How shall i live: part 1
Matthew Matthew 4:4
But He answered and said, “It is written,
‘MAN SHALL NOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE, BUT ON EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.’”
Deuteronomy 8:3
“He humbled you and let you be hungry, and fed you with manna which you did not know, nor did your fathers know, that He might make you understand that man does not live by bread alone, but man lives by everything that proceeds out of the mouth of the LORD.
Matthew 4:7
Jesus said to him, “On the other hand, it is written,
‘YOU SHALL NOT PUT THE LORD YOUR GOD TO THE TEST.’”
Deuteronomy 6:16
“You shall not put the LORD your God to the test, as you tested Him at Massah.
Matthew 4:10
Then Jesus *said to him,
“Go, Satan! For it is written, ‘YOU SHALL WORSHIP THE LORD YOUR GOD, AND SERVE HIM ONLY.’”
Deuteronomy 6:4-19
Hear, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD is one!
You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.
These words, which I am commanding you today, shall be on your heart.
You shall teach them diligently to your sons and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up.
You shall bind them as a sign on your hand and they shall be as frontals on your forehead.
You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.
Then it shall come about when the LORD your God brings you into the land which He swore to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to give you, great and splendid cities which you did not build, and houses full of all good things which you did not fill, and hewn cisterns which you did not dig, vineyards and olive trees which you did not plant, and you eat and are satisfied, then watch yourself, that you do not forget the LORD who brought you from the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
You shall fear only the LORD your God; and you shall worship Him and swear by His name.
You shall not follow other gods, any of the gods of the peoples who surround you,
for the LORD your God in the midst of you is a jealous God; otherwise the anger of the LORD your God will be kindled against you, and He will wipe you off the face of the earth.
You shall not put the LORD your God to the test, as you tested Him at Massah.
You should diligently keep the commandments of the LORD your God, and His testimonies and His statutes which He has commanded you.
You shall do what is right and good in the sight of the LORD, that it may be well with you and that you may go in and possess the good land which the LORD swore to give your fathers, by driving out all your enemies from before you, as the LORD has spoken.

i understand Deuteronomy was written to Israel to the Juwish people and speaks of their fathers from older generations;
but understand this only one family came out of the Arc.
Their Fathers of old are also our fathers of old.
When Father God adopted the genitals in to HIS family, then we also are to obey the same words of Father GOD as the Jewish people are to obey and live by.
So the above list is a list of the way we are also to live,
if we go by the name Christian.
Knowing the word of GOD and living the words of GOD are two different things.
You can know of the word of GOD,
you can be sincere about the word of GOD,
but if you do not live by the words of GOD,
all you will have in the end is head knowledge and can still not enter in to the Kingdome of GOD.
“MAN SHALL NOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE, BUT ON EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.”
To live by is not to just have knowledge of but to live by;
to obey, to follow, to apply one’s self to, to take in and to swallow so that it becomes a part of your being,
just as you eat food and it becomes a part of your body,
to build body tissue to give your body life.
To live by the words of GOD will give you eternal life.
Mark 8:36
“For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?
Mark 8:34-38
And He summoned the crowd with His disciples, and said to them,
“If anyone wishes to come after Me,
he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me.
For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it,
but whoever loses his life for My sake and the gospel’s will save it.
For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?
For what will a man give in exchange for his soul?
For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels.”
Knowing the what the bible says, being able to quote what the bible says being able to teach what the bible says does not make you a believer in or follower of the LORD your GOD.
This is done by taking it in and making it your life.
Let go of self, let go of this world and its ways,
repent and obey the words of the LORD your GOD.
We are to live by EVERY word that proceeds out of the mouth of GOD.
Let’s take another look at what we have so far:
“MAN SHALL NOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE, BUT ON EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.”
“YOU SHALL NOT PUT THE LORD YOUR GOD TO THE TEST.”
“YOU SHALL WORSHIP THE LORD YOUR GOD, AND SERVE HIM ONLY.”
“You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.”
The LORD your GOD says;
These words, which I am commanding you today, shall be on your heart.
You shall teach them diligently to your sons and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up.
You shall bind them as a sign on your hand and they shall be as frontals on your forehead.
You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.
You shall fear only the LORD your God; and you shall worship Him and swear by His name.
You shall not follow other gods, any of the gods of the peoples who surround you,
You shall not put the LORD your God to the test,
You should diligently keep the commandments of the LORD your God, and His testimonies and His statutes which He has commanded you.
You shall do what is right and good in the sight of the LORD,
Are these things happening in your daily lives?
Christ Jesus said:
“If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.”
Do you truly love Christ Jesus, do you truly love the Lord your GOD?
Who are you then obeying?
The world and its ways, man kind?
Or the words of GOD.
The church in America has made the words of GOD a joke to the world, one thing is spoken on Sundays and Wednesday but a totally different is lived out the rest of the week.
Thinking a bandage on Sunday and Wednesday will make up for the life we live out rest of the week.
And than we wonder why the country is going to hell right before our eyes.
“My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
