Point 2. The Supreme Court of Heaven is Always Open and Available for Believers Only and for whatever reasons may exist.
We realize and understand that there is no such problem that is too small or too great for TLJC to hear about it and to do something about it.
LUK 12:7 “Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered so Do not fear; you are of more value than the many sparrows our Lord just pointed out.”
JOH 8:12 Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world; he who follows Me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life.”
He is not only “God” but one of His titles is “El Shaddai ” translated “Almighty God” by THE LORD JESUS CHRIST in Gen 17.
El Shaddai is also translated “God, the All-powerful One” or “The Mighty One of Jacob,” (Gen 49:24; Psa 132:2-5).
In GEN 49:22, speaking of the heroship of Joseph who became a winner believer in the Old Testament even though his family was a dysfunctional family.)
Then Jacob said “Joseph is a fruitful bough, A fruitful bough by a spring; Its branches run over a wall.
So again; “Be sure that you realize and understand that there is no such problem that is too small or too great for TLJC to hear about and to do something about it.”
We even have a selection that you can search for which talks about winner believers receiving rewards in this life for their faithfulness and dedication to TLJC as the SCJ in the SCOH.
1JO 5:4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world‑‑ our faith.
Num 35:8 “As for the cities which you shall give from the possession of the sons of Israel, you shall take more from the larger and you shall take less from the smaller;
Then the same verse goes on to say, ” Each one of you shall give some of his cities you defeated on the battlefield to the Levites in proportion to his possession which he inherits.”
“in proportion to his possessions which he inherits” is a reference to the capacity the winner believer has from growing up spiritually.
This also refers to the defeat of all of David’s enemies who David himself recognizes as an enemy but unlike King Saul, who did absolutely nothing except to run away or gone AWOL,
David not only misses being the leader over the Israeli military but he is becoming lazy and slothful and is no longer content with who he is and with what he possesses, the inheritance of God.
King David is bored and slothful and he also has lost the capacity he once had to be blessed by God with appreciation for what God blesses.
PRO 19:15 Laziness casts into a deep sleep, And an idle man will suffer hunger.
Speaking to Solomon on how to treat the ladies, Solomon’s mother, Bathsheba, teaches Solomon PRO 31:27 She looks well to the ways of her household, And does not eat the bread of idleness.
2SA 12:23 “But now he has died; why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he will not return to me.”
we have some passages that reveal how important it is for us to have the correct and proper mental attitude and to appreciate the fact that the Lord has even considered using you or me.
Just to be invited to the wedding is a tremendous honor and privilege that comes to all of us as a part of us being in union with OLJC .
Right now, the Church is being formed on earth and in Heaven.
The Church on earth is called the body.
The Church in Heaven is called the bride.
On earth, the Church is continuing to grow and is being prepared for the Marriage Feast or the Marriage Supper.
Attending the Marriage Feast will be not only the Church as the Bride of Christ, but others as well.
The “others” include the Old Testament saints—they will not have been resurrected yet, but their souls and spirits will be in heaven with us.
“Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb” (Rev 19:9). The marriage supper of the Lamb is a glorious celebration of all who are in Christ!
ZEC 4:10 “For who has despised the day of small things? “
This is why little things or small things can destroy our life if we ignore our biblical responsibility.
SOL 2:15 “Catch the foxes for us, The little foxes that are ruining the vineyards, While our vineyards are in blossom.”
The little small foxes spoil the vine and get us occupied with the problem rather than the solution; SOL 2:15; GAL 5:9.
Reference = putting on the new man and denying the old man, or putting on the New Creature or New Spiritual Species and rejecting the dominion that your old sin nature lusts after.
ROM 13:14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in regard to {its} lusts.
You are to make a decision to put something on, namely to put on the new nature that the Lord has given to you.
The scribes and the Pharisees would “put something on” that was deceitful to the observers.
MAT 6:16 “And whenever you fast, do not put on a gloomy face as the hypocrites {do,} for they neglect their appearance in order to be seen fasting by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full.
The apostle tells the new believers to “put on the armor of light” or “put on the Lord Jesus Christ.
EPH 4:24 “Put on the new self”
EPH 6:11 “Put on the full armor of God”
EPH 6:14 “put on the breastplate of righteousness”
COL 3:12 “put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience;”
COL 3:14 “put on virtue love,”
1Th 5:8 “put on the breastplate of faith and love”,
1Th 5:8, “put on your helmet, the confidence of salvation.
The carnal believer is helpless and lacks the humility needed to learn to rebound and recover and then use these principles to do so.
The carnal believer makes war with others including “war against God” rather than rebound and recover.
The question that needs to be answered and understood is how do children handle pressure and adversity?
Use your eye gate and your ear gate and you will come to the correct answer or conclusion to many of the problems we face.
JON 4:11 “And should I not have compassion on Nineveh, the great city in which there are more than 120,000 persons who do not know {the difference} between their right and left hand, as well as many animals?”
This talks about the individual who cannot and does not follow the Lord because they are mentally challenged.
The Lord tells us that all children will be automatically safe and also saved from eternal damnation.
Here comes the verse which talks about when an individual reaches the age of accountability which is really not an age but it is the mental capacity or ability that the individual has.
PSA 33:5 He loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the lovingkindness or graciousness of the Lord.
PSA 37:28 For the Lord loves justice, And does not forsake His godly or mature ones; They are preserved forever; But the descendants of the wicked will be cut off.
PSA 89:14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Thy throne; Lovingkindness and truth go before Thee.
PSA 97:2 Clouds and thick darkness surround Him; [however], Righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.
ISA 30:18 Therefore the Lord longs to be gracious to you [He is tapping His foot] waiting to , And therefore He waits on high to have compassion on you. For the Lord is a God of justice; How blessed are all those who long for Him.
Depending on the age, growth, and maturity of the child, adversity, stress, and circumstances can be all one and the same.
The parents should be the child’s FLOT line of the soul (the Forward Line of Troops).
PRO 1:8 Hear, my son, your father’s instruction, And do not forsake your mother’s teaching;
A godly doctrinal mother will teach her children, not drop them off at prep school known to some of you as Sunday school and say to the teacher – teach them.
The hand represents working and doing things as unto the Lord.
The frontal on the head represents the proper mental attitude and motivation.
Jos 24:15 “And if it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve; but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
One of the most important principles concerning the FLOT line is that you cannot be a FLOT line for the your children when you cannot be a FLOT line for yourself.
The main question that needs to be answered and understood is how did the Jewish children handle all the pressure and adversity?
The parents should be there to prevent the development of stress in the life of a child.
What happens to the children whose FLOT line protection is the parents but the parents are not there to be that protection for them?
This is why parents are told some very important principles as in COL 3:21 Fathers (parent or parents), do not exasperate your children, that they may not lose heart.
Also including in this form of abuse such as happens when the parents are fighting all the time or the parents do things in front of their kids that they should not do.
The child has no FLOT line but only stress from the parents who are suppose to be protecting him or her.
Stress in a child’s life is directly proportional to the stability of the parents or parent.
Your true life is based upon learning, believing, and applying the principles behind your spiritual life not advance in the cosmic system.
We do not need teenage programs but what we really need is what the apostle Paul taught us — we need parental application.
Many parents expect different results in their life when they do the same thing.
Albert Einstein said that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
What we really need are the changes in our doctrinal perception and application to get the differences that result from us being humble or being humiliated, whatever we choose.
Whenever we are ready and prepared we will also be thankful and grateful for all the other believers who stood with us against Satan and the kingdom of darkness.
Parents need to know how to use their tools, how to use their influence.
Because children begin life with blind faith and trust.
If the parents destroy their children’s trust, what does the child substitute and how difficult is it going to be for him to trust God and metabolize doctrine because of garbage he developed in childhood.
The norm and standard for us today is that parents have the most influence in a child’s life.
THE LORD JESUS CHRIST has especially created a place of torments for the child abuser that would frighten them to death if they saw it.
These results often determine where an individual will spend eternity and in what part of the eternal fire they will be tormented for day and night.
What did our Lord say about this principle of doctrine concerning the Eternal Lake of Fire and the eternal judgment rendered out from the SUPREME COURT OF HEAVEN?
MAT 10:15 “Truly I say to you, it will be more tolerable for {the} land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city.
MAT 11:22 “Nevertheless I say to you, it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in {the} day of judgment, than for you.
MAT 11:23 “And you, Capernaum, will not be exalted to heaven, will you? You shall descend to Hades; for if the miracles had occurred in Sodom which occurred in you, it would have remained to this day.
MAT 11:24 “Nevertheless I say to you that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in {the} day of judgment, than for you.”
Sodom = their secrets and cement
Gomorrah = Filled with rebellious people
Chorazin = that which is hidden in secret e secret; a mystery
Bethsaida = house of hunting and fishing
Tyre = novice — proud and arrogant
Sidon = ‘fishery’ or ‘fishing-town’
Capernaum = Rejects signs and wonders
The conversion rate was disappointing and THE LORD JESUS CHRIST pronounced a curse UPON His village; MAT 11:23.
MAT 11:23 “And you, Capernaum, will not be exalted to heaven, will you? You shall descend to Hades; for if the miracles had occurred in Sodom which occurred in you, it would have remained to this day.
It is important that the believer victim must not have any mental attitude sins toward those who abused them.
The greatest and highest function of your spiritual life is to win a complete victory over any traumatic experience of your life.
