a)  Go and make Disciples. 
b)  Of all Nations.
c)  Baptizing them.
d)  In the Name of:-
1-The Father.
2-The Son.

(This Second one reminds me that New Disciples Need Baptism)
----------
Chris. 
Christ Jesus is the One Who makes the Promises of God a reality to us. God answers Prayer in and through the Name of Christ Jesus. It is necessary for every True Believer to have Christ Jesus at the centre of their lives. It is very clear that God wants us to go and make Disciples of all Nations and He will supply our needs as we do that.

God's Persistent Love!

'God's Persistent Love.'
Jeremiah 7:25.
a)  God shows persistent and caring Love towards His People.
b)  Even from the time that He delivered His People from Egypt. 
c)  God sent ALL His Servants the Prophets to His People.

(This QT reveals God's Persistent Love)
---------
'Merciless People.'
Acts 7:59.
a)  They stoned Stephen.
b)  As he was calling on God. 
c)  The call was:
d)  Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
(This Second one reveals to me Merciless People)
---------
Chris. 
God's Persistent Love is quite amazing. It was amazing in Bible times and still is amazing today. God does not give up, when He shows Love His intention is that people should be able to become acquainted with it, receive it and know it by experience. We should be grateful to God for His Persistent Love.

The Purpose Of The Gospels!

'The Purpose Of The Gospels.'
John 20:31.

b)  So that we may Believe.
c)  That Jesus is the Messiah. 
d)  The Son of God.

(This QT teaches me The Purpose Of The Gospels)

'New Testament Persecution.'
Acts 9:14. 
a)  The 'old' Paul.
b)  Was authorized by the Chief Priests.
c)  To arrest everyone.
d)  Who calls on the Name of the Lord.
(This Second one reminds me to Pray for the Persecuted Church: New Testament Persecution)
-------
Chris. 
If we are to be partakers of the Gift of Life in the Lord we need to Believe in the Gospels. The express reason for the Gospels being written is that we may Believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God. If we Believe, then the Promise of God is very clear. We will have Life by the Power of His Name. Christianity is about Believing in a Person - the Lord Jesus Christ.

True Believers Worship The Lord!

'True Believers Worship The Lord!'
John 9:38.
a)  The man responded with Words of Faith in Jesus.

------
'The Disciples' Response To The Ascension.'

a)  They Worshipped Jesus.
b)  They returned to Jerusalem. (Awaiting what came next)
c)  They were filled with great Joy.
(This Second one shows me The Disciples' Response To The Ascension)
------
Chris.
The Ascension of Jesus was one of the most amazing miracles that these Disciples ever saw. It was like something "totally out of this World". There are three important parts that we read here about the Disciples' response: 1-They Worshipped the Lord. 2-They returned to Jerusalem to await what was going to happen next. 3-They were filled with great Joy.

A Wrong Decision!

'A Wrong Decision.'
Jeremiah 7:24. 
a)  God's People did not obey Him. 
b)  God's People did not incline their ear to Him. 
c)  God's People followed the counsel of their own hearts.

-----
Chris. 
God's People went backward and not forward! This is a common problem amongst God's People and in God's Church. God is calling us to go forward, whether as individuals, teams, families or entire Churches. These are days in which God has facilitated the possibility for the Churches to go forward, we need to follow this Call. 

In Addition!

'In Addition.'
John 20:30.
a)  The Disciples saw Jesus.
b)  Do many other miraculous signs. 
c)  Which are not written in the Bible.
(This QT excites me: In Addition)
----

a)  This is what the Lord says. 
b)  Cursed are those people who put their trust in mere humans.
c)  Who rely on human strength. 
d)  And turn their hearts away from the Lord. 
(Through this Second one I want to Keep My Heart Right)
----
Chris. 
How very important it is for us to keep our heart right. There are so many reasons in today's World that would cause us to lose our heart or to embitter our heart. This is one of the reasons that the Lord calls us to Keep Our Heart Right.

A Glorious Transformation!

'A Glorious Transformation!'

a)  Christ will transform our lowly body.
b)  That it may be conformed.
c)  To His Glorious Body.
d)  According to the Power that enables Him.
e)  To bring everything under His control.
(This QT reveals A Glorious Transformation)
---
'The Angels Worship.'
Hebrews 1:6.
a)  When God brings His First-Born into the World.
b)  He says:
c)  Let all the Angels of God.
d)  Worship Him.
(Through this Second one I can see The Angels Worship)
---
Chris.
The Lord is eventually going to complete the Work of bringing everything under His Control. At this present time we still have lowly and weak bodies. It is Christ, and only Christ, who can transform our lowly and weak bodies to His Glorious Body. This is a Miracle - A Glorious Transformation - the Scriptures tell us that we, True Believers, will be changed.

All Will Be Well!

'All Will Be Well.'
Jeremiah 7:23. 
a)  This is what God told His People.
b)  Obey Me.
c)  I will be your God.
d)  You will be my people.
e)  Do every thing as I say.
f)  All will be well.
(This QT reminds me of God's Plan: All Will Be Well)
-------------------------
'A Practical Solution.'
Genesis 47:23.
a)  Joseph said to the people.
b)  Look, today I have bought you and your land for Pharaoh.
c)  I will provide you with seed.
d)  So you can plant the fields.
(This Second one Teaches me A Practical Solution)
-------------------------
Chris.
God told His Beloved People to do everything that He said to them. As a result of doing this God said to them that everything would be well. I know that God has not changed - He is still speaking to His People today. God wants us (His People) to do everything that He says to us!  God's Will and God's Way is always perfect. Let us follow Him and learn more of His Ways.

A Special Blessing!

'A Special Blessing.'
John 20:29.
a)  These are the Words of the Lord Jesus.

i)  Those who continue in evil. 
j)  Will rise to experience Judgment.
(This Second one reminds me that The Time Is Coming)
------------------------
Chris.
I am among those people, as the vast majority of True Believers who on the Earth today are, that have never seen the Lord. I have heard His Word, I have Believed His Word and I know that, exclusively, He alone is the Living God, but, I have never seen Him. I think that my situation is in accordance with His Word. We Believe in the Lord, but, as yet, we have not seen Him. 

Good And Humble People!

'Good And Humble People.'
Romans 15:14.
a)  Other people are confident in them.

c)  A branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine.
d)  We cannot bear fruit unless we abide in Lord Jesus Christ. 
e)  The Lord is the Vine.
f)  We are the branches. 
g) If we abide in Christ.
h)  And if Christ abides in us. 
i)  We bear much fruit. 
j)  Without Christ we can do nothing.
(This Second one reminds me to Be Fruitful)
-----------------------
Chris. 
Good and humble people can have a great influence just by being where they are. If our family is well trained, then surely the family members will be good and humble. This kind of family has a shining testimony. If Christian Ministers are good and humble, it makes the situation much easier for people to trust them and trust the Church. In every sphere of life we need to have good and humble people. 

God Did Not Say!

'God Did Not Say.'
Jeremiah 7:21-22. 
a)  This is what the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel says:
b)  Add your burnt offerings to your other sacrifices. 
c)  Eat meat. 
d)  When I brought your ancestors out of Egypt. 
e)  I did not speak with them.
f)  I did not command them. 
g)  Concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices. 
(This QT teaches me what God Did Not Say)
----------------------------
'They Have Eternal Life.'
John 5:25. 
a)  These are the Words of Jesus Christ our Lord:
b)  I assure you.
c)  An hour is coming. 
d)  And is now here.
e)  When the dead people will hear the Voice of the Son of God.
f)  Those who hear will live. 
(This Second one reminds me that They Have Eternal Life)
----------------------------
Chris. 
God clearly knows what He says and what He does not say to people. Here He is saying that when He brought the Jewish Ancestors out of Egypt He did not speak with them about burnt offerings and sacrifices. We need to focus on the important things that God says in His Word and to us, by His Word and His Spirit today. It is the Holy Spirit that makes the Word of God alive to us today. 

Thomas' Understanding Of Jesus!

'Thomas' Understanding Of Jesus.'
John 20:28. 
a)  This understanding came after Jesus revealed His wounds to Thomas. 
b)  Thomas then said these words to Jesus:
c)  My Lord.
d)  My God. 
(This QT encourages me: Thomas' Understanding Of Jesus)
---------------------------
'Life Giving God.'
John 5:21. 
a)  The Father raises the dead. 
b)  And gives Life to them. 
c)  The Son gives Life.
d)  To whom He will.
(This Second one reminds me that we have a Life Giving God)
---------------------------
Chris. 
One of the many purposes that God has for us in and from His Word is encouragement. There are so many reasons that people get discouraged and frustrated. Discouragement and frustration are not Gifts from God! When we look at the lives of the Disciples of Jesus in the Bible there are so many different examples of Jesus encouraging them. 

The God Of Hope!

'The God Of Hope.'
Romans 15:13. 
a)  May the God of Hope. 
b)  Fill you with all Joy and Peace.
c)  Because you trust in Him. 
d)  Then you will overflow with confident Hope.

g)  But God raised Him from the dead. 
h)  This man stood before Peter's trial. 
i)  In a healed condition.
(This Second one teaches me that He Was Miraculously Healed)
--------------------------
Chris.
There are many ways in which the Power of the Holy Spirit can affect our lives. The Holy Spirit in Scripture is often depicted as 'flowing' or 'overflowing'. One of the effects of the Holy Spirit upon the True Believer is that the Holy Spirit can cause us to overflow with confident Hope. 

All Were Affected!

'All Were Affected.'
Jeremiah 7:20. 
a)  These were the Words of the Lord Himself:
b)  My Anger and My Wrath. 
c)  Will be poured out on this place. 
d)  On:-
1-Man.
2-Beast. 
3-Trees of the field. 
4-Crops of the land. 
e)  It will burn and not be quenched. 
(This QT teaches me that All Were Affected by God's Judgment on the land)
-------------------------
'We Should Not Be Surprised.'
Acts 3:12. 
a)  The Jewish worshippers, going to and from the Temple were surprised at God's Miracle. 
b)  Peter challenged them:
c)  "Why does this surprise you?"
d)  "Why do you stare at us?"
e)  "It is not our own power or godliness that made this man walk".
(This Second one reminds me that We Should Not Be Surprised when God does a Miracle)
-------------------------
Chris. 
God has done a very wonderful thing in His Creation of human beings. There are clear Words in His Word about the Wonders of His Creation. The Bible is full of God's Promised Blessings for His People, Blessings that come our way because of His Love and Grace. There are times that we may not understand what God says or does but we should continue to Trust Him and continue to Believe His Word.

Believe!

'Believe.'
John 20:27.
a)  Jesus was speaking to "doubting" Thomas. 
b)  Jesus told Thomas to do certain things:
1-Put your finger here. 
2-Examine My Hands. 
3-Reach your hand here.
4-Put it into My Side.
c)  Do not continue in your unbelief.
d)  But Believe.
(This QT encourages me to Believe)
------------------------
'The Wonderful Son Of God.'
Hebrews 1:3. 
a)  The Son reflects the Glory of God.
b)  The Son bears the very stamp of God's Nature. 
c)  The Son upholds the Universe by the Word of His Power.
d)  The Son has accomplished cleansing for sins. 
e)  The Son is now sat down at the Right Hand of the Majesty on High.
(Through this Second one I extol The Wonderful Son Of God)
------------------------
Chris. 
This is very amazing. Jesus told Thomas to put his hand into the wound area of His Body, He did this to prove to Thomas Who He Was. I can understand this action. My own maternal grandfather had a war wound that went long and deep into his leg. When I was a child he asked me to put my hand into this wound and then he told me a true war story.

Right With God!

'Right With God.'
Romans 5:1. 
a)  We have been made right with God. 
b)  Because of our Faith. 
c)  We have been Justified by Faith.

a)  God told Apostle Paul. 
b)  To make clear to everyone. 
c)  How the Mystery came about. 
d)  In times past. 
e)  It was kept hidden in the Mind of God. 
f)  Who Created all things through Jesus Christ. 
(This Second one teaches me that The Mystery Came About)
-----------------------
Chris. 
Through, and because of our Lord Jesus Christ, we have Peace with God. Peace with God is different from the Peace of God. The Peace of God guards our heart and our mind through Jesus Christ. Peace with God is referring to our conscience, which is made clear and clean when we know that Christ has dealt with our sins. 

Not Me But Themselves!

'Not Me But Themselves.'
Jeremiah 7:19.
a)  The idolaters were not really provoking the Lord. 
b)  This was the Lord's declaration. 
c)  The reality was. 
d)  That they were being provoked. 
e)  To their own shame.
(This QT clearly reveals the declaration of the Lord: Not Me But Themselves)
------------------------
'The Selfless Suffering Of Christ.'

1-Source of their Salvation.
2-Pioneer of their Salvation. 
3-Leader of their Salvation.
f)  Perfect through sufferings.
(This Second one reminds me of The Selfless Suffering Of Christ)
------------------------
Chris. 
The reality was, and is, that idolaters do not provoke the Lord to shame. The idolaters simply bring the shame on themselves. There are different times and seasons of the year when millions of people ignorantly, and yet willfully, commit the sin of idolatry. Of course God does not hate these people, He loves them and desires that they would come out of their spiritual blindness and come to Him through Jesus Christ.

Jesus Does Not Need Doors!

'Jesus Does Not Need Doors.'
John 20:26.

a)  The Mountains may depart. 
b)  The Hills be removed. 
c)  The Lord's steadfast Love shall not depart from you. 
d)  The Lord's Covenant of Peace shall not be removed. 
e)  Says the Lord Who has Compassion and Mercy upon you.
(This Second one tells me of Miracles Of The Lord's Compassion)
-----------------------
Chris. 
Jesus came and stood among them! This is now the Resurrected Jesus! He did not appear as a "spirit" - this was Jesus in the flesh, proving again the Miracle of the Resurrection. This occurred before the Miracle of the Ascension, when Jesus returned to His Father in Heaven. The Resurrected Jesus spoke to His Disciples Words that were both significant and important, for them then, and for us now. It is good for us to ponder on the Amazing Words and Acts of the Resurrected Jesus.

Jesus' Selection Process!

a)  God answered Moses that He would be with him.
b)  God promised Moses a sign. 
c)  God told Moses that He would lead God's People. 
d)  Moses would bring them out of Egypt. 
e)  They would Worship at this very same place, the same mountain. 
(This Second one promises A Wonderful Sign)
----------------------
Chris. 
Jesus sent His Disciples out to preach. There were a few significant things about these Preacher - Disciples. Jesus first called them to Himself. He wanted to spend time with them on the mountainside. He appointed twelve of them to be with Him, in His Ministry Team. These twelve He also sent out to Preach. 

We Should See Too!

'We Should See Too.'

a)  God sees.

e)  God was angry. 
f)  Everywhere:-
1-Children were gathering the wood. 
2-Fathers built sacrificial fires. 
3-Mothers were kneading dough and making cakes.
g)  All this was to offer to the "queen of heaven".
h)  They pour out drink offerings to other gods.
i)  They were provoking the Living God. 
(This QT reminds me that I need to see as God sees, and pray: We Should See Too)
------
'An Abundance Of Living Water.'
Zechariah 14:8. 
a)  On that day. 
b)  Life-giving waters. 
c)  Will flow out from Jerusalem. 
d)  Half towards the Red Sea.
e)  Half towards the Mediterranean Sea.
f)  Flowing continuously.

(This Second one gives me thirst for An Abundance Of Living Water {The Holy Spirit})
------
 Chris. 
Everywhere in God's Holy Land, amongst God's Holy People, entire families had given themselves to the worship of idols. This idolatry was very blatant and a complete "turning away" from the Lord. These people needed to stop what they were doing and turn back to the Lord. We need to ask ourselves and our Churches if this Message is also relevant for us today.
