Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to all!
Extraordinary virgin birth of Emmanuel, God with us
Real everlasting salvation He has brought for us
Round about two thousand years ago now
Yes, Merry Christmas!

Christ was born to die for us
His blood was shed on the cross to
Redeem us from sin, death, and Hell
Isn't it amazing grace?
Such a sacrifice for us
To make us God's children and heirs.
May we worship and adore Him
As we meditate on Christmas.
Savior of Humankind, we love, worship and adore You!

Joyeux Noël!

Joyeux Noël!
O Monde entier!
Y-a t-il quelqu'un qui ne connait pas Jésus Christ?
Eternel est Son Amour!
Unissons-nous tous en Lui
Xclamons Sa grandeur, Son pardon et Son amour partout

Noël, oui, Joyeux Noël!
O Monde entier!
Exprimons notre joie et reconnaissance envers Notre Sauveur
L'Homme-Dieu et Le Dieu-Homme

Honoring our parents

God commands us to honor our parents (Exodus 2:12; Ephesians 6:2-3; Colossians 3:20). How can we do so? Here are some examples-

Examples on honoring live parents:

Accept them
Believe in them and be loyal and faithful to them
Care for them 
Do good to them
Encourage them
Forgive them
Grow in Christ under their authority
Honor and help them as much as they need
Imitate their virtues and qualities
Joyfully serve them 
Know and appreciate them
Learn from them and love them
Mourn with them when they mourn
Never despise or mock or mistreat them
Obey them under God
Pray for them
Quarrel not with them as far as possible
Respect and revere them
Support and serve them wholeheartedly.
Treat them well
Uphold and uplift them
Value them
Wait upon them patiently
Xcel to their honor
Yield to them in Christ
Zoom in on their qualities and strengths, not their weaknesses

Examples on honoring deceased parents:

Appreciate their past lives
Be thankful and grateful for them
Celebrate their lives and cherish the good sweet memories
Defend their reputation
Execute their will as promptly as possible
Follow their good legacy
Grow on in Christ
Honor their names
Improve upon their achievements, if possible
Just let go and release any past unresolved conflicts to God
Keep not any record of their wrong but forgive completely 
Learn from their past mistakes as well as their successes
Move on forward in life
Never forsake their memory
Openly speak well of them 
Press on in Christ even without them with you
Quit living in the past
Remember them affectionately
Respect and revere their names
Support their good causes, if possible
Turn any past hurt over to Christ
Uphold their names and reputation
Visit their graves from time to time, if possible
Wallow not in grief forever but wake up to reality and life here
Xcel to their honor and reputation
Yield to Christ until He reunites you and them in Heaven
Zoom in on God who created your parents too

Response to Our God

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

According to Ephesians 1-3, Christians have been

-chosen before the foundation of the world
-predestined to eternal abundant life
-adopted as God's beloved children
-redeemed from their sinful state
-forgiven of all their sins
-sealed with God's Holy Spirit
-made alive with Christ
-given victory over self, sin, Satan, and death
-seated with Christ in the heavens
-reconciled with God and with each other
-created for good works
-granted direct access to God Himself
-made God's dwelling place
-brought into Christ's new body, God's Church of Jews and Gentiles equally accepted in Christ
-made God's inheritance
-firmly rooted and established in God's love

Therefore, according to Ephesians 4-6, Christians ought to live a lifestyle that is worthy of the calling they have received from God. Their lifestyle should be characterized by:

-humility, gentleness, patience, acceptance, love, diligence, unity, peace, hope, and faith (Ephesians 4:1-6);
-grace and service (Ephesians 4:7-12);
-true knowledge, and true speech (in love) (Ephesians 4:13-16);
-avoidance of unholy, impure, immoral living but instead living in the light, purity, holiness and righteousness (Ephesians 4:17-24);
-truth, self-control, honesty, and purity of speech (Ephesians 4:25-29);
-kindness, compassion, and forgiveness (Ephesians 4:30-32);
-love (Ephesians 5:1-2);
-purity and thanksgiving (Ephesians 5:3-7);
-light, goodness, righteousness, truth (Ephesians 5:8-14);
-wisdom and carefulness (Ephesians 5:15-16);
-understanding what the Lord's will is (Ephesians 5:17);
-being filled with the Holy Spirit and gratitude (Ephesians 5:18-20);
-mutual submission in the fear of Christ (Ephesians 5:21);
-love and unity (Ephesians 5:22-33);
-respect, obedience, and honor (Ephesians 6:1-9);
-strong stand in Christ, and intercession (Ephesians 6:10-20)

"O Lord God, we pray that we will always abide in You so that Your Spirit in us would enable us to live the true genuine Christian lifestyle, which is our only appropriate response to Your marvelous salvation through Jesus Christ Our Lord and Savior. In His Name, we pray. Amen."

Onward, Forward and Upward in Christ

As born-again Christian believers, we are united in Christ
As a united body and army of the Living True God
Onward, forward and upward we move, never backward
Fighting the good fight of faith
Yes, united we stand, divided we fall

We represent the true unity in diversity
We are everywhere in Our Father's world
We are of various colors and cultures, ages and languages
We are men and women, boys and girls and children
We are the family of God, the universal Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ

We have decided to follow the King of kings and the Lord of lords
No turning back, No turning back
The world behind us, the cross before us
No turning back, no turning back
Though no one joins us, still we'll follow
No turning back, no turning back

In the Name of Jesus, we have the victory
In the Name of Jesus, Satan has to flee
We are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Savior
No weapon formed against us shall prosper
We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us
Nothing is impossible to Our Mighty God!

Be still and know that He is God Almighty
Come, let us praise and adore Him
Come, let us bow down before Him
Majesty, worship His majesty
He is worthy of our praise and adoration
What a mighty God we serve
The angels bow before Him and adore Him

He, Jesus Christ, Our risen Lord is coming again
Soon and very soon, He will be back
Not as Savior this time but as the Judge of all humankind
Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that He is Lord
To the praise, honor and glory of Our Father God
Who shall rule and reign over the whole universe
Forever and evermore throughout eternity

O Come Lord Jesus, come
Maranatha!

The King of kings and
The Lord of lords!

Ensam en Christ, vers l'avenir en Christ!

Why trust in no other but Christ Jesus for eternal life and Heaven

We need to put our faith in Jesus Christ and none other because HE, Jesus Christ:

-was sinless
-was both fully man and fully God
-was perfect in character 
-did all kinds of miracles
-healed the sick and raised the dead
-taught life truths with absolute authority
-loved us and even His enemies sacrificially unto death
-prayed to His Father to forgive His persecutors and killers
-died on the cross for our sins
-rose again on the Third Day
-ascended to Heaven
-is coming back
-is the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to Father God except through Him (John 14:6)
-has transformed positively the lives of millions of people
-has answered the prayers of millions of people
-is incomparable, unique, and absolutely outstanding
-is the Living Word of God 
-has accomplished all prophecies about Him
-witnesses to our spirits, hearts, and consciences
-has led, guided and directed millions and millions of souls
-is to us for good what none other can ever be.

May we all put our faith in Christ now and forevermore. Amen.

In such a time as this

Dear brothers and sisters,

In such a time as this, we do not know what the future holds but we do know who holds the future. It is, of course, Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Let's trust in Him now and forevermore. He is the Way, the Truth and the Life. He is the Resurrection and the Life. We are nothing without Him. We can do nothing without Him. Through Him, we can do all things. Nothing is impossible to Him. All things are possible in Him.

Jesus Christ is the Holy God of the whole universe. He is the sovereign God of every tribe, people and nation.

Remember ye, forget ye not.
Fear not! Fear not! Fear not! 
Honor Christ and He will honor you!

Bless you, dear brother!
Bless you, dear sister!

In Jesus Name, Amen.

Lost and found!

I once was lost in ignorance, false religions, Self/flesh, the world, and sinfulness. Then one day, O glorious day, My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ found and rescued me from Satan to God, from Hell to Heaven.

O Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

I'm so happy and blessed and favored. I enjoy the eternal abundant life that My Creator designed for me. I rejoice in My Lord now and forevermore.

All praise, honor, and glory be to My God!

Because He Lives...

Because Jesus Christ is risen and lives forevermore
We, who are born again in Him have a living hope
We have eternal abundant life through Him
We will enjoy and experience eternal bliss and felicity in Heaven
Together with God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
The angels, and all the saints of all times
And our dear beloved ones overthere.

Because Jesus Christ is risen and lives forevermore
We, who are born again in Him have victory
Over sin, self, Satan, the world and death
We have the power to love, forgive, bear loss, pain and suffering
Through the Holy Spirit indwelling us
We can endure trials and temptations and
We overcome them through Christ Our lord and Savior

Because Jesus Christ is risen and lives forevermore
We who are born again in Him are more than conquerors!
We are anointed, favored and blessed!
We are a blessing to God, to our family and friends!
All praise, honor and glory be to God and Our risen Savior!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Amen and amen.

Friends, let's take heed!

The Haiti earthquake has shocked the whole world but not Our God. Nothing takes Our God by surprise. He knew everything beforehand. He is omniscient. We are to learn whatever lessons we can learn from this great tragedy that occurred a few days ago. May we sympathize and empathize with and pray for all the victims' families and loved ones.

The lessons that we have been reminded of are the following, among others:

-Human life is fragile. It’s like a mist or vapor. It can disappear suddenly, overnight (James 4:14).

-We must make sure we are ready to die anytime, to enter eternity at any moment, to face Our God at a moment notice (Hebrews 9:27).

-It is absolutely vital to be born again in Jesus Christ to ensure our eternal security, our place in Heaven throughout eternity (John 3:3, 7).

Let us plead with you to make sure that you’ve repented of your sins and received Jesus Christ as Your personal Lord and Savior (John 3:16).

For those of us who are already in Christ Jesus, Our Lord and Savior, may we actively share His Good news of the Gospel to others while we still can, before it is too late. (John 3:16; 14:6)

Thank you. God loves you. So do we.
