ONE TRUTH

The Words of the SAVIOR of the WORLD

Luk 12:49 I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?

What did Jesus mean? When today most Christians promote, push, and preach the (Love of Jesus) they don't really know Him except from what they've been taught by deceived false preachers standing in the pulpits across the land. What did Jesus mean when He said "I am come to send fire on the earth" what was He saying in this? One only needs to review Revelation 20:9 for the explanation. Rev 20:9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. Jesus didn't only come as the "redeemer" He came also as the avenger to execute judgment upon the wicked when His time clock struck the time and hour for the eradication of the wicked.

Many separate Jesus from God! Jesus IS GOD! Yes, He came to show the world God's Love through God's GRACE, but He also came as the ONE who would through His sacrifice on the cross when it's rejected call for the vengeance of God by "fire." The phrase Jesus used of "what will I" eludes to His patience in waiting for His timeframe for this coming "fire" of the future and the destruction of the wicked. His phrase of "if it be already kindled" eludes backward in time from the time He spoke this all the way back to the fall in Eden when that fall called for the future "fire to come" that will burn in the Lake of Fire that will destroy the wicked of the Earth.

This is what Jesus meant when He said "I am come to send fire on the earth" which spoke of the reckoning of God's (HIS) wrath upon those who reject His GRACE of redemption and ultimate salvation through His willingness to give His own life in place of the wicked. That the wicked who learned of the redemption and God's MERCY through the Cross who accepted the provision made in Jesus Christ. If they accepted Him as God, they would not experience the "fire" of the Lake of Fire. This is what is meant by the words of the Savior of the World when He said: Mat 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. A sword is the instrument of battle and death, as well as the identifier of the spoken words of God. Which is why Jesus is depicted as having a "sword" coming out of his mouth in the Revelation. Rev 19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, (the two edges are the Old and New Testaments) that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

Yes, Jesus did come to reveal the "Love of God" but He came for much more. You see, God doesn't think like a man, nor can a man think like God. Many things Jesus said have more meaning than what the written sentence reveals when it's surface read by those who want only to see His love but overlook His "JUSTICE." Yes, JESUS is the God of love, but He is also the God of JUSTICE and His justice demands the ETERNAL DEATH and destruction "by FIRE" of those who reject Him. Now read the verse above again. Luk 12:49 I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled? Here Jesus was speaking within this definition of "How God" sees. Isa 46:9,10 Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure

Now without the cursive added words. Isa 46:9,10 Remember the former things of old: for I God, and none else; God, and none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times that are not done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure. Rom 4:17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.

This is what JESUS did in Luk 12:49 I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled? Jesus called the "fire" already determined by Himself at the FALL in Eden and even before that time, (as though it was already) all the way back to Gen 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. And yet even farther back that this (in God's mind.) How far back only God knows! Maybe as far back as the rebellion of Lucifer in heaven long before the world was. Because the final disposition of Lucifer turned Satan is also "destruction by "fire" as recorded here. Eze 28:18,19 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee. All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.

One cannot just read the written word as a book and understand the meaning of the statements made. Not even this statement (Joh 11:35 Jesus wept. ) means that Jesus humanity was showing, it was His divinity NOT His humanity. God would NOT shed tears over a human death such as Lazarus' death nor for those who believed in Him. He is the life-giver Jesus knew there was no barrier for Him in bringing Lazarus from the grave. He was not weeping because of Lazarus or those standing by because of Lazarus' death. Jesus was weeping for the living that day NOT for the dead man Lazarus. That's why He asked Martha, Lazarus' sister Joh 11:23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again. Martha's reply: Joh 11:24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.

Martha was a believer and she had her end-time theology correct, yet Jesus asked her this: Joh 11:26,27 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world. Didn't Jesus already know the spiritual condition of Martha? Of course, He did so why the question "Believest thou this?" He desired that Martha confess the truth as to who He IS with her own mouth. So she herself could hear herself confessing to God the TRUTH who is Jesus Himself.

Jesus wasn't weeping that day either for Martha, Mary, or Lazarus. Jesus wept because of the people's "unbelief" it was His divinity weeping for humanity's UNBELIEF at the tomb of Lazarus. He knew what He was going to do, and it was the most convincing before the people of His DIVINITY! The claim today of the modern-day "left and the right" is nothing new it has always existed among humanity. Joh 11:45 Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him. [The RIGHT-ous] 

Joh 11:46 But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done. [The LEFT-out]

You must allow God to reveal His truth to you, NOT some lovey-dovey preaching minister, pastor, preaching a false gospel.

The Watchman !!!
