Quoting: Anonymous Coward 51466544 He said "our father...." allelujah.. And through him we learn divine mercy unto brothers and sisters. We also see and learn that maybe our neighbors could have something to teach us as we have something to teach them.. |

If you trusted in him and just gave yourself over to his will. You know Jesus. A lot of people have a personal relationship with the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. They know him from personal experience. He is their Lord and Savior. Their Love. They are not following blindly. They know. Some have the beginning of this relationship through study and desire and that is great. We are all learning. Some of you may want to hold your judgement, as you will need Jesus some day. Just a matter of time friends so be careful that you do not offend so as not to have him answer your call when there is no one else that can or will answer. I love Jesus because he first loved me with more love than I could ever imagine. There are so many things I love about Jesus. He has given to me a type of security and peace such as I have never known. He is an anchor. A Rock that does not move. I will hold tight and have the privilege of his GRACE. Praise Jesus! God Bless you ALL. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 53008738 United States 01/30/2014 09:37 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Because He is the genuine God. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 53619263 There are many religions being followed on this planet, generated by the devil and his minions, but what other name has there been where the followers were physically touched by God, the blind see, the lame walk, and the dead are raised. The Creator Himself, humbled Himself and put on a tent of human flesh and walked with His people and served them. Even as a lowly carpenter, the fierce demons in the demoniac threw themselves at his feet and said they knew who He was. Why don't we know who He is? To the unwise who think Enki is something special, from what I can gather he is either Lucifer or a lessor commander who serves Lucifer, but when Lucifer and the Archangel Michael contested over the dead body of Moses, a simple "THE LORD rebukes you" was sufficient to send the mighty Lucifer down the road. Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ, Yashua HaMashiach is LORD, to the glory of God. I never focused on the Enki/Enlil debate and the name "Yashua HaMashiach" is new to me, but everything else you write here has the force of His love in it. The RCC knew and has known for a long time that this world is fallen. It is why the RCC never expected human perfection but kept His Word alive and did as much as it could to prevent heresy (the reason for the Inquisition, etc. Saving the soul is more important than saving the body.) Nothing humans have done has improved life on this planet. It only creates more problems for everyone (and every life form) but the targeted "improved" group. OK, the work week is shorter here, but not over there, and the air and water are fouled, etc. It is only the force of His love that can save us. The RCC (Roman Catholic Church) has been criticized for becoming a worldly power, amassing treasure and so forth, but it has "held the space" for Jesus. If you watch the film, "Brother Sun, Sister Moon," you will see all the human vices and the Pope laughing at and with them all, but as soon as Francis of Assisi shows up the Pope recognizes what is in this human, "Light of Christ, Light of Christ," and assists him in his charism to set up the Franciscan Order. This is why we Roman Catholics venerate the saints. They are God's reminders to us of the force of His love. Keep your testimony coming, people. It is only His love that can save us. |

I once was lost but now am found, Was blind, but now I see. T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear. And Grace, my fears relieved. How precious did that Grace appear The hour I first believed. Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come; 'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far and Grace will lead me home. The Lord has promised good to me. His word my hope secures. He will my shield and portion be, As long as life endures. Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail, And mortal life shall cease, I shall possess within the veil, A life of joy and peace. When we've been there ten thousand years Bright shining as the sun. We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we've first begun. Chorus: Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now am found, Was blind, but now I see. |
Rising Son User ID: 50840634 United States 01/30/2014 09:54 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I love Jesus because He sees the good in everyone, even a prostitute that was about to be stoned to death - and He takes that good and uses it to help others. He stands up for those who cannot do so on their own, and He does it with a humble grace that is unassuming yet welcoming :-) "Be still, and know that I am God." Psalm 46:10 Truth needs no validation because it is self-evident and undeniable. Therefore, anything that requires validation to be realized or justified as truth must contain at least some degree of falsehood. Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak. [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 53620645 United States 01/30/2014 10:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | About 30 years ago I was in Japan. I was 22 years old. I felt very separated from my family and friends. I was feeling very lonely in those days especially because I knew it would be at least 9 more months before I could return home to the USA. Feeling overwhelmed by my experience I fell to the floor and cried out, "Oh, Lord, I promise I'll be good, please take away this loneliness." As I cried with my eyes shut and my face buried in my arm I could see light. I saw myself through the eyes of Jesus and felt the emotions he felt as he watched this young man cry out in prayer. The incredible compassion Jesus felt for me compelled him to descend upon me. I was actually watching myself - from above - through Jesus' eyes. Quoting: Once4All My vision was amazing to me. I got up onto my knees as Jesus [His Holy Spirit] descended upon me. I could feel this awesome life form, this very real life presence penetrate my rib cage and enter into me. I could feel the Holy Spirit taking away my terrible loneliness and replacing it with Joy. A Real JOY that had escaped my for so long. Through the presence of God infilling me I understood that Jesus loved me, my sins were forgiven, and I was filled with the Presence that brings eternal life. This out-of-body experience changed my life forever! I understand that some of you do not understand yet that Jesus is Lord but millions of us do know him as a true friend. We have experience his love and are able to share it with whoever will listen. I hope this testimony of Jesus is a blessing to you and I also hope and pray you enjoy your day! :cross55: |
