  • “Rest causes anxiety to hush down and faith in God, Yahweh to start by dong His statutes.” - G.S

    1 Samuel 26:23-25 KJV [23] The Lord render to every man his righteousness and his faithfulness: for the Lord delivered thee into my hand to day, but I would not stretch forth mine hand against the Lord's anointed. [24] And, behold, as thy life was much set by this day in mine eyes, so let my life be much set by in the eyes of the Lord, and let him deliver me out of all tribulation. [25] Then Saul said to David, Blessed be thou, my son David: thou shalt both do great things, and also shalt still prevail. So David went on his way, and Saul returned to his place. “Even if the enemy looks strong and the opposition looks insurmountable it is just a 'look' and the proper faith stands in the rest of the Lord.” - G.S 2 Samuel 20:16-26 KJV [16] Then cried a wise woman out of the city, Hear, hear; say, I pray you, unto Joab, Come near hither, that I may speak with thee. [17] And when he was come near unto her, the woman said, Art thou Joab? And he answered, I am he. Then she said unto him, Hear the words of thine handmaid. And he answered, I do hear. [18] Then she spake, saying, They were wont to speak in old time, saying, They shall surely ask counsel at Abel: and so they ended the matter. [19] I am one of them that are peaceable and faithful in Israel: thou seekest to destroy a city and a mother in Israel: why wilt thou swallow up the inheritance of the Lord ? [20] And Joab answered and said, Far be it, far be it from me, that I should swallow up or destroy. [21] The matter is not so: but a man of mount Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bichri by name, hath lifted up his hand against the king, even against David: deliver him only, and I will depart from the city. And the woman said unto Joab, Behold, his head shall be thrown to thee over the wall. [22] Then the woman went unto all the people in her wisdom. And they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri, and cast it out to Joab. And he blew a trumpet, and they retired from the city, every man to his tent. And Joab returned to Jerusalem unto the king. [23] Now Joab was over all the host of Israel: and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and over the Pelethites: [24] And Adoram was over the tribute: and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder: [25] And Sheva was scribe: and Zadok and Abiathar were the priests: [26] And Ira also the Jairite was a chief ruler about David.

  • “The rest doesn’t mean a collapse in effort, but a rejuvenation in the authentic work

    and the worthiness of Christ that we inherit from Him.” - G.S Galatians 6:9-10 (YLT) 9 and in the doing good we may not be faint-hearted, for at the proper time we shall reap -- not desponding; 10 therefore, then, as we have opportunity, may we work the good to all, and especially unto those of the household of the faith.

  • “Rejuvenation is a pause in between the beats of life!” - G.S

    Troubled have been nations, Moved have been kingdoms, He hath given forth with His voice, earth melteth. Jehovah of Hosts [is] with us, A tower for us [is] the God of Jacob. Selah. Come ye, see the works of Jehovah, Who hath done astonishing things in the earth, Causing wars to cease, Unto the end of the earth, the bow he shivereth, And the spear He hath cut asunder, Chariots he doth burn with fire. Desist, and know that I [am] God, I am exalted among nations, I am exalted in the earth. Jehovah of hosts [is] with us, A tower for us [is] the God of Jacob! Selah.

  • “Victory is achieved with steadfastness in Christ!” - G.S

    21 And the heads of the fathers of the Levites draw nigh unto Eleazar the priest, and unto Joshua son of Nun, and unto the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the sons of Israel, 2 and they speak unto them in Shiloh, in the land of Canaan, saying, `Jehovah commanded by the hand of Moses to give to us cities to dwell in, and their suburbs for our cattle.' 3 And the sons of Israel give to the Levites, out of their inheritance, at the command of Jehovah, these cities and their suburbs: 4 And the lot goeth out for the families of the Kohathite, and there are for the sons of Aaron the priest (of the Levites), out of the tribe of Judah, and out of the tribe of Simeon, and out of the tribe of Benjamin, by lot thirteen cities, 5 and for the sons of Kohath who are left, out of the families of the tribe of Ephraim, and out of the tribe of Dan, and out of the half of the tribe of Manasseh, by lot ten cities: 6 And for the sons of Gershon [are], out of the families of the tribe of Issachar, and out of the tribe of Asher, and out of the tribe of Naphtali, and out of the half tribe of Manasseh in Bashan, by lot, thirteen cities. 7 For the sons of Merari, for their families, [are], out of the tribe of Reuben, and out of the tribe of Gad, and out of the tribe of Zebulun, twelve cities. 8 And the sons of Israel give to the Levites these cities and their suburbs, as Jehovah commanded by the hand of Moses, by lot. 9 And they give out of the tribe of the sons of Judah, and out of the tribe of the sons of Simeon, these cities which are called by name; 10 and they are for the sons of Aaron, of the families of the Kohathite, of the sons of Levi, for theirs hath been the first lot; 11 and they give to them the city of Arba father of Anak (it [is] Hebron), in the hill-country of Judah, and its suburbs round about it; 12 and the field of the city and its villages they have given to Caleb son of Jephunneh for his possession. 13 And to the sons of Aaron the priest they have given the city of refuge [for] the man-slayer, Hebron and its suburbs, and Libnah and its suburbs, 14 and Jattir and its suburbs, and Eshtemoa and its suburbs, 15 and Holon and its suburbs, and Debir and its suburbs, 16 and Ain and its suburbs, and Juttah and its suburbs, Beth-Shemesh and its suburbs; nine cities out of these two tribes. 17 And out of the tribe of Benjamin, Gibeon and its suburbs, Geba and its suburbs, 18 Anathoth and its suburbs, and Almon and its suburbs -- four cities; 19 all the cities of the sons of Aaron the priests, [are] thirteen cities and their suburbs. 20 And for the families of the sons of Kohath, the Levites, who are left of the sons of Kohath, even the cities of their lot are of the tribe of Ephraim; 21 and they give to them the city of refuge [for] the man-slayer, Shechem and its suburbs, in the hill-country of Ephraim, and Gezer and its suburbs, 22 and Kibzaim and its suburbs, and Beth-Horon and its suburbs -- four cities. 23 And out of the tribe of Dan, Eltekeh and its suburbs, Gibbethon and its suburbs, 24 Aijalon and its suburbs, Gath-Rimmon and its suburbs -- four cities. 25 And out of the half of the tribe of Manasseh, Taanach and its suburbs, and Gath-Rimmon and its suburbs -- two cities;

so to all these cities. 43 And Jehovah giveth to Israel the whole of the land which He hath sworn to give to their fathers, and they possess it, and dwell in it; 44 and Jehovah giveth rest to them round about, according to all that which He hath sworn to their fathers, and there hath not stood a man in their presence of all their enemies, the whole of their enemies hath Jehovah given into their hand; 45 there hath not fallen a thing of all the good thing which Jehovah spake unto the house of Israel -- the whole hath come. 23 And it cometh to pass, many days after that Jehovah hath given rest to Israel from all their enemies round about, that Joshua is old, entering into days, 2 and Joshua calleth for all Israel, for its elders, and for its heads, and for its judges, and for its authorities, and saith unto them, `I have become old; I have entered into days; 3 and ye -- ye have seen all that Jehovah your God hath done to all these nations because of you, for Jehovah your God [is] He who is fighting for you; 4 see, I have caused to fall to you these nations who are left for an inheritance to your tribes, from the Jordan, (and all the nations which I cut off), and the great sea, the going in of the sun. 5 `As to Jehovah your God, He doth thrust them from your presence, and hath dispossessed them from before you, and ye have possessed their land, as Jehovah your God hath spoken to you, 6 and ye have been very strong to keep and to do the whole that is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, so as not to turn aside from it right or left, 7 so as not to go in among these nations, these who are left with you; and of the name of their gods ye do not make mention, nor do ye swear, nor do ye serve them, nor do ye bow yourselves to them; 8 but to Jehovah your God ye do cleave, as ye have done till this day. 9 And Jehovah is dispossessing from before you nations great and mighty; as for you, none hath stood in your presence till this day; 10 one man of you doth pursue a thousand, for Jehovah your God [is] He who is fighting for you, as He hath spoken to you; 11 and ye have been very watchful for yourselves to love Jehovah your God. 12 `But -- if ye at all turn back and have cleaved to the remnant of these nations, these who are left with you, and intermarried with them, and gone in to them, and they to you, 13 know certainly that Jehovah your God is not continuing to dispossess these nations from before you, and they have been to you for a gin, and for a snare, and for a scourge, in your sides, and for thorns in your eyes, till ye perish from off this good ground which Jehovah your God hath given to you. 14 `And lo, I am going, to-day, in the way of all the earth, and ye have known -- with all your heart, and with all your soul -- that there hath not fallen one thing of all the good things which Jehovah your God hath spoken concerning you; the whole have come to you; there hath not failed of it one thing. 15 `And it hath been, as there hath come upon you all the good thing which Jehovah your God hath spoken unto you, so doth Jehovah bring upon you the whole of the evil thing, till His destroying you from off this good ground which Jehovah your God hath given to you; 16 in your transgressing the covenant of Jehovah your God which He commanded you, and ye have gone and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them, then hath the anger of Jehovah burned against you, and ye have perished hastily from off the good land which He hath given to you.' 5 An aged person thou mayest not rebuke, but be entreating as a father; younger persons as brethren; 2 aged women as mothers, younger ones as sisters -- in all purity; 3 honour widows who are really widows; 4 and if any widow have children or grandchildren, let them learn first to their own house to show piety, and to give back a recompense to the parents, for this is right and acceptable before God. 5 And she who is really a widow and desolate, hath hoped upon God, and doth remain in the supplications and in the prayers night and day, 6 and she who is given to luxury, living -- hath died; 7 and these things charge, that they may be blameless; 8 and if any one for his own -- and especially for those of the household -- doth not provide, the faith he hath denied, and than an unbeliever he is worse. 9 A widow -- let her not be enrolled under sixty years of age, having been a wife of one husband, 10 in good works being testified to: if she brought up children, if she entertained strangers, if saints' feet she washed, if those in tribulation she relieved, if every good work she followed after; 11 and younger widows be refusing, for when they may revel against the Christ, they wish to marry, 12 having judgment, because the first faith they did cast away, 13 and at the same time also, they learn [to be] idle, going about the houses; and not only idle, but also tattlers and busybodies, speaking the things they ought not; 14 I wish, therefore, younger ones to marry, to bear children, to be mistress of the house, to give no occasion to the opposer to reviling; 15 for already certain did turn aside after the Adversary. 16 If any believing man or believing woman have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the assembly be burdened, that those really widows it may relieve. 17 The well-leading elders of double honour let them be counted worthy, especially those labouring in word and teaching, 18 for the Writing saith, `An ox treading out thou shalt not muzzle,' and `Worthy [is] the workman of his reward.' 19 Against an elder an accusation receive not, except upon two or three witnesses. 20 Those sinning, reprove before all, that the others also may have fear; 21 I testify fully, before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the choice messengers, that these things thou mayest keep, without forejudging, doing nothing by partiality. 22 Be laying hands quickly on no one, nor be having fellowship with sins of others; be keeping thyself pure; 23 no longer be drinking water, but a little wine be using, because of thy stomach and of thine often infirmities; 24 of certain men the sins are manifest beforehand, leading before to judgment, and certain also they follow after; 25 in like manner also the right works are manifest beforehand, and those that are otherwise are not able to be hid. #Review

  • “A solution is a strategy, adopted from The Statutes of God, Yahweh.” - G.S

    16 Of man [are] arrangements of the heart, And from Jehovah an answer of the tongue. 2 All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes, And Jehovah is pondering the spirits. 3 Roll unto Jehovah thy works, And established are thy purposes, 4 All things hath Jehovah wrought for Himself, And also the wicked [worketh] for a day of evil. 5 An abomination to Jehovah [is] every proud one of heart, Hand to hand he is not acquitted. 6 In kindness and truth pardoned is iniquity, And in the fear of Jehovah Turn thou aside from evil. 7 When a man's ways please Jehovah, even his enemies, He causeth to be at peace with him. 8 Better [is] a little with righteousness, Than abundance of increase without justice. 9 The heart of man deviseth his way, And Jehovah establisheth his step. 10 An oath [is] on the lips of a king, In judgment his mouth trespasseth not. 11 A just beam and balances [are] Jehovah's, His work [are] all the stones of the bag. 12 An abomination to kings [is] doing wickedness, For by righteousness is a throne established. 13 The delight of kings [are] righteous lips, And whoso is speaking uprightly he loveth, 14 The fury of a king [is] messengers of death, And a wise man pacifieth it. 15 In the light of a king's face [is] life, And his good-will [is] as a cloud of the latter rain. 16 To get wisdom -- how much better than gold, And to get understanding to be chosen than silver! 17 A highway of the upright [is], `Turn from evil,' Whoso is preserving his soul is watching his way. 18 Before destruction [is] pride, And before stumbling -- a haughty spirit.' 19 Better is humility of spirit with the poor, Than to apportion spoil with the proud. 20 The wise in any matter findeth good, And whoso is trusting in Jehovah, O his happiness. 21 To the wise in heart is called, `Intelligent,' And sweetness of lips increaseth learning. 22 A fountain of life [is] understanding to its possessors, The instruction of fools is folly. 23 The heart of the wise causeth his mouth to act wisely, And by his lips he increaseth learning, 24 Sayings of pleasantness [are] a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul, and healing to the bone. 25 There is a way right before a man, And its latter end -- ways of death. 26 A labouring man hath laboured for himself, For his mouth hath caused [him] to bend over it. 27 A worthless man is preparing evil, And on his lips -- as a burning fire. 28 A froward man sendeth forth contention, A tale-bearer is separating a familiar friend. 29 A violent man enticeth his neighbour, And hath causeth him to go in a way not good. 30 Consulting his eyes to devise froward things, Moving his lips he hath accomplished evil. 31 A crown of beauty [are] grey hairs, In the way of righteousness it is found. 32 Better [is] the slow to anger than the mighty, And the ruler over his spirit than he who is taking a city. 33 Into the centre is the lot cast, And from Jehovah [is] all its judgment! #Review

  • “The lies and propitiated agenda that the world offers should be discarded as waste in a basket,

    and the ways of Yahweh be adopted as it is life in Jesus!” - G.S John 1:4-5 KJV [4] In him was life; and the life was the light of men. [5] And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. 4 Beloved, every spirit believe not, but prove the spirits, if of God they are, because many false prophets have gone forth to the world; 2 in this know ye the Spirit of God; every spirit that doth confess Jesus Christ in the flesh having come, of God it is, 3 and every spirit that doth not confess Jesus Christ in the flesh having come, of God it is not; and this is that of the antichrist, which ye heard that it doth come, and now in the world it is already. 4 Ye -- of God ye are, little children, and ye have overcome them; because greater is He who [is] in you, than he who is in the world. 5 They -- of the world they are; because of this from the world they speak, and the world doth hear them; 6 we -- of God we are; he who is knowing God doth hear us; he who is not of God, doth not hear us; from this we know the spirit of the truth, and the spirit of the error. 7 Beloved, may we love one another, because the love is of God, and every one who is loving, of God he hath been begotten, and doth know God; 8 he who is not loving did not know God, because God is love. 9 In this was manifested the love of God in us, because His Son -- the only begotten -- hath God sent to the world, that we may live through him; 10 in this is the love, not that we loved God, but that He did love us, and did send His Son a propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if thus did God love us, we also ought one another to love; 12 God no one hath ever seen; if we may love one another, God in us doth remain, and His love is having been perfected in us; 13 in this we know that in Him we do remain, and He in us, because of His Spirit He hath given us. 14 And we -- we have seen and do testify, that the Father hath sent the Son -- Saviour of the world; 15 whoever may confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God in him doth remain, and he in God; 16 and we -- we have known and believed the love, that God hath in us; God is love, and he who is remaining in the love, in God he doth remain, and God in him. 17 In this made perfect hath been the love with us, that boldness we may have in the day of the judgment, because even as He is, we -- we also are in this world; 18 fear is not in the love, but the perfect love doth cast out the fear, because the fear hath punishment, and he who is fearing hath not been made perfect in the love; 19 we -- we love him, because He -- He first loved us; 20 if any one may say -- `I love God,' and his brother he may hate, a liar he is; for he who is not loving his brother whom he hath seen, God -- whom he hath not seen -- how is he able to love? 21 and this [is] the command we have from Him, that he who is loving God, may also love his brother.

  • Why we must encourage each other?

    “Fake statistics are nothing short of an envious plot to discourage, and that is why we must encourage each other in the true way of life that Yahweh offers us!” - G.S.MinistrDef - 1 John 2:9-29 KJV [9] He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. [10] He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him. [11] But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes. [12] I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake. [13] I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father. [14] I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one. [15] Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. [16] 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. [17] And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. [18] Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. [19] They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. [20] But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. [21] I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. [22] Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. [23] Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. [24] Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father. [25] And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life. [26] These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you. [27] But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. [28] And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming. [29] If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him. 11 O that ye were bearing with me a little of the folly, but ye also do bear with me: 2 for I am zealous for you with zeal of God, for I did betroth you to one husband, a pure virgin, to present to Christ, 3 and I fear, lest, as the serpent did beguile Eve in his subtilty, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that [is] in the Christ; 4 for if, indeed, he who is coming doth preach another Jesus whom we did not preach, or another Spirit ye receive which ye did not receive, or other good news which ye did not accept -- well were ye bearing [it], 5 for I reckon that I have been nothing behind the very chiefest apostles, 6 and even if unlearned in word -- yet not in knowledge, but in every thing we were made manifest in all things to you. 7 The sin did I do -- myself humbling that ye might be exalted, because freely the good news of God I did proclaim to you? 8 other assemblies I did rob, having taken wages, for your ministration; 9 and being present with you, and having been in want, I was chargeable to no one, for my lack did the brethren supply -- having come from Macedonia -- and in everything burdenless to you I did keep myself, and will keep. 10 The truth of Christ is in me, because this boasting shall not be stopped in regard to me in the regions of Achaia; 11 wherefore? because I do not love you? God hath known! 12 and what I do, I also will do, that I may cut off the occasion of those wishing an occasion, that in that which they boast they may be found according as we also; 13 for those such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ, 14 and no wonder -- for even the Adversary doth transform himself into a messenger of light; 15 no great thing, then, if also his ministrants do transform themselves as ministrants of righteousness -- whose end shall be according to their works. 16 Again I say, may no one think me to be a fool; and if otherwise, even as a fool receive me, that I also a little may boast. 17 That which I speak, I speak not according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this the confidence of boasting; 18 since many boast according to the flesh, I also will boast: 19 for gladly do ye bear with the fools -- being wise, 20 for ye bear, if any one is bringing you under bondage, if any one doth devour, if any one doth take away, if any one doth exalt himself, if any one on the face doth smite you; 21 in reference to dishonour I speak, how that we were weak, and in whatever any one is bold -- in foolishness I say [it] -- I also am bold. 22 Hebrews are they? I also! Israelites are they? I also! seed of Abraham are they? I also! 23 ministrants of Christ are they? -- as beside myself I speak -- I more; in labours more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths many times; 24 from Jews five times forty [stripes] save one I did receive; 25 thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice was I shipwrecked, a night and a day in the deep I have passed; 26 journeyings many times, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from kindred, perils from nations, perils in city, perils in wilderness, perils in sea, perils among false brethren; 27 in laboriousness and painfulness, in watchings many times, in hunger and thirst, in fastings many times, in cold and nakedness; 28 apart from the things without -- the crowding upon me that is daily -- the care of all the assemblies. 29 Who is infirm, and I am not infirm? who is stumbled, and I am not fired; 30 if to boast it behoveth [me], of the things of my infirmity I will boast; 31 the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ -- who is blessed to the ages -- hath known that I do not lie! -- 32 In Damascus the ethnarch of Aretas the king was watching the city of the Damascenes, wishing to seize me, 33 and through a window in a rope basket I was let down, through the wall, and fled out of his hands. #Review

  • “Don’t forsake the childlike dependence on God our Father as their devises of play are not worth it.

    - G.S.MinistrDef - “Sometimes sticking with it and staying put together can be hard due to the hindrance of discrediting talks out there, but one needs to stay together and that is done through the Lord.” Ecclesiastes 7:23-29 KJV [23] All this have I proved by wisdom: I said, I will be wise; but it was far from me. [24] That which is far off, and exceeding deep, who can find it out? [25] I applied mine heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things, and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness: [26] And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her. [27] Behold, this have I found, saith the preacher, counting one by one, to find out the account: [28] Which yet my soul seeketh, but I find not: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found. [29] Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions. #Review

  • How to find the peace and rest from God?

    The transition to peace starts when one let’s go of the world and seeks The Way, The Truth, and The Life! 1 John 3:4-24 KJV [4] Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. [5] And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. [6] Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. [7] Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. [8] He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. [9] Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. [10] In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother. [11] For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. [12] Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous. [13] Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you. [14] We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. [15] Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. [16] Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. [17] But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? [18] My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth. [19] And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him. [20] For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. [21] Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God. [22] And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. [23] And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. [24] And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us. #Review
