Jesus Christ died for us, so that we live with him no matter how alive and falling asleep. How did this happen? So wake up, what's the same as falling asleep? This is a difficult puzzle, but if we know that everyone is open in front of him whether it is a living or dead, and his intention is to live in him. When we live in him At that time, we are no longer ourselves but a part of Jesus Christ, so no matter whether it is life or death, it exists with the god of eternal life.
1 Jn 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.
In our quest to imitate Jesus Christ, we seek to abide. Our seeking the Lord is to abide in Him and enjoy the blessings of that abode. The life of a seeking is hard, yet rewarding

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.

rescue him; I will protect him, for he
acknowledges my name.
v15 He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I
will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and
honor him.
v16 With long life will I satisfy him and show him
my salvation."

WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU DO
AND DON’T DO FOR HIM

saying: "I have loved you with
an everlasting love; I have

kindness.

KNOWS YOUR HEART IF YOU TRULY
LOVE HIM.
Psalm 139:1-3

and you know me. You know
when I sit and when I rise; you
perceive my thoughts from afar.
You discern my going out and my
lying down; you are familiar with
all my ways.(NIV)
6. Mark 12:28 One of the teachers of the law
came and heard them debating. Noticing
that Jesus had given them a good answer,
he asked him, "Of all the commandments,
which is the most important?"
Mark 12:29 The most important one,
answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel,
the Lord our God, the Lord is one.
Mark 12:30 Love the Lord your God with
all your heart and with all your soul and
with all your mind and with all your
strength.'
7. TWO BIG QUESTIONS TO
ANSWER..
1.Will or Can God say to you
that you really love Him?
2. How does God know
that you truly love Him?
8. THE ANSWER ACCORDING
TO BIBLE IS:
1John 5:3 This is love for God: to obey his
commands. And his commands are not
burdensome,
John 14:23 Jesus replied, "If anyone loves
me, he will obey my teaching. My Father will
love him, and we will come to him and make
our home with him.
John 14:24 He who does not love me will
not obey my teaching. These words you
hear are not my own; they belong to the
Father who sent me.

'You fool!' will be in danger of the fire of hell.
