These are Truths that I received from the Bible through a godly teacher of the Word.

• Our sin affects others to sin.
  — Philippians 2:4-6 says, “Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. 5Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus.”
• We all need to have a humble attitude of repentance for our sins to be able to put our faith in what Jesus did for us on the cross by shedding His blood and dying for our sins and their penalties and to receive eternal life in Heaven with Jesus. Jesus’ resurrection conquered death so we can go to Heaven for all of eternity.
  — Luke 5:32 says, “I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
  — Jesus
  — 2 Corinthians 7:10 says, “Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death.”
  — 2 Chronicles 7:14 says, “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
• We need to come to Jesus like a child.
  — Mark 10:15 says, “Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child, shall not enter it.”
• Jesus reigns over creation and remains calm and at peace. He is Lord over ALL. If you remember His identity…Who He is…He will give you rest.
• Our sense of calm is as close as our closeness to Jesus in His Presence. We need to depend on Him.
• Our faith needs to be strong and fearless. We need to stop and listen to Jesus. We need to bow to His Words.
• The greatest gift you get for following Jesus – is JESUS! We need to love the Savior and know His commands.
• Don’t be a part of the casual Christian crowd. This is so important, but knowing Jesus is more important. It is in quietness that He speaks to you.
• Jesus gives us grace to reach others on His behalf.
• Always forgive!!!
• Our sin that needs forgiving (which encompasses all of our sins) is making ourselves the center of our lives. Self-idolatry is what has taken the peace of Jesus Christ from your heart or what is preventing you from putting your faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
• Loosen your grip and submit your idols to Him. Submit yourself to Him. Give up all idols to Jesus!
• Be more like Jesus. Once you put your faith in Him, His Holy Spirit will help you.
• Our SUCCESS can be an idol and our culture tells us we need it. Our culture uses education and “religion” to change its youth. Our culture lies to us!
• We are NOT our own gods! That is humanism! We compare ourselves to God. Things that belong to God are Holy. We must PRAISE Him. There is only ONE GOD! How are we blaspheming Him?
• We choose to worship gods we can control!
• In Daniel 4:28-37, King Nebuchadnezzar, the King of Babylon, was judged by God because he was worshiping other man-made gods of this world and then he set up an image of gold that everyone had to worship when the King announced to do so. God’s judgment, which humbled him and was difficult to endure, was God’s mercy on him. King Nebuchadnezzar realized his sins and decided to look up to the One True God and worship Him only, as we should. He was brought to his knees as we should be!
• Our Gospel mission is to proclaim that Jesus is Lord and tell others what He did for us on the cross in our place, TO SAVE US from our sins and their penalty of hell for all eternity. That is quite a GIFT from God! Salvation comes after humbly confessing our sins, humbly repenting of our sins and then through our faith in what Jesus did for us on the cross and resurrection. We will receive His forgiveness for our past, present and future sins. After we receive forgiveness doesn’t mean we will never sin again. We need to still confess and repent to remain in close fellowship with God, which is very important.
• DO ALL FOR THE GLORY OF GOD!!!

I hope these Truths will influence your heart, mind and soul and help you realize who YOU ARE compared to the ONE TRUE GOD! ONLY HE IS WORTHY OF OUR PRAISE! ONLY HE IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED!
