* Does it matter if the Traditional abbreviation
B.C./A.D. or the New Age B.C.E./C.E. is used to describe Calendar dates?
Yes, it does. Significantly!
B.C./A.D. are the traditional abbreviations that stand for “Before Christ” and “Anno Domani” [Year of our Lord] A.D. Does NOT mean “After Death” as many erroneously believe.
B.C.E./C.E is a New Age invention that stands for “Before Common Era” and “Common Era”. [An effort to eliminate the person of Jesus Christ, writing Him out of History, by no mentioning of HIM, at all].

The Lord Jesus Christ [Anointed Messiah and King] was supernaturally Fathered by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin girl named Mary 2026 years ago in Bethlehem He was crucified, His lifeless body placed in a tomb and after three days, GOD brought Him back to life from the dead, victorious over sin, death and the grave. He is GOD’S Incarnate WORD and Everlasting sacrifice, The Lamb of God, God’s WORD [The WORD made flesh.] The Church is the Body of Christ, The Messiah. She is His espoused Bride, for whom HE will come again.
This singular event of His birth divides and establishes all Human History as either Before or After His Birth.

The 1769 Edition of The King James Bible is Divinely Inspired, Inerrant and Infallible, Providentially Preserved and Protected Words of GOD. They are God-Breathed and Eternal WORDS of Almighty GOD. The GOD who calls Himself “I AM” is Omni-Lingual, Omnipotent, Omniscient, Immutable, All-Wise, Omnipresent, Eternally Infinitely and Supremely Holy. He is the One-and-Only Triune Three-in-One GOD.
“I and my Father are one”. John 10:30
________________________________
1 John 5:7 Is the fundamental scriptural doctrine and essential tenet of the Trinity. [The Triune, [Three-in-One] GOD in-Three Persons (This verse has been repeatedly omitted or Changed in an attempt to diminish the authority and the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ or it has been Removed entirely from all Critical Text translations by apostates with the untenable goal of supporting False Doctrines that give rise to all manner of Cults, False Doctrines, Teachings and Heresies by false Prophets.
Therefore, The incarnate WORD of GOD, [Jesus *Christ (*The Anointed MESSIAH and KING) and His Father are ONE.]
7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, [Jesus Christ] and the Holy Ghost: and
these three are one. 8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, [Holy Ghost] and the water [Life of the Father], and the blood; [The Sacrificial Blood of Jesus Christ]: and these three agree in one. 9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son [Jesus Christ (The Anointed Messiah and King)].
GOD is “I AM” and Jesus Christ is The WORD made Flesh, GOD’s WORD is infinite and endures FOREVER, from Eternity Past through never-ending Eternity Future.

Charles Haddon Spurgeon’s Conversion In 1850, in his own words.
The preaching, teaching and writings of Charles Spurgeon
are saturated with God’s Word, the Bible. His publications continue to benefit readers with sermons and sound biblical teaching from one whose life was poured out like a drink offering to The Lord Jesus Christ, to whom Charlie [Charles Spurgeon] was a fully devoted follower. His love of Jesus Christ manifested itself in a singular love for and a never-ceasing effort toward winning souls of the unsaved multitudes. From one who became known as The Prince of Preachers he remained humble always proclaiming Christ, and Him crucified.
His ministry continues to thrive today at London’s Metropolitan Tabernacle.

All attempts to change the Bible by adding to, or taking away from the 1769 edition of the King James Version [KJV] of the Bible can never prevail because GOD Himself preserves and protects His inspired [God Breathed, Spoken] , inerrant, [without error] immutable [incapability of changing] and infallible [incapable of making mistakes or being wrong] God Breathed [Spoken] WORDS are Eternally Protected and Preserved from all counterfeit or variant readings, heresy, blasphemy, confusion , error, addition to, or subtraction from is given to GOD’s WORDS by GOD HIMSELF.
The Traditional Greek Text was first used in the FIRST Church at Antioch and was later called The Received Text [vis. Latin: Textus Receptus TR]. Over 6 Billion King James Bibles account for more sales world-wide than any other version or edition of the Holy Bible. More than all other Versions or Editions Combined.
__________________________________________
All Versions or Editions of Bibles that are NOT translated from the Traditional Text [AKA the Received Text (Latin:Textus Receptus) TR or The Byzantine Text] contain variant readings that diminish the person and works of Jesus Christ. All Glory belongs to The Almighty GOD. He has preserved and protected HIS WORD as immutable [incapability of any mutation or any change] in the 1769 Edition of the 1611 King James Version [KJV] Bible.
This version is also known as the Authorized Version [AV]. ALL GLORY, LOVE, HONOR AND RESPECT is due and must be given to the Omnipotent [Almighty], Omniscient [All-knowing], Omnipresent and Infinite GOD.
Over 5,321 hand written Greek Manuscripts known as the Majority Text support the Traditional Text AKA The [Latin: Textus Receptus] with 99% of the manuscripts in agreement.
Additionally, Translational Evidence from Jerome’s Latin Vulgate establish earlier evidence of the authenticity of The Traditional Text and goes back to the first Christian Church at Antioch.

PRAYER 12 March 14th Part 5 of 10 ON HOLY GROUND.
We do with all our hearts pray “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.” Lord, help us to do Thy will. Take the crippled kingdom of our manhood [secular humanism] and reign Thou over it. Let spirit and body be consecrated to [You, our] God. May there be no reserves [for self] ; may everything be given up to Thee. Reign forever!
Pierced King, despised and nailed to a tree, sit Thou on the glorious high throne in our hearts, and may our lives prove that Thou art [are] Lord over us; by our every thought and desire, and imagination, and word, and act, in every respect being under Thy divine control.
[In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ] Amen.

ANECDOTE 226: March 14th GOD’S DEFENSE OF HIS CHILDREN.
A man is generally much grieved with anyone who injures his children.
I have known a man behave patiently to his neighbors, and put up with a great deal from them; but when one of them has struck his child I have seen him incensed [angered] to the last degree. He has said, “I cannot stand that, I will not look on and see my own children ill-used.”
The Lord says,
“He that touches you touches the apple of my eye.”
Jesus rises from his throne in glory and stands up indignantly while his servant Stephen is being stoned. If I had no other amusement whatever, I would not for merriment’s sake mock the people of God; for it will go hard with those who make unhallowed mirth out of the saints of the Most High. ________________________________________
FAITH’S CHECKBOOK March 14th TENDER COMFORT
—As one whom his mother comforteth, [comforts] so will I comfort you —Isaiah 66:13
—Como aquel a quien consuela su madre, asi os consolare yo a vosotros —Isaias 66:13
A mother’s comfort! Ah, this is tenderness itself. How she enters into her child’s grief! How she presses him [them] to her bosom [gently hugs them] , and tries to take all his sorrow into her own heart! He can tell her all, and she will sympathize as nobody else can. Of all comforters the child loves best his mother, and even full-grown men have found it so. Does Jehovah [God] condescend to act the mother s part? This is goodness indeed. We readily perceive how He is a father; but will He be as a mother also? Does not this invite us to holy [pure and wholesome] familiarity, to unreserved confidence, to sacred rest?
When God Himself becomes -the Comforter- no anguish can long abide [remain]. Let us tell out our trouble, even though sobs and sighs should become our readiest utterance. He will not despise us for our tears; our mother did not. He will consider our weakness as she did, and He will put away our faults, only in a surer, safer way than our mother could do. We will not try to bear our grief alone: that would be unkind to one so gentle and so kind. Let us begin the day with our loving God, and wherefore should not [why shouldn’t] we finish it in the same company [in fellowship with Him], since mothers weary not [never grow tired] of their children?
Prayer: Thank you, Lord, that -As one whom my mother comforteth, [comforts] so will You comfort me. -Please help me to know and receive your tender comfort in all my heart-aches in Jesus name, Amen.

MORNING March 14th “LET HIM THAT THINKETH HE STANDETH TAKE HEED LEST HE FALL”
[Let him who thinks he stands, wake-up and consider himself wisely so that he doesn’t fall]—1 Corinthians 10:12
—Así que, el que piensa estar firme, mire [que] no caiga —1 Corintios 10:12
IT is a curious fact that there is such a thing as being proud of grace. A man says, "I have great faith, I shall not fall; poor “little faith” [Bunyan’s personified character in The Pilgrims Progress] may [fall] , but I never shall." "I have fervent love," says another, "I can stand, there is no danger of my going astray."
He who boasts of grace has little grace to boast of.
Some who do this imagine that their graces can keep them, knowing not that the stream must flow constantly from the fountain head, or else the brook will soon be dry. If a continuous stream of oil does not come to the lamp [oil lantern], though it burn brightly today, it will smoke tomorrow and noxious [stinky] will be its scent. Take heed [wake-up and consider] that you glory not [don’t glory] in your graces, but let all glorying and confidence be in Christ and His strength, for only in this way can you be kept from falling.
Be much more in prayer. Spend longer time in holy adoration [of the Lord Jesus]. Read the Scriptures more earnestly [carefully] and constantly. Watch your lives [behavior] more carefully. Live nearer to God. Take the best examples for your pattern. Let your conversation be redolent [saturated with a fragrance] of heaven. Let your hearts be perfumed with affection for [winning] men's souls.
So live that men may know that you have been with Jesus and have learned of Him; and when that happy day comes when He whom you love shall say "Come up higher," may it be your happiness to hear Him say,
"You have fought a good fight, you have finished your course, and hence¬ ;forth there is laid up for you a crown of righteousness that fades not away."
On, Christian, with care and caution! On, with holy fear and trembling! On, with faith and confidence in Jesus alone, and let your constant petition be,
"Uphold me according to Your word."
He and He alone is able "To keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy."
________________________________________
EVENING March 14th "I WILL TAKE HEED TO MY WAYS. " —Psalm 39:1
Atenderé á mis caminos —Salmos 39:1
FELLOW PILGRIM The Pilgrims Progress , say not in your heart, "I will go hither and thither [here and there], and I will not sin," for you are never so [much] out of danger of sinning as to [when you should] boast of security.
The road is very miry [muddy]; it will be hard to pick your path so as not to soil your garments. This is a world of pitch [sticky tar]; you will need to watch carefully, if in handling it you are to keep your hands clean.
There is a robber at every turn of the road to rob you of your jewels; there is a temptation in every mercy; there is a snare in every joy, and if you ever reach heaven, it will be a miracle of divine grace to be ascribed entirely to your Father's power.
Be on your guard. When a man carries a bomb-shell in his hand, he should make sure that he does not go near a candle; and you too must take care that you enter not into temptation. Even your common actions are [sharp] edged tools; you must watch how you handle them. There is nothing in this world to foster [build-up] a Christian's piety, but everything to destroy it.
How anxious [eager] should you be to look up to God, that He may keep you! Your prayer should be,
"Hold me up, and I shall be safe."
Having prayed, you must also watch; guarding every thought, word, and action, with holy jealousy. Do not expose yourselves unnecessarily; but if called to exposure, if you are called to go where the darts are flying, never venture forth without your shield [of faith]; for if the devil finds you without your buckler [armor] even once, he will rejoice that his hour of triumph is come, and will soon make you fall down wounded by his arrows.
Though slain you cannot be; wounded you may be.
"Be sober; be vigilant, danger may be in an hour when all seems secure to you."
Therefore, take heed to your ways, and watch in prayer.
No man ever fell into error through being too watchful. May the Holy Spirit guide us in all our ways,
so they always please the Lord.

A person comes to Jesus by believing and (whole heartedly) praying like this:
“Lord Jesus, I’m a sinner. I’m lost and hopeless without You. I will never be able to save myself by my own merits. Without you and your death on the cross I would deserve and spend forever in Hell.
I know that me doing my best or being good (in my own opinion) and justifying my own behavior as "good" or "OK" will never save me.
I look to You, alone Lord Jesus to save me.
I come to You right now. Lord Jesus. Please save me. I believe You died on the cross in my place to pay for my sin debt and put to death my sin nature. I know You always keep your word. Please save me. You say and it’s written in the Bible that you won’t reject anyone who comes to You. I'm coming to You now. Thank You for saving me.
I give myself (all of myself) to You, Lord Jesus. I declare that You are my Savior and Lord. I’m sorry for and I turn away from every sin (every bad thought, every bad word I have spoken and every bad thing I have ever done) and look to You free me from the penalty of sin, to keep me free from the power of sin and empower me overcome any temptation from sin’s presence. Thank you for forgiving all of my sins by dying on the cross to pay the punishment that I deserve. (I was a sinner by nature and by behavior). But now I'm washed clean by Your blood that was shed [poured out] for me at Calvary [at the cross].
Thank you Lord Jesus that You loved me and died for me before I was born and that You love me now and will always love me and will never reject or turn your back on me. I know You are the Way, the Truth and the Life and that no one can come to the Father other than by You.
Thank you Father that You have made a way for me to see myself as ungodly. But, because You are good You have made a way and given me the desire to come to You, to turn away from my sin and to trust in the Lord Jesus. You have forgiven me because He took my place and You have provided for me to be born again [born from above, born of the Holy Spirit].
You prompted this desire and faith to believe in Your only begotten Son who,gave up His life and died on the cross to pay my sin debt, not mine alone, but the sins of the whole world.
Thank You, Heavenly Father that you raised Jesus from the dead. He is ALIVE and in Him we are victorious over sin, death and the grave and in Christ Jesus there is no condemnation. After You raised Him from the dead You gave Him a Glorified, [everlasting] physical body and after he was seen by many witnesses on earth You took Him up to reign with You in heaven.
I pray this in the name, of Your only begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ with a grateful heart. Thank You for saving me heavenly Father and for sending the Comforter, The Spirit of Truth, for my guidance and solemn instruction into all truth., Amen.”
Thank You Holy Spirit of Truth, The Comforter, The Paraclete [true friend who is by your side and always has your back] for the new life in Jesus and the victory that comes when I recon myself dead indeed unto sin and alive unto God through Christ Jesus our Lord trusting You, Holy Spirit for Your empowerment to see this promise fulfilled. Romans 6:11
Thank you that you, Holy Spirit, always exalt [lift up] the Lord Jesus. John 16:8-11
With all my heart, I thank you Lord Jesus for saving me.
I ask now that You live Your life through me in Your name, Lord Jesus I pray, Amen.
Please allow us to celebrate with you and with the angels in heaven at the news of your new birth. Please write to:

… and pray for souls to be saved and believers to be strengthened
The Lord … is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9
Pray also that believers will be led… by the Holy Spirit to rightly divide and proclaim God’s Word providentially protected and preserved by God, Himself.
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.
For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in Heaven. Psalm 119:89
God is not the author of confusion. 1 Corinthians 4:33
God, Himself, providentially protects and preserves His WORD. All of His Word is inspired, [God-breathed], self-authenticating, immutable [unchanging and unchangeable], eternal, inerrant, infallible, infinite and all-powerful [omnipotent] Word.
MISSION PURPOSE:
We aim to be fully devoted followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. We trust the Holy Spirit to impart God’s divine revelation to us from His Word, the Holy Bible. We trust that many who are lost will be saved, that believers will be comforted, strengthened and encouraged as we are being conformed to the image of the Lord Jesus Christ; all, to God’s glory.
Divine Scripture is God’s infinite, eternal, inerrant, infallible, immutable revelation to all mankind. Herein, all revealed truth is given to the world. It is God-breathed [inspired] , self-authenticating [compare scripture to scripture] and providentially protected and will endure, immutable, forever. We purpose, therefore, with God enabling, to rightly divide and follow The Holy Bible in all things. Personal guidance in Holiness and all divine revelation to His Church body are through God’s Holy Word, the Bible.
Hence, we resolve, God helping us, to pray, read, study, meditate-on, trust-in and obey God’s revealed and divinely preserved Word, holding it to be the final authority and legal precedent in all things as the divinely established Stare Decisis [Latin: to stand by that which is decided].
Therefore, the purpose of The John Mark Publishing Company is to publish and proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to every creature, ministering God’s love to all, especially those in the household of faith. The Bible is God’s everlasting, inspired, (God breathed) inerrant, infallible, unchangeable, divinely protected and preserved Word of love and salvation to the entire world forever settled in heaven.
It is also the essence and foundation of this ministry as we aim to encourage a fully devoted discipleship demonstrating devotional vigor.
History: The preaching, teaching and writing of Charles Haddon Spurgeonc, continues to reveal God’s love through His WORD, rightly divided and conforming to all doctrines of Biblical Christianity.

_________________________________________________
Alterations to and alternative readings in Biblical Text were brought about by the Critical Greek Text of Westcott & Hort and was used to translate the: NIV, ESV, RSV and other Modern Language Translations. These Greek translations came from the Greek Codices Vaticanus and Sinaiticus. 90% is from Vaticanus and 8-9% from Sinaiticus and were the principle source Texts used by Westcott and Hort to invent their Critical Greek Text. There are more disagreements than there are agreements between these two Codices.
17 verses are deleted out of the New Testament in the Critical Text. 7,000 words are deleted.
Codices Sinaiticus and Vaticanus are counterfeits that were overwritten in the 10th 11th and completely overwritten in the 15th centuries. There are more points of disagreement than there are points of agreement between them.
The Geneva Bible was also translated from the Traditional Greek Text, The Textus Receptus [The Received Text] including comments favorable to the Protestant Reformation from, devoted, faithful Christian men of GOD; Puritan Believers whose lives were beyond reproach.
This Bible was brought to Plymouth Massachusetts in the American Colonies by the Puritan Pilgrims guided by Captain Christopher Jones’s on the Mayflower sailing ship in 1620. A 1592 Edition of the Geneva Bible that belonging to a Mayflower passenger and the Governor of the Plymouth Colony (Later to become the State of Massachusetts) by William Bradford and is on display at the Pilgrim Hall Museum in Plymouth, Massachusetts, the oldest continuously operating public museum in the United States.
The traditional Textus Receptus [The Received (Greek) Text] unlike any other Greek Text was taken from more than 5,321 original Majority (Greek Manuscript) Text [MT] that agree 99% with one another. Other variant readings stem from Greek translations invented by either Westcott and Hort or Nestle and Aland. These fabricated Greek Texts were translated from only a handful [45] of Majority Text Manuscripts MT and lack the trustworthiness of the inspired 1769 [1611] King James Version, KJV or the Geneva Bible and are the only two translations of the traditional, reliable, inspired, [GOD BREATHED] immutable and providentially and divinely protected Textus Receptus [TR]
There is also translational evidence from Jerome’s Latin Vulgate that establishes The Traditional Greek Text as both the OLDEST and the BEST. [Unlike the Counterfeit proofs offered with The Critical Test].

Can the Website DAILYSPURGEON be trusted? Is it trustworthy?
Is it of God?
YES, it can! Yes, it is! Here’s why.
1 John 4:1-3
Beloved ones, don’t be believing every spirit [everyone or !everything] you hear but be testing the spirit [voice] whether it is of God: because many false prophets have gone [come] out into the world. Here’s how you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit [voice] that confesses [avows] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh, having come[who came] out of God, is of God: and every spirit that confesses not [doesn’t audibly avow] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Therefore I do confess, that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh.
[All translations of the Bible that use Greek translations other than the Traditional AKA the faithful Textus Receptus do not have the Greek word “ictin”. This word means “is” in English] and its exclusion causes the meaning of its translation, “is here” to change to “has” come.
This mistake is self-evident because non-believers, false prophets, atheists and even heretics can, and frequently do, affirm that Jesus Christ “has come” [in the flesh].
While this is a true statement, taken at face value, the meaning of “has come” is clearly not the same as “is here”. When “has” come is the meaning the test God has given in His Word to discern whether words being analyzed are from the Spirit of God or the spirit of antichrist is made void.
One of the most well documented facts in all human history is that Jesus The Christ [The Anointed Messiah] “has” come in the flesh. However, the essential question is not whether the spirit [a spoken or written word] confesses that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh but, whether this confession affirms that Jesus Christ, “is come” [is here], in the flesh.
Please Compare and consider [Meditate upon] this scripture with other related scriptures. Precept upon precept, Line upon line…
Isaiah 28:10-14

Ephesians 5:30-32
For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.32 This is a great mystery: but I [The Apostle Paul] speak concerning Christ and the church. [The Church body and Bride of CHRIST]
“I speak concerning Christ and the church.” [the fleshly embodiment, here and now, of the body of Christ]. Because followers of Jesus Christ are members of the incarnate Body of Christ [The Church] I freely affirm and avow that Jesus Christ is hereNot “Has come”] in the flesh.

Which Bible Is The Best? (57 minutes) David Hocking
David’s Summary (8 minutes) The problem behind Bible translations is not English. The issue is what Greek text was being used. I believe the true Author is The Holy Spirit. I believe this is the Word of God… We need to understand that The word of GOD in and of itself is power. Power to change your life and through the work of the Holy Spirit can produce the New Birth. We are born again of an incorruptible seed of the Word of God which liveth and abideth forever.
- David Hocking

THE WORDS of GOD Are :
Immutable, [unchangeable and, incapable of mutation or change]
Inspired, [God breathed, spoken],
Infallible,[Incapable of failing, making a mistake or being wrong]
Inerrant [Without error]
Self-Authenticating [The Bible is considered to be self-authenticating because proponents who believe it to be so know it contains inherent divine qualities—Such qualities are unity, majesty, power, and internal consistency—that reveal its divine origin, that convinces readers of its truth without relying on external historical proof or church testimony.
This concept, championed by the Reformation, know that the Holy Spirit illuminate:
the "heavenliness of its matter," the "efficacy of its doctrine," and the "majesty of its style" within the text itself, allowing God's Word to be received directly, the same way as seeing God's glory in Christ.]
Divinely Protected and Providentially Preserved:
Psalm 12:6-7: 6 The words of the Lord are pure words:
as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
7 Thou shalt keep them [Thy Words] (Note Plural), O Lord, thou shalt preserve them [Thy Words] from this generation for ever. (KJV).
Isaiah 40:8: 8 The grass withereth, [withers] the flower fadeth [fades] :but the word of our God shall stand for ever. (KJV).
Matthew 5:18: 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. (KJV).
Matthew 24:35: 35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. (AKJV).
1 Peter 1:23: 23 being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. (KJV).
1 Peter 1:25: 25 but the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you. (KJV).
Psalm 119:89: 89 For ever, [sic] O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven, Psalm 119:89). (KJV).
The Authorized King James Version (AKJV) also known as The King James Version, Edition of 1769 (KJV), The Authorized Version (AV) and The Geneva Bible are faithful Translations from the preeminent, [surpassing all others], Traditional Greek Text which predates the name given to the Textus Receptus [The Received Text] TR, and is superior to all modern Critical Text translations rendered from inferiorGreek Sources that include: (Westcott & Hort, Nestle & Aland, and Codices Vaticanus, Sinaiticus and Alexandrus).
John 1:1: 1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and
the Word was God.
_____________________________________________________
John 1:1-3 1In the beginning was he Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2The same was in he beginning with God. 3 all things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made.
(KJV) The Authorized Version AV Translation was faithfully translated by fully consecrated, and dedicated men of faith, beyond reproach, preeminent linguists, language scholars who were fully devoted followers of The Lord Jesus Christ. The 1611 King James translation is from the inerrant, inspired and immutable Textus Receptus [Received Text]:
Psalm 119:89 ל (Lamed) For ever, [sic] O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven.
“Thy Word” is The Inspired and Ultimate Stare Decisis [A Legal Term in Latin that establishes the principle of “Legal Precedence”. It means to stand by things decided, and to uphold all things God-Breathed [Inspired] and therefore eternally, Divinely and immutably decided FOREVER]
4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth [says] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Therefore, I now confess that “Jesus Christ is here in the flesh.”
[All other English translations of the Bible that use Greek manuscripts other than the Textus Receptus erroneously renders the English translation “Has come”.
This Translation error is because inferior Greek manuscripts do not include the Greek word “ictin” (This is The Greek word for is that is found only in the Majority Text of the Textus Receptus) and therefore the failure to correctly translate “ictin” [Is Here] into English.
The Authorized King James Version AKJV also known as The Authorized Version AV and the Geneva Bible stand alone in making and giving the correct translation: “is here”.
This error: “has come” is self-evident, because non-believers, false prophets and even heretics can, and sometimes will, make the confession that He “has come” in the flesh. This is no surprise because the birth of Jesus Christ is the most well documented fact in all of recorded history. Indeed, it is a true and factual statement that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. Yet, while this is, a true and factual statement, the meaning in scripture has now been erroneously changed. The new and erroneous meaning is that now even if He “has come” in the flesh the confession that JESUS CHRIST IS HERE IN THE FLESH is impossible for THE SPIRIT OF ANTICHRIST who is the creator of all heresies to confess. Without it, Don’t believe anything that is said or written.
NEITHER does it provide for the test for believers to discern whether a spirit [voice or written words being read or heard] are from God or from the Antichrist. It is true that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh, but it’s essential that the confession that Jesus Christ, “IS HERE IN THE FLESH” Be confessed [be spoken].
________________________________________________________
By Reading, comparing and meditating on any specific Scripture together with other relevant Scriptures, God’s Word clarifies and self-authenticates:
Therefore we will read and meditate on:
1 John 4:1-3 with Ephesians 5:30-32
Authorized (King James) Version
1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
30: for we are members of his [Jesus Christs’] body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and His bride the church.
[We are members of His body, flesh and bones, one flesh with Him, as His bride the church].
He was born of a virgin 2026 years ago, and HE lives today,
and He is soon returning for His bride, The Church.
"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:
God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,
believed on in the world, received up into glory. "1 Timothy 3:16

Preaching is from The Metropolitan Tabernacle (London) by Pastor, Dr. Peter Masters, Charles Spurgeon other Reformed Preachers are prayerfully selected to focus on \daily devotional topics so that sinners will be saved and believers will be encouraged, challenged and built-up in the Faith of Jesus Christ. We pray that all believers who visit the website will become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ fully conformed to the image of Jesus Christ, The Messiah.
___________________________________________
It should be the desire of every born-again believer to worship God with all their heart, soul, mind and strength, in Spirit and in truth.
“Study to show yourself approved unto God, a worker that needs not be ashamed, rightly dividing [accurately sharing] the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15
To this end, Heavenly Father, we pray that You will bless all who visit this website and bring many to confess the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord. We ask this in Jesus’ name, Amen.
This Website can not replace nor can it be a substitute for the in-person, personal assembling of ourselves together as is the manner of some. Hebrews 10:23-27
Rather, its purpose is to save lost sinners and to teach and encourage believers through God’s Word and prayer to become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ [The Anointed Messiah] in personal discipleship and worship of the Lord Jesus as we are predestined to be conformed to His very image.
“For whom God did foreknow he did also predestinate to be conformed to the image of his son…” Romans 8:29
We are, instructed in the Word of GOD to assemble, praise and worship God. Thus, we must assemble and worship the Lord Jesus Christ and exhort [encourage] and provoke one another to do good works.
Such worship may take place through, congregational singing of sacred hymns and spiritual songs, reading, preaching and obeying God’s Word, sharing Christian love and fellowship, agreeing together with specific public prayer requests, and reading and exhorting one another in the Word, to provoke one another to love and serve and bear witness with one another in the Holy Ghost.
Warning: Online streaming cannot satisfy personal interaction or the warm fellowship of in-person assemblies of brothers and sisters who are in Christ Jesus. Electronic media cannot substitute for the warm inter-personal love, fellowship, commitment, and compassion, nor does it provide for a kind and comforting touch or embrace of another believer. e.g. Laying on of hands, 1 Timothy 4:14; the right hands of Christian fellowship, Galatians 2:9; or an embrace, Acts 20:1; or greeting with a holy kiss,
We give thanks to the Lord, for the Website DailySpurgeon.com and pray that it will continue to be used of The Lord Jesus to build up fully devoted followers of the Lord Jesus Christ [Anointed Messiah] . These followers will be taught to be disciples themselves and will then teach others to be disciples.
We pray that you will also be a radiant messenger of God to share the good news of Jesus Christ with every one, encouraging them to believe in Christ Jesus and to become the very image of Jesus Christ.
This ministry was begun as daily e-mails of Faith’s Checkbook by Charles H. Spurgeon were sent to John -Michael’s son, Jon Edward Riley. Jon shared these messages with others and soon over 300 were added to the mailing list through his witness as he witnessed and shared his testimony with them.
Jon was called home by his loving Father in Heaven on January 16, 2021 leaving a legacy of this Website to minister to all who will benefit in this labor of Love to the glorify God and His Eternal Kingdom. ALL Glory belongs to GOD, alone.
Jon is honored here; giving honor to whom honor is due. Romans 13:7
We pray that many will be born again, challenged, encouraged, and built-up to become fully devoted followers of the Lord Jesus Christ and be conformed to His image; that they might be the firstborn among many brethren. Romans 8:28-29.

Jon loved to say, “I’m a blood-bought, born-again Child of God!” to anyone he happened to meet.
… Jon’s testimony lives on from one who, by grace, through faith was forever accepted in the Beloved; who’s loving ways brought the good news of Jesus to many. and one who is now present with the LORD in glory forever. One who, one day, we’ll reunite..
Jon would sometimes just sing-out some of the following songs on the way to church, or just singing along with the Elvis Gospel CD that was always in our F-150’s CD player while riding with his Dad or, Best of all, when an inspired, spontaneous praise from the Lord would just pop out from his joyful, creative, redeemed and loving heart.
Some of Jon’s Favorites:
I Love You Lord by the Gaither choir
I Love You Lord Universal Music Group
I LOVE You Lord by Jared Reynolds
Where No One Stands Alone Gaither Vocal Band
Lead Me & Rock-a My Soul by Elvis and friends
He Knows Just What I Need by Elvis
How Great Thou Art with Elvis
Lead Me & Rock-a My Soul Elvis and friends
Lead Me, Guide Me by Elvis
It Is No Secret by Elvis written by Stuart Hamblen
The following recordings were discovered several months after Jon was called home on January 16th 2021. It’s such a blessing, to hear Elvis sing the Gospel message in song but it can’t compare with the Glory of being in the presence of the LORD for all eternity.
LIFE by Elvis
*I Can Only Imagine being present with the LORD, or hearing the completed song the Lord completed with Jon when he arrived; a song known only to the Lord, to Jon and the few who heard Jon sing it here. Lyrics remembered from him singing: "See my Jesus, Walkin' on duh Waduh"… an original, inspired song from our beloved Jon, himself a true and renown original.
* Click and sing:
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE with Wynonna Judd.
LOVE WITHOUT END, AMEN (A Father’s Love) by George Strait honoring George H.W. Bush (41st President) A favorite song of the President.
It’s also my sincere message of love to all my children, grand-children and great grand-children and all loved ones.
…Jon would always say “Later”; [as in, see-ya later] instead of “good bye”. It was the only farewell greeting he would ever use when parting company with a friend; and, everyone was Jon’s friend.
… He would never say “good-bye”.
Now, as we remember the sound of him saying “Later”, it rings true in a new and deeper meaning and it brings a joy and comfort to the hearts of those whom he loved so well; those who love him still and will forever more.
… and how much sweeter to us now, are the promises in these two Hymns:
’TILL WE MEET AGAIN. (sing along, won’t you?)

God Appeals to Reason Isaiah 30:15-21 with Dr. Peter Masters
Before conversion, the claims of God mean nothing to us, but when God's Word speaks to our hearts, [by the Holy Spirit] the challenge becomes inescapable [and Irresistible ]. Self-searching begins, and the kindness of God's forgiving love is grasped as never before. Here is God's reasoning with souls.

What Is the Gospel by the late Dr. R. C. Sproul
Christians are called to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ, but in our day there is confusion about the content of the Gospel. The biblical Gospel is challenged not only by Roman Catholics and liberals, but by those who claim to be evangelical. In this lecture, Dr. R. C. Sproul will clarify exactly what the Gospel is and what it is not.

The Phenomenon of Love Isaiah 63.7 Dr. Peter Masters
The nature and scope of human love is impressive, but Divine love, made visible in history and, supremely in the atoning sacrifice of Christ, is limitless, freely bestowed and certain toward all who find Him. Here are the 'loving-kindnesses of the Lord' they experience.
Living for the Flesh or for the Spirit Romans 8.5-6 Dr. Peter Masters
There are two classes of people in the Bible, those who focus on 'the flesh', and those who relate to the Spirit. Here are the characteristics and goals of each, and how God can free us from the captivity of flesh to know communion with Himself.
Mutual Debts in Marriage 1 Corinthians 7:3 Dr. Peter Masters 15 January 2012
A key word has slipped out of some modern translations – the marital debt of benevolence, meaning goodwill and kind benefits. Here are seven debts each has to the other in Christian marriage, a sevenfold bond and blessing to the crowning earthly friendship of life’s journey. Are we paying what is ‘due’?
God’s Order for Man and Women 1 Corinthians Ch 11 Dr. Peter Masters
Paul answers the question on the roles of husbands and wives and affirms conformity to the dress code of head coverings in Greek society at that time. With Calvin and major confessions we show that the ‘message’ of clothing may change in other ages and lands.

The True Source of Power with Dr. Peter Masters
Sunday Morning 23 January 2022
For the Gospel to be credible, (the Corinthians [and many today] erroneously taught), we need conspicuous personalities or preachers. Here Paul proclaims the true source of spiritual power, the preaching of the cross of Christ, and why it is foolishness to the perishing and power to the saved.
