REDEEMED


 


DEEM AND REDEEM

 

 

DEEM:

To regard or consider in a specified way.

"the event was deemed a great success”

 

 

Originally, “DEEM” meant "TO LEGALLY CONDEMN."

The word is still frequently used pertaining to the law 

meaning "to judge or decide after inquiry and deliberation," 

 

 

“REDEEM” means to release [set free (from the judgement, sentence, or condemnation)] 

by paying the full ransom…

       …restoring "something back, into the possession of its rightful owner;

rescuing from the power and possession of an alien possessor" (Wm. Barclay).

 

It is from a root word meaning “to discharge from prison”: 

to untie, unshackle, unbind from chains… 

to loose, release, dissolve, destroy, break (up), melt, take off, put off. 

 

 

Gal3:13  “Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law…”

 

 

Titus2:14 “Who gave himself for us, that he might REDEEM us from all iniquity, 

and purify unto himself a peculiar people...”

 

 

“REDEEMED” also means:  to reverse what was “DEEMED”… or “DEEM” AGAIN

 

 

The word “accuse” or “accuser” in Hebrew is the word, “satan”.

 

 

satan and the world have DEEMED us “guilty!”

 

But Christ has RE-DEEMED us “righteous”!

 

 

We have been DEEMED “defiled”

 

… but RE- DEEMED “holy”!

 

 

DEEMED “captive, sick and diseased”

 

RE-DEEMED “delivered, healed and whole”!

 

 

DEEMED “cursed and forgotten”

 

RE-DEEMED “blessed, accepted and approved”!

 

 

DEEMED “fatherless failures… a mistake… a lost cause”

 

RE-DEEMED “fearfully and wonderfully made”! (Ps139:14)

… “the apple of HIS eye” (Zech2:8)

…”engraved upon the palms of His hands”  (Isa49:16)

 

…“sons of the living God”!

 

…“overcomer”!

 

 

The ransom has been paid…

             …restoring you to your rightful owner…

 

 

 JESUS CHRIST, THE KING, RE-DEEMED… RE-NAMED YOU!!!

 

 

Lk21:17TLB “…you are mine and are called by my name.”

 

 

Isa43:7NKJV  “Everyone who is called by My name,

Whom I have created for My glory;

I have formed him, yes, I have made him.”

 

 

Rev2:17  “…To him that overcomes will I give… a white stone, and in the stone a new name written…”

 

 

Num23:19–20  

“God is not a man, that HE should lie; 

neither the son of man, that HE should repent: 

hath HE said, and shall HE not do it? 

or hath HE spoken, and shall HE not make it good? 

Behold, I have received commandment to bless: 

and HE HATH BLESSED…

 

…AND I CANNOT REVERSE IT!!!

LET YOUR FRUIT SPEAK

LET YOUR FRUIT SPEAK?     People say, , “God told me”…  or “Holy Spirit directed me…”or… “this business belongs to Jesus, He tells me what to do!”     WHY?     Why do they preface THEIR works with such statements?     Isn’t it a ruse of the enemy to keep them unapproachable, uncorrectable, and continuing their own way without interference? … ITS INTENT: prevent ANYONE from speaking into them or the situation… After all… “who are YOU to contradict what God has said?”     “Every tree is known by his own fruit.” (Lk6:44) “…by their fruits you shall know them.” (Mtt7:20)   An apple tree does not have to tell you it is one… it just bears apples! …a cherry tree bears cherries.    You can tell a Dogwood Tree by its “Bark”… well… maybe that doesn’t fit the analogy.     If I have to tell you I am a certain type of tree, it is probably because there is NO FRUIT to make identification easy.     “He that speak...

FORMING YOUR WORLD

  Forming Your World     Have you been in a place in life where you feel like your world has no form, reason, nor rationale to it… like it is void of meaning or direction… and it seems like the darkness is so deep and thick that you not only can't see, but are so disoriented you have no clue as to which way is up?     How do you get out of THAT?     Gen1:1-2 describes just that scenario, but on a grand universal scale: “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep.”     The rest of verse 2 begins to show the hope in the midst of the vast void…                   “…And the Spirit of God MOVED UPON the face of the waters.”             “MOVED UPON” is from a primitive Hebrew root word meaning: to brood: to hover, flutte...

CONVICTION

Image
  CONVICTION   I have frequently heard the phrase, “the Holy Spirit CONVICTED me”… or… “I was CONVICTED by the Lord”.  As a young boy I was taught that God was this big eye in the sky continually watching to see if I was being good… and the Holy Spirit, being on my shoulder, would  speak in my ear to bring that guilt… shaming me back to the right path.the moment I stepped out of line   But… why did Jesus send the Holy Spirit to us?     In  Jn16:7 Christ calls the Holy Spirit “ THE COMFORTER ”. He uses the term, “ parakletos ”, which was used in NT times of an  attorney (lawyer)… someone  giving evidence that stands up in court .   It comes from two words: “ para ” (close-beside), and “ kaleo ” (make a call). The word properly means: a legal advocate, advisor, or alongside helper who makes the right judgment- call  because  close  enough to the situation.       Zech3 clearly portrays a courtroom drama u...
