WELCOME TO BARAH MINISTRIES
In (unconditional) love//He (God the Father) predestined us to adoption as (adult) sons through (the Lord) Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His (God the Father’s) will…
…to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.//In Him (the Beloved, the Lord Jesus Christ) we have redemption through His blood, (and we have) theforgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace//which He lavished on us…
TODAY’S STUDY
Unconditional Love Invites You to See Relationships Through God’s Eyes
The Lord’s lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail.
They (the Lord’s lovingkindnesses and compassions) are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.
“The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “Therefore I have hope (absolute confidence) in Him.”
The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, (the Lord is good) to the person who seeks Him.
Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus…
…who, although He existed in the form of God (the same in essence), did not regard equality with God (the Father) a thing to be grasped (seized and held)…
…but (the Lord Jesus Christ) emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men.
Being found in appearance as a man, He (the Lord Jesus Christ) humbled (humiliated) Himself by becoming obedient to (God the Father to) the point of death, even death on a Cross.
For this reason also, God (the Father) highly exalted Him (the Lord Jesus Christ), and bestowed on Him (the Lord Jesus Christ) the name which is above every name…
…so that at the name of Jesus EVERY KNEE WILL BOW, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth…
…and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

When I Think About Home
But now faith, hope, love, abide (in the sphere of) these three; but the greatest of these is (unconditional) love.
Beloved, let us love one another (unconditionally), for (unconditional) love is from (the SOURCE of) God; and everyone who loves (unconditionally) is born of God and knows God.
The one who does not love (unconditionally) does not know God (he is an unbeliever), for God is (unconditional) love.
If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have (unconditional) love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
(Unconditional) Love is patient, (unconditional) love is kind and is not jealous; (unconditional) love does not brag and is not arrogant…
…(unconditional) does not act unbecomingly; it (unconditional) does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered…
…(unconditional) does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth…
…(unconditional) bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
But as many as (whosoever) received Him (the Lord Jesus Christ), to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name…
…who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but (who were born again…spiritual birth…of the SOURCE of THE) God (the Lord Jesus Christ).
“For God (the Father) so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten (uniquely born) Son (the Lord Jesus Christ), that who(so)ever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.”
Therefore it says, “WHEN HE (the Lord Jesus Christ) ASCENDED ON HIGH, HE LED CAPTIVE A HOST OF CAPTIVES, AND HE GAVE GIFTS TO MEN.”
It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm (in the sphere of freedom) and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.
GRACE
A divine thought process that underlies God’s entire viewpoint of unconditional love for His creatures…a free gift given to all mankind by the Creator, expressed by His actions of extending mercy, lovingkindness, salvation, and divine assets to His Creatures… a dimension of divine thought in which God meets human indifference and rebellion with an inexhaustible capacity to give, to forgive and to bless.
For of His fullness we have ALL received, and grace upon grace.
For the (Mosaic) Law was given through Moses; (but) grace and truth were realized through (the Lord) Jesus Christ.
The (Mosaic) Law came in so that the transgression would increase; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more…
…so that, as sin reigned (as sovereign) in (spiritual) death, even so grace would reign through righteousness to eternal life (the Zoe Life) through Jesus Christ our Lord.
To those who have received a faith of the same kind as ours, by the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ…
Grace and peace be MULTIPLIED to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus (Christ) our Lord…
…seeing that His divine power has granted to us EVERYTHING pertaining to (the details of) life and (to) godliness (the spiritual life), through the true knowledge of Him who called us (by inviting us to be saved) by His own glory and excellence.
For by these He has granted to
us His precious and magnificent promises, so that by them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the
world by lust.
But to each one of us grace
was given according to the
measure of Christ's gift.
Therefore there is
now no condemnation for
those who are in Christ Jesus.
“For if you forgive others for
their transgressions, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.”
“But if you do not forgive
others, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions.”
I am writing to you, little
children, because your sins have been forgiven you for His
name's sake.
“A new commandment I give
to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.”
