1 Corinthians 12:12-14
King James Version
12 For as the body is one, and hath many members,
and all the members of that one body,
being many, are one body:
so also is Christ.
13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body,
whether we be Jews or Gentiles,
whether we be bond or free;
and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
The first video that greets me this morning is a heartening video showing president-elect Trump being greeted by other world leaders.
This, as the Notre Dame Cathedral was reopened, after a 15 April 2019 fire.
Interestingly, and symbolically, during that fire was about the time I became repentant of my sins, declaring to myself, "I didn't want to sin anymore."
FIVE months after, GOD made me born again.
FIVE years later, I'm still here writing, night and day.
Sharing Scripture with you every single day.
And now, GOD led me to write about world-changing American events.
With Trump ready to sit in office on 20 January 2025.
Finally, he is getting the respect he deserves.
Of course, the video warmed my heart.
With leaders showing momentary solidarity.
Somehow, you can feel the "love" and "dignity" at the gathering.
Seems like a rare event, and SPIRIT led me to it today.
And I wondered, why "Notre Dame Cathedral"?
What is its significance?
Why does it matter to a born again workman like me?
These we found:
"Notre-Dame de Paris (French: [nɔtʁ(ə) dam də paʁi] ⓘ; meaning "Our Lady of Paris"), often referred to simply as Notre-Dame,[a] is a medieval Catholic cathedral on the Île de la Cité (an island in the River Seine), in the 4th arrondissement of Paris, France."
"The cathedral, dedicated in honour of the Virgin Mary (Our Lady), is considered one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture."
"Until the French Revolution, Notre-Dame was the property of the archbishop of Paris and therefore the Catholic Church. It was nationalized on 2 November 1789 and since then has been the property of the French state."
-- Wikipedia
Oh my, we're at it again.
Praising what we shouldn't.
Pouring our money, and energy, in what GOD likes the least.
With world leaders yet, not really being aware.
But that's the nature of man.
But one day, we shall all "wake up".
It's all been prophesied.
I perceive Trump's return will be for good.
That's why we're watching him closely.
As a mother would, to a "child".
GOD appointed him, for a purpose.
We also learned the cathedral was in honor of Mary, the mother of JESUS.
I was once Catholic, and know the religion that honors Mary.
They made us revere her as "mediatrix".
That she will make supplications for us to her Son.
When GOD made me born again, He corrected all that:
Likewise, GOD is not into building "monuments" for praise.
Acts 7:48-49
King James Version
48 Howbeit the most High dwelleth
not in temples made with hands;
as saith the prophet,
49 Heaven is my throne,
and earth is my footstool:
what house will ye build me?
saith the Lord:
or what is the place of my rest?
Interestingly, when JESUS was on earth, He remarked:
Luke 9:58
King James Version
58 And Jesus said unto him,
Foxes have holes,
and birds of the air have nests;
but the Son of man hath not
where to lay his head.
"What is the place of my rest?" indeed.
The LORD JESUS had not been fully honored in this world.
But His time will come, when He first gathers His faithful.
BEFORE the Tribulation.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
King James Version
16 For the Lord himself
shall descend from heaven
with a shout,
with the voice of the archangel,
and with the trump of God:
and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain
shall be caught up together with them in the clouds,
to meet the Lord in the air:
and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
These are what I loved when GOD made me born again:
JESUS saved me from my sins.
He taught me how to love GOD.
He taught me GOD's commandments.
He taught me how to follow those commands.
He taught me to be a good "soldier".
SPIRIT made Scripture easy for me to understand.
He taught me about Bible prophecy.
He taught me how to connect world events with Scripture.
He taught me everything about JESUS.
He taught me how to LIVE by the BIBLE.
I cannot turn to world leaders for salvation.
I only turn to JESUS.
Who showed us how to worship GOD.
This is the TRUE temple:
1 Corinthians 3:16
King James Version
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God,
and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
This is the TRUE building:
1 Corinthians 3:9
King James Version
9 For we are labourers together with God:
ye are God's husbandry,
ye are God's building.
This is the TRUE church:
1 Corinthians 12:27
King James Version
27 Now ye are the body of Christ,
and members in particular.
This is the TRUE head of the CHURCH:
Ephesians 5:20-32
King James Version
23 For the husband is the head of the wife,
even as Christ is the head of the church:
and he is the saviour of the body.
This is the TRUE GOD:
Isaiah 9:6-7
King James Version
6 For unto us a child is born,
unto us a son is given:
and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called
Wonderful,
Counsellor,
The mighty God,
The everlasting Father,
The Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of his government and peace
there shall be no end,
upon the throne of David,
and upon his kingdom,
to order it,
and to establish it with judgment and with justice
from henceforth even for ever.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
My allegiance is to the ONE, TRUE KING -- JESUS.
For these very clear, and simple, reasons:
Psalm 118:8
King James Version
8 It is better to trust in the Lord
than to put confidence in man.
Psalm 146:3-5
King James Version
3 Put not your trust in princes,
nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.
4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth;
in that very day his thoughts perish.
5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help,
whose hope is in the Lord his God:
Proverbs 21:1
King James Version
21 The king's heart is in the hand of the Lord,
as the rivers of water:
he turneth it whithersoever he will.
And one day, everyone will bow before JESUS, uniting us all.
Philippians 2:9-11
King James Version
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him,
and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
of things in heaven,
and things in earth,
and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
Similarly, one day, there will be no more need for "temples".
Revelation 21:22
King James Version
22 And I saw no temple therein:
for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb
are the temple of it.
