Jesus' love and grace will set you free to soar.

We are made good in a practical (not just positional) sense through our faith in Christ and His Grace.

Jesus gives Himself: love, forgiveness, truth and freedom, through His body tormented, His blood shed, and His soul abandoned by God.

These are not just words, but spiritual, emotional and mental realities that can be verified by you.

When we forgive, we immediately get released from the chains that torment us emotionally.

We cannot really forgive without Jesus and a spiritual connection to Him.

Forgiveness is an ongoing process, as we all continue to sin and be sinned against.

You will be free of depression and fear the very moment you cry out to Jesus in prayer in total sincerity of heart. The very moment you forgive everyone of everything, including forgiving yourself of everything, you will be free.

If you don't forgive, our God-less culture, following Satan's lies, has a solution for you. It will tell you that you have a "right" to your anger and unforgiveness. (!!) (I've heard this many times. Do we also have the right to a large, angry, flesh-eating pig chewing our guts out?)

The anti-Christian world will tell you via commercials on TV, with all the air of false medical authority that you have a "chemical imbalance" in your brain. They give you a number to call and a doctor who is in on it gives you a diagnosis, and after 15-minute diagnosis throws you some dangerous high-priced (patented) pills that you must take three times daily for the rest of your life. Sounds like a money-maker me!

Humbling yourself, turning to Jesus, confessing your sin, receiving His grace or forgiving everyone is never mentioned as the solution.

(There is zero scientific evidence that such "imbalances" exist as a cause. Chemical Imbalances are as much a fantasy as the unproven fantasy of Macro-Evolution.)

Both of these lies are designed by Satan to remove God and spiritual realities and responsibility from our lives. Godless psychologists advocate these completely unscientific ideas because they do not believe in God or forgiveness or sin, and they do not believe in the human soul.

When we do not fully forgive everyone else and ourselves 100%, we inject ourselves with the truly terrifying poisons of resentment, anger, fear, hate, depression, pain, guilt and, worst of all, sinful pride.

Psychologically, holding onto unforgiveness, anger, hatred, or resentment is like rolling up your car windows and trapping a huge, vicious, sharp-toothed, rabid, flesh-eating pig inside.

Unforgiveness leads to anger, and anger leads to hate and hate leads to the most terrifying fear and depression and pain you can imagine--because you are doing it to you, and you know how to do it best.

It eventually becomes far worse than whatever you suffered that you are not forgiving!

Jesus said in the book of Matthew (Matthew 18:34,35) that if we do not forgive others that God would send the "tormentors" to torment us. Those tormentors are fear, anxiety, confusion, emptiness, painful bad feelings, depression and sickness.

What we need is a close fellowship relationship with the God of love, the God of all grace and comfort.

We need more than just to believe in Jesus and be saved. We need, by prayer and obedience to His Word, walking in the light, living in His grace, and fellowshipping with other believers, to have a close fellowship relationship with Him.

***This "close fellowship relationship" is NOT achieved by merely believing and being saved.***

~~~

Money is not Love.

Food is not Love.

Romantic relationships and sex can never fill the void of the God-hunger within us.

Drugs can't do it.

These things can never fill the deepest needs of your soul.

***We need to live in God's unconditional love and grace, consciously, every day of our lives.***

Your responsibility, within God's grace.

Choose your close friends carefully, as you will become like them.

Renew your thoughts with God's truth. Your emotions will follow and then your actions will follow, and then your life will be transformed.

You are responsible for your life, under God,--don't blame it on anyone else--so connect to God to handle your responsibilities, and use His grace, your will, and the talents and natural abilities that He gave you.

Ask for His mind, His wisdom and Jesus will direct you to certain verses and ideas from His Word.

A New life-- transformed by God's grace, God's love and obedience to God.

You can do all things through Christ who will strengthen you.

You live by faith in Christ and by the Spirit of God.

God has always been reaching out to all people through: the creation and human conscience,
through the moral law and the awareness of sin,
or through the Gospel message,
and through death and thoughts about the afterlife,
since shortly after the earth was created.

His creation, or His Gospel preaching, or His Book the Bible, or His radio and TV shows, or His books and magazine articles, or His Internet sites, or His emails, or His word-of-mouth, or His angels or His dreams, have gone out to all tribes, nations, tongues and languages.

God wants everyone to be saved from the Hell our sins deserve.

God wants everyone to go to Heaven.

God has infinite wisdom and He is infinitely loving.

Guard your heart. Love people, let them in--people who are not hostile to your pearl of great price: Jesus.

Get Jesus and forgive, or you will become a self-punisher.
If you don't forgive, maybe you will become
an
overeater,
a money-spender,
a Money-worshiper,
a slob,
a self-defeater,
a greedy materialist,
a violent brawler,
a drinker,
a drugger,
a blasphemer,
an angry fool,
a rebel,
a cusser,
a nihilistic philosopher,
a prideful intellectual,
a deluded occultist,
a science-worshiper,
a sexually immoral person,
a hermit,
an angry atheist,
a works-doing religionist,
a wrist-cutter,
a depressive,
a prideful fool,
a sex addict
or
a suicide.

Or, you may try to avoid Jesus' truth and forgiveness by getting out in nature, cooking healthy meals, saving the environment, building model boats or golfing.

The result is the same.

A life without God leads to the place without God: Hell.

~~~

All good things come from God.

Appreciate everything.

The truth is preserved in words.

Obeying First John 1:9 cleans us off when we sin.

Walk in the light and depart from doing evil as God gives you the grace to do so.

You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.

Clean and free, healthy and strong, joyful and happy.

~~~

The Bible says:

Trust God's sovereignty and providence.

There is no fear in love.

The truth will set you free.

To the pure all things are pure.

All promises of God are "Yes" in Christ.

Where the Spirit of God is, there is liberty--freedom.

I am dead to sin and alive to God--I believe the facts.

Jesus has set me free.

I am free indeed.

I am pure, holy, and blameless in Christ.

I am not under the domination of sin, because I am under God's grace and I follow his Spirit.

~~~

Humility.

Happiness is an inside job.

Open your heart.

Guard your heart.

Open your heart again.

Throw the filthy moldy poisoning rottenness out of your soul: forgive everyone of everything, including forgiving yourself of everything.

Love God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind, and love other people as you should be loving yourself--unconditionally.

Don't worry--trust God your Father. The Bible says that your Father knows all of your needs (physical, emotional and spiritual) before you ask Him.

People who do not forgive have an aura of misery, darkness, and anger that floats around them. Unpleasant.

Anger, unforgiveness, hatred and resentment are like arsenic--even an extremely small amount can torment your soul.

Unforgiveness leads to torment and living death. God promises this.

Confess it and get rid of it.

Go to Jesus to get His power to forgive and to learn how to love yourself and other people and progressively live the abundant life of love that Jesus offers.

forgiveness>justification>love>grace>truth>security
>satisfaction>peace>joy>
confession>healing>responsibility>
obedience>growth>unconditional-love>fellowship relationship>blessing>

Money can do many good things for people. More important than anything, it can buy food, clothing and shelter.

Therefore, money is good.

Money is needed.

Survival.

From there, it must decrease in psychological value after these most pressing needs are met.

It can buy some time off, a retirement and a vacation.

It can buy medical care and provide things for hobbies.

But it can't buy health directly.

It can't stop the accident from happening that the insurance money covers.

It can't stop the disability or pain that the accident causes.

It can't buy peace of mind directly.

It can't make you enjoy your time off.

It can't make you enjoy your vacation.

It can't make you enjoy your retirement.

It can't extend your life when it's your time to go.

And it sure as Hell won't give you peace.

And you definitely can't take with you.

Somewhere in our thinking, we get the idea that a ton of money can make us happy.

But it can't.

Worst of all, even if you work hard and pile up a stack of it, "you can't take it with you when you die."

When we die, someone else will get our stack of money that has been saved up, and they may waste it without regard to our values, or care about our hard work.

This is very frustrating for people who cannot find anything outside themselves that they want to give money to.

This is why the Bible calls money "deceptive." It can't do many of the things it promises.

Jesus said to keep our lives free from the love of money, and be on guard against all kinds of greed.

Greed for money is the root of all kinds of evils. People will do crazy and immoral things to get a lot of money.

But money can't buy a lot of the most important things.

Money can't buy you love.

Money can't buy you friendship.

Money can't buy you God's forgiveness for your sins against His law.

Money can't buy you Heaven when you die.

I wouldn't say money is worthless, because it is needed for survival.

But it sure is worthless for a lot of things, isn't it?

Be humble,

be pure,

be self-disciplined,

be merciful,

be reverent,

be wise,

and

be sincere.

Love God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength, and love others the same way you (should) love yourself: unconditionally.

Get rid of all anger, sinful or not.

Avoid fornication.

Avoid lust and avoid indulging in lustful fantasies: to do so is to commit adultery in your heart and pollute your soul, weaken your romantic relationship, and to allow demons to war against your soul.

Forgive,

love unconditionally,

bless,

do good to,

and pray for your personal and national enemies. (If you do not forgive everyone of everything completely, then God promises to send the tormentors of guilt, fear, depression, confusion, and anxiety against you.)

(When you forgive, these things disappear immediately.)

Confess your ongoing sins, and be restored to fellowship with God immediately, over and over. 1st John 1:9.

Forgive those who sin against you, every day, without limit.

Do your personal prayers,

and give to charity,

and personally fast:

SECRETLY.

Forgive everyone of everything. Also: forgive yourself of everything.

Give generously to the work of the church and to the poor and needy. Don't stop at 10% if you have been massively blessed financially.

Do not worry: your heavenly Father knows what you need and will give it to you.

Be diligent in your work and work hard, to the glory of God, using the talents and abilities He has given to you.

Do not judge hypocritically. Do not judge people's hearts or motives.

But spiritually judge everything by it's spirit, whether it is good or evil.

Do not continue to tell the truth to evil people who resist the truths of God. (Jesus calls them "dogs.")

Ask and God will give to you. (Provision, the Holy Spirit, assurance of salvation, protection: whatever you need.)

Be on your guard against false teachers in the Christian church, and outside it.

Believe in Jesus for salvation, if you have not already.

Be wise: build your house on the rock of these, Christ's teachings.

Sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law but under grace: God's unconditional love, and His irrevocable, guaranteed gift of Heaven.

Follow the Spirit and experience an intimate relationship with God. This is more than just knowing that you are saved.

Grow in grace, grow in doing good things, purify your heart, straighten out your mind, and grow in the knowledge of the truth, in God's unconditional love.

4) Good people saved by grace and evil people who reject God will live together, socially intermixed, (even in our churches!) until the end, and then the two kinds of people will be separated.

29) All rich people will go to Hell. Just kidding, I just wanted to see if you were still paying attention! However, many of those who "have it made" and are filled with opulence, wealth, comfort and luxury in this life will be suffering intensely in the next life. And many people who are down at the soup kitchens today will be in heavenly mansions tomorrow, while many mega-rich people who rival Bill Gates' as far as money goes won't be able to find a drop of water to drink in Hell! Everything depends on whether they have Jesus as their Savior. Notice how many of Jesus' parables have to do with money.
The rich man and Lazarus:

These were the stories Jesus told to impart the highest truths. It seems that a strong theme of most of Jesus' parables is that believers should work hard for God because Jesus is coming back to earth again soon to reward those who have served Him, as well as to welcome all believers into the everlasting joy and pleasure of Heaven. May we all live according to these teachings and be richly blessed by God both now and in eternity.
In Jesus' Name, Amen.
