PRAYER 2, Part 5 of 5 THANKS BE UNTO GOD.

Lord, keep us all from sin; [from sinning] teach us how to walk circumspectly [with wisdom] ; enable us to guard our minds against error of doctrine, our hearts against wrong feelings, and our lives against evil actions. Oh, may we never speak unadvisedly with our lips, nor give way to [act out in] anger. Above all, keep us from covetousness [envy] which is idolatry, and from malice which is of the devil. Grant unto us to be full of sweetness and light. May love dwell in us and reign in us. May we look not every man on his own things, but every man on the things of others. Give us to live for Jesus. There is no life like it. Help us to be Christly [Christ-like] men, Christ’s men, and may we in all things reflect the light which we receive from Him. Bless our beloved Church, and all its organizations. O God, take care of it. Oh! do thou [Oh, please] make every member of the Church a pastor over others. Let all strive [be diligent and work eagerly] together for the good of all, and so may Thy kingdom come among us. And do Thou [please] prosper all the churches [true believers] of Jesus Christ. What we ask for ourselves we seek for them. Let missionaries especially be helped by Thy [Holy] Spirit, and may there come a day in which the minds of men may be better prepared to receive the Gospel, and may Messiah’s Kingdom come to the overthrow of
...Her that sitteth [sits] on the Seven Hills and to the eternal waning of Mohammed’s moon
Islam’s demise to the overthrow of every idol, that Christ alone may reign.

Our whole heart comes out in this. Reign, Immanuel, reign; sit on the high throne; ride on Thy White Horse; and let the armies of heaven follow thee, conquering and to conquer.

Come, Lord Jesus; even so, come quickly. [In your name Lord Jesus I pray,] Amen and Amen. ________________________________________

ANECDOTE 12 The Atonement, a Sword.
When a man gets a sword, you cannot be quite certain how he will use it. A gentleman has purchased a very expensive sword with a golden hilt and an elaborate scabbard; he hangs it up in his hall [living room] wall, and exhibits it to his friends. Occasionally he draws it out from the sheath, and he says, “Feel how keen [sharp] is the edge !”
The precious blood of Jesus is not meant for us merely to admire and exhibit. We must not be content to talk about it, and extol [brag about] it, and do nothing with it; but we are to use it in the great crusade against un-holiness and unrighteousness, till it is said of us, “They overcame him [satan] by the blood of the Lamb.” This precious blood is to be used for overcoming, and consequently for holy warfare.

We dishonor it if we do not use it to that end [for that purpose]. ________________________________________

FAITH’S CHECKBOOK AUGUST 11 C.H. Spurgeon 1834 - 1892
WAITING, NOT RUNNING
-Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation- Psalm 62:1
En Dios solamente está acallada mi alma; De él viene mi salvación. Salmos 62:1

Blessed posture! — waiting truly and only upon the Lord. Be this our condition all this day [all day long], and every day. Waiting [for] His leisure, waiting in His service, [waiting upon him as a waiter waits upon a restaurant guest] waiting in joyful expectation, waiting in prayer, and content [waiting contentedly]. When the [our] very soul thus [like this] waits, it is in the best and truest condition of a creature [a created one] before his Creator, a servant before his Master, a child before his Father. We allow no dictation [giving orders] to God, nor complaining of Him; we will permit no petulance [impatience], and no distrust. At the same time, we practice no running before the cloud [jumping the gun] , and no seeking to others for aid: neither of these would be waiting upon God.

God, and God alone, is the expectation of our hearts.

Sing: Blessed assurance!

— from Him salvation is coming; it is on the road [on the way]. It will come from Him, and from no one else. He shall have all the glory of it, for He alone can and will perform it. And He will perform it most surely in His own time and manner. He will save from doubt, and suffering, and slander, and distress.

Though we see no sign of it as yet, we are satisfied to abide in the Lord’s will, for we have no suspicion of His love and faithfulness. He will make sure work of it before long, and we will praise Him at once for the coming mercy.

Prayer: Thank You Heavenly Father that my soul truly waits upon You and from You comes my salvation. Give me a willing and patient heart, bid [ask] what You will of me, send me where it pleases You.
Thank You Heavenly Father, for saving me, in Jesus name, Amen.

MORNING August 11
"Oh that I were as in months past. " —Job 29:2
— Quién me tornase como en los meses pasados— Job 29:2
NUMBERS of Christians can view the past with pleasure, but regard the present with dissatisfaction; they look back on the days they have passed in communing with the Lord as being the sweetest and the best they have ever known, but as to the present, it is clad in a sable garb [clothes of mourning] of gloom and dreariness. Once they lived near to Jesus but now they feel that they have wandered from Him, and they say, "0 that I were [could be] as in months past!" They complain that they have lost their evidences or that they have not present peace of mind or that they have no enjoyment in the means of grace or that conscience is not so tender or that they have not so much zeal for God's glory.

The causes of this mournful state of things are manifold. It may arise through a comparative neglect of prayer, for a neglected [prayer] closet is the beginning of all spiritual decline.
Or it may be the result of idolatry. The heart has been occupied with something else more than with God; the affections have been set on the things of earth, instead of the things of heaven. A jealous God will not be content with a divided heart; He must be loved first and best. He will withdraw the sunshine of his presence from a cold. wandering heart.
Or the cause may be found in
self-confidence and self-righteousness. [When] Pride is busy in the heart, and self is exalted instead of lying low at the foot of the cross. Christian, if you are not now as you "were in months past," do not rest satisfied with wishing for a return of former happiness, but go at once to seek your Master, and tell Him your sad state.

Ask His grace and strength to help you to walk more closely with Him; humble your self before Him, and He will lift you up, and you will yet again enjoy the light of His countenance [glowing face] .

Do not sit down to sigh and lament;

while the beloved Physician lives there is hope, nay [no, yet] there is a certainty, of recovery for the worse cases.

EVENING August 11
"Everlasting consolation. " —2 Thessalonians 2:16
—Consolación eternal — 2 Tesalonicenses 2:16

CONSOLATION. There is music in the word: like David's harp, it charms away the evil spirit of melancholy [depression]. It was a distinguished honor to Barnabas to be called "the son of consolation." It is one of the illustrious names of one greater than Barnabas, for the Lord Jesus is

"the consolation of Israel."

"Everlasting consolation"—here is the cream of all, for the eternity of comfort is the crown and glory of it. What is this "everlasting consolation"? It includes a sense of pardoned [forgiven] sin. A Christian man has received in his heart the witness of the Spirit that his iniquities are put away like a cloud, and his transgressions [sins] like a thick cloud. If sin be pardoned, is not that an

everlasting consolation?

Next, the Lord gives His people an abiding [continuous] sense of acceptance in Christ.

The Christian knows that God looks on him as standing in union with Jesus. Union to the risen Lord is a consolation of the most abiding order [longest-standing kind]; it is, in fact, everlasting. Let sickness prostrate [flatten] us, have we not seen hundreds of believers as happy in the weakness of disease as they would have been in the strength of hale [hearty] and blooming health?

Let death's arrows pierce us to the heart, our comfort dies not [never dies], for have not our ears often heard the songs of saints as they have rejoiced because the living love of God was shed abroad [fully present] in their hearts in dying moments?

Yes, a sense of acceptance in the Beloved is an everlasting consolation. Moreover, the Christian has a conviction [blessed assurance] of his security. God has promised to save those who trust in Christ: the Christian does trust in Christ and he believes that God will be [is] as good as His word and will save him.

He feels that he is safe by virtue of his being bound up with the person and work of the Lord Jesus [Christ].

A SINNER’S PRAYER: … FOR WHOSOEVER: [For One and all]

Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21
Call on the name of the Lord Jesus and be saved … pray like this, won’t you?

“Lord Jesus, I’m a lost sinner and without You I am hopeless. I can’t save myself. Without your death on the cross for my sin debt I would be condemned to spend eternity condemned to Hell. I have been self-centered from birth. Please forgive me.
I realize that doing my best, being as good as possible, or being better than other people can never save me. . I’m guilty and sorry for each and every sin I have done and look to You to forgive me of them all.
I look to You, alone Lord Jesus to save me.
I call on You, Lord Jesus, right now to save me. You died on the cross for me, because of my sin and You say, “It shall come to pass that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21.

Right now, just as I am, I call on You, Lord Jesus to save me, I trust You, to be my Lord and Savior from now on.
Thank You, Lord Jesus, that You have forgiven me of all my sins. I ask You to abide in me and give me the desire to always follow You.
You paid the price for all of my sins by dying on the cross. Even the sins of the whole world.
Thank you, Lord Jesus that You loved me and died for me even before I was born and that You still love me now. I love You too.

Thank you, Heavenly Father, that You have called me away from sin and death into the Life everlasting in Your only begotten son, the Lord Jesus Christ.

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. Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. [Holy Ghost, Comforter, Spirit of Truth]

Thank You for saving me heavenly Father. With all my heart, thank you Father for saving me in Jesus’ name, Amen.

Allow us to share the joy of your new birth with heaven. Won’t you? Heaven rejoices over each redeemed sinner. Luke 15:7

In defense of the Masoretic Hebrew of the Old Testament and the GreekTextus Receptus:

The Incomplete and unsealed codices of Sinaiticus and Vaticanus are not translated from the majority texts, [Original Masoretic Hebrew and the Greek Textus Receptus]. Sinaiticus and Vaticanus present variant, ambiguous and erroneous readings rather than that of the well-established and settled texts. They disagree often with one another as well as with the settled majority texts. Thus, an attempt to create a pretext that will continue to justify a never-ending demand for additional editions and interpretations. These unsettled differences and bias in certain sectarian doctrine [dogma] have led to the production of multiple “modern” editions with ambiguities, many variant readings and confusion from the explosion of unending, new editions.
Profit-driven publishers have embraced such an economic windfall to sell a continual flow of “new and better” English edition of The Bible. They give too little attention to the fidelity and accuracy already settled [in heaven] in majority manuscripts of the Masoretic Hebrew and the Greek Textus Receptus.

Psalm 119:89-90
ל Lamed
89 Forever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.
90 Thy faithfulness is unto all generations:
thou hast established the earth, and it abideth. [abides]
God, Himself, providentially protects and preserves His Word. His Word is the God-breathed, self-authenticating, immutable [unchanging and unchangeable], eternal, inerrant, infallible, infinite and all-powerful Word, settled in heaven. He is not the author of confusion.
1 Corinthians 14:33

The Authorized King James Version (AKJV), also known as the Authorized Version (AV), is the authentic English Bible because it is rendered [translated into English] accurately and faithfully from the established majority of the Greek Textus Receptus [received text] manuscripts of the New Testament and the Hebrew Masoretic Text of the Old Testament (The Jewish Tanakh) These manuscripts are providentially protected of God, and always give a greater glory to God when compared to variant readings. The established majority manuscripts avoid doctrinal error, inaccuracies in translation, uninspired editorial notations, variant or ambiguous readings taken from Codices Vaticanus, or Sinaiticus.

The Authorized King James version is unique also in that the requirement of Great Brittan that all King James bibles be printed only by the Cambridge University Press, The Crown’s Authorized Printer. No other [person or publisher] may print, copy or import the King James Bible into Great Brittan by order of the Crown.

Printed Prayer: Printed prayers must not be read or offered as a substitute for personal, fervent, effectual, heart-felt, prayer.

Authentic revelations from God during prayer are always consistent with His revealed Word, the Bible.
Preaching Preparation: When preparing to preach, please send us the text reference that has been chosen if you would like us to send the Spurgeon Sermon addressing the same text.
My Prayer is that You would touch, lift up, encourage and teach all who faithfully minister your Word. Bless all who minister the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The Authorized King James Bible
URL: https://www.biblegateway.com/versions/King-James-Version-KJV-Bible/

The above link is to search for specific words or Scriptures in the King James inerrant and infallible English Version (KJV) because it is providentially protected and preserved by GOD Himself through the only translation into English by faithful brethren from the 5,312 established majority text manuscripts MT from which the New Testament Greek Textus Receptus [received text] was taken and the Hebrew Masoretic Text of the Old Testament (Jewish Tanakh). These manuscripts are providentially protected, and frequently give greater glory to God when compared to variant readings of all modern translations from Modern Critical Texts based on only 55 hand picked inferior Greek manuscripts fabricated from either Westcott and Hort or Nestle and Aland. Both of these Greek textual sources follow an assumption that OLDER IS BETTER. Of course, this assumption is not valid if the older manuscripts contain error.

The established majority manuscripts and the Textus Receptus avoid doctrinal error, and inaccuracies in translation, uninspired editorial notations, variant or ambiguous readings which taken from Codices Vaticanus, or Sinaiticus.
Copyright: The King James Version is distinguished by the requirement of Great Brittan that all King James bibles be printed by the Cambridge University Press, the Crown’s authorized printer. No one other than the Crown’s printer, is allowed print, copy or import the King James Bible into Great Brittan by order of the Crown.

In the United States there is no Copyright protection and the KJV is deemed Public Domain. If a new publication changes at least a 10% of an existing publication a lucrative Copyright can be granted. Therefore the NKJV and many other copyrighted translations. Only the King James Version New Testament is unique from among the over 100 English translations that follow modern textual criticism and only the King James is translated from the superior Greek Textus Receptus as its Primary time tested and self-authenticating Greek text Source.

This video presents the truth for those who seek to learn about and use the providentially protected, preserved and immutable Holy Bible that is both inerrant [without error] and infallible and gives God alone, the utmost praise, and the greatest glory due to HIMSELF. Praise and worship are rightfully insisted upon and commanded in God’s inspired [God-Breathed (Spoken) Word from God himself.
HOLY WORDS that were given by God through the Holy Ghost, word by word, to His Holy Prophets and Apostles comprise all eternal Holy Scripture. (Matthew 5:18)

HOW HAS THE MAJORITY TEXT AND THE TEXTUS RECEPTUS BEEN PROVIDENTIALLY PROTECTED AND PRESERVED?

The inspired, god breathed, immortal words, were uttered, word-by-word, to the holy prophets and apostles who were chosen of God and moved by the holy ghost. These words are protected and preserved in holy scripture and are written word-by-word and are immutable, [unchangeable] without error, and infallible [incapable of making a mistake or being wrong]. and for ever [sic] settled in heaven by God himself in the self authenticating word of god, itself.

The Authorized (King James) Holy Bible.

The complete Inside Story of Westcott and Hort:
Brooke Foss Westcott and Fenton John Anthony Hort (Text only)

URL: https://www.febc.edu.sg/article/def_the_inside_story_of_westcott_and_hort


In 1870, The Anglican Church of England passed a resolution to revise the English Bible. The New Testament revision committee which finally consisted of 25 scholars (though only about 16 eventually attended the meetings) which included Westcott and Hort. The committee worked for ten years in the Jerusalem chamber, and these two scholars swept the Revision Committee along with them after work commenced. In fact, the “Cambridge trio” (Westcott, Hort and Lightfoot) colluded with others to dominate the meetings with their views of the text and to defeat any who opposed them. Their *letters reveal this conspiracy:
* Letters from close relatives are quoted in the Inside Story above
The only voice defending the Textus Receptus was Dr Scrivener, probably the foremost scholar of the day in the manuscripts of the Greek New Testament and the history of the Text. But he was systematically outvoted by the Cambridge trio and outdone by Hort’s powerful debating skill. When the revision was completed, the revision committee had altered the Greek Text in 5,337 places,
thus violating the original rule that had been set for the committee of not altering the Greek Text unless absolutely necessary to do so.
____________________________________

CONCLUSION
In conclusion, let it be said that no matter how good any modern version of the New Testament is in other ways, it is clearly blemished if the work of Westcott and Hort is present in it. The presence of their work means that it is based on a defective text. Those who want to honor the Word of God must not promote the use of any of these versions by the church, not because the content of the version is entirely evil in itself, but because being contented to use a weakened version rather than the existing, preserved, without error unblemished one, dishonors God. If God has preserved for His people a good Greek text of the New Testament for 18 centuries, how dishonoring it would be to Him if His people now chose instead to use versions that are based on defective Greek manuscript created by Westcott & Hort or Nestle & Aland.

Let the biblical story of Nadab and Abihu be a lesson for us all:
And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not. And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD. Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace. And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp. So they went near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp; as Moses had said. And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rend your clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people: but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the LORD hath kindled” (Lev 10:1–6).
