This presentation showcases the divine perspective on marriage and alchemical union of souls.
The time has come for the collective to be made aware of the concept of Twin Flames; who they are, where they come from and what they are here to do.
Twin souls are part of one original consciousness, that had been separated to manifest as the Divine Feminine and the Divine Masculine. These divine lovers literally share the same soul.
They are here to assist humanity in their evolution of consciousness and to teach them the important lesson of unconditional love. Through the reunion with their divine counterpart, they close the spiritual circle of life. They reestablish the template of divine love that originates from the ancients of the Golden Age. They belong to the resurrected saints that according to Utiger (2013) will initiate the Era of the Millennium.
They exemplify what Holy Matrimony truly is, why it is important and why it had been established in the first place. The spiritual intimacy between partners precedes emotional and physical intimacy. Friendship leads into courtship, which leads into the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony.
Worldly love and marriage had been completely put upside down. It is essentially based on physical lust and egoistic desires. We must give love a chance. Once the physical contact is initiated it is very unlikely if not impossible to achieve emotional or even spiritual intimacy.
Major histocompatibility complexes are immune system cells, manifested in body odors, that are automatically picked up by the unconscious mind in the quest of a romantic partner. They allow the determination of genetic compatibility through chemosensory communication, without any kind of physical or intimate interaction (Wedekind, 1995). We automatically choose a mating partner with a very high percentage of genetic compatibility or complementarity, to make sure that our offspring disposes of an optimal immune system diversity and functioning and this complementarity enhances sexual desire and satisfaction and the wish to procreate (Kromer et al. 2016). Artificial perfumes change or mask our natural body odor and the birth control pill interferes with our ability to recognize genetic compatibility through olfactory cues (Roberts et al., 2008). Both are better to be avoided in the quest of the optimal genetic match.
Beyond all this, God chooses a partner for us that is compatible in all imaginable senses, on the physical, emotional and ethereal level, which makes all these mating theories obsolete. The challenge is to pray to God for the perfect partner and to wait for this person to come into your life and not to beg for His approval when truly our personal choice is already made. It demands great spiritual maturity and advancement in the transformation process for the perfect partner to be sent into our lives.

Have you ever needed strength, courage, or boldness to face your fears, trials, or the approaching enemy? It is easy to get overwhelmed by the things in this life that you cannot control. It is a fact that through this life we will have trials of many kinds that remain outside our control but we do not have to be afraid nor do we have to live in defeat because the Lord has given us a Spirit of Courage not of Fear. God promises that victory is found not by relying on the strength of man or the power of human will rather it is found through this power, provision, and protection.

Words of Jesus (Doctrine: What Jesus Said)Rick Bruderick
In exploring Church doctrine, followers of the Lord Jesus Christ can't dismiss His Words. They are the way, the truth and the life. Here we compare 3 conversations about acquiring eternal life.
Man has a lot of questions in his life. Who am I? What I want? Does God exists? Is He interested in me? The heart itself can give many answers to a man, but most people do not go beyond the shadow of their own ego. If I believe that in the Bible God has revealed his view of man, then this book can give me answers to all my questions.

The Parable of the Sower and the Seed (Luke 8) is about radical transformation from dirt to new life that happens from God's Word and the dangers that come for those seeking spiritual growth!
We've got to allow God to strip down all the years of grime and cheap paint piled on top of each other. He needs to get down to the bare original so He can begin to fill the cracks, sand the rough edges, and make our hearts beautiful again. He’s already looked beneath the layers and has determined that we're all worth doing over.

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.

What Should be the Christian View of Anime?Joe Muraguri
We will learn what Anime is and see what a Christian should consider before watching anime movies? We will also learn a little bit of Shintoism religion and hentai (the craze of internet pornography today).
5. “If your soul is healthy,
no external circumstance can destroy your life.
If your soul is unhealthy,
no external circumstance can redeem your life.”
― Dallas Willard
6. HEAVEN is not a reward for good behavior, but
the natural result of HUMAN RESTORATION
7. “The more we let God take us over, the more
truly ourselves we become - because He made
us. He invented us. He invented all the different
people that you and I were intended to be. It is
when I turn to Christ, when I give up myself to
His personality, that I first begin to have a real
personality of my own.”
10. Jesus continued: “There was a man who had
two sons. The younger one said to his father,
‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he
divided his property between them.
11. “Not long after that, the younger son got
together all he had, set off for a distant country
and there squandered his wealth in wild living.
After he had spent everything, there was a
severe famine in that whole country, and he
began to be in need.
12. So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of
that country, who sent him to his fields to feed
pigs. He longed to fill his stomach with the
pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave
him anything.
13. “When he came to his senses, he said, ‘How
many of my father’s hired servants have food
to spare, and here I am starving to death! I will
set out and go back to my father and say to
him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and
against you.
14. I am no longer worthy to be called your son;
make me like one of your hired servants.’ So he
got up and went to his father.
“But while he was still a long way off, his father
saw him and was filled with compassion for
him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around
him and kissed him.
15. “The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned
against heaven and against you. I am no longer
worthy to be called your son.’
“But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick!
Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a
ring on his finger and sandals on his feet.
16. Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a
feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was
dead and is alive again; he was lost and is
found.’ So they began to celebrate.
17. “Meanwhile, the older son was in the field.
When he came near the house, he heard music
and dancing. So he called one of the servants
and asked him what was going on.
18. ‘Your brother has come,’ he replied, ‘and your
father has killed the fattened calf because he
has him back safe and sound.’ “The older
brother became angry and refused to go in. So
his father went out and pleaded with him.
19. But he answered his father, ‘Look! All these
years I’ve been slaving for you and never
disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me
even a young goat so I could celebrate with my
friends.
20. But when this son of yours who has squandered
your property with prostitutes comes home,
you kill the fattened calf for him!’
“‘My son,’ the father said, ‘you are always with
me, and everything I have is yours.
21. But we had to celebrate and be glad, because
this brother of yours was dead and is alive
again; he was lost and is found.’”
Luke 15:11-32
23. “Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God,
But only he who sees takes off his shoes;
The rest sit round and pluck blackberries.”
― Elizabeth Barrett Browning
24. “Once the soul awakens, the search begins and you
can never go back. From then on, you are inflamed
with a special longing that will never again let you
linger in the lowlands of complacency and partial
fulfillment. The eternal makes you urgent. You are
loath to let compromise or the threat of danger hold
you back from striving toward the summit of
fulfillment.” ― John O'Donohue
25. You feel UNWORTHY – self-esteem, courage
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me Phil 3:14
Symptoms of Hell
26. You feel UNLOVED – relationships, alone
Jesus said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be
the very last, and the servant of all.” Mark 9:35
27. You feel ANXIOUS – security, fear, worry
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear,
because fear has to do with punishment. The one
who fears is not made perfect in love. 1 John 4:18
28. Heaven is not the DEFAULT DESTINATION
If you can’t stand DISCIPLESHIP here and now,
you won’t want it THERE AND THEN
29. Heaven must begin TODAY
Live today in light of a greater reality, Heaven – Be INSPIRED
30. Since you have been raised to new life with Christ, set
your sights on the realities of heaven, where Christ sits
in the place of honor at God’s right hand. Think about
the things of heaven, not the things of earth. Col 3:1-2
31. Heaven must begin TODAY
Live today in light of what is to come. - Be INTENTIONAL
32. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be
transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you
will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—
his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2
33. Heaven must begin TODAY
Live today in light of a greater reality, Heaven – Be INSPIRED
Live today in light of what is to come. - Be INTENTIONAL
Live the life of heaven in community – Make an IMPACT
34. Death is like your car…
It will take you where you want to go.
