Partaking in Christ's Suffering? 

09/22 Daily (Heb.3:13;10:25;Matt.6:11;Luke 11:3) Exhortation…

Here is a 9:22 for 9/22 with/on which to let brew and chew for a few…

Luke 9:22 (KJB)  Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day.

John 9:22 (KJB) These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

See, Jesus was rejected of the Religious Leaders/House of Saul/Professional Organized Religion, Pharisees/Sadducees of His day, AND anybody identifying with Christ was likewise rejected. So it is today. How are these groups toward you today? 

Such is the case today for a Bride of Christ Christian. 

Matthew 10:25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household?

When Saul of Tarsus (later Paul) was persecuting the church/Christ’s BODY, Jesus said to him: “Saul, Saul, WHY PERSECUTEST THOU ME?” To attack Christ's body (church) is to attack HIM.

⚠️ DAILY JESUS WALK ALERT ⚠️ Waking, laying in bed, this above verse came to mind. I resurrect this charge from a previous year. THERE IT IS. 1 verse out of 31,102 and Jesus CONFIRMS IT IN MINUTES! 

The House of Saul will ALWAYS PERSECUTE THE BRIDE OF CHRIST. Every. Single. Time. Period. And, might I add, IN EVERY SINGLE TIME PERIOD. 

When Folks attack the pillar/ground of the truth (the church per 1 Tim. 3:15), they are attacking Christ's body, and thusly Him (the Truth per John 14:6). And, by extension, they attack the Bible (truth per John 17:17):

James 3:14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.

Catch that? And...

James 4:11-12 (KJB)  Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.

There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?

Something happens when folks FLEE or are put out of a Bona fide Bride local church (if it is a NT Accountability Assembly they usually quit while behind and before being "fired"). But they either repent and come back in, or they wander off in unrepentant sin, and either just go off in blatant rebellion against the truth, or just absorb into a House of Saul Professional church where they can hide and blend in with pretense.

The blind Pharisees turn a blind eye to sin in their ranks. It is tolerated and toyed with and the garbage guile is disguised under religious garb. 

Professional, organized religion is not the early church and is not in total a bona fide church today against which the gates of hell have not prevailed. Of course, God is ultimate Judge and there may be folks stuck in a system (bad headship, slothful parents, freshly born again babes, etc.). So, stay merciful. But the PRIMARY WILL OF GOD is New Testament Christianity. And, if you won't throw in the towel, this will stir up/amp up the Ephesians 6:12 grid against God’s people. 

It happened to Jesus. It happened to Paul. It happened to John. Who are WE to think we would not suffer for His name? 

May we be accounted worthy of His Kingdom and a partaker of Christ MUCH IN EVERY WAY this day, -r <3
