<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>WHEN WE DECIDED TO CROSS THE NARROW PATH, WE NEED TO HAVE FAITH, HOPE AND LOVE IN OUR HEARTS.</b></span></div>

<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">GOD CANNOT BE CONFINED BY ANY RELIGION, NATION, COUNTRY, NATIONALITY, OR ANY DIVISION THAT HUMANITY HAS PLACED ON ONE ANOTHER.</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">LOVE SHOULD NOT CREATE DIVISIONS WITH EACH OTHER BUT UNITY.</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">OPPOSITE TO LOVE IS HATE AND ANGER, WHICH HAS CAUSED SO MUCH DIVISIONS IN THIS WORLD.</span></b></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Mark 10:18 "Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. </span></b></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST SIMPLIFIED ALL THE COMMANDMENTS INTO THESE TWO COMMANDMENTS:</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Luke 10:27 He answered: "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'; and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"</span></b></div>

<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">AND THE CENTRAL COMMANDMENT OF GOD IS LOVE.</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">THE ANTICHRIST:</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">1 John 2:22 Who is the liar? It is the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a man is the antichrist--he denies the Father and the Son</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">2 John 1:7 Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">HOW TO RECOGNIZE IF THE SPIRIT IS OF GOD OR THE ANTICHRIST?</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">1 John 4:2 This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God,</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">IF ACKNOWLEDGE JESUS CHRIST REALLY CAME TO FLESH, THE SPIRIT THAT TELLS YOU THIS IS FROM GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">1 Corinthians 12:3 Therefore I tell you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus be cursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit.</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">ANYONE WHO CURSE JESUS IS NOT FROM GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">WHOEVER SAYS JESUS IS LORD IS INSPIRED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT.</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">1 John 2:23 No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also.</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">IF WE ACKNOWLEDGE JESUS AS THE SON OF GOD, WE ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE THE FATHER, WHO IS GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">1 John 5:1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well.</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;">IF WE BELIEVE AND LOVE CHRIST AS BORN OF GOD, WE LOVE THE FATHER, WHO IS GOD, AS WELL.</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />

<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">2 Timothy 3:2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy,</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">PEOPLE BY NATURE ARE SELFISH, LOVERS OF MONEY, BOASTFUL, PROUD, ABUSIVE, DISOBEDIENT TO PARENTS, UNGRATEFUL, UNHOLY.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Philippians 2:21 For everyone looks out for his own interests, not those of Jesus Christ.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">IT IS MAN'S NATURE THAT EACH WILL LOOK OUT FOR HIS OWN INTEREST.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">1 Corinthians 10:24 Nobody should seek his own good, but the good of others.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THIS IS WHAT GOD WANTS US TO DO- LOOK FOR OTHER'S GOOD, NOT THE GOOD OF OURSELVES.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Philippians 2:4 Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">IF WE LOOK AT OUR OWN INTEREST, LET US ALSO LOOK ON THE INTEREST OF OTHER PEOPLE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Romans 15:2 Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">WE OUGHT TO PLEASE OUR NEIGHBOR FOR HIS GOOD, AND BUILD HIM UP.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">1 Corinthians 10:33 even as I try to please everybody in every way. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">For I am not seeking my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">LIKE PAUL, I ALSO TRY TO PLEASE OTHERS IN EVERY WAY, SO THAT THEY MAY BE SAVED ALSO.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">BUT OFTEN, THIS IS MISINTERPRETED, AND TO OTHERS, IT RESULTS IN MISUNDERSTANDING.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">1 Corinthians 9:22 To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THIS IS THE REASON THAT OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST SIMPLIFIED THE TEACHINGS, SO THAT EVERYONE MAY HAVE THE CHANCE TO BE SAVED.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THAT IS WHY IT IS NECESSARY FOR THE SERVANTS OF GOD TO MEND AND TO ADAPT WITH OTHER PEOPLE- TO WIN THEM BACK TO GOD.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">WE OUGHT TO ACCEPT THOSE WHOSE FAITH IS WEAK, WITHOUT PASSING JUDGMENT ON DISPUTABLE MATTERS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Romans 15:1 We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">IF WE ARE STRONG IN FAITH, WE OUGHT TO BEAR WITH THE FAILINGS OF THOSE WHO ARE WEAK, AND DO NOT SEEK OUR OWN PLEASURE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Romans 15:7 Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">WE OUGHT TO ACCEPT ONE ANOTHER, JUST AS CHRIST ACCEPTED US, TO BRING PRAISE TO OUR GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">1 Thessalonians 5:14 And we urge you, brothers, warn those who are idle, encourage the timid, help the weak, be patient with everyone.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">WE NEED TO BE PATIENT WITH EVERYONE.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">2 Thessalonians 3:6 In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers, to keep away from every brother who is idle and does not live according to the teaching you received from us.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">IF ANY OF OUR BROTHERS ARE IDLE IN SERVING GOD, AND DO NOT LIVE OR DO THE TEACHINGS YOU HAVE RECEIVED FROM US, IT IS BETTER THAT WE KEEP AWAY FROM THEM.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">2 Thessalonians 3:15 Yet do not regard him as an enemy, but warn him as a brother.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, TO THOSE WHO DO NOTHING IN OUR GROUP, AND STILL LIVE AS THEY PLEASE, THOUGH THEY ARE MEMBERS- WE SHOULD KEEP OUR DISTANCE FROM THEM, THOUGH THEY REMAIN AS OUR BROTHERS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THUS, AS IT IS WRITTEN IN THIS VERSE, I GIVE WARNING TO OUR MEMBERS WHO DO NOT DO THEIR PART IN OUR GROUP, TO DO THEIR PART- FOR WE ARE UNITED TO ONE CAUSE, AND THAT IS TO LIVE AS GOD WANTS US TO LIVE- THROUGH LOVE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">2 Thessalonians 3:7 For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example. We were not idle when we were with you,</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">AS IT IS WITH THE OLD CHURCH, IN PART, IN EVERY WAY EVERYDAY, I DID MY BEST TO BECOME GOOD EXAMPLES TO YOU- EVEN DOING ACCOUNTING TO YOU, AND BEARING THE DETAILS OF WHAT HAS HAPPENED FROM DAY TO DAY- BLOGGING THEM TO BE AN EXAMPLE FOR YOU TO FOLLOW- IN SPIRIT.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">25 But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">26 When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">27 “The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">28 “‘An enemy did this,’ he replied.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">“The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">29 “‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">INTERPRETATION:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">24 Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">IN THE BEGINNING, GOD MADE EVERYTHING GOOD, INCLUDING MAN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">HE CREATED MAN IN HIS IMAGE AND LIKENESS, AND HIS INTENTION IS FOR THE GOOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">25 But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THERE COME A TIME THAT THE WOMAN WHO WAS WITH THE MAN WAS DECEIVED BY THE OLD SERPENT, WHO IS SATAN, AND PLANTED UNTO EVE THE SEED OF CORRUPTION</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">ADAM FOLLOWED EVE, AND FELL OUT OF THE GRACE OF GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THUS, THE WHOLE OF MANKIND FELL UNDER THE POWER OF THE EVIL ONE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">26 When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THUS, MANKIND HAVE ACTIONS ROOTED FROM THE GOODNESS OF GOD, AND ACTS OF MEN THAT ARE ROOTED FROM THE EVIL OF SATAN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">27 “The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THIS IS THEN THE QUESTION OF THE SERVANTS OF GOD, WHY IN SPITE OF BEST EFFORTS, MANKIND WILL FALL INTO SIN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THIS IS THE QUESTION WHY MANKIND HAS EVIL/WICKED TENDENCIES WHEN IN THE BEGINNING, HE WAS CREATED TO BE GOOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">28 “‘An enemy did this,’ he replied.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">IT IS SATAN'S DOING, WHO IS THE ENEMY OF MEN, WHO DID THIS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">WHY? SO THAT HE WOULD BE IN CONTROL OF MEN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">“The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THIS IS THE QUESTION ASKED BY THE SERVANTS OF GOD WHO ARE THE ANGELS AND SPIRITS WHO ARE GIVEN POWER TO HAVE SUCH ABILITIES AS TO REMOVE EVIL TENDENCIES IN MEN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">WILL THEY INTERVENE TO REMOVE EVIL TENDENCIES IN MEN?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">29 “‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">SINCE THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE GOODNESS AND EVIL TENDENCIES ARE CLOSE TOGETHER, AND GOD KNOWS THAT WHEN THE TENDENCY TO DO EVIL IS REMOVED IN MAN, HE MIGHT DIE, AND THE TENDENCY OF MEN TO DO GOOD MAY DIE TOO.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">WHY? THE TENDENCY TO DO GOOD AND THE TENDENCY TO DO EVIL LIES INSIDE ONE'S HEART- OR CORE OF THE HUMAN BEING.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">REMOVING OR UPROOTING THE EVIL TENDENCIES (SUCH AS DESIRES, ANGER, PASSIONS, ETC) WILL RESULT IN THE POSSIBLE DESTRUCTION OF THE CORE OF THE PERSON, WHICH ALSO HAS THE CAPACITY TO DO WHAT IS GOOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THIS MAY RESULT IN KILLING THE PERSON- THUS- IN SUCH INSTANCE, IT IS BETTER TO LET HUMAN BEINGS BE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">30 Let both grow together until the harvest. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">LET MEN CHOOSE THEIR DESTINY- WHETHER THEY BE FOR GOD, OR AGAINST GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’”</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THIS IS THE FINAL JUDGMENT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">IN THE END, THERE WILL BE MEN WHO EITHER HAVE DONE MUCH EVIL IN THEIR LIVES- "THE WEEDS"- AND THEY ARE TO BE GATHERED TO BE BURNED IN HELL.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THOSE WHO HAVE CHOSEN TO LIVE THE LIFE THAT GOD INTENDS FOR US TO LIVE- WHICH IS THE LIFE BASED ON LOVE, THEY ARE THOSE WHO ARE "THE WHEAT"- WHO WILL ENTER INTO GOD'S KINGDOM.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THIS IS ONE OF THE INTERPRETATION OF THIS PARABLE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS THAT WE LET THE WHEAT GROW MORE IN US THAN THE WEEDS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THE WHEAT PLANTED IN OUR SOIL IS GOD'S WORD, WHICH IS GOOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THAT WORD IS CHRIST- WHICH IS THE SON OF GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">HIS CENTRAL COMMANDMENT IS LOVE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, FOR THE WHEAT TO GROW IN US, AND THE WEEDS TO WITHER, WE NEED TO LIVE A LIFE THAT IS BASED OF THE CENTRAL COMMANDMENT OF CHRIST, WHICH IS LOVE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">LET US LOVE ONE ANOTHER, AS CHRIST LOVE US.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THROUGH LOVE, THE WHEAT WILL GROW, AND THE WEEDS WILL WITHER.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">THROUGH LOVING ONE ANOTHER, WE WILL COME NEARER TO GOD, AND BECOME THE WHEAT, AND NOT THE WEEDS.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THE BASIS OF HELPING OTHERS:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">1 Timothy 6:18 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">IT IS GOD'S COMMAND:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">1. TO DO GOOD</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">2. TO BE RICH IN GOOD DEEDS</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">3. TO BE GENEROUS</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">4. TO BE WILLING TO SHARE</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">REGARDING GIVING:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">2 Corinthians 9:7</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THIS IS THE BASIS WHY WE DO NOT ASK FOR REGULAR CONTRIBUTIONS TO ALL OUR MEMBERS, NOR WE ASK MEMBERSHIP FEE FOR MEMBERS OF DEUS(GOD).</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">BUT, BECAUSE WE HELP PEOPLE IN NEED ON A REGULAR BASIS, THE FUNDS THAT WE HAVE ARE EXPERIENCING LOW TO NONE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THESE ARE THE TIMES WE ASK HELP FROM OUR MEMBERS TO HELP US.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">ASKING HELP FROM THE MEMBERS OF THE GROUP/ORGANIZATION/ COMMUNITY/ CHURCH OF GOD IS ALSO DONE BY THOSE WHO SERVE CHRIST IN THE OLD CHURCH.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">INSTANCES IN THE CHURCH WHEN THE CHURCH LEADERS ASKED FOR HELP FROM THE CHURCH:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Philemon 1:20 I do wish, brother, that I may have some benefit from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in Christ.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Romans 16:2 I ask you to receive her in the Lord in a way worthy of the saints and to give her any help she may need from you, for she has been a great help to many people, including me.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THROUGH THESE EXAMPLES, IT IS IMPLIED THAT THOSE WHO SERVE GOD TO DO HIS MISSIONARY WORKS CAN ALSO ASK HELP FROM THE GROUP/ ORGANIZATION/ COMMUNITY/ CHURCH OF GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">WHY THESE HELP IS NEEDED?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THOSE WHO SERVE CHRIST SUFFER MUCH TO DO THE MISSION WORKS SET BY GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, THERE ARE TIMES THAT THE SERVANTS OF GOD ASKS FOR HELP.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">SOME REFERENCE TO THE SUFFERINGS AND SACRIFICES ENDURED BY THOSE WHO FOLLOW CHRIST</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Colossians 1:24 Now I rejoice in what was suffered for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ's afflictions, for the sake of his body, which is the church.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">2 Corinthians 6:10 sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">2 Corinthians 12:15 So I will very gladly spend for you everything I have and expend myself as well. If I love you more, will you love me less?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Philippians 2:17 But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service coming from your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">2 Timothy 1:8 So do not be ashamed to testify about our Lord, or ashamed of me his prisoner. But join with me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God,</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">2 Timothy 2:10 Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they too may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THE SERVANTS OF GOD SUFFER FOR THE GROUP/ ORGANIZATION/ COMMUNITY/ CHURCH/ PEOPLE OF GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THE SUFFERINGS ENDURED BY THE SERVANTS OF GOD WILL BENEFIT THOSE WHO ARE WITHIN THE GROUP/ ORGANIZATION/ COMMUNITY/ CHURCH/ PEOPLE OF GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">IN THE OLD CHRISTIAN CHURCH, THERE ARE REFERENCES TO INSTANCES THAT MEMBERS OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH WHO ARE ABLE TO HELP DID HELP THE SERVANTS OF GOD, AND OTHER BRETHREN WHO ARE SUFFERING.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">INSTANCES THAT THE MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH HAVE HELPED AND REFRESHED THOSE WHO SERVED CHRIST, AND THE LEADERS, OTHER MEMBERS RECEIVED THE HELP:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">1 Corinthians 16:17-18 I was glad when Stephanas, Fortunatus and Achaicus arrived, because they have supplied what was lacking from you.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">For they refreshed my spirit and yours also. Such men deserve recognition.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">2 TIMOTHY 1:16 May the Lord show mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, because he often refreshed me and was not ashamed of my chains.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">2 Corinthians 9:11 You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Romans 16:23 Gaius, whose hospitality I and the whole church here enjoy, sends you his greetings. Erastus, who is the city's director of public works, and our brother Quartus send you their greetings.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Philemon 1:7 Your love has given me great joy and encouragement, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the saints.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Romans 15:26 For Macedonia and Achaia were pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the saints in Jerusalem.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">ADDITIONAL BASIS WHY WE DO MISSION WORKS, OUTREACH, AND HELP TO THE POOR AND THE NEEDY?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Matthew 5:42 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Matthew 25:40 "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">BASIS OF SELLING POSSESSIONS TO GIVE TO THE POOR:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">LUKE 12:33 Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will not be exhausted, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Matthew 19:21 Jesus answered, "If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Luke 18:22 When Jesus heard this, he said to him, "You still lack one thing. Sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">WHY DO WE DOCUMENT WHAT WE DO IN THE MISSION WORKS?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THIS IS TO MAKE THE LIGHT SHINE BEFORE MEN, THAT THEY MAY SEE THESE GOOD WORKS, AND BE THE REASON OF PRAISE FOR GOD THE FATHER IN HEAVEN</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Luke 16:12 And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else's property, who will give you property of your own?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THE FUND FOR THE MISSION WORKS WE RECEIVE IS GIVEN BY THE PEOPLE OF GOD TO HELP OTHERS IN NEED.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">IT IS RIGHTEOUS TO DOCUMENT IT SO THAT PEOPLE KNOW WHERE THE FUNDS GO.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THE PROMISE TO THOSE WHO HAVE HELPED IN HELPING THOSE WHO ARE IN NEED:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">saiah 58:10 and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday.</span></b><br />

<b style="background-color: white; color: lime; font-size: x-large;">IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE AGREE AT SOME POINT WHO CHRIST REALLY IS.</b><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>THIS AGREEMENT WILL HELP US KNOW WHO IS CHRIST AND THE ROLE OF CHRIST IN OUR LIVES.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>THERE ARE MANY CONCEPTS ABOUT CHRIST, AND MANY WILL PRESENT CHRIST DIFFERENTLY WITH ONE ANOTHER.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>THEREFORE, IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT THAT THERE BE AGREEMENTS BETWEEN OUR MEMBERS REGARDING THE IDENTITY OF CHRIST.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>THERE ARE VERSES THAT GIVES US CLUES REGARDING THE TRUE IDENTITY OF CHRIST.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>Colossians 1:15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.</b></span><br />

<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>CHRIST IS THE IMAGE OF THE INVISIBLE GOD, THE FIRSTBORN OVER ALL CREATION.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>THIS CERTAINLY WILL NOT PERTAIN ON THE HUMAN BODY OF JESUS, BUT PERTAINS TO THE SPIRIT INSIDE THE BODY OF JESUS WHEN HE CONDUCTED HIS MISSION HERE ON EARTH.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>FOR THE BODY OF JESUS WAS BORN OF THE VIRGIN NAMED MARY. THEREFORE, IT IS NOT HIS BODY THAT IS FIRSTBORN OVER ALL CREATION, BUT THE SPIRIT WHICH DWELLS IN THE BODY OF JESUS.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.</b></span><br />

<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>CHRIST IS THE ONE AND ONLY SON OF GOD.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>WHO IS THE SON OF GOD PERTAINED HERE? </b></span><br />

<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>John 1:3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.</b></span><br />

<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>Matthew 1:23 "The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel"--which means, "God with us."</b></span><br />

<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>THESE ARE A NUMBER OF BIBLICAL REFERENCES ABOUT THE IDENTITY OF CHRIST IN THE BIBLE.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: lime; font-size: large;"><b>THEREFORE, WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND, THAT JESUS CHRIST IS BOTH THE SON OF MAN AND THE SON OF GOD.</b></span><br />

<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">John 4:24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth."</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">WE WORSHIP GOD IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Psalm 145:18 The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">GOD IS NEAR WHO CALL ON HIM IN TRUTH.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">John 4:23 Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">GOD WANTS US TO WORSHIP GOD IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">HOW DO WE WORSHIP GOD IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">John 14:16- 20 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever--the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH REFERS TO THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHICH THE SON ASKS OF THE FATHER, TO GUIDE THE FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">BECAUSE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, THOUGH THE WORLD WILL NOT SEE CHRIST ANYMORE IN THE FLESH, THOSE WHO BELIEVE HIM AND COME TO ACCEPT HIM WILL SEE HIS PRESENCE, BECAUSE THOSE WHO HAVE ACCEPTED CHRIST BECOMES UNITED WITH CHRIST.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, IN THE ACCEPTANCE OF THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH- THE HOLY SPIRIT, THE ACCEPTANCE OF THE TRUTH, WHICH IS CHRIST ( John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.)</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">ONE CAN WORSHIP GOD IN TRUTH AND IN THE SPIRIT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Romans 8:26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THE HOLY SPIRIT INTERCEDES FOR US, FOR WE HAVE WEAKNESSES, AND EVEN IN OUR PRAYER WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT WE OUGHT TO PRAY. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THE SPIRIT INTERCEDES ON OUR BEHALF WITH GROANS THAT WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">GROANS IN FILIPINO/TAGALOG MAY MEAN THE FOLLOWING:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">1. HIBIK</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">2. DAING</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">3. HALINGHING</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THESE ARE SOUNDS, INCOMPREHENSIBLE, WHICH WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THE NEAREST EQUIVALENT IN THE PHILIPPINE ESOTERIC TEACHINGS FOR THIS TERM IS "INDAYOG" OR THE WAY OF PRONUNCIATION OF CERTAIN WORDS THAT CANNOT BE EXPRESSED IN THE WRITTEN LANGUAGE COMPLETELY.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">1 Corinthians 2:13 This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE ONE WHO WILL TEACH US REGARDING SPIRITUAL TRUTHS IN SPIRITUAL WORDS. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">FOR THE SAME SPIRIT IS NEEDED TO INTERPRET THE WORDS OF GOD, NOT HUMAN WISDOM.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, TO WORSHIP GOD IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH, WE NEED THE HOLY SPIRIT TO BE WITH US, TO INTERCEDE ON OUR BEHALF, AND THAT WE ARE UNITED WITH CHRIST JESUS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">Jude 1:20 But you, dear friends, build yourselves up in your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">IF WE PRAY, WE NEED TO PRAY IN THE HOLY SPIRIT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, IT IS NECESSARY TO HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT WITH US TO BE ABLE TO PRAY AND WORSHIP GOD IN SPIRIT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">TO WORSHIP GOD IN TRUTH, WE NEED TO BECOME ONE WITH THE BODY OF CHRIST, SO THAT CHRIST, WHO IS TRUTH, WOULD MEDIATE FOR US TO THE FATHER, TOGETHER WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, TO BE ABLE TO WORSHIP GOD IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH, WE NEED CHRIST, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">HOW DO WE KNOW THAT CHRIST AND THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WITH US?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">1 John 4:16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">WE KNOW THAT GOD LIVES IN US AND WE LIVE IN GOD THROUGH LIVING A LIFE OF LOVE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">1 John 4:12 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">LOVING ONE ANOTHER IS A DEFINITE SIGN THAT GOD LIVES IN US AND HIS LOVE IS MADE COMPLETE IN US.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">IN THE END, IT IS LOVE THAT REALLY MATTERS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">MAY WE LIVE OUR LIVES LOVING ONE ANOTHER.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;">MAY WE LOVE ONE ANOTHER AS CHRIST LOVED US.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />

<b style="background-color: white;"><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">WHO DOES GOD CUT-OFF?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">Psalm 37:9 For evil men will be cut off, but those who hope in the LORD will inherit the land.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">EVIL MEN WILL BE CUT OFF FROM GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">Psalm 37:22 those the LORD blesses will inherit the land, but those he curses will be cut off.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">THOSE WHOM GOD CURSE WILL BE CUT OFF.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">Psalm 37:28 For the LORD loves the just and will not forsake his faithful ones. They will be protected forever, but the offspring of the wicked will be cut off;</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">THE OFFSPRING OF THE WICKED WILL BE CUT OFF.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">Psalm 37:38 But all sinners will be destroyed; the future of the wicked will be cut off.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">THE FUTURE OF THE WICKED WILL BE CUT OFF.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">SINNERS WILL BE DESTROYED.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">WHO AMONG US DO NOT SIN?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">NOT ONE OF US IS FREE FROM SIN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, WE WILL BE DESTROYED.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">UNLESS, WE CHANGE FOR THE BETTER:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">Psalm 34:14 Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">THOSE WHO DO EVIL BEFORE SHOULD TURN FROM EVIL AND DO GOOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">ONE MUST SEEK PEACE AND PURSUE IT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">AS A SINNER, HOW CAN WE BE SAVED FROM DESTRUCTION?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">Romans 10:9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">WE FIRST MUST BELIEVE IN THE LORDSHIP OF CHRIST JESUS, THAT GOD RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">WHY? </span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">Romans 14:9 For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">CHRIST WILL NOT BECOME LORD OF BOTH DEAD AND THE LIVING IF HE DID NOT DIE AND DID NOT RESURRECT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">1 Thessalonians 4:14 We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, IF WE BELIEVE THAT CHRIST REALLY DIED AND ROSE AGAIN FROM THE DEAD, WHEN WE FALL ASLEEP (DIE) IN DOING WHAT HE COMMANDED IN OUR LIFE, WE WILL BE WITH HIM THROUGH GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">1 Thessalonians 5:10 He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">AND BECAUSE CHRIST DIED FOR US, THERE IS A CHANCE FOR US TO LIVE WITH HIM IN SPIRIT WHETHER WE ARE CURRENTLY ALIVE OR DEAD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">WHEN WE COME INTO REPENTANCE, AND ACCEPT THE SALVATION OFFERED BY CHRIST, WE ENTER INTO A NEW COVENANT WITH GOD, AND WE ARE BORN INTO A NEW LIFE WITH CHRIST.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">THOSE WHO ENTER INTO THE NEW COVENANT IS BORN OF GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">1 John 3:9 No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">WHEN ANYONE IS BORN OF GOD, HE WILL NOT CONTINUE TO SIN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">THIS IS SO BECAUSE GOD'S SEED IS IN HIM, AND HE WILL NOT GO ON SINNING, FOR HE HAS BEEN BORN OF GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">1 John 3:6 No one who lives in him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen him or known him.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">THOSE WHO LIVE IN CHRIST WILL EVENTUALLY STOP SINNING.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">1 John 5:4 for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">WHEN ONE IS BORN OF GOD, HE WILL OVERCOME THE WORLD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">HE WILL OVERCOME THE TENDENCY TO SIN EVENTUALLY.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">1 John 5:18 We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the one who was born of God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">THOSE WHO ARE BORN OF GOD WILL NOT CONTINUE TO SIN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;">WHY? GOD KEEPS HIM SAFE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />

<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">2 Corinthians 3:6 He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant--not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THERE IS A NEW COVENANT WITH GOD, WHICH IS SPIRITUAL IN NATURE, AND NOT OF THE LETTER.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THE LETTER KILLS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THE SPIRIT GIVES LIFE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Hebrews 10:16 "This is the covenant I will make with them after that time, says the Lord. I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds."</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THE NEW COVENANT IS SPIRITUAL IN NATURE, THAT GOD WILL PUT IT IN THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF THOSE WHO ENTERED IT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Romans 5:10 For if, when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">WHEN WE ARE RECONCILED WITH GOD THROUGH THE DEATH OF THE SON OF GOD, WE WILL BE SAVED THROUGH HIS RESURRECTION.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />

<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Hebrews 9:15 For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance--now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">SINCE THE LETTER OF THE LAW HAS MADE PEOPLE UNRIGHTEOUS, THERE IS A NECESSITY FOR A NEW COVENANT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">CHRIST DIED FOR US AS RANSOM TO SET US FREE FROM THE OLD COVENANT, AND WE ENTER INTO A NEW COVENANT WITH GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Hebrews 8:13 By calling this covenant "new," he has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and aging will soon disappear.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, BECAUSE OF THE NEW COVENANT, THE FIRST COVENANT BECOME OBSOLETE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Hebrews 8:6 But the ministry Jesus has received is as superior to theirs as the covenant of which he is mediator is superior to the old one, and it is founded on better promises.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THE NEW COVENANT IS SUPERIOR TO THE OLD ONE, AND IS FOUNDED ON BETTER PROMISES.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">HEBREWS 8:7 For if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been sought for another.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THERE ARE FLAWS IN THE EFFECT OF THE FIRST COVENANT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Galatians 2:16 know that a man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by observing the law, because by observing the law no one will be justified.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THE LAW REFERRED HERE IS THE FIRST COVENANT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THE FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST IS A PREREQUISITE IN ENTERING THE NEW COVENANT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THE FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST WILL RESULT IN ENTERING THE NEW COVENANT, WHEREIN THE PROVISIONS THEREOF IS NOT OF THE LETTER OF THE LAW, BUT BY THE SPIRIT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Acts 13:39 Through him everyone who believes is justified from everything you could not be justified from by the law of Moses.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">AS A BELIEVER OF CHRIST JESUS, WE BECOME JUSTIFIED BY THE SPIRIT, NOT BY THE STANDARDS OF THE LAW OF MOSES.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Romans 3:20 Therefore no one will be declared righteous in his sight by observing the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of sin.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">FOR NO ONE WILL BE RIGHTEOUS IN OBSERVING THE OLD COVENANT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THE OLD COVENANT MADE PEOPLE CONSCIOUS OF SIN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Hebrews 7:19 (for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THE LAW OF MOSES MADE NOTHING PERFECT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, THE NEW COVENANT IS NEEDED FOR A BETTER HOPE TO BE INTRODUCED, SO THAT WE MAY DRAW NEAR TO GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Galatians 3:19 What, then, was the purpose of the law? </span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">It was added because of transgressions until the Seed to whom the promise referred had come. The law was put into effect through angels by a mediator.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THE LAWS OF THE FIRST COVENANT WAS MADE BECAUSE OF THE TRANSGRESSIONS OF THE PEOPLE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">THIS WAS PUT INTO PLACE UNTIL THE COMING OF THE SEED- WHICH IS THE PROMISED MESSIAH.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">WHEN THE MESSIAH COME, THE OLD COVENANT WAS REPLACED WITH THE NEW.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Hebrews 7:27 Unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all when he offered himself.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Hebrews 10:14 because by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Hebrews 10:10 And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">BY THE SACRIFICE OF CHRIST JESUS, WE ARE CLEANSED FROM OUR SINS, AND WE HAVE BEEN MADE HOLY.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">WHEN WE ENTER INTO THE NEW COVENANT WITH CHRIST, WHAT ARE WE EXPECTED TO DO?</span></b><br />

<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;">Ephesians 5:1-2 Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-color: black; color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />

<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>GIFT OF TONGUES (LANGUAGES), MYSTERIES, KNOWLEDGE:</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>1 Corinthians 12:10 to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THEREARE GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT CALLED:</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>1. MIRACULOUS POWERS</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>2. PROPHECY</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>3. SPEAKING IN DIFFERENT KINDS OF TONGUES</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>4. INTERPRETATION OF TONGUES</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>1 Corinthians 13:1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THERE IS AN ABILITY OF SPEAKING THE TONGUES OF MEN AND ANGELS</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>1 Corinthians 13:2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THERE ARE GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT CALLED:</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>1. PROPHECY</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>2. ABILITY TO FATHOM ALL MYSTERIES AND KNOWLEDGE</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>3. FAITH</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>Acts 2:4 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THIS EVENT TELLS THAT THERE IS AN ABILITY CALLED SPEAKING IN OTHER TONGUES AS THE SPIRIT ENABLED OTHERS.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>1 Corinthians 12:28 And in the church God has appointed first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, also those having gifts of healing, those able to help others, those with gifts of administration, and those speaking in different kinds of tongues.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>IN THE CHURCH OF GOD, THERE ARE DIFFERENT ROLES:</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>1. APOSTLES</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>2. PROPHETS</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>3. TEACHERS</b></span><br />

<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>7. THOSE WITH GIFT OF ADMINISTRATION</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>8. SPEAKING IN DIFFERENT KINDS OF TONGUES</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>1 Corinthians 12:30 Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret?</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THERE IS SEPARATION OF GIFTS AND NOT ALL CONTAIN THE GIFTS.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>1 Corinthians 14:27 If anyone speaks in a tongue, two--or at the most three--should speak, one at a time, and someone must interpret.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>WHEN THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO SPEAKS IN TONGUE, THERE SHOULD BE SOMEONE WHO WILL INTERPRET THESE.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>1 Corinthians 14:18 I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>PAUL HIMSELF EXCELS IN THE GIFT OF TONGUES MORE THAN OTHERS AT THAT TIME.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>WHAT IS MY POINT?</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THERE ARE CERTAIN GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT CALLED GIFT OF TONGUES, LANGUAGES, INTERPRETATIONS OF TONGUES, AND THE ABILITY TO FATHOM ALL MYSTERIES AND KNOWLEDGE.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THIS IS RECOGNIZED BY PAUL IN HIS WRITINGS.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THEREFORE, THEY ARE NOT FROM THE DEVIL BUT FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>NOW, SUPREME TO THESE GIFTS IS LOVE.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>LOVING ONE ANOTHER AS GOD HAVE LOVED US IS SUPREME OVER THESE.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>REGARDING ORATIONS.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>WHAT ARE ORATIONS, FORMULA, AND POWER WORDS?</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THEY ARE WORDS WITH A CERTAIN EFFECT AND POWER.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>ARE THEY EVIL IN THEMSELVES?</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>IF THE WORD IS EVIL BY ITSELF, THEN, GOD WOULD NOT HAVE SURELY PUT THE WORD IN THE BEGINNING.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>IF WORDS ARE EVIL, THEN GOD SHOULD NOT HAVE PLACED THE WORD WITH HIM.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>IF WORDS ARE EVIL, GOD SHOULD NOT HAVE BESTOWED GODHOOD TO THE WORD.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>YET, WHY IS THIS WRITTEN?</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>IT SHOWS THE NATURE OF WORDS.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THE FIRST NATURE OF WORDS IS IT IS THE EXPRESSION OF HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>John 1:14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>GOD EVEN INCARNATED THE WORD AND MADE IT DWELL AMONG US AS JESUS CHRIST.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THEREFORE, IN THE BEGINNING, THE NATURE OF WORDS ARE GOOD.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>WHAT MADE THE WORDS EVIL?</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>Matthew 7:17 Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>Matthew 12:35 The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>Luke 6:45 The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>GOOD PERSONS WILL BRING GOOD THINGS OUT OF HIS HEART.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>EVIL MEN BRING EVIL THINGS OUT OF HIS HEART.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>Proverbs 10:11 The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life, but violence overwhelms the mouth of the wicked.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>Matthew 15:18 But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these make a man 'unclean.'</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>Matthew 15:19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THEREFORE, THE WORDS SPOKEN HAS ITS EVIL ROOTS FROM THE INSIDE OF THE HEART OF MAN.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>IF THE MAN HAS EVIL INTENTS IN THE WORDS HE PRONOUNCE, HE IS EMPOWERING HIS WORDS WITH EVIL.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>IF THE MAN HAS GOOD INTENTIONS IN THE WORDS HE PRONOUNCE, HE IS EMPOWERING HIS WORDS WITH GOOD.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>IN SUM, WHAT DETERMINES THE QUALITY OF THE POWER OF THE WORDS IS WHAT HEART IT CAME FROM.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THEREFORE, WE CANNOT OUTRIGHT SAY ANY ORATIONS, FORMULA WORDS, OR FORMULAS ARE EVIL IN THEMSELVES.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>EXAMPLE:</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>JESUS HOC SALVATOR</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THIS IS AN ORATION USED IN HEALING.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THIS MEANS JESUS IS THE SAVIOR.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>IF WE SAY ORATIONS ARE EVIL, THEN JESUS THE SAVIOR IS EVIL.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>ANOTHER ORATION:</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>AL EL SHADDAI ALOHAYIM ADONAI AGLA</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THIS MEANS GOD, WHO IS POWERFUL, THE ELOHIM, THE LORD, WHO IS MIGHTY FOREVER.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>IF WE SAY ALL ORATIONS ARE EVIL, THEN GOD IS EVIL.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>ANOTHER ORATION:</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>CRISTUS SANCTA TRINITAS OMO DAUB JESUS</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>CRISTUS- CHRIST</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>SANCTA- HOLY</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>TRINITAS- THREE PERSONS</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>OMO- THOU ART INDESTRUCTABLE ROCK</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>DAUB- WHO IS TRIUMPHANT</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>JESUS- JESUS</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>IS THIS EVIL? IF ALL ORATIONS ARE EVIL, THEN CHRIST, THE HOLY THREE PERSONS (FATHER, SON, HOLY SPIRIT)., THE INDESTRUCTABLE ROCK, THE TRIUMPHANT ONE, OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS ALSO CONCLUDED AS EVIL.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>WHAT DOES THIS POST TELLS US?</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>WE SUSPEND OUR JUDGMENT REGARDING ORATIONS, FORMULAE, OR POWER WORDS.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>WHY? THE ONE WHO CAN DISCERN THESE WORDS FAIRLY ARE PEOPLE GIVEN BY THE SPIRIT TO INTERPRET THE MEANINGS OF TONGUES (INTERPRETATION OF THESE WORDS), AND THOSE WITH THE ABILITY TO FATHOM MYSTERIES AND KNOWLEDGE.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>THEREFORE, IT IS BEST THAT A FOLLOWER OF GOD WOULD INSTEAD FOLLOW THE WILL OF GOD WHICH IS LOVING ONE ANOTHER, AND AVOID THE PERILS OF JUDGING OR BEING A JUDGE- FOR JUDGMENT IS UPON THOSE WHO ASSUME THE POSITION OF JUDGMENT.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>WHAT IS ANOTHER WAY TO ASCERTAIN THAT THE SPIRIT IS FROM GOD?</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>1 John 4:2 This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God,</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT JESUS CHRIST HAS COME IN THE FLESH AND HE IS FROM GOD.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>I BELIEVE THAT HE IS THE WORD OF GOD, THE WISDOM OF GOD, AND THE POWER OF GOD.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>I BELIEVE HE IS THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD, AND THROUGH UNITY WITH HIM WE BECOME PART OF HIS BODY.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>I BELIEVE HE IS THE HEAD, AND THOSE WHO UNITED WITH HIM ARE PARTS OF HIS BODY, WHO SHOULD FUNCTION FOR THE GREATER GOOD OF MANKIND.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>I BELIEVE IN HIS LOVE, AND THAT HIS CENTRAL COMMANDMENT IS LOVE.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-size: large;"><b>I BELIEVE THAT THE SPIRIT OF HIS COMMANDMENTS IS LOVE, AND IF WE LIVE OUR LIFE IN LOVE, WE ARE IN UNITY WITH HIS COMMANDS AND WILL.</b></span><br />

<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">2 Corinthians 4:4 Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don't believe. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don't understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">OUR WORLD IS UNDER SATAN, AND ALL THAT IS IN IT IS UNDER HIS POWER.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">THAT IS THE REASON WHY IT IS SO HARD TO DO WHAT IS GOOD, AND TO LIVE A LIFE OF LOVE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">HE WILL NOT JUST GIVE UP EASILY HIS BEING GOD OVER US.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">HE WILL DO EVERYTHING IN HIS POWER TO MAINTAIN US UNDER HIM.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, IF EVER ANYONE IN THE GROUP WILL FALL INTO DISBELIEF, AND WILL NOT HELP US DO WHAT IS GOOD, I WILL UNDERSTAND.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">SINCE SATAN IS GOD OF THIS WORLD, AND MANY PEOPLE ARE UNDER THIS GOD, I UNDERSTAND YOU.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">I PRAY THAT YOU MAY BE DELIVERED FROM HIS HANDS THROUGH GOD'S MERCY AND COMPASSION.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">BUT I THINK ONLY A FEW WILL BE ABLE TO MANAGE TO ESCAPE FROM HIS GRASP.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">BECAUSE HE EXERCISES MASSIVE POWER IN THIS WORLD, PEOPLE WILL MORE OFTEN CHOOSE THE EASY WAY- SERVING HIM, RATHER THAN SERVING GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">MAY GOD HAVE MERCY AND COMPASSION ON THIS WORLD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">IT IS INDEED A PITIFUL STATE WE ARE IN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">THE MESSAGE OF GOD IS LOVE. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #674ea7; font-size: large;">THE COMMANDMENT OF GOD IS TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #674ea7; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #674ea7; font-size: large;">THIS IS WHAT SATAN WANTS TO BE ERADICATED FROM US- LOVING ONE ANOTHER. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #674ea7; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #674ea7; font-size: large;">THAT IS WHY THERE IS SO MUCH HATE, ANGER AND INJUSTICE IN THIS WORLD. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #674ea7; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #674ea7; font-size: large;">IT IS THE POWER OF SATAN WHICH MAINTAINS THE WORLD IN SUCH A MISERABLE CONDITION.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">ONLY THE LOVE OF GOD CAN FREE US.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">ONLY A LIFE BASED ON LOVE CAN RESIST SATAN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">ONLY THROUGH LOVING ONE ANOTHER CAN HELP LOOSEN THE POWER OF SATAN OVER MANKIND.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />

<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">I pray to God that may His mercy and compassion spread throughout our world.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">Our world needs much healing. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">Our world is impoverished not only materially but also spiritually.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">Materially- because there is the presence of a large number of people in poverty.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">Spiritually- because mankind is suffering of poverty of love, compassion and mercy.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">May the hearts of mankind be inspired with love, compassion, and mercy.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">May people be inspired to act in love, compassion, and mercy.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">May God turn the hearts of stone to hearts of flesh- that there be more people who would spread love, compassion, and mercy.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">May God shine the light of His love to mankind, that there may be more people who will impart this light, and inspire people to be compassionate, to be merciful, and loving.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">When men live love, compassion, and mercy, it follows that material poverty will become lessened through the acts of kindness from those who can help.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">I pray that the will of God may happen in this world...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">May love, compassion, and mercy help to accomplish the will of God in this world...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">God desires the good for mankind...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">Mankind will live better when our lives will be based on love, mercy and compassion.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">I pray to God for these, so that the world will become a better place for us as time passes by.</span></b><br />

<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>There are many instances in life that people accuse us, say all manner of evil against us, and blame us for the faults we did not do.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>People at times are wicked and evil that they will destroy us in every possible way just to vent their anger against us.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>The initial response of many is to be angry, to fight off these people, and to destroy/ neutralize these people before they destroy you.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>But when we are walking God's path,</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>we forgive them.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>We pray for them.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>We bless them.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>For once, we are like them.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>But when we have submitted to God's will,</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>we forgive others, we love others.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>Even our enemies we forgive and we love.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>For our residence in this world is temporary.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>We are citizens of the Kingdom of God.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>Therefore, as citizens of that Kingdom, we follow the supreme command: LOVE ONE ANOTHER</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>Whether they are friends or foe, we love them.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>This we do because we love God, who created us all.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>We live in this world of limitations, and we are subjects to many weaknesses.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>We often make mistakes.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>We often sin.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>That is why we are commanded to forgive and to love.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>For God understands our limitations and weaknesses, God forgives us.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>God loves us in spite of all our limitations and weaknesses.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>We in turn, have to forgive others, and love them.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>This is the command God gave us: </b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>love one another, forgive one another.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #6fa8dc; font-size: large;"><b>May God help us live love and forgiveness.</b></span><br />

<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">Romans 8:15 For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, "Abba, Father."</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">Galatians 4:6 Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, "Abba, Father."</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">WHEN WE RECEIVED THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST IN OUR HEARTS, WE BECAME SONS OF GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">WHEN WE RECEIVE THE SPIRIT OF THE SON OF GOD IN OUR HEARTS, WE BECOME UNITED WITH THE SON, THEREFORE, WE BECOME PARTS OF THE BODY OF THE SON.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">1 Corinthians 12:27 Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">AS MEMBERS OF THE BODY OF CHRIST, WE ARE UNITED IN CHRIST.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">AS CHRIST IS THE SON OF GOD, WE TOO, AS PARTS OF THE BODY OF CHRIST, BECOME SONS OF GOD TOO.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">Romans 12:5 so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">AS MEMBERS OF ONE BODY OF CHRIST, WE BECOME UNITED WITH EACH OTHER, AND BECAUSE OF THIS, WE, AS MEMBERS OF THAT SAME BODY, BELONG WITH ONE ANOTHER.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">IN THIS UNITY WITH CHRIST, WE BECAME CHILDREN OF GOD.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">AS CHILDREN OF GOD, WE CALL TO GOD, AS "ABBA".</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">THE NAME "ABBA" REPRESENTS THAT GOD IS OUR FATHER.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">WE BECAME ACCEPTED AS CHILDREN OF GOD WHEN WE ACCEPTED GOD'S ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">1 Corinthians 12:12 The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">WE BECAME THE PARTS OF THE BODY OF CHRIST, AND EACH OF US ARE UNITED IN CHRIST, AND WE ARE CHILDREN OF GOD BECAUSE OF BEING A PART OF THE BODY OF CHRIST.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">1 Corinthians 12:28-31 And in the church God has appointed first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, also those having gifts of healing, those able to help others, those with gifts of administration, and those speaking in different kinds of tongues. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">But eagerly desire the greater gifts. And now I will show you the most excellent way.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">AS PARTS OF THE BODY OF CHRIST, AND AS MEMBERS OF HIS GROUP/ORGANIZATION, WE HAVE ROLES AS MEMBERS OF HIS GROUP/ORGANIZATION.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">OUR ROLE IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE GIFTS GOD HAS GIVEN US.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">NOT ALL WILL HAVE THE SAME GIFTS, BUT DIFFERENT GIFTS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">WITH THE GIFTS WE HAVE RECEIVED FROM GOD, MAY WE DO WHAT IS GOOD IN EVERY OPPORTUNITY TO DO SO.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">IT IS THE WAY WE FUNCTION AS MEMBERS OF THE BODY OF CHRIST.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">REGARDING THE WAY TO PROCEED AS A MEMBER OF GOD'S ORGANIZATION, THE MOST EXCELLENT WAY IS THROUGH BASING OUR LIVES IN LOVE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">1 CORINTHIANS 13:1-13</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">For we know in part and we prophesy in part, </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">AS GOD'S CHILDREN, WHO ARE MEMBERS OF THE BODY OF CHRIST, WHO ARE MEMBERS OF DEUS(GOD), MAY WE LIVE OUR LIVES BASED ON THE GREATEST OF ALL THE VIRTUES- WHICH IS LOVE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">1 John 4:16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">GOD IS LOVE. WHOEVER LIVES IN LOVE LIVES IN GOD, AND GOD IN HIM.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">1 John 4:12 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">LET US LOVE ONE ANOTHER.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">THROUGH LOVING ONE ANOTHER, GOD LIVES IN US, AND HIS LOVE IS MADE COMPLETE WITHIN US.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: large;">MAY WE LOVE ONE ANOTHER FOR THE LOVE OF OUR GOD, WHO IS "ABBA", OUR FATHER, AND FOR THE LOVE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Proverbs 4:7 Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THIS VERSE NOTES THE SUPREMACY OF WISDOM.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">UNDERSTANDING IS VERY ESSENTIAL, THAT THOUGH IT MAY COST ALL THAT WE HAVE, WE HAVE TO GET IT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Proverbs 23:23 Buy the truth and do not sell it; get wisdom, discipline and understanding.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THIS VERSE EMPHASIZE THAT WE BUY TRUTH, AND THIS TRUTH WE DO NOT SELL.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THIS VERSE ALSO STATE THAT WE GET WISDOM, DISCIPLINE, AND UNDERSTANDING.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">WHAT TRUTH WE NEED TO BUY AND DO NOT SELL?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">JESUS IS THE TRUTH WE NEED TO BUY AND DO NOT SELL.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">HOW DO WE BUY THIS TRUTH?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Matthew 13:44 "The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Matthew 13:46 When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">WE BUY IT WITH ALL THAT WE HAVE, AND NEVER SELL IT....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">WHAT DO WE MEAN BY SELLING THE TRUTH?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Matthew 26:15 and asked, "What are you willing to give me if I hand him over to you?" So they counted out for him thirty silver coins.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Matthew 10:4 Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">WE SELL THE TRUTH BY THE BETRAYAL OF THE TRUTH.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">WHEN WE BETRAY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, WE SELL HIM, BECAUSE HE IS THE TRUTH.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">HOW DO WE BETRAY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Hebrews 6:4-6 </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age, if they fall away, to be brought back to repentance, because to their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THIS IS THE REAL BETRAYAL OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BOUGHT THE TRUTH (WHO HAVE ACCEPTED OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, AND GAVE UP ALL THAT THEY HAVE FOR CHRIST), AND SOLD THE TRUTH (AFTER ATTAINING TO CHRIST, AND THEY FALL AWAY- AND ARE LOST).</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">IT IS LIKE THE BETRAYAL OF JUDAS ISCARIOT TO OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THIS IS THE DEEPER MEANING OF THIS SCRIPTURE...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">HOW OFTEN DO WE SELL THE TRUTH (OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST) AFTER BUYING THE TRUTH (ATTAINING TO OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST)?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Hebrews 10:26 If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left,</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">AFTER RECEIVING THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH (WHICH IS ACCEPTANCE OF CHRIST, AND HAVE RECEIVED THE BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT,</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">IF WE DELIBERATELY SIN- MEANING, WE INTEND AND WE WILL TO SIN....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THIS IS SELLING OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">AS WE INTENTIONALLY SIN, THERE IS NO SACRIFICE LEFT FOR SINS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">1 John 5:16 If anyone sees his brother commit a sin that does not lead to death, he should pray and God will give him life. I refer to those whose sin does not lead to death. There is a sin that leads to death. I am not saying that he should pray about that.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THE SINS THAT NOT LEAD TO DEATH MEANS THE SINS THAT WE COMMIT UNINTENTIONALLY, OR BECAUSE OF OUR OWN WEAKNESSES AS HUMAN BEINGS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">OUR BODY IS SUBJECT TO TEMPTATIONS, WEAKNESSES, DESIRES AND CRAVINGS AND THAT THERE ARE TIMES REALLY THAT WE CANNOT AVOID SINNING.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">GOD UNDERSTANDS THE FRAILTY OF OUR NATURE AND PREDISPOSITION TO SIN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THE SINS NOT COMMITTED WILLFULLY CAN BE FORGIVEN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">BUT SINS WE COMMIT WITH FULL CONSENT OF OUR HEARTS, AND FULL RESIGNATION OF OUR WILL, DECIDING TO SIN WILLFULLY, THESE ARE THE SINS THAT LEAD TO DEATH.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, THE JUDGE OF THIS IS GOD, WHO CAN READ THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF PEOPLE, AND KNOW OUR TRUE INTENTIONS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">UNLESS WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO READ THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF PEOPLE, WE CANNOT JUDGE WITH FULL CERTAINTY IF THE SIN IS COMMITTED WILLFULLY OR UNINTENTIONALLY.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">BECAUSE OF THIS LIMITATIONS, THERE IS THE PROVISION IN THE SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS THIS:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Matthew 7:1 "Do not judge, or you too will be judged.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">SINCE WE POSSESS LIMITATIONS, AND WE TOO COMMIT SIN, WE ARE BEING PROHIBITED FROM JUDGING OTHERS UNLESS WE WANT TO BE JUDGED TOO.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Romans 14:10 You, then, why do you judge your brother? Or why do you look down on your brother? For we will all stand before God's judgment seat.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">WHO CAN STAND UP TO GOD'S JUDGMENT, USING THE STANDARDS THAT WE USE ON OTHERS?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Luke 6:37 "Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THOSE WHO DO NOT JUDGE WILL NOT BE JUDGED.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THOSE WHO DO NOT CONDEMN WILL NOT BE CONDEMNED.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THOSE WHO FORGIVE WILL BE FORGIVEN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THIS VERSE IS THE KEY FOR US TO BE ABLE TO STAND UP IN GOD'S JUDGMENT WITHOUT FEAR OR WORRY OF BEING CONVICTED.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">WE DO NOT JUDGE, WE DO NOT CONDEMN, AND WE FORGIVE.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Romans 14:13 Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother's way.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">INSTEAD OF BEING A JUDGE OF OTHERS, LET US NOT BECOME AN OBSTACLE IN THE WAY OF OUR BRETHREN.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">1 Corinthians 4:5 Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait till the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of men's hearts. At that time each will receive his praise from God.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">WE OUGHT NOT TO JUDGE ON ANYTHING BEFORE THE TIME THAT OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST COMES, WHERE CHRIST WILL BRING TO LIGHT EVERYTHING THAT IS HIDDEN IN DARKNESS AND WILL EXPOSE THE MOTIVES OF MEN'S HEARTS.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">WHAT WE DO IS THAT WE FORGIVE OTHERS FOR THE WRONG THEY HAVE DONE TO US, AND WE DO NOT CONDEMN ANYONE.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">James 4:11 Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">LIVING A LIFE OF LOVE, BASING ALL OUR INTENTIONS, OUR DEEDS AND ACTIONS IN LOVE IS NECESSARY IN THE FULFILLMENT OF GOD'S COMMANDMENTS.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, WE LOVE AS WE HAVE THE TRUTH OF CHRIST IN US.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">WE DO NOT SELL THE TRUTH- THAT IS- BETRAYING CHRIST AND BETRAYING THE LOVE OF CHRIST WILLFULLY AND INTENTIONALLY.</span></b><br />

<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">IN ATTAINING TO THE TRUTH, WHICH IS ATTAINING CHRIST WITHIN US, WE OUGHT TO GIVE OUR LIVES FOR OUR BRETHREN FOR THE LOVE OF CHRIST.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">HOW DO WE GIVE OUR LIVES FOR OUR BRETHREN? BY LOVING OUR BRETHREN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">THE MISSION WORKS AND CHARITY WORKS THAT WE DO HAS ITS ROOTS IN LOVE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />

<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">IN MY MEDITATION THIS DAY, IT CAME TO MY MIND AND HEART THAT NO ONE IN THE WORLD WHO IS ALIVE AS A HUMAN BEING AT THIS LIFETIME IS WITHOUT SIN...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, SINCE WE ARE ALL SINNERS, WE ARE ALL UNWORTHY OF GOD'S LOVE AND MERCY.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">SINCE WE ARE ALL SINNERS, NOBODY HAS THE RIGHT TO POINT A FINGER ON OTHERS BECAUSE WE NEED SO MUCH SELF CORRECTION THAT WE HAVE TO FOCUS OUR TIME AND EFFORT TO MAKE OURSELVES BETTER BEFORE WE WASTE TIME ON POINTING FINGERS ON OTHERS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, SINCE WE ARE ALL SINNERS, AND NEED FORGIVENESS, IF WE ARE SEEKING GOD'S FORGIVENESS, WE HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO FORGIVE ALL WHO HAVE SINNED AGAINST US.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">IF WE ARE PEOPLE WITH SIN, AND NEEDING FORGIVENESS FROM GOD, WE HAVE A GREAT DEBT TO GOD BECAUSE OF OUR SINS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">FOR OUR SINS TO BE FORGIVEN, WE THEREFORE NEED TO FORGIVE OTHERS IN RETURN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">THOUGH WE ARE UNWORTHY OF GOD'S LOVE BECAUSE WE ARE ALL SINNERS AND TRANSGRESSORS OF GOD'S LAWS, GOD GAVE US LOVE, THROUGH THE SACRIFICE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST- WHO DIED FOR OUR SINS AS REDEMPTION FOR US.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, AS HE DIED FOR OUR SINS, WE ARE IN NEED OF RECONCILIATION WITH GOD THROUGH THE DEATH OF OUR LORD....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">AS WE ARE RECONCILED WITH GOD, WE ARE IN NEED TO BE RECONCILED WITH OUR FELLOW MEN....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, THE BRIDGE OF RECONCILIATION BETWEEN FELLOWMEN IS NONE OTHER BUT LOVE.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">LOVE IS FIRST GIVEN BY GOD TO US.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">IN TURN, WE MUST ALSO LOVE ONE ANOTHER....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">THIS IS THE WAY TO HEAL MANKIND AND OUR WORLD....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">FOR WE ARE ENEMIES OF GOD BEFORE WE BECAME FRIENDS OF GOD....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">AND THE HALLMARK OF BEING A FRIEND OF GOD IS LIVING A LIFE OF LOVE...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">FOR THOSE WHO LOVE FULFILLS ALL THE COMMANDMENTS...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">LOVE IS THE END AND THE MEANS TO HEAL THE WOUNDS OF MANKIND...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">IT STARTS IN LOVING OUR OWN SELVES, LOVING OTHERS, LOVING THE LEAST OF OUR BRETHREN....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">EVENTUALLY, AS OUR UNDERSTANDING AND OUR LOVE INCREASE, WE WILL EVEN LOVE OUR ENEMIES...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">THE FIRST AND FOREMOST ENEMY WE HAVE IS OURSELVES...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">WHY? </span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">BECAUSE OF OUR SELF, WE HAVE DONE MANY EVIL AND SINFUL THINGS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">BECAUSE OF OUR SELF, WE HAVE CAUSED TROUBLE TO ANOTHER SELF.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">BECAUSE OF OUR SELF, WE HAVE BEEN ANGRY, FRUSTRATED, AND HATEFUL.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">BECAUSE OF OUR SELF, WE BECAME HATEFUL OF OTHERS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">BECAUSE OF OUR SELF, WE PUT THE BLAME OF OTHERS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">BECAUSE OF OUR SELF, WE HAVE DONE MANY WRONGS TO PRESERVE IT.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">BECAUSE OF THIS SELF, WE HAVE LEARNED TO MALTREAT OTHERS FOR SELF GAIN.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, THE FIRST ENEMY IS OUR SELF....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">THE SELF CAN BE REFORMED BY GOD'S LOVE...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">GOD'S LOVE ENTAILS LOVING OTHERS AS WE LOVE OURSELVES.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">THEREFORE, HOW DO WE LOVE OURSELVES?</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">WE WANT RESPECT- THEREFORE, WE GIVE RESPECT TO OTHERS....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">WE WANT KINDNESS- THEREFORE, WE GIVE KINDNESS TO OTHERS....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">WE WANT HELP- THEREFORE, WE HELP OTHERS....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">WE WANT MERCY- THEREFORE- WE GIVE MERCY TO OTHERS....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">WE WANT COMPASSION- THEREFORE, WE GIVE COMPASSION TO OTHERS....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">WE WANT RECOGNITION- THEREFORE, WE GIVE RECOGNITION ON OTHERS....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">WE WANT FORGIVENESS- THEREFORE, WE FORGIVE OTHERS....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">WE WANT UNDERSTANDING- THEREFORE, WE GIVE UNDERSTANDING FOR OTHERS...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">WHATEVER WE WANT TO BE DONE TO US, WE DO TO OTHER....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">WHATEVER WE DO NOT WANT OTHERS TO DO TO US, WE DO NOT DO TO OTHERS....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">IN THIS WORLD, FULL OF ANGER, HATRED AND EVIL, THE HOPE FOR THE CURE OF MANKIND'S ILLNESS IS LOVE....</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">IT STARTS WITH LOVE OF OURSELVES, AND GIVING THAT LOVE FOR OTHERS.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">THEN, WE LIVE A LIFE BASED ON LOVE, SO THAT WE MAY FULFILL GOD'S WILL...</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><br /></span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;">LOVE IS THE KEY SOLUTION FOR BUILDING A BETTER TOMORROW FOR MANKIND.</span></b><br />
