God's Not Willing That Any Should Perish

God's Not Willing

Did you know that the devil wants to take as many people with him to hell, mostly just because he hates God?
But God does not want anyone to go to hell. Many of us have heard growing up that God's going to send you to hell. I'm going to show you from the Bible what God really wants for us.

God gives us teachers and preachers to teach us how to be saved. God teaches us in his Word that we can know 100% that if we died we would go to heaven. I've heard people say many times you can not know for sure. Some even say that it's prideful to say you know you're going to heaven. Some say they don't know if they lived good enough to make it into heaven. Let's take a look at 1 John 5:13.

1John5:13
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
Notice these words: that ye may know that ye have eternal life,
Everlasting Life and Eternal Life are the same. heaven

Memorize this verse if you have not learned it already:
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

God loved us so much that he sent us Jesus who died for us so we could find salvation.

2Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

The word perish here means to die without God and to go to hell for eternity. It says that God is longsuffering to us and that He's not willing that any should perish. He just doesn't want anyone to go to hell.

In the old testament, you read many stories where God brings judgment upon a nation. Through war or disaster. Here are some of the places I recently talked about, Niniveh, the reason God sent Jonah to Nineveh was that God wanted him to warn the people of Nineveh that if they did not repent God would destroy Ninivah. God gave them 40 days to repent. God gave them a chance to repent.

Niniveh listened to Jonah and Repented. God had mercy and forgiveness for them. They all turned to God.

Egypt was warned by God to let his people go or he would bring disaster upon them. Moses warned the Pharoah that God would bring Judgement for his rebellion. He refused each time to let God's people go. God brought judgment and plagues upon Egypt.
God would have spared, but God hates rebellion.

The children of Isreal were free from their bondage, the freeing of bondage is a picture of salvation. When God saves someone spiritually it is called salvation. When a person gets saved from the bondage of sin, it is called salvation.

A New Creature

For years Sunday Schools all over the United States and other countries also, have used the butterfly, which is designed and created by God, who is the originator, to explain to children about being born again. When you accept Christ as your Saviour you become a new creature in Christ.

My daughter and my grandchildren have been doing a science experiment by putting together a small habitat to watch the changing of a caterpillar into a butterfly. My grandchildren just
we're so excited to witness the birth of eight butterflies and two more yet to spring out into a new life.

God is so good to give us the gift of this miraculous birth. My daughters allowed me to post pictures and video footage
of their homeschool experience. I'll post them tomorrow evening, Lord willing.

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. KJV

Removing The Little Foxes

Song 2:15 - Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes. 

Let us think of the grapes as children.  Protecting our children from other beliefs other than the truth of the word.  The foxes are cute but they are enemies of the vine.  

We are reminded that we must remove the foxes from the vine because the fruit will be ruined.


To Obey is Better Than Sacrifice
(The Little Foxes)

Jonah ran from what God wanted him to do.  When Jonah ran away, he was being rebellious to what God wanted him to do.  God would not let Jonah rebel without consequences.   God prepared a great fish ahead of time and God had that great fish swallow him.
God gave Jonah a choice, you either obey me or you're going to die.  Jonah then became obedient.  This is just one of many stories about disobedience.  The other person I'd like to mention is King Saul, 
Samuel the profit visited King Saul one day and King Saul was bragging about all his sacrifices to God. Samuel told King Saul that he was in rebellion against God.  He wasn't willing to do things God's way. He would not obey God but He would make sacrifices.
Samuel told King Saul He was rebellious and God no longer wanted him as King.  He told him rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft.  He went on and on about the sacrifices he had made but did not obey God.  God wants us to obey and do things his way.  Jesus said, if you love me you will obey me. 
John 1:17 
Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights. 
 John 2:1 
Then Jonah prayed unto the LORD his God out of the fish's belly,
 John 2:10  And the LORD spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.

When my girls were little, we let our kids watch some of the shows that had witchcraft, but my heart just didn't feel happy about it because the Bible teaches us that it is a sin.  I allowed it for a while but chose to apologize to my kids and told them we are not going to watch this anymore.  I told them ahead of time, we weren't going to discuss it.  If they cried, I told them they would get a spanking.
I asked them to forgive me for making the wrong choice of letting it in.  When you let things come into your home, then it becomes hard to get it out of your home.  I wanted to please God with my life and I wanted my kids to love God.  Rebellion is compared to witchcraft. These are sins that put the person's own will above God's will.

Love Of Money
The Little Foxes

1Timothy 6:10
 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

The love of money is a very dangerous thing.  The Bible teaches us that the love of money is the root of ALL evil.   the reason criminals happen is that they are controlled by money.  I heard recently of young adults stealing brand-new cars off the dealership parking lot.
They have been creative in the wrong way.  Caniving and coming up with money-making ideas. If they feel that someone is in their way they will try to get rid of the person that they feel is a threat to them.  The love of money can lead them to do many things, they learn to take advantage of the vulnerable. They could enslave a person without them ever knowing it.  Some of these money-making rich kids are brilliant and creative in doing evil things.

King Solomon

Coloring Page
Removing The Little Foxes

Solomon was concerned for his children. He had seven hundred wives and 300 concubines. The Bible does not give a clear account of how many children Solomon had.
Solomon had married into many religions and beliefs.
The palace had idols in it and confusion. Solomon wanted the false teaching and the idols removed from the palace. He wanted anything removed that would bring harm to his tender grape clusters. If all his wives had children, it would be 700 clusters of grapes. Remove the foxes. He wanted his children to know the true God and wanted to be blessed by God. He wanted the idols and anything else removed that could harm his children. He wanted his children to be raised the way he wanted them raised.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Now this is only for people who really want to serve God and please God with their lives.  We want to protect our tender grapes.  We would need to remove the little foxes from our home.  Anything that is contrary to what God wants you to teach.  Bad Tv, Bad Music, Bad books. Anything evil or weird. Whatever you know God would not approve of.  We need to love God and forsake evil. 

If you do this with our blogs or Facebook we can keep a safer place that is closed for our clusters. No bad links to other religions or beliefs, no bad links to witchcraft or false ideas. 

Solomon was a very wise man, he was blessed with wisdom.  
Solomon was out of God's will when he chose to wed all those women.
He pretty much put his wisdom over God's in the area of marriage.
However, God used Solomon as a way to teach us.
