Lecture made by Sir Jojo Esposa Jr. about his personal experiences regarding Filipino Deaf Culture's perspective on relationships and what the Bible has to say about it.
Lk. 15:11-31 Then He said: "A certain man had two sons. "And the younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me.' So he divided to them his livelihood. "And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, journeyed to a far country, and there wasted his possessions with prodigal living. "But when he had spent all, there arose a severe famine in that land, and he began to be in want. "Then he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. "And he would gladly have filled his stomach with the pods that the swine ate, and no one gave him anything. "But when he came to himself, he said, 'How many of my father's hired servants have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! 'I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you, "and I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants."' "And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. "And the son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight, and am no longer worthy to be called your son.' "But the father said to his servants, 'Bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet. 'And bring the fatted calf here and kill it, and let us eat and be merry; 'for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' And they began to be merry. "Now his older son was in the field. And as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. "So he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant. "And he said to him, 'Your brother has come, and because he has received him safe and sound, your father has killed the fatted calf.' "But he was angry and would not go in. Therefore his father came out and pleaded with him. "So he answered and said to his father, 'Lo, these many years I have been serving you; I never transgressed your commandment at any time; and yet you never gave me a young goat, that I might make merry with my friends. 'But as soon as this son of yours came, who has devoured your livelihood with harlots, you killed the fatted calf for him.' "And he said to him, 'Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours. 'It was right that we should make merry and be glad, for your brother was dead and is alive again, and was lost and is found.'"
As we relate to each other, what we are predominantly encountering is the other person's attitudes, temperament and behavior being expressed in various situations. This message teaches us how to develop Christ-like attitudes, a Spirit-controlled temperament and Word-governed behavior. Your marriage is about to be transformed!

1-888-958-5813 NATIONAL PRAYER LINE 24/7 (Brotherhood of the Cross and Star) "LOVE ONE ANOTHER AS CHRIST LOVED US." We can also give free gospels at no cost to you. The everlasting teachings of Christ are always for the sake of salvation therefore, they must always remain free.
God teaches us in the bible how we should love. However, we know that NOT all people believe in the bible or choose to obey his laws. If everyone in this world obeyed the 2nd great commandment, that is, to love thy neighbor as thyself....there would be no hate or violence in this world. Nor would we have sodomy because a romantic relationship between two individuals of the same-gender is NOT considered love in the eyes of God. He considers it an abomination, a sin. We must learn to love not according to the desires of our flesh but according to the laws of God.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

Renewed in Grace
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
2. So that you will not sin In verse 1 is says “I write this to you so that you will not sin.” You might ask does he mean sinless perfection. No, even sometimes when we make the right choice it does not mean there is no sin involve. What he is trying to say is to make people sin less and less. If you are praying and asking God to forgive your sins ,but all ready planning your next sin then there is something wrong. If you sin and do not care and just keep breaking his commandments then this is what he is talking about. He knows that you are going to slip ,but he wants you to sin less and less.
3. Our Defender, Our Atoning Sacrifice In verse 1-2 it talks about how we have Jesus to speak to the Father in our defense. Now it is not like a lawyer who tries to prove we are innocence. We know that we are guilty ,but he speaks to the Father and tells him that HE is our sacrifice. He took our punishment so we do not have to. He become the High Priest, the blood and the mercy set. (Will go into detail in another PowerPoint about old testament sacrificing)
4. I Know Him What does it mean to know God? To know God is not as simple as saying “I believe” as even a sinner can say that. To love God is to obey his commandments. It is to have that personal relationship with him that you just start doing good and living by his word. What is God’s commandments? It is as simple as loving one another. When you start living for him and truly obey his word then your love is truly made complete in you.
5. God's Love is made complete When God’s love is made complete what do you think that means? It means that you have started to love him with you full strength, body, mind and soul. You felt that change and you started to just help, love and just doing nice things in general just because. When you feel that love and when you notice that change it is then you feel that love God has made complete in you.
6. Walk as Jesus did “This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did. “ You might be asking what does it mean to walk as Jesus did? It means to love and treat people with respect. Even when they hit Jesus he still loved them. When they mocked him he still loved them. He offered help to anyone that asked. This is what it means to walk as Jesus did. To love your brother, to help out anyone that ask for it and to just be kind overall.
7. Love one another In verses 9-10 John makes it clear that there is only two things when it comes to love. Love and hate. There is no middle ground. You might be asking well this person has done wrong to me how can I love him. As it says in Luke 17:3 "If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him.” Then one more time in Luke 17:4 “If he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times comes back to you and says, 'I repent,' forgive him."
8. Old and New command It is old cause even in the old testament and the old law it says you need to love your neighbor as yourself. A good reference is Lev. 19:18 and Lev. 19:33. In 19:18 it tells us to not hold a grudge or revenge ,but love your neighbor as yourself. As 19:33 it tells us to even love the alien. To love people that we do not even know. Now it is new in a since that it is extended. Instead of loving your neighbor as yourself, you should love him as Christ would love him.
9. Do not love the world This is a nice little passage. What it means is to not love things like material objects. When you get attached to things like T.V you can start to draw away from God and focus more on that then God. The earth and everything on it will disappear and fade away ,but when you do God’s will you have eternal life.
10. Lead you astray Verses 18-27 is here to warn you that their will be people out their that will try to turn you away from Christ. People that will try to get you to turn away from your faith. It tells you to keep what you have heard from the start. Keep the truth about Jesus in your heart and do not give in to the lies, tricks and temptation others will try on you.
11. Quick Overview Jesus came to take your punishment. He came to save us from our sin. He came to bring us back to God. He came so we can recognize that we sin and hope that we will stop sinning or at least sin less. He became our atoning sacrifice our defender so we can have fellowship with the Father. When we love one another, obey his commandments and love him more then the things of this world our love is made complete in him. You just need to remain strong and not give in to lies and fall for tricks and temptation that others will try on you to get you away from the truth.
Editor's Notes
1 John 2:1My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One.
1 John 2:1-21My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. 2He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.
1 John 2:6Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did.
1 John 2:15-17Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16For everything in the world—the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does—comes not from the Father but from the world. 17The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.
