But, above all, give us spiritual help. Give us wisdom, which is profitable to get. Give us the absence of all self-seeking, and a complete yielding up of our desires to the will of God. Help us to be as Christ was [is], who was not His own, but gave Himself to His Father for our sins; so may we, for His sake, give ourselves up to do or suffer the will of our Father who is in heaven.

Remember Thy people in their families and convert [save] their children; give us help and strength; spare precious lives that are in danger; be gracious to any that are dying; may the life of God swallow up the death of the body.

Prepare us all for Thy glorious advent [second coming]; keep us waiting and watching, and do Thou come quickly to our heart’s desire [longing] , for we pray

 

“Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven, for Thine is the kingdom, and the power and the glory, for ever and ever.”
 

[In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ] Amen.

Anecdote   231:       Good but Good for Nothing.

        I heard the other day of a Sunday-school address [lesson] in America which pleased me much. The teacher, speaking to the boys, said, “Boys, here’s a watch, what is it for?”  The children answered, “To tell the time.” “Well,” he said, “suppose my watch does not tell the time, what is it good for?  “Good for-nothing, sir.” Then he took out a pencil.  “What is this pencil for ?”   “It is to write with.”  Suppose this pencil won’t make a mark, what is it good for?”  “Good-for-nothing, sir”  Then he took out his pocketknife. “Boys, what is this for?” They were American boys, and so they shouted, “to whittle with,”  that is [that means] to experiment on any substance that came in their way by cutting a notch in it. “But,”  said he, “suppose it will not cut, what is the knife good for?”  “Good-for nothing, sir.” 
       Then the teacher asked, “What is the chief end of man?” [Man’s purpose] and they replied,  “To glorify God.”  “But suppose a man does not glorify God, what is he good for?”   “Good-for-nothing, sir.”  That brings out my point most clearly; there are many professors of whom I will not say that they are good-for-nothing, but methinks if they do not soon stir themselves up to glorify God by proclaiming the sweetness of God’s love it will go hard with them. Remember how Jesus said of the *savorless salt “ henceforth it is good for nothing.”

        What were you converted for? What were you forgiven for? What were you renewed for? What have you been preserved on earth for but to tell to others the glad tidings of salvation and so to glorify God?  Do, then, go out with your hands full of the honey of divine love and hold it out to others.

FAITH’S CHECKBOOK MARCH 19 BECOMING FIT FOR GLORY by C.H. Spurgeon

 

-The Lord will give grace and glory- Psalm 84:11

-Gracia y gloria dará Jehova- Salmos 84:11

 

Grace is what we need just now, and it is to be had freely. What can be freer than a gift? Today we shall receive sustaining, strengthening, sanctifying, satisfying grace. He has given daily grace until now, and as for the future, that grace is still sufficient.

 

If we have but little grace the fault must lie in ourselves; for the Lord is not straitened, [limited] neither is He slow to bestow it in abundance. We may ask for as much as we will and never fear a refusal. He giveth [gives] liberally and up-braideth not [doesn’t find fault, criticize or utter a reproach] .

The Lord may not give gold, but He will give grace: He may not give gain, but He will give grace. He will certainly send us trial, but He will give grace in proportion thereto.

 

We may be called to labor, and to suffer, but with the call there will come all the grace required. What an “AND” is that in the text   — and glory! We do not need glory yet, and we are not yet fit for it; but we shall have it in due order [time].

 

After we have eaten the bread of grace, we shall drink the wine of glory. We must go through the holy -which is grace, to the holiest of all [holy of holies] — which is glory.

 

These words -and glory- are enough to make a man dance for joy.

A little while — a little while, and then glory forever!

 

Prayer: Thank you, Lord, that You give grace and glory to Your redeemed, in Jesus Christ name, Amen.

MORNING March 19

 

"Strong in faith. "—Romans 4:20

Esforzado en fe —Romanos 4:20

 

CHRISTIAN, take good care of your faith; for recollect [remember]

 

faith is the only way whereby you can obtain blessings.

 

If we want blessings from God, nothing can fetch [bring] them down but faith. Prayer cannot draw down answers from God's throne except it be the earnest prayer of the man who believes.

 

Faith is the angelic messenger between the soul and the Lord Jesus in glory. Let that angel be withdrawn, we can neither send up prayer, nor receive the answers.

Faith is the telegraphic wire [instrumentality] that links earth and heaven—on which God's messages of love fly so fast, that before we call He answers, and while we are yet speaking He hears us.

But if that telegraphic wire of faith be snapped [cut off], how can we receive the promise?

 

Am I in trouble? I can obtain help for trouble by faith.

Am I beaten about by the enemy? My soul leans on her dear Refuge [safe place] by faith.
But take faith away—in vain I call to God.

 

There is no road betwixt [between] my soul and heaven. In the deepest wintertime faith is a road on which the horses of prayer may travel and all the better for the biting frost; but blockade [block] the road, and how can we communicate with the Great King?

Faith links me with divinity.

Faith clothes me with the power of God.

Faith engages the omnipotence [infinite power] of Jehovah on my side.

Faith ensures every attribute of God in my defense.

It helps me to defy the hosts of hell.

It makes me march triumphant over the necks of my enemies.

But without faith how can I receive anything of the Lord? Let not him that wavers, who is like a wave of the Sea, expect that he will receive anything of God!

 

0, then, Christian, watch well your faith; for with it you can win all things, however poor you are, but without it you can obtain nothing.

 

"If you can believe, all things are possible to him that believes."

EVENING March 19

 

"And she did eat, and was sufficed [satisfied], and left. " —Ruth 2:14

—Y ella comió hasta que se hartó y le sobró. —Rut 2:14

 

WHENEVER we are privileged to eat of the bread which Jesus gives, we are, like Ruth, satisfied with the full  [meal] and sweet repast [dessert].

 

When Jesus is the host, no guest goes empty [leaves hungry] from the table.

 

Our head is satisfied with the precious truth which Christ reveals.

Our heart is content with Jesus, as the altogether lovely object of affection.

Our hope is satisfied, for whom have we in heaven but Jesus [himself]?

Our desire is satiated [satisfied], for

 

what can we wish for more than "to know Christ and to be found in Him"?

Jesus fills our conscience until it is at perfect peace, our judgment with persuasion of the certainty of His teachings, our memory with recollections of what He has done, and our imagination with the prospects of what He is yet to do.

 

As Ruth was "sufficed, and left," so is it with us. We have had deep draughts [“big gulps”]; we have thought that we could take in all of Christ, but when we have done our best, we have had to leave a vast remainder [after we have been satisfird].

 

We have sat at the table of the Lord's love, and said,

"Nothing but the infinite can ever satisfy me; I am such a great sinner that I must have infinite merit wash my sin away."

 

But we have had our sin removed, and found that there was merit to spare; we have had our hunger relieved at the feast of sacred love, and found that there was a abundance of spiritual meat remaining [on the platter]. There are certain sweet things in the Word of God which we have not enjoyed yet, and which we are obliged to leave for a while; for we are like the disciples to whom Jesus said,

"I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now."

 

Yes, there are graces to which we have not attained; places of fellowship nearer to Christ we have not reached; and heights of communion our feet have not climbed [approached].

 

At every banquet of love there are many baskets of fragments left. Let us magnify the liberality of our glorious Boaz 

[Jesus, our near kinsman, our next of kin].

Mission and Invitation
 

The aim of this work is to save souls, strengthen and encourage believers in the Word, proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ as we serve those in need. We believe the Bible is God’s revealed Word and that through His Word He guides us as individuals and as a local body of believers. We are resolved, God helping us, to study, meditate and pray to rightly divide God’s revealed Word holding it as the final authority in all things. 
 

The purpose of The John Mark Publishing Company is to make known the Gospel of The Lord Jesus Christ to every creature. We aim to love the brethren, win souls, and  build-up of the Body of Christ, [The Universal Church of true believers].  We purpose to publish the Good News of Jesus Christ and to proclaim (preach) HIM everywhere.  We purpose also to serve everyone, especially those in the household of faith.. 
       We believe the Bible is God’s everlasting, inspired (God breathed) Word.  By His Word He guides us individually and corporately through His local Church.
       God’s Word [The Bible] is the driving essence of all our work. To this end we annotate and reprint, unabridged, the sermons and publications from The Holy Bible that were preached and taught through the inspired servant Charles Haddad Spurgeon.

       Paul’s gratitude, contentment and blessing recorded in the book of Philippians quotes the principle and practices regarding all contributions to the Publishing Company. We desire fruit that may abound to your account through your generosity:  (vis.)
"For even in  [the]  Thessaloni'ca [jail] ye sent once and again unto my necessity.  Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.  Philippians 4:17. But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received the things which were sent from you, an odor of a sweet smell, Exodus. 29.18 a sacrifice acceptable, well-pleasing to God. …But I know that my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:17-19.  Now unto God and our Father  be  glory  for ever and ever. Amen. Salute [Greet]  every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren which are with me greet you All the saints salute [Greet]  you, chiefly they that are of  *Caesar’s household. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Philippians 4:23 Amen” 

* Not only were new converts won to the truth in Caesar's household, but after their conversion they remained in that household. They did not feel at liberty to abandon their post of duty because their surroundings were no longer congenial. [They were now out of their comfort zone but obliged to steadfastly remain and serve there] The truth had found them there, and there they remained, by their changed life and character testifying to the transforming power of their new found faith in Jesus Christ.  Thank you for your prayers.

A Sinner’s Prayer: 
A person may come to Jesus by  believing in Him and (sincerely) praying like this:

 

“Lord Jesus, I’m a sinner. I’m lost and hopeless without You.  I will never be able to save myself by my own merits. Without you and your death on the cross I would deserve and spend forever in Hell.

I know that me doing my best or being good (in my own opinion)  and justifying my own behavior as "good"  or "OK" will never  save me.
I look to You, alone  Lord Jesus to save me. 
I come to You   right now.  Lord Jesus.   Please save me.  I believe You died on the cross in my place to pay for my sin debt and put to death my sin nature. I know  You always keep your word.  Please save me. You say and  it’s written in the Bible that you won’t reject anyone who comes to You. I'm coming  to You now. Thank You for saving me.

I  give myself (all of myself) to You, Lord Jesus. I declare that You are my Savior and Lord. I’m sorry for and I turn away from  every sin (every bad thought, every bad word I have spoken and every bad thing I have ever done)  and look to You free me from the penalty of sin, to keep me free from the power of sin and empower me overcome any temptation from sin’s  presence.  Thank you for forgiving  all of  my sins by dying on the cross to pay the punishment that I deserve.  (I was a sinner by nature and by behavior). But now I'm washed clean by Your blood that was shed [poured out] for me at Calvary [at the cross].

Thank you Lord Jesus that You loved me and died for me before I was born and that You love me now and will always love me and will never reject or turn your back on me. I know You are the Way, the Truth and the Life and that no one can come to the Father other than by You.

Thank you Father that You have made a way for me to see myself as ungodly.  But,  because You are good You have made a way and given me the desire to come to You, to turn away from my sin and to trust in the Lord Jesus.  You have forgiven me because He took my place and You have provided for  me to be born again [born from above, born of the Holy Spirit].  
You prompted this desire and faith to believe in Your only begotten Son who,gave up  His life and died on the cross to pay my sin debt, not mine alone, but the sins of the whole world. 

Thank You, Heavenly Father that you raised Jesus from the dead. He is ALIVE and in Him we are victorious over sin, death and the grave and in Christ Jesus there is no condemnation. After You raised Him from the dead You gave Him a Glorified, [everlasting] physical body and  after he was seen by many witnesses on earth You took Him up to reign with  You  in heaven.

 

I pray this in the name, of Your only begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ with a grateful heart.   Thank You for saving me heavenly Father and for sending the Comforter, The Spirit of Truth, for my guidance and solemn instruction into all truth.,  Amen.”

Thank You Holy Spirit of Truth, The Comforter, The Paraclete [true friend who is by your side and always has your back]  for the new life in Jesus and the  victory that comes when I recon myself dead indeed unto sin and alive unto God through Christ Jesus our Lord trusting You, Holy Spirit for Your  empowerment  to see  this promise fulfilled. Romans 6:11

Thank you that you, Holy Spirit,  always exalt [lift up] the Lord Jesus.  John 16:8-11

 

With all my heart, I thank you Lord Jesus for saving me. 
I ask now that You live Your life through me in Your name, Lord Jesus  I pray, Amen.

Please allow us to celebrate with you and with the angels in heaven at the news of your new birth.   Please write to:

SPECIAL SPURGEON SERMON: “Why Men Cannot Believe in Christ”

[Christ Jesus]

 

URL:  https://youtu.be/hHF1r74XaTQ?si=czhwYSJP9H53XqCy

 

Note: This Sermon was referenced in the Men’s Bible Study on Wednesday, August 14th 2024 at South Shores Church and is featured here as an unabridged Audio recording of Sermon # 1245 that was preached originally by Charles Spurgeon in 1875 from his home church, The Metropolitan Tabernacle, London, U.K.

Can You trust this website?

Is it of God?

Is it trustworthy?

1 John  Chapter 4

Beloved ones, don’t be believing every spirit [everything you hear] but [continually] be testing the spirit whether it is of God: because many false prophets have come out in the world. Here’s how you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit [voice] that confesseth [confesses, says] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh, having come out of God, is of God: and every spirit [voice] that confesseth not [doesn't confess] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

Hence, I confess [declare and affirm] "Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh."

___________________________________________________________________

He has always existed from eternity past [FOREVER] as the WORD of God.    John 1:1-2

And He was born of a virgin 2,024 years ago in Bethlehem, the WORD made flesh,

is alive today, and is coming soon for His *bride, the Church

[*All redeemed believers].

"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:

God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,

believed on in the world, received up into glory."

1 Timothy 3:16

 

Let me invite you to trust in  the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord and to publicly confess [declare] Him as such before men [publicly]. He will therefore be able to acknowledge and confess you before His Father in Heaven. He is The God of Abraham. Isaac and Jacob. Following your public confession, You also invited to follow Him in believer’s baptism by immersion.

 

Jesus came from Galilee t o Jordan to be baptized by John the Baptist. But, John forbad [refused] Him and said, “I have need to be baptized of You and [yet] you are coming to me?” [for baptism] And Jesus answering him said, “Suffer it to be so [Allow this]: for thus it becometh [is fitting and right for] us to fulfil all righteousness.”

 Matthew 3:15

 

Baptism is not required for salvation. Remember, what Jesus said to the thief on the cross, who acknowledged Jesus’ innocence and said to him:

 

“Remember me when you come into your kingdom.”

 

And then, Jesus said to him:

 

“Verily [Truly] I say to you, Today you shall be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:43

Baptism pictures the Lord’s death, burial  and resurrection and the believer’s new birth.

 

It bears witness with John the Baptist who preached that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand and exhorted Repentance from sin and the Baptism of atonement. Therefore, the act of baptism is not required for salvation but it is an act of obedience to fulfil all righteousness.

Matthew 3:15

Romans 6:3-5:

3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?

4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.

“Study to show yourself approved unto God, a worker that needs not be ashamed, rightly dividing [accurately proclaiming] the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

 

Following the Lord Jesus Christ in His purpose for us is our aim. We trust Him for our salvation, guidance, strength and our eternal destiny. We desire to and will, with His help, follow Him in soul winning by use or any instrumentality He may choose. We invite and encourage non-believers to turn away from sin, look to Him and be saved.

We trust that all believers (old and new) will benefit in knowing that He will sustain, guide and build us up.  We are being conformed to the image of Christ Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit.

…Jon always said “Later”; [see-ya-later] instead of “good bye”. It was his standard greeting to bid farewell … He would never  say “good-bye”. Now, as we remember the sound of him saying “Later”, it rings very true as to its new and deeper meaning and it brings a joyfulness and comfort to the hearts of those he loved so well; those who love him still and will forever more.

… we are  reminded of the promise of the Hymn:

’Till We Meet Again. Amen.

Jesus Christ [Messiah- Anointed King]  has always existed, from eternity past [FOREVER] as the WORD of God.    John 1:1-2

And He was born of a virgin 2,024 years ago in Bethlehem, the WORD made flesh,

is alive today, and is coming soon for His *bride, the Church

[*All redeemed believers].

"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:

God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,

believed on in the world, received up into glory."

1 Timothy 3:16

 

You’re invited to receive the Lord Jesus Christ [The Messiah] as your Savior and Lord and to publicly confess your trust in Him so He  will then be able to acknowledge you before His Father, The God of Abraham. Isaac and Jacob. Jesus answered him and  said, “Suffer it to be so [to let this happen]: for thus it becometh [is in accord with] us to fulfil all righteousness.”

 Matthew 3:15

 

Baptism is not required for salvation. Remember, Jesus said to the thief on the cross, who acknowledged Jesus’ innocence and said to him.

 

“Remember me when you come into your kingdom.”

 

And Jesus said to him,

 

“Verily [Truly] I say to you, Today you shall be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:43

The act of Baptism pictures the Lord’s death, burial  and resurrection and the believer’s death to self, burial, and resurrection to walk in newness of life.

It bears witness to the preaching of John the Baptist who preached that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand and exhorted Repentance from sin and the Baptism of atonement. Therefore, the act of baptism is not required for salvation but as John preached it is is to be followed to fulfil all righteousness

This website is not intended, were it possible, to take the place of the personal and physical gathering of believers fellowship or congregational worship in  local bodies of believers.

“Study to show yourself approved unto God, a worker that needs not be ashamed, rightly dividing [accurately comprehending and sharing] the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

 

Following the Lord Jesus Christ in His purpose for us is our desire. We trust Him for our salvation, guidance, strength and our eternal destiny. We desire to and will, with His help, follow Him in soul winning by use of DailySpurgeon or any instrumentality He may bestow. We invite and encourage non-believers to turn away from sin, look to Him and be saved.

We trust that believers (old and new) will benefit in knowing that He will sustain, guide and build us up as we are being conformed to the image of Christ Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit.

This website ministry grew from a beginning of sending e-mails from  Charles Spurgeon’s  Faith’s Checkbook a book of daily promises from Scripture  to John Michael’s son, Jon Edward Riley (1971- 2021). When Jon shared them with others, they asked to be added to this mailing list. This mailing list grew to over 400 and  continues to be used in the  distribution of  the website content  Our prayer is that it will continue to encourage followers of Jesus Christ in vigorous  personal devotions of  Love, obedience and oneness with Jesus Christ through the study of and obedience to GOD’S WORD empowered by the Holy Ghost.

 

Devotional contents  by Charles Spurgeon are brought together daily at dailyspurgeon.com

These devotional contents were written and calendared by Charles Spurgeon over 200 years ago yet  continue to have a significant relevance today.

 

We pray that many lost souls will be born-again and then be built-up in the Faith of Jesus Christ. May God sustain, guide and protect this ministry begun with John Michael’s  beloved son, Jon Edward Riley (1971-2021)  honored here as one to whom honor is due.

 

Jon Edward loved to say,

“I’m a blood-bought, born-again child of God.”

Is   dailyspurgeon.com   trustworthy?

Is it true?     Is it of God?

We should apply the following Scripture to everything we hear/read to discern whether what we are  hearing or reading is of God and therefore whether or not it should be believed.
 

1 John 4:1-3  Beloved ones, don’t be believing every spirit [word] you hear but be testing the spirits [words] whether they are of God: because many false prophets have gone out into the world. Here’s how you know if it is the Spirit [voice]  of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh, having come from God, is of God:  and every spirit that confesses not that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

Therefore beloved, we must test every voice [written or spoken]  to discern whether it is from God or not. By applying these scripture verses we can determine with certainty if the scriptural standard that protects believers from believing false prophets has been met.   We can thereby identify false witnesses and determine not to believe or follow them.  The voice [spirit] being tested should not be believed unless it confesses [states]  that…

“Jesus Christ is here, in the flesh having come from God .”

 

Two Greek manuscripts that were cobbled together by Westcott & Hort and Nestle & Aland do not make this confession nor do they follow the Textus Receptus  rendered from 5,321 extant Greek manuscripts,  which  agree overwhelmingly with each other  known as as the Majority Text. The 5,321  Majority Text is the source from which the trusted Textus Receptus was rendered.

 

Instead, these two purveyors of Greek texts used their own Greek  translations that they invented by hand picking only 55 of the 5,321extant Greek manuscripts. When these 55 Manuscripts did not contain the text being translated, they inserted their own invented and unfounded Greek text.

 

Their invented Greek translation  presented variant  readings different than the Textus Receptus [Received Text] in many places. One example  from 1 John, Chapter 4 where  all English translations other than the King James version overlook the original Greek verb “ictin” [To be] [is] (third person singular) that is translated in substantially all Majority Texts MT and  subsequently in the Textus Receptus [Received Text] and therefore have failed to correctly translate  the Greek verb  as, “Is come” [Is here].  (correctly Translated from the Textus Receptus [Received Text (TR)]  in the King James Version)

This  error occurs  because the  modern critical Greek text, created by Westcott & Hort and Nestles & Alland DO NOT follow the  MT [Majority Texts] of 5,321 Greek manuscripts that  affirm substantial agreement with one another.   The TR  [Textus Receptus] is rendered from an overwhelming agreement found among the Majority Text of 5,321 primary Greek manuscript sources.

Both Westcott & Hort and Nestles & Alland ignore the verb “is”, from their invented  Greek text and place “has come” instead.

This error may be legally described as res ipsa loquitur a latin phrase that means “the thing speaks for itself”.

Therefore, the Greek  inventions generated by these two sources are not actually translations, even though they are introduced as translations, but actually  represent their own  Greek language inventions unsupported by the reliability of the Majority Texts and the Textus Receptus.

How do we know?

We know because both  non-believers and false prophets assert that Jesus Christ 
“has come” in the flesh. Practically anyone  can make this confession as the  birth of Jesus Christ is considered by historians to be the most well documented fact in all of human history.

 

That He has come is generally acknowledged by nonbelievers and believers alike.   However, here’s the point. There is a huge difference in meaning between “Has come” and “Is Here”. “Has come” is woefully short of the essential and clear meaning of the confession “Is Here”.

 

Just because something “has come” it can not be assumed, inferred or deduced that it also “is here”.

The “has come” assertion is generally held.  It is not, per se, a false statement. Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. However, this  falls short of  presenting a logical rubric to discern whether the sprit [voice] being tested [tried] is from God or from false prophets in the spirit of antichrist.

 

Again, the expression “has come” rather than  “is come” [is here]  is not, per se a false statement.

However, it fails to deliver a valid hypothesis, by which spiritual understanding can be discerned. The failure here  to establish a logical and rhetorically sound rubric to judge  the question of whether spirits [words] are from God or from false prophets and the spirit of antichrist is absent if “has come” is  the favored reading.

 

Actually, “has come” is such a wide-spread belief held to be historically true by all, yet, it does not provide a sound standard to discern whether a spirit [spoken or written words]  are from God or the spirit of Antichrist.

 

Almost anyone [or any spirit] can declare that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh. But as you see, this does not resolve the issue of whether something should or should not be believed as true or followed. Why?  Once again,  because almost anyone can and often does confess that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh. But, his is an insufficient standard. The standard must be whether the confession that Jesus is here  alone, gives an efficacious standard to discern truth from error.

Again, while it is  true that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh, this alone is inadequate to discern truth from error. “Has come” does not mean the same thing as “is come [is here],  from God, in the flesh” and therefore fails to be efficacious for true spiritual discernment.

 

Further, as we  compare  Scripture with  scripture in 1 John 4:1-3 and  Ephesians 5:30-32

we comprehend God’s message regarding  the body of Jesus Christ  being in the Flesh vis-à-vis The Body of Christ, The Corporate Church.

Compare Scripture with Scripture:  1 John 4:1-3   with Ephesians 5:30-32

1 John 4:1-3  Authorized (King James) Version

4 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

Ephesians 5:30-32 
Authorized (King James) Version

30 for we are members of his [Jesus Christ’s]  body,  of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning  Christ and the church.

[So, we are flesh and bone members of His body, We are] one flesh with Him,  The Body of Christ is (In the flesh); and is the incarnate Body of believers.

 

He was born of a virgin 2025 years ago and He’s alive today.

He’s coming again  soon,  for His bride; the Church [Blood-bought, Born-again members of His body].

 

When a believer considers the fact that they are members of the body of Christ [The Church] , they will see and acknowledge that…

 

“Jesus Christ is here, from God,  in the flesh,” because  We are the Body of Christ; The Church, in the flesh! 

Amen.

THE BEST BIBLE TRANSLATION:
 

Why KING JAMES is Best  by Steven Houck

Even though [it is said that the] King James Version has its weaknesses, it is an excellent translation and by far the best version available today. We must not be taken in by the modern versions and their claims. Our 400 years old Bible is to be preferred above all others because it is better than them all.

1) It was translated by men who are unsurpassed in their knowledge of Biblical studies.

2) The translators were pious men of God who believed in the inspiration of the Holy Scriptures.

3) It is the mature fruit of generations of English translations as well as the careful work of its translators.
4) The King James Version is based upon the Received Text rather than the critical Greek text of modern versions. [vis. Sinaiticus and Vaticanus.]
5) It is a word-for-word translation which faithfully and accurately reflects the originals [of the Majority Texts, MT].

6) The language is one of reverence and respect which gives honor [and greater glory] to the majesty of its Author.

7) Of all the English versions of today, it alone is the Bible of the Reformation.

8) Our spiritual forefathers thought so highly of it that they were willing to suffer and even die for it.

9) It is the version which has been recognized for generations and generations as the Bible God has given to His English-speaking Church.

 

[A 10th reason why it is best is added here by DailySpurgeon.com]

 

10) The KJV is the work of 54 translators selected and organized into seven companies. (2), from Westminster (2), from Cambridge, (2), from Oxford and (1)  from London. The work was done openly allowing each company to receive inquiries or comments during the course of the work.  When an issue of disagreement arose, it was addressed in Prayer and discussion was continued until the difference was resolved unanimously and without objection.

 

What Bible is The Best?  by David Hocking Reviews the HISTORY and Original Source of the Bible

 

David’s Summary  (8 minutes) The problem is not English, but what  Greek text was used to render the English translation.

 

Commitment to the Word of God

Long before the Conservative Resurgence, Dr. R.G. Lee was the Southern Baptist champion of biblical infallibility and inerrancy. In his sermon, “The Word of God – Not Broken and Not Bound,” first published in 1930, Dr. Lee proclaimed, “All who wrote are immortalized by their writing of this great Book [The Holy Bible],

 

… “supernatural in origin, divine in authorship, human in penmanship, infallible in authority, infinite in scope, universal in interest, personal in application, regenerative in power, inspired [God breathed] in totality.”

 

Dr Robert G. Lee preached a sermon (click here)  Payday Someday   over 1,000 times and was the Senior Pastor of one of the first Megachurches, Bellevue Baptist Church, Memphis, Tennessee,
