The Kingdom of God is near! Repent of your sins and believe the Good News!"

Image
When Jesus came preaching the Kingdom of God, he said it was “at hand” and commanded us to repent and believe the good news about the Kingdom (Mark 1:14-15 Mark 1:14-1514 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent you, and believe the gospel. ; Matthew 4:17 Matthew 4:17From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. The Greek word translated “at hand”: It means to draw near to something. It does not imply that something has actually come, rather that it is close. The Bible in Basic English, the New International Version and Today’s English Version recognize this distinction, translating the phrase in Mark 1:15 Mark 1:15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent you, and believe the gospel. as “the kingdom of God is near.” Other translations, including the New ...

Waiting for the Lord

Image
Do not make yourself angry because of what evil people do. Do not feel that you want to be like them. They are always doing wrong things. They are like grass that will soon become dry. They will die just as green plants do. Trust in the LORD and do good things. Live in the land and you will be safe. You will enjoy what it gives to you. Be happy with the LORD. He will give to you what you most want. Promise that you will give yourself to the LORD. Trust in him and he will do all for you You are righteous. That will shine out like the dawn. You are a fair person. That will be like the sun at midday. Remain still in front of the LORD. Wait for him (to do something). Do not make yourself angry because other people are doing well, or because they are making bad plans. Stop being angry (with God) and do not get heated inside. Do not make yourself angry, it only brings trouble. Evil people will become cut off, but people that wait for the LORD will inherit the land. Soon the go...

The powerful word of God

Image
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shine in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. That was the true Light, which lighten every man that comes into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. And the Word was made f...

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good his mercy endures forever

Let those who fear the LORD say, his mercy endures forever. In danger I called on the LORD; the LORD answered me and set me free. The LORD is with me; I am not afraid; what can mortals do against me? The LORD is with me as my helper; I shall look in triumph on my foes. Better to take refuge in the LORD than to put one’s trust in mortals. Better to take refuge in the LORD than to put one’s trust in man. I was hard pressed and falling, but the LORD came to my help. The LORD, my strength and might, has become my savior. The joyful shout of deliverance is heard in the tents of the righteous: “The Lord’s right hand works valiantly; the Lord’s right hand is raised; the Lord’s right hand works valiantly.” I shall not die but live and declare the deeds of the LORD. The LORD chastised me harshly, but did not hand me over to death. Open the gates of righteousness; I will enter and thank the LORD This is the Lord’s gate, through it the righteous enter I thank you for you answered me; you ha...
