The importance of Jesus' peace in a Christian's life!

April 24, 2024 19:58 - 11 minutes - 10.9 MB

Jesus is the Prince of Peace, so it stands to reason that if you don't know Him, then you cannot acquire His kind of peace, the ONLY true peace there is. The world spouts a whole lot of hogwash about peace which is only Satan's wolf-like deceit dressed in sheep's clothing, because he doesn't truly desire peace since it will spoil his evil and ungodly business. But in any case, whatever we want in this life, be it LOVE, joy, peace or kindness, we have to actively seek it, but even then, it mu...

The overwhelming importance of Christians maturing in their faith!

April 23, 2024 17:32 - 11 minutes - 10.4 MB

Like everything in this world, we can only improve our knowledge and practice when we spend time learning about whatever we want to do. The same thing applies to Christianity. To be able to put it into practice, we must learn as much as possible about it, spend time in the Word of God and then put it into practice in our lives. Otherwise we'll never grow, never become mature Christians, just remain baby believers all our lives, and like babies who can't do anything for themselves or anybody ...

The overwhelming importance of Christ's body of believers dwelling in unity together!

April 22, 2024 17:43 - 11 minutes - 10.9 MB

For any organization or group to succeed, there must be a coming together of minds and ideas, and the following of one general plan, otherwise chaos will eventually take over. And unfortunately, that's what's happening in the body called Christ's church. We are supposed to be ONE, but we are so disunited and disunified that we're of not much use in the spiritual battle we're supposed to be waging against the enemy of Satan and his group of evil doers. And it must be heartbreaking for Christ ...

The importance of Jesus as our Comforter and Caregiver!

April 21, 2024 18:20 - 11 minutes - 10.6 MB

There are no easy steps in this earthly life, that means we all face troubles and trials, disappointments and disillusions, as we try to walk a careful life. And those times of despair can hit us real hard, and if we're not careful even drive us to harming ourselves. But fortunately that's never the right approach to the situation. And why should it be when we have our great Friend, Comforter and Caregiver Jesus Christ always ready to fill the missing link in our lives. Yes my people, Jesus ...

The importance of knowing Man's short life span.

April 20, 2024 17:37 - 10 minutes - 9.78 MB

Man's life on earth is tough and also short. That means we have to use it to the best of our ability; make the most of the opportunities that come our way, especially that wonderful opportunity to accept Christ as Lord and Saviour, and be assured of salvation and eternal life, for that's the best option we have! Satan has nothing good to offer us, but the Lord gave us free will so that we could choose. So please, let's be wise and do as Moses told the Israelites, choose life, or Jesus Chris...

The overwhelming importance of believers controlling their thoughts and actions.

April 19, 2024 17:12 - 10 minutes - 10.1 MB

Simply put, life is a battle, fought on the battlefield of our minds. That means all the people out there are fighting to control our minds, to control what we think, talk about and therefore do. Now there are all sorts of evil and ungodly powers and people involved in this battle for supremacy over our minds, but basically it breaks down to a battle between Satan's cronies and those of Jesus. And the wise money is on Jesus. That means we must use the spiritual weapons provided by Him, along...

The importance of giving thanks and praise to Almighty God.

April 18, 2024 18:37 - 13 minutes - 12.1 MB

God has made preparation for all of our needs from the time we're born to the time He takes us home. But we have to read His Word and listen to His Holy Spirit to understand what's necessary for us to get all we are entitled to. And thus, it also behooves us to give God thanks and praise for His wonderful attention to our needs, both our everyday needs like food and shelter, but also our needs in the life to come, that's salvation through belief in His Son Jesus Christ, who shed His blood on...

The importance of Christians being very careful in their speech!

April 17, 2024 18:57 - 12 minutes - 11.4 MB

Life is made good or bad by the words we speak to each other. We can speak either pleasant and uplifting words, or unpleasant and hurting ones. But as Christians, we need to focus on good and pleasant words, because that's the example Jesus set for us during His sojourn here on earth, and it's the example He expects us to follow. However, Beelzebub is so powerful on the earth these days that he's leading us to use evil and deceitful words, words that are ungodly, strife-filled, bitter, envio...

The importance of acclamations in a believer's life.

April 16, 2024 17:27 - 11 minutes - 10.4 MB

In this evil and ungodly world, it's necessary for Christians to know bits of useful scripture that they can learn and speak out loud to help them in their everyday Christian walk. These acclamations as we call them, boost our spirits and strengthen our belief in Christ by giving us confidence in the Word of God and His many promises. They allow us to quell whatever fear(s) crop up as we journey along in life, and help us to adopt a good and right attitude to our situations. So, let's learn ...

The importance of the Holy Spirit in a believer's life!

April 15, 2024 18:04 - 11 minutes - 10.4 MB

Our Triune God is made up of three people, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Father sent the Son to save the world by dying on the cross at Calvary, then rising on Easter Sunday. Then when the Son returned to heaven to be seated at His right hand and intercede for us, the Father sent the Holy Spirit, as He had promised a long time ago, to dwell in the hearts of believers, so that He could remind them of Jesus' words and works and lead them in a godly direction. But like the Father...

The overwhelming importance of Christ's shed blood to the Christian faith!

April 14, 2024 18:09 - 13 minutes - 12.2 MB

Simply put friends, without the shedding of Christ's blood on the cross of Calvary on Good Friday, we would still be headed straight for purgatory or hellfire and damnation; eternal separation from Almighty God! For without the shedding of blood, sinless blood like Christ's no permanent atonement is possible. But Christ, through His selfless sacrifice, changed all that, and brought us back to the Father, justifying reconciling, forgiving, sanctifying etc. etc. so that we could be once again ...

The importance of believers knowing the great importance of the Old Testament to the New Testament!

April 13, 2024 17:51 - 10 minutes - 9.88 MB

The Old Testament is basically a foreshadowing of the New Testament. Thus a lot of stuff, like promises and prophecy can be found in the Old Testament and be fulfilled or manifested in the New. From the beginning of the Bible, the appearance of Jesus on earth was prophesied and spoken of as the coming of the Messiah. So it's not strange to find Old Testament verses reflected or referenced in the New Testament. Jesus did it Himself when He stood up in His hometown of Nazareth to read from the...

The importance of NEVER giving up on God!

April 12, 2024 17:58 - 10 minutes - 9.65 MB

In this life we never know what trials and tribulations might come against us, or when, but one thing is certain, if we stay attached and surrendered to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, He will eventually turn our circumstances around. And if He doesn't, for whatever reason we may not like, or understand, He will most certainly help us to bear our burdens with a good attitude. And I know that we don't like to go through tough times, but that's just the way of the world, and being a discipl...

The importance of recognizing Jesus as the Light of the world!

April 11, 2024 16:43 - 10 minutes - 9.73 MB

Ah friends, evil has overtaken our world, and that evil hides itself in darkness, so that it's deeds cannot be known, and keeps all evil doers in that darkness. But Jesus came to earth that we could escape that evil darkness and have the light of eternal life through His death and resurrection. And isn't it wonderful to know that we now have another option besides the evil darkness of Satan? Surely! But the problem is that if want to escape the evil darkness of Beelzebub, we have to come to ...

The importance of new believers putting on His new mantle!

April 10, 2024 18:49 - 12 minutes - 11.4 MB

The world is evil and ungodly, we all know that, but in Christ we can make both good individual and worldwide changes. However, the individual change must come before the worldwide one, where believers must put on the new man in Christ; that's accept Christ's new godliness and way of living, while putting aside their old, evil and ungodly lifestyle. It's either one or the either, there's no sitting on the fence, you're either new fashioned in Christ, or old fashioned in the devil. And sadly,...

The importance of Christians growing in spiritual maturity!

April 09, 2024 16:43 - 13 minutes - 12.2 MB

Life is a complex affair, and the Christian faith, is no different. Though we can come to faith quite easily, because it's the gift of God, we then need to work out our own salvation, that's live the way Christ desires His followers to live. We need to learn Christ's word, study it, and then put it tinto action in our lives, meaning we need to grow up, like children, who first begin by drinking milk, then as they get older begin eating solid food. Likewise as we grow in our Christian faith, ...

The importance of believers truly reverencing the Lord!

April 08, 2024 17:38 - 10 minutes - 9.92 MB

There is only ONE way to true success, and that's by doing what the Lord says in His Word. Read your Bible, study it, and then put what it says into action! It's as simple as that! And yes, that's not always easy to do, but if we truly want to do it, with the Lord's help, we certainly can. But it all begins with us, sincerely wanting to live right in this ungodly and evil world. And yes, the powers of evil will push against us, but let's remember that greater is He that's in us, than he that...

The importance of recognizing Jesus' magnificent work on our behalf.

April 07, 2024 19:35 - 11 minutes - 10.8 MB

Friends, if Jesus did not do what He's done in a rather selfless manner, we would not have salvation and eternal life right now. Therefore it's utterly important to recognize His overwhelming importance in the scheme of things, and give Him His rightful praise and glory. The Father recognized it and exalted him to the loftiest heights possible, likewise we should exalt His holy name, and not just with words, but more importantly with action; sincere action, so that others can come to know, L...

The overwhelming importance of LOVE and OBEDIENCE in a believer's life!

April 06, 2024 16:39 - 10 minutes - 9.51 MB

If Christ is our End All and Be All, then we need to do whatever He says, and live the way He desires of us. Otherwise, we will not be showing others that we are His sincere followers. And that, unfortunately, will diminish and destroy all that Jesus has worked so hard and suffered so much to accomplish. It's utterly important that those who follow a Leader, obey His rules and abide by His commands. And in Jesus' organization, that means LOVING each other the way that He first LOVED us. What...

The overwhelming importance of OBEDIENCE in a believer's life!

April 05, 2024 19:32 - 11 minutes - 10.9 MB

If we consider the Lord our Father, and Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour, then it's of the utmost importance that we obey them as soon as possible. Remember that obedience put off till we feel like doing it is still disobedience in the Lord's eyes. It's necessary that we do His bidding in the least possible time frame, or in other words; when He asks us, and how He asks us. Doing it in our time and way won't cut it, we'll still be considered disobedient and pay whatever price is necessary. ...

The overwhelming importance of accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour!

April 04, 2024 17:52 - 11 minutes - 10.9 MB

Oh friends our world is in a sad state, and the only way we can handle it, or whatever comes against us, is by having Jesus as our Lord and Saviour, for Satan, our other choice as leader, doesn't have a single good thing to offer; nothing but hell, death and the grave. Meanwhile, when Jesus died on Good Friday then rose again on Easter Sunday, he throttled Satan and all his kingdom. Thus He became the winner of the battle between good and evil. Now, if we are wise, and use the free will that...

The ramification of Easter in a believer's life Part 2!

April 03, 2024 18:15 - 11 minutes - 11.1 MB

Good Friday determined that our sins were paid for, while Easter Sunday and Christ's resurrection ensured that all those who believe in Him will also rise again from the dead and have eternal life, spend eternity with Him. And if that isn't the greatest thing since sliced bread, I don't know what is! And also, if each and every one of us don't rise to the situation and receive Christ as Lord and Saviour, then wisdom has certainly passed us by, because the only other option is spending eterni...

The ramifications of Easter Part 1.

April 02, 2024 16:12 - 11 minutes - 10.8 MB

Ah friends, Easter is one of the most important times in our Christian calendar, but do we really understand what happened two thousand years ago, and truly appreciate it? Not all of us. Two basic things happened: Christ died on Good Friday to pay for our sins, then He was rose from the dead on Easter Sunday! Those two things gave us forgiveness of sins, and eternal life. But we have things to do to make them happen. And that's what we all need to know. Salvation and Eternal Life don't happe...

The importance of BALANCE in a believer's life!

April 01, 2024 16:54 - 11 minutes - 10.5 MB

In this world, we can either do too much or too little of anything. The important thing though is to find a comfortable balance in most of what we do. That includes our diet, our work and play, our fitness, as well as our time with God. The latter being possibly the most important of them all. But it's ever so much better for us when our ying and yang aline and keep us free to enjoy our lives without too much anxiety, tension and stress. The problem here is that only the individual can regul...

The overwhelming importance of Christ's Resurrection!

March 31, 2024 18:35 - 13 minutes - 12.2 MB

Oh friends, we all know that someday we'll die and our bodies will be buried and return to the dust from which they were made, but our spirits will still be alive and either go to heaven or hell, depending on whom we believe in, Jesus or Satan. And the only reason why heaven is even an option for us is because Jesus died on Good Friday to pay for our sins, then rose from the grave, three days later, on Easter Sunday. That satisfied the demands of the Father for reconciliation with Him. Befor...

The importance of prophecy in Christ's life!

March 30, 2024 18:24 - 12 minutes - 11.9 MB

A lot of the Old Testament speaks to Christ's coming in the New Testament. None more so than Isaiah's prophetic words of the Servant of the Lord found in chapter 53. It might be spoken in old fashioned Old Testament language, but there's no misunderstanding that it refers to Christ's coming and all the wonderful work He will do on our behalf, as well as all the 'sufferation' He would undergo to pay for our abominable sins. But the deed has already been done, that means, if we are wise, we ca...

The overwhelming importance of Good Friday in the Christian faith!

March 29, 2024 20:43 - 10 minutes - 9.94 MB

We all talk about atonement and payment for sins, but do we know how that was really accomplished? Only by Christ suffering and dying on the cross at Calvary on Good Friday for us! That's how we can talk about forgiveness of sin. The Father required Christ's sinless life to pay for our abominable transgressions. And if we had any decency and /or common sense, we'd be paying much more attention to Christ's desires and commands, because it's only through His death that our sins can be forgiven...

The importance of Maundy Thursday to our faith.

March 28, 2024 18:45 - 13 minutes - 12.7 MB

Maundy Thursday gave us several things in our faith. First, Jesus inspired our ceremony of holy communion when He broke bread and offered it, along with wine to the disciples in recognition of His broken body and shed blood that would happen the next day, Good Friday. Then He washed the disciples' feet setting an example that we ought to follow, meaning being proud to be sometimes servants and not simply always desirous of being lords. Then the example of His poignant prayer in the Garden of...

The overwhelming importance of believers truly living their faith!

March 27, 2024 16:25 - 11 minutes - 10.4 MB

Too many of us supposed Christians say one thing then do something else. That's not right! That's why Jesus called the Pharisees 'hypocrites.' They desired the people to do things that they did not do themselves, teaching man's traditions more than God's law. And it's exactly what's happening in our world today. Hypocrisy is rife and rampant as Satan and his evil doers rule the roost, while we supposed Christians, cower in fear and shame and comfort, instead of fighting the good fight of Chr...

The overwhelming importance of believing that Almighty God LOVES us!

March 26, 2024 18:35 - 9 minutes - 8.33 MB

Friends, God created us out of a desire to have strong and faithful communion with us, and consequently showered His great, unconditional LOVE upon us. He wanted creatures to communicate with, so He decided to create a being in His own image, with His breath of life flowing through it. Now, if the Lord in His omniscience, who knows everything, decided to go through with this creation business, fully knowing that we would eventually rebel, and yet He still did it, that could only mean one thi...

The overwhelming importance of LOVE and sacrifice in a believer's life!

March 25, 2024 17:35 - 11 minutes - 11 MB

Christianity is based on LOVE: the LOVE of God the Father, and the LOVE of Jesus Christ! That means we believers need to be also filled with LOVE and walking in LOVE! And LOVE means SACRIFICE! Yes, you cannot LOVE without sacrificing something for someone, even for yourself. And that's where we are falling down in this generation; we're too comfortable and entitled to give up anything for anyone, but yet we call ourselves believers in Christ Jesus. Hogwash! You cannot truly believe in Christ...

The importance of Palm Sunday in the Christian Calendar!

March 24, 2024 18:46 - 11 minutes - 10.9 MB

When we come to Palm Sunday, which tells of Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, we know that Lent is winding down and our saddest and most joyful days, that's Good Friday and Easter Sunday are right ahead of us. That means we cannot let the sorrow of the crucifixion overwhelm and sadden us, because right behind it is the very foundation of our faith, Christ's momentous and monumental resurrection! It's the very bedrock of what we believe, and without that resurrection there would have bee...

The importance of believers praying in God's will!

March 23, 2024 17:19 - 11 minutes - 10.2 MB

Prayer is of the utmost importance in a believer's life, but not every prayer is answered for one reason or another. Most of them though that are not in the Lord's will seem to go unanswered, that's because the Lord only desires to answer prayers that will manifest His holy will, not all the lustful and carnal stuff that so many of us pray for. And even when we pray in His will, according to His timing, the prayer can be set aside for a later time. But that ought not to stop us from growing ...

The importance of not boasting in a believer's life.

March 22, 2024 17:12 - 11 minutes - 10.5 MB

All of us have some sort of pride in our deeds and talents and thus at times boast about them. However friends, boasting is not something the Lord likes or desires of His followers, unless our boast is about Him! What makes it even worse is when we boast of things we're going to do without any consultation with or input from Almighty God. Remember our lives are rather short and can be quickly and unexpectedly extinguished, so it's ever important to have God involved in ALL of our decisions. ...

The importance of believer's becoming new creations in Christ!

March 21, 2024 18:56 - 12 minutes - 11.4 MB

We all have a sin-based nature, which drives us toward fleshly or carnal lusts and desires, but when we become believers in Christ, we need to put away those carnal desires and begin walking with the guidance of the Holy Spirit which then comes to live within us. It also means that we have to get rid of all the old baggage we have, for with Christ everything becomes new. Unfortunately, that means not doing some things we used to do, or associating with some people we formerly associated with...

The overwhelming importance in a believer's life of heeding God's Law!

March 20, 2024 17:43 - 11 minutes - 10.2 MB

God is our Creator and Controller, and like all who create and control, they lay down rules and regulations for their followers to live by. It's the very same with our great God Jehovah! He's set our rules and regulations in His Word for us to live by. And if we do that faithfully, then our lives will be much better than if we don't. And we can't live by the rules unless we know them, and we can't know them unless we continually read and study them. That's the ONLY way to have success in God...

The overwhelming importance of OBEDIENCE in the believer's life!

March 19, 2024 15:51 - 11 minutes - 10.8 MB

Just like any Leader, the Lord has rules and regulations that He expects His followers to abide by. And just like when we disobey society's laws, we pay a price, likewise when we disobey God's laws, there is a price to pay. Our disobedience is called sin, and the penalty for sin is death; unless you are living under the umbrella of Christ's payment for all sin, made with the sacrifice of His sinless life on the cross of Calvary. It's to our benefit that we remember that the Lord does not mak...

The overwhelming importance of BELIEF in a Christian's Life!

March 18, 2024 18:22 - 12 minutes - 11.9 MB

It's a hard but simple fact that one cannot be a Christian unless one believes in Jesus Christ, the Son of God. And that belief is the ONLY thing that will get you on the straight and narrow path that leads to heaven. Without sincere belief in Christ Jesus all is lost. You are automatically headed for the fires of hell, joining the evil one, Satan in everlasting punishment and separation from the One and ONLY true, living God, Jehovah! Thus, it behooves us to understand the serious ramificat...

The importance of sinners knowing that God will NEVER turn them away

March 17, 2024 18:02 - 11 minutes - 11 MB

It's a topsy-turvy world, with us just spinning within it, like an out of control top, with sins and temptations that keep bombarding us relentlessly. But there's an antidote for that malady; faith in Christ Jesus, for He is the sinner's friend. That's why he came to earth; to set the captive sinners free from their sin debt. He took all of our sins on His strong and sinless shoulders so we could be set free from the scourge of Satan. And there's no need to hide or be afraid to come to Him, ...

The overwhelming importance of prayer in a believer's life!

March 16, 2024 17:26 - 11 minutes - 11 MB

God is our Creator and Sustainer, therefore we must communicate with Him in some form and fashion, and He calls that way prayer. Now, prayer doesn't need to be long and fancy but more heartfelt than anything else. And the good thing about prayer is that our God is only a prayer away. We can instantly communicate with Him with no waiting, and provided that what we're asking is within His will, He will more than likely give it to us, just in His time. (smile) And that's the toughest thing abou...

The importance of not complaining in a believers life!

March 15, 2024 16:54 - 11 minutes - 10.9 MB

Oh friends, life is never easy, but as true believers in Christ Jesus, we are expected to have a certain amount of belly and backbone that will keep us from complaining unnecessarily about life's troubles. And it's not so much that we complain, but it's how we complain and what we complain about. In today's world complaining is rampant, and over very small and petty issues, meaning that most of our complaints are worthless and sinful. So please, let's wake up and realize that we're only dama...

The overwhelming importance of Christians believing in the Lord's omnipotence!

March 14, 2024 17:21 - 12 minutes - 12 MB

The Lord, the Creator of heaven and earth is the most omnipotent and powerful being in the universe. He had to be great, to be all powerful, to do the things He's done down through the ages. And unless we believers sincerely believe that, we'll be in for an even tougher time than normal on this earth. For things will get real bad if you don't believe that God can take you out of undesirable situations, even those that you got yourself into. So please, let's believe with all our hearts, bodie...

The overwhelming importance of FORGIVENESS in Christianity!

March 13, 2024 17:56 - 12 minutes - 11.2 MB

It's very simple friends; if we forgive those that do us wrong, we also get forgiven for our wrongdoings. However, if we don't forgive, then we won't be forgiven by our heavenly Father either. So it's simple common sense that if we desire God's forgiveness then we must be forgiving to our earthly brothers! It couldn't get any simpler or plainer than that. And Jesus spent a lot of time trying to get that simple equation into our stubborn and hard-hearted hearts. But we still practice unforgiv...

The overwhelming importance of HOPE and FAITH in Christianity!

March 12, 2024 18:43 - 11 minutes - 10.5 MB

Without hope we are like the undead; alive, but not functioning as though we are. It's hope and faith that keep us going through all the rough times of this life. We need to believe in something bigger than ourselves when we find ourselves too small and powerless to handle our many problems. And that's where hope and faith come in, through our Christian beliefs. Christ is our Guide and Leader, our Anchor in the times of storm, the Giver of Eternal Life, through whom we have pass to get to Go...

The importance of going to church, where wisdom abounds for the taking.

March 11, 2024 18:31 - 11 minutes - 10.2 MB

We are all searching for wisdom, but so many of us are searching for it in the wrong places. And where should wisdom be sought eh? Wisdom, true wisdom begins and ends with God, with Hs Word and in His sanctuary. What the world terms wisdom these days is utter rot, for most of it has nothing to do with Almighty God, and if it doesn't have to do with God, then it cannot be wisdom. True wisdom though has EVERYTHING to do with God. So please, let's apply ourselves unto wisdom nuh, by studying Hi...

The importance of complete surrender to God if we desire His complete attention!

March 10, 2024 18:33 - 12 minutes - 11.8 MB

Life is rough and tough, as Jesus tells us, but we can soften some of those rough edges if we completely surrender our lives to Him, because He has the wherewithal to help us do so, especially since He has already overcome the world, through His death, resurrection and ascension. And that's the best way to live this life; totally surrendered to Jesus, so He can lead and guide us in the paths of righteousness, lead us beside the still waters, and restore our souls, as well as prepare a table ...

The overwhelming importance of believes walking and working together in LOVE!

March 09, 2024 18:27 - 11 minutes - 10.5 MB

The major attribute of our God is LOVE; therefore His followers ought to be showing that attribute, at least to each other in spades, and as Jesus expects, showing it also to those who don't believe, so that they might believe. But if Christ's organization, His church is in a state of such disarray that His followers are fighting amongst each other, rather than living in LOVE as Christ desires, then it's obvious the organization will not be a welcoming sight to others, and we will be killing...

The importance of believers being spiritually involved and not merely playing a religious role.

March 08, 2024 18:19 - 13 minutes - 12.2 MB

Contrary to what we think, the Lord doesn't tell us to do stuff for Hie benefit, but for ours. He already owns everything and can do whatever He wants. However we are the sheep of His flock and need to do what we're told, and not half-heartedly or partially either, but with full reverence and total obedience. And yes, sometimes it's difficult to do all the Lord asks, but remember, He never asks or tells us to do anything without giving us the grace, the anointing to do it. But because of our...

The overwhelming importance of believers continually praising our great God!

March 07, 2024 18:09 - 12 minutes - 11.2 MB

God is our Creator and Controller, and if we have any sense of the power and wisdom that's been put into the creation of our universe, we'd continually praise the One who created it and us! Yes friends, there's nothing as stimulating, mind-bending and awe-inducing as the great universe in which we live. Nothing else is as refined and works as smoothly as God's universe, until we foolish humans come and destroy that unique and wonderful interconnectivity that exists amongst all God's creation...

The importance of believers sincerely adopting the characteristics the Lord desires them to have!

March 06, 2024 20:44 - 10 minutes - 10.2 MB

If we believe in Christ Jesus, then it means we must behave in a certain manner, basically the way He behaved; that's LOVING, compassionate, doing His Father's will, etc. etc. Thus we cannot be hanging out with the wrong crowd, doing the things that go against God's law, otherwise we will end up like the evildoers and perish. As true believers we need to keep good company, people who truly desire to do God's will and actually do it, not merely talk it. Then we will be supernaturally blessed....
