1 John 1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched-this we proclaim concerning the Word of life.

OR… are you celebrating a dark celebration today? Every day?! REFUSE TO BE UGLY… I CHOOSE THIS AS ONE OF MY THEMES IN LIFE and strive to impress this theme on my entire household… I refuse to be ugly! You should too!

AND, YOU DON’T KNOW IF THEY ARE WITH THE LORD? HERE’S WHAT I DO… If you remember, I have a son in Heaven and a sister. Absolutely I know they are with God and I will see them eventually.

FOR THOSE OF YOU who smirk and sneer when asked: “Do you know God?” (And: that is only the God of the Bible.) I say to you: “Not yet, you say?! You will!” THE HORRORS OF HELL ARE REAL: (you are on notice!) Proverbs 15:9-11 The Lord detests the way of the wicked, but he loves those who pursue righteousness. Stern discipline awaits anyone who leaves the path; the one who hates correction will die. Death…..
GOD WROTE THE BIBLE… 1 Thessalonians 2:13 And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is at work in you who believe. 2 Peter 1:20-21 Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation of things.
