The Devotional

What does Papa “J” Say?

Adultery, fornication and same sex relationships are immoral, improper an condemned in the Word of God. This whole chapter of Proverbs speaks clearly to those who practice such abominations! Proverbs 5:1-23

“Those who won our independence believed liberty to be the secret of happiness and courage to the secret of liberty. Louis D. Brandeis (Courage to pray is no secret. Pray for this nation, our independence depends on prayer).

The people of the world are seeking a one world rule that would eliminate war, open the door to prosperity and provide peace. The world also seeks to be delivered from crime, violence and death. Song after song is written and sung by various groups. Rappers; country western, pop and others. All have a hit or two about the conditions facing the world. If you take the time to listen to the words and not just the tune or rhythm you will notice that the world is starving after righteousness. But righteousness seems always to be – just out of reach for all of us. We could also look at the religions of the world. Who could count the number of religions on this planet. NONE OF THEM WORK! So if this is true, then it is obviously TRUE and we simply ignore it. The Word of God teaches us that God is not interested in our religious attempts to please HIM. The Word of God also teaches us that God is pleased only in His Son, Jesus Christ. Matthew 3:17. God is also pleased by those who accept His Son as Savior and LORD. 1 Peter 1:16-21. Decide NOW as a nation to return to that personal relationship with God and be the LAMP of truth that we once were to the world around us. Psalm 119:105

The Gospel of John

John 11:1-16 The Bible is a volume of letters, books, epistles, gospels, histories, poems and literature. It is written in Hebrew, Aramaic and Common Greek. All of the writers came from every kind of background. They were; farmers, laborers, servants, a doctor of medicine and Prophets, Priests and Kings. All of these men and women had one message. It is the message of the love of God for His Creation (you and me) and the Creator (His Son Jesus).

This is not the same message we hear from religions or men and women who do not know love. This is what I mean and I pray that my explanation will not be confusing or complicated. People who do not understand the love of the Bible speak darkness into their words because the only viewpoint they have as a reference is of what they love. John 3:19. I want us to see that mankind in it's fallen conditions does not comprehend the Eternal Word of God, which is love for His Creation. John 1:1-13 GOD IS LOVE, if you do not understand this then you do not know love. ! John 4:7-11

Do not let yourself be deceived by people who do not understand that God (Jesus) does not need a mother, a wife, a brother, a sister or children. He has all these from those who understand the Love of God and do His will. Mark 3:31-35.
