In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus imparts timeless wisdom on the act of giving. He encourages us to give with a heart of humility and compassion, emphasizing that our motives matter as much as the gift itself. Let’s delve into the profound teachings of Matthew 6:3-4: 1. The Hidden Hand of Compassion “But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret.” (Matthew 6:3) Key Takeaway: When we give selflessly, without seeking recognition or applause, we create a sacred space where our acts of kindness are known only to God. 2. The Unseen Reward “Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” (Matthew 6:4) Key Takeaway: Our heavenly Father sees beyond the visible—He observes the motives behind our deeds. The reward for secret giving is not necessarily material wealth or earthly acclaim. Instead, it’s the intimacy of divine approval and the assurance that our actions align with His will. 3. Acts 3:6 - The Power of Nameless Generosity “But Peter said, ‘I have no silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!’” Key Takeaway: Peter’s response to the beggar at the temple gate exemplifies spiritual wealth over material riches. Sometimes, our greatest gifts are not monetary; they are the healing touch, the encouraging word, or the selfless act that points others to Christ. 4. Treasures in Heaven “But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.” (Matthew 6:20, ESV) Key Takeaway: Earthly treasures fade, but heavenly treasures endure. Our investments in love, kindness, and compassion yield eternal dividends. They form the fabric of our heavenly inheritance. 5. Where Your Heart Resides “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” (Matthew 6:21, ESV) Key Takeaway: Our priorities reveal the true condition of our hearts. By directing our resources toward eternal purposes, we align our hearts with God’s kingdom. In summary, let us embrace the beauty of secret giving, knowing that our Father sees every hidden act of kindness. May our hearts overflow with treasures that transcend time and echo in eternity. 🌟🙏

Hello, I am Michael Hopkins from Dexter, Missouri. I am the Chief Executive Officer of Jehovah Saints Global Outreach, and the Founder of Jehovah’s HOUSE of Saints. Addressing Homelessness: A Priority A significant amount of time and effort has been invested in putting together a comprehensive plan to help the homeless in the USA. Our first priority is to allocate funds to assist the homeless in the USA, setting an example for the world. It’s essential that we address our own challenges before extending aid globally. Expanding Horizons: India, Pakistan, and Uganda Now, I work with India, Pakistan, and Uganda. I have assigned people in their own countries to assist them in creating programs to help in their homelessness. I currently have not donated, or given any funding outside the USA, until our own homeless situation is solved in America. A Matter of Perspective Would you build a shelter for your neighbor while your own family is living without one? Or would you build shelter for your neighboring Country, while your own people in your country are without one? It is all about perspective, a better understanding. There are many that go globally helping others. I praise them, but have they thought about their brothers and sisters within their own country? I am not putting anyone down, like I said I praise them for their efforts, but maybe they never thought of it that way. A Mission of Peace I am here to create peace worldwide. I need an Archbishop in every Country of the world, and by saying that, please understand if I do not have the time to talk with you, this does not make you less than. We are all one working together, because in time I will have 195 Archbishops Worldwide, which means I will be in constant contact with 195 people at any given moment. This is why I also need Doctors, Lawyers, Judges, Ministers, Volunteers, no matter who you are, or where you are from, God can use you for the greater good of the people in your Country. The Word says, “Strive for peace with everyone” ~ Hebrews 12:14 Uniting All Faiths I am also here to Unite all Faiths that believe in the God of Abraham. All three Abrahamic religions—Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, They all believe in one God, whom they refer to as the “God of Abraham”. This shared belief in a single, supreme God named “Jehovah” in English, “Yahweh” in Hebrew, and “Allah” in Arabic language. Jews and Muslims share a common ancestor in “Father Abraham”, as they are both descendants of his sons. Muslims are descendants of Abraham’s son Ishmael, and Jews are descendants of Abraham’s son Isaac. And did you know Jesus spoke Aramaic Language, which is a Arabic Language Read Mark 15:34 A Call for Understanding and Peace Now with all of this being said, like God said, “Not everyone does their job” I will let you interpret that as you may. If everyone did their research before judging others, we would not have a world in chaos, fighting each other, not even knowing you are harming your own brothers and sisters, descendants of Father Abraham. Do you think that the Devil doesn’t open that Bible and Quran and corrupt Christians and Muslims thoughts with confusion? The Bible says, “For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.” 1 Corinthians 14:33 Do not believe what every preacher says to you, as many do not do their homework, you research what they said, and find the truth for yourself, as this is how your Faith is built. Everything I will ever say to you I back with scripture. God bless, and I look forward to working with everyone on earth for the greater good of mankind. #HomelessnessPriority #USAhomelessness #globaloutreach #charityprograms #helpinghand #communitysupport #endhomelessness #buildingshelters #perspectiveiseverything #globalleadership #humanitarianefforts #unityinfaith #Abrahamicreligions #internationalpeace #workingtogether #volunteerism #peacebuilding #worldwideconnections #findingtruth #FaithandScripture #Godsblessing #greatergood #unitingmankind

Many people leave the Church because they perceive contradictions in the Bible. This perception often arises when the Word is not properly presented. Indeed, the Bible can seem to contradict itself if one does not know how to explain these apparent contradictions with further scripture. Not everyone throughout the Bible held the same beliefs, which is what faith is - a personal belief. Thus, there are many faiths. Understanding Sin and Faith through Romans 14 To fully understand this, one must read the entire chapter of Romans 14. What is considered a sin for one person may not be a sin for another. Sin is essentially a mistake. For example, in Romans 14, those with weaker faith believe in consuming only herbs, whereas those with stronger faith consume wine and meats. If those with weaker faith consume meat and wine, it is a sin for them because they believe they have done something wrong. However, in God’s eyes, they have not. The stronger faith should not tempt the weaker faith with meat and wine. It hurts them spiritually. Proverbs 17:22 states, “a broken spirit (soul) drieth the bones,” indicating that when those with weaker faith partake in something they believe is wrong, it harms their physical body, even though what they did was acceptable in God’s eyes. Biblical Figures and Their Faiths In 2 Samuel 12:7-8, God "gave" David all of Saul’s wives. These women were given to David directly by God Himself, demonstrating that God did not see anything wrong with David having multiple wives. Yet, it is rare to find a preacher who has taught that God “gave” David all of Saul’s wives. King David had a strong faith and knew this was acceptable in God’s eyes. However, Paul in the Bible, who had a weaker faith or understanding than King David, as Paul believed that a man should only have one wife. This is what preachers often preach because they do not fully understand the Word. This causes confusion. Would you prefer to have a strong faith like King David or a weaker understanding faith like Paul? Father Abraham had two wives and also had children by his girlfriends. King Solomon had many wives and girlfriends as well. Preachers teach on David’s words in Psalms, and Solomon’s words in Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Solomon, yet they preach against the stronger faiths of David, Solomon, and Abraham, as to having many wives. Yet, it was God who gave these women to them. Choosing Your Faith People claim to be descendants of Father Abraham and if they are, shouldn't they strive to embody the values and principles of their forefather? This belief in lineage should motivate individuals to emulate the character and virtues of Abraham in their own lives, reflecting his wisdom, compassion, and integrity. By aligning their actions with the legacy of Abraham, descendants can contribute positively to society and uphold the values that their ancestors stood for. Do you want to be a leader like David, Solomon, and Abraham? If the answer is yes, then preach the truth, because as Jesus said, “the truth will set you free” (John 8:32). Or do you want to be like Paul? The choice is yours. God will love you the same. "Delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4 This scripture was written by King David, a mighty man of God. "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD." Isaiah 55:8 This verse explains to us, that our way of "thinking" is not the way God "thinks" #BibleContradictions #UnderstandingFaith #ChristianBeliefs #BiblicalTeachings #SpiritualJourney #FaithInGod #FindingTruth #FaithStruggles #BibleInterpretation #ChristianFaith #ScriptureStudy #FaithJourney #BiblicalWisdom #DavidAndSolomon #AbrahamicFaith #BiblicalLegacy #LivingFaithfully #ReligiousBeliefs #ChristianEthics #FaithLeadership #FaithCommunity #HealingThroughFaith #BiblicalValues #FaithExperiences #SpiritualGrowth #LivingByFaith #FaithInAction #ChallengingBeliefs #FindingAnswers #TheologicalDebates #FaithAndMorality #ChoosingYourFaith

On March 16th, 2024, Kenya witnessed a significant moment in its ongoing journey. Pastor Victor Odhiambo, a devoted volunteer of Jehovah Saints Global Outreach, played a pivotal role. During his interactions, he met with team leaders and fellow recovery team pastors. His message resonated with passion as he shared about the Jehovah’s HOUSE of Saints, a great family that received enthusiastic approval from those he met. The impact of this outreach effort is profound, especially considering the 46,639 homeless individuals living on the streets of Kenya. “For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.” (Matthew 25:35) May their shelters be more than bricks and mortar—they shall be symbols of love, compassion, and unwavering faith. Pastor Victor’s mission to end homelessness is commendable, and his dedication exemplifies the spirit of compassion and service. As Kenya grapples with this pressing issue, his work serves as a beacon of hope for those in need. Let us recognize and support such tireless efforts toward a more compassionate and just society. 🙏 Pastor Victor Odhiambo and his wife.

By Michael Hopkins Dexter, Missouri – On March 15, 2024, a significant meeting took place between representatives of the Jehovah Saints of India and concerned individuals. The focus of this gathering was to discuss the pressing issue of homelessness in India and explore ways to alleviate the suffering of those affected. The Homelessness Crisis in India India, a nation of immense diversity and rich cultural heritage, grapples with a sobering reality: 1.77 million people are homeless. This staggering number represents approximately 0.15% of the country’s total population. The urgency of addressing this crisis cannot be overstated, and the Jehovah Saints of India have taken it upon themselves to make a difference. Jehovah’s HOUSE of Saints: A Beacon of Hope Led by Archbishop G. Elisha Chennaiah, the Jehovah Saints of India have embarked on an ambitious initiative. Their vision is to establish more Jehovah’s HOUSE of Saints Churches across India. These churches serve as not only places of worship but also as centers for community outreach, humanitarian aid, and support for the most vulnerable. Bringing Hearts Closer to God During the meeting, attendees emphasized the profound connection between faith and compassion. As Michael Hopkins, a key participant, eloquently stated, “When you have God in your heart, you want to help those in need.” By expanding the network of churches, the Jehovah Saints aim to draw more people’s hearts toward God, inspiring acts of kindness and service. India’s Generosity and a Thought-Provoking Response Interestingly, during the meeting, it came to light that India had offered financial assistance to the United States. However, Michael Hopkins responded with a resolute “no.” His reasoning was clear: With millions of homeless individuals within India’s borders, the priority must be to utilize resources to address their plight. It is a testament to India’s compassion that they prioritize their own citizens’ well-being. A Call for Global Solidarity As the discussion unfolded, the hope emerged that other nations, including the Americas, would follow India’s example. The challenge lies in fostering a collective spirit of kindness and empathy. If we all heed the call to action, we can create a world where homelessness becomes a distant memory. Jehovah’s HOUSE of Saints: Making an Impact Already, the Jehovah Saints of India have established two Jehovah’s HOUSE of Saints Churches within the country. These centers serve as beacons of hope, providing shelter, sustenance, and spiritual guidance to those in need. The tireless efforts of the saints demonstrate that compassion knows no boundaries. A Grateful Conclusion At the end of the meeting, Brother Elisha Chennaiah led a heartfelt prayer, expressing gratitude for the opportunity to come together and make a difference. And as Archbishop G. Elisha Chennaiah after meeting reflected, “This meeting was the will of the Lord God the Father. Glory be to His name, Amen.” The journey to end homelessness is ongoing, but with dedicated individuals like the Jehovah Saints of India, there is hope for a brighter, more compassionate future. #IndiaHomelessness #JehovahSaintsofIndia #CommunityOutreach #HumanitarianAid #HomelessnessCrisis #EndingHomelessness #FaithAndCompassion #GlobalSolidarity #BeaconOfHope #ActOfKindness #SpiritualGuidance #MakingADifference #HomelessCrisisIndia #HopeForTheFuture #Generosity #UnityInCompassion #ServeThoseInNeed #NoMoreHomelessness #GodsWill #BrighterFuture #CommunitySupport #HomelessOutreach #AlleviatingSuffering #BrotherElishaChennaiah #MichaelHopkins #ChangingLives #GratefulHeart #GodsStrength #EmpathyAndKindness #HomelessPopulation #IndiaGenerosity #ReflectingOnMeeting #SupportingVulnerablePopulation

By Michael Hopkins Nairobi, Kenya – On March 15, 2024, a significant and joyous occasion unfolded via a Zoom meeting. Michael Hopkins, with great discernment, appointed Josphat Isoe as the Pastor of Jehovah’s HOUSE of Saints in the vibrant city of Nairobi, Kenya. This appointment marks a pivotal moment in the spiritual journey of the congregation, signifying a new chapter filled with hope, faith, and purpose. A Grateful Heart In his own heartfelt words, Josphat Isoe expressed profound gratitude. He shared that he is blessed to be united in marriage with his beloved wife, Vellah, and together, they joyfully embrace parenthood as proud parents of a daughter. Their roots trace back to the picturesque Mogonga Sub-County in Kisii County, nestled within the Nyanza Province of Kenya, East Africa. Josphat’s upbringing in a devout Christian home laid the foundation for his unwavering commitment to the Word of God and the principles of righteous living. Bold Faith and Sacrifice As Josphat matured, God continued to orchestrate divine opportunities for him to boldly live out his faith. During his formative years in Secondary School, he and his best friend made a sacrificial choice: they forfeited their lunchtime to establish a Bible club. Despite the brevity of this window allowed by the school, God’s blessings flowed abundantly through their efforts. Now, as the newly appointed pastor, Josphat recognizes that the congregation, though currently small, will undoubtedly grow over time—much like the human body evolves into adulthood. His ministry operates from a home base, understanding that every significant journey commences with a single step of faith. Impactful Programs Jehovah’s HOUSE of Saints is committed to several impactful programs, each driven by compassion and unwavering faith: Homeless Shelter Program: Providing shelter, warmth, and support to those in need. Bible Classes in Schools Initiative: Fostering spiritual education within educational institutions, nurturing young hearts and minds. Pro-Life Campaign: Advocating passionately for the sanctity of life, recognizing its divine origin and inherent worth. Prison Ministry: Extending grace and hope to incarcerated individuals, reminding them of their inherent dignity and the possibility of transformation. A Beacon of Light Jehovah Saints Global Outreach Headquarters, situated at 205 W Business US Highway 60, PMB 303, Dexter, MO 63841, serves as a central hub for these impactful endeavors. From this strategic location, the light of faith radiates outward, touching lives across continents and cultures. The legacy of Josphat Isoe and the congregation echoes through the corridors of eternity, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of those they serve. May this appointment be a beacon of hope, illuminating the path toward spiritual growth, community transformation, and unwavering devotion. 🌟🙌🏽 #Nairobi #Kenya #JehovahsHOUSEofSaints #spiritualjourney #hope #faith #purpose #gratitude #family #NyanzaProvince #EastAfrica #boldfaith #sacrifice #ministry #compassion #impact #communitytransformation #faithanddevotion #hopefulpath #globaloutreach #lightoffaith #beaconofhope #spiritualgrowth #inspiration #blessings #divineopportunities #homebase #profoundgratitude

Nevada, USA – In the heart of the Silver State, a pressing issue casts a shadow over the bustling cities and serene landscapes: homelessness. With over 6,000 individuals facing life without a permanent shelter, the call for community support has never been more urgent. The plight of the homeless in Nevada is not just a statistic; it’s a reflection of the struggles faced by real people every day. The Bible speaks to the heart of this matter, reminding us that compassion and justice for the poor are virtues of the righteous: Proverbs 29:7: “The righteous care about justice for the poor, but the wicked have no such concern.” Proverbs 21:13: “Whoever shuts their ears to the cry of the poor will also cry out and not be answered.” Proverbs 22:9: “The generous will themselves be blessed, for they share their food with the poor.” Luke 11:41: “But now as for what is inside you—be generous to the poor, and everything will be clean for you.” James 2:15: “If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, ‘Go in peace, be warmed and filled,’ without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that?” In response to this humanitarian crisis, Jehovah’s HOUSE of Saints Programs has stepped forward with initiatives rooted in compassion and service: Homeless Shelter Program: Offering a haven and support to those in dire need. Bible Classes in Schools Initiative: Fostering spiritual education within academic settings. Pro-Life Campaign: Upholding the sanctity of life at all stages. Prison Ministry: Providing spiritual guidance to those behind bars. Michael Hopkins, a voice for the voiceless, poignantly reminds us, “Before you ignore another homeless person on the street, just remember that that could be your child. Yes, one day you may be in Heaven looking down upon your children, and they are children of God too.” The Jehovah Saints Global Outreach Headquarters, located at 205 W Business US Highway 60, PMB 303, Dexter, MO 63841, stands as a beacon of hope. With the contact number +1-573-891-1933, they invite you to join their mission in spreading hope, compassion, and love across borders. Website: Jehovah Saints Global Outreach As we reflect on the teachings of the Bible and the efforts of organizations like Jehovah’s HOUSE of Saints Programs, let us come together to make a difference. Whether through donations, volunteering, or simply spreading the word, every action counts in the fight against homelessness. 🌎🙏🏽 This is a call to action for all within Nevada and beyond to lend their support to the homeless population. It is a reminder that generosity and compassion can bring about change and that together, we can work towards a future where everyone has a place to call home. #NevadaHomelessness #EndHomelessness #CommunitySupport #SilverState #HomelessOutreach #Compassion #JusticeForThePoor #BibleVerses #HomelessShelterProgram #SpiritualEducation #ProLifeCampaign #PrisonMinistry #VoiceForTheVoiceless #SpreadHope #GlobalOutreach #MakeADifference #DonateToday #VolunteerNow #SpreadTheWord #Generosity #CompassionCounts #HopeForAll #LendASupportingHand #HomelessnessAwareness #BuildingABetterFuture #TogetherWeCan #LoveThyNeighbor #FaithInAction #HomelessAdvocacy #HumanitarianCrisis #SupportTheCause #JoinTheMission #BibleTeachings #MakeAnImpact #EveryActionCounts #FutureWithHope

In a world where compassion and faith intersect, the plight of the homeless stands as a stark reminder of our shared humanity. As we strive to follow the teachings of the Bible, we find ourselves called to action—to care for the poor, to listen to their cries, and to extend a helping hand. In this article, we explore the urgent need for homeless shelters in India and the transformative impact they can have on the lives of those in need. The Call to Compassion: Biblical Wisdom on Caring for the Poor The Bible is replete with verses that emphasize our responsibility toward the less fortunate. Let us reflect on a few of these timeless truths: Proverbs 29:7: “The righteous care about justice for the poor, but the wicked have no such concern.” This verse underscores the moral imperative to advocate for justice and equality, especially for those who lack basic necessities. Proverbs 21:13: “Whoever shuts their ears to the cry of the poor will also cry out and not be answered.” Our response to the cries of the destitute echoes throughout eternity. Ignoring their pleas leaves our own hearts impoverished. Proverbs 22:9: “The generous will themselves be blessed, for they share their food with the poor.” Generosity is a two-way blessing. When we give, we receive—not just materially, but in the richness of our souls. Luke 11:41: “But now as for what is inside you—be generous to the poor, and everything will be clean for you.” True purity of heart lies in acts of kindness and compassion. When we care for the poor, our inner being is purified. James 2:15: “If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, ‘Go in peace, be warmed and filled,’ without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that?” Mere words are empty; action is the currency of love. The Homeless Crisis in India: A Call to Action India, a land of contrasts, grapples with the paradox of immense wealth juxtaposed with abject poverty. Amidst bustling cities and ancient temples, thousands of homeless individuals struggle to survive. The harsh reality is that many lack shelter, food, and hope. The New Delhi Tragedy: Recently, New Delhi witnessed the demolition of nine homeless shelters and several slum clusters. These actions were part of a beautification strategy ahead of the G20 leaders’ summit. Families lost their homes, and the riverside shelters that once provided solace were reduced to rubble. The Disheartening Reality: World leaders gather in India’s capital, yet the city’s homeless population feels like “flies in milk.” The timing of these demolitions—under the cover of darkness—raises questions about compassion and citizenship. How can we demolish shelters in the name of beautification? NGOs and Shelters: Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) like the Salam Baalak Trust (SBT) offer a lifeline to the homeless. They provide shelters, food, clothing, education, and health services. These sanctuaries become caring communities, offering hope to those who have no one else. The Homeless Shelter Program India: A Beacon of Hope In response to this crisis, the Homeless Shelter Program India was born. Here’s how it works: Shelter and Nourishment: We establish and operate shelters across the country. These safe havens provide more than just a roof—they offer nutritious meals, clean water, and a respite from the harsh streets. Holistic Support: Our shelters go beyond the basics. We provide job training, counseling, and medical assistance. We believe that empowerment is the key to breaking the cycle of homelessness. Permanent Housing Solutions: Our goal is not just temporary relief but lasting change. We assist individuals in finding permanent housing, helping them regain their dignity and rebuild their lives. Jehovah Saints Headquarters for India: A Beacon of Compassion At the helm of this mission stands Archbishop G. Elisha CHENNAIAH, a tireless advocate for the homeless. His address—Plat Number 32-280, Door Number 301-302, HAL Colony Road, Number 1, Gajularamaram Road, Medchal District, Hyderabad, Telangana, India, PIN code 500055—is a beacon of hope for those seeking refuge.

God Does Not Dwell in Temples Made by Hands The Bible tells us in Acts 7:48, “God does not dwell in temples made by hands.” This is further affirmed in 1 Corinthians 3:16, “You are the temple of God, and God dwells in you.” From these verses, we understand that God is not confined to buildings or churches. Instead, God dwells within us, making us the Church. God Speaks Through Us Did you know that you may have conversed with God at some point in your life? As stated in Matthew 10:20, “For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.” This suggests that God can communicate through us, making our interactions potentially divine. Moses: A Leader Who Felt Inadequate Moses, a great leader in the Bible, did not see himself as such. Contrary to his portrayal in biblical movies as a great speaker, Moses was slow of speech. Yet, God saw something in Moses that even he did not see in himself. Despite his self-perceived inadequacies, Moses brought forth the Ten Commandments, a feat we still talk about to this very day. In Exodus 4:10, Moses said to the Lord, “Oh, my Lord, I am not eloquent…but I am slow of speech and of tongue.” Despite his reluctance, God used Moses in extraordinary ways. In Exodus 7:2, God said, “Your brother Aaron shall speak to Pharaoh,” allowing Moses to lead through Aaron speaking for him. God Sees Your Potential Like Moses, you may feel unqualified for your dreams, visions, or ideas. However, God sees something in you that you may not see in yourself. God would not have given you that dream or vision if you were not qualified. As stated in 1 Samuel 16:7, “The Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.” Prayer: A Secret Conversation with God Matthew 6:6 encourages us to pray in secret, promising that our Father who sees in secret will reward us. Mark 11:24 further assures us that whatever we ask in prayer, if we believe that we have received it, it will be ours. You Are Created for a Purpose You may think of yourself as a nobody, but God created you for a purpose. Your financial status does not define your worth to God or to others. Everyone has valuable information to share, and we can learn a lot from each other. Applying what we learn from others to our daily lives can lead to personal growth and development. God Is On Your Side Jeremiah 33:3 promises that God will show you things you never thought of. As stated in 1 Corinthians 3:16, I am the Church where God dwells, and so are you. God did not create us and then forget about us. When you feel it in your heart, that thought comes from the heart to mind, indicating that God is working on you. The Connection Between the Soul and the Heart Your soul is connected to your heart, specifically in an area called the Sinus Node. The sinus node sends out electrical impulses throughout the body. Your soul holds information that sometimes your mind does not even know. Some call this the subconscious mind, but in reality, it is your soul. The soul sends messages through the heart to the brain. Conclusion Just as God used individuals like Jesus, Abraham, David, Solomon, Daniel, Samson, Elijah, Moses, and Elisha, He can use you too. Remember, you are the Church where God dwells. Embrace this truth and live in the confidence that God is always with you.

Introduction The question of whether salvation is permanent has been a topic of theological debate for centuries. The phrase “once saved, always saved” suggests that once a person accepts Jesus into their heart, their salvation is secure. However, this assertion is not without controversy. In this article, we will delve into the origins of this concept, examine relevant Bible verses, and explore the nature of salvation. The Origin of “Once Saved, Always Saved” While the exact phrase “once saved, always saved” does not appear in Scripture, its roots can be traced back to early Christian theologians. Augustine, who influenced Calvinist doctrine, played a role in shaping this idea. Calvinism’s doctrine of unconditional election contributed to the belief that salvation is irrevocable. However, this perspective is not universally accepted among Christians. Bible Verses on Salvation Let’s explore key Bible verses related to salvation: John 10:27-30: Jesus declares, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Jehovah’s hand. I and Jehovah are one.” This just means the Father and Son work together as one. As stated in the Word, when a man and woman marry, the two become "one" flesh. This just means the two work together as "one", as the Father and Son do also. This passage emphasizes the security of believers in Christ. Once saved, they remain in His protective care. Ephesians 1:13: Paul writes, “And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit.” Here, believers are sealed by the Holy Spirit upon accepting Christ. This seal signifies their eternal relationship with God. Can Salvation Be Lost? Despite these assurances, other passages hint at the possibility of losing salvation: Hebrews 6:4-6: “For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance.” This passage suggests that some who have experienced God’s grace can fall away irreversibly. 2 Peter 2:4: “For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to chains of gloomy darkness to be kept until the judgment.” Angels, once in Jehovah’s presence, sinned and were cast out. If angels can fall, humans also can lose their salvation. Conclusion: A Balanced View In conclusion, the concept of “once saved, always saved” is complex. While assurance of salvation exists, we must also recognize the need for ongoing faithfulness. Salvation is not a license for complacency; it requires a continual relationship with Christ. As we navigate this theological terrain, let us seek wisdom, study Scripture, and hold fast to our faith. Remember, the journey of faith involves both Jehovah's grace and our response. Let us strive to remain faithful. #salvation #faith #Christianity #Bible #once #Jesus #grace #eternallife #Hebrews #Ephesians #John #Christ #HolySpirit #theology #doctrine #securityinChrist #belief #scripture #relationshipwithGod #Calvinism #Augustine #theologians #irrevocable #possibilityofloss #repentance #angels #faithfulness #complacency #wisdom #study #journeyoffaith #Godsgrace #response #faithful #theologicalterrain
