Jesus spoke in John chapter 10:
7 Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
8 All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them.
9 I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.
10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”
There is no other door or entrance to lawful entry into the Heavenlies except through Christ Jesus. There are those who would deemphasize the work of Christ thereby exalting their own ministry. Their goal is to have followers who would submit to their teachings and by default, affirm their path to them. In the end, their fruit would prove to be meaningless and/or worthless to the Kingdom of FATHER’S dear Son Jesus Christ. Those teachers may have started out with good intentions but their egos prevailed and subtly took them off course from The Way of Jesus Christ. We must not allow ourselves to seek those intellectuals who by logic and reason would have us believe anything else but the exact Truth of Jesus Christ. If a ministry is not “Christ-centered” then beware!
Jesus continued in chapter 10:
22 Now it was the Feast of Dedication in Jerusalem, and it was winter.
23 And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon’s porch.
24 Then the Jews surrounded Him and said to Him, “How long do You keep us in doubt? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly.”
25 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father’s name, they bear witness of Me.
26 But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you.
27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.
29 My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand.
30 I and My Father are one.”
Our words and works should bare witness of Jesus Christ and exalt no one else but Him! As we mature, we must not allow those who are immature to exalt us in any manner but we should point them to Our Heavenly Father and Our Lord Jesus Christ. Without FATHER’S anointing, I am nothing. Without FATHER’S confirmations by His Holy Spirit, I have nothing to offer anyone. I am simply a vessel for HIS use for I have and will continue to surrender my life to HIM. These daily writings only exist because FATHER has designated me to write them by responding to The Holy Spirit. Each day I submit and surrender myself to HIS leading. Each time that you read these, I trust that they minister life to you, correction when needed, and encouragement when you are being challenged. We must let The Holy Spirit flow through us to give life to those around us. Our unconditional Love for others should be ever present as we are being led by THE SPIRIT. We must not allow this flow of life to be restricted in any fashion because our ego is not being tweaked by the recipient. Jesus was not disheartened when He was rejected in His ministry. Neither should we.
There is only one Way, one door to The Way, and we must purposefully direct those who have ears to hear and eyes to see toward The Door to eternal life. May Jesus Christ be exalted in our words and actions at all times.
