Rejoice In The Lord

Luke 1:26-38
A Prayer For Peace.
Eternal God, in whose perfect Kingdom no sword is drawn but the sword of righteousness, no strenght known but the strength of love:So mightily spread abroad Your Spirit, that all peoples may be gathered under the banner of the Prince of Peace, as children of one Father; to whom be dominion and glory, now and forever. Amen.

Do not criticize one another, my brothers and sisters.If you criticize fellow-Christians or judge them, you criticize the Law and judge it.If you judge the law, then you are no longer one who obeys the Law, but one who judges it. God is the only lawgiver and judge. He alone can save and destroy,who do you think you are, to judge someone else.
JAMES: 11-13

Jesus the way to the Father,
"Do not be worried and upset,"Jesus told them, believe in God and believe also in me. There are many rooms in my Father's house and I am going to prepare a place for you.I would not tell you this if it were not so. And after I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to myself, so that you will be where I am. You know the way that leads to the place where I am going."Thomas said to him, "Lord, we do not know where you are going so how do we know the way to get there."Jesus answered him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life;no one goes to the Father except by me. Now that you have known me,"He said to them, you will know my Father also, and from now on you do know him and you have seen him."
JOHN 14:1-8

Judgement by Jesus'Words.
Jesus said in a loud voice,"Whoever beieves in me believes not only in me but also in him who sent me.Whoever sees me sees also him who sent me. I have come into the world as light, so that everyone who believes in me should not remain in the darkness.If anyone hears my message and does not obey it, I will not judge him. I came, not to judge the world, but to save it. Those who reject me and do not accept have one who will judge them. The words I have spoken will be their judge on the last day!This is true, because I have not spoken on my own authority,but the Father who sent me has commanded what I must say and speak. And I know that his command brings eternal life. What I say then,is what the Father has told me to say."
JOHN 12:44-50
I will praise your name unceasingly, LordI remembered your mercy, Lord, and your deeds from earlier times, how you deliver those who wait for you patiently,and save them from the clutches of their enemies. And I send up my plea from the earth, I begged to be delivered from death, I called on the Lord, the Father of my Lord, "Do not desert me the days of ordeal, in times of my helplessness against the proud. I will praise your name unceasingly, and gratefully sing it's praises." And my plea was heard, for you saved me from destruction, and delivered me from that time of evil. And therefore I will thank you and praise you, and bless the name of the Lord. Ecclesiasticus 51:8-12 |

Christ Jesus loves you.God knows how much I miss you, loving you as Christ Jesus loves you. My prayer is that your love for one another may increase deepening your preception so that you can always rocognise what is best. This will help you become pure and blameless, and prepare you for the day of Christ, when you will reach the perfect goodness which Jesus Christ produces in us for the glory and praise of God. Philippines 1:8-11 Do not delay your return to the Lord. Do not give your heart to your money, or say,"With this I am self sufficient." Do not be led by your appetites and energy to follow the passions of your heart. And do not say, "Who has authority over me?" for the Lord will certainly be avenged on you. Do not say,"I sinned,and what happened to me?" for the Lord's forbearance is long. Do not be so sure of forgiveness that you add sin to sin. And do not say,"His compassion is great, he will forgive me my many sins"; for with him are both mercy and wrath, and his rage bears heavy on sinners. Do not delay your return to the Lord, do not put it off day after day; for suddenly the Lord'swrath will blaze out, and at the time of vengence you will be utterly destroyed. Do not set your heart of ill-gotten gains, they will be of no use to you on the day of desaster. Ecclesiasticus 5:1-8 |

Forgive each other as readily as God forgave you in ChristDo not grieve the Holy Spirit of God who has marked you with his seal for you to be set free when the day comes.Never have grudges against others, or lose your temper,or raise your voice to anybody,or call each other names,or allow any sort of spitefulness. Be friends with one another, and kind, forgiving each other as readily as God forgave you in Christ. Try, then, to imitate God, as children of his that he loves, and follow Christ by loving as he loved you, giving himself up in out place as a fragrant offering and a sacrifice to God. EPHESIANS 4:1-6 |

Keep the Lord company, talk to HimJesus came to a village, and a woman named Matha welcomed him into her home. She had a sister called Mary, who sat down at the Lord's feet and listened to to him speaking."Lord, do you not care that my sister is leaving me to do all the serving all by myself?Please tell her to help me"But the Lord answered:"Martha, Martha,"he said "you worry and fret about so many things, and yet few are needed, indeed only one. It is Mary who has chosen the better part;it is not to be taken away from her." LUKE 10:38-42 |

The blood of Christ purifies us from all sinThis is what we have heard from Jesus Christ, and the message that we are announcing to you: God is light;there is no darkness in him at all. If we say that we are in union with God while we are living in darkness, we are lying beacuse we are not living the truth. But if we live our lives in light, as he is the light, we are in union with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. If we say we have no sin in us, we are deceiving ourselves and refusing to admit the truth; but if we acknowledge our sins, then God who is faithful and just will forgive our sins and purify us from everything that is wrong. To say that we have never sinned is to call God a liar and to show that his word is not in us I am writing this, my children, to stop you sinning; but if anyone should sin, we have our advocate with the Father,Jesus Christ, who is just; he is the sacrifice that takes our sins away, and not only ours, but the whole world's. 1 John 1:5-2:2 |

Apostles Of ChristYou should think of us as Christ's servants, who have been put in charge of God's secret truths. The one thing required of such servant is that they be faithful to their master |
