October 19 - Jesus’ Deity in His Judgment

#LifeOfChrist

“‘For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son’” (John 5:22).

Jesus’ authority to grant spiritual life to whomever He chooses is consistent with His authority to judge all men on the last day (cf. 3:18–19; 12:48). Since God is the “Judge of all the earth” (Gen. 18:25), the fact that the Father judges no one, but “has given all judgment to the Son,” further attests to Christ’s deity. Because their wills are in perfect harmony, all judgment can be given to Christ in the assurance that His judgment will be, in fact, the very same as the Father’s judgment. Although judgment was not the primary purpose of Christ’s first coming to earth (3:17; 12:47), it remains the inescapable final result of rejecting the salvation He offers (3:18).

In the future, “the Lord Jesus will be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels in flaming fire, dealing out retribution to those who do not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus” (2 Thess. 1:7–8), because God “has fixed a day in which He will judge the world in righteousness through a Man whom He has appointed, having furnished proof to all men by raising Him from the dead” (Acts 17:31). On that final, terrible day of judgment, those who rejected Jesus will hear Him say, “I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness” (Matt. 7:23).

Take the time right now to examine your relationship to Christ. Make sure you are depending on His grace and mercy for salvation, not on your own sincere efforts.

Ask Yourself

Knowing ourselves and our tendency to sin, our view of God’s power is perhaps most clearly seen, not in His ability and authority to judge but in His willingness to continually restrain it. That He doesn’t begrudge His sacrifice but keeps applying it to our need is evidence of the highest form of mercy. Thank Him heartily for this today.

DAY 19: What should a believer’s attitude be toward suffering?
https://telegra.ph/DAILY-BIBLE-10-19

Good morning!

Jesus Christ is risen.
Jesus Christ has ascended to the Father.
Jesus Christ reigns.
Jesus Christ is returning soon.

Repent and trust in Him for eternal life!

There is no place for despair as long as Christ is on the throne.

“Let those who delight in my righteousness shout for joy and be glad and say evermore, ‘Great is the Lord, who delights in the welfare of his servant!’” Psalm 35:27

The Lord delights in those who delight in him.

Greater gladness in God is the great battle of the soul.

Christians, guard your heart against these spiritual traps:

• Neglecting frequent prayer
• Seeking the approval of the world
• Tolerating unrepentant sin
• Drifting away from God's people

WEEK 4 — Hope of Renewal (Oct 19–25)

October 19 (Monday)

Dear Daughter,

The first green shoot after a hard frost doesn't ask permission from the cold — it simply pushes through when it's ready.
This week, look for the first small signs of renewal in your marriage, even if winter hasn't officially ended.
Hope often arrives before the season fully turns.
'Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth' (Isa 43:19).

What small green shoot of renewal have you noticed in your marriage lately?
#DearDaughter #MondayReset #StrongMarriage

Oct 19 (Mon)
"New week, new endurance! 💪🔥 Love that lasts keeps choosing, even tired! 1 Cor 13:7 ❤️ What will you keep choosing this week? #StrongMarriage #October"

To our Father, prayer is as incense; it is a pleasing smell to him. In other words, he delights to hear and help us.

The sovereignty of God is the pillow upon which the child of God rests his head at night, giving perfect peace.

- Charles Spurgeon

Let the one who is without sin, cast the first stone.

John 8:7

Four things that religious rituals can never do:

• Forgive your sins
• Grant you eternal life
• Justify you before God
• Get you to Heaven

Only Jesus.

There's too many accounts with "Christ is King" in their bios, but:

• They're racist
• They lack grace
• They constantly argue and debate
• They lack the fruit of the Spirit

"Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven." (Matt. 7:21)

For I determined to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified.
1 Corinthians 2:2

💎Week 3: Caring for the Body and Resources


🌬️ Q9 Commentary: Absolute Dependence on the Sovereign Breath

🎯 Correct Answer: B

• 📖 The Scriptural Blueprint: Psalm 104:29 (ESV) reveals, “When you hide your face, they are dismayed; when you take away their breath, they die and return to their dust.”

• 💡 The Theological Insight: Expository theology radically tethers all created existence to the continuous, momentary providence of God. Creation does not run on an independent mechanical clock. The physical life of every animal, plant, and human being hangs completely on the divine countenance. If God hides His face, systemic dismay follows; if He withdraws His breath, physical animation ceases instantly. We are structurally dependent on the Sustainer for every single heartbeat.

• ⚠️ Strategy Breakdown: Option C fabricated a vivid prophetic description of a failing harvest to capture voters who look for dramatic, external narratives rather than the internal reality of breath and dust.

⚡ Prophetic Proclamation:
Your very breath is a borrowed resource, yet you hesitate to speak for the truth. You have 45 minutes to drop your casual armor and face the precision text. Cast your vote before the time expires!

💎Week 3: Caring for the Body and Resources


🍽️ Q10 Commentary: The Defeat of False Asceticism

🎯 Correct Answer: D

• 📖 The Scriptural Blueprint: 1 Timothy 4:4 (ESV) declares, “For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving.”

• 💡 The Theological Insight: Paul ruthlessly targets the demonic heresy of false asceticism, which erroneously treats the physical world—marriage, food, material resources—as inherently evil. Biblical stewardship is not marked by legalistic deprivation, but by holy reception. Because God is the Source of all creation, everything He made is good. The key that unlocks the proper enjoyment of physical resources is a heart of submissive gratitude, sanctifying the gift through the Word of God and prayer.

• ⚠️ Strategy Breakdown: Option C borrowed authentic terminology from the groanings of creation in Romans 8:20 to distract voters with a complex, cross-reference trap.

⚡ Prophetic Proclamation:
The world deals in legalistic constraints, but true wisdom walks in sanctified liberty. The 45-minute window is closing down its gates. Do not remain a silent ghost—commit your answer and test your grasp!

October 20: It Has Been Granted to You

#Devotional

Ezekiel 39:25–40:49; Revelation 19:11–20:6; Job 38:25–33

“It has been granted to her that she be dressed in bright, clean fine linen” (Rev 19:8), announces a voice from heaven in John’s revelation. The voice describes the bride who waits in anticipation—representing the believers who wait in expectation of being reunited with Christ.

The text contrasts the fine linen of the bride with the purple and scarlet cloth of the harlot, Babylon, who represents all that oppose God’s reign (Rev 18:16). The harlot receives criticism for her infidelity: “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great.… For all the nations have drunk from the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality, and the kings of the earth have committed sexual immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich from the power of her sensuality” (Rev 18:2–3).

But the cry goes out in and among Babylon: “Come out from her, my people” (Rev 18:4). The bride, who is preparing herself for the wedding celebration of the Lamb (Rev 19:7), responds to the call to remain pure—to avoid the temptations of the age. She is given the opportunity to dress herself in bright, clean fine linen, representing “the righteous deeds of the saints” (Rev 19:8). These deeds do not earn the bride her righteous standing before the Lamb, but they speak of a life that is transformed.

In Revelation, John uses this imagery to entreat the early believers to live righteously while awaiting the hope promised them. Christ has won the victory for us—the final conquering of sin and evil is imminent. We are empowered to live for Him now, to prepare ourselves for the day when we will have our reward: His presence.

How does your expectation of Christ’s coming help you live for Him now?

October 20 - Jesus’ Deity in His Honor

#LifeOfChrist

“‘. . . so that all will honor the Son even as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him. Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life’” (John 5:23–24).

The Father’s purpose in entrusting all judgment to Jesus is “so that all will honor the Son even as they honor the Father.” It is only fitting that those equal in nature (vv. 17–18), works (vv. 19–20), power and sovereignty (v. 21), and judgment (v. 22) would be accorded equal honor. The Father’s honor is not diminished by the honor paid to Christ; on the contrary, it is enhanced.

Although the unbelieving Jews thought they were truly worshiping God while rejecting His Son (cf. 16:2), instead the opposite was true: “he who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.” “He who hates Me,” Jesus warned, “hates My Father also” (John 15:23). Those who refuse to honor the Son while claiming to honor the Father are actually self-deceived.

That the Father and the Son are to be afforded equal honor forcefully asserts Christ’s deity and equality with God, who declared through the prophet Isaiah, “I will not give My glory to another” (Isa. 42:8; cf. 48:11). Yet the Father has commanded that “all will honor the Son.” Willingly or unwillingly, everyone will eventually obey the Father’s command to honor Jesus Christ. The blessed promise to those who believe is that they “do not come into judgment, but [have] passed out of death into life.”

Ask Yourself

Many in our culture today still don’t have a lot of trouble believing in God, but Jesus is quite another matter. Are you sometimes convinced that a person is spiritually sound because he talks favorably of God and exhibits some good qualities? How do you speak to an individual like this about his or her need for Jesus?
