----------------------THE WITHOUTS---------------------------------
+ Without the shedding of blood
there is no remission of sin-Hebrews 9:22-God has put a limitation on man that man has been trying to go around for centuries. Man cannot get his sin cleansed without the shedding of blood. God demanded a sacrifice for sin, and today, that sacrifice is the Lamb of God slain from the foundation of the world. Acts 2:38 is the ONLY NT command that tells how to remit sin.
+ Without faith
it is impossible to please God-Hebrews 11:6-man cannot operate in the natural realm to please God, but must move into the supernatural realm of faith. Faith is not seeing but still believing. It is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen.
+ Without holiness
no man shall see the Lord-Hebrews 12:14-this is a seldom used scripture in our today's easy believes church world, but God demands us to live Holy for He is holy. We must not conform to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of our minds?Romans 12:1-2
+ Faith without works
is dead being alone-James 2:26- expression of faith put into action. James says, show me your faith without works and I will show you my faith by my works. The faith that saves is faith that manifests itself via actions.
+ Without love
you are nothing-I Corinthians 13:2-you can give your money away, you can give your body to be burned, you can have faith to move mountains, but if you don't possess love, you are nothing. Faith - hope - love, these abide (they are the constants in a Christian's life -- regardless of situations).
+ Without me (Jesus Christ)
you can do nothing-- John 15:5--- Nothing we do is for self promotion, nothing we accomplish is for our personal benefit. It is all to the glory of Jesus Christ, He is the vine, we are the branches. I like Paul's attitude, he states in I Corinthians 3:6-7--that one plants, another waters, but God gives the increase, the next verse is classic--it says, he that plants is nothing, he that waters is nothing, but God who gives the increase. No flesh will glory in his presence. "With" God all things are possible!
Laodecia was "without" with all their "withs." Can we not see that our nakedness doth appear even though we have abundance? EYE SALVE is the need of the hour -- that we may see what we lack rather than what we think we have!
