"CIRCLES"

All who have the Spirit of Christ in their hearts…
Are Christians! Listen:
“Now, if any man have not the Spirit of Christ,
he is none of his.” Romans 8-9.
Christ came to this world to give all sinners, the
opportunity of repentance, receive forgiveness of
our sins and life eternal when we believe in Him!
All religions trace a circle around them and say that
within their circle, we can reach heaven. However,
the Bible says that there is only one “Way” to God:
Jesus Christ! John 14-16.
The circle Jesus Christ outlined from heaven, covers
the whole world! Jesus said to his apostles:
“Go ye unto all the world, and preach the gospel to
every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall
be saved; but he that believeth not, shall be damned.”
Mark 16-15.
God wants to give us all, the Way of salvation by
means of his beloved Son, but cannot force us to
believe on Him!
Our faith in God increases when we listen the Good
News of Christ, and when we know Him better, we
begin to believe in Him! Listen:
“Jesus is the Lamb of God which takes away the sin
of the world.” John 1-29.
We all are part of the world! Of course! Including you!
The Spirit of the Lord rejoices when hears you talking
about his Son to others. Don’t hesitate! Do it!
If you have Him in your heart, share Him!
But if you think you don’t have Him…
Open it up and invite Him to enter!
Accepting Christ as your Savior, will put you in a
greater circumference far beyond the earth’s circle,
a place, where eternal life begins.
Far away from sin! Closer, much closer to God!

PRAISE HIM!
HE LOVES YOU!

"LET'S COOK SOMETHING" 2.

The opposite of Temperance is lack of self control!
It is to let us take by an impetuous wave into the Ocean without
having the will to row in our small boat to the place we would
like to go, and because we allowed the alcohol , drugs, to take
control of our lives, we land in hell, instead of Paradise.
And because of sin, we are an insipid pot of meat and water,
without the fruits that could give us the flavor and taste,
to our lives.
But, how could we obtain the fruits of the Spirit?
Good question!
The Bible tells us this:
“For the fruits of the Spirit is in all Goodness, righteousness,
and Truth” Ephesians 5-9.
Tell me:
If somebody comes to you with an empty plate, and asks you
to give him something that you have, what would you give him?
Nobody wants to eat from a pot that is full of hatred, or pride,
or doubt, etc.
What can we do?
Change!
Change your doubts into faith, your hatred in love,
and put them at the feet of Jesus.
Open up your heart!
And begin a new life loving God and people!
Don’t forget!
God loves you! Invite Him to live in you!

I LOVE YOU JESUS!
COME INTO MY HEART!

"LET'S COOK SOMETHING"

Cook?
If I’m in this page is to listen or read something about God, and,
certainly not about cooking!
Calm down my friend, we will talk about God, but first tell me:
How good a food would it taste if for example a chunk of beef
is placed in a pot with water, and boil it without any condiments,
no salt, pepper, onions, or vegetables? Just meat and water!
Oh, it would taste awful, anybody knows that, but you said that
you were going to talk about God and not about food!
Yes! It’s true! Listen:
The fruits of the Spirit are nine: Love, Joy, Peace, Long suffering,
Gentleness, Goodness, Faith, Meekness, and Temperance.
Galatians 5-22.
People are like meat and water, just like the pot we were cooking
without all the necessary ingredients to have a good taste,
and be nutritious.
But, what all these things have to do with the fruits of the Spirit?
Look: A person without them is as cold as ice, insensitive, without
peace, patience, or faith, insecure, unfriendly, without self control,
without love for God or others, he is like a pot of meat cooked
just with water, tasteless, and so sour and bitter, that nobody wants
to get close to him.
Listen: Hate is the opposite of Love, sadness the opposite of Joy.
Faith is the opposite of doubt, which makes us insecure, unable
to reach what we always are following.
The opposite of Peace is an interior war within us, fighting to
stabilize our boat to keep it from sinking.
The opposite of Longsuffering (Patience) is desperation,
It is to try to finish something we have never started.
The opposite of Gentleness and Goodness is evil doing,
is to have the desire to curse, and hurt people.
The opposite of Meekness (Humbleness) is Pride, Haughtiness,
is to think we are far better that any other person.

"THE INVENTORY"

We are not eternal…Sooner or later …
We have to give account to God for everything we do!
We have to make an inventory of all the good and bad things
we have done during our lives, and how much better will be to do
it now than waiting until the end of our lives and confront us with
a huge debt that even if we want it to, we could not pay it off!
We have to ask God for the forgiveness of our sins, and once and
for all begin a new life trying to amortize our debt with God!
But how?
How are we going to pay back for all the damages we have done?
Would somebody could be able to return all that have stolen?
Could somebody bring back to life somebody if they have killed?
How are we going to repair all damages caused by our lies?
How could we return to God after going so far away from him?
Our whole life won’t be enough to liquidate our debt if we don’t
begin to make our installments now!
But, wait a minute, God, is not asking for your money,
He wants your faith in his Son!
Everything could change if we recognize that Jesus Christ on
the cross, paid with his blood for all our debts…
If you believe, it is done!
Make your inventory!
Put it at the feet of Jesus and ask Him to forgive you!
Your debt will be paid in full!
You will be free!
Free to begin loving, not to continue sinning!
If your debt now shows cero, keep it that way!
From now on, good deeds will be your goal!

THANK YOU JESUS!

"RISE UP"

“Pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before fall”
Proverbs 16-18.
We are proud to be called Christians, we feel separated from the
World, we feel sanctified for God and we think that we have to
keep ourselves away as far as we possible can from the ones that
for one or for other reason, they walked away from the church
and returned to sin, we called them: “The fallen ones”
How could they do that? We say, I don’t understand!
They are not like us! They are dammed, they are lost!
Does God forget the fallen ones? Of course not! Listen:
If a man lost one of his sheep, doesn’t he leave the ninety nine
in the sheep pen and goes to find the lost one? Mathew 18-12.
“I will seek that which was lost and bring again that it was
driven away and will bind up that which was broken, and will
strengthen that which was sick” Ezekiel 34-16.
Jesus raises the fallen ones!
Jesus asked a crippled man: Do you want to be whole?
Sir, the man answered, when the water is ready to heal, I can’t
find anybody to put me into the water. And Jesus said to him:
Rise, pick up your mat and walk!
The man was immediately made whole. John 5-2 to 8.
The prodigal son was forgiven after all he did!
God is our Father and the prodigal sons are us!
“Wherefore, lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble
knees, and make straight paths for your feet, lest that what is
lame be turn out of the way, but let it rather be healed.”
Hebrews 12-12.
“More Joy shall be in heaven over one sinner than repented
more than over ninety and nine that need no repentance.
Luke 15- 7.
Rise, and follow Jesus!
Walk in the paths of righteousness!
Walk in the paths of God!

PRAISE THE LORD!

"RIVERS OF LIFE"

Life is like a Majestic river of clean water, to give everyone
that with a dry mouth is looking for a little bit of that precious
liquid, to calm down their thirst, and continue living.
However, when the river is shaken, the mud setting at its bottom
contaminates it so much, that changes from crystalline to opaque,
and so smelly, that nobody can drink it.
Sin is the mud in our hearts, that does not allow us to see its
bottom, and when we get upset, the water mixes with the mud,
and the bad words begin to come afloat, converting us in enemies
of that wonderful being created in the image and likeness of God.
Tired of this awful life, we fall on our knees repenting of our sins
before the Son of the Almighty God, who sent him to the world
to save us. And Christ so happy to see us coming close to Him,
forgives us, cleanses us, and prepare us to make a change,
a wonderful change in our lives, far away from hate, and now
that we are closer to him, He begins teaching us his love.
Without the mud of sin in our lives, Christ illuminates all the
interior of our being, so we could see the very bottom of our
heart, now clean and pure, to use it as a temple for God.
Instead of the mud of sin in our hearts, we begin filling it up
with the Word of God, who blesses us when we give someone
to drink of the water of life, that Christ verted abundantly to
bless anyone that tired, decides to get closer to Christ and be
transformed into a new person to give Him glory.
Thanks be to God, for the tremendous victory against sin con-
quered for us through his Son, who suffered, died, and rose,
to give life to all of us who sincerely believe in Him,
in his Love, in his Mercy, in his Grace.
Blessed be our Lord who paid with his precious blood the
high price for us, so we could live eternally with Him.
Because… He truly loves us!

PRAISE HIM WITH ALL YOUR HEART!

"HIS NAME IS JEALOUS"

God came down to earth!
In the beginning was the Word (Christ) The Word was
With God, the Word was God.
He created everything, there is nothing that exists that He
had not created. Eternal life is in Him, and this life gives
light to all mankind.
And the light shined in darkness; and the darkness cannot
extinguish it. But although He made the world, the world
did not recognize Him when He came.
Even in his own land, and among his people, He was not
accepted. Only a few welcomed Him, but all who received
Him, all who believed in his name, He gave them the right
to become children of God.
All those who believed, are reborn, not a physical rebirth
resulting from human passion, but from the will of God…
And some of us have seen his glory, the glory of the
only Son. John 1-1 to 14. Listen:
“For thou shalt worship no other god: For the Lord, whose
name is Jealous, is a jealous God” Exodus 34-14.
Why is God jealous?
Simple: If He created everything that we can see, and that
we cannot see…
If He existed before anything becomes into existence…
Everything! Absolutely everything belongs to Him!
Even ourselves of course! Then…
Why do we have to worship something or someone
that is not Him?
He is jealous because He loves us, and don’t want us to
deviate away from Him!
If the universe disappears, God will continue existing!
And if we are in Him and He in us… we will continue
existing along with Him forever!

PRAISE HIM HE LOVES YOU!

"COME UNTO ME"

God separated his people from other towns so they don’t worship
other “gods” besides” Him, however, some of them, merry women
of other places and they taught them to worship material gods,
gods of stone, wood metal, etc. disobeying the true God.
Ezra 9.
The world was lost with so much sin, however, in order to save it…
God sent his Son! Listen:
“For God so loved the world that, he gave his only begotten
Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish,
but have everlasting life.” John 3-16.
The only Son of God Jesus Christ, sacrificed himself for us,
offering his body as a living sacrifice for the forgiveness of sin,
but He also asks us to walk away from idol worshiping and get
closer to the living God that lives and rules forever. Hear this:
“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I
will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and
lowly in heart; and ye, shall find rest unto your souls.”
Mathew 11- 28 and 29.
Our faith in the Son of the Almighty God, is our salvation!
He is he forgiveness of our sins, through his grace. Look:
“Because the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is
eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6-23.
Jesus died for us, so we could keep living!
And if we believe He resurrected among the death…
We will live forever!.
Come to me, says Jesus! If you are tired…
What are you waiting for? Get closer to Him!
Don’t you make Him wait any longer!

PRAISE HIM HE LOVES YOU!

"HE IS RISEN"

He is risen!
Praise the Lord!
He rose to conquer life eternal
for all those who believe in Him!

He is risen,
Praise the Lord!

Now He is seating down at
the right hand of his Father
to give us his love eternally!

He is risen!
Praise Him
with all your heart!


He is risen; He is my Lord,
my God, my Savior!
He is risen to save my soul!

Thank You Jesus for your life,
your death and resurrection.

You’re the King!
We, your servants!
Praise the Lord!

TELL HIM YOU LOVE HIM!
HE DID EVERYTHING FOR YOU!

"WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DAY"

What am I going to do with this lovely day God grant me?
Will I use it to criticize, hate, or make people mad?
Of course not!
This is a day of light, peace and love, we should not convert
it into darkness doing what God hates, upsetting the One
who without thinking about it twice, gives us everything.
Instead, let’s show Him our love!
“This is the day which the Lord hath made;
we will rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118-24.
Forgive and forget! Be happy!
Let’s rejoice, sing hymns praising the Lord!
Let’s glorify the Almighty!
Glory to the Lord of the Universe!
Glorify his lovely Name!
Tell Him you love Him!
“And thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, and with all thy soul,
and with all thy mind, and with all
thy strength…
And thou shalt love thy neighbor as thy self.”
There is no other Commandment greater than these.
Mark 12-30.
Thank you Lord for this magnificent day!
Thank you Jesus!

PRAISE THE LORD!

"MISSION ACCOMPLISHED?"

We all have a mission to fulfill during our lives in this world.
Do you know what’s yours?
Yes?, No?, Maybe?
I think they’re only two: Love, and Hate!
Love builds up, Hate, destroys!
We will hate and destroy if our mission is not to love!
We cannot achieve our mission just by letting ourselves to be
guided by the river flow to an unknown destiny, and then be
pushed out of the boat without knowing about our mission.
Is that bad?
Of course is bad! With our arms crossed, we cannot do a thing,
we cannot accomplished anything, we won’t be able to conquer
something we never knew we have to.
Hate is cheap! Listen:
“It has always been easy to hate and destroy. To build and to
cherish is much more difficult.” Queen Elizabeth II.
True! Very true, but, it is completely up to us to love or hate,
to build or destroy as a part of our mission, is a strong issue!
Wake up! Can’t you see where the river is taking you?
Get off the boat! Go back! God is alive and waiting for you!
Let me tell you something: We have to have God inside of us!
It is not enough to have an image on the wall, or a crucifix
hanging on your neck to have Him, God wants to live in your
heart, so you could feel Him alive!
When you believe He died for us, He forgives your sins, and
when you believe He rose again among the death to give us
eternal life… This life becomes yours, and as a proof of it,
He will dwell in your heart from then on, to forever more.
Put your hands together! Bend your knees and say: Come!
Come Lord Jesus, to save me! The Spirit of God and yours
will join to work on a great mission:
Talk to others of the glory of his name.
Help us Lord to accomplish this noble Mission.

"THAT POOR HEART"

We always need to clean our rooms, because the dust in the air
little by little settles down everywhere and it doesn’t look good.
Our heart also gets dirty, and we must clean it, because with so
much dirt, we don’t feel good. An in order to do a good job,
we have to take everything out, and after its clean, we can
put everything back in place.
Tell me: What is your heart filled with?
That poor heart of ours, it’s so small, but in the inside, has lots
of room to store things, but now, it is completely full!
Well, I guess it’s time to clean it!
We begin throwing out the things we don’t use, we keep the
ones we will use, but our sins, we could not take them out!
Our sins grew roots that are imbedded in the floor of our heart,
and, no matter how hard we try… We can’t move them away!
Now, we find ourselves alone with our sins, and remembering
them and repenting at the same time, we begin to cry!
My God, my God we say, Can you help me?
And when Jesus enters the room, enlightens all the place, and
with a smile on his face, He removes our sins, and dumps them
into the bottom of the sea, to make us free!
Now that your heart is clean…Keep it clean!
If your sins have left you… Don’t call them again!
Listen: Only Jesus can remove our sins, no saints or virgins can,
because with his death on the cross, cover our sins with his
blood, and with his resurrection He gives us life eternal.
Wipe off your tears, smile, you don’t need to cry no more,
your heart is clean, and inside has lots of room.
Now tell me: What are you going to fill it with?
Invite Jesus to live in it!
Love will shine inside of you!
You will sincerely love people!
And loving people, you cannot sin!

CHRIST IS ALIVE!
PRAISE HIM, HE LOVES YOU!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

"THE PURPOSE OF MAN"

The purpose of man in the world, is to love God, obey God,
serve God, and then, go to rest in peace waiting for the
return of Jesus Christ to rise the death for an eternal life
with Him in heaven!
However, instead of loving God, we love the material things
of this world, obey the pleasures of the flesh, and serve the
enemy of God: SIN.
Then, what our hope will be?
Our Hope is Jesus Christ, because we are sinners, and cannot
reach with our own efforts the “pass” to enter God’s glory.
God saw this impossibility, and sent his only Son to the
world, to save it, because for ourselves, there is nothing
we can do to earn our own salvation, because salvation
is not earned, it is accepted from Jesus the Christ who
conquered it by dying on the cross for us.
None of us is good enough to enter heaven!
The only way to enter, would be to have somebody
to pay in full for all our sins, but nobody can do it!
Wait a minute! There is One!
Jesus Christ whom with his precious blood poured on
the cross, blotted out the sins of all who believe in Him!
This is Grace!
In Jesus we have the opportunity we’re looking for!
Our sins can only be in two places: In us, or in Christ!
Where are yours?
Repentance makes us look toward the cross of Christ
to ask Him with all our heart, for his forgiveness!
And if we, bending our knees acknowledge Him
as our Lord and Savior…We will be forgiven!
Born again in a new creature to serve God!

“There is no other name under heaven given among
men, whereby we must be saved”. Acts 4-12.
What is your purpose in this life?
PRAISE THE LORD!

"PETER DO YOU LOVE ME?"

True Christendom is Love and Mercy in action!
It is to proclaim the good News of Christ.
So whoever believe… could obtain their liberty,
abandon master sin, and embrace the new One: Love,
so we can replace our hate for love.
Jesus cut the chains that unite us to sin,
and invite us in the noble task to tell others that:
God’s Salvation is at our reach.
But how are they going to desire to be saved if they
don’t even know what Salvation is?
How are they going to know that Christ has the power
to snatch us from the paws of evil to start a new life?
But if we are satisfied by been saved just ourselves,
who are going to tell others about Christ?
Listen: Jesus said:
Peter do you love me?
Yes Sir, Peter answered you know I love you!
Then, feed my lambs.
Simon son of Jonas, do you love me?
Yes Lord, Peter repeated, you know I love you!
Feed my sheep. John 21-15.
We are Peter if sometime we have denied Christ!
Peter was very sad when listened, the cock’s crow
when he denied the Lord.
However after he repented was forgiven, and as a
present, received a new day to rejoice in it.
It is nice to wake up when we have Christ in our
hearts and the desire to share him with others.
Christ loves you! He is coming back for his people,
and to judge those who rejected Him as their Savior!
When you hear his voice…don’t harden your heart…
Open it up and invite Him to enter.

PRAISE THE LORD!

"A GOLDEN HEART"

Would you like to have a golden heart?
Yes! Of course!
Can you imagine ? Gold is very expensive!
Well, don’t be so happy, Listen:
When we talk about somebody that has a golden heart,
we usually mean that is a noble person, charitable, full of piety
and love… But now days, I think that kind of persons are rare.
Listen to this:
“And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new
spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their
flesh, and I will give them a heart of flesh:
That they may walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances
and do them. and they will be my people, and I will be their God.”
Ezekiel 11-19
Did you hear?
A new heart and a new spirit so we can obey Him!
If our heart of stone is hard enough, how about a metal one?
Senseless, cruel, far away from God, and the gold one, besides
all that, egoist, arrogant, and prideful, thinking only in money,
without caring at all about anybody else. The new heart, will
feel the pain of people, and will have compassion for them,
the new spirit is God’s Spirit full of love to share with everybody.
How I would like they would make caskets with holes at the
sides to take the hands out of them!
To take the hands out? Why?
So people can be perfectly sure that when we leave this world,
we leave it empty handed! We take nothing along with us!
That’s why we shouldn’t worry to build a fortune, but be worry
to get from God, the new heart and the new Spirit to truly love!
Remember:
The love of money is the root of evil. I Timothy 6-10.
Love God, not money!

LOVE HIM WITH ALL YOUR HEART!

José Salazar

"HAPPINESS"

Happiness, what is it?
Is the vehicle to transport us to “heaven”, and from there,
we could see all the sadness that overflows the world, whom
trying to find it the fastest and easiest way, falls into the most
common vices, putting their souls in the peril of being lost!
True happiness is in God!
The “deceiver” Offers us an incredible trip to the heights into
a fragile bubble which he makes to explode when we are at the
highest point making us fall without stops at a great speed to
the lowest point on earth: Hell!
In contrast, God offers us an incredible trip to heaven, when
with faith, we read his amazing book called The Bible
A Book to learn how Great is our Lord!
Tremendous, isn’t it?
Why? Because God is real!
In his Book we will find: True happiness, and of course, Love,
when we learn how Great He really is!.
We need to know that heaven is not false, but a real place!
And is within our reach when we follow Christ, He will lead
us to an everlasting life when we believe.
Jesus is the Son of God, sent to rescue us from eternal doom
to eternal happiness in paradise with Him!
Wonderful!
We only have two options:
To continue living in a false “heaven” full of problems, or
in the real one made by Love, Truth and Life.
Not like the unreal one we made by denying God’s existence,
hating and hurting people.
Why do people continue doing it?
Because we have never learned to fall on our knees to praise
the Unique Being that can save us!
God?
Yes! We will know what happiness is all about, when we
open our arms and place our hearts on his Son!

PRAISE HIM!
HE LOVES YOU!

"FREQUENCIES"

Have you tried to listen F.M. with an A. M. radio?
No! You can’t do that! Why?
Because they are two complete different radio frequencies,
one is high frequency and the other is low, it could only be
done, if the radio is equipped with a switch to change it.
Who cares, I prefer watching television!
All right, but listen:
Have you ever seen two people having a conversation?
Have you seen one person talking and the other yawning?
This is because they are not in the same frequency!
Why God talks and we don’t listen? Why we talk and God
don’t want to listen to us?
Of course! Because we are not in the same frequency!
God is Saint, and we are sinners!
What a different frequencies!
He is completely separated from sin, we are completely
separated from Him! However:
He loves us so much, that He wants us to be, the way He is!
“Be saints because I am Saint” Says the Lord. I Peter 1-16.
And how could we be able to achieve this? Listen:
“For there is one God, and one Mediator between God and men,
the man Christ Jesus; who gave himself a ransom for all…”
I Timothy 2-5.
“I came not to call the righteous but sinners to repentance”
Mark 2-17.
Jesus is in the same frequency of us sinners!
Ready to forgive us when we ask Him! When we recognize
Him as our Savior, He forgives our sins, and by means of
our faith, declares us Innocents of having offended God with
all our sins, furthermore, He puts his Holy Spirit in us to keep
us away from sin, and close to God in a perfect communion .
“And if any man has not the Spirit of Christ, is not his.”
Romans 8-9.
But if you want to be His: Open up your heart and let Him in!
“We are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus
Christ once for all” Hebrews 10-10.

PRAISE HIM, HE LOVES YOU!

"THE POTTER"

Before anything existed, was God, He always existed and will
exist forever.
He created man at his own image and likeness: Genesis 1-26.
God always demanded obedience from us, and in turn, He takes
care of us when we are faithful, He is aware of all our needs.
Sadly to say, we only get close to God when we want Him
to solve our problems. He is our Creator, and He has the right
to do with us what He pleases.
Like the potter!
If a potter is making a vessel, a vase or a pot, but when he is
turning the table, sees that the clay is too soft or too hard, and the
walls of the vessel does not want to stay in place, do not “obey”,
do not conform with the purpose for it was created, he destroys it!
Makes new clay to make another piece without having anyone
to tell him that what He is doing is wrong!
God is our Potter!
We were created with a purpose in life and if by our disobedience
we defeat our purpose, He could destroy us like a potter’s vessel,
and make another one that can conform to his will!
Oh Lord : What is the purpose of my life living in this world?
How could I know if what I’m doing is right?
Well, He left us instructions in his book called the BIBLE.
Yes! The Book you always refuse to read!
God is as close to us as we let Him to be!
But, for our advantage, God made us better than regular clay,
we are not death but alive, and have in us the power to speak,
to implore forgiveness to our Great Potter to spare our life,
because He knows how fragile we are, just like a potter’s vessel!
But if instead of asking for forgiveness, we proudly say we are
not guilty and deserve to live….Be careful!
The closer to sin, the farther away from God we are!
Repentance makes us turn from sin to God!
Repentance is the desire to stop sinning!
And Christ is always ready to forgive us!
When we receive Him as our Lord!
PRAISE HIM!

"SHORT CIRCUIT"

Light is to vanish darkness, without light everything is darkness!
If we illuminate our heart, we will be able to see, all its filth!
“Let it be light, God said and there was light!”
Genesis 1– 3and 4.
We use electricity to produce artificial light, electricity has two
poles, completely opposed to each other, one is called positive,
and the other, negative. If we connect these poles to a bulb, we
will produce light, but if we allow these poles to touch, they will
crash and produce what is called: short circuit! So we have to
maintain these poles separated, and insulated one to the other
to prevent short circuits, and keep ourselves illuminated.
God is completely separated from the negative side, because He
hates anything that is bad, or evil and He wants us to be like Him
He said: Be saints because I am Saint! I Peter 1-16.
Many people live one moment with light, and other in complete
darkness because they love to touch both poles causing many
short circuits daily, turning off their light, finding themselves
in a profound darkness.
Jesus said: “I am the light of the world; he who follows me,
will not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” John 8-12.
If we remain with Him, we will never be in darkness!
The only way to avoid short circuits, is separating these two
poles as far as we possible can, to stop touching them.
We have to separate ourselves from the negative, and embrace
the positive, the positive is love, and the negative is sin.
We cannot love and sin at the same time!
We cannot be sweet water and salty water at the same time!
We should not bless and damn at the same time!
Then… What can we do?
We have to learn to separate good and evil embrace good
and reject evil, to be close to God!
If we love God we cannot hate! If we hate we cannot love!
Love God and people!
We do not need to hate!

PRAISE HIM, HE LOVES YOU!

"BEHAVE"

With our behavior, at the end of our lives, we will have enough
building materials to construct a house in heaven, or a palace in hell.
The greater the amount of sins we have, the bigger the load we carry
on our shoulders, and the heavier the load, the greater our fatigue,
bigger our affliction, more intense our pain. Listen:
“As I live, said the Lord, I have no pleasure, in the death of the
wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live.”
Ezequiel 33-11.
Talking with a friend of mine, he told me that I need to congregate
and have a pastor to guide me, and I answered him: I have one
already, his name is Jesus Christ! Our Pastor!
To congregate is good, but we need to share with others what
we learn in the church and visit the people who are far from God!
Because of so much feeding ourselves in the congregation, we are
getting fat with so much spiritual food, food we could take to the
people who are hungry and needy of God.
There are so many lost sheep in the world that need help, that we
don’t need a lot of biblical knowledge and great eloquence to tell
the world who Christ is, and what He can do for us after removing
from our shoulders that heavy laden of sins that hurt us so much.
We could tell them that Jesus can change us in another person that
their goals are not to serve sin, but God and people. Listen:
We don’t need to build anything in heaven! Because Christ has
done it all for us! The only thing we need is to have Him
in our heart accepting Him as our Lord and Savior!
“In my Father’s house, are many mansions” John 14-2.
“Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden and I
will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me,
for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest into
your souls.
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light” Mathew 11- 28.

PRAISE HIM, HE LOVES YOU!
