Good Morning,

As disciples of Christ we are not to be conformed to this world, but is transformed by the renewing of the mind to prove what is the good and acceptable, and perfect will of God. Romans 12.2.

And does His will from the heart. for we are His servants. Ephesians 6.6.  The disciple does not live any longer in the flesh for the lust of men, but for the will of God. 1 Peter 4.2.  Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires and lives and walks in the Spirit. Galatians 5.24-25.

Good Morning,

According to the scripture, the hour is coming and now is when, TRUE worshippers will worship the Father in Spirit and in TRUTH.  For God is seeking such to worship Him, for God is Spirit. John 4.23-24.  So there must be also false or UNTRUE worship that is unacceptable to the Father.  In Matthew 15.8-9, Jesus said people draw near to Him with their mouth, but their heart is far from Him and they worship Him with vain worship, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.  And in Acts 17.23, Paul told the Athenians, they ignorantly worship God, ignorant of the truth about worship.  So be careful how you worship our God and be absolutely sure you are worshipping God in an acceptable manner to Him according to His word and not the word of man, otherwise your worship is vain and God will reject it.  Read, study and hear the "God breathed" word of God, because as Matthew 7.21 points out; "Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord shall enter the Kingdom of heaven; but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.  On that great day of judgement by the Lord there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, because of how we worship God here on earth. Matthew 8.12.

Good Morning,

Sometimes Christians, like everyone, worry about things. but we have a loving God who says: Casting all your cares upon Him for He cares for you. 1 Peter 5.7. And let not your heart br troubled; You believe. in God, believe also in Me. John 14.1. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4.7.  And let the peace of God rule in your hearts to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful Colossians 3.15.  So we should take no thought for our life, what we shall eat or drink; nor yet for your body, what you shall put on.  Is not life more than meat, and the body more than raiment?  The fowls of the air sow not neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet the Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much better than they? Matthew 6.26.  Therefore we need not worry about our life, what we will eat or drink, nor about your body, what you will put on.  Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Matthew 6.25.  Disciples of Christ should not worry, for God will find a way for you.

Good Morning,

Walk in the Spirit and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.  For the flesh lusts against the Spirit and the Spirit against the flesh and these are contrary to one another.  So that you do not do the things that you wish.  These are the works of the flesh: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, disenssensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkennsess, revelries.  Those who practice such things WILL NOT inherit the Kingdom of God.  Contrary to this is the fruit of the Spirit: love, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self control.  THOSE WHO ARE CHRIST'S have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.  If we live in the Spirit let us also walk in the Spirit, and not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

From Galatians 5.16-25. Emphasis mine.

Good Morning,

Do you believe in God?  Have you made the great confession that Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God and that He died for our sins?  Do you believe the Bible is the inspired word of God?  If you answered yes to all of the above, do you believe you are saved?

Read and hear the scriptures.  Even the demons believe in God and tremble. (James 2.19).  They even fear God. and many of them confessed Jesus to be the Son of God. (Luke 4. 41).  But they still remained demons, and their belief did not change them.  Many of the rulers believed in God, but were afraid to confess Him because of the pharisees who would put them out of the synagogue.  Proving the loved the praise of men more than the praise of God. (John 12. 42,43).  Rulers also believed in Jesus and that He was the Christ, but would not confess or follow Him. (Matthew 10.32,33).  We can be believers, but still be in a lost condition.  For Jesus said: "Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven." (Continue reading Matthew 7.21,23).  Those people were religious, sincere, believers in God, but were still lost, rejected by Christ, because they did not obey the will of their Heavenly Father.  If there is any hope of entering the Kingdom of heaven, we must believe, obey and do the Father's will.  Read also James 2.24; John 6.29; Colossians 2.12; Ephesians 2.10).  Jesus asks us: "Why do you call Me Lord, Lord, but do not do the things which I say?" (Luke 6.46).  If you love Me keep My commandments. (John 14.15).  There is no other way but His.
