Blessings received, blessings lost, blessings never given. Far too many who follow Christ still place the subtitles, so to speak, ahead of the way to receive blessings from the Lord. Love the Lord and your neighbor, be compassionate and caring towards others, do good to those you meet, be kind and considerate, helpful in whatever way you can. External actions, which in all truthfulness, even sinners, the unrepentant do in their own way, for their god requires works before he will give the blessing. For those who truly are hid in Christ, there is only one way to receive blessings from the Almighty. Obedience. “If ye love me, keep my commandments.” (John 14:15) To lose a blessing, one must first have received the blessing. The nation of Isreal is the prime example of this truth. From their beginning in Abraham, even unto today, deviations from the commandments of the Living

“So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.” (Rev. 3:16) “I can take Him or leave Him, apathetic might be an appropriate word I suppose. I don’t think He really cares that much if we serve Him, as they say, or not, as long as we love Him, as long as we apply that golden rule in our life. It’s not like He wants us to be puppets on a string you know, we’ve got lives to live. I’m pretty sure God exists, it’s just that I don’t think He wants us to just focus on Him all the time. I’ve been good, and if I need Him, I know He’s there for me.” I understand lukewarm people, they’re the ones I meet the most, almost all of them in some way fulfill 2nd Timothy 3:5. “Having a form

“And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) No one can say with any certainty exactly what the second death is, what is best described as eternal death. We know that there is wailing and gnashing of teeth, that the worm does not die there, but if that means literal worms, such as those that people use to go fishing with or something similar, or if the people there are called worms. “But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.” (Psalm 22:6) We know those there are in torments, physically and mentally suffering, but I know that no one is actually there yet, for all that die in their sins are today in hell, not the Lake of Fire. And I know this, that there

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” (1st John 4:1) If I have done just that to the fullest capabilities that I have been blessed with, tested that person, and fully believed they also, as I am, are hid in Christ and then I perform a task for their benefit, there is a blessing of some form in that. Yet what if that which I have given to them, whether it be an act of compassion, a deed that assisted them in some way, or a materialistic item that would help them in some manner, and then they abuse that gift somehow? Going completely against what they promised, or against the intent of the gift? “Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.” (Matt.
