WE HAVE HEARD THE SAYING {MARY MOTHER OF GOD}

 IN HEAVEN WHERE FATHER GOD LIVES , BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THIS OUR WORLD FATHER GOD HAS HIS ONE AND ONLY BEGOTTEN SON WHOSE NAME WAS THE {WORD} HE IS A SPIRIT PERSON AND EQUAL WITH HIS FATHER, BUT GOD THE FATHER IS NOT GOD THE SON , AND GOD THE SON IS NOT GOD THE FATHER OR GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT.  HE IS NOT A MAGICIAN THAT WOULD IN AN INSTANCE JUST  APPEAR DIFFERENT , THEY ARE 3 DIFFERENT SPIRIT PERSON AND THEY MAKE UP THE OFFICE OF THE GOD-HEAD GOD THE FATHER IS IN CHARGE AND TELL HIS SON WHAT TO DO AND ALSO TELLS THE HOLY SPIRIT WHAT TO DO  

SO THE FATHER AND SON TELLS THE HOLY SPIRIT WHAT TO DO '

SO WHEN THEY SAY MOTHER OF GOD, THEY ARE TALKING OF GOD THE SON.THE ONLY BEGOTTEN OF GOD THE FATHER ,WHO SPIRIT WAS PUT INTO THE WOUMB OF MARY HIS MOTHER ,AND WAS BORN OF HUMAN, AND WAS BORN OF A JEWISH WOMAN

YOU MAY ASK YOURSELVES WHERE DID JESUS COMES FROM.

SOME PEOPLE SAY THAT GOD DOES NOT HAVE A SON

SOME PROPLE SAY THAT JESUS IS NOT GOD

AFTER THOUSANDS OF YEARS BECAUSE THE PEOPLE OF THE EARTH ENJOY WORSHIPING IDOLS AND IDOLS ARE EACH ALTARS IS DEMONS OF DARKNESS AND OF SATAN THE DEVIL

THE LORD YAHWEH OUR GOD WOULD SEND PROPHETS TO WARN THE PEOPLE OF THE EARTH TO REPENT  OF THEIR SINS AND TURN TO THE TRUE GOD ,WHO IS INTO RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HOLINESS ,BECAUSE SIN HAS A PRICE TO PAY, GOD SAYS THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH, THAT MEANS THAT MEANS IF A PERSON DOES NOT ASK GOD TO FORGIVE THEIR SINS, AND IF THEY DIE IN THEIR SINS, THEN THAT PERSON WOULD  END UP IN HELL,

SOME PEOPLE SAYS THAT GOD DOES NOT HAVE A MOTHER,

BUT THE PERSON    IS NOT  TALKING ABOUT GOD THE FATHER, THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF THE MOST HIGH GOD , BECAUSE THE SON IS GOD THE SON, AND WE ALSO HAVE GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT ,

ALTHOUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT MENTION  LAST, THE BIBLE SAYS THAT WE ARE NOT TO GRIEVE THE HOLY SPIRIT

WHEN SOMEONE SAYS , MARY   MOTHER  OF GOD ,THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT JESUS THE CHRIST, THE MESSIAH, THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD, BECAUSE JESUS IS GOD THE SON.

NOW WHEN WE KNOW WHO  JESUS IS, AND WHERE HE CAME FROM, AND THAT HE WAS FROM THE BEGINING BEFORE THE WORLD WAS CREATED, AND HOW HE CAME TO BE ALSO A CREATOR  OF ALL THINGS.

AND WHY JESUS SAID TO THE PEOPLE, THAT BEFORE ABRAHAM  WAS ,{I WAS.} WHICH MEANS BEFORE ABRAHAM WAS BORN   HE EXISTED  .

John
Chapter 1

1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

2The same was in the beginning with God.

3All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

4In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

5And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

6There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

7The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.

8He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

9That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

10He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

11He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

12But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

13Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

14And 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.

15John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.

16And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.

17For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

18No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.

19And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?

20And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.

21And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No.

22Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?

23He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.

24And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.

25And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet?

26John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;

27He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.

28These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.

29The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

30This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.

31And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.

32And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.

33And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.

34And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.

35Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples;

36And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!

37And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.

38Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?

39He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.

40One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

41He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.

42And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.

43The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me.

44Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

45Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

46And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.

47Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

48Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.

49Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.

50Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these.

51And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

=====================================================================================

JESUS THE CHRIST IS THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF THE MOST HIGH GOD .

GOD THE SON, SPIRIT WAS PUT INTO THE WOUMB OF MARY THE MOTHER OF JESUS YESHUA, AND THAT SPIRIT CAME FROM HEAVEN.

AND WHEN THE BIBLE SAID THAT GOD SPOKE TO MOSES AT THE BURNING BUSH, AND SAID TELL MOSES THAT ,I AM SENT YOU TO TELL YOU TO LET MY PEOPLE GO FREE.

THIS WAS GOD THE SON ,WHO IS THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF FATHER GOD .

THIS IS WHY WHEN JESUS WAS ON EARTH HE WAS ABLE TO SAY, I AM THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE, NO ONE CAN GET TO FATHER GOD EXCEPT THROUGH ME, JESUS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN GIVE ETERNAL LIFE.

ALSO THE HOLY SPIRIT IS SPECIAL, HE IS THE SPIRIT ,AND HIS JOB IS TO CONVICT A PERSON OF THEIR SINS .

FATHER GOD IS HOLY

AND JESUS CHRIST IS HOLY 

AND THE HOLY SPIRIT IS HOLY.

AND JESUS CHRIST SAID TO US, BE YE HOLY AS MY FATHER IN HEAVEN IS HOLY.

SOMETIMES PEOPLE SAY PEOPLE OF THE BOOK,IT MEANS THE HOLY SCRIPTURES OF THE OLD TESTEMENT  AND THE NEW TESTAMENT ABOUT JESUS CHRIST THE MESSIAH, ANOINTED ONE , WHO WAS LEAD BY THE HOLY SPIRIT INTO THE WILDERNESS AFTER HE WAS BAPTIZED IN WATER BY JOHN THE BAPTIST WHO WAS HIS COUSIN.SO THAT HE COULD BE TEMPTED BY SATAN THE DEVIL.

SO THE HOLY BIBLE IS THE BOOK.

SOME PEOPLE ARE SO STUPID THINKING THAT THEY ARE EQUAL TO THE MOST HIGH GOD OF HEAVEN.AND THINKING THAT THEY HAVE THE DNA OF THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD WHO CAME TO EARTH AND BECAME JESUS THE CHRIST. THE ONLY PERSON TO BE EQUAL TO THE MOST HIGH GOD IS JESUS {YESHUA}{YESUS} CHRIST OF NAZARETH., OF WHO HE IS . WE ALL KNOW THAT THERE IS NO LETTER {J} IN THE HEBREW LANGUAGE ALPHBETH , SO THEY USE THE LETTER {Y} AND SO WE SAY JEHOVAH WHILE SOME SAY {YEHOVAH} WE HAVE YAHWEH THE MOST HIGH GOD .THERE WAS A TIME YEARS AGO , WHEN PEOPLE HAD RESPECT FOR THE LORD OUR GOD. .

 THE TRUE GOD OF HEAVEN WHERE FATHER GOD LIVES ,HE DID NOT COME OUT OF DARKNESS

DARKNESS WAS ONLY CREATED FOR THE PEOPLE OF THE EARTH ,WHERE TIME IS INTO PLACE.

SO THAT AT NIGHTS, PEOPLE COULD GO TO BED AND REST AND SLEEP.

AND AS THIS WORLD SPIN IN SPACE, THE EARTH SPIN AROUND THE SUN.

SO IN SOME COUNTRIES WHILE IT IS FOR INSTANCE EXAMPLE IN THE UK WHEN IT IS EVENING  IN THE UK IT IS MORNING IN AUSTRALIA THE FOLLOWING DAY. AND . JUST LIKE HOW WE SEE THE SUN AND THE MOON INTO SPACE, AND ALL THE PLANETS  ALL INTO  SPACE ,AND HELD UP BY THE POWER OF ALMIGHTY GOD,

OUR EARTH IS INTO SPACE  AS THE WORLD IS ROUND  .

AND WHEN THE PEOPLE UP INTO SPACE OR ON THE MOON LOOK DOWN , THEY SEE THIS ROUND PLANET EARTH IN SPACE AND EVEN SPACE UNDER THE EARTH.

WHEN WE LOOK UP INTO THE SKY  WE SEE THE SUN OR MOON ALL ROUND IN SHAPE  APART FROM THE FULL MOON OR NEW MOON WHEN ONLY APART OF THE MOON SHOW ITS SHAPE . 

THE TRUE GOSPEL {GOOD NEWS} OF JESUS THE CHRIST THE MESSIAH IS NOT THE GOSPEL OF PROSPERITY AND MONEY CHANGERS IN THE HOUSE OF GOD.

BECAUSE THEY DO NOT PREACH THE TRUE GOSPEL OF HOW FATHER GOD HATES SIN AND WANTS THE PEOPLE OF THE EARTH TO TURN AWAY FROM THEIR SINS  AND START TO WORSHIP THE TRUE GOD OF HEAVEN.

WE ARE ALL SINNERS BECAUSE OF THE SIN OF ADAM THE FIRST MAN  TO SIN  AGAINST GOD ,  A  CURSE CAME UPON THE EARTH ,AND WE ALL KNOW THAT THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH , THE SOUL THAT SINETH IT SHALL DIE  ,WHICH MEANS GOD WILL DISTROY IN HELL FIRE . EVERY BODY HAS A SOUL , THE SOUL IS THE INNER PART OF A PERSON,  WE ALL HAVE A PHYSICAL BODY, AND A SPIRITUAL BODY WITH A SPIRIT  BODY, WE HAVE BODY, SOUL AND SPIRIT. THE SOUL CANNOT DIE, EVEN THOUGH IT SAYS THE SOUL THAT SINNETH IT SHALL DIE.  IT LIVES FOREVER IN  THE LIGHT WITH GOD, OR GOD PUNISH THAT SOUL IF THEY DIE IN THEIR SINS.  BUT THE WAY OUT IS TO REALIZE THAT YOU ARE A SINNER AND NEED JESUS CHRIST TO BE YOUR LORD AND SAVIOUR. 

AND BECAUSE JESUS DIED AND SHED HIS PRECIOUS BLOOD  FOR REMISSION OF SIN.AND A PERSION IS REDEEM  AND NOT CURSED. IT MEANS WE ARE NOT OUR OWN , BECAUSE JESUS BOUGHT US FOR A PRICE.

JESUS ALSO  SAID THAT NO ONE CAN COME TO GOD THE FATHER, EXCEPT THROUGH HIM.HE SAID THAT THERE IS NO OTHER WAY UNDER HEAVEN  BECAUSE HE IS THE ONLY WAY AND THE TRUTH AND ETERNAL LIFE.

PEOPLE SAY THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO GOD THE FATHER, BUT THIS IS NOT TRUE, ONLY THROUGH JESUS CHRIST THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD. JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH  THIS IS WHY THE DEVIL HATES JESUS AND ANY ONE WHO BELONG TO HIM.

THE JEWS DID NOT REALIZED THAT JESUS CHRIST WAS THE MESSIAH AND ANOINTED ONE. SOME PEOPLE SAY THAT JESUS CHRIST IS ONLY A PROPHET, THIS IS NOT TRUE. 

THEY     SAY THAT BECAUSE THEY DO NOT KNOW WHERE JESUS CAME FROM.OR WHO JESUS IS.JESUS CHRIST WAS LIVING IN HEAVEN BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THIS WORLD OUR WORLD.WAS CREATED.

FATHER GOD DOES NOT LIVE IN HEAVEN ALL BY HIMSELF,

THE BIBLE SAYS THAT THERE ARE 3 THAT BEAR WITNESS IN HEAVEN , THE FATHER AND THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT, YES GOD HAS ONLY ONE BEGOTTEN SON.

THE ANGELS ARE SONS OF FATHER GOD , BUT HE ONLY HAS ONE BEGOTTEN SON  WHO IS EQUAL IN POWER TO HIM. WE ALSO HAS THE HOLY SPIRIT ,WE HAVE GOD THE FATHER AND GOD THE SON AND GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT . GOD IS A PERSON OF ORDER AND HE IS A SPIRIT PERSON , SO FATHER GOD IS THE HEAD IN CHARGE AND HE TELL HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN WHAT TO DO, AND HE ALSO TELLS THE HOLY SPIRIT WHAT TO DO.

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE COMFORTER WHICH BRINGS COMFORT TO THE PEOPLE OF JESUS CHRIST,EVEN WHEN THEY ARE PERSCUTED.THERE WAS A TIME IN HISTORY WHEN THE  CRUSADERS WHO SAY THAT THEY WERE CHRISTIANS  AND OF CHRIST WENT TO COUNTRIES AND TRY TO FORCE THEM TO CONVERT TO CHRISTIANITY

BUT THE REAL JESUS CHRIST DOES NOT FORCE ANY ONE TO SERVE HIM . JESUS TOLD HIS FOLLOWERS TO GO YE INTO ALL THE WORLD AND PREACH THE GOOD NEWS OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND.TELLING PEOPLE TO REPENT OF THEIR SINS AND TURN TO THE LIVING GOD. AND BE BORN AGAIN JESUS SAID, BORN OF THE WATER THE SPIRIT AND THE BLOOD.  JESUS CHRIST IS A JEWISH MAN, AND WHEN HE COMES BACK TO EARTH TO JUDGE THE WORLD HE WILL BE KING JESUS REIGNS ON THE THRONE OF KING DAVID. SO A  JEW WILL RULE THE WORLD

{ELOHIM} IS GOD THE FATHER AND GOD THE SON AND GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT.THEY CREATED ALL THINGS ,FATHER GOD TELLS JESUS WHAT TO DO AND HE DOES IT .THE 3 OF THEM THEY ARE SPIRIT PERSON ,THE HOLY  SPIRIT IS NOT A  BIRD OR WIND EVEN THOUGH IT CAN REVEAL ITSELF THAT WAY. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE SPIRIT THAT CONVICTS  A PERSON OF THEIR SINS,AND THAT PERSON CONFESS WITH THEIR MOUTH WEATHER QUIETLY OR LOUDLY, LORD JESUS  I BELIEVE IN MY HEART THAT YOU ARE THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD. AND I BELIEVE THAT YOU WERE CRUCIFIED  AND YOU DIED AND PUT INTO THE SULPHPURE {GRAVE} BUT ON THE THIRD DAY, GOD PUT BACK YOUR SPIRIT INTO YOUR PHYSICAL BODY AND YOU CAME BACK TO LIFE, BECAUSE YOUR PRECIOUS BLOOD PAID THE PRICE FOR MY SINS, AND CLEANSE ME. JESUS IS DIVINE AND HOLY, HE HAD NEVER SIN, HE WAS NOT MARRIED TO ANY ONE AND HE DID NOT HAVE ANY CHILDREN.

JESUS DID NOT DIRTY HIMSELF  WITH ANY SIN, HE WAS PURE AND LIVE A HOLY LIFE.

SO A PERSON PRAY TO GOD ANY WHERE THEY ARE, YOU DO NOT NEED A PRIEST OF MINISTER JUST YOU AND GOD  ASK THE LORD TO FORGIVE YOUR SINS , BECAUSE I REPENT OF MY SINS. AND AM SORRY THAT I SIN AGAINST YOU. COME INTO MY HEART NOW LORD JESUS  AND BE THE LORD OF MY LIFE. I BELIEVE YOU ARE THE SON OF GOD AND THAT YOU ROSE FROM THE GRAVE ,  A PERSON CAN DO IT IN PUBLIC AT A CHURCH OR ANY WHERE AND GET WATER BAPTIZED,IT IS AMAZING THAT THINGS ARE EASIER THESE  DAYS BECAUSE IF SOME ONE HAVE HELP  A PERSON SITTING IN A BATH TUB OF SOMEWHERE  WHERE THE WATER IS SAFE AND NOT A DANGER. CAN GET BAPTIZED  WITH CLOTHES ON. 

THERE HAS TO BE RIGHTEOUSNESS IN THE CHURCH AND WITH THE FOLLOWERS OF JESUS CHRIST 

IN THE OLD TESTAMENT OF THE SCRIPTURES IN THE HOLY BIBLE . THERE WAS A MAN NAME ELI WHO WAS A PRIEST IN THE HOUSE OF GOD, HE HAD 2 SONS. APART  FROM OFFERING THE BEST ANIMAL  ON THE ALTAR TO GOD , THEY KEPT THE BEST FOR THEMSELVES AND OFFER TO GOD THAT WHICH WAS NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

AND ANOTHER THING THAT THEY DID, THEY WERE SLEEPING AND HAVING SEXUAL AFFAIRS WITH THE WOMEN IN THE CONGRELATION IN THE CHURCH SINNING OF ADULTERY AND FORFICATION, ADULTARY IS WHEN ONE OF BOTH PEOPLE IS MARRIED.

AND IF A PERSON IS NOT MARRIED AND IS SINGLE AND DO THE SIN OF FORNICATION. IN THE EYES OF GOD IT IS A SIN..

BUT MOST OF ALL ,HOW CAN A MINISTER OR PREACHER OF THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN OR OF GOD BE SLEEPING AND HAVING   THIS TYPE OF LIVING.

JESUS CHRIST SAYS TO US . BE YE HOLY AS MY FATHER IN HEAVEN IS HOLY.

2 Thessalonians 1

1 PAUL, SILVANUS (Silas), and Timothy, to the church (assembly) of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One):

2 Grace (unmerited favor) be to you and [heart] peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).

3 We ought and indeed are obligated [as those in debt] to give thanks always to God for you, brethren, as is fitting, because your faith is growing exceedingly and the love of every one of you each toward the others is increasing and  abounds.

4 And this is a cause of our mentioning you with pride among the churches (assemblies) of God for your steadfastness (your unflinching endurance and patience) and your firm faith in the midst of all the persecutions and crushing distresses and afflictions under which you are holding up.

5 This is positive proof of the just and right judgment of God to the end that you may be deemed deserving of His kingdom [a plain token of His fair verdict which designs that you should be made and counted worthy of the kingdom of God], for the sake of which you are also suffering.

6 [It is a fair decision] since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with distress and affliction those who distress and afflict you, 

7 And to [recompense] you who are so distressed and afflicted [by granting you] relief and rest along with us [your fellow sufferers] when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels in a flame of fire,

8 To deal out retribution (chastisement and vengeance) upon those who do not know or perceive or become acquainted with God, and [upon those] who ignore and refuse to obey the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9 Such people will pay the penalty and suffer the punishment of everlasting ruin (destruction and perdition) and eternal exclusion and banishment from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,

10 When He comes to be glorified in His saints [on that day He will be made more glorious in His consecrated people], and [He will] be marveled at and admired [in His glory reflected] in all who have believed [who have adhered to, trusted in, and relied on Him], because our witnessing among you was confidently accepted and believed [and confirmed in your lives].

11 With this in view we constantly pray for you, that our God may deem and count you worthy of [your] calling and [His] every gracious purpose of goodness, and with power may complete in [your] every particular work of faith (faith which is that leaning of the whole human personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness).

12 Thus may the name of our Lord Jesus Christ be glorified and become more glorious through and in you, and may you [also be glorified] in Him according to the grace (favour and blessing) of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
