God sent his son into the world so that through him, people may live. God loves us greatly and calls us his children. God is patient and wants all people to repent from their sins and come to him, not wishing for anyone to perish. Those who are blessed by God will enter his kingdom prepared for them, while those who are cursed will depart into eternal fire. God's ways are higher than human ways and he has mercy on whom he chooses, while hardening others according to his will. People should not question God or talk back to him, as he has the right as our creator to make us as he sees fit.

The 70-day challenge for those participating in the "Heart of the Matter" series is over, but we hope the transformation of our hearts continues as we make these new practices part of our daily life.
This is the first of 4 talks looking at why we gather together as church and what we are seeking to do when we gather. In this sermon Alastair focuses on the simply but profound importance of realising that we gather in God's presence and considers how we do this.
With what two wills does each genuine Christian struggle? How have each of these wills impacted your life? What happens if we chose not to know the will of God? How do you discern the will of God? What is necessary in order to know God's will? Can a non-Christian know the will of God? Explain your answer. Does obeying the will of God avoid difficulties and pain? Explain. These and other questions are addressed in this biblical study.

E.The Book Of Job(Job, an upright and pious man, has been stAlyciaGold776
E.
The Book Of Job
(Job, an upright and pious man, has been struck by a series of disasters which have destroyed his family, his great wealth, and finally his health, leaving him only his shrewish wife. In a society where it was believed that God rewarded the just and punished the evil, Job’s sufferings presented a terrible problem.)
Now when Job’s three friends heard of all this evil that had come upon him, they came each from his own place, Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. They made an appointment together to come and comfort him. And when they saw him from afar, they did not recognize him; and they raised their voices and wept; and they rent their robes and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.
After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth. And Job said:
Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night which said, “A man child is conceived.”
Let that day be darkness! May God above not seek it, nor light shine upon it.
Let the stars of its dawn be dark; let it hope for light, but have none, nor see the eyelids of the morning; because it did not shut the doors of my mother’s womb, nor hide trouble from my eyes.
Why did I not die at birth, come forth from the womb and expire?
Why did the knees receive me? Or why did the breasts, that I should suck?
For then I should have lain down and been quiet; I should have slept; then I should have been at rest, with Kings and counselors of the earth who rebuilt ruins for themselves, or with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver.
Why is light given to him that is in misery and life to the bitter in soul?
Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, whom God has hedged in?
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered:
If one ventures a word with you, will you be offended?
Is not your fear of God your confidence, and the integrity of your ways your hope?
Think now, who that was innocent ever perished? Or where were the upright cut off?
As I have seen, those who plow inequity and sow trouble reap the same.
By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of his anger they are consumed. Can mortal man be righteous before God? Can a man be pure before his maker?
For affliction does not come from the dust, nor does trouble sprout from the ground; but man is born to trouble as the sparks fly upward.
Behold, happy is the man whom God reproves; therefore despise not the chastening of the Almighty.
For he wounds, but he binds up; he smites, but his hands heal.
Then Job answered:
Teach me and I will be silent; make me understand how I have erred.
How forceful are honest words! But what does reproof from you reprove?
You would even cast lots over the fatherless, and bargain over your friend.
Therefore I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit. I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
Then Bildad the Shuhite answered:
How long will you say these things, and the words of ...
2020.01.19 - The Word of God at the Feast of EpiphanyBilly Dean
„Oh, and you must know, man, that you cannot earn your life with God in eternity, but only now, here, as long as you live on earth, because there are no alms to be able to acquire this eternal joy, because it is on merit, it is on much work, on much closeness to God here, ...”
In many things one can find a sense of life. But few of them will benefit others. And perhaps none of them will be for God's benefit. If I believe that everything that sees my eyes was created out of love for me, then I want to know how deep this love is. I want to know it for this life perhaps even the life which is still waiting for me.

Many things happen in life and often seem nonsensical. But if I do not know how bitter it tastes, how can I know how sweet it tastes? Everything seems to be for our growth and transformation. Situations do not appear just at whim in the life.
The primal command of God - Be It! is the Creative Power, the Word of God which is at the back of all that exists.
Our entire activity derives power from that command which is the Word of God within all of us and the entire creation.
We have to hear that Word within us and for that we have to seek a fully realized and duly authorized living teacher of our time.
If you want to know God, our Real Father then simply register your demand at the forehead and keep on knocking.
Do not desire things of this world. Let God be your prime desire and rest assure that you will be guided to His fully realized and duly authorized teacher of our time.
With our present intellect we cannot decide about real spiritual guide but if we are earnest in our desire God will do it for us. Have faith.

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…

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.

1.
2. God is love. This is how God
showed His love among us:
He sent His one & only Son into
the world that we might live
through Him.”
3. How great is the love the
Father has lavished on us,
that we should be called children
of God! And that is what we are!”
4. The Lord is not slow in keeping
His promise, as some understand
slowness. He is patient with
you, not wanting anyone to
perish, but everyone to come to
repentance.”
5. Then the King will say to those
on His right, 'Come, you who are
blessed by My Father; take your
inheritance, the kingdom
prepared for you since the
creation of the world.”
6. Then He will say to those
on His left, 'Depart from me,
you who are cursed, into the
eternal fire prepared for the
devil & His angels.‟ ”
7. “At the heart of this perspective is
the belief that, given enough
time, everybody will turn to God &
find themselves in the joy & peace
of God‟s presence. The love of God
will melt every hard heart, & even
the most „depraved sinners‟ will
eventually give up their resistance
and turn to God.”
8.
9. Once the owner of the house
gets up & closes the door, you
will stand outside knocking &
pleading, 'Sir, open the door
for us.' "But He will answer,
'I don't know you or where
you come from.‟ ”
10. Then you will say, 'We ate &
drank with You & You taught
in our streets.' "But He will reply,
'I don't know you or where you
come from. Away from Me,
all you evildoers!‟ ”
11. There will be weeping there,
& gnashing of teeth, when you
see Abraham, Isaac & Jacob
& all the prophets in the kingdom
of God, but you yourselves
thrown out.”
12. Do not be afraid of those who
kill the body but cannot kill the
soul. Rather, be afraid of the
One who can destroy both soul
& body in hell.”
13. As the heavens are higher
than the earth, so are My ways
higher than your ways &
My thoughts than your
thoughts.”
14. Therefore God has mercy on
whom He wants to have mercy,
& He hardens whom He wants to
harden. One of you will say to me:
„Then why does God still blame
us? For who resists His will?‟ ”
15. But who are you, O man, to talk
back to God? "Shall what is formed
say to Him who formed it, 'Why did
You make me like this?‟ ” Does not
the Potter have the right to make
out of the same lump of clay some
pottery for noble purposes &
some for common use?”
