A Message for Kaden:

The Infinite God

(Part 1)

 

I met a precious younger man today, and I came across this message, which really touched on some of Kaden’s Questions.
(It’s a short video clip below).

So I post this message in case, per chance, Kaden might somehow see it: 

[I suppose if you are going to meet “a god:” it is important that you are introduced to the Right God. The one who created the heavens and the Earth “in the beginning.” The one responsible for life and death. The one judge of all the Earth, who invites us into his eternal kingdom, to walk with him freely — if we will only but respect His ways, His Will, His Word.]

The Truth be Told, Kaden: There are many gods out there to choose from. I met some of them in my days in the occult {although I now know them to be demons, and deceiving devils, propose themselves as gods who are wanting to be worshiped, and honored as gods, but have none of the character and righteousness of the one and only true God}.

Many claim to have creative powers (and they do–the Sorcerers of Pharaoh proved that, they imitated the first three signs of Moses Exodus 7:11-12, 22; Ex.8:7, 18-19). Many claim to provide or give superior intellectual wisdom and insight (and many do–demons have supernatural insights that come from a whole network of devils connected by an evil spirit, and they can predict the future in some limited ways, like the woman who prophesied and gained much money for her masters Acts 16:16-19), but ONLY ONE MAN came, and proved to be God’s only begotten Son, the promised One, who be “God in Flesh” “Emmanuel, God with us” (Matthew 1:23Isaiah 7:14; 8:8,10), by completely fulfilling 365+ specific: time, place, family origin, and 100’s supernatural quality prophecies. No other person in History comes even close:

  1. Only one has proven to be the Messiah of Israel.
  2. Only one was actually born of a virgin at the predicted time (Isaiah 7:14; Daniel 9:24-26).
  3. Only one was born in Bethlehem from the predicted family (Micah 5:2; Matthew 2:6).
  4. Only one led a sinless life as God predicted, and took our stripes upon his body (Isaiah 53). 
  5. Only one paid the penalty for my sin as God predicted.
  6. Only one died on the cross: while speaking forgiveness to his murderers as God predicted. (Ps 22; Isaiah 53)
  7. Only one was confirmed to: Bring into this World, the Highest Moral Teaching this world has every known. Only One has Raised Himself from the Dead, has given sight to the blind, given speech to the mute, given hearing to the deaf, given strength to the lame, given cleansing to the lepers, given forgiveness for sins, cast out devils from the demonized, given joy to the broken hearted, and peace to anxious, love to the loveless, and power to the weak, wisdom to the foolish, and raised the standard of life everywhere he went, and everywhere his true disciples took his teaching and his Word, and the Power of His Holy Spirit, transforming the selfish ignorant lives of deceived and wicked  sinners into noble saints, and selfless martyrs throughout history.

All the proof one needs: it is sitting there right in front of us. It is free. It is clean. It is pure. And it is available to all. The only thing blocking the truth, is the stubborn selfish, self-centered, deceitful, egotistical, prideful heart and mind of mankind, but God has a remedy for that, for the soul that chooses to seek him. (Matthew 7:7; Jeremiah 29:13)

 

Some questions are truly unanswerable: they are beyond our comprehension. I get that. Sometimes it’s like a pollywog, trying to explain a human being. In many ways, it can’t be done.

But, all those things that God has chosen to reveal to us, about himself are indeed knowable, by faith: if you have ears to hear, and a eye to see, and a mind ready to receive all that God has prepared for you.

 

KADEN: If you are going to meet and get to know God, make sure it is the right one, with the right mind, the right heart, the right will, the right way, and one who really cares about your Eternal Future with Him forever, and has done everything in His Power to prepare you for it, that is if you will only learn about it all from him.

 

Kaden — Here is my Challenge to You:

If you can find a more credible promise, a more spectacular offering, a more reliable person inviting you into a heavenly covenant that is: more powerful, more relatable, more personal, more intimate, more goodly, godly, and full of heavenly and earthly blessings, ever given in any other text: Please Let me Know!  (Be it religious, historic, spiritual, philosophical, psychological, self-help, sociological, etc.) I would say it would be your duty to tell me so:

Now it is my duty to share this Promise with You … 

 

John 14:8-21 (KJV)

8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you,

  • and yet hast thou not known me, Philip?

He that hath seen me, hath seen the Father;

  • and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
  • 10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me?

[Jesus is showing a proving He and the Father are One.]

The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself:

  • but the Father that dwelleth in me,
  • he doeth the works.

11 Believe me:

  • that I am in the Father,
  • and the Father in me:
  • or else believe me for the very works’ sake.

12 Verily, verily, I say unto you,

  1. He that believeth on me,
  2. the works that I do, shall he do also;
  3. and greater works than these shall he do;
  4. because I go unto my Father.

13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name,

  • that will I do,
  • that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

[That’s a condition: that the Father may be glorified in the Son. In this verse you have both God the Father, and God the Son, the first and second person’s of the Trinity.]

14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

[That’s also a condition: “In My Name” if it is not going to agree with Jesus’ character, Jesus’ will, or if it would break any of Jesus’ commandments, etc., that prayer cannot be said to be “in his name”.]

15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.

  • 16 And I will pray the Father [God, the father, the first person of the Trinity],
  • and he shall give you another Comforter,
  • that he may abide with you for ever;

17 Even the Spirit of truth [the Holy Spirit of God, the third person of the Trinity]; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

18 I will not leave you comfortless:

  • I will come to you.

19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more;

  • but ye see me:
  • because I live,
  • ye shall live also.

20 At that day ye shall know:

  • that I am in my Father,
  • and ye in me,
  • and I in you.

21 He that hath my commandments,

  • and keepeth them,
  • he it is that loveth me:
  • and he that loveth me
  • shall be loved of my Father,
  • and I will love him,
  • and [I] will manifest myself to him.
