En direction dans la mauvaise direction?

En direction dans la mauvaise direction?

Luc 23:11 "Hérode, avec ses hommes de guerre, le méprisa, et se moqua de lui, et le revêtit d'une robe magnifique, et le renvoya à Pilate."

Toutes les souffrances de Christ ne se sont pas terminées quand Il a terminé Son ministère terrestre.
Il prend toujours la persécution de son peuple personnellement comme cela est révélé par Sa déclaration à Saul sur le chemin de Damas: "Saul, Saul, pourquoi me persécutes-tu?"

 Il n'a pas demandé à Paul pourquoi il persécutait son peuple. Il a dit: "Pourquoi me persécutes-tu?"
Quand nous sommes persécutés à cause de la justice, c'est en fait Christ qui est persécuté.

L'un des aspects les plus éprouvants de la persécution est le sentiment que Dieu vous a abandonné.

 "Si Dieu le voulait, Il pourrait arrêter la persécution, non?

Par conséquent, il s'en fout. »C'est ainsi que le diable essaie de nous faire réfléchir.

Cependant, le Seigneur est avec vous dans la persécution. Si vous vous en souvenez, cela vous empêchera de vous décourager quand viendra la persécution.

Le vrai christianisme est exactement le contraire du système mondial tout entier. Nous nous dirigeons dans une direction désintéressée, alors que le monde est consumé par soi-même. Jésus nous enseigne à aimer, alors que le monde est plein de haine. Nous sommes censés tourner l'autre joue, tandis que le monde prend des occasions de nous blesser. Le monde et le christianisme sont en conflit. La seule raison pour laquelle un chrétien ne souffrirait pas de persécution est s'il se dirige dans la même direction qu'un incroyant. Quand nous allons à la manière de Dieu, nous allons tomber sur le diable.

Christ souffre encore la persécution aujourd'hui quand son peuple est persécuté.
Il continuera à le faire jusqu'à l'établissement de son royaume physique.

Heading in the wrong direction?

Heading in the wrong direction?

Luke 23:11 "And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate."

All of Christ's sufferings did not end when He finished His earthly ministry.
He still takes the persecution of His people personally as is revealed by His statement to Saul on the road to Damascus: "Saul, Saul, why do you persecut me?"
 He didn't ask Paul why he was persecuting His people. He said, "Why are you persecuting Me?"
When we are persecuted for righteousness' sake, it is actually Christ who is being persecuted.

One of the most trying aspects of persecution is the feeling that God has forsaken you.
 "If God wanted to, He could stop the persecution, right?

Therefore, He doesn't care." That's the way the devil tries to make us think.

However, the Lord is with you in persecution. If you remember this, it will keep you from being discouraged when persecution comes.

True Christianity is exactly the opposite of the whole-world system. We are heading in a selfless direction, while the world is consumed with self. Jesus teaches us to love, while the world is full of hate. We are suppose to turn the other cheek, while the world takes opportunities to hurt us. The world and Christianity are in conflict. The only reason a Christian would not suffer persecution is if he is heading in the same direction as an unbeliever. When we go God's way, we will bump into the devil.

Christ is still suffering persecution today when His people are persecuted.
He will continue to do so until the establishment of His physical kingdom.

Juste une partie de la vie?
** Nous devons tous apprendre à vivre cette vie telle qu'elle est - pas seulement comme nous le voulons!La façon dont nous répondons est la clé pour que notre vie soit vécue avec succès!

Les choses se passent en fonction de nombreux événements différents dans le présent ... Notre choix est d'apprendre, puis d'observer, puis de venir gérer ces événements pour faire une meilleure vie.Beaucoup de problèmes (dont nous avons tous des formes de problèmes) qui sont placés sur notre chemin de la vie sont bénéfiques ou préjudiciables - et comment nous vivons à travers eux aidera finalement à déterminer où nous allons passer l'éternité!
Alors, comment avez-vous un aperçu de l'importance?
Peut-être est-il préférable de revenir à quelque chose de simple pour illustrer cela.
La vie de base passe et coule à travers de nombreux canaux et divers moments et événements ...
Une grande partie de ce que nous apprenons et expérimentons provient de notre environnement immédiat et de l'association avec les différents éléments placés sur notre chemin de vie!


 Une grande partie de ce que nous avons à notre disposition sur cette terre n'est pas juste autour de nous comme avec des idées, des pensées, des images, des sons et des relations personnelles étroites avec d'autres ... Cela nous amène à reconnaître comment, quand et où ces événements affectent nos vies - aidez-nous à faire les meilleurs choix ...
La vie est en réalité une relation qui est entrelacée avec des expériences réelles et une intervention divine à certains moments.
Préparez-vous à rechercher le visage de Dieu dans votre vie, puis apprenez à accepter son inspiration de la révélation divine ...

Just part of life?

** We must all learn to live this life as it happens - not just as we want it to be!
Rather how we respond is the key to wither our life is successfully lived!


Things happen based upon many different events in the present... Our choice is to learn, then observe, then come to manage these events to make a better Life.
Many of the problems {of which we all have some form of problems} that are placed upon our pathway of life are either beneficial or detrimental - and how we live through them will ultimately help determine where we will spend Eternity!

So now do you get a glimpse of the importance?

Perhaps it is best if we go back to something simple to help illustrate this.

Basic Life ebbs and flows through many channels and various times and events...

Much of what we learn and experience comes from our immediate environment and the association with the different elements placed upon our pathway of life!

 
Much of what we have available to us in this earth is not only just around us as with ideas, thoughts, pictures, sounds, and close personal relationships - with others... It takes us our coming to recognize how, when, and where these events effect our lives - help us make the best choices...

Life is actually a relationship that is intertwined with actual experiences and divine intervention at times..

Be prepared to seek the Face of God in your life then learn to hopefully accept His prompting of divine revelation... 

He Knows far more than we ever will...

What Happened at the Resurrection?

John 20:1-8.      What Happened at the Resurrection?

The story of the resurrection in John is quite exciting and seemingly straightforward. One woman shows up at the tomb, discovers it is open, informs the disciples, who investigate, and then meets first an angel and afterward Jesus. This straightforwardness is true enough so long as we look only at one Gospel.

When we examine Matthew 28:1-8 or Mark 16:1-8 or Luke 24:1-10 we discover differing pictures. Can these pictures be put together? If they cannot, what does this mean for the truth of the accounts?

In responding to this issue, it would be helpful to look at the events in the four accounts

 (see chart).

When we examine these four accounts, we notice some similarities.

 First, all agree that the events happened around dawn, although they disagree about whether it was already light. Given that the events happened over a period of time, this difference is hardly significant. 

Second, all agree that Mary Magdalene was at least one of the ones discovering that the body had disappeared. The purposes of the individual narratives seems to determine how many other women are mentioned (with Luke, who has a special interest in women, noting the most women). 

Third, all agree that the women find an open, corpse-less tomb. Matthew seems to imply that they also saw the opening of the tomb, although he may narrate the opening of the tomb as something that happened while the women were traveling and before they arrived at the tomb. None of the other Gospels mentions the guards, so how the tomb gets opened is less of a problem for them.

 Fourth, all agree that the women saw one or more angels (only Luke has two). However, the angel in John's account appears to be functioning in a different narrative role than the ones in the other accounts. It is, perhaps, more accurate to say that John does not inform us if Mary saw anyone at the tomb before going to tell the disciples. What the angels say also differs, although in all cases the women are informed that Jesus is not there. In the various accounts they are told not to fear (and that they were afraid anyway), to report to the disciples and to meet Jesus in Galilee.

 Finally, all agree that the women left the tomb, and three of the four accounts note that they did inform the disciples. (Mark breaks off with John 20:8, the longer ending probably not being part of the original text; it is debated whether an original ending of Mark has been lost or whether he intended to break off with the women in fear and the question of whether they would follow Jesus into Galilee hanging in the air.)

Furthermore, two of the accounts agree that the woman or women met Jesus, that they tried to hold on to him, and that he sent them on their way. However, John appears to put this meeting after Peter and the beloved disciple investigate, and Matthew puts it before the women report to the disciples.

Event	Matt. 28:1-8	Mark 16:1-8	Luke 24:1-10	John 20:1-8
When?	at dawn	just after sunrise	very early in the morning	while it was still dark
Who comes first?	Mary Magdalene and the other Mary	Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome	Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the others	Mary Magdalene
What do they find?	earthquake with angel who rolls back the stone	stone rolled away	stone rolled away	stone removed from the entrance
Whom do they see?	angel sitting on the stone	young man in white robe, sitting on the right	two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning	no one
What do they do?	ran to tell his disciples	fled from the tomb, afraid to say anything	told what had happened to the Eleven and others	ran to tell Peter and the disciple, the one Jesus loved
What happens next?	Jesus met them		Peter goes to the tomb to investigate	Peter and the other disciple investigate
What is the third scene?	Guards report to chief priests and are bribed		story of two disciples on the Emmaus road	Mary sees two angels in white, seated where Jesus' body had been

What can we conclude from this data?

 First, it is possible to make this data into a coherent story. If we assume that the pre- or postdawn timing depends on whether one gives the time of the women starting their trip or their arrival at the tomb, if we assume that the earthquake and angelic descent happened before the women arrived at the tomb, if we merge what the angels say into one account, if we assume that the angels moved around, and if we assume that Mary Magdalene remained behind at the tomb while the others went and reported (and thus had a separate meeting with Jesus), one can make a single coherent account out of the various stories. Obviously, if there were two angels, one writer could report only one. Not every writer has to report all of the details another mentions. In other words, these are different stories but not necessarily conflicting stories. All could be true at the same time.

Second, while it is possible to make the data fit into a coherent story, we cannot be sure that we have the right coherent story. We have a jigsaw puzzle of information and cannot be sure that we have all of the pieces. Thus, since the Scripture has not given us a single unified story, we must be careful or else we will end up believing that our reconstruction is the truth. A reconstruction may be the truth or it may distort the truth. Perhaps if we had some other critical pieces of information we would make quite a different reconstruction.

Third, these stories are exactly what one would expect to discover after a significant event like the resurrection. The chancellor of this author's university died at the end of an address to the student body. Within an hour of the event a sociology professor had his thirty students each write down their own account of what had happened. Each was instructed to write as honest and detailed account as they could, given the limited time of the class period. When the accounts were later compared, there were numerous differences in detail, although all agreed that the chancellor had died at the end of his address. Presumably each Gospel writer had a series of stories about the resurrection to sort through. For example, we know that Matthew knows and values Mark's account, but in the resurrection story he obviously has some independent information as well. The Evangelists selected and combined data to get the accounts that they give us. But even the beloved disciple in John is not an eyewitness of most of the events, so we are not surprised to find a lot of differences in their reporting what happened.

Finally, when we try to put the stories together, we miss the point of the authors. The church accepted into its canon four separate Gospels, viewing each as inspired by God. It did not put into the canon a harmony of these Gospels (although such existed). The fact is that each writer is trying to bring out his unique perspective and theological insights by the details he includes or leaves out (although, unless Matthew and Luke are differing from Mark, which we know that they knew, we often cannot be sure that the author actually knows a detail and so purposely leaves it out). Matthew wants to underline the miraculous and also explain a rumor that the body of Jesus was stolen. Luke stresses the fulfillment of the words of Jesus and yet the disbelief of the apostles. John, by focusing on a single character and her intimate discussion with Jesus, points out that in the resurrection and ascension of Jesus the promises of John 13-16 are fulfilled. Jesus cannot be held, for it is better for him to go to the one who is not only his Father but is now also our Father. It is when we look at the resurrection through such eyes, informed by the perspective of each Gospel writer, that we see not simply a miracle, nor even the fact of the resurrection, but the message the church has believed that God wanted to communicate in and through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Grieve the Holy Spirit??

Grieve the Holy Spirit??

*** Now that He (Christ) ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth (hell)?

He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that He might fulfill all things.***

So how does someone grieve the Holy Spirit?

** How does this affect you and your Eternity?

Read and Pray for divine discernment of the Holy Scriptures!

Ephesians 4:1-32 (KJV)

1 I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that you walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,

2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

3 Endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.

9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?

10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fulfill all things.)

11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ:

14 That we henceforth are no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

15 But speaking the truth in love may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supply, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, makes increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

17 This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,

18 Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:

19 Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

20 But ye have not so learned Christ;

21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:

22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;

23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbor: for we are members one of another.

26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

27 Neither gives place to the devil.

28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needs.

29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good for the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

30 And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

*** Following Notes from AWMI.org

Note 25 at Ephesians 4:30:

The Holy Spirit is a person who can be grieved.

(see note 7 at 1 Corinthians 6:11)

* Note 7 at 1 Corinthians 6:11:

The usual term used to describe the Spirit of God in the New Testament is the “Holy Spirit.” It is the clear and undeniable teaching of Scripture that the Holy Spirit is a divine personage. We are told that the Holy Spirit has intelligence and knowledge (1 Corinthians 2:10-13 and 12:8); speaks and guides (Acts 13:2, 16:6, 21:11; Romans 8:14; Revelation 2:7, 11, 17, and 29); commands and appoints people (Acts 8:29; 13:2, 4; and 20:28); has feelings (Ephesians 4:30); and can be lied to (Acts 5:3), resisted (Acts 7:51), and blasphemed (Matthew 12:31).

Divine attributes such as omniscience (John 14:26, 16:12-13; and 1 Corinthians 2:10-11), omnipotence (Psalms 62:11 with Acts 5:3-4; Luke 1:35; Romans 1:4, and 8:11), omnipresence (Psalms 139:7-10), holiness (Luke 11:13 and Romans 1:4), eternalness (Hebrews 9:14), truth (1 John 5:6), wisdom (Isaiah 40:13), and life (Romans 8:2) are all ascribed to Him.

The name of the Holy Spirit is coupled in equality with the Father and the Son (Matthew 28:19 and 2 Corinthians 13:14), and it is identified with the Jehovah of the Old Testament scripture (Isaiah 6:8-10 with Acts 28:25-27, and Jeremiah 31:31-34 with Hebrews 10:15-17).

Symbols of the Holy Spirit used in Scripture are the dove (Matthew 3:16, Mark 1:10, Luke 3:22, and John 1:32), fire (Acts 2:3), water (John 7:38-39), wind (John 3:8 and Acts 2:1-2), and oil (Luke 4:18, Acts 10:38, 2 Corinthians 1:21, and 1 John 2:27). These are material emblems that help represent and portray the Spirit.

In the life of the believer, the Holy Spirit regenerates (John 3:3-5 and Titus 3:5), indwells (1 Corinthians 6:19), seals (Ephesians 1:13-14 and 4:30), fills (Acts 2:4 and Ephesians 5:18), anoints (1 John 2:20 and 27), guides (Romans 8:14; Galatians 5:16, and 25), teaches (1 John 2:27), comforts (John 14:26), and empowers (Acts 4:31, Romans 8:2, and Galatians 5:16).

There is no such thing as victorious Christian living without a moment-by-moment, hour-by-hour, day-by-day dependence upon the Spirit of God (Romans 7:24-25 and 8:2). Not only is the Christian life hard to live, it is impossible to live without the power of God Himself (John 15:5).

(see note 4 at Acts 5:4)

* Note 4 at Acts 5:4: This is one of the clearest scriptural references about the Holy Ghost being God. In Acts 5:3, Peter said that Ananias had lied unto the Holy Ghost; then in this verse, he said Ananias had not lied unto men but unto God, thereby using the names God and Holy Ghost interchangeably

(see note 2 at Mark 1:10)

* Note 2 at Mark 1:10: All three persons of the Godhead are in manifestation at once: (1) the voice of the Father, (2) the Son in His physical body, and (3) the Holy Spirit in the shape of a dove. This shows that the three Persons of the Trinity are distinct from each other, yet Scripture reveals that They are one (1 John 5:7). The Greek word for “one” in 1 John 5:7 is “HEIS,” and it signifies “a single (one), to the exclusion of others” (Vine’s Expository Dictionary), as well as united in purpose. This same Greek word is used in 1 Timothy 2:5, in which case it clearly means more than sameness of purpose.

The Trinity is first suggested in Genesis 1:26 by God saying, “Let us” (emphasis mine). One God spoke in the plural. Scripture has abundant references to the Father as God (ex. 1 Corinthians 8:6). Jesus is called God (Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1, 20:28; 1 Timothy 3:16; and Hebrews 1:8). The Holy Ghost is called God (Acts 5:3-4). Yet one of the great statements of the Old Testament from Deuteronomy 6:4 says that “the LORD our God is one LORD.” We do not have three Gods but one God clearly identifiable as three Persons. This is a great mystery that we do not have an adequate explanation for. Scriptures reveal the truth of the Trinity but make no attempt to explain it. We simply accept this revelation as it is, until we know all things, even as we are known (1 Corinthians 13:12).

Certainly, any actions or circumstances contrary to God’s perfect plan for us; grieve the Holy Spirit.

More specifically, all the things listed here (Ephesians 4:25-31) grieve the Spirit of God.

* Note 26 at Ephesians 4:31: Bitterness, wrath, and anger are related to each other and at times may become so interdependent that they are hard to distinguish from each other.

- Bitterness is the mildest of these three words. It could describe just resentment toward another person. Bitterness does not have to be expressed.

- Wrath is describing a violent anger, or rage, that is expressed.

- Anger, like bitterness, can be concealed; it does not have to be expressed.

* Note 27 at Ephesians 4:31: Strong’s Concordance defines “clamor” as “an outcry (...tumult or grief).”

It comes from a word that means “to scream” (Strong’s Concordance).

Wuest Word Studies from the Greek New Testament defines it as “the outcry of passion, the outward manifestation of anger in vociferation or brawling.”

Kindness is a characteristic of God’s kind of love

(see my note at 1 Corinthians 13:4). If we love others with God’s love, we will be kind.

The Amplified Bible defines “tenderhearted” as “compassionate, understanding, loving-hearted.”

* Note 28 at Ephesians 4:32:

The basis of our ability to forgive others is the fact that we have been forgiven ourselves. We can’t give what we don’t possess. If we aren’t walking in the forgiveness of God, we won’t minister it to others.

Since we have been forgiven, we can forgive others in the same way that God, for Christ’s sake, forgave us.

He forgave us before we repented or asked for forgiveness.

The offense against Him was infinitely greater than any offense we have ever suffered.

So, since He forgave us, we can forgive anyone.

Exactly how does Oil pulling work?

Coconut Oil Pulling for Oral Health


In recent years, the many health benefits of coconut oil have become common knowledge. From boosting the immune system, fighting inflammation, reducing the risk of diabetes and treating myriad skin issues, to name only a few of the benefits, coconut oil seems almost like a miracle.

Well, you can add oral hygiene to coconut oil’s miraculous and growing list of benefits.
What is Oil Pulling and How Does it Work?

Used primarily in Ayurvedic medicine, oil pulling is a terrific way to clean teeth and strengthen gums, all by swishing a tablespoon of oil (typically coconut oil, sesame or extra Virgin olive oil) in your mouth for 15-20 minutes.

Oil pulling detoxifies your oral cavity by literally “sucking” the toxins and bad bacteria out of your mouth, leaving behind a clean oral environment which promotes healthy teeth and gums.

This traditional remedy has been used for thousands of years to treat:

Tooth decay
Bad breath
Bleeding gums
Whiten teeth
Soothe throat dryness
Prevent cavities
Heal cracked lips
Strengthens gums and jaw

The History of Oil Pulling
Most of us cannot even begin to imagine starting or ending our day WITHOUT brushing and flossing our teeth. This healthy hygiene habit was drilled into our heads by our parents who stood by the sink, watching us brush, making sure we spent enough time and got every inch of our mouth clean.

But teeth brushing is a relatively new concept.
With a limited effect; Consider the fact that the common nylon-bristled toothbrush didn’t come onto the scene until the late 1930s! This means for thousands of years our ancestors did not brush their teeth with toothpaste. And yet, archeologists have found countless human remains dating back thousands of years with teeth still very much intact.

Even on the remains of humans who had lived to a “ripe old age.”

How is this possible?
Why didn’t our ancestors’ teeth rot?

For a couple of reasons.

The first, and perhaps most obvious reason, is that our ancestors ate real food that didn’t contain processed sugars and grain that destroy tooth enamel, among other things.

Secondly, they practiced good oral hygiene by using chew sticks, which were rubbed against their teeth. These sticks have been found in Egyptian tombs dating to 3000 B.C.!

And finally, depending on the culture and region of the world, many ancients also oil pulled.
Oil Pulling Research

While our ancestors knew the benefits of oil pulling, and those in the natural health circles have caught on in recent years, traditional science and medicine have been reticent to even consider oil pulling as something legitimately good for oral health.

To date, there are only a handful of oil pulling research studies, but still, it’s promising to see more information coming to light.

For instance, the Journal of Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine recently highlighted a study that reviewed holistic approaches to oral health.

The study’s author reported that oil pulling is one of the most effective natural health solutions known to scientists that prevent tooth decay and loss saying, “Oil pulling is a powerful detoxifying Ayurvedic technique that has recently become very popular as a CAM remedy for many different health ailments. Using this method, surgery or medication could be prevented for a number of chronic illnesses.

The oil therapy is preventative as well as curative. The exciting aspect of this healing method is its simplicity.”

Other studies have shown oil pulling’s ability to treat oral health issues.

For example, researchers from the Department of Pediatric Dentistry in Tamil Nadu, India, found that oil pulling reduces the Streptococcus mutants bacteria – one of the biggest culprits of tooth decay – in the plaque and saliva of children. In the author’s words, “Oil pulling can be used as an effective preventive adjunct in maintaining and improving oral health.”

Researchers from another Department of Pediatric Dentistry, this time in Chennai, India, reported that oil pulling can greatly reduce aerobic microorganisms in plaque among children with plaque-induced gingivitis. These same researchers found that oil pulling is as effective as mouthwash in reducing the microorganisms that cause bad breath.


Why Use Coconut Oil?
The studies referenced above specifically tested the effects of sesame seed oil on patients who oil pulled. This makes sense as sesame seed oil is a common staple found in India.
So why am I sharing the oral hygiene benefits of coconut oil specifically?

Because, beyond cleaning your mouth, coconut oil has been shown to:

Balance Hormones
Kill Candida
Improve Digestion
Moisturize Skin
Reduce Cellulite
Decrease Wrinkles and Age Spots
Balance Blood Sugar and Improve Energy
Improve Alzheimer’s
Increase HDL and Lower LDL Cholesterol
Burn Fat

Because coconut oil is highly absorb-able, you can experience many of these benefits simply by using oil pulling.

How Does One Oil Pull, Exactly?

Although oil pulling takes a bit to get used to, it’s quite simple to do.

One:
The best time to oil pull is in the morning upon rising and before you brush your teeth or dink anything.

Two:
Take one to two tablespoons (use less when just starting out) of coconut oil in your mouth. Some people do not like the feel of a solid chunk of coconut oil in their mouth.
Though it quickly melts, if you find this feeling unappealing, you can warm the oil in the microwave first.
Swish around your mouth and between your teeth as you would mouthwash for 15 – 20 minutes.

Three:
Be gentle. When you swish with mouthwash you typically only do so for 15 – 30 seconds. But oil pulling requires you swish for much longer. Be gentle so you won’t wear out your cheeks or jaw.

Four:
When finished, spit out the oil in the trash or a dedicated jar with a lid.
Do NOT spit in your sink or toilet as this is a surefire way to cause a clog.

Five:
Rinse your mouth with warm water and brush normally.

You can significantly improve the health of your teeth and gums if you oil pull three to four times per week.

Împărăția mea nu este din această lume

Împărăția mea nu este din această lume
Ioan 18:36 "Isus a răspuns: Împărăția Mea nu este din lumea aceasta; dacă Împărăția Mea ar fi din această lume, atunci lupta robului Meu ar fi fost ca să nu fiu eliberat Iudeilor, dar acum nu este Împărăția Mea de aici".
Ioan 18: 33-37
33. Atunci Pilat a intrat din nou la sediu, a chemat pe Isus și la întrebat: "Ești Regele Iudeilor?"
 34 Isus a răspuns: "Cereți acest lucru pe cont propriu sau altora v-ați spus despre mine?"35 Pilat a răspuns: "Eu nu sunt un evreu, nu-i așa? Națiunea voastră și preoții cei mai de seamă v-au predat la mine. Ce ai facut?'
 36 Isus a răspuns: "Împărăția Mea nu este din această lume. Dacă împărăția mea ar fi fost din această lume, urmașii mei s-ar fi luptat pentru a mă împiedica să fiu predat iudeilor. Dar așa cum este, împărăția mea nu este de aici.
 37 Pilat l -a întrebat: ,, Deci tu ești împărat? `` Isus a răspuns: ,, Voi ziceți că Eu sînt împărat. Pentru aceasta, m-am născut și pentru aceasta am venit în lume pentru a mărturisi adevărul. Toată lumea care face parte din adevăr ascultă vocea mea.

Împărăția lui Hristos este spirituală, în inimile oamenilor - nu fizice; prin urmare, lupta noastră ca creștini nu trebuie să fie cu arme carnale, ci cu arme spirituale (2 Corinteni 10: 3-5).
Forțele spirituale nu pot fi înfrânte cu arme umane.

Când suntem atacați pentru a face parte din Împărăția lui Hristos, trebuie să luptăm cu arme spirituale. Războiul nostru nu este împotriva oamenilor, ci împotriva puterilor spirituale care funcționează în spatele scenei prin oameni. Trebuie să ne dăm seama cine este dușmanul adevărat și să ne luptăm cu armele spirituale pe care Domnul ne-a dat-o.

Adesea credem că mânia va pune o persoană în locul lui. Dar "mânia omului nu lucrează neprihănirea lui Dumnezeu" (Iacov 1:20).Mânia manifestată împotriva oamenilor ne pune în mâna diavolului. Modul de a învinge puterile spirituale care vin împotriva noastră prin oameni este să întoarcem celălalt obraz (Matei 5:39).
 Asta face ca demonii să fugă în groază.

Unul dintre principalele arme despre care vorbește apostolul Pavel este Evanghelia, care este Sabia Duhului (Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu). Este Cuvântul susținut de Duhul lui Dumnezeu care poate trage în jos și sfărâma fortărețele lui Satana.

Fiecare creștin este în război.

 Există o luptă perpetuă împotriva Satanei și a regatului său, din care nu există "frunze" sau "evacuări".Vrăjmașul nostru merge ca un leu care răcnește, căutând pe cine poate să devoreze(1 Petru 5: 8). Cei care se împotrivesc diavolului îl vor vedea să fugă (Iacov 4: 7).

 Singurii pe care îi devorează sunt cei care nu se luptă în mod activ împotriva lui.

Acesta este ceea ce noi (voi) ar trebui să ia în considerare.

私の王国はこの世のものではありません

私の王国はこの世のものではありません
ヨハネ18:36「イエスは答えました、わたしの王国はこの世のものではありません。私の王国がこの世のものなら、私のしもべは戦い、私はユダヤ人に渡されるべきではありません。
ヨハネ18：33-37
33また、ピラトは再び本部に入り、イエスを呼び寄せて言った、「あなたはユダヤ人の王ですか」。
 34イエスは答えました、「あなたはこれをあなた自身で尋ねますか、他の人が私にあなたについて話しましたか？35ピラトは「ユダヤ人ではないのですか？あなたの国と大祭司があなたを私に渡しました。あなたは何をした？'
 36イエスは答えました。「わたしの王国はこの世のものではありません。もし私の王国がこの世のものだったら、私の信者は私がユダヤ人に引き渡されないように戦うでしょう。しかし、それは、私の王国はここから来たものではありません。
 37ピラトは彼に尋ねた。「あなたは王ですか？」イエスは答えました。「あなたは私が王だと言っています。このために私は生まれました。このために私は真実を証するために世界に来ました。真理に属する者は皆私の声を聞きます。

キリストの王国は、物理的なものではなく、人の心の中で精神的です。したがって、クリスチャンとしての私たちの戦いは、肉体的武器ではなく、霊的兵器で行われるべきである（2コリント10：3-5）。
精神的な力は人間の武器で打ち負かすことはできません。

私たちがキリストの国の一部として攻撃されているとき、私たちは精神的武器で戦わなければなりません。私たちの戦争は人々に対してではなく、人々の背後で舞台裏で働く霊的な力に逆らっています。本当の敵が誰であるかを認識し、主が私たちに与えた精神的武器と戦う必要があります。

私たちはしばしば、怒りが人を自分の場所に置くと思っています。しかし、「人の怒りは神の義を働かない」（ヤス1:20）。人々に対して表示された怒りは、私たちを悪魔の手にまっすぐに置く。人々を介して私たちに向かってくる霊的な力を克服する方法は、他の頬を回すことです（マタイ5:39）。
 そうすれば悪魔は恐怖の中で逃げることができます。

使徒パウロが主張している主な武器の一つは福音です。それは御霊の剣であり、神の言葉です。それは神の御霊に裏打ちされた言葉であり、サタンの拠点を引き下げて打ち砕くことができます。

すべてのクリスチャンは戦争中です。

 サタンと彼の王国に対して「葉」や「放電」がない永遠の闘いがあります。私たちの敵は、轟音のライオンであり、誰が彼を食べさせるのかを探します（ペテロ1：5：8）。悪魔に抵抗する者は、彼が逃げるのを見るでしょう（ジャス4：7）。

 彼が食べる唯一の人は積極的に彼と戦わない人です。

我的國不屬於這個世界

我的國不屬於這個世界
約翰福音18:36耶穌回答說，我的國不屬這世界;我的國若屬這世界，我的僕人必打仗，免得交給猶太人，現在我的國不屬這裡了。
約翰福音18：33-37
33彼拉多又進了總部，召耶穌來問耶穌說：你是猶太人的王嗎？
 34耶穌回答說：'你自己問這個問題，還是有人告訴過你我？35彼拉多回答說：我不是猶太人嗎？你們自己的國家和祭司長已經把你交給我了。你做了什麼？'
 36耶穌回答說：我的國不屬這世界。如果我的國度是從這個世界來的，我的追隨者們會為了阻止我被交給猶太人而戰鬥。但事實上，我的王國不是從這裡來的。
 37彼拉多問他說：你是王嗎？耶穌說：你說我是王。為此，我出生了，為此我來到這個世界，為了證明真相。每個屬於真理的人都聽我的聲音。

基督的國在人心中是屬靈的，不是肉體的;因此，我們作為基督徒的鬥爭絕不能用肉體的武器，而要用屬靈的武器（哥林多前書10：3-5）。
精神力量不能被人類的武器擊敗。

當我們因為成為基督國的一部分而受到攻擊時，我們必須與屬靈的武器作戰。我們的戰爭不是針對人民，而是針對人民幕後操縱的精神力量。我們必須認識到真正的敵人是誰，並與主所賜給我們的精神武器作鬥爭。

我們經常認為，憤怒會把人放在他的位置上。但是“人的忿怒並不行神的義”（雅1:20）。對人的憤怒使我們陷入魔鬼的手中。要克服那些通過人來攻擊我們的精神力量的方法，就是轉向另一個臉頰（太5:39）。
 這使得惡魔在恐怖中逃跑。

使徒保羅所說的一個主要武器是福音，就是聖靈之劍（神的話語）。這是受上帝聖靈支持的話語，可以打倒和粉碎撒旦的據點。

每個基督徒都在戰爭中。

 與撒但和他的國度進行永遠的鬥爭，沒有“離開”或“排出”。我們的敵人像一隻咆哮的獅子，尋找他可以吞噬的人（彼前五8）。那些抵擋魔鬼的人會看見他逃跑（雅四7）。

 他所吞噬的只有那些不積極與他作鬥爭的人。

Mon royaume n'est pas de ce monde

Mon royaume n'est pas de ce monde
Jean 18:36 Jésus répondit: Mon royaume n'est pas de ce monde. Si mon royaume était de ce monde, alors mon serviteur se battrait, afin que je ne sois pas livré aux Juifs; mais maintenant mon royaume n'est pas d'ici.
Jean 18: 33-37
33 Pilate rentra dans le quartier général, appela Jésus, et lui dit: Es-tu le roi des Juifs?34 Jésus répondit: As-tu demandé cela par toi-même, ou est-ce que les autres t'ont parlé de moi?35 Pilate répondit: Je ne suis pas Juif, n'est-ce pas? Votre propre nation et les principaux prêtres vous ont remis à moi. Qu'avez-vous fait?'36 Jésus répondit: Mon royaume n'est pas de ce monde. Si mon royaume venait de ce monde, mes partisans se battraient pour m'empêcher d'être livrés aux Juifs. Mais tel qu'il est, mon royaume n'est pas d'ici.37 Pilate lui demanda: Tu es donc roi? Jésus répondit: Tu dis que je suis roi. Pour cela, je suis né, et pour cela je suis venu dans le monde, pour témoigner de la vérité. Tous ceux qui appartiennent à la vérité écoutent ma voix.

Le royaume de Christ est spirituel, dans le cœur des hommes - pas physique; par conséquent, notre combat en tant que chrétiens ne doit pas être avec des armes charnelles, mais avec des armes spirituelles (2 Corinthiens 10: 3-5).
Les forces spirituelles ne peuvent être vaincues avec des armes humaines.

Lorsque nous sommes attaqués pour faire partie du royaume de Christ, nous devons nous battre avec des armes spirituelles. Notre guerre n'est pas contre les gens, mais contre les pouvoirs spirituels qui agissent dans les coulisses à travers les gens. Nous devons réaliser qui est le véritable ennemi et combattre avec les armes spirituelles que le Seigneur nous a données.

Nous pensons souvent que la colère mettra une personne à sa place. Mais "la colère de l'homme n'agit pas la justice de Dieu" (Jacques 1:20).La colère affichée contre les gens nous met directement dans la main du diable. Le moyen de vaincre les pouvoirs spirituels qui viennent contre nous à travers les gens est de tourner l'autre joue (Mt 5, 39).
 Cela fait fuir les démons dans la terreur.

L'une des armes principales dont parle l'Apôtre Paul est l'Evangile, qui est l'épée de l'Esprit (la Parole de Dieu). C'est la Parole soutenue par l'Esprit de Dieu qui peut abattre et écraser les forteresses de Satan.

Chaque chrétien est en guerre.

 Il y a une lutte perpétuelle contre Satan et son royaume d'où il n'y a pas de «feuilles» ou de «décharges».Notre ennemi se comporte comme un lion rugissant, cherchant qui il peut dévorer(1 Pi. 5: 8). Ceux qui résistent au diable le verront fuir (Jacques 4: 7).

 Les seuls qu'il dévore sont ceux qui ne combattent pas activement contre lui.
