The John 4:14 Wellspring The Purest Water is At The Head of The Wellspring
John 4:14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. (KJV)
A well of water springing up to Eternal Life is His promise to us that drink of Him. If that well is the source within you, it has become a resource that not only you, but others will draw from.
That water is fresh; it is truth; it is the only way to life; it is not polluted. By it we are constantly being taught by God’s Holy Spirit. It flows in and out of us again and again, and into others. Jesus is the only way to this well. He is the only way to keep this well spring pure, what we believe concerning Him must come only from that well, if we drink from another well we become confused with polluted thought, and we can become sick and eventually die if we insist on continuing to drink of other polluted water.
The Holy Spirit is the only source of the life giving water in Christ, so how else other than also drinking from a polluted well does the body explain the impurity in its message? How else can this one body possess many competing doctrines?
That well within you is a Holy Fountain pouring out His word into you. His is a pure word. The water from the Spirit that overflows from you to others that they too may draw life from — is it drawn from God’s Holy Spirit teaching you the word? — or is it drawn from man’s word?
So the Spirit within us is the source of life, and it is He who teaches us in the way of life. He sows into us the word of life. Through prayer and study He leads us into His truth of life. All He asks is that we have eyes to see, ears to hear, and faith as a mustard seed, to believe. The Spirit is our teacher, the Bible is our text book. Every message of man should either stand or fall as it is compared to His word.
1 Corinthians 2:10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
1 Corinthians 2:11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
1 Corinthians 2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
1 Corinthians 2:13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
1 Corinthians 2:15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. (KJV)
God bless you as you study His word in the power of His Spirit.
The purest water is always at the head of the wellspring.
Exactly and this water is gluten free….

9:24-26, what does this mean for prophesied future sacrifices in the O.T.?

I dealt with an understanding atonement in the blog called Shadows. Hebrews 9:24-26 must include the next two verses and really from Hebrews chapter 7 onward. There is so very much to say about this. I spoke on it in my book. People have blatantly false ideas on this topic because they take what translations are saying. The word Testament and all its morphological forms needs to be stricken from the English translations. The word μετάθεσις in Hebrews 7:12 should NOT be translated as ‘change’ for it contradicts what the LORD told Moshe. Hear me. God did not lie to Moshe. HE meant what HE said to Moshe and Aaron. Whenever GOD said something was eternal He meant it. The foundation for Messiah’s atonement was for the same reason He commanded Moshe and Aaron to act as they did. The Korbanot point to the authority of Messiah no matter what ‘time’ they occur. God said what He said for a reason. What He told Moshe does not contradict what He did with the advent of Messiah. They are compatible not contradictions. The goal has not changed. There are 2 priesthoods, there was never just one. The Heavenly state and the earthly state and not different. When God wanted things done on earth as they are in Heaven He meant it. Things are done that way. Yeshua entered the Heavenly Tabernacle and did what Aaron was commanded to do. Because of who we are and who GOD is. To explain μετάθεσις . A + M= G and M+ A = G or G= A + M are not 3 different equations. It is a how μετάθεσις is expressed. Because I wrote these three equations at separate and sequential times does not mean they contradict each other. The results are the same. GOD did not make a mistake in His math. G = goal; A = Aaronic; M =Malchi Tzedek. What God had intended with all the revealing has the goal of our atonement and His Glory.

Dear jloose1960, you seem to have wisdom almost beyond my comprehension. I love reading what you have written to Jerry. You are new to me. What book did you write and what is your blog? I don’t get on very much as Jerry can attest to. I have attempted to study more in the Hebrew and Greek of our scriptures as we know any English translation is going to be lacking. Thank you for suddenly appearing in this. You are a fascinating person. Thank you for the insights that you seem to be giving. God bless you.

Thanks, Jerry. I could tell. He seems very wise. Although you do also. God bless you, Jerry, as it seems you are always blessing me in one way or another. I hope I get to read his site sometime. By the way, happy Passover, as the word Easter comes from a German word I think if I remember correctly.

Yes, I know and I have so much I want to say. I just have not had time. It seems the longer days, warmer weather, still doesn’t cover all the things I would like to get done. The only thing I try never to leave out is the study of God’s word. The last time I was on I spent sometime on your blog. Right now I am reading some of your friend Jon’s blogs. Very interesting. We have tried to study more of the Hebrew words that have been translated to English. There is so much that can’t be or has been mistranslated (not necessarily wrong) as far as I have learned thus far. Although, I am enjoying the one I just started on atonement. We will see if there are some that are wrong. I will try to post soon. I guess I say too much sometimes. I lose some of my followers. Although, I am not on here to be liked, I am on here to be truthful. God bless you brother. I enjoy reading your blog very much.
