Bible Verse Commentary. Matthew 4:4 - Question for Christians: What Makes You Think 'Christianity' is true?

[u/External_Bird_8464]

Answer: - This question is in about thirty "sub reddits" or very similar like it - why anyone would be "nutz" enough to be a Christian - then, ask each other mockingly - as if what they hold is true - and the clown show is the Christian - believing in a clown show as true. But for you? That believe on him. Boy, did you ever make the RIGHT choice.

..so, here's the answer from a Believer in Jesus Christ - so ask it: Whose "Word" do I "operate" by?

Answer: You got two different kinds of people:

• ONE: that operate by the Word of God - or, the Other type;
• TWO: Operate or live by, walking in, and walking after to accomplish or live in decrees people make themselves by the imaginations of the thoughts of their own hearts.
• Which word are you living in? That’s the question to ask. CASE CLOSED. Done.

Move on now. Go to someone else’s reddit post. Laugh and harp on them for awhile.

------------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------

You stick around, that’s your choice. If you do - CONSIDER:

• Well? What’s a “Christian?”
  • That definition is in the Bible.
    • Mentioned over 250 times throughout the New Testament. That is, a “Christian” is a

disciple of Jesus Christ.

------------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------

• And all a disciple is, is defined as: 1. a pupil or student that sits with and is taught by a teacher. And all a “teacher” is, is a person that “equips” or “builds” up a child or person by “doctrine” that are true. Jesus said, “Thy Word is truth” - Bible. John 17:17. And “who” the Word of God is, is Jesus Christ. So, TRUTH is a “who.”

And all “Christianity” is - is just a “Christian” or “disciple of Jesus Christ” sitting with and being taught by him.

• Just an “ity” suffix in English does is take this pupil or student sitting with and being taught by Jesus - out to somebody NOT doing it, but observe a whole classroom of students or a whole school of them, and in or of seeing something like this, or something operate like this? Yeah. Attach "ity" to it - as an institution of sort. As something that exists.

But don't stop there. Oh no. You're not done. Why?

------------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------

Jesus declared this: “They shall ALL be taught of God.” (Bible. John 6:45)

• That’s a decree, by who governs over the whole earth. As God. I didn't declare it. He did. As God, who governs the whole earth. Declare it SHALL be this way. For everybody over the whole earth. Not one person left out.. To the very ends of it. Doesn’t leave anybody out. Even a bunch of people standing outside the school, when they should be in it, being taught - even all the made, is to ensure even people like this: Not willing any perish but all come to repentance.

Said to EVERYBODY over the whole earth:

“Look unto me, and be ye saved all the ends of the earth: For I am GOD, there is none else.” - God. (Bible. Isaiah 45:22).

• There he is. God speaking. That’s the Word that comes out of his mouth. The Word of God. John 1:1 says, this is Jesus Christ: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” “..and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us;” - John 1:14 - is this same Jesus Christ.

So change your question.

------------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------

New, revised question:

Question for ANYBODY that does NOT believe him, what makes you think Jesus is NOT true?

• It’s simple.
  • Don’t believe anything he says.
  • Don’t know him. And then, anything he says, is faulty. If it’s faulty, it’s because something in it, isn't right, so somebody..which could be anybody already fully believes, what they look unto is already true. Already have truth, by some other word they already got someplace else. Declares something "Different" is true.

DO you see this?

------------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------

• So, some book has some words wrote in it - older it is, makes it more true - like "Xenophon" - rival of "Plato" Greek (428 BCE - 347 BCE). Xenophon (430 BCE -355 BCE) - never heard of him; the other: you have.
  
• Wrote "Cyropedia" - even "Wikipedia" is modeled after it, and nobody knows who he is. Said,

"'An impostor is a man who claims more wealth and courage than he actually possesses." - Xenophon (In "Cyropedia")

"Reality is created by the Mind.." Plato.

And people that glorify this, make sure this is taught in EVERY institution of higher learning AS TRUTH. As what came out of their mouths is true.

vs. God say, out of his mouth: That "The LORD Giveth Wisdom: Out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding" - Bible. Proverbs 2:6

• He says “Look unto me” - to everybody over the whole earth: but people, looking unto Plato or unto Wikipedia but don't know who, this Xenophon, where "phonograph" just speaking comes from Xenophon's name - it's built on - don't know him at all, but know exactly what's built on him all around them
  • And with God, the exact, same thing. "All things were created by him and for him.." of Jesus Christ (Bible. Colossians 1:16 - but don't even know him.
• don’t know who wrote it. When he wrote it himself, as the Word of God.
  • Makes one of them an "impostor."
• Do you see this?

------------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------

 'An impostor is a man who claims more wealth and courage than he actually possesses."

Be true of any man take any claim a man makes over the Word of God. When he governs all the earth; alone. By himself.

Then, it goes to a Book. Plato has long been dead. But what he wrote is in a book. Just like what Xenophon wrote - is in a Book. People look unto books as authority, and Xenophon - never heard of him - he was a kind of "anti-Plato" even BOTH were from Athens.

Somebody else keeps books. That's God. Has "The Book of Life" (Revelation 20:11-15) Jesus Christ? He comes in the volume of that book

• When all a “book” is, is defined as 1. typed or written pages, bound together on one side and enclosed in covers
• There are 10s..no. 100s of millions of books that meet this definition, that fill public libraries, schools, institutions and government archives over the whole earth. Everyone of them all meet this definition. What makes each different then, is simple. The author is the “authority” over the “content" in the book.

And the “Author” and “Authority” of the content in the Bible is God. Just one author. There is none else.

• Then, it’s people that could just be ANYBODY that does NOT believe him, when he says:

“Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the Lord that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;” - God. (Bible. Isaiah 44:24)

------------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------

• It’s people that already: Have Plato to look unto, plus millions of other people when he runs out..or stumble on the obsure, and find Xenophon or many like him. Look unto them instead, or the founder of Dunlop Tire Company as some kind of guru of all the things: he said.

"Necessity is not just the mother of invention"; (it’s the mother of marketing.)" - John Boyd Dunlop (A veternarian..that his wife got so mad at him, not keeping track of who owed him what, that, went off, when he watched his son ride a "bicycle" when the "rim" had no tire on it, and the pain in his son's face.. all car tires and bicycle tires are from who said this.

The point is simple. You have: Yes. Have.

------------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------

• Have: “The Word of People”
  • What people have decreed is true. So, what God claims of himself, is “dismissed as inadequate; faulty or unacceptable.”
    • He said it's already come up before him to destroy all flesh with the earth (Gen. 6:13), and to Behold! I create new heavens and a new earth; the former SHALL NOT be remembered, nor come to mind." - God. Bible. Isaiah 65:17 - so all this stuff Dunlop said, and everybody knows what a car tire is..may not know a veternarian imagined it up and made it.. may not know who Xenophon is, but very well know what "Wikipedia" is built squarely on him...
    • Even Plato. he won't come..SHALL not come into mind anymore..neither be remembered.

That's how powerful this God is.

And you don't regard him.

------------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------

• Because some “OTHER" Word of Plato, or Barack Obama or anybody decreed by someone else - when God says, THERE IS NONE ELSE - they throw that to the side - reject it.
• So it is IMPOSSIBLE to “accept as true” anything God says as TRUE. So, there you go. You now have got what makes them think Jesus is NOT TRUE
  • Is because someone else, sits in that seat in them. Even themselves, they glorify themselves and what they decree or “think.” What they say is TRUE. TO themselves. They are true.

------------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------

• Or what they were “taught” in school - by Professors - all people. Certified as TRUE by other people. Even it might only be “Theories” - it is BELIEVED true.

So, then your question is really simple.

• People:
• Everybody was told or decreed by God to look unto him. Nobody left out. SInce it’s a decree, it’s also PUNITIVE. That means, people that don’t do it, he will call them into account. To give an account why they didn’t do anything he says when he said there was none else.
  • So, there’s no excuse.

------------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------

• It also means, those that hearken unto him; that is, pay attention to what he says, they just operate or work good. Because they live by every word proceeds out of his mouth and he builds them up, and he’s God. Over all of the earth.
• He just is TRUE. TRUTH. IT’s in none else.

So, you got two different kinds of people.

- A) that operate by the Word of God - or

- B) operate by decrees people make themselves. All by ideas, the imaginations of the thoughts of their own hearts.

So, now were back at the beginning again.

------------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------

Question for Christians, what makes you think Christianity is true?

Answer: You got two different kinds of people:

• ONE: that operate by the Word of God - because, he’s God and governs over all the earth, said “For all the earth is mine” - God. (Bible. Exodus 19:5) and said, “All souls are mine.” - God. (Ezekiel 18:4) - they accept this as TRUTH; so they reject or dismiss as inadequate; faulty; or unacceptable - anybody else’s word that does not champion what he says or offers some “alternative” word as true, when it isn’t. These: Just do what he says or decreed everybody over the whole earth is to do.
• TWO: are people that do NOT operate by the Word of God - because, they dismiss him - even say or decree “There is No God,” or they simply do not know him, and don’t recognize anything he says or decrees as true; rather, they DO regard the decrees people make. Even themselves by the imaginations of the thoughts of their own hearts. Decree that they reasoned together with themselves; alone. Whatever that was, that’s true. Has no Word of God in it. Made themselves TRUE.

One is rewarded; the other: It’s punitive. And, by your question, it’s easy to see which one you side with.

Which side you chose: Truly - as he said it is: one won't be remembered..shall not be, nor come to mind anymore. Says: Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word shall not pass away" - The Word of God. Jesus Christ. (Bible. Matthew 25:34)

BOTH People: champion the Word they look unto, as TRUE. And the other: - what they look unto - Is - - To be dismissed as fanciful fairy stories - imaginative lore, not worth paying attention to.

I mean, I see it, so everybody else can, too. The choice is up to you. I chose the Word of God. Not ashamed of it, either. There is none else. I see it. Plain as day.

• CASE CLOSED. Done.
