LESSONS FROM THE FIRE


HAVE YOU KNOWN A PERSON FOR SOME

TIME, AND SUDDENLY THEY DO OR SAY

SOMETHING THAT REALLY MAKES YOU QUESTION

THEIR FAITH OR BELIEF. YOU WONDER TO

YOURSELF, ARE THEY REALLY SAVED AND

BORNAGAIN??

NONE OF US IS PERFECT, BUT IN

THE PROCESS OF BEING PERFECTED.

THIS COULD BE LIKENED TO THE METAL

BEING BROUGHT TO THE FIRE SO THE DROSS

MAY COME TO THE SURFACE. THE DROSS IS

THE IMPURITIES BEING ROOTED OUT FROM

THE PURITY OF THE METAL.


Websters Dictionary:

DROSS noun; the scum that rises
to the surface of molten metal//
anything worthless.


WE CANNOT LOOK AT WHAT PEOPLE DO OR

WHAT THEY SAY. THE LORD LOOKS AT THEIR

HEARTS. EVEN IF I DO SOMETHING FOOLISH

OR WRONG, JESUS DOES NOT BANISH ME FROM

HIS PRESENCE OR HIS LOVE. HE CLEARS THE

DROSS AND PURIFIES ME UNTIL HE CAN SEE

HIS REFLECTION IN THE SMOULDERING HOT

METAL THAT HE HAS FORMED ME FROM.


"BUT HE KNOWETH THE WAY THAT I TAKE:

WHEN HE HATH TRIED ME, I SHALL COME

FORTH AS GOLD." Job 23v10

Amen Sweetie, Amen!
Man looks at the outward (how things look) but God looks at the heart and judges accordingly.


Lord, keep one hand on my shoulder and one hand over my mouth!

Beloved Brother,

It is the goodness of God,
that leads a man to repentance.

The judgements of God are just and true.


Ez. 33:11 "Say to them, 'As I live, says the LORD
God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked,
but rather that the wicked turn from his way and live.
Turn back, turn back from your evil ways, for why will you die,
O house oh Israel?'"


In fact, reading all of Ezekiel 33 would be
suggested. It is the orders of a "Watchman".
The watchman is called to speak what the LORD
says, but not to stand in judgement of the person.

With Great Love,

Beloved Edjehu,

I guess there were 3 Hebrew brothers
in the fiery furnace together.
Sometimes we are not all alone.

JESUS will always be with us no
matter what, though.

beloved sister,
judging of a person belongs to the LORD but we as the body are to judge the fruit. which is what i was saying FRUIT OF REPENTANCE.

1 corint 5 : 7 thru 13
i understand that it's a touchy topic but it's true we are our brothers keeper and judging the fruits of a person is what we are told by paul under the inspiration of the HOLY GHOST

Choose life,So that both you and your seed may live

Excellent post and I like Edjehu's reply as well. If we see our brother in the furnace, let us, the body of Christ, step in and lighten his load.

Blessings to you,

Dear Janice!

Among the things I especially liked in Daniel's book, was when he says to the King that Israel's God would undoubtably manage to save them from the furnace no matter what!

And he added:

But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
(Dan 3: 18 )

That's a strong testimony of what real faith is!

Amen!

Beloved BB,

AMEN And, the king saw one like the
Son of Man in the fire with them !!!
HalleluYah! Jesus was protecting them
even in the midst of that horrendous fire!

This is what all Christians must hold to
in the coming future, when the firestorms
come, we will not be consumed, and we will not bow
to any other gods or rule.

Thanks for your comments
