THE UNITY WITH GOD

Welcome to this subject  which is  concerned of  being united with God and Jesus Christ. I taught union in this lesson which is  a result from a person who believes and  saved in Jesus and  also  decided to live according to God's word as is written. Such a person will be holy as God is holy. That is why Jesus said. "If anyone loves me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him" . John 14:23. "But he keeps his word, in him the love of God has truly been perfected . In this we know that we are in him" 1 John 2: 5. To those who are holy,  God has given them the right to be united with him. That is why it is written, "You are already clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. Remain in me, and I in you ..." . John 15: 3-4. We can learn from our  Lord Jesus Christ when  he asked God for those who believe that they may be united with Him and  Father. "He did ...

A TRUE FRIEND BETWEEN ONE ANOTHER.

In order to know who is a true friend with one another, it is important to look on what the God’s word says. God is a good friend. This is because he is a  Holy. First he loved us  when we were  not worthy  to be loved because of our sins.  He sent his begotten son Jesus Christ  to save us when we do not deserve to be loved.  Therefore we must live and love each other with real friendship between one another.   "For God loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son ...did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him ".   (John 3: 16,17). It is important to know: There are two kinds of friends. 1. A true friend in all time.
