- for these are perilous times -- we need to know, ONLY THROUGH JESUS can we be SAVED.
Romans 3:23-24
King James Version
23 For all have sinned,
and come short of the glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace
through the redemption
that is in Christ Jesus:
Romans 5:9
King James Version
9 Much more then,
being now justified by his blood,
we shall be saved from wrath
through him.
