Friend Article 4 by Jerry – B. A. Friend, on 9-28-19 J.S.N.Be A Friend Series – Jesus Social NetworkWolves in Sheep Clothing are Not Our Good Friends. Wolves in Sheep Clothing are Not Our Good Friends. UN-Godly Wolves are Not God's Friends. God is a very jealous friend. He wants us to be true loyal friends to him and worship Him only. He does not want us to be influenced, deceived and defiled by people who are wolves in sheep clothing, who are wicked enemies of God. Beware of people who try to beguile us, lead us astray by trickery, flattery, charm, slyness, hoodwinking, and by enchantment. God instructed the Jewish "... community to take action at once and swiftly with everybody in the community getting in on it ..." Today, God expects the Christian community, Jewish community, public community and governments to function in an appropriate Biblical way of justice for evildoers. Bible Gateway Holy Bible Good News Translation Deuteronomy 13:6-10 “And when your brother or son or daughter, or even your dear wife or lifelong friend, comes to you in secret and whispers, ‘Let’s go and worship some other gods’ (gods that you know nothing about, neither you nor your ancestors, the gods of the peoples around you near and far, from one end of the Earth to the other), don’t go along with him; shut your ears. Don’t feel sorry for him and don’t make excuses for him. ... Take action at once and swiftly with everybody in the community getting in on it ... .... He tried to turn you traitor against God, your God, the one who got you out of Egypt and the world of slavery.”

Friend on 9-28-19 Be A Friend Series – Jesus Social NetworkWhy Should We Be A Friend To God? God is looking for friends to redeem..God takes pleasure in burying our death to self, raising us up, from the grave of death, bringing us to life, through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.God lowers us into our Spiritual poverty, so we can look up to Him, to lift us up, bringing us into the wealth of His Spirit.God takes us, as Spiritually poor disasters. He redeems and establishes us, onto our feet. God takes our burned-out lives and rekindles us with fresh hope.God takes our undignified, non-respectable lives of darkness, despair and failure. He restores dignity and respect for us, as He places us, into the daylight sun, of His righteousness.God lays out His operation plan, on His own firm foundation, of His earthly structures. God, step by step, protects and cares for his faithful friends. God leaves the wicked, to stumble in the dark. They will not make it past this life, on their own efforts.God will blast His enemies, out of the sky, they will crash into a heap and burn. God will set things right all over the earth. God will give strength to his anointed king, and set him on top of the world to rule.Good News Translation 1 Samuel 2:6-10 “God brings death and God brings life, brings down to the grave and raises up. God brings poverty and God brings wealth; he lowers, he also lifts up. He puts poor people on their feet again; he rekindles burned-out lives with fresh hope, Restoring dignity and respect to their lives— a place in the sun! For the very structures of earth are God’s; he has laid out his operations on a firm foundation. He protectively cares for his faithful friends, step by step, but leaves the wicked to stumble in the dark. No one makes it in this life by sheer muscle! God’s enemies will be blasted out of the sky, crashed in a heap and burned. God will set things right all over the earth, he’ll give strength to his king, he’ll set his anointed on top of the world!”

We are all, important, in the Body of Christ, even if we discover, that we think, we might be, a hangnail, just hanging around, watching all the other glamorous action figure members, in the Body, doing awesome things. If we happen to be a hangnail, we need to be the best hangnail, that we can be. We can not be discouraged, if it appears, that our time, of significance, in the Body, has not arrived. We are all needed, even if it appears, that we are not desired, by other parts of the Body. Just keep on, hanging on, brothers and sisters! Pray with me that no one pulls us off. I am cheering for you. Jerry - B. A. Friend
Biblical Friendship Article 2 by Jerry - B. A. Friend 9-27-19 J.S.N.Be A Friend Series – Jesus Social NetworkAmanda Frittz asks, “What does a true friend look like and how can you become one?” ... View MoreBiblical Friendship Article 2 by Jerry - B. A. Friend 9-27-19 J.S.N.Be A Friend Series – Jesus Social NetworkAmanda Frittz asks, “What does a true friend look like and how can you become one?” Amanda Frittz says, “A True Friend Puts God First”. Luke 14:26 “If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters–yes, even their own life–such a person cannot be my disciple” First of all, if we want true Biblical friends, and we want to be a true Biblical friend, then Jesus must be first place in our life and in our friends life, to understand friendship principles. Jesus was a friend to us, while we were very lost, confused, disgusting, obnoxious, unfriendly sinners. He died on the cross and was raised from the dead, redeeming us unto himself, so we could have an eternal friendship with him. To come to Jesus, to be his disciple, to learn his secret of being a friend, we must be totally sold out in love with him. Examining our allegiance and love for our self, and in our relationships with our father, our mother, our wife, our husband, our children, our brothers, our sisters, yes even our mother-in-law, all these must be considered as being hate relationships, yes, inferior, defective, low quality, even hate relationships, compared to our allegiance, love and friend relationship with our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ. Only in this perspective can we then begin to understand how to love people, like Jesus loved us.Amanda Frittz says, “A True Friend is Quick to Forgive & Slow to Anger”. Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” 1 Corinthians 13:4-5 “Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way…” Matthew 6:15 “but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.”To be a true Biblical friend, we must realize that on our own terms, we are sinners, like soggy wet sponges, oozingly full and dripping with sin. We do not bring any glory of our own, to Jesus. We are disgusting before him, in our own naked shame. It is only after we have been redeemed by Jesus, and while the Holy Spirit provides us with the Fruit of the Spirit, that we are able to function in Christ’s love and forgive others, because Christ forgave and redeemed us.Amanda Frittz says, “A True Friend Leads You Back to God When You Are Going Astray”. Proverbs 14:!2 “There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.”We looked at the map, we were sure, we made the correct turn onto this road, and all of a sudden it happened. It was you and me heading down a steep, narrow, winding mountain road, with a drop off on one side and the mountain on the other side, in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee, in a motor-home, rapidly increasing in speed, with faulty brakes. We were screaming at the top of our lungs, at each other and at God, crying and praying in a state of shock, panic and terror that God would save us from a certain and sudden blood curling death. Low is the drop off in the Valley of Death, shall we fear no evil? Is our faithful friend with us? Where is our faithful friend, that will direct us back to a safe and peaceful path beside still waters, where our soul is restored? We need Biblical friends. We need to be Biblical friends. What a friend we have in Jesus!Amanda Frittz says, “True Friends Sacrifice Their Comfort for One Another”. Galatians 5:13 “For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.”Jesus had it made in Heaven. Then he gave up his comfort. He came to earth. He sacrificed himself to redeem us. He gave us freedom. We should not use our freedom for our own selfish gluttony. Jesus served us. We should serve one another. Friends do without, so friends can be filled. Amanda Frittz says that God created us with a deep desire for connection, for fellowship and for intimate emotional relationships and these are required for us to experience a healthy life. She says that God has given us Biblical instruction on how to experience true Biblical friendship and true Biblical love with other people. There are a lot of Christians that have not done much better than non-Christians in the realms of 1] experiencing Biblical friendship, in their relationships 2] experiencing Biblical love, in their relationships, 3] knowing the characteristics of a true Biblical friend, in their relationships, and 4] knowing how to become a Biblical friend, in their relationships.I suggest we read and compare the article below with my comments. More importantly, I recommend we study God’s Word, the Bible, about these concepts. Pray about these, talk to mature wholesome Christians, discuss this on J.S.N. and try practicing these concepts in our relationships. Your friend, Jerry - B. A.

View MoreBe A Friend Jerry - B. A. Friend Article 1 written by Jerry - B. A. Friend 9-25-19Be A Friend Mary welcomed me as a friend. She had previously wrote a Bible study lesson on the Book of Ruth. Why is Ruth important to us? Mary says that ... "Ruth means friend or companion." Ruth was a loyal friend and companion to Naomi during some very difficult situations. How do we deal with difficult situations? Mary says ... "how we deal with difficult situations depends on how we see God in those situations." How do we see Jesus in difficult situations? Mary says ... "Jesus Christ wants to redeem us for Himself." Are we seeing Jesus lately and often so he can redeem us for Himself? Do we need to be redeemed from difficult situations? Mary says ... "Ruth didn’t have the right ancestry, position and purity that most people would have expected Boaz to desire. Ruth was not Jewish. She was a stranger or foreigner. Ruth wasn’t a virgin, but a widow. Ruth was not wealthy and was less than a servant girl." Oh my, do we have difficult situations? Do we need redemption big time? Is Jesus our Redeemer, each day, in our difficult situations? Do we need to be desired and loved? Mary says ... "Despite all of this, Boaz loved her ." Despite our difficult situations, God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit loved and loves us. What does Jesus want from us: Mary says that ... "The purpose ... of Ruth is to show the love and faithfulness that God wants from us." First God wants us, for his very own, so he loved us first, to get us, as his very own, while we were UN-redeemed miserable sinners. Then we were to begin a life time of living in our redeemed relationship with Jesus, through the Holy Spirit, with a new spiritual ... "noble character and ... heart”. These are Mary’s words, describing Ruth. How can we show our love and faithfulness to Jesus that he wants from us? Since he became our friend first, we can become his loyal friend, based upon his terms, listed in his Word, the Bible. Part of being a friend to Jesus, is being a friend to people, who need Jesus, as their Friend, Savior and Lord. Mary knew very little about me, but she stepped into the unknown realm by faith, to accept me as a friend. Accepting a friend could be like opening a box of chocolates and experiencing the mysterious contents, hidden beneath the coating. Sometimes the coating looks gross, sometimes marvelous. The contents are most always a devastating disappointment, and rarely an exorbitant delight. People at times, can be less than desirable, both with their coatings and their contents. People are broken, lost, in debt to sin, and down right obnoxious at times. When I was in Jr. High School and younger, I often tormented and pestered my older brothers and sisters. At least once, they called me obnoxious and maybe other names, at other times, that I likely well deserved. They still loved me, and I loved them, and we all turned out to at least be tolerable. We as people do not know what to expect in the realm of the unknown. The unknown can be a difficult situation in which to deal. Being a friend, to someone, whose coatings and contents are not always known, agreeable, and taste worthy can be an ongoing difficult situation. Mary says ... "how we deal with difficult situations depends on how we see God in those situations." If we see Jesus, as our Redeemer, and we know that our Redeemer lives in us, then we can set aside our own gift of obnoxiousness, and in love and faithfulness to our Lord Jesus Christ, be a loyal friend to Jesus, a loyal friend to our obnoxious friends and bring redemption through our friendships and lay them down at the feet of Jesus, as a holy sacrifice. What a friend we have in Jesus! The above article written by Jerry - B. A. Friend, was based upon the following article by Mary Osbon.Mary's Lesson Quotes from: The Book of Ruth Chapter 1 - Part 1 C.L.M. by Mary Osbon on April 27, 2019

I want you to know that we are being attacked by insurgents everyday and car bombs and during one of our rescue mission we came across a safe box that contain huge amount of money that belongs to the supporters of the over thrown government of Libya, which I believe was money meant for buying weapons and ammunition, and it was agreed by all Army officers present on that rescue mission that the money will be shared among us and which we did. Out of the total fund my share was $2.3,000,000 (Two Million Three Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) I am seeking your assistance to evacuate my share of the money out of this country (Libya) to your own country for you to keep it safe on my behalf till i come over to your country, So i want you to assure me that if this money is been delivered to you in your country that you are going to be trustworthy to keep the money till when i will come to your country to meet you face to face to collect the money back from you.

Note; I do not know how long we going to remain here and my fate since I have survived two bomb attack here, which prompted me to search out for a reliable and trust worthy person to help me receive and invest the Fund, because I will be coming over to your home country to invest and start a new life not as a soldier anymore.
