Blog of Desmond A. www.jesuscentral.com/13429   May 24, 2007 Why does Jesus keep telling the disciples that He is about to die? He wanted His deciples to understand that His Mission was about to be accomplised. He also wanted them to know that all the prophesy written and said about Him is soon to come to pass, as the bible says so that the scripture may be fulfilled. That the time has come for the redeemtion of man..He was trying to make them aware of what is about to be fall him and for them to be strong and strive to do the work of Him that has sent Him.

Favorite Violation May 19, 2007 Why did Jesus? penalty for sin need to include physical and emotional pain - why not just spiritual separation from God? The pain of Jesus is our redemption. Without His physical and emotional pain we would not have been justified..His emotional pain gave us victory over the devil. It gave us authority over the devil.. He said he is our advocate... The physical pain he had has banded the connection between us. He has brought us to a place where we no longer leave by our sensories perception but by faith, where sickness no longer prevails, where we can speak to our infirmities and they we go, where we can say no to the devils plans against our lives. The Bibles says: But God demonstrates His own love toward us in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us... He became poor so that we may become rich.....He suffered physical and emotional pain for us to have a happy glamorous life...

Favorite Violation April 24, 2007 What is the Kingdom of God? The kingdom of God embraces all created intelligence, both in heaven and earth that are willingly subject to the LORD and are in fellowship with him. The kingdom of God is therefore, universal - includes created angels and men, eternal - as God is eternal, and spiritual - found with in all born again believers. We enter the kingdom of God when we are born again and we are then part of that kingdom for eternity. It is a relationship born of the spirit ''John 3:5'' and we have confident assurance that it is so because the Spirit bears witness with our spirits ''Romans 8:16''.
