The Chosen

Jesus Christ Is Lord!
28 August 2010

The imposition, did you research it?

The word “chosen” tells much. In Matthew God chooses as King His King of kings. In Mark He acts as servant for His chosen. In Luke He is chosen by man as the Man, chosen of God, to be listened to, and then mocked as a Man, Chosen of God, as He pays the price for (and from) all men. In John He Chooses as God and in doing He openly shows Himself as Jehovah.

Matthew 12:18
Behold My servant, whom I have chosen; My beloved, in whom My soul is well pleased: I will put My Spirit upon Him, and He shall shew judgment to the Gentiles.

Matthew 20:16
So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.

Matthew 22:14
For many are called, but few are chosen.

Mark 13:20
And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom He hath chosen, He hath shortened the days.

Luke 10:42
But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

Luke 23:35
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.

John 6:70
Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?

John 13:18
I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with Me hath lifted up his heel against me.

John 15:16
Ye have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in My name, He may give it you.

John 15:19
If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

Imposition is choosing you.

John 20:22
And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:

The words, “when He had said this, He breathed on them,” are written in the Greek as, touto eipon enephusese. The translation should be, tou to, his same self, ei ponos, through toil, en phusis, in (denotes position) growth (by germination or expansion).

It should read:
21Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.
22And this same self, through much toil (even in a dry ground, Think Genesis 8:21 & 22) in you will grow, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:
23Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

Receive is a word that literally means take hold of, and is translated caught in 2 Corinthians 12:16.
But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you with guile.

This isn’t the same word translated caught in verses 2 and 4. In those verses it is the Greek word harpazo and is where the word rapture comes from. Paul is caught up to heaven, but even he didn’t know if he was in the body or out. (You are so much smarter than he. You know everything.)

Harpazo is also the word translated in 1 Thessalonians 4:17.
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

It is that same word that is used in Acts 27:15 when the ship is caught. You know, the ship is caught just as Paul caught those he caught in 2 Corinthians 12.

Do you hear Me Church? Wake up; it is time to get up.

1 Corinthians 1:27
But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

1 Corinthians 1:28
And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

2 Corinthians 8:19
And not that only, but who was also chosen of the churches to travel with us with this grace, which is administered by us to the glory of the same Lord, and declaration of your ready mind:

Ephesians 1:4
According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

2 Thessalonians 2:13
But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

2 Timothy 2:4
No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

James 2:5
Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?

1 Peter 2:4
To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,

1 Peter 2:9
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;

Revelation 17:14
These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.)

You should at least read each of these with the surrounding verses for context.

In the Name of
Jesus Christ My Lord
Thank You My Father
