Jesus Has No Sword In His Mouth. Understanding Revelation 1:16 And 2:16 by Joagbaje(m): 11:04am On Feb 08, 2013

Revelation 1:16
And he had in his right hand seven stars:and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword:and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength . . ..


Revelation 2:16
Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.

To have good understanding . Lets look at Ephesians

Ephesians 6:17
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God

The Greek rendering for "word" in the verse above is "rhema," and it means the spoken Word of God for the "now." It is God’s specific Word to you, at a specific time, for a specific purpose. It’s the Word of God in your mouth for the moment, concerning you or anything that you’re directing it at. That Word in your mouth is the sword of the Spirit.

The Greek word for "mouth" is "stoma," and it means the front or edge of a weapon. Literally, it means the front of a sword. That's why In Revelations 1:16, the Apostle John describes the Son of Man saying, "… out of his mouth went a sharp two edged sword." Again, Revelations 2:16 says, "…I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth."

Now, Jesus doesn’t have a "physical" sword protruding out of His mouth. The Word He speaks is the sword of the Spirit. After you’ve deliberately and consciously meditatedunder on the Scriptures, the Word that comes out of your mouth becomes the Word of the Spirit with which you cut the enemy in pieces. When you face crises in life, practise meditation. When you receive that "rhema-word" from the Spirit, speak it over or against the situation.

With today’s technology, you can play or listen to God’s Word, loading it into your spirit on the go, through various media formats. As the Word gets into your spirit, mutter it or shout it forth as you’re stirred in your spirit. At that moment, the words you speak become the active or creative Word. This creative Word is powerful and produces results. It’s the sword of the Spirit with which you get on the offensive against Satan and his wicked onslaught.

Not sure where you are heading with this... But I think you are mainly repeating what Pastor Chris has written in His book and taught in his messages. But my question for you is... When God speaks, that is His word right? So then, what is this thingy about cramming and repeating the word? The bible said, study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman needed not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Shouldn't emphasis be placed on building that relationship through His word rather than on cramming it just so you can speak it to gain something? Surely, the bible also said, the words of the righteous is right (just).

Regurgitating what Pastor Chris has studied for Himself and built an understanding upon without you adding any value is utter useless and it makes one looks more like a dummy! I know very well those postings aren't yours because you took them out of one of Pastor Chris messages.

If you do not want people to comment why open the thread then? You raised some controversial issue in your post yet you want people to accept it hook line and sinker, but hey, we are not all dummies you know.
