The document discusses several biblical passages related to who or what we should pray to. It notes that Jesus is the only mediator between God and mankind, and that the veil was torn when Jesus died, allowing all people to pray directly to God. It discusses that saints are currently "sleeping" until Jesus' second coming, and examples from the Bible of saints who humbly refused worship, directing people only to God. The conclusion is that we should only pray to God and present our requests directly to Him.

This message is Part 1 of the message series "I AM" by Pastor Chuck Bernal. In this message titled, "Jesus The Great I AM", Pastor Chuck discusses the claim that Jesus made to be "I AM". By going back to the story of Moses and the burning bush, he gives the meaning of the name "I AM" and how it was used in Scripture to describe God and how it is also used to describe Jesus - because Jesus is indeed God.

True christianity and how it leads to islammuzaffertahir9
Muslims devoutly believe in Jesus, Moses and all other true prophets. Catholics, Protestants, and Muslims all claim to believe in Jesus. Why, then, are there such differences among his believers? The fact is that his teachings have been misinterpreted and misrepresented. Jesus himself did what a sincere Muslim would have done. He submitted to the will of God. He, further, prophesied the corning of Prophet Muhammad.
This short booklet offers Biblical teachings which disavow some beliefs which are wrongly attributed to Jesus Christ. It tells that there is no contradiction between Islam and true Christianity. True Christianity, in fact, leads to Islam.
The whole purpose of this booklet is to promote better understanding, closer relationship, peace, and harmony between Muslims and Christians.
Jesus said:
"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. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment ... I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
"Howbeit when he, the spirit of truth is come, he will guide you unto all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come.
"He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you". (John 16:7-15)

The Church never could have invented Jesus’ baptism at the hands of John the Baptist. Learn why, and also why Baptism is the “hermeneutical key” for understanding the meaning of Jesus’ ministry and message. See how the inspired authors of the Synoptic Gospels choose mythic language in the temptation narrative and how all three attempts of the devil are varieties on the one great temptation Jesus faced during his public ministry: To become the Messiah who fulfills the expectations of the people. Learn also the Outline of Jesus’ ministry.
What is death? What is life? Why is it true that we cannot truly live until we accept our mortality? How did the resurrection of Jesus Christ forever defeat death? Who is Jesus Christ and how was He able to accomplish what no other person in the history of man accomplished? What will happen to you when you die?

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. “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” – Jesus [John 14:6]
"Salvation is found in no one else (JESUS), for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved" - [Acts 4:12]
Question Answer Explanation
WHO IS OUR MEDIATOR? Timothy 2:5-6
There is one God and one mediator
between God and mankind, the man Christ
Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all
people.
In old testament period, it’s true that Godly men (Abraham, Moses, Esra., etc) prayed to God for
people as mediator. Jesus death removed the veil between common people and God and allowed
to pray directly instead of going thru inter mediators.
Matthew 27:50-51a
And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the
curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom
Hebrews 10:19-20
Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus, by the
new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain, that is, through his flesh.
WHAT TO DO ABOUT
SAINTS?
Romans 10:15
And how can anyone preach unless they are
sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the
feet of those who bring good news!"
Hebrews 13:7
Remember your leaders, who spoke the
word of God to you. Consider the outcome
of their way of life and imitate their faith.
We need to honor and respect Godly people and Saints. We should not worship them and should
not use them as mediator between God and us. Nowhere in the new testament is it being followed
by early believers and Christians.
WHERE ARE THE SAINTS
NOW?
1 Corinthians 15:52
People who died for Christare in sleep mode
and will raise when Christ come again.
The saints who are died in Christarein sleeping mode and cannot hear our prayers and they are all
waitingfor Christ Second Arrival to rise up. But Godly people can pray for one another until we live
[James 5:16] which is what God’s ultimate plan.
1 Corinthians 15:52-54a
In a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will
be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must clothe itself with the
imperishable and the mortal with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed with the
imperishable, and the mortal with immortality,
WHAT SAINTS DID WHEN
THEY ARE HONOURED?
[Peter - Acts 10:25-26]- As Peter entered the house, Cornelius met him and fell at his feet in reverence. But Peter made him get up. “Stand up,” he
said,“I am only a man myself.”
[John the Baptist - John 3:30]- He must become greater; I must become less.
[Mary - John 2:5]- His mother said to the servants,“Do whatever He tells you.”
[Holy Angels - Rev 22:8-9]- I, John, am the one who heard and sawthese things. And when I had heard and seen them, I fell down to worship at
the feet of the angel who had been showingthem to me. But he said to me, “Don’t do that!I am a fellow servant with you and with your fellow
prophets and with all who keep the words of this scroll.Worship God!”
[Paul – Acts 14:13-15]- Then the priestof Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done
sacrificewith the people. Which when the apostles,Barnabas and Paul,heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,
And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also aremen of likepassions with you,and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities
unto the livingGod,which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things thatare therein…
WHOM TO PRAY? Philippians 4:5b
But in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
