Have you ever said that, "It is not Enough, . . . . .!"? Maybe to family, co-workers, employees, workers, church, . . . .
How about to . . . .GOD? Will GOD say that to YOU?
It is not enough for me, to assume that the few years of life that I have on earth, is all there is? I want to understand how I can lengthen my days if not remove death from the picture or going to the next Event.
Genesis 5:21) And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begot Methuselah. 22) And Enoch walked with God after he begot Methuselah three hundred years, and begot sons and daughters. 23) And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years. 24) And Enoch walked with God, and he was not; for God took him. Did Enoch follow GOD?
Exodus 32:30 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto the people: 'Ye have sinned a great sin; and now I will go up unto the LORD, peradventure I shall make atonement for your sin.' 31 And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said: 'Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them a god of gold. 32 Yet now, if Thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray Thee, out of Thy book which Thou hast written.' 33 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Whosoever hath sinned against Me, him will I blot out of My book.
Here we learn:
1) Even Moses could not forgiveness for another person.
2) GOD has Book of Names, and those removed are DEAD because of SIN. This book is also known as the 'Book Of Life'.
3) Judgment and the Book belong to GOD's.
4) Those that Sin against GOD are removed form the BOOK.
It is not enough for me to think that others should be better, I must strive to be better, even if they do not --it is after all is said and done MY SOUL that is effected by what I do.
http://www.mechon-mamre.org/p/pt/pt0420.htm This one I would like to give a summary, the l;ink is the whole chapter for you to read. In Numbers 20, the Children of Israel to the place that has ROCK and no water. The Elders and the people have been in the desert for several years --they should know better, that Moses whom the see and GOD whom they have seen and heard will not let them die because of lack of water
It is not enough to Know that GOD(the GOD of Abraham, the GOD of Isaac, the GOD of Jacob, Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, . . . .) IS GOD AND THE ONLY GOD ONE. I must seek out GOD and discover what HE wants, if I want to Live.
http://www.mechon-mamre.org/p/pt/pt0215.htm Exodus 15:25) And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD showed him a tree, and he cast it into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There He made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there He proved them; 26) and He said: 'If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in His eyes, and wilt give ear to His commandments, and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon thee, which I have put upon the Egyptians; for I am the LORD that healeth thee.'
Jeremiah 7:22 For I spoke not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt-offerings or sacrifices; 23 but this thing I commanded them, saying: 'Hearken unto My voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be My people; and walk ye in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.'
Deuteronomy 6: 4) Hear, O Israel: the LORD our God, the LORD is one. 5) And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
It is not enough to say the law. I must do(perform accordingly) so that my words are a copy of my actions.
It is not enough to watch others struggle to find the way. I must be available to show the way.
It is not enough to know right from wrong. I am required to be Righteous in my actions and deeds.
It is not enough to say I will be forgiven later. Later may not come. and if it does come and you are forgiven for your sins, the consequences of you actions will still have force upon you, your family and the world.
That is all for now, I will fill in later all of these and more. It is enough --for now.
