"WHOM ARE WE?" PART 2

Many, many centuries after that, God sent his son to recover what
it has been lost and this is called: Redemption!
Redemption is to buy again what it was lost!
Jesus told the devil: I want to recover  everything you got after
the sin of Adam and Eve in Paradise!
The devil started to laugh and said: You? 
But if you don’t have anything to pay for it, you don’t even have 
a stone on which you could rest your head, but listen to me he said,
if you really want to buy it, it has a very high price: Your blood!
Your blood will be the price!
All right, Jesus said: with my own blood I will buy again every-
thing that it was lost!
My Father is the true owner, He was the one offended with the 
sins, and with my blood I will cancel the debt and give freedom
to all those that were enemies of my Father because of sin!
And you have to return all your possessions to me!
Ha, Ha, Let’s see if you can do it!  And Jesus Christ sacrificed 
Himself  to the Almighty God his Father to redeem the world!
The devil was laughing when he heard Jesus to give his last breath, 
and said: Just like I said everything continues being mine!
However, he stop laughing when at the third day, Jesus came back 
to life among the dead to live eternally!
Jesus recovered the lost Paradise, along with all those that repented 
asked the Eternal God for the forgiveness of their sins, and the sal-
vation of their souls.
This is the Salvation of Jesus Christ for all those who  want to re-
nounce of the life of sin and believe in the Savior of their souls 
Jesus Christ who gives to everyone who believes in Him a new and 
eternal life because the one we actually have, has an expiration date!
That is why we have to look for God as I was looking for the money
in the park because all  those that we have not accepted Jesus as our 
Savior, we still belong to the previous owner: The devil!
Have you accepted in your life at Jesus as your Lord and Savior?
Life in the world is short, very short but we try to hold it so strongly 
that it happens to us like when we try to squeeze the soap in the 
shower, it escapes from our hands.
But when we voluntary stop living to serve the “god money” and if 
we put our lives at the feet of Christ,
we born again…

"WHOM ARE WE?" PART 1

 One day, I found myself in a park and I realized that I lost the 
money after I cashed my working check.
I looked all over for it, and I couldn’t find anything until I heard 
a woman telling her husband: Look love, I found some money!
Oh nice he said, are there more?
Then I came and took the money from her hands in an unfriendly 
way and I said: It is mine, I had it after I cashed my check, look 
she said in a sweet manner: Here are more!
And she gave it to me! Little by little I recovered the most of it!
and I gave the lady some,  here, this is yours I said, you won it!
And then they left! After that, I started to think: Oh God; what 
am I doing?
I was looking for that money as if it would be the only thing on 
earth that I care about!
But life is much, much more important than money!
Because we leave this world and everything else stays behind!
Then why do we do it?
We do it because we do not know how to appreciate the real value of
things, and life for sure is much more important than money, however
it looks like we love money more than life, and life more than God!
In the same dream, I heard a voice saying: I’m going to sell your soul!
I was scared and woke up and started to think: Who was that voice? 
And who is going to sale me; and to whom?
In reality, it comes a question: Who are we, and to whom do we belong?
Do we belong to God, or to someone else?
And after reading the Bible for a long time, I came with some answers:
When God created Adam and Eve, God gave the whole world to Adam 
to dominate it!
To name all the creation of God and to control and enjoy everything in it!
Adam was the Master of all!
But after Adam, and Eve, sin, everything was lost and passed to the hands 
of the one who pushed Eve to commit the sin: The devil!
Now, the Master of everything, kingdoms, animals and also human beings
passed to the hands of the devil whether we like it or not!
But that is not just!
They sin, not us!

"ON A CROSS"

 

 

 
 


With open arms on a bloody cross
With hands and feet pierced with nails,
And a crown of thorns, 
Jesus died to conquer for us: Salvation!

Tears of blood rolled down his cheeks,
In his eyes revealed the anguish of his heart,
On his countenance reflected the agony of his soul,
And from his throat emerged a desperation shout:

Forgive them Lord, don’t know what they’re doing.
Forgive them Lord: don’t know who I am.
Into thy hands I commend my spirit, 
He said at his last breath, and died!

I believe in Christ, in his life, in his death, 
And in his Resurrection!
Guide my Lord. Guide my steps to find your Way, 
And give me strength to follow Him!

Light my steps so I could see,
And love the Lord and serve people,
And not stumble in darkness, 
And fall.

Immerse me in the teachings of your Holy Spirit,
so I could learn and whatever bad I have can disappear,
And when everything comes to an end,
Thanks to your Grace in us, we could live with you!
Forever!

THANK YOU LORD!

"THE BATTERY"

 


What happens if we disconnect the battery of our car, and 
store it in the garage?
Little by little the positive energy starts leaking slowly until 
it gets completely empty, discharged, dead!
If we want to use it again, this is if it’s not absolutely  dead, 
we have to recharge it of the positive energy that leaked out!
The same thing happens with us, when we abandon ourselves
and stop using our muscles, which are the charger of the ba-
ttery of our body!
What happens?
Well, our muscles begin getting flaccid, weak, the muscles 
of our stomach stretches, and we eat more,  gaining weight,
stopping from us the positive energy that makes us strong,
putting us in a risk of getting sick because our immune sys-
tem gets weak.
Our body’s battery gets charge by exercising our muscles 
which are the charger, we have to  keep it fully charged!
Our soul and spirit charger is different, it begins to dis-
charge, when we walk away from God, filling our battery
with a negative energy that make us disobedient  to God!
Our charger of positive energy, is in the Word of God, and
far away from it, our prayers start getting scarce until com-
pletely stop!  What can we do?
First, let’s get closer to God to charge positively our soul 
and spirit, and then, we could realize our need for God!
We have to exercise our body with our muscles!
and our mind with the Word of God!
Because remember:

“Mens sana en corpore sano”
“Healthy mind in healthy body”

Let’s abandon all negativity, 
and rejoice everyday praising the Lord!

SMILE!
GOD LOVES YOU!

"TO LOVE AND TO SERVE"

 

The same way that inside the fruit is the seed, inside sin, is the
punishment for it, when you break the Commandments of God!
But listen to this: Inside Grace, is forgiveness!
Sin is the forbidden fruit that waters our mouth and no matter
we know we are going to be punish, we keep swimming in it!
God is faithful we say, He will forgive us!
But don’t forget: He is faithful, but He is also Just, and chastises 
our disobedience!
Why are we so stubborn?
Why do we continue ignoring God’s Commandments?
When we disobey God, He opens the closet in which He keeps 
the rod stick to punish us!
In the Law there is no forgiveness if we do not obey them all!
If we break one, we break them all!
It is a righteous Law, and we are more crooked than a mountain 
road because of sin!
We are like a tree that grows up crooked, and never will be able 
to get straight, right?
Wrong! Because for God there is nothing impossible!
But first we have to ask Him to help us out!

My God: I know it’s not going to be easy for you to strait me out,
but please, help me! I really want to stop sinning, so I could reach 
your promises of an eternal life in heaven with you!
I took a Bible and start reading it, and learned that the Law does 
not forgive us and God wanted to save us, that is why He sent his 
only Son to die on a cross for us, and put his Holy Spirit in our 
hearts so we could be able to obey God serving people!
Loving God is to obey Him!
Loving people is to serve them!

Listen to this:
“He who is not good to serve…
He is not good to live!”
Mother Teresa from Calcutta.

PRAISE THE LORD!

"BE YE HOLY"

 
 

Be ye holy because I’m holy said the Lord! I Peter 1-16.
He wants us to be holy but does not force us to it because it has
to be done on our own volition.
This is a transformation we received from the Holy Spirit when 
we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.
We should abandon the old man of sin after we are born again.
The old man is because of sin since Paradise, and the new man, 
is when we receive the Paternity of Jesus instead of Adam’s!
This is of course a transformation from sin to sanctification.
From the old man to the new one! Jesus said:
I am a worm; and no man.   Psalms  22.
Why did He say that?
Because He had on his shoulders the weight of the sins of the 
World, not his own sins, but the sins of the whole world!
And when He died all the sins died with Him!
But if we keep embracing the old man of sin and continue sinning
after accepting Christ, what good would be our transformation for?
It is like a worm that dragging on the floor makes his cocoon over 
him, days pass by, and when its time, the cocoon opens up an comes
out flying a butterfly of beautiful colors.
What would you say if instead of watching her fly, she starts dragg-
ing herself on the floor like a worm?
Yes! That she did not appreciated the gift of God!
What good would it be for us, that after receiving the Spirit of Jesus, 
to do this transformation on us, and instead of flying to serve God,
we continue dragging ourselves in sin?
When we become Christians, we abandon the wide road of sin, and
started to walk on the narrow road full of rocks, thorns and thistles?
We cannot walk on the narrow road and on the wide one at our own 
convenience! No! We have to decide once and for all, which road 
to choose and to follow it! If we want the narrow one, we have to get
rid of the wide one!
Oh! We are sometimes on the wide road because we are in the f lesh1
Baloney! We sin, because we like to sin! And refuse to obey God 
to love people! If we obey God, we cannot sin!
Man is a slave of the one who serves! Think about it!
“Our old man was crucified along with Christ, so the body of sin be 
destroyed! And we cannot sin anymore”   Roman’s 6-6.

PRAISE THE LORD!

"ONLY ONE"

 

God created man at his own image and likeness, one body, one 
soul, and one spirit. Unfortunately, we think that our body is all 
we have to take care of and nothing else, but we are not one only, 
but three that desperately are in need of God.
God is not just the Father, but also, God the Son, and God the 
Holy Spirit, but they are still just One God!
Some people believe in God the Father, but not in God the Son,
and much less in God the Holy Spirit.
A lot of people believe in God the Father only, others in God 
the Son but most people forget that the Holy Spirit is also God!
If you  believe in God the Father only, you are  going to have 
Just one third of God, the same happens when we believe in the 
Son only, and obviously, if you don’t believe in Jesus, neither 
you will believe in his Spirit.  Listen to this:  
God the Father is with us!  God the Son is for us!  
God the Spirit is in us!
God the Father is everybody’s God!  He makes shine his bright 
sun to give life heat and light for all his creation!
Jesus is for all also, but for all that believes in Him and accepts 
Him as their Savior. And his Holy Spirit is in us, since the ins-
tant we accept Him as our Lord!
Which of the Three persons of God do you love?  Listen:
He who has the Son has the Father also!
He who has not the Son has not the Father and the Holy Spirit!
We cannot have only one third of God! 
Whether we have Him all, or none! Do you understand?
Jesus said:
“Thou shall love the Lord thy God with al thy heart, and with
all your soul, and with all thy mind”  Mathew  22- 37.
Of course He is referring to all our being, body, soul and spirit.
Somebody said: How many gods are there? I don’t know! 
You tell me! And he answered to him: One! Only One! 
He is everywhere; and there is no room for another!
“If any man has not the Spirit of Christ, is not of his.” 
Roman’s 8-37.

PRAISE THE LORD!
