Ministry of Paradise

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). “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. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” (John 1:1-2, 14). The Apostle Paul explained how “…God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh;...” (Romans 8:2–4). There is probably no greater celebration in our lifetime than to give thanks to God who give is the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ on Calvary (1 Corinthians 15:57-58). “For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. ...

Right now, go to any internet portal, and without any doubt there will be hardly or nothing mentioned about Jesus Christ: Why is this? After all, he gave his life for the sins of the world! Jesus expressed of the world, saying: “If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you” (John 15:18-19). “He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God” (John 8:47). “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins” (John 8:24). Jesus’ disciple reminds us, said: “My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for...

As long as we are in this world on this earth, we will never be free of problems, whether we have one dollar, one million dollars, or one billion dollars; we will have problems! As a matter of fact, we would not be free. The life free of problems is not on this earth. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18). “Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live” (Romans 8:12-13).

Serve only God because he was merciful to human beings to give his only begotten Son Jesus Christ for the sins of the world (John 3:16-18). It is that simple! “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus: who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time” (1 Timothy 2:5–6).

Many people to this day, sadly enough, still do not believe that there was a person on this earth named Jesus, the only begotten Son of God (John 3:16-18). However, for those who do not believe, look back at the faith of one of the transgressors next to Jesus on the day of his crucifixion. He said, “Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom” (Luke 23:42). Jesus said to him, “Verily I say unto thee, today shalt thou be with me in paradise” (Luke 23:43). Just as the promise was made to the transgressor, so too before the end of the Last Day, all those who are called and chosen in the Kingdom of God, the faithful of God’s elect, will be given passage to Paradise to inherit the world without end (Matthew 25:31–34). God sent his only begotten Son to this earth “to make all people see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ to the intent that now unto the principalities an...

We must ALL stop to seriously consider how even after his death, Jesus, the only begotten Son of God did not have a funeral, and had to be secretly buried. As it is written: “And after this Joseph of Arimathæa, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus. And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight. Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury. Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid. There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews’ preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand” (John 19:38-42).

“And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, ‘Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?’ which is, being interpreted, ‘My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?’ And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost. And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom. And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, ‘Truly this man was the Son of God”’ (Mark 15:33-34. 38-39). Jesus was crucified along with two thieves. It was customary after a crucifixion to break the legs; however, “when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs; but, one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water” (John 19:33–34). “And he that saw it bare record and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might bel...

Every day of our lives when we drink a glass of water especially when we are thirty, let us be reminded how much our Lord Jesus sacrificed for us on that day. On the day our Lord Jesus was crucified, it was a very hot day.   As he suffered in the heat assuredly he needed a drink of water; however, “They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink” (Matthew 27:34).

Every human alive today would be wise to come to repentance of sins and accept Jesus Christ as Lord, Savior and King. The prophet Isaiah foretold of the day of Jesus’ crucifixion when he said: “I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting” (Isaiah 50:6). On the day that our Lord, Savior and King was crucified, he endured unimaginable things at the hands of the roman soldiers who mocked, scourge and spit on him (Mark 10:24). “And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Prætorium; and they call together the whole band. And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head, And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews! And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him. And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him” (M...

We must take a moment of silence in prayer this Good Friday to acknowledge the magnitude of God’s love for humankind (John 1:1-4, 14, 3:16-18). It doesn’t matter who we are in this world, if we want to be freed from this earth on the Last Day to make it to the next world without an end in New Heavens and a New Earth (Isaiah 65:17-18) (John 3:16-18, 14:2–3) (Ephesians 3:9-12) (2 Peter 3:13) (Revelation 21:1-2), the word of God says: “He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed” (John 8:36). “Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter,...

Many people are going about their daily lives, unfortunately, not taking the time to consider the magnitude of what the only begotten Son of God, Jesus Christ did for the human race. Today, we bring into remembrance Good Friday. During today we must take a moment in silence pray to God in truth and spirit to give him thanks for given us his only begotten Son, in order that we may inherit the promise of eternal life (John 12:32). No amount of money on this earth can purchase salvation. “Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot” (1 Peter 18–19).

At the beginning of time, God give light of life to the first man and woman, Adam and Eve. However, Adam and Eve did not believe the word of God: the truth; they believed instead a lie, and as a consequence all humans were condemned to death. God gave life, but then came death. However, God then sent his only begotten Son Jesus, at the right time, in the fullness of time, to bring and to spread the word of life. While he was here on earth, King Jesus told his disciples of this fact when he said, “Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father” (John 10:17–18).

Jesus was very troubled during the final hours of his mission to complete as commanded by his Father (John 3:16-18, 6:38). Jesus said: “Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour” (John 12:27). Jesus knew that the time had come to fulfil his purpose, but as a human being would have, he had difficulties facing this reality. However, he knew that it had to be done, as the entire survival of humankind rested on the successful completion of the mission which his Father sent him to accomplish. In spite of the fact that Jesus knew the time had come, on the night before, he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and was very heavy and sorrowful in his heart (Matthew 26:37). Jesus said to them, “My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me” (Matthew 26:38), and he went to pray three times to his Father. Jesus knew the time had come to fulfil the word of Go...

Two thousand or so years ago, a person name Jesus was commanded by his Father to give his life for the human race (John 3:16-18, 6:38).   This is very, very, very serious because who do we know would willing give their life for anyone? “For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:7-8). God specifically sent his only begotten Son “forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the Devil; and deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage” (Hebrews 2:14–15). “For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive” (1 Corinthians 15:21–22).

Jesus came to this earth thousands of years ago to reveal to the world knowledge of the commandment given to him by his Father, which was hidden from the foundation of the world. God declared to Satan when he lied to Adam and Eve, “It shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel” (Genesis 3:15). During his time here on earth, Jesus described to his disciples how he must go to Jerusalem to suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests, and scribes, to be killed and to be raised on the third day (Matthew 16:21). However, Peter didn’t understand and tried to stop him. “But he turned, and said unto Peter, ‘Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offense unto me: for thou savorest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men’” (Matthew 16:23). Notwithstanding the attempts of Satan, Jesus accomplished what he came here to earth to do, and he declared then, “Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out” (John ...

When we awake to face another day, begin the day with the Lord’s Prayer; and before going to sleep at night, end of the day with the Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:9–13). “Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.   Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.   And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.   And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen” (Matthew 6:9-13).

Absolutely nothing will be remembered of this world (Isaiah 65:17-18). “For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God” (1 Corinthians 3:19). Jesus says: “For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” (Matthew 16:26).   “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away” (Matthew 24:35). “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever” (1 John 2:15–17).

“It’s all about the money”; “Give me my money”; “Do you have money”; “Follow the money”: These are all well known slogans of this world. “But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness” (1 Timothy 6:11). Jesus says: “No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon” (Luke 16:13). “For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright” (Psalm 11:7).   “The LORD liveth, in truth, in judgment, and in righteousness” (Jeremiah 4:2). “In the way of righteousness is life; and in the pathway thereof there is no death” (Proverbs 12:28).

If we know to say: “I am sorry” in a situation when we have hurt someone or done something wrong; then how difficult is it to say to the Creator: God, the Father: “I am sorry for my sins”? “And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Because he hath [APPOINTED A DAY], in the which he will [JUDGE THE WORLD IN RIGHTEOUSNESS BY THAT MAN WHOM HE HATH ORDAINED]; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” (Acts 17:30-31). “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Romans 10:9-10). “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condem...

In our present time, with the constant barrage of media in everyday life, we need to obtain firsthand the knowledge of the word of God so we do not fall prey to fear, fables, and fairy tales distracting us to be totally obedient to the word of God. Today, a few words of comfort to those who are unemployed, in financial distress, lonely, weary, frightened about life circumstances or simply disillusioned about life:   Let us be reminded what Paul, the apostle said: “pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17). Many throughout time have doubted and said, in essence, “This is easier said than done.” However, Jesus emphasized, “And I say unto you, ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened” (Luke 11:9–10). Be strong and pray to God in Jesus’ name. Also, be reminded what Jesus also said: “God is a Spirit: and they ...

Jesus is very clear when he says: “I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen” (Matthew 28:20). Many people are still posting comments holding on to the belief that they will be taken away or “raptured” to escape the great period of tribulation (Matthew 24:21). They point to the passage of Scripture written by the Apostle Paul, saying: “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first, then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord” (1 Thessalonians 4:16–17). However, this passage of scripture outlines the summary of events AFTER THE GREAT TRIBULATION at the End of the World when Jesus returns on the Last Day for the Day of Judgment (Matthew 25:31–34) (Matthew 25:41, 46). Jesus explained, said: “Immediately [AFTER THE TRIBULATION] of those...

There is a tendency by many people with lingering doubts who believe that there is still plenty of time left on this earth. But is there time? Do we really have time? The Devil and his angels know that they have a short time   (Matthew 8:28–29) (Revelation 12:9). Therefore, why do many people believe that there is a lot of time? To wait and see is a dangerous game; anyone doing so is gambling with time. Since no one knows how much time we have left on this earth, we would be best to believe the word of God: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18). Jesus, the only begotten Son of God ...

DO NOT BE DECEIVED; EVERY HUMAN BEING MUST BE JUDGED HERE ON EARTH: Jesus says: “It is written, that man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God” (Luke 4:4). “Verily, verily, I say unto you, [HE THAT HEARETH MY WORD, AND BELIEVETH ON HIM THAT SENT ME, HATH EVERLASTING LIFE], and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, [WHEN THE DEAD SHALL HEAR THE VOICE OF THE SON OF GOD]: and they that hear shall live. For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; And hath given him authority to [EXECUTE JUDGMENT] also, because he is the Son of man. [MARVEL NOT AT THIS: FOR THE HOUR IS COMING], in the which [ALL THAT ARE IN THE GRAVES SHALL HEAR HIS VOICE], And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. I can of mine own self do not...

“[FOR WE CAN DO NOTHING AGAINST THE TRUTH, BUT FOR THE TRUTH]” (2 Corinthians 13:8). “NOW we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God” (2 Thessalonians 2:1-4). “And then shall that Wicked be revealed, [WHOM THE LORD SHALL CONSUME WITH THE SPIRIT OF HIS MOUTH, AND SHALL DESTROY WITH THE BRIGHTNESS OF HIS COMING]: even him, whose coming is after the working of satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, [AND WITH ALL DECEIVABLENESS OF UNR...

The events unfolding in major western and eastern countries are a clear indication of the coiming ‘new world order’ or seventh and last world kingdom. The day is soon coming when the internet as we know it today will be completely changed. At this moment, to access the internet is relative easy; however, in the new internet ecosystem often referred to as the ‘internet of things’, to gain access every person must have a unique identification which is coded directly as part of the persons body. In the Book of Revelation as it is written: “And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name” (Revelation 13:16-17). Should we be alive when this time comes let us be reminded of the words of our Lord, Savior and King Jesus Christ saying: “No servant can serve two masters: for either he w...

Many people in this world today, unfortunately, are afraid or living in fear of the wicked one, the devil, aka Satan, the prince of this world whose name is Lucifer. Untold numbers of people fell for his lies and deceits into believing that the only way to make it in this world is to join a secret society or brotherhood. However, all people have to do is to come to knowledge of the truth: word of God. “Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is an enemy of God” (James 4:4). Jesus says: “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” (Mark 8:36-37). Jesus pointed out that we need not be concerned about what food we eat, clothing we wear, and so on. “But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” (Matthew 6:33). God has give all power to his only begotten Son Jesus Christ, the one and only Savior (John 3:16-18). ...

Being alive on this earth does not mean that we have life. The day that we were born, we were already bonded to die. Since the death of the first man Adam and the first woman Eve, we have all been condemned to death: “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment” (Hebrews 9:27). From the first man and woman, Adam and Eve, we have all been made from the dust of this earth, and then become a living soul (Genesis 2:7). At the end of time, all who obtain the reward of inheritance will be given the hidden treasure of light by Jesus Christ to be transformed into a quickening spirit of the heavenly (1 Corinthians 15:45–46). “The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly” (1 Corinthians 15:47–49).

“No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him” (John 1:18). Jesus, the only begotten Son of God, came here to this earth for a specific purpose, which is the most significant of all time. Therefore, the time of our life should not be lived in vain. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). “For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive” (1 Corinthians 15:21–22). “Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son” (2 John 1:9). “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus: who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time” (1 Timothy 2:5...

“We love him, because he first loved us” (1 John 4:19). “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18).

“NOW we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our [GATHERING] together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand” (2 Thessalonians 2:1-2). “For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to [STAND]?” (Revelation 6:17). “The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call” (Joel 2:31-32). “Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to [STAND] before the Son of man” (Luke 21:36). Jesus says: “Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and...

When the day comes, and it is soon coming, the word of God says: “And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name” (Revelation 13:16-17). The key word here is “…causeth…”: The devil, aka Satan can only “cause” those who he has power over to receive the mark of the beast. For those that believe in and follows Jesus Christ, the devil has no power over because “greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4). “Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?” (2 Corinthians 13:5). “That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love” (Ephesians 3:17). “For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation ...

The mention or sight of these words stirs up fear and fearfulness into untold numbers of people. However, the Holy Scriptures says: “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love” (1 John 4:18). “For God is love” (1 John 4:8). “Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you?” (2 Corinthians 13:5). “For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus” (Galatians 4:26). Jesus Christ says: “Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life” (Revelation 2:10). “I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen” (Matthew 28:20).

Let us keep looking up to the stars at night holding fast to the promise of our Lord, Savior and King Jesus Christ, saying: “He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels” (Revelation 3:5). “And I will give him the morning star. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches” (Revelation 2:28-29). When time ends on the Last Day, the Day of Judgment, “Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven” (Psalm 85:11).

Let us standfast, steadfast and strengthening each other enduring everyday to the end; and to spread the gospel of peace to turn people to righteousness to follow Jesus Christ. “In the way of righteousness is life; and in the pathway thereof there is no death” (Proverbs 12:28). “They that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars forever and ever” (Daniel 12:3).

Once we have come to knowledge of the truth through the gospel, we faithfully follow Jesus Christ everyday, and pray always to endure to the end: “For surely there is an end” (Proverbs 23:18). Knowing that this heaven and earth will pass away, every human being would be wise to take heed of God’s warning to come to repentance of sins (Mark 1:15) (John 3:16-18) to inherit eternal life in Paradise because the alternative is Perdition: the second death in the lake of fire. In the Book of Revelation John foresaw the Day of Judgment, saying: “And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and ...

Absolutely nothing in this world on this earth will be remembered except the word of God: “For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind” (Isaiah 65:17). Jesus says: “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away” (Matthew 24:35). “Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
