BORN AGAIN

You should be born again, otherwise you cannot enter the Kingdom of God Jn 3/5-8. No one can be born again by his own power. The new birth is a miracle of God which draws His people to Him. Jn 6/44. To those who have the heart deeply touched by the Message of the Gospel, Peter has already given the keys so that they can properly approach the Person of God. See Keys. Therefore, they should comply to the demands of the Lord expecting new birth. See Baptism. Fields.  Keys.

I shall pour in you a new spirit 11/19. 36/26. Those who receive Jesus-Christ and believe in his name are born, not from blood, but from God Jn 1/12-13. It is by the Word of God that we are born again 1 Pt 1/23. He who is born again does not remain in sin 1 Jn 3/9. Whoever is born of God will triumph over the world 1 Jn 5/4. See Confess. Advocate.

 

BREAD OF LIFE.

Jesus-Christ is the Bread of Life. The bread we eat at the table, just before the evening meal, is the symbol of the body of Jesus-Christ. See Lord's supper.

I am the Bread of life Jn 6/33-58.

 

BRIDE. See Bridegroom

 

BRIDEGROOM.

See Jesus-Christ. Jesus-Christ is the Bridegroom of his humble victorious Bride. See Trust

Not the whole Church is the Bride of Christ. There are, in the veritable Church of Jesus-Christ, the wise and the crazy. The crazy are not the Bride. Matt 25/1-13. The Bride belongs to Jesus Jn 3/27-30. Those who are called for the wedding feast of the Lamb Rev 19/5-10. The foolish virgins are not the idolators or people of the false church. Those are not virgin, but corrupt. The virgins are among the Evangelical Christians who love the Lord but don't behave with dignity. See Worthy.

 

BROTHER. See sister.

Those who have God as a father are brothers. See son of God. In the Community, men are called brothers. In the N.T., the disciples are called brothers nearly 160 times.

Peter should strengthen his brothers. Lk 22/32. Those who don't like the brothers remain in death 1 Jn 3/10-17. Give one's life for the brothers 1 Jn 3/16. Jesus-Christ had brothers for his mother had sons Mk 6/3. Jn 2/12. Jn 7/3, 5 and 10.

They are James (Mk 6/3 Gal 1/19) Joseph, Simon and Jude. Jesus also had sisters Mk 3/31-35.

We don't believe that Mary remained a virgin. She married Joseph and had normal relations with her husband. The brothers (adelphos) and sisters of Jesus are thus not cousins (anepsios) as the false church would like us to believe. As you can notice, the word 'cousin' is a distinct word. It is used in the letter to the Colossians Col 3/10.

 

Brother of blood = adelphos.

Cousin = anepsios.

 

A prophecy of David presents Jesus has having brothers.

Ps 69/9. ''a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my mother's own sons.''

Jesus could have quoted this prophecy in Matt 12/46-50.

 

CAESAR. See Authority

It is a title given to some Roman emperors. Jesus-Christ uses this word to name the ruler, the secular power. Give back to Caesar Matt 22/21. Mark 12/17. Luke 20/25.

 

CAIAPHAS. NT

High Priest at the time of Jesus-Christ. He is the son in law of Anna. He adamantly opposes Jesus-Christ and his disciples. Matt 26/3-4.; Jn 11/47-51; Jn 18/13-14.

 

CAIN. O.T. See Adam, Abel, Eve.

Son of the Devil and of Eve, 1Jn 3/12; Gn 4/1-16. He killed his brother Abel who was his twin brother. Abel had Adam as a father. It is scientifically proved that a woman can deliver twins who don't have the same father.

God rejected his sacrifice Gn 4/3-7. He killed his brother Abel Gn 4/8-14. The Lord put a sign on him Gn 4/15.

 

CALEB. OT

One of the twelve spies sent by Moses in the promised land. It was already two years since Israel had left Egypt. Joshuah and Caleb alone came back with a faithful report on the promised land. Nb 13/6, 30; Nb 14/6-38. They are also the only ones to have lived fourty years in the desert. Nb 26/65; 32/12; Deut 1/36. They alone entered the promised land. Even Moses did not enter.

 

CANAAN, CANAANITES. OT

Son of Cham Gn 9/18. Gn 10/1-6. The grandfather of Canaan was Noah. The Canaanites are the inhabitants of the land of Canaan. It is a region situated West of the Jordan River. The Greeks called this country: Phenicia.

 

CANON.

It is a collection which is acknowledged and has authority as a divine work.

The Bible consists of books which are recognized as having a divine origin. See Jude.

 

CARNAL. See Body. Fall of adam and Eve. Flesh. Soul.

Whatever is not spiritual. What is mortal, secular and sensual.

 

CELIBACY. See marriage.

 

CHAM. O.T. see Noah. Egypt.

Third son of Noah Gn 5/31. 6/10. He is in the ark Gn 7/13. His son Canaan is cursed Gn 9/18-25.
