Light - Yesterday, Today, & Tomorrow
While Christians, not unlike most persons,
may be as yet imperfectly fully realized,
the principles of Jesus Christ, born of the
Holy Spirit through the Virgin Mary, remain
perfect and inviolable. As individuals err,
man is called to "forgive those who trespass against us" and to
"love one another."24 He cautioned His disciples not to judge others,
but rather to rid oneself of the plank in one's own eyes, and to let GOD
be the judge.25 Christ's call of all persons to The Almighty
God and love for one another reveals His
perfect "way, truth, and life"26 through whom to enter into the Kingdom of
Heaven and God.27Is there life after earthly life, provisions for tomorrow, hope for a better day or world? According to scripture, not one hair on our heads nor phenomenon of creation is left unknown to The Creator. One is not to worry about tomorrow, but rather to repent and to seek first the Kingdom of God and HIS good and godly righteousness, and all one's needs, hopes, and heart's desires shall be met.28 Here is the same LORD of Abraham29, Sarah30, Isaac and Jacob31, and the same LORD of Jesus Christ32, Mary33, and Joseph34 ministering to HIS people -- the same LORD yesterday, today, and tomorrow who is faithful to HIS promises.35 According to scripture, the Law Giver and Prophet Moses36, Priest and King Melchizedek37, and Warrior, Priest, and King David38 were forerunners of the promised Savior, High Priest, Prophet, Messiah, only begotten Son of GOD incarnate from conception39, Jesus Christ, who according to scripture is "the fulness of the Godhead bodily"40 -- "the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person."41 The LORD God loves you.42 God blesses you.43 God shines His holy light upon you and gives you His peace.44 Rejoice and be happy.45 The light of The Most High and everlasting LORD of Lords dwells within you.46 In the Name of the Father, and the Son, and
the Holy Spirit. Amen.
