Our Physical & Spiritual Body We are Members of the Body of Christ (Messiah); We have the Mind of Christ (Messiah); We are Ambassadors for Christ and the Kingdom of Heaven; Our individual body is a Tabernacle; and collectively our bodies form the Body of Christ a Holy Temple; FatherLove and Christ (Messiah) dwell within us; As Christ (Messiah) is so are we in this world; We are joint heirs with Christ (Messiah). The life of FatherLove flows through our Spirit, Soul and Body bringing healing to every fiber of our being. By the stripes on Christ (Messiah) on the cross we were healed and restored in our Spirit, Soul and Body. Now we must receive what has already been accomplished for us in the Spiritual Realm and bring it into the physical realm by Faith, Patience and Love. (Hebrews6:12; Galatians5: 6) We can also help to present our body as a healthy living sacrifice holy acceptable unto FatherLove by disciplining ourself to only eat food that promotes health and taking daily walks or other moderate exercise. Christ (Messiah) set the example. He was never sick, and we should not be. We now represent Christ (Messiah) and are carrying on his work of preaching, teaching and healing. We lay our hands on people and Christ (Messiah) does the healing. When people see us they have a right to ask and receive from us anything they would ask and receive from Christ (Messiah) as if He were present. 1 Corinthians 12:27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. 1 Corinthians 2:16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? but we have the mind of Christ. 2 Corinthians 5:20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. Numbers 19:13 Whosoever toucheth the dead body of any man that is dead, and purifieth not himself, defileth the tabernacle of the LORD; and that soul shall be cut off from Israel:..he shall be unclean; his uncleanness is yet upon him. 2 Corinthians 5:1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. I Corinthians 6:13-15, 17,19-20 13…..Now the body is …for the Lord; and the Lord for the body. 14And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power. 15Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? …17But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. 19What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 20For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. John 2:21 But he spake of the temple of his body. Colossians 1:27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: John 17:22-23 22And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: 23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me. Romans 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. 1 John 4:17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. Romans 8:17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; … Psalm 107:20 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. Acts 3:6 Then Peter said, … such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. |
| Living CareFree Since GOD is our loving Father (1 John 3:1-2) and also since GOD is LOVE (1 John 4:8,16), we generally refer to GOD as 'FatherGod'; 'FatherLove'; and 'Loving Heavenly Father'. This is a personal decision and you should continue to choose how you will refer to GOD, In Love. Moreover, since FatherLove comes first in everything, it is fit and proper that we should first consider what He has to say about "Living Carefree", as follows in 1Peter 5:7: "Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you." It is very clear from looking at the above verses that FatherLove cares about us affectionately, and He does not want us to carry one burden, one care, or one worry. Therefore, He has provided a way for us to live in victory and peace every day of our life. FatherLove says that we can enjoy His victory and peace as we simply act on the words of ChristJesus (MessiahYeshua) in 1Peter5:7 by casting all our cares on Him. Our loving heavenly Father wants us to know that He desires us to live carefree lives. Worry can kill us! Therefore, He tells us "Be careful (anxious or worried) for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6-7). Certainly, we have opportunities to worry or be anxious. However, if we are going to walk in the light of FatherLove's Holy Word, we are going to have to make a conscious decision to pass up all of our opportunities to worry. If we do not, then we are not going to receive the abundant provisions which FatherLove has already made available for us to enjoy (Ephesians 1:3,8; 2:7) (1Timothy 6:7) I recall the following quotes: • If you are going to pray, do not worry! • If you are going to worry, do not pray! • Worry only saps today of its strength. Faith always gives a good report. So it is very clear that when we pray the prayer of Faith we have to believe that we have already received the answer. If we are going to worry or be anxious, and hold on to things that concern us, FatherLove cannot do anything about our situation because we still have it! It is imperative that we learn to quickly give all of our cares to Him and He will work on our situation 24 hours each and everyday until it is successfully solved, because He neither slumbers nor sleeps. Now FatherLove would never ask us to do something we could not do. He would not tell us to not worry or be full of cares, if it were not possible for us to be worry and care free. If FatherLove requested something of us that we could not do, then we would have a right to question His love and justice. I remember when I first read this scripture and realized that FatherLove said that I could get out from under the burden of care, worry and anxiety. I asked FatherLove how could anyone do this with all the demands and pressures everyone has in this modern society? The HolySpirit explained to me that my basic hindrance was trusting that FatherLove could and would indeed handle all my care, worry and anxiety. In order to resolve these two issues in my consciousness, I went to FatherLove's Holy Word to see if there were specific examples of His ability and willingness to do this for others. As I read about: • David and Goliath (1Samuel17); • Daniel in the lions den (Daniel6); • Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego in the burning fiery furnace (Daniel3); • Haman, Mordecai and Queen Esther (Esther Chapters 2-9); • the Miracles of Messiah/Christ. my Faith and Trust grew to such an extent that I was more that happy to cast all my cares on FatherLove. As a result, I can truly and honestly tell you that I have been a carefree child of FatherLove everyday since then. After doing this for a while I also learned to my total joy that FatherLove was indeed handling and solving my cares far better that anything I had been doing. Also, one care arose which I could not handle at all. The problem to me was bigger than life itself. Fortunately, what is impossible with man is possible with FatherLove. Moreover, I lucky realized that from FatherLove's point of view there was hardly any problem at all (i.e., what was a world size problem to me was only a small ant hill sized issue for FatherLove. I prayed and stood by Faith, Patience and Love (Hebrews 6:12), on the promises in Psalms 91 which indicates that FatherLove will be with me in problem situations; He will deliver me; and honor me; and satisfy me with long life. Needless to say that FatherLove did all of these and successfully solved that particular problem situation. As you examine the Scriptures closely, you will see that they cover everything we need to be a success in life. For instance, in 2Peter1:3 we have been given all things that pertain to life and godliness through the knowledge of Him (Christ/Messiah) that has called us to glory and virtue. Moreover, in 2Peter1:4 we see that He (FatherLove) has given us exceeding great and precious promises. Also, in Ephesians1:3 we see that we have already been blessed with all spiritual blessings. Furthermore, FatherLove promises to supply all our need according to his riches in glory by Christ/Messiah" (Phil. 4:19). And in Matthew 6:8 Christ/Messiah Himself said, "...your Father knoweth what things you have need of, before you ask him." However, even though FatherLove knows what we need, and it is clearly His will to supply our needs, we are still expected to ask Him by prayer and receive the answer by Faith. You see the knowledge of what is available for us to ask and receive comes from the Scriptures. Please realize that FatherLove has already given everything to us through his abundant provision. Now we must receive what we desire through the prayer of Faith, Patience and Love. The ability to live a carefree life by casting all our cares on FatherLove is what helps us to stand in Faith, Patience and Love until our prayers manifest in the physical realm. In His Love. |
| Life is in the Power of Our Tongue The following are various scriptures which emphasize the need for every Christian Believer to control and carefully select the words that we choose to speak. Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Numbers 14:28 Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you: Isaiah 57:19 I create the fruit of the lips; .... Job 22:28 Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways. Proverbs 18:20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. 1 Peter 3:10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: Hebrews 13:15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name Job 6:24 Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred. Psalm 34:13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. Psalm 35:28 And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy praise all the day long.

Psalm 51:14 Deliver me ..., O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness. Psalm 71:24 My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long: .. Psalm 119:172 My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness. Psalm 139:4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether. Proverbs 10:20 The tongue of the just is as choice silver: ... Proverbs 10:31 The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom: ... Proverbs 12:18 ... but the tongue of the wise is health. Proverbs 12:19 The lip of truth shall be established for ever: ... Proverbs 15:2 The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: ... Proverbs 15:4 A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: ... Proverbs 16:1 The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the LORD. Proverbs 17:20 He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief. Proverbs 21:23 Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles. Proverbs 31:26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. Isaiah 50:4 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned. Zephaniah 3:13 The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid. James 1:26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain. James 3:5-6 Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. Psalm 19:14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. Proverbs 6:2 Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth. Isaiah 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. Ephesians 4:15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: |
Background Music - What A Friend We Have In Jesus!
Becoming More Like Christ/Messiah
FatherGod (i.e. FatherLove -1John4:8)
desires that we HIS Children become
more and more like Our Lord, Savior
and Brother Christ/Messiah in our
daily lives. Now, please think about
this question, “How can
we become more like Christ/Messiah?
Being an engineer as one of my several
professions, along with my desire to be
a doer of FatherLove’s Holy Word
(James 1:22-26), I naturally had to explore
an answer to this question for myself. As
part of the process of becoming more and
more Christlike, we are told to put off the
old man and to put on the new man. How
in practical terms do we actually do this?
In this article, I first, explore our human
capabilities and discover that our every
ability can be broadly classified into
(1) Thinking Thoughts, and/or
(2) Performing Actions. Also, Actions
consist of speaking words and performing
deeds (i.e., thought, word and deed).
Second, I look at what type of thoughts,
words and deeds Our Loving Heavenly
FatherLove desires that we think, speak
and do.
Third, I look at the three-fold nature of
FatherLove’s Children, which are:
Holy Spirit, Soul and Body, examining
the nature of each, in light of
FatherLove’s desired standard for each.
Last, I look further at FatherLove's
concern for the use of our
mouth/tongue and the words that we
choose to speak.
In summary, by knowing that I only have
to control three types of activities
(thinking, speaking and doing) along
with knowing FatherLove's standards
for my resultant thoughts, words and
deeds has helped me to be a better
doer of FatherLove’s Holy Word and
I sincerely hope that it will help you also.

sake, that the life also of Jesus might be
made manifest in our mortal flesh.

ye put off

the old man, which is corrupt according
to the deceitful lusts; 23And be renewed
in the spirit of your mind; 24And that ye
put on the new man, which after God is
created in righteousness and true
holiness. 25Wherefore putting away
lying, speak every man truth with his
neighbour: for we are members one
of another.

(Philippians 4:8) Finally, brethren,
whatsoever things are true, whatsoever
things are honest, whatsoever things
are just, whatsoever things are pure,
whatsoever things are lovely,
whatsoever things are of good report;
if there be any virtue, and if there be
any praise, think on these things.

imaginations, and every high thing
that exalteth itself against the knowledge
of God, and bringing into captivity every
thought to the obedience of Christ;
6And having in a readiness to revenge all
disobedience, when your obedience is
fulfilled. 7Do ye look on things after the
outward appearance? if any man trust to
himself that he is Christ's, let him of
himself think this again, that, as he is

FATHERLOVE’S CONCERN FOR THE USE OF
OUR MOUTH/TONGUE
We hope that these scriptures will help
to increase and strengthen your
awareness of the importance of our
mouth/tongue and Our Loving Heavenly
Father’s concern with the words we
choose to speak.
(James 1:26) If any man among you
seem to be religious, and bridleth
not his tongue, but deceiveth his
own heart, this man's religion is vain.
(Numbers 14:28) Say unto them, As
truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye
have spoken in mine ears, so will I
do to you.
(Isaiah 57:19) I create the fruit of
the lips…
(Job 22:28) Thou shalt also decree a
thing, and it shall be established
unto thee.
(James 3: 2-13) 2 For in many things
we offend all. If any man offend not
in word, the same is a perfect man,
and able also to bridle the whole body.
3Behold, we put bits in the horses'
mouths, that they may obey us; and
we turn about their whole body.
4Behold also the ships, which
though they be so great, and
are driven of fierce winds, yet are
they turned about with a very small
helm , whithersoever the governor
listeth. 5Even so the tongue is a little
member, and boasteth great things.
Behold, how great a matter a little fire
kindleth! 6And the tongue is a fire,
a world of iniquity: so is the tongue
among our members , that it defileth
the whole body , and setteth on fire
the course of nature ; and it is set
on fire of hell. 7For every kind of
beasts, and of birds, and of serpen
ts,
and of things in the sea, is tamed ,
and hath been tamed of mankind:
8But the tongue can no man tame;
it is an unruly evil, full of deadly
poison. 9Therewith bless we God,
even the Father; and therewith curse
we men, which are made after the
similitude of God. 10Out of the same
mouth proceedeth blessing and
cursing. My brethren, these things
ought not so to be. 11Doth a fountain
send forth at the same place sweet
water and bitter? 12Can the fig tree,
my brethren, bear olive berries ?
either a vine, figs? so can no fountain

FatherGod (i.e. FatherLove -1John4:8)
desires that we HIS Children become
more and more like Our Lord, Savior
and Brother Christ/Messiah in our
daily lives. Now, please think about
this question, “How can
we become more like Christ/Messiah?
Being an engineer as one of my several
professions, along with my desire to be
a doer of FatherLove’s Holy Word
(James 1:22-26), I naturally had to explore
an answer to this question for myself. As
part of the process of becoming more and
more Christlike, we are told to put off the
old man and to put on the new man. How
in practical terms do we actually do this?
In this article, I first, explore our human
capabilities and discover that our every
ability can be broadly classified into
(1) Thinking Thoughts, and/or
(2) Performing Actions. Also, Actions
consist of speaking words and performing
deeds (i.e., thought, word and deed).
Second, I look at what type of thoughts,
words and deeds Our Loving Heavenly
FatherLove desires that we think, speak
and do.
Third, I look at the three-fold nature of
FatherLove’s Children, which are:
Holy Spirit, Soul and Body, examining
the nature of each, in light of
FatherLove’s desired standard for each.
Last, I look further at FatherLove's
concern for the use of our
mouth/tongue and the words that we
choose to speak.
In summary, by knowing that I only have
to control three types of activities
(thinking, speaking and doing) along
with knowing FatherLove's standards
for my resultant thoughts, words and
deeds has helped me to be a better
doer of FatherLove’s Holy Word and
I sincerely hope that it will help you also.
LIKE CHRIST/MESSIAH

(Romans 8:29) For whom he did foreknow,
he also did predestinate to be conformed
to the image of his Son, that he might be
the firstborn among many brethren.
(1John 3:1-2) 1Behold, what manner of
love
the Father hath bestowed upon us, that
we should be called the sons of God:
…2Beloved, now are we the sons of
God,….
(1John 4:8,16-17) 8..for God is love.
16And we have known and believed
the love that God hath to us. God is
love; and he that dwelleth in love
dwelleth in God, and God in him.
17Herein is our love made perfect,
that we may have boldness in the
day of judgment: because as he is,
so are we in this world.
(John 17:16-18) 16They are not of the world,
even as I am not of the world. 17Sanctify
them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
18As thou hast sent me into the world,
even so have I also sent them into the
world.
(2Corinthians 4:7-12) 7But we have this
treasure in earthen vessels, that the
excellency of the power may be of God,
and not of us. 10Always bearing about in
the body the dying of the Lord Jesus,
that the life also of Jesus might be made
manifest in our body. 11For we which live
are always delivered unto death for Jesus'
sake, that the life also of Jesus might be
made manifest in our mortal flesh.
12So then death worketh in us, but life
in you.
(Ephesians 4:13) Till we all come in the
unity of the faith, and of the knowledge
of the Son of God, unto a perfect man,

Ephesians 4:21-25) If so be that ye
have
heard him, and have been taught
by him,
as the truth is in Jesus: 22That
ye put off
concerning the former conversation
the old man, which is corrupt according
to the deceitful lusts; 23And be renewed
in the spirit of your mind; 24And that ye
put on the new man, which after God is
created in righteousness and true
holiness. 25Wherefore putting away
lying, speak every man truth with his
neighbour: for we are members one
of another.

FATHERLOVE’S STANDARD FOR THINKING
THOUGHTS
(Philippians 4:8) Finally, brethren,
whatsoever things are true, whatsoever
things are honest, whatsoever things
are just, whatsoever things are pure,
whatsoever things are lovely,
whatsoever things are of good report;
if there be any virtue, and if there be
any praise, think on these things.
(2Corinthians 10: 3-7) 3For though we
walk in the flesh, we do not war after
the flesh: 4(For the weapons of our
warfare are not carnal, but mighty
through God to the pulling down of
strong holds;) 5Casting down
imaginations, and every high thing
that exalteth itself against the knowledge
of God, and bringing into captivity every
thought to the obedience of Christ;
6And having in a readiness to revenge all
disobedience, when your obedience is
fulfilled. 7Do ye look on things after the
outward appearance? if any man trust to
himself that he is Christ's, let him of
himself think this again, that, as he is
Christ's, even so are we Christ's.

in love, may grow up into him in all things,

not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye
are sealed unto the day of redemption.

(1John 4:7-16) 7Beloved, let us love
one another: for love is of God; and
every one that loveth is born of God,
and knoweth God. 8He that loveth not
knoweth not God; for God is love.
9In this was manifested the love of
God toward us, because that God
sent his only begotten Son into the
world, that we might live through him.
10Herein is love, not that we loved God,
but that he loved us, and sent his Son
to be the propitiation for our sins.
11Beloved, if God so loved us, we
ought also to love one another.
12No man hath seen God at any time.
If we love one another, God dwelleth
in us, and his love is perfected in us.
13Hereby know we that we dwell in
him, and he in us, because he hath
given us of his Spirit. 14And we have
seen and do testify that the Father
sent the Son to be the Saviour of the
world. 15Whosoever shall confes
dwelleth in him, and he in God.

the love that God hath to us. God
is love; and he that dwelleth in love
dwelleth in God, and God in him.

of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom;
teaching and admonishing one another

26And God said, Let us make man

God created he him; male and

said unto them, Be fruitful, and
multiply, and replenish the earth,
and subdue it: and have dominion

borne our griefs, and carried
our sorrows: yet we did esteem him
stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5But he was wounded for our

our iniquities: the chastisement of
our peace was upon him; and with
his stripes we are healed.

unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent,

9And Moses made a serpent of brass,
and put it upon a pole, and it came to
pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man,
when he beheld the serpent of brass,
he lived.
(John 3:14) And as Moses lifted up
the serpent in the wilderness, even
so must the Son of man be lifted up:

FATHERLOVE’S CONCERN FOR THE USE OF
OUR MOUTH/TONGUE
We hope that these scriptures will help
to increase and strengthen your
awareness of the importance of our
mouth/tongue and Our Loving Heavenly
Father’s concern with the words we
choose to speak.
(James 1:26) If any man among you
seem to be religious, and bridleth
not his tongue, but deceiveth his
own heart, this man's religion is vain.
(Numbers 14:28) Say unto them, As
truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye
have spoken in mine ears, so will I
do to you.
(Isaiah 57:19) I create the fruit of
the lips…
(Job 22:28) Thou shalt also decree a
thing, and it shall be established
unto thee.
(James 3: 2-13) 2 For in many things
we offend all. If any man offend not
in word, the same is a perfect man,
and able also to bridle the whole body.
3Behold, we put bits in the horses'
mouths, that they may obey us; and
we turn about their whole body.
4Behold also the ships, which
though they be so great, and
are driven of fierce winds, yet are
they turned about with a very small
helm , whithersoever the governor
listeth. 5Even so the tongue is a little
member, and boasteth great things.
Behold, how great a matter a little fire
kindleth! 6And the tongue is a fire,
a world of iniquity: so is the tongue
among our members , that it defileth
the whole body , and setteth on fire
the course of nature ; and it is set
on fire of hell. 7For every kind of
beasts, and of birds, and of serpen
ts,
and of things in the sea, is tamed ,
and hath been tamed of mankind:
8But the tongue can no man tame;
it is an unruly evil, full of deadly
poison. 9Therewith bless we God,
even the Father; and therewith curse
we men, which are made after the
similitude of God. 10Out of the same
mouth proceedeth blessing and
cursing. My brethren, these things
ought not so to be. 11Doth a fountain
send forth at the same place sweet
water and bitter? 12Can the fig tree,
my brethren, bear olive berries ?
either a vine, figs? so can no fountain
both yield salt water and fresh.
13Who is a wise man and endued
with knowledge among you? let him
shew out of a good conversation
his works with meekness of wisdom.
(Proverbs 30:32) ….If thou hast
thought
evil, lay thine hand upon thy mouth.

| The Living Church The Living Spiritual Body of Our Lord Christ/Messiah as written in the Lamb’s Book of Life Q12. Can you clarify the difference between the church being referred to as a building versus the group of people worshiping there? A12. A timely question. Recently, I received a questionnaire asking what church I attend or belong to. After some reflective thought I replied as follows: The Living Spiritual Body of Our Lord ChristJesus (MessiahYeshua) as written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. (For selected scriptures please see appendix below) It is not a church built by hands [Acts 17:24] as is the current custom when most people refer to the church. Rather it is the Living Spiritual Body of Christ/Messiah, where Christ/Messiah is the head and we are members (with others all over the world) of HIS Spiritual Body. For individuals who choose to refer to a man- made building as the church, please answer the following questions: When Christ/Messiah returns for His Church, will these man-made buildings join Him in the air and ever be with Him? Or are these building written in the Lamb’s Book of Life? The answer to both questions is of course no. However, we the Living Spiritual Church (i.e. Living Spiritual Body of Christ/Messiah) will join HIM. [1Thessalonians4:15-17]. Please know my beautiful brothers and sisters in Christ/Messiah that we are the Living Body of Christ/Messiah and our regular meeting and fellowshipping together is extremely important to Our Loving Heavenly Father and Our Lord Christ/Messiah [Hebrews 10:25]. However, any building we choose to use to meet and fellowship in is still just a building. Wherever we the living church, as FatherLove’s children choose to fellowship together in love and worship, is equally pleasing to our loving Heavenly Father [Matthew 18:20]. It makes no difference to our Loving Heavenly Father how expensive and beautiful the building is, it still not the living church and it will not join us as we the living church meet Christ/Messiah in the air. I have repeatedly emphasized this since religious tradition has so ingrained it in the majority of Christian believers that we have to go to a special building in order to go to church. No, we are the living church and are therefore in church 24-7. Whether we choose to meet and fellowship together in a cotton patch or the greatest most expensive Cathedral, is of no importance to our Loving Heavenly Father [Matthew 18:20]. What is important is that we live everyday in honor and love for Our Loving Heavenly Father [2John4; 3John3-4]. Remember, we are the Temple of Our Loving Heavenly Father; HE lives in each of us, and is thus with us every minute of everyday. [Matthew 18:19-21; Ephesians 2:21-22; 1Corinthians 3:16-18; Ephesians 4:30] The list below pertains to members of the living church. Please note it is not a comprehensive list: • Confessed Christ/Messiah as Lord of our life [Romans 10:9-10]. • Believe that Christ/Messiah is raised from the dead and ever liveth to make intersession for us [Romans 10: 9-10; Hebrews 7:24-26]. • Sealed with the Holy Spirit of Promise [Ephesians 4:30]. • Recorded/written in the Lamb’s Book of Life [Philippians 4:3]. • Sons of FatherGod (i.e, FatherLove 1John 4: 8) [1John 3:1-2]. • Present our bodies as a living sacrifice holy, acceptable to FatherLove [Romans 12:1-2]. • Joint Heirs with Christ/Messiah [Romans 8:16- 17]. • Seated at the right hand of FatherLove in Christ/Messiah [Ephesians:2:6]. • As Christ/Messiah is in this World [1John 4:16- 17]. • Blessed with all spiritual blessings in Christ/Messiah [Ephesians 1:3]. • Made Righteous, Justified, Sanctified, Reconciled, and given the Ministry of Reconciliation as an Ambassador of Christ/Messiah [2Corinthians 5:21; Romans5:1,9; 8: 30; 1Corinthians 1:30; Romans 5:10; 2Corinthians 5: 20, 6:1]. • Acceptable to FatherLove [Ephesians 2:1- 22]. • Full citizens with all citizenship rights and privileges in the Kingdom of FatherLove [Ephesians 2:19]. • Regularly meet and fellowship with each other [Hebrews 10:25; Acts 2:42; 1John 1:3, 6-7; Philippians 1:5; 2:1; 1Corinthians 1:9; 2Corinthians 6:14; 8:4;Galatians 2:9]. • FatherLove and Christ/Messiah live with each of us. [Ephesians 2:21-22]. • FatherLove cause every good thing we do to prosper [Psalms 1:1-3]. • FatherLove satisfies us with long life and shows us his salvation [Psalm 91:16]. • Live by Faith, which works by Love [Romans 1:17; 2Corinthians 5:7; Galatians 5:6; 1Corinthians 13:4-8]. • Fruitful in every good work [Hebrews 10:24; 13:21; 2Corinthians 9:8; 2Timothy 2:21;Colossians 1: 10; Titus 3:1]. • Live happy carefree lives by casting all our cares on FatherLove [1 Peter 5:5-7;James 4:10]. • Control our speech to communicate encouragement and blessing to all [James 1:26; 3: 2,10,13: Colossians 4:5; Ephesians 4:29; 5:19-20]. • FatherLove Answers our prayers [Matthew 18: 19-21;1John 5:14-15]. • Use our Faith, Patience and Love to receive and manifest our answered prayers [Hebrews 6:12; Galatians 5:6; 1Corinthians 13:4-8]. • Offer sacrifice of Praise to FatherLove continually [Hebrews13:15]. • Take no consideration to any evil that is done toward us [1Corinthians 13:5; Romans 12:17-21; 1Thessalonians 5:15]. • Show love and forgiveness to all regardless of whether they are friends or enemies [Romans 12:17-21; St. John13:34-35; 1Thessalonians 5:15; Ephesians 4:31-32]. • Put on and walk daily in the whole armor of FatherLove [Ephesians 6:10-24]. • Study and Apply the Holy Word of FatherLove [2Timothy 2:15; James 1:22]. • Healed and made whole in our Spirit, Soul and Body by Christ/Messiah [1Peter 2:24; Isaiah 53: 4; Matthew 8:17; 3John 2-4; 1Thessalonians 5:23]. • Well Protected [Psalm 91:1-16; St. John 16:33; Acts 1:8; 2Thessalonians 3:3]. • Angels of FatherLove surround and protect us in all our ways [Psalms 91: 9-15]. APPENDIX Living Church – Living Body of Christ/Messiah [Ephesians 1: 22]And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, 23Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. [Ephesians 2:21-22] 21In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: 22In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit. [Ephesians 4 selected scriptures] 4There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. 11And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: 14That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love. [Romans 12:4-5] 4For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: 5So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. [1 Corinthians 10:17]For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread. [1Corinthians 12 selected scriptures] 12For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. 13For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. 14For the body is not one member, but many. 15If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 16And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 17If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? 18But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him. 19And if they were all one member, where were the body? 20But now are they many members, yet but one body. 22Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary: 23And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness. 24For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked. 25That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. 27Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. 28And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. Building Not Made By Hands [Acts 17:24] God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; [1 Kings 8:27] But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded? [2 Chronicles 6:18] But will God in very deed dwell with men on the earth? behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house which I have built! [2 Corinthians 5:1] For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. [Hebrews 9:11] But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; Lamb’s Book of Life [Philippians 4:3] And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life. [Revelation 3:5] He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. [Revelation 20:12] And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. [Revelation 20:15] And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. [Revelation 21:27] And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life. [Revelation 22:19] And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

| Lying / False Reports - satan’s Tactic The following are some of the other titles that I considered for this article. - Do Not Be a Pawn of satan. - Stop Being a Tool of satan. - Know a Major Tactic of satan. [Ephesians 6:10-20] 10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. [Ephesians 6:11;16;10-20] 11 Put on the whole armour of FatherGod, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of satan the devil; 16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith you shall be able to quench all the lies & false reports/fiery darts of satan the wicked father of lies. [2 Corinthians 2:11] Lest satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. [1John 4:4] You are of FatherGod, little children, and have overcome satan: because greater is HE that is in you, than he that is in the world. Have you ever wondered why FatherGod (i.e., FatherLove 1John4:8; 1John3:2) included lying or bearing false witness as one of the “thou shall not” in the Ten Commandments? [Exodus 20:16] [Deuteronomy 5:15] Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. I think that FatherLove dislikes it so much because lying or bearing false witness against someone is one of the most effective tools satan (the Father of Lies) uses to destroy mankind. [John 8:44] Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. Our loving heavenly father desires all of mankind to live in love, harmony and peace with each other. [John 3:16-17] 16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. However, the sad truth is that mankind willingly cooperates with our enemy satan in his effort to destroy mankind. [John 10:10] The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: … [Acts 5:3] But Peter said, Ananias, why hath satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost,.? [John 12:40] He (satan) hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. [1 John 2:11] But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes. The following scriptures illustrate our loving heavenly father’s strong hate for lying and bearing false witness against others; [Proverbs 6:16-19] 16These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: 17A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 19A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren. satan used the tactic of lying and false report against our Lord Christ/Messiah and King David a man after FatherLove’s own heart. Christ/Messiah [Matthew 26:59] Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death; [Mark 14:57] And there arose certain, and bare false witness against him, saying, [Luke 23:34] Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. King David [Acts 13:22] And ..., he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will. [Psalm 69:3-4] 3I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God. 4They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty:…. [Psalm 59:3] For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD. [Psalm 109:2] For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue. [Psalm 120:2] Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue. [Psalm 119:161] Princes have persecuted me without a cause: [Psalm 119:23] Princes also did sit and speak against me:.. When someone formulates a lie of false report against another person the very best way for the injured person/innocent victim to respond is to imitate our Loving Heavenly Father and our Lord Christ/Messiah with acts of love, prayer and forgiveness for the offending person. [Matthew 5:43-48] 43Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 46For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? 48Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. [Luke 23:34] Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do…. [Acts 7:59-60] 59And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. 60And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep. [Romans 12:19] Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. [Leviticus 19: 18] Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD. [1Samuel 24:12] The LORD judge between me and thee, and the LORD avenge me of thee: but mine hand shall not be upon thee. [Luke 18:7] And shall not God avenge his own elect,.? In addition to the harm done to the person being lied about, the heart of the hearer of the lie or false report becomes filled with hate and anger toward the innocent person. Our FatherLove and our Lord Christ/Messiah have instructed us to keep our hearts pure with all diligence. [Proverbs 4:23] Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. [Matthew 15: 19] For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: Unfortunately the hearer’s heart has now become defiled and they become a participant to the lie/false report/offense as they join in illegal, hateful, evil and criminal acts against the innocent person/victim of the Lie. From discussions with several victims of satan’s lies and false reports (as satan works through others), these innocent victims have unfortunately experienced evil, criminal and illegal acts made against them, such as: a. Harmful items placed in the innocent person’s food and drinks, b. Innocent person’s luggage being purposely damaged, c. Purposely spilling coffee or some other drink on the innocent person, d. Purposely bumping service cart into the innocent person, e. Purposely performing shoddy repair work (and over charging) on the innocent person’s auto, home, other belongings and property, f. Businesses being extremely rude to the innocent person. g. Businesses being extremely frightened and panicky while servicing the innocent person. h. Others taking every opportunity to gossip, slander and destroy the reputation of the innocent person, i. Purposely harassing the innocent person. j. Anonymous harassing telephone calls and emails, k. Many citizens making obscene gestures as they drive pass the innocent person’s vehicle, l. Public and private law enforcement officers who believe the Lies without checking on the validity of what others say; They just ignore the victim’s request/plea for help. m. Others who have the resources to determine the actual facts and thus help the innocent victim but instead refuse to investigate and determine if the lie or false report is indeed false. n. Those who know of the lie/false report and could help the innocent victim by working with the victim and appropriate law enforcement offices, but instead decide to not get involved. Hopefully no one knowingly would perform such actions toward a innocent person. However, the problem is that the “satan sponsosed lie/false report” through an individual is generally accepted by the hearer and thus offending party as being credible. In order to avoid satan’s trap, just remember that If someone is truly a criminal or is evil, it is only the duty of official law enforcement officers (and the vengeance of our FatherLove) to ensure that legal justice is administered. However, if anyone takes the law into their own hand by performing hateful and criminal acts as mentioned above, then they have become a criminal them self. It is important to realize that as FatherLove’s child our job is to only love our enemies and do good to them. Even if someone is firmly convinced that another person is a criminal and truly evil it is still not their right and duty to help destroy that individual by evil acts such as indicated above. Any evil act someone may decide to do against another person only makes them-self a criminal. Therefore, it is critical that anyone stop and repent immediately if they are doing anything toward another person other than loving, praying and forgiving them. Our Loving Heavenly Father knows all of the thoughts and intents of each of our hearts and HIS spiritual law of sowing and reaping, guarantees that everyone will receive in turn what they do to others, whether good or bad. [Colossians 3:25] But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons. Spiritual Law - Sowing and Reaping [Galatians 6:7] Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. [Job 4:8] Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same. [Luke 6: 31]And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise. [Matthew 7:12]Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. [Romans 13: 8-10] 8Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. 9For this, ..Thou shalt not bear false witness,..; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 10Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. [Proverbs 17:13] Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house. [Romans 12:17] Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. [1Thessalonians 5:15] See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. [1Peter 3:9] Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing. [Colossians 3:25] But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons. FatherLove’s Responsibility To The Offender/Liar FatherLove stands up and fights for the rights of HIS children. Therefore the person whom satan works through to formulate a lie and false report tactic will be appropriately judged and repaid. This includes all who become a participant in a lie and false report through their evil acts to the innocent person/victim of false report. [Romans 12:19] Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. [2Thessalonians 1:6] Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you; [Deuteronomy 30:7] And the LORD thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, which persecuted thee. [Deuteronomy 28:7] The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways. . [Proverbs 12:19] … a lying tongue is but for a moment. [Proverbs 19:5] A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape. [Proverbs 19:9] A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall perish. [Proverbs 21:6] …a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death. [Proverbs 21:28] A false witness shall perish:... [Proverbs 26:28] A lying tongue hateth those that are afflicted by it; ... [Malachi 3: 5] And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against …false swearers,... saith the LORD of hosts. [Colossians 3:25] But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons. FatherLove’s Responsibility To The Innocent Victim Of The Lie [Deuteronomy 28:7] The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways. [Isaiah 54:17] No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. [Psalm 91:14-16] 14Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. 15He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. 16With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation. You are greatly loved by our Loving Heavenly FatherGod (FatherLove) and our savior.lord. brother Christ/Messiah. FatherLove and Christ/Messiah live within each of you and you are FatherLove's very best masterpiece! (Colossians 1:27, Ephesians 2:10). Love to each of you from Love, Faith & Hope Fellowship. [1Corinthians 13:13] And now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love. Love, Faith & Hope Fellowship Website http://www.lovefaithhopefellowship.com |
| Spiritual Law of Sowing and Reaping (Golden Rule) The following are some other titles that I considered for this article: - Spiritual Law of Seedtime and Harvest. - Spiritual Law of Giving and Receiving. - It is a Just/Impartial Universe - You Reap What You Sow. Spiritual Laws are just as real as physical laws. We are all familiar with the physical laws of gravity and lift (used by aircraft). We are also familiar with the Spiritual Law of Confession is Possession. [Proverbs 18:21] Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. [Numbers 14:28] Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you. [Isaiah 57:19] I create the fruit of the lips. [Job 22:28] Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee. Well just like the physical law of gravity and the Spiritual Law of Confession Is Possession, the Spiritual Law of Sowing and Reaping is always at work. What we sow, we reap! It’s a Spiritual Law and it is at work all the time. In order for us to live successfully with the Spiritual Law of Sowing and Reaping, our Lord and Savior ChristJesus/MessiahYeshua taught us what we are to think, speak, do and believe. [Matthew 7:12]Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. [Luke 6:31] And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise. [Galatians 6:7] Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. The following scriptures cover the behavior that our Loving Heavenly Father expects from HIS children. Likewise, Christ/Messiah also expects this same behavior from HIS Spiritual Body “The Living Church – The Spiritual Body of Christ/Messiah”. [Mark 12:29-31] 29And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: 30And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. 31And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. [Philippians 4:8] Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Please note that the definition of neighbor as used above includes our friends as well as our enemies. [Roman 12:17-21] Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. 18If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. 19Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 20Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 21Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. [Job 4:8] Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same. [Romans 13:9-10] Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 10Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. [Proverbs 17:13] Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house. [1Thessalonians 5:15] See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. [Galatians 6:7] Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. [Colossians 3:25] But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons. Please carefully note that Our Loving Heavenly Father by knowing that each of us will reap what we sow, HE then specifically instructs us: [Roman 12:19] Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. The Spiritual Law of Sowing and Reaping is just and impartial and therefore no one is immune from it’s effect. [Galatians 6:7] Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. [Colossians 3:25] But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons. That’s why Our Loving Heavenly Father tell us HIS children to love and do good to all, since this is what HE desires for HIS children and others to receive as a result of this spiritual law. It is important that we as FatherGod’s children and members of the Spiritual Body of Christ/Messiah obey all Spiritual Laws in order to live a successful and victorious life here on earth. All Spiritual Laws are very important, however, can we see that if everyone knew and believed the impact of the Spiritual Law of Sowing and Reaping on the quality of their individual life, then all evil acts would immediately stop or at a minimum they would greatly decline. This is such an important Spiritual Law to each of us, so please let’s always keep it in mind and perform loving, good and helpful acts to all. It is also interesting that this Spiritual Law of Sowing and Reaping is taught in most of the world’ s religions. Please see the following websites for an exposition of The Universality of the Golden Rule in the World Religions. http://www.teachingvalues.com/goldenrule.html http://www.jcu.edu/philosophy/gensler/poster.gif You are greatly loved by our Loving Heavenly FatherGod (FatherLove) and our savior.lord. brother Christ/Messiah. FatherLove and Christ/Messiah live within each of you and you are FatherLove's very best masterpiece!(Colossians 1: 27, Ephesians 2:10). Love to each of you from Love, Faith & Hope Fellowship.

Two Types Of Christians The following are other titles that I considered for this article: Two Types of Members of The Living, Spiritual Body of Christ/Messiah. Two Types of FatherGod’s Children. Two Types of Members of the Church of FatherGod. Introduction [1 Corinthians 10:32] Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God: In this scripture Our Loving Heavenly FatherGod gives us HIS ethnic division of human kind: Jew, Gentile, and Church of God. Jew refers to a descendant of Abraham. Gentile refers to an individual who is not a Jew and is not born again with FatherGod Holy Spirit (i.e., is not a member of the Church of God). The Church of FatherGod (i.e., the Living Spiritual Body of Christ/Messiah) is composed of individuals who have confessed Christ/Messiah as Lord of their life and believe that FatherGod has raised Christ/Messiah from the dead. And they have been sealed with the Holy Spirit of Promise. See Appendix A for supporting scriptures. For simplicity in this article let’s refer to the Church of FatherGod as “ The Church” and refer to the members of The Church of FatherGod as “Christians”. [Acts 11:26] …. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. This is because they were always going around saying that they had “Christ In” them (i.e, Christian). Please note that when a Jew or Gentile becomes a member of The Church, FatherGod no longer views them as a Jew or Gentle but as a member of The Church. Upon becoming a Christian, FatherGod then views each Christian as one who is Carnal or one who is Spiritual. We all start out as a Carnal Christian and then through study and practice in applying FatherGod’s Word in our life, we grow or mature in the things of FatherGod, thus growing and becoming more and more a Spiritual Christian. Carnal Christians Carnal Christians are: babes in Christ/Messiah; they do not seriously pursue spiritual development; they are full of envying, strife, divisions, gossiping, sowing discord, anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, lying and filthy communication out of their mouth; they walk as mere men and not as Sons of FatherGod; they do not diligently study or strive to renew their mind to FatherGod’s Holy Word; they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge; they are ignorant of FatherGod's righteousness, and go about to establish their own righteousness; they have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God; they are not doers of FatherGod’s Holy Word; they are respecter of persons and glory in men and their positions; they show no interest in putting off the old man and putting on the new man; they have no knowledge or do not strive to put on the Full Armor of FatherGod; they are not patient and kind; they envieth, and they are proud and puffed up; they behave unseemly; they seek their own; they easily provoked; they think evil; they rejoice in iniquity, and do not rejoice in the truth; they do not bear, believe, hope, and endure all things; and the sad truth is that many baby carnal Christians live their life and then die as a babe in Christ/Messiah (Please note that this list is not all inclusive). Spiritual Christians Spiritual Christians are those who seriously desire to know their FatherGod and Christ/Messiah in reality; they diligently study the scriptures in order to come unto a knowledge of the truth; they strive to daily renew their mind; they strive to be a doer of FatherGod’ Holy Word; they know what spiritually belongs to them and take advantage of it; they know the blessed intimacy of the Holy Spirit Comforter as HE is revealed in the scriptures; they strive to govern their thoughts, words and deeds to conform with Our FatherGod’s commandments; they strive to love FatherGod with their whole Spirit, Soul and Body and to love their neighbor as themselves; they strive to show kindness, tenderness, and forgiveness to all without exception; they strive to love, bless, do good and pray for all without exception; they are not a respecter of persons; they are patient and kind; they envieth not; they are not proud and puffed up; they do not behave unseemly; they seek not their own; they are not easily provoked; they think no evil; they do not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoice in the truth; they bear, believe, hope, and endure all things; they strive to put off the old man and to put on the new man; they daily strive to put on and walk in the full Armor of FatherGod; they strive to imitate Our FatherGod and walk in love; (Please note that this list is not all inclusive). Looking at the sad beginning state of carnality of most Christians as babes in Christ/Messiah, we can really appreciate the job faced by Our Holy Spirit Comforter whose job it is to help lead and guide us into all truth and help us to be conformed unto the image of the perfect person, unto the image of Christ/Messiah. Our Loving Heavenly FatherGod desires that each of us HIS children grow and become spiritually mature. HE desires that we eat the spiritual meat of HIS Word in addition to the spiritual milk of HIS Word. Spiritual milk is for babies and spiritual meat is for mature Children of FatherGod. Please note that none of us have attained perfection, however, we can determine for ourselves if we are daily growing in grace and in the knowledge of our loving heavenly father and Our Lord Christ/Messiah. Please refer to Appendix B for supporting scriptures pertaining to Carnal Christians and Appendix C for supporting scriptures pertaining to Spiritual Christians. You are greatly loved by Our Loving Heavenly FatherGod (FatherLove) and our savior.lord. brother Christ/Messiah. FatherLove and Christ/Messiah live within each of you and you are FatherLove's very best masterpiece! (Colossians 1:27, Ephesians 2:10). Love to each of you from Love, Faith & Hope Fellowship.

The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. [Ephesians 1 selected scriptures] 13In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise. 22And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, 23Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. [Ephesians 2: 1-22] 1And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; 2Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: 3Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. 4But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, 5Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 6And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 7That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. 8For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. 11Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 12That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: 13But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. 14For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; 15Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; 16And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: 17And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. 18For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. 19Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; 20And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; 21In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: 22In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit. [John 14:16] And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; [John 14:26] But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. [John 15:26] But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: [John 16:7] Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. Appendix B - Carnal Christian [1Corinthians 3: 1-9] 1And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. 2I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. 3For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? 4For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal? 5Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? 6I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. 7So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. 8Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. 9For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building. Hebrews 5: 11Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. 12For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. 13For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. 14But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. [Romans 8:6-7] 6For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. [Romans 10: 2-4] 2For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. 3For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. [Ephesians 4:22] That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; [Colossians 3:9] Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; Appendix C - Spiritual Christian [2 Timothy 2:15] Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. [1Corinthians 13] 1Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 2And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. 3And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. 4Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 5Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; 6Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; 7Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. 8Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. 9For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. 10But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. 11When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. 13And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. [Romans 12:1-2] 1I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. [Colossians 3:8-10] 8But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. 9Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; 10And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: [2 Peter 3:18] But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen. [2 Corinthians 5:17] Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. [Galatians 6:15] For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. [Ephesians 4:24] And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. [Colossians 2:16] Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: [Colossians 3:10] And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: [Romans 1:11] For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established; [Ephesians 5:1-2] 1Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; 2And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. [Ephesians 6: selected scriptures] 10Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: 18Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; 19And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. 23Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 24Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen. [Romans 8:6] For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. [1 Corinthians 2:13] Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. [1 Corinthians 2:15] But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. [1 Corinthians 3:1] And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. [1 Corinthians 12:1] Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. [1 Corinthians 14:1] Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. [1 Corinthians 14:12] Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church. [1 Corinthians 14:37] If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord. [Galatians 6:1] Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. [Ephesians 1:3] Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: [Ephesians 5:19] Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; [Colossians 1:9] For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; [Colossians 3:16] Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. [1 Peter 2:5] Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. [Colossians 3 selected scriptures] 1If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. 3For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. 5Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: 7In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them. 8But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. 9Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; 10And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: 11Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. 12Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; 13Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. 14And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. 15And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. 16Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. 17And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him. 22Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God; 23And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; 24Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ. 25But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons. |

ID=lovefaithhopefellowshiphealth **************************************************************** ALL APPENDICES ARE BELOW APPENDIX A - Christ/Messiah’s Message To The World (Selected Scriptures – see complete Bible for all of them) [John 3:16] 16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. [1 Timothy 2:3-5] 3For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 4Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. 5For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; [Revelation 3:20] Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. [Matthew 11:28-30] 28Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. [Matthew 22:37-40] 37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38This is the first and great commandment. 39And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. APPENDIX B - Christ/Messiah’s Message To His Body of Believers, The Church (Selected Scriptures – see complete Bible for all of them) [Ephesians 1:2-3] 2Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. 3Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: [Romans 12:1-2] 1I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. [Matthew 11:28-30] 28Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. [James 1:22] But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. [Philippians 4:8] Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. [2 Timothy 2:15] Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. [2 Corinthians 10:5] Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; [John 15:7] If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. [1 John 5:13-15] 13These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. 14And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: 15And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him. [John 14:15] If ye love me, keep my commandments. [Luke 6:46] And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? [1Corinthians 1:9-10] 9God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord. 10Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. [2Corinthians 5:17-20] 17Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. [1 Corinthians 13] 1Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 2And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. 3And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. 4Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 5Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; 6Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; 7Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. 8Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. 9For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. 10But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. 11When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. 13And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. [Ephesians 4:11-13] 11And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: [Matthew 28:18-20] 18And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. APPENDIX C – Integrity of FatherGod’s Holy Word [Titus 1:2] In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began; [2 Timothy 3:16-17] 16All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. [2 Peter 1:20-21] 20Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. [Romans 15:4] For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope. [Deuteronomy 29:29] The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law. [John 14:10-11] 10Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. 11Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me:. [Isaiah 40:8] The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever. [Matthew 24:35] Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. [Mark 13:31] Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. [Luke 21:33] Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

[Colossians 1:13] Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: [1 Thessalonians 5:23] And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. [Exodus 15:26] …for I am the LORD that healeth thee. [Romans 8:11] But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. [Isaiah 53:5] But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. [Numbers 21:8-9] 8And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live. 9And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived. [John 3:14] And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: [Matthew 8:17] That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses. [1 Peter 2:24] Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

[2 Corinthians 5:7] (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) [Matthew 9:29]Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you. [Habakkuk 2:4] 4… but the just shall live by his faith. [Mark 9:23] Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. [Psalm 116:10] I believed, therefore have I spoken: [John 4:50] Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way. [Acts 28:24] And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.

[Isaiah 55:11] So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
