June 27^th 2010 Sunday Message Summary

Scripture: John 14:6

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

You cannot see the Lord in reality because he is in the spiritual world.  But the Lord sees us and knows us.  The more faith that you have in the Lord’s words, the more you will entrust your life to him and the more you will ask him for help when you need it.

Do you know what the Lord’s power and authority is?  The Lord’s power and authority is love; nothing else, only love. The essence of faith is love and salvation.  The essence is truth and grace.  Depending on how close you are united with the Lord, if you live only focused on the visible world, you become distant from the invisible world.

Are you seeking the path of true life in which you will prosper in this earth?  Or are you also seeking the way for your spirit to gain eternal salvation?  Which path are you seeking right now?  Today the Lord says, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.”

The Lord’s words are true, genuine, and eternal.  If you believe in the Lord’s words, then act according to your faith, then he will be with you and you will prosper.  Since the Lord has brought us here, he will teach us and guide each and every one of our lives.  The reason why the Lord calls us to this history is so that he can fulfill his Will that must happen in this time period.  The Will is for the Lord to ultimately take us to heaven.

Listen to the word and learn so that you may stand and act upright and live according to the truth.  The Lord is the way, the truth, and the life, so if you live according to the Lord, you will succeed.  Heaven is the kingdom where God dwells.  So only those who live and obey God can go to heaven.  It is not a place that was made by idols or philosophers.  It is a place you can go to only if you know the Lord.  If we proclaim that we love the Lord and we know him, then we must apply our lives accordingly to the Lord’s Will.

Do not be deceived in your path of life to take the wrong path.  You will suffer for 100 years in the physical world, but you will also suffer for eternity in the domain of death.  The Lord tells us to always ask him with everything that we want to know.  He is not a dead God.  He will lead us and guide us and give us what we ask for.  When you reflect upon your past, you will see that he was always there.

No matter how much the creator helps you and loves you, you yourself need to value your life.  Manage your life and take care of it, then you can live properly.  The Lord helps us, but we must also do our responsibilities and take care of our own lives.

A young child needs full care from their parents and siblings, but as they grow and mature, they must take care of themselves.  In this way, we must take care of our own responsibilities. When it comes to caring and management, you need to take care of yourself while the Lord protects you too.  Help each other and take care of each other too.

Make time and actively take care of your physical life and spiritual life.  Then your physical body will live to its lifespan and your spirit will live well in eternity.

Do not think that it is God’s work and Will for you to be sick and diseased.  The Lord and God’s heart is that of giving us peace and for us to live.  Do not think that God is judging you.  But if you live apart from God’s law, your body will receive suffering as a result of sin.  If you don’t repent of your sin, satan and evil spirits will torment you too.  If you live righteously, and you receive suffering, do not think that God is judging you.

The Lord teaches us his Will so that we can realize and repent of our sins.  This is why the Lord teaches us and shows us the way.  The reason why the Lord does all of this for us is because he loves us so much.

The body lives by eating, but the mind and spirit lives by listening to the word of God.  This is why it is so important to hear the word.  The word is a nourishment to your spirit.

In this world, we think that righteousness is simply an act of kindness.  But righteousness and goodness is what allows us to go to heaven.  Righteousness is more than just ethics.  It is the ticket that allows us to go to the kingdom of God.  It is with righteousness and goodness that you change your body and change your spirit to shine as the spirit of heaven.  Believing in the Lord is righteousness and hearing the word and putting it into practice is goodness.

If we stop in the midpoint of life, then our lives are done.  Those who take action and walk with the Lord are people with living faith.  Those who are unable to save their own spirits in this world, are people whose spirits are eternally unfortunate.

Overcome the temptations of the world and understand how to make correct judgments.  If you do not stand perfectly before the Lord, you will gradually lean towards death.  The world is a place for the physical body where you stop momentarily to go to heaven.  This is a momentary stop in order for us to go to heaven.  Those who live this short period of time only for the body, are people who force their spirits to live in death for eternity.

Think about it. You have a physical body, and you have a heart, mind, and soul. Simply put, there is a body and there is a heart. When your heart goes through pain, the body also suffers, and when the body gets hurt or is in pain due to an illness, the heart and the mind also receive that suffering. In the same way, whoever you are, if your spirit and body do not believe in Jesus, who is the savior, while you live on earth; and if you do not love and serve the Father who is the Almighty Being who created you; and if your spirit goes to hell as a result of disobeying His words and not doing righteous deeds, the heart, mind, and soul that once belonged to your body become one with your spirit and go to hell and receive suffering of Hell together with the spirit. Since your heart, mind, and soul unite with the spirit, it feels as if the body became one with the spirit and went to Hell. The body is composed of matter, so when it dies, it is either buried in the ground or cremated, and that is the end for the body.  However, your heart will become one with your spirit and live in pain on behalf of your body.

Just as people of the world also live raising their level as they age and mature in their minds and thoughts, you should hurry, develop and mature your mind and spirit, and become the Lord’s hands and feet, so that they can share love and fulfill together the Will which Jesus plans to execute through each of you according to your individual qualities.

If the Lord calls us, we cannot hear, but if we call the Lord, he can hear everything we say.  Know that the Lord grants our requests according to his Will.  Believe and take action.
