To: ALL WHO HAVE EARS TO HEAR
From: GOD
THE FATHER, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST HIS SON and Ministered through the HOLY
SPIRIT OF GOD, The Helper, that He may be with you forever. [John 14:16]
Subject: MY WORD; John 1:1 (NKJV) 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was
with God, and the Word was God. John 1:14 (NKJV) 14 And the Word
became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the
only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
Matthew 16:1–4 (The Living Bible) 1 One
day the Pharisees and Sadducees came to test Jesus’ claim of being the Messiah
by asking him to show them some great demonstrations in the skies. 2
He replied, “You are good at reading the weather signs of the skies—red sky
tonight means fair weather tomorrow; red sky in the morning means foul weather
all day—but you can’t read the obvious signs of the times! 4 This evil, unbelieving nation is asking for some strange
sign in the heavens, but no further proof will be given except the miracle that
happened to Jonah.” Then Jesus walked out on them.
Matthew 16:5–12 (NASB95) 5 And the disciples
came to the other side of the sea, but they had forgotten to bring any
bread. 6 And Jesus said to them, “Watch out and beware of the leaven
of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” 7 They began to discuss this
among themselves, saying, “He said that because we did not bring any
bread.” 8 But Jesus, aware of this, said, “You men of little faith,
why do you discuss among yourselves that you have no bread? 9 “Do
you not yet understand or remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and
how many baskets full you picked up? 10 “Or the seven loaves
of the four thousand, and how many large baskets full you picked up? 11
“How is it that you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning
bread? But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” 12 Then they understood that He did not say to
beware of the leaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and
Sadducees.
Matthew 16:13–17 (The Living Bible) 13 When
Jesus came to Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who are the people
saying I am?” 14 “Well,” they replied, “some say John the Baptist;
some, Elijah; some, Jeremiah or one of the other prophets.” 15 Then
he asked them, “Who do you think
I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered, “The Christ, the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” 17 “God
has blessed you, Simon, son of Jonah,” Jesus said, “for my Father in heaven has
personally revealed this to you—this is not from any human source.
Matthew 16:18–20 (Williams) 18 And I, yes I,
tell you, your name from now on is to be Peter, Rock, and on a massive rock
like this I will build my church, and the powers of the underworld shall never
overthrow it. 19 I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of
Heaven, and whatever your forbid on earth must be what is already forbidden in
heaven, and whatever you permit on earth must be what is already permitted in
heaven.” 20 Then he admonished the disciples not to tell anyone
that He was the Christ.
Matthew 16:21–28 (NASB95) 21 From that time
Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many
things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be
raised up on the third day. 22 Peter took Him aside and began to
rebuke Him, saying, “God forbid it, Lord! This shall never happen to
You.” 23 But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You
are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on God’s
interests, but man’s.” 24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must
deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me. 25 “For whoever
wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake
will find it. 26 “For what will it profit a man if he gains the
whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his
soul? 27 “For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory of His
Father with His angels, and will then
repay every man according to his deeds. 28 “Truly I say to
you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death
until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.”
[Please Note: Always Read the
Word of God in Context, reading the entire chapter or book, asking the Holy
Spirit of the Living God to give you the interpretation. 2 Peter 1:16–21 (Williams) 16 For it was not mere stories of fancy
that we followed when we told you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He
received such honor and glory from God the Father, when from the majestic glory
there was borne to Him a voice like this, “This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom
I take delight.” 18 we heard this voice ourselves borne from heaven
while we were with Him on that sacred mountain. 19 So we have the
message of the prophets more certainly guaranteed. Please pay attention to this message as to a
lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning
star rises in your hearts; 20 because you recognize this truth above
all else, that no prophecy in Scripture
is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, 21 for no prophecy has
ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by the Holy Spirit
spoke from God.]
