Family of God: Re: [FamilyofGod] Re: Going special notice

There is no verse of Scripture saying that on the Day of Pentecost God and Jesus were excited and shouting, "Surprise! Happy Birthday!" "Hope you enjoy your present!" Nevertheless, that must have been how they felt that day. God had in mind the "sacred secret," the Administration of Grace, for thousands of years, but He was the only one who knew. He had hidden it from men, angels, and demons. Good thing, too, for the "present" God gave the Church was so valuable that had Satan known what God was going to do, he would not have crucified Jesus, as the following verse makes clear:

1 Corinthians 2:7 and 8 (Author's Translation)
(7) But we speak God's wisdom in a sacred secret, even the wisdom that has been hidden, which God marked out beforehand, before the ages, to our glory,
(8) which none of the rulers of this age knew, for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU ALLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

love u,

JudyL,

Have a safe and wonderful trip. Might want to bring some nose plugs if
you're traveling I40 going into Amarillo. The people around there call
it the smell of money. I think that it just flat stinks. (hehehehehe)
Yeah, have traveled that road several times going to friends of the
family near Albuquerque, NM and when we lived in Bakersfield and would
come home and go back. Sometimes, when I was a kid and my aunt and uncle
lived in Colorado Springs Dad would take that route and head north from
Albuquerque. Ahhhhh, the memories.

We will be praying for your safe passage.
