People always look at the Physical Word of God.God is Spirit John4:24 so Is His Word, See ,
1Co 2:4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
1Co 2:13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. ..........................
************Scroll down for the topic about Liquor & alcohol***********
I let God's Word Speak in this Blog.(looking at (who is Israel) 1st
*********************
Mat 13:15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart,(KEY) and should be converted, and I should heal them.
now Look at : v.16 we are blessed as we see with our Spirit eyes amen??
Mat 13:16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
Mat 13:17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
Mar 8:18 Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?
I want to point out here,:
***********************************************************
1Co 2:4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
1Co 2:13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth,(here is Key) but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
The Old Testament,or Tanakh,was all physical,and a foreshadow of better things to come (spiritual)
****************************************************************
*****I the Old Test. the Temple was physical,(new test)became spiritual: *****
*******1Co 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? so, we are the Temple of God who abide in Christ,and are sealed by His Spirit.
This is a good spiritual lesson for everyone, just bear with me on the scriptures, as God is not a liar but man is a liar, so we hear God & not man ok?
I want to talk to you about Israel 1st...
********* First ,let me point out here,many are saying they have to be grafted back (into Israel)Wrong,Israel is not your Savior...
*****
*****Rom 11:23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.
*****Rom 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. (Gentiles are lost sinners in this world without Christ Eph.2:11-
*****Eph 2:12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
*****Eph 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
*****Gen 32:28 And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed. as Jacob leaned on God and not himself.(as we now lean on God & not self Through Christ Our Lord & savior.
*****Gen 49:10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be. Shiloh being the Messiah, or the Lord Jesus Christ(Emmanuel)God with us!!
************Jacob or Israel spoke blessings before his end (Old Test. saint) Isaac the same ch.27/Moses Deut.33/Joshua Josh.24/and Samuel 1Sam.12/In the (Last Days) introduces the whole prophecy and functions of an important way in the Old Test or Tanakh,the time of the coming Messiah.to the present church age in its entirety Heb.1:2 the conclusion
*****2Ti 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. . ..Look at the world today:truly perilous times everywhere.
*****Jas 5:3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.
******Their treasures mean more to them then God & His Word,and God will use against them in the last days...beware(No other gods)
I am leading you through the Spiritual Word of God, to help you see, before we move on about Israel!!
****Remembering always 1Cor.2:4,13 spirit to spirit!!****
we already looked at Gen.32:28 God named Jacob Israel..and Gen.49:10 Shiloh (messiah)**********
***Act 10:28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
So lets now look at :
*******Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. (why we must be born again John3:3 only way to the Father thru Christ John14:6) so you begin now to see with your spiritual eyes ,to comprehend Spiritual God amen?
*******Mat 21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
***** (Those who abide in Christ)walking in 100% obedience to God Through Christ and sealed by His Spirit )
****Luke17:21, the Kingdom of God is within us,all who abide in Christ & He in us,Col.1:27,God in us John14:23,HolySpirit in us eph.1:13,14 & 1cor.3:16,17 (we are the Temple of God & He dwells in us)
*******Act 13:45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming
*******Act 13:46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles. (Physical Jews rejected Jesus Christ,Messiah.
................let us look at (spiritual word of God)See with your Spirit eyes & hear with your spirit ears.................
*****Rom 2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
*****Rom 2:29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. (do you see where we are going? See in your spirit.
***The True Jew(spiritual) abides in Christ,have circumcised our hearts & or flesh of all sins,lusts & desires)
..............Now look at Gentiles: ..............
Eph 2:11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;
*****Eph 2:12 That**** at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: (this verse speals volums)
*****Eph 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.******* so we see here,they are Gentiles lost sinners in this world (Here is another Spiritual lesson )so lost sinners in this world without Christ are the Gentiles.(Huge Revelation here)
...........You cannot have God the Father without Christ ,as they are one,:
*****Joh 14:7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
*****Joh 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
*****Joh 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself:**** but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.***(They are One in the same Spirit)
*****Joh 14:11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake. (remember this part when we get down to where God never made the fruit of the vine(grape juice) off the cluster (Wine,alcohol,liquor)***Nor would He forbid alcohol,liquor,strong drink,fermented wine(liquor) and then break His own law.***
**********know this******************************************
(Father God said, I AM HE in Ex.3:13-15 & Deut.32:39 and Jesus said John8:24 if you do not believe that I AM He, you will die in your sins) 2Cor.5:19 the Father was in the Son, Jesus Christ,reconciling the World(sinners)unto Himself...and ****1Tim.3:16 God was manifest in the flesh(Jesus Christ)
******************************************************************
******* God provided a ram for Abraham & so He also provided a Lamb for you & me,(the Body of Christ,had all of our sins on it on the cross.
*****Rom 9:6 Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: *****
another revelation,you must see:
......remember ,God named Jacob , Israel, why? because of his belief & faith & trust in God,same as us today in Christ Jesus.
*************Look at this with your hearts********************
*****Rom 9:7 Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.
*****Rom 9:8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh,(flesh=sin) these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.(spiritual,in Christ) ***
*****The Contrast is between Abraham's physical descendants and his spiritual descendants. ***Not all of Abraham's physical descendants will be recipients of His Spiritual Blessing.
***(We are the recipients of God's Blessings)we abide in Christ(spiritual)
see,*****Flesh which is sin nature, has no spiritual claim on God ;
***Joh 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.(Jesus is truth John14:6)
***Rom 8:5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.(flesh being sin)
*****Gal 5:17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
Rom.6 we must die to the flesh*(sins,lusts & desires of the flesh)
*****Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
*****Gal 3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.....!!!
***Gal 3:14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.***@@ You Must See this...to receive!!
***Gal 3:26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. So, you see,why we must be born again a brand new Spirit in Christ Jesus,our Faith is in Christ,amen
*****our flesh body cannot be born again,it dies & goes back to the dust of this earth,or is changed instantly to spirit body at the death(1Cor.15:44)God gives us a new Spirit body,(if we are born again in Christ)and know this..v.50 Flesh & Blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God.(study the whole chapter.)
*****Gal 3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
*****Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
*****Gal 3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promiseYou have to see this & get it, to comprehend this Word of Revelation to you all.
.........I covered all scriptures to show to you,how physical is all old test. and a foreshadow of what was to come in the New Test.***(Spiritul) So,we who are born again in Christ abiding in Christ are Spiritual Israel...
*****John3:3 the Lord said, we must be born again(spirit has to be born again)1st birth is physical via water,and cannot be born again)2nd birth is Spiritual in Christ Our Savior.
I wanted to put the video in here,but am having a problem, you can look at these videos,listen.. http://www.remnantofgod.org/
and search the videos for who is Israel, and many others of interest & Did Jesus make Wine (alcohol) out of Juice? which we will cover now.(This Blog is for the readers,many do not like to watch videos,which ever you choose, please see with your spiritual eyes.
************ Liquor/Alcohol.not off the cluster******************
*******I will add 1st,I take the suppliment Resveratrol complex,it says from red wine extract (skin & pulp)point being,they call the skin & pulp red wine,or red grape ;there is no alcohol in suppliments.
.............First off God is so Holy & looking at scriptures..
*****Lev 10:9 Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: """it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations: """ Forever.
*****(look at churches that use alcohol to represent Holy God's Divine Shed Blood ,shed thru our sacrifice Christ Jesus (1cor.5:7)
*************************************************************
***do not say that was spoken to them at that time,God's Word(laws,statutes,judgments,ordinances,commandments stand forever & ever,and we are to live by every word from the mouth of God Matt.4:4.****and God is the same today as yesterday & forever. (He never changes(His Character & Holiness,righteousness)
*****Lev 10:10 And that ye may put difference between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean; (note(Holy)and (unholy)
*****Num 6:3 He shall separate himself from wine and strong drink, and shall drink ***no vinegar of wine***, or*** vinegar of strong drink, ***neither shall he drink any liquor of grapes,*** nor eat moist grapes, or dried. (so you see liquor of grapes(fermented,alcohol)...this scripture shows the word liquor of grapes.....(alcohol)
*** The Nazarites were to be holy & separated unto the Lord,as we today are as well..and New Test. we are the Royal Priesthood in Christ Jesus..(1Peter 2:5,9)to live holy unto Father God thru Christ,we are separated,not to serve sin,but serve God & His Righteousness.
*****Pro 20:1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is** deceived thereby is not wise**. (clearly God forbids drinking of alcohol, and other scriptures show how strong drink & wine (alcohol) has caused even prophets to stumble & err.
*****Mar 14:23 And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of it.(not liquor of grapes)
*****Mar 14:24 And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many. (the wine(juice)represents His shed Blood..............
*****Mark 14:25 Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God. (now fruit of the vine is grape juice off the cluster)***alcohol is after the grapes are fermented & rotten and giving off gasses..nothing our Lord would have any part of,for He is Holy .so Our Lord would not use alcohol or Fermented (rotten grapes) to represent His Holy Blood shed for us)
***Isa 65:8 Thus saith the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster,(not alcohol,no liquor of grapes comes off the cluster or vine)*** and one saith, (Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it):" ***so will I do for my servants' sakes***, that I may not destroy them all",God said ,so, as to continue on.....Symbolically ;
***(We are the New Wine,(BORN again in Christ Jesus;God's servants)).
***(Remembering God is the Root,Jesus is the Vine & we are the branches)we abide in Christ ,no sin abides in Christ (1John3:6-10)
*****(new Wine is found on the cluster,so how can the cluster be alcohol?Juice of the grapes is in the cluster new wine.(Represents God's servants,living Holy unto Him)
***The Prophet daniel would not drink fermented wine(liquor of grapes) offered him by the king:
***Dan 1:8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might*** not defile himself***. (Defile himself w. meat or wine.(Liquor or alcohol).SEE with your spiritual eyes here.
***same as Jesus used unleaven bread to represent His Body (as ***leaven represents sin)or flesh,meaning sinful nature.(Leaven also is false doctrines,lies,deception)***
***Psa 16:10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. (rotten grapes or fermented(alcohol,liquor of grapes)would God allow Him to see that Corruption? NO He would not.
*****Act 2:27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer** Thine Holy One to see corruption. **
*****Act 13:35 Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer Thine Holy One to see corruption.(certainly not rotted fermented grapes(liquor of grapes,or alcohol)
*******Mar 2:22 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles. (Juice) (the lesson here:
***Bottles were wineskins,the old ones representing Judaism*** and the New ones,Christianity.
***Old wineskins(sinners) lose their elasticity & would burst open by the fermentation of the new wine put in them(as will unrepentant sinners)die.
****(point)1,the old faith of Judaism and the new faith in Christ or Christianity,or born again in Christ, cannot be mixed,***nor can the practices of traditions of judaism be forced into Christianity.
****#2,the old man of sin(old wineskins,or in this case alcohol(rotten,fermented liquor of grapes,(sins) is crucified by Holy Spirit as we die to all sins and live Holy unto God
***(New wine,off the cluster,we are brand new in Christ)Cleansed by the shed Blood of Christ from all unrighteousness!!!(See with your spiritual eyes here)understand in your spirit.
****The human brain or sinful man cannot receive or comprehend the things of the Lord,that is the spiritual understanding. (1Cor.2:4,13)(pray that God lets you See)
****(No sin abides in Christ..1Jonn3:(v.6)thru v.10
***1Ti 5:24 Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after.(whether sins be conspicuous or inconspicuous,God knows,God sees all & knows the very thoughts & intents of the heart...nothing is ever hidden from God.
*****1Ti 5:25 Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.(All are made known in judgment)
*****Isa 28:7 But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
*****Isa 28:8 For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
God is Spirit :
*****Joh 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. God Himself became flesh(Jesus' Body)
*****1Ti 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: ****God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
*****************************************************************
*** God was in the Body of Christ: You Must SEE & Get this,to understand)
*****************************************************************
*******2Co 5:19 To wit, that "God was in Christ", reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
*** (Now ask yourselves..Did Holy & Righteous ,pure God make liquor or alcohol?)
*********God was in Christ,Holy,did Not make Liquor*******
*******************************************************************
********The Wedding Jesus turned water into wine off the cluster**************not alcohol/liquor
..........God never caused them at the wedding to be drunk.....
*******would this Holy Mighty & Just God who warns not to drink liquor of grapes or strong drink..make water into Liquor/alcohol? or fermented grapes(alcohol..and rotten grapes?) ***which would cause many at that wedding to err,???????
*** *******that God would cause many to become intoxicated***,
***************************************************************
****which would lead to sin & error,maybe even murder or to commit adultery or fornication, as we all know , alcohol is the cause of most all sins...****
**********See with your spiritual eys here*****************
*****(if they ran out of Wine,in which case,
**(say it was liquor of grapes),they were pretty much already drunk or near drunk...............)Right?
****Do You honestly believe Holy God literally made water into intoxicating liquor of grapes(alcohol?)
*******Would Holy God cause people to become drunk on liquor? and break His own Law????
*******I tell you, No ,He would not & did not.*********
*****(Read God's Holy Scriptures by His Holy Spirit,learn from Holy Spirit & not by man.)Learn ***How Holy God is.***
*******Hab 2:5 Yea also, because ***he transgresseth by wine,*** he is a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people:
********physical & Spiritual***************************
*******Clearly you must see, the physical tabernacle in the Old test.(a foreshadow to come) & the spiritual tabernacle in the new Test. 1Cor.3:16,also (physical Jerusalem is in bondage with her children(to the law) while New Jerusalem above(spiritual) is free..
*****Gal 4:25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
*****Gal 4:26 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
*******Thus,as God provided a ram for Abraham,(Old Test)foreshadow to come) so He has provided a Lamb for you & me, our Once & for all sacrifice Christ Jesus:(Spiritual)
*****1Co 5:7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: (which also became spiritual, see, ****nomore sacrifices.****
*********Our Once & For all Sacrifice,Christ's Body**********
*******1Pe 1:19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:read the rest of the chapter!!
***Rev 5:6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb(OUR JESUS CHRIST) as it had been slain(crucified), having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
***Rev 22:3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:
***Rev 22:4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. (His Holy Name,Not Religion)
********(No Sacrifice,Our Lord Jesus Christ)no forgiveness******
*******You have no forgiveness of sins but by the power of the shed blood of Christ..if you reject Christ your Lord & Savior, which is your Once & for all sacrifice(1Cor.5:7),the pure Lamb of God...you are dead unto God & in graves...(eph.2:1,read whole chapter)
***1Cor.6:9,10 abominations to God, you must repent away from unto God Thru Christ Jesus our Lord & savior.(Luke13:3)
*****Joh 5:28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,(sinners dead to God are in graves)
*****Joh 5:29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life;(Jonn 14:2,3) and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.(Rev.20:10-14)
*** See This ,either,the sinner who is dead unto God,are in graves to God,& when they hear the truth of the Gospel of Christ,they believe & are born again ,are resurrected from the (sin)(grave & Grave cloths=sins)dead and now are alive unto God.(Rom.6:11)
***See resurrection to death ,also Judgment,when God will resurrect all death & hell & judge it all into everlasting destruction,lake of fire Rev.20:10-14
****(These are the Rewards,either of everlasting Life John14:2,3 or eternal death Rev.20:10-14)
***See resurrection to life,John14:2,3,Those of us who are born again,abiding in christ,sealed with His Spirit eph.1:13,14 He receives our Born again Spirits .(when the earth body dies)
******Prayerfully ,soon,you will hear(that is to receive & to believe)Receiving Christ as Savior,and be risen up out of your graves..
***eph.2:1 sinners are dead unto God.***John3:3 which is to be born again , your spirit in Christ ,a brand new creature,back in relationship with God our Father..
***Why we must be born again,so God knows us thru Christ & we walk & talk with Holy Father God)Thru Christ & by His Spirit)
****Joh 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
If you visit the link I gave above, you can get much spiritual insight from those videos.or

*******Remember always, it is NEVER about man & Religion,or religious rituals; but only about God and our relationship with Him Thru Christ Jesus.W/Out Christ you have no relationship with Father God.Nor Forgiveness of your sins.***********
