(2Peter 1 : 20-21)

RECEIVE GOSPEL ONLY FROM THE APOSTOLIC MAJESTY


‘Fourteen years later I went back to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along with me. I went because GOD REVEALED TO ME THAT I SHOULD GO. In a private meeting with the leaders I explained the gospel message that I preach to the gentiles. I didn’t want my work in the past or in the present to be a FAILURE”.
(Galatians 2:1-2)

"Every one must obey the state authorities, because no authority exists without God's permission and the existing authorities have been put there by God. Whoever opposes the existing authority opposes what God has ordered and anyone who does so will Bring JUDGEMENT ON HIMSELF". (Romans 13:1-2)

THE ONE GOSPEL

“Even if we or an angel from heaven should proclaim to you a gospel contrary to what we proclaimed to you, let that one be accursed”.
(Galatians 1:8)

(Wisdom of Solomon 3:11-13)

WHAT IS LOVE ?

“God is love, and whoever lives in love lives in union with God and God lives in union with him”.

It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. LOVE NEVER ENDS”.
(I Corinthians 13:4-8)

“There is no fear in love; perfect love drives out all fear”. So then, love has not been made perfect in any one who is AFRAID”.
( I John 4 : 18 )


“God didn't give us a spirit of cowardice, but rather a spirit of power and of love and of self discipline”.
(2 Timothy 1:7)

UNLESS HE IS BORN OF WATER & THE SPIRIT

SEXUAL IMMORALITY
