BIBLE STUDY FOR 

SEPTEMBER 14th-21st-27th,-OCTOBER 5th, 2011

For this Bible Study let's begin by Meditating on how Father God has anchored us in His love by JESUS {THE WORD OF GOD-REVELATION 19:13}, and by the power of the Holy Spirit. 

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS GOD, THE THIRD PERSON OF THE TRINITY. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS A PERSON. HE COMFORTS, GRIEVES, REPROVES, GUIDES, TEACHES, CONVICTS, GIVES LIFE, FILLS AND EMPOWERS CHRISTIANS.

ROMANS 8:38,39 KJV *38/ FOR I AM PERSUADED, THAT NEITHER DEATH, NOR LIFE, NOR ANGELS, NOR PRINCIPALITIES, NOR POWERS, NOR THINGS PRESENT, NOR THINGS TO COME, 39/ NOR HEIGHT, NOR DEPTH, NOR ANY OTHER CREATURE, SHALL BE ABLE TO SEPARATE US FROM THE LOVE OF GOD, WHICH IS IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD.

IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY DONE SO, REVIEW WEEKLY BIBLE STUDY #18 "YOU ARE LOVED"

#22 "THE TRINITY".

ASK FATHER GOD FOR MORE UNDERSTANDING OF THE TRIUNE [THREE IN ONE] BEINGS WE ARE [SPIRIT/MIND/BODY], THAT HE HAS MADE IN HIS OWN IMAGE AND LIKENESS

GENESIS 1:26-27 * 26/And God {God the Father} said, Let us {God the Father, God the Son, & God the Holy Spirit} make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.  27/So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 

THERE IS A FATHERLY / MOTHERLY, {PARENTAL, NURTURING}SIDE OF US, AS WELL AS A SON / DAUGHTERLY, {CHILD LIKE, SUBMISSIVE, HUMBLE, AND TEACHABLE] SIDE OF US,

•  [Matthew 18:2-4* 2/And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, 3/And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.  4/Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.]
•  [Jesus said in Matthew 11:29 NIV "learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart"]

AND WE HAVE A SPIRIT [VITAL LIFE FORCE]; BUT WE'RE JUST ONE MAN OR WOMAN THAT OPERATES IN THREE WAYS, REGARDLESS TO WHETHER OR NOT A MAN HAS EVER PRO-CREATED OR A WOMAN HAS EVER GIVEN BIRTH, THE FATHER OR MOTHER PART OF THEIR BEING STILL EXISTS BECAUSE GOD MADE US IN HIS IMAGE. 

• GOD THE FATHER, GOD THE SON/WORD, & GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT IS JUST ONE GOD THAT OPERATES IN THREE PERSONS
• MANKIND-ONE MAN OR WOMAN, MADE IN GOD'S IMAGE, OPERATES IN THREE PERSONS AS: 

1. A SPIRIT{SPIRIT OF MAN/PROVERBS 20:27 NKJV*27-The spirit of a man is the lamp of the LORD, searching all the inner depths of his heart.                 HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD WITH ETERNAL LIFE IN CHRIST AFTER SALVATION,  [THE NEW MAN CREATED IN CHRIST JESUS]
2. SON OR DAUGHTER/MINDSET-DEVELOPING SOUL & 
3. FATHER OR MOTHER/MATURE BODY THAT HOUSES THE SON/MIND OR SOUL, & SPIRIT; {John 1:18 KJV * 18/ No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.  JOHN 1:18 NIV * 18/ No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known. COLOSSIANS 1:15 NKJV * 15/ He {JESUS} is the image of the invisible God,}

MANKIND IS STILL JUST ONE MAN OR WOMAN THAT IS A TRIUNE BEING; MADE IN THE IMAGE AND LIKENESS OF GOD. 

GENESIS 1:27 KJV  *27/So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.



PSALM 139:14 NKJV

14/ I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;

GENESIS 1:27 KJV 

27/ .................  in the image of God .......................

SEEK MORE KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING OF BEING ANCHORED IN FATHER GOD'S LOVE WITH A DIVINE INHERITANCE FROM BELONGING TO JESUS.

Galatians 3:29 NIV * If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

 Galatians 4:1-7 KJV * 1/Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all; 2/But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father. 3/Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: 4/But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 5/To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.  6/And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.  7/Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

JOHN 14:20-21

20/ At that day you will know that I {Jesus/Yahshua} am in My Father {Yahweh/Jehovah, see Weekly Bible Study #24 "Names of God", & #55 "Victory in Jesus",} and you in Me, and I in you. 21/ He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.”

THE TWO COMMANDMENTS OF JESUS

MATTHEW 22:37 thru 40 NKJV

37/ Jesus said to him, You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. 38/This is the first and great commandment. 39/ And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40/ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.

JESUS GIVES US ETERNAL LIFE

JOHN 10:27-30 KJV 

27/ My sheep hear my voice, and I know them and they follow me; 28/ And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29/ My Father,which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. 30/ I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE.    



WOW!!! HALLELUJAH!!!

I'M ANCHORED IN GOD'S LOVE!!!

JESUS' PRAYER FOR US

John 17:11-26 NKJV

11/ Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You.  Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are.  12/ While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name.  Those whom You gave Me I have kept; and none of them is lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled. 13/ But now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled in themselves. 14/ I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.  15/ I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one. 16/ They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.  17/ Sanctify them by Your truth.  Your word is truth.  18/ As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.  19/ And for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the truth.  20/ “I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word;  21/ that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.  22/ And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one:  23/ I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me. 24/ “Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.   25/ O righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me.  26/And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.
