HAPPY MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DAY!

“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy. But I tell you, love your enemies. Pray for those who treat you badly. If you do this, you will be children who are truly like your Father in heaven. He lets the sun rise for all people, whether they are good or bad. He sends rain to those who do right and to those who do wrong.

If you love only those who love you, why should you get a reward for that? Even the tax collectors do that. And if you are nice only to your friends, you are no better than anyone else. Even the people who don’t know God are nice to their friends. What I Am saying is that you must be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.”
Matthew 5:43-48 (ERV)

When I saw Him, I fell at His Feet as though dead. And He placed His Right Hand on me and said, “Do not be afraid; I Am The First and The Last” (absolute Deity, The Son Of God).
Revelation 1:17 (AMP)

This certain hope of being saved is a strong trustworthy anchor for our souls, connecting us with God Himself behind the sacred curtains of heaven, where Christ has gone ahead to plead for us from His position as our High Priest, with the honor and rank of Melchizedek.
Hebrews 6:19-20 (TLB)

HAVE YOU FALLEN FROM GRACE?

Be careful than no one fails to get God’s Grace. Be careful that no one loses their faith and becomes like a bitter weed growing among you. Someone like that can ruin your whole group.

If you are a thief, quit stealing. Instead, use your hands for good hard work, and then give generously to others in need.

So pay everyone what you owe them. Pay the taxes you owe, pay the duties you are charged, give respect to those you should respect, and honor those you should honor.
Romans 13:7 (CEB)

ARE YOU FEELING DIRTY BECAUSE OF PAST SINS?

We should live in the light, where God is. If we live in The Light, we have fellowship with each other, and The Blood Sacrifice of Jesus, God’s Son, washes away every sin and makes us clean.

If we say that we have no sin, we are fooling ourselves, and The Truth is not in us. But if we confess our sins, God will forgive us. We can trust God to do this. He always does what is right. He will make us clean from all the wrong things we have done.
I John 1:7-9 (ERV)
