Lambano is an important word.


But as many as [lambano] received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God...

--John 1



John 6:63
The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life.

Hey Molly, where do I get the pure heart? I do need to receive Him but where does this ability to receive Him come from?

How does one get a pure heart?

cp

Are we not the WORK of HIS HANDS,....A NEW Heart given? :HeartThrob:

Christ rising from the Tomb , Mary SEEING the Gardener  ,but Not yet of the Understanding who fulfils the Fathers( will & works) as HE who works through the TRUE earth , the Hearts of those born of Him.

Seems after HEARING HIS **voice*** , she TURNS around and then recognises HIM



Mat 5:8 Blessed [are] the pure in heart: for they shall see(understand) God.

[Zeek]

Rom 1:19  Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath showed it unto them.

Rom 1:20  For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Rom 1:21  Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

Rom 1:22  Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

G5335
φάσκω

Prolongation from the same as G5346; to assert: - affirm, profess, say.


Pro 18:21  Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

Adam was not deceived.

24For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.

25Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.

26A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.

27And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.

28And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.

29I will also save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.

30And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that ye shall receive no more reproach of famine among the heathen.

31Then shall ye remember your own evil ways, and your doings that were not good, and shall lothe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.

--Eze 36

Isaiah 65:2
I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;




12But as many as received [lambano] him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

13Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

--John 1



Isaiah 65

9And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.

10And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.

That's what I like to hear. I need a God who will rescue me from myself.

God is greater than what we hope to be.   When there is a disaster like a huge storm.  we know there are people who get stranded in their cars that probably knew better than to get out and drive.

Do we then withhold their  "salvation" because of that, or is it the right thing to do to save them anyway.  Is it too late for them because they knew better and the storm already came, so too bad?   

I mean, is God actually worse or better than that?

Yeah.... Better than we can imagine.

Lambano is not a passive verb.

26A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.

27And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.

--Eze 36




1And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

2And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

--Rev 21



28And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.

--Eze 36



3And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

--Rev 21

[claypot]

Paul and Molly, your encouragement and insight is appreciated. Let me go a step further and hope that even as I resist God He will save me. Let me go even further and hope that even as I intentionally do things contrary to Him, He will save me.

Molly, you quoted some of my favorite verses from Ez 36. I need a heart transplant like no other.
