ABOUT GOD, JESUS AND THE HOLY SPIRIT

(Directors of BMSJ)

"In the beginning God created the heaven and

the earth...And God said, Let us make man in

our image, after our likeness... So God created

man in his own image, in the image of God

created he him; male and female created he

them. And God blessed them, and God said

unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and

replenish the earth..."

Genesis 1:1, 26-28, KJV.

"God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must

worship him in spirit and in truth."

John 4:24, KJV.

"God is not a man, that He should lie,

Nor a son of man, that He should repent.

Has He said, and will He not do?

Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?

Behold, I have received a command to bless;

He has blessed, and I cannot reverse it."

Numbers 23:19-20,NKJV

WHAT A WORLD WE WOULD HAVE

IF PEOPLE LOVE, OBEY AND TRUST GOD...

Please hear what God says:

Exodus 20:1-17

King James Version (KJV)

20 And God spake all these words, saying,

²I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

³Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

⁴Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

⁵Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

⁶And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

⁷Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

⁸Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.

⁹Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

¹⁰But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

¹¹For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

¹²Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

¹³Thou shalt not kill.

¹⁴Thou shalt not commit adultery.

¹⁵Thou shalt not steal.

¹⁶Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.

¹⁷Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.

Deuteronomy 28:13-14 New King James Version (NKJV)

13 And the Lord will make you the head and not the tail;

you shall be above only, and not be beneath,

if you [a]heed the commandments of the Lord your God,

which I command you today, and are careful to observe them.

14 So you shall not turn aside from any of the words which I command you this day, to the right or the left, to go after other gods to serve them.

11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,

says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil,

to give you a future and a hope.

12 Then you call upon Me and go and pray to Me,

and I will listen to you.

13 And you will seek Me and find Me,

when you search for Me with all your heart.

Jeremiah 29:11-13, New King James Version (NKJV)

ALWAYS FIND TIME TO PRAY,

READ YOUR BIBLE AND WORSHIP THE LORD.

REMEMBER TO MEET WITH OTHER CHRISTIANS

AND BE A WITNESS FOR JESUS.

Love and God's blessings to you!

approved (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed,

correctly analyzing and accurately dividing

[rightly handling and skillfully teaching]

the Word of Truth."

"Study to shew thyself approved unto

God, a workman that needeth not to

Philippians 4:8-13New King James Version (NKJV)

Meditate on These Things

8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.9 The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.

Philippian Generosity

10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at last your care for me has flourished again; though you surely did care, but you lacked opportunity. 11 Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content: 12 I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. 13 I can do all things through Christ[a] who strengthens me.

2 Timothy 2:22-26, Amplified Bible (AMP)

22 Run away from youthful lusts—pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those

[believers] who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. 23 But have nothing to do with

foolish and ignorant speculations [useless disputes over unedifying, stupid controversies],

since you know that they produce strife and give birth to quarrels. 24 The servant of the

Lord must not participate in quarrels, but must be kind to everyone [even-tempered,

preserving peace, and he must be], skilled in teaching, patient and tolerant when

wronged. 25 He must correct those who are in opposition with courtesy and gentleness

in the hope that God may grant that they will repent and be led to the knowledge of the

truth [accurately understanding and welcoming it], 26 and that they may come to their

senses and escape from the trap of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his

will.

Hebrews 12:1-2 King James Version (KJV)

1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

"And we know

that all things work together for good

to them that love God,

to them who are the called according to his purpose."

Romans 8:28, KJV

Ephesians 6:11-13, KJV

11 Put on the whole armour of God,

that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood,

but against principalities, against powers,

against the rulers of the darkness of this world,

against spiritual wickedness in high places.

13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God,

that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day,

and having done all, to stand.

King James Version: Proverbs Chapter 1

1 The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;

2 To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;

3 To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;

4 To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.

5 A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:

6 To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.

7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

8 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

9 For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.

10 My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.

"But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a consecrated nation, a[special] people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies [the wonderful deeds and virtues and perfections] of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light."

4 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

Before you were born I sanctified[a] you;
I [b]ordained you a prophet to the nations.”

6 Then said I:

“Ah, Lord God!
Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth.”

7 But the Lord said to me:

“Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’
For you shall go to all to whom I send you,
And whatever I command you, you shall speak.
8 Do not be afraid of their faces,
For I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord.

9 Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me:

“Behold, I have put My words in your mouth.”

"Let no one look down on [you because of] your youth,

but be an example and set a pattern for the believers in speech,

in conduct, in love, in faith, and in [moral] purity."

Bible Verses about

Youth

Ecclesiastes 12:1

Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years draw near of which you will say, “I have no pleasure in them”;

Ecclesiastes 12

New King James Version (NKJV)

12 Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth,
Before the difficult days come,
And the years draw near when you say,
“I have no pleasure in them”:
2 While the sun and the light,
The moon and the stars,
Are not darkened,
And the clouds do not return after the rain;
3 In the day when the keepers of the house tremble,
And the strong men bow down;
When the grinders cease because they are few,
And those that look through the windows grow dim;
4 When the doors are shut in the streets,
And the sound of grinding is low;
When one rises up at the sound of a bird,
And all the daughters of music are brought low.
5 Also they are afraid of height,
And of terrors in the way;
When the almond tree blossoms,
The grasshopper is a burden,
And desire fails.
For man goes to his eternal home,
And the mourners go about the streets.

6 Remember your Creator before the silver cord is loosed,[a]
Or the golden bowl is broken,
Or the pitcher shattered at the fountain,
Or the wheel broken at the well.
7 Then the dust will return to the earth as it was,
And the spirit will return to God who gave it.

8 “Vanity of vanities,” says the Preacher,
“All is vanity.”
