1 Consciousness
Once we are born with consciousness we do not know where we are and even what we are. Once we open our eyes then we can see our surroundings and get to know what we are seeing, then we can learn about our surroundings and learn from our parents what we are and where we are within this world that we live in.
2 Choice/free will to choose
God gave us free will to choose what we do from day to day though out our lives. We choose everything we do daily. We choose when we eat, what we eat, where we go, where we will work, what car to buy and drive, even we choose what wife we marry to start our own family.
All our lives we choose what we do, where we go. When we get old make sure the choice we make will be the ones that we want to make so when we do get old we can look back and say, I would have done it all over again. If not it is time to make changes.
3 Things to understand
Remember we must separate earthly things from spiritual things
No matter what you ask from GOD. GOD will never take our freewill to choose away from us.
Some things you ask for will take away our free will to choose, GOD will never take away our free will to choose.
It all comes down to throughout our lives we make choices every day and within those choices determines our future of where we live, where we work, what we drive, how many children we have, our spouse, and all of the other aspects of our lives.
GOD gave us choice within our freewill to choose our Destiney
Within creation GOD put DNA within the animals and through evolution created human man and woman
God sees us as disobedient children. To Sin is a Choice.
Do we teach what Jesus did or what Jesus taught?
When Our Safe Zone is broken then we can learn new things
The realities of our truth within each of us is who we are and who we become.
Within our Earthly Life what we believe is our truth
Within our Spiritual Life what we believe is what we worship
When you Change your mind, you change your life and future.
Whenever you use the term GOD, it means you are talking to a personality.
So this means that for God to take care of us we have to live within him this is why we cannot find him for we live within him. And now once saved God will live within us.
We are spiritual beings having an earthly experience
You can be evil and not sin and you can sin and not be evil, then you can be evil, and sin and greed is the beginnings of evil and sin the cause of being evil.
How can You judge a person's life you have never lived?
Sin the action of our disobedience
Because of time itself there is a beginning and an end
There is a difference between having a family or having just breading stock.
Salvation of GOD throw Jesus because of what he taught not what he did.
Children: When A woman is with child, and she decides she just does not want the child she seeks out a Doc to abort the child. but have you realized that the child she is caring could be the next president, a great musician, or even the one that could stop wars and even rumor of wars? Have you thought of the potential of that child that she is caring? Have the child and let someone else raise the child for someday that child might be great.
What the bible says about the beginning of life before the child is born. Genesis 2:7 “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.”
4 Gods Plan
32:5.7 (365.3) There is in the mind of God a plan which embraces every creature of all his vast domains, and this plan is an eternal purpose of boundless opportunity, unlimited progress, and endless life. And the infinite treasures of such a matchless career are yours for the striving!
32:5.8 (365.4) The goal of eternity is ahead! The adventure of divinity attainment lies before you! The race for perfection is on! whosoever will may enter, and certain victory will crown the efforts of every human being who will run the race of faith and trust, depending every step of the way on the leading of the indwelling Adjuster and on the guidance of that good spirit of the Universe Son, which so freely has been poured out upon all flesh.
5 God is our father
6 Our Future
195:10.3 (2084.3) Ever bear in mind — God and men need each other. They are mutually necessary to the full and final attainment of eternal personality experience in the divine destiny of universe finality.
195:10.4 (2084.4) “The kingdom of God is within you” was probably the greatest pronouncement Jesus ever made, next to the declaration that his Father is a living and loving spirit.
7 Our Immortality
131:4.7 (1449.2) “God is our Father, the earth our mother, and the universe our birthplace. Without God the soul is a prisoner; to know God releases the soul. By meditation on God, by union with him, there comes deliverance from the illusions of evil and ultimate salvation from all material fetters. When man shall roll up space as a piece of leather, then will come the end of evil because man has found God. O God, save us from the threefold ruin of hell — lust, wrath, and avarice! O soul, gird yourself for the spirit struggle of immortality! When the end of mortal life comes, hesitate not to forsake this body for a more fit and beautiful form and to awake in the realms of the Supreme and Immortal, where there is no fear, sorrow, hunger, thirst, or death. To know God is to cut the cords of death. The God-knowing soul rises in the universe like the cream appears on top of the milk. We worship God, the all-worker, the Great Soul, who is ever seated in the heart of his creatures. And they who know that God is enthroned in the human heart are destined to become like him — immortal. Evil must be left behind in this world, but virtue follows the soul to heaven.
8 GOD’s Love
117:6.10 (1289.3) All true love is from God, and man receives the divine affection as he himself bestows this love upon his fellows. Love is dynamic. It can never be captured; it is alive, free, thrilling, and always moving. Man can never take the love of the Father and imprison it within his heart. The Father’s love can become real to mortal man only by passing through that man’s personality as he in turn bestows this love upon his fellows. The great circuit of love is from the Father, through sons to brothers, and hence to the Supreme.
The love of the Father appears in the mortal personality by the ministry of the indwelling Adjuster. Such a God-knowing son reveals this love to his universe brethren, and this fraternal affection is the essence of the love of the Supreme.
9 The Free Gift
167:5.1 (1838.2) On the way to Judea Jesus was followed by a company of almost fifty of his friends and enemies. At their noon lunchtime, on Wednesday, he talked to his apostles and this group of followers on the “Terms of Salvation,” and at the end of this lesson told the parable of the Pharisee and the publican (a tax collector). Said Jesus: “You see, then, that the Father gives salvation to the children of men, and this salvation is a free gift to all who have the faith to receive sonship in the divine family. There is nothing man can do to earn this salvation. Works of self-righteousness cannot buy the favor of God, and much praying in public will not atone for lack of living faith in the heart. Men you may deceive by your outward service, but God looks into your souls. What I am telling you is well illustrated by two men who went into the temple to pray, the one a Pharisee and the other a publican. The Pharisee stood and prayed to himself: ‘O God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of men, extortioners, unlearned, unjust, adulterers, or even like this publican. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I get.’ But the publican, standing afar off, would not so much as lift his eyes to heaven but smote his breast, saying, ‘God be merciful to me a sinner.’ I tell you that the publican went home with God’s approval rather than the Pharisee, for every one who exalts himself shall be humbled, but he who humbles himself shall be exalted.”
I do not want to share my free gift with you
Tell me to ask me one time what was my religion and I told them that I do not want to share my religion with no one.
Then they go why.
I said I don't want you to believe what I believe then you'll be in heaven with me I don't want you to go to heaven with me.
Then they'll go why can't I go to heaven with you. I don't want you to go to heaven with me I don't want you to.
Well then why won't you show me or even tell me how to get there because I don't want you to go with me.
I don't want you to go and see all the beautiful things and learn about God and heaven and everything else that is there.
I don't want to tell you about the free gift of God that will get you there.
There you go there's a free gift on how to get there. What is the free gift and how do I get it.
The free gift is receiving the spirit of Truth that will live inside of you for eternity. The spirit of truth will guide you throughout eternity.
It is your choice to accept the spirit of Truth or not. For if you don't it's still okay you will have that choice again when you get to heaven. God gave us consciousness then he give us awareness of consciousness to find out where we are. Then God gave us choice to choose what we do throughout each one of our lives. As time goes by the choices we make does not determine our future only our everyday choices will determine our future.
I still don't want you to go to heaven with me because if you do you'll take my place.
It's like if I go I'll take your place.
If you go you'll take my place.
Now if you want to go it's okay you can take my place but when you get there to make sure you save a place for me okay.
That is if you get there before I do.
All you have to do is accept the free gift and all you have to do is say this.
Prayer for the free gift
SAY THIS OUT LOUD.
God I seek you for the free gift of the spirit of truth that will live within me. I open the door of my heart lord and let you in. Fill me now with the spirit of truth right now. I now will follow you and now I can take my place in heaven when the time comes. In GOD we pray Amen.
