Let us have grace, whereby we may serve GOD acceptably with reverance and godly fear.
For our GOD is a consuming fire.
Love the LORD with all your heart. Love your neighbor as yourself. Love your enemies.
Please pray the LORD's PRAYER and please read:
HEBREWS 12:12-29
12 So steady all weary hands and trembling knees
13 and make your crooked paths straight; then the injured limb will not be maimed, it will get better instead.
14 Seek peace with all people, and the holiness without which no one can ever see the Lord.
15 Be careful that no one is deprived of the grace of God and that no root of bitterness should begin to grow and make trouble; this can poison a large number.
16 And be careful that there is no immoral person, or anyone worldly minded like Esau, who sold his birthright for one single meal.
17 As you know, when he wanted to obtain the blessing afterwards, he was rejected and, though he pleaded for it with tears, he could find no way of reversing the decision.
18 What you have come to is nothing known to the senses: not a blazing fire, or gloom or total darkness, or a storm;
19 or trumpet-blast or the sound of a voice speaking which made everyone that heard it beg that no more should be said to them.
20 They could not bear the order that was given: If even a beast touches the mountain, it must be stoned.
21 The whole scene was so terrible that Moses said, 'I am afraid and trembling.'
22 But what you have come to is Mount Zion and the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem where the millions of angels have gathered for the festival,
23 with the whole Church of first-born sons, enrolled as citizens of heaven. You have come to God himself, the supreme Judge, and to the spirits of the upright who have been made perfect;
24 and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to purifying blood which pleads more insistently than Abel's.
25 Make sure that you never refuse to listen when he speaks. If the people who on earth refused to listen to a warning could not escape their punishment, how shall we possibly escape if we turn away from a voice that warns us from heaven?
26 That time his voice made the earth shake, but now he has given us this promise: I am going to shake the earth once more and not only the earth but heaven as well.
27 The words once more indicate the removal of what is shaken, since these are created things, so that what is not shaken remains.
28 We have been given possession of an unshakeable kingdom. Let us therefore be grateful and use our gratitude to worship God in the way that pleases him, in reverence and fear.
29 For our God is a consuming fire.
GOD BLESS US ALL,

All glory to Thee, O Lord! Please bless this message as per Thy Will. In Jesus’ Holy Name, Amen
bump.
God’s gift of grace was his Son ( not David’s linage) .If we believe that Jesus is the Son of God we enter the Kingdom of Heaven.There is no condemnation in Jesus so there is no Judgment at all. Why would we have judgment when we have already been saved?
Marygonzo,
Are you asking me a question or is this a statement in question form??
Just want to know before I do any reply.
Love to you and all people in the holy precious name of JESUS CHRIST who lives and reigns among us forever and ever. AMEN!!
GOD BLESS US ALL
AMEN! As the WORD is already blessed.
GOD BLESS US ALL,
No I’m stating doctrine and the Gospel of Jesus and love to you too. So many misunderstand the salvation set out in John 3:16. I’m sure you are not one of those poor souls.
marygonzo,
okay. No worries. Everyone has a different “ writing style”, so this is why I asked.
Yes, I understand what you mean by people dont understand.
Yet, may we never forget that JESUS came for the lowly. So at one time, I was definitely one of those “ poor souls” (as you wrote).
This is why I praise HIS holy name for the change HE has made in my life and so many others that HE will change in the seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years to come.
The world is not over yet, so, JESUS is still jumping in peoples’ hearts.
May we love everyone as HE ordered.
May we pray for others.
May we never forget we are all sinners, and can do nothing without HIM.
May we have patience for one another.
We are all a work in progress.
Keep going in HIM.
Love to you and all in the holy precious name of JESUS.
GOD BLESS US ALL,
