men for my name's sake. {18} But there shall not an hair of your head
perish."

heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying,
I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.
{9} But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified:
for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and
by. {10} Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom
against kingdom: {11} And great earthquakes shall be in divers places,
and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great
signs shall there be from heaven. {12} But before all these, they
shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you
up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and
rulers for my name's sake. {13} And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
{14} Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what
ye shall answer: {15} For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all
your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. {16} And ye
shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and
friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. {17} And ye
shall be hated of all men for my name's sake. {18} But there shall not
an hair of your head perish. {19} In your patience possess ye your souls.
{20} And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know
that the desolation thereof is nigh. {21} Then let them which are in
Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it
depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
{22} For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are
written may be fulfilled. {23} But woe unto them that are with child,
and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great
distress in the land, and wrath upon this people. {24} And they
shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into
all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until
the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. {25} And there shall be signs in
the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the
earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the
waves roaring; {26} Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for
looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers
of heaven shall be shaken. {27} And then shall they see the Son of man
coming in a cloud with power and great glory. {28} And when these things
begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for
your redemption draweth nigh. {29} And he spake to them a parable; Behold
the fig tree, and all the trees; {30} When they now shoot forth, ye see and
know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand. {31} So likewise ye, when
ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is
nigh at hand. {32} Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass
away, till all be fulfilled. {33} Heaven and earth shall pass
away: but my words shall not pass away. {34} And take heed to
yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and
drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
{35} For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the
whole earth. {36} Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted
worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before
the Son of man."
(22) {Luke 22:10-11} "And he said
unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet
you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where
he entereth in. {11} And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house,
The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I
shall eat the passover with my disciples?"
(23) {Luke 22:15} "And he said unto
them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I
suffer:"
(24) {Luke 22:32} "But I have
prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted,
strengthen thy brethren."
(25) {Luke 22:34} "And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the
cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that
thou knowest me."
(26) {Luke 22:67} "Art thou the
Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye
will not believe:"
(27) {Luke 23:28-31} "But Jesus
turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for
yourselves, and for your children. {29} For, behold, the days are coming,
in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the
wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck. {30} Then
shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the
hills, Cover us."
(29) {Luke 23:43} "And Jesus said
unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise."
(30) {Luke 24:7} "Saying, The
Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be
crucified, and the third day rise again."
(31) {Luke 24:49} "And, behold, I
send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of
Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high."

Many shall rejoice at his birth: Because she was aged and the Lord allowed
her to have a baby.
Shall drink neither wine nor strong
drink: He was a Nazarite who is dedicated to the
Lord for ministry and does not cut his hair

MISC: GIVEN THE HOLY SPIRIT {LUKE 1:15 – 24:49}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) For he
shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor
strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from
his mother's womb. {Luke 1:15}
(2) And it came to pass,
that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her
womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost: {Luke 1:41}
(3) And his father
Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying, {Luke
1:67}
(4) And, behold, there was
a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was
just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy
Ghost was upon him. {26} And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost,
that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.
{27} And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents
brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law, {Luke
2:25-27}
(5) And Jesus being
full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit
into the wilderness, {14} And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit
into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round
about. {18} The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath
anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal
the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering
of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, {Luke 4:1, 14, 18}
(6) If ye then, being
evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more
shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
{Luke 11:13}
(7) For the Holy Ghost
shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say. {Luke 12:12}

ye be endued with power from on high. {Luke 24:49}

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION/ANSWER: Does John having been
filled with the Holy Ghost in the womb mean he is saved before birth? Does this imply election and predestination
by God? {Luke 1:15/41}
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
John shall drink neither wine nor strong
drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb
{Luke 1:15}
Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary,
the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost {Luke
1:41}
Clearly, John in Elizabeth’s womb
responded to Jesus presents in Mary’s womb. The Holy Spirit had something to do
with that. God chose John for a special
ministry. John was not perfect, but
Jesus words give him a high grade which I believe means he is saved.
Now to Predestination: First from a Google search
From Easton Dictionary:
This word is properly used only with
reference to God's plan or purpose of salvation. The Greek word rendered
"predestinate" is found only in these six passages,
This doctrine of predestination or
election is beset with many difficulties. It belongs to the "secret
things" of God. But if we take the revealed word of God as our guide, we
must accept this doctrine with all its mysteriousness, and settle all our
questionings in the humble, devout acknowledgment, "Even so, Father: for
so it seemed good in thy sight."
For the teaching of Scripture on this
subject let the following passages be examined in addition to those referred to
above; Gen. 21:12; Ex. 9:16; 33:19; Deut. 10:15; 32:8; Josh. 11:20;
Hodge has well remarked that,
"rightly understood, this doctrine (1) exalts the majesty and absolute
sovereignty of God, while it illustrates the riches of his free grace and his
just displeasure with sin. (2.) It enforces upon us the essential truth that
salvation is entirely of grace. That no one can either complain if passed over,
or boast himself if saved. (3.) It brings the inquirer to absolute self-despair
and the cordial embrace of the free offer of Christ. (4.) In the case of the
believer who has the witness in himself, this doctrine at once deepens his
humility and elevates his confidence to the full assurance of hope"
(Outlines).
From WordNet hyperDictionary:
From my beliefs referring to the paper:
How to handle related scriptures:
THE PROBLEM IS WE DO NOT KNOW IF WE ARE
ELECTED. THE CHRISTIAN MUST DO
EVERYTHING HE CAN AS A CHRISITAN AND KNOW HIS FAITH IN JESUS RIGHTEOUSNESS
(WORKS) ARE IMPUTED TO HIM. HE HAS NO
RIGHTEOUSNESS OF HIS OWN. GRACE IS GOD
GIVEN JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER GIFT FROM GOD.

MISC: JOHN THE BAPTIST {LUKE 1:15 – 9:19}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1)
John the Baptist was filled with the Holy Ghost from his mother’s womb
{Luke 1:15}
(2)
The word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness
{Luke 3:2}
(3)
John came preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins
{Luke 3:3}
(4)
John said to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation
of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? {Luke
3:7}
(5)
The people asked him, saying, What shall we do then? {Luke 3:10}
(6)
Publicans came to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what
shall we do? {Luke 3:12}
(7)
Soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do?
{Luke 3:14}
(8)
All men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ,
or not {Luke 3:15}
(9)
John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with
water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I
am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with
fire {Luke 3:16}
(10)
Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison {Luke 3:20}
(11)
And they said unto him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make
prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but
thine eat and drink? {Luke 5:33}
(12)
And the disciples of John showed him of all these things. {Luke 7:18}
(13)
And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to
Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for
another? {Luke 7:19}
(14)
When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath sent us unto
thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for
another? {Luke 7:20}
(15)
Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what
things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame
walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are
raised, to the poor the gospel is preached. {Luke 7:22}
(16)
And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak unto
the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness for to
see? A reed shaken with the wind? {Luke 7:24}
(17)
For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a
greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the
kingdom of God is greater than he. {Luke 7:28}
(18)
For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye
say, He hath a devil. {Luke 7:33}
(19)
They answering said, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias;
and others say, that one of the old prophets is risen
again. {Luke 9:19}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION/ANSWER: What was important about John not drinking wine etc? {Luke 1:15}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Nazarite is only found in the Old
Testament. He is dedicated by a vow to
a ministry of separation unto God. He
remains clean, does not cut his hair, and does not drink wine.
John is the last Old Testament
Prophet.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION/ANSWER: Why were John, his father Zacharias, and his mother Elisabeth filled
with the Holy Ghost? {Luke 1:15/41/67}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Holy Spirit outpouring was mainly
limited to prophecies in the Old Testament.
These people are still under the Old Testament guidelines and used the
gift of God’s Spirit to prophesy.

WHERE: Mary’s announcement of birth of Jesus in city of Galilee named
Nazareth
To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LIST: MARY {LUKE 1:27 – 2:34}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) To a virgin espoused to a man
whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's
name was Mary {Luke 1:27}
(2) And the angel came in unto her, and
said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the
Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women {Luke
1:28}
(3) And the angel said unto her,
Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God {Luke
1:30}
(4) And, behold, thou shalt conceive
in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS
{Luke 1:31}
(5) Then said Mary unto the angel,
How shall this be, seeing I know not a man {Luke 1:34}
(6) And the angel answered and
said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of
the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which
shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God {Luke 1:35}
(7) And Mary said, Behold the
handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the
angel departed from her {Luke 1:38}
(8) And Mary arose in those days,
and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda {Luke
1:39}
(9) And it came to pass, that, when
Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb;
and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost {Luke 1:41}
(10) And she spake out with a loud
voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed
is the fruit of thy womb {Luke 1:42}
(11) And whence is this to me,
that the mother of my Lord should come to me? {Luke 1:43}
(12) For, lo, as soon as the voice of
thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy
{Luke 1:44}
(13) And Mary said, My soul
doth magnify the Lord {Luke 1:46}
(14) And my spirit hath rejoiced in
God my Saviour {Luke 1:47}
(15) For he hath regarded the low
estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations
shall call me blessed {Luke 1:48}
(16) And Mary abode with her about
three months, and returned to her own house {Luke 1:56}
(17) To be taxed with Mary his
espoused wife, being great with child {Luke 2:5}
(18) And they came with haste, and
found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger
{Luke 2:16}
(19) But Mary kept all these things,
and pondered them in her heart {Luke 2:19}
(20) And Simeon blessed them, and said
unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and
rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken
against {Luke 2:34}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION/ANSWER: Mary is espoused to Joseph before they were married, and why
did Joseph need a bill of divorce? Did they get married and have a ceremony?
{Luke 1:27}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joseph and Mary married before he took her
to Bethlehem. They most likely had a
Jewish marriage ceremonial. Joseph
marriage means Jesus is born to an earthly father where the Jewish tribe line of
Judah and David is given. Joseph is the
step father of Jesus and legal parent as this occurred before Jesus birth. The father supplies the name to the child
Jesus. See
See my paper: "Virgin"
for more information
on this subject.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION/ANSWER: Does every generation still call Mary blessed (Roman Catholic)?
{Luke 1:28/42/48}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is too bad the Roman Catholic Church
has wrong teachings about Mary. If we
ignore Roman Catholic’s then Mary would be blessed being the mother of the man
Jesus and she still be blessed. The
Christian who studies the Word of God and keep it is also blessed.

on this subject.
Found favour with God: Grace from God to man
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION/ANSWER: Why is grace (favor with God) not in Matthew or Mark? {Luke 1:30}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Favor with God is equal to grace.
Certainly, Matthew and Mark include scriptures that show God’s grace such as
Jesus teachings, healings, death and resurrection. The word grace is however, not found in these
two books.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
See my paper: "Mary" for more information on this subject.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION/ANSWER: Does mother of my Lord mean Mary is the mother of God? {Luke
1:31/43}
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The mother of my Lord:
Mary is the biological mother of the human
man Jesus. In the Jewish religion, the
child becomes Jewish through his mother.
Jesus is also true God and always existed. Mary is not the mother of God – Divine Son
Jesus.
The Roman Catholic use of the mother of
God is false as shown in her statement “my Saviour”. Also God the Father and the Holy Spirit do
not have Mary as their mother.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The throne of his father David:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION/ANSWER: Does the Jewish kingdom continue forever? {Luke 1:32/33}
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Jews are God’s chosen people
forever. The Church did not move them
from that unique position among peoples.
Jesus, the man, is still a Jew.
This Jewish promise continues into the kingdom age. The Gentiles Christians are grafted into
Jewish nation.

WAY: God

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION/ANSWER: Is the Holy Ghost the father of Jesus? Jesus refers to his father as God the Father?
{Luke 1:35}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Holy Spirit and also God the Father is
Jesus earthly Father since there is only one Triunity Godhead. This is a large topic which needs many
scriptures. See my paper for more
information on this subject at:
See my paper: "Just
Who Is God?" for
more information on this subject.
I know that one can’t compare the Triunity
Godhead to any earthly material, but I will try nonetheless to help people
understand the Triunity God.
Water (H2O) can be found in three
states: liquid, solid, and gas. If you take liquid water and boil it, you
have both liquid and gases water states.
If you drop a water ice cube into the liquid-gases mixture you have
water in three states at the same time.
This could be compared to the triunity
Godhead of the one God existence in all three (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) at
the very same time.

KEYWORD: SAVE {LUKE 1:71-23:39}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the
hand of all that hate us; {Luke 1:71}
(2) But unto none of them was
Elias sent, save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a
woman that was a widow. {Luke 4:26}
(3) Then said Jesus unto them,
I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath days to do good,
or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?
{Luke 6:9}
(4) And he said to the
woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace. {Luke 7:50}
(5) Those by the way side
are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the
word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
{Luke 8:12}
(6) And when he came into
the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and James,
and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden. {Luke
8:51}
(7) For whosoever will save
his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake,
the same shall save it. {Luke 9:24}
(8) For the Son of man is
not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And
they went to another village. {Luke 9:56}
(9) Then said one unto him,
Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them, {Luke
13:23}
(10) There are not found
that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. {Luke
17:18}
(11) Whosoever shall seek
to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall
preserve it. {Luke 17:33}
(12) And Jesus said
unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save
one, that is, God. {Luke 18:19}
(13) And they that heard it
said, Who then can be saved? {Luke 18:26}
(14) And Jesus said
unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee. {Luke
18:42}
(15) For the Son of man is
come to seek and to save that which was lost. {Luke 19:10}
(16) And the people stood
beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying,
He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the
chosen of God. {Luke 23:35}
(17) And saying, If thou be
the king of the Jews, save thyself. {Luke 23:37}
(18) And one
of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be
Christ, save thyself and us. {Luke 23:39}
