COURSE: THE SINCERE MILK OF THE WORD
PROGRAM OF STUDY: DOCTORATE
CHAPTER OF REFLECTION: CHAPTER 1
THE GOSPEL SUMMARIRED
The author in the beginning of this book reveals that the essence of the Gospel is to increase faith which will gear towards attaining ‘ perfection’ The true connection of the truth of the scriptures result in salvation which links up to perfection.
For one to be a teacher of thin, to other, he must first be a partaker of salvation through the whole truth of the Gospel followed by an understanding love.
salvivic doctrines of our dispensation are essential know, understand and observer, if an individual to expect the experience the same cause and effect said salvivic truths promise.
The book encourages, “study to show yourself approved” because a strong foundation (built on solid “rock”-Matthew 7:24-27) and deep continued healthy development, a fruitful life, eternal longevity and the ability to withstand and overcome the “of life, thorns of persecution and temptation.
Here also foundational doctrines that lead to salvation and perfection are
Outlined as :
Repentance from dead words
Faith towards YHVH (Jehovah)
Doctrine of baptisms.
Lying on of hands.
Resurrection of the dead
Eternal judgment
The later part of the chapter reveals the Gospel subsystem of the foundation doctrines with both corresponding Gospel application component and corresponding Hebrew six component. The gospel subsystem from I Corinthians 15:1-8 include death, burial, resurrection, 40 days of undefilement (speaking of things pertaining to the kingdom) and Ascension.
The essence of the Gospel in final case is a message of Good news- a Gospel of Hope as it relates to enjoying the Messianic Covenant.
RESPONSE TO CHAPTER ONE
Chapter one tries to summaries the fundamental doctrines of the Gospel which every true believer should adhere to and which every genuine preacher is obliged to vividly inform the body of Christ.
I personally believe in all its ramifications, the efficacy of the fundamental tenets of the Gospel without which the Hope of a Christian’s successful pilgrimage remains questionable, unguaranteed and unattainable.
Of Course the whole Hope of a Christian is the Hope of resurrection otherwise it should be forgotten about. But the first step of becoming a Christian – repentance must be reached before that hope begins to come.

CHAPTER OF REFLECTION: CHAPTER 2
REPENTANCE FROM DEATH WORKS
(FOR THE SINNER)
PART ONE
In part one of this chapter, the author derives the basis for this Christian teaching in the history of humanity’s early existence. He puts in efforts to arrive at the Biblical records beginning. Historical narratives have revealed the creation of the ancestors, until when Adam fell as the first man created by God. But he does not usually acknowledge the writer of the Pentateuch, except the Book of Deuteronomy as written by Moses.
Since Adam Fell by disobedience with his wife Eve all his descendants until today have inherited this “Adam nature”. This new nature (sinful-nature) man leads to lawless (works of the flesh or sinful) actions which in turn leads to guilt, “sickness” and eternal death.
It is hereby revealed that 80% of the patients visiting hospitals and doctors’ offices have no physiological (i.e biological basis) reason to be “sick”. They (patients) have symptoms of a “soulish” (psychological, known as psychosomatic or psycho physiological) nature rather than from pure organ origins. For this reason James said, “And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well ……”. James 5:15-16 (NIV).
This part talks more about repentance from dead works, repentance as occurring sixty-four (64) times in the New Testament and forty-five (45) times in the Old Testament; background of repentance and what it accomplishes. It further explains how repentance fits into the salvation plan. Acts 2:37-38; 1Peter 2:21; 2 Corinthians 4:3.
On the general review, it touches on water baptism and spirit baptism.
RESPONSE TO PART ONE
The truth about salvation is personalized in repentance of which a sinner confesses his since and then is forgiven by God-Salvation. The comments here are true because the efficacy of prayer of faith being expressed is genuine in all cases.
Many at times from experiences and testimonies, when one repents of his sins and is forgiven, the sickness also goes.
PART TWO
REPENTANCE FROM DEATH WORKS
(FOR THE SAINT)
Part two confirms here that saints also make mistakes or are faulty which all require repentance. The Bible in James instructs the saints to confess their faults “confess” your faults one to another ……”. James 5:16.
This part succinctly warns that in order to avoid the position of self-righteousness and hypocrisy, a saints even needs to repent before the Lord and even confess faults to a fellow saint he has offended. For this reason Christ will tell the self-righteous, “I never knew you. Away from me, you that work iniquity” Matthew 7:23.
One the final analysis the author enjoins men and women every where to REPENT from “dead works”, submit to YHVH (God) (as continuously used in this book) and never loose their faith. It is advised to follow Abraham’s example (Romans 4:20-24). it can and MUST be done this way.
RESPONSE TO PART TWO
This is a genuine work in this part and must be follow tenaciously. A sinner has the right to repent and the saint has the right to repent. To the saint, it is a water of cleansing from daily encumbrances with the world.
You will discover sometimes unknowingly and inadvertently, someone reacts negatively in response to your activities which means you have offended him (it may be serious anyway). This in turn affects your God and He is not happy if actually you are at fault.
Then there is no way to escape this than repenting – apologizing. This has the soothing power of quelling the situational anger.
ASSIGNMENT: REFLECTION
TOPIC: FAITH TOWARDS YHVH
(THAT HE IS)
FACILITATOR: REV. DR. USUKUMA J. UDOM
STUDENT: REV. UNYIME .J. OBONUKUT
COURSE: THE SINCERE MILK OF THE WORD
PROGRAM OF STUDY: DOCTORATE
CHAPTER OF REFLECTION: CHAPTER THREE
FAITH TOWARDS YHVH
(THAT HE IS)
PART ONE
This part reveals that the belief that YHVH unfolds the mysteries of the Word is phenomenological. People cannot have faith towards YHVH if they do not believe that “he is” or know who he is, His essence, His existence or His intended relationship with man and the universe. “But without faith it is impossible to please him:…..” Hebrews 11:6; Romans 1:20.
It takes faith to believe the logic, “in the beginning was the word, and the word was with YHVH, and the word was YHVH…..“. John 1:1, 14 (Holy Name Bible).
The Greek meaning for “Word” above is Logos which refers to the spoken word. YHVH’s spoken word is both creative and prophetic. 2Cointhians 5:19; Colossians 2:19. So all of God is in Christ. Colossians 1:19.
The part continues to tell who YHVH really is and how many YHVH or LORD’s there are Deuteronomy 6:4. It also shows that YHVH is a spirit 1Kings 8:27; John 4:23-24. This portion show Yeshua (Jesus) Christ regarding His deity, Matthew 1:21-23; John 1:1, 14; 1Timothy 3:16; Colossians 1:15. It proves here that Jesus is the only YHVH and LORD. John 20:28; 1John 5:20-21; Colossian 2:8-10.
RESPONSE TO PART ONE
The Word of God explained here is true and worthy of acceptance. Jesus is God and has the power to forgive sins. Therefore believing in Him and confessing one’s sins, he will be forgiven.
Believing Him will bring redemption, protection, deliverance and help.
PART TWO
FAITH TOWARDS YHVH
(THAT HE IS A REWARDER)
In part two the author tries to expatiate on the basics of faith. Hebrews 1:1 reveals faith as something hoped for and being certain of things not seen.
Salvation is by grace through faith, Ephesians 2:8-9. Abraham was justified by works. If a man works, his wages are not created to him as gift, but an obligation. Romans 4:2, 4.
Yeshua (Jesus) (as used in this book) said, “Whoever, believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be damned” Mark 16:16. James said, “Faith without works is dead”. James 2:19, 26.
One can see that faith (trust) played an active role in the relationship between YHVH and Abraham. No wonder Abraham was called the “father of the faithful”.
Again, it is written, “---- ye have not because ye ask not”. James 4:2. Therefore every faith will be rewarded by YHVH.
RESPONSE TO PART TWO
This has become a very vital part of the Gospel of Yeshua Christ. Without the application of faith, every worship is like a tinkling cymbal without effect.
Then the resultant effect will be unnoticeable since no one was addressed. As the worship went forth towards a vague entity, likewise the corresponding response brings a vague package.
A case study of the Israelites can be forwarded here. When they call by faith on a living God – the God of their father, they conquer – reward, but immediately faith went away and they become empty, the enemy will capture them. So God give us faith and increase it, in Jesus name. Amen.
ASSIGNMENT: REFLECTION
TOPIC: DOCTRINE OF BAPTISMS
(BAPTISM IN WATER)
PART ONE
FACILITATOR: REV. DR. USUKUMA J. UDOM
STUDENT: REV. UNYIME .J. OBONUKUT
COURSE: THE SINCERE MILK OF THE WORD
PROGRAM OF STUDY: DOCTORATE
CHAPTER OF REFLECTION: CHAPTER 4
DOCTRINE OF BAPTISMS
(BAPTISM IN WATER)
PART ONE
This chapter tries to clarify the scriptural importance of water baptism. The word baptism is taken from the Greek word baptizo which means to dip or to immerse. Baptizo is derived from the Greek word bapto, to moisten or stain. Baptisma and baptismos (a form of washing) are derived from baptize. It can clearly seen, therefore, that N.T. baptism by complete immersion in water is derived from the washing ceremonies of the Old Testament.
This is important to understand because the essence and meaning of the word implies more than “dipping”, “sprinkling”, or “pouring”. The devil will like to deceive people into thinking that baptism is unnecessary and has nothing to do with salvation. This is falsehood.
One the background narration, the author mentions that there are three major typologies of water baptism in the Old Testament specifically mention by the Apostles even through some theologians believe many more exist. They are Noah and the flood, (2) Israelite passing through the red sea and (3) Circumcision. New covenant baptisms, however, never occurred until the times of Christ at the end of the Law dispensation”. 1Peter 3:20-21.
This chapter arrives at the fact that baptism is a physical memorial representing freedom from an individual’s past sins. It comes by faith in YHVH’s ability to deliver (save). It also comments that if one does not come in contact with and experience the remitting power of Yeshua Christ’s (Jesus Christ’s) shed blood, then he cannot be saved.
This portion finally reviews repentance, water baptism and spirit baptism in general. The trust fact here remains that uncleanness and sin will not enter – into eternal salvation 1Corinthians 6:9-11.
RESPONSE TO PART ONE OF CHAPTER 4
The issue relating to baptism and God’s plan of salvation remains undaunted and indisputable. As the author has tried to bring forth the derivation of the word baptism and the salvational implications with corresponding Biblical quotation, it is word of believing.
I believe too that it is very important that one be genuinely born again before attaining to the ordinance of water baptism so that he will not go into water (by immersion) a dry sinner and come out a wet sinner (continuing in sin).
This will be possible because the sin tendencies in human nature were not initially dealt with – overcome by salvational power or a born again experience.
PART TWO
DOCTRINE OF BAPTISMS
(BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT)
Part two of chapter four explains the topic from Jesus’ statement, “If I go not away the comforter cannot come”. This was paramount that Christ would die, be buried, rise again, walk upon the earth forty more days and them ascend on high. All this to accomplish redemption, so that Christ could seal believers the “seal of the promise”. (Ephesians 1:13), which is “Christ in you the hope of Glory”, (Colossians 1:27), which is the circumcision of the heart.
The outpouring of the Holy Ghost never occurred until fifty (50) days after the resurrection of Yeshua Christ. It happened on a holy day – Feast of Pentecost. This portion explains the typological background of the holy Hhost baptism. He further explain it that the first time YHVH breathed into Adam the “breath” of life (Neshemah) he became a living soul (Nephesh) (Briggs, 2007).
This breath of wind of YHVH is the same as was discussed by Christ and his disciples. He “breathed on them” and said receive ye the Holy Ghost (Pneuma). The New Testament identities the Holy Ghost as the SEAL (2 Corinthians 1:22; Ephesians 1:13; 4:30). The Holy Ghost is used by God to seal His people with HOPE for a grand final – the culmination of all things (Jude 1:24; Ephesians 5:26-27; Colossians 1:22, 28; etc).
The author also expatiates the work of the Holy Spirit in speaking in tongues. He the narrates the purposes of speaking in tongues which include:
The initial proof of YHVH sealing a believer (either Jew or Gentile).
External and internal edification, i.e, intercessory prayer for others and/or self-edification during solitudinal prayer/worship to YHVH.
Usage when operating any of the nice gift of the spirit to edify the “body of Christ. He reviews more on repentance, water baptism and spirit baptism”.
RESPONSE TO PART TWO OF FOUR
The account recorded so far has gone a long way to exposing more truth towards the said topic than I had earlier learnt.
I still fin more truth as I research into the discussion. The most touching of all is the fact that a SEAL must be placed on a believer as in Jeremiah’s prophecy (Jeremiah 31:31-34 etc), a teacher and guide (1 Corinthians 2:10-16) leading receivers onward to perfection (power to overcome) and changing mortal bodies to immortal bodies (Romans 8:11; 1 Corinthians 15:51-57).
PART THREE
DOCTRINE OF BAPTISMS
(BAPTISM OF SUFFERING)
This part brings in a very rare subject initiated in the New Testament by Yeshua Christ. But when this doctrine is grasped it opens a new perspective of Christianity. It declares that this “suffering” in this context has nothing to do with chastisement YHVH because of sin.
The baptism of suffering has everything to do with a believer’s identity with Yeshua Christ and acts as a catalyst for Christian growth and spiritual fruit bearing. Christ said, “But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished”. Luke 12:50.
Jesus talked about this baptism, Matthew 20:22-23. About this suffering Paul spoke in 2 Timothy 3:12. More about this suffering in 1 Peter 4:1-2, 13-16 Acts 4:17-31; John 15:18-21; 11 Thessalonians 1:4-5.
The portion also discusses wisdom in suffering and concluded that every believer must ask themselves, “Will I carry my Cross”.
RESPONSE TO PART THREE OF CHAPTER 4
The doctrine of suffering is Biblical but rare of hearing especially of modern pulpits. But in God’s own wisdom. He has been allowing genuine Christians to pass through one aspect of suffering or the other for the sake of Christ.
This is perfectly outside of the suffering due to sinful habits as mentioned before but out of Love. God’s LOVE allows this to come to Christians for the work of perfection.
Therefore when such comes, one should of God for a divine upkeep and upliftment.
PART 4 OF CHAPTER 4
DOCTRINE OF BAPTISMS
(BAPTISM OF THE WORD)
This part believes that when believers grasp the essence of this doctrine, a fresh desire for YHVH develops and new insight into the sacredness and the divine authenticity of YHVH’s word occurs.
The scriptures imply a baptism of the word by the phrase “washing of water by the word”. It confirms that in the Old Testament, water was used in the washing and/or cleansing ceremonies. It is therefore, implied that the word is a washing agent and is to be utilized by the New Testament believer.
For a garment to be washed clean, water is needed. This word of God which a Christian baths, studies, digests, prays upon and compares himself, mirrors himself and measures himself with. The word is efficacious enough to keep the believer clean until he meets his saviour.
For references, we use James 1:27; Revelation 3:4; 16:15; Ephesians 5:26; Romans 10:17; 1 Corinthians 1:29; John 6:63; 1 John 5:8; Matthew 4:4 etc.
RESPONSE TO PART 4 OF CHAPTER 4
It is indeed expedient that a believer grow wearing of imbibing the word of God. The word washes and cleanses the regeneration in a believer. as believer wades through the wilderness of this world, they gather dust and it is the word of God that wash them when the return to read, study and pray with it.
I pray God give Christians the grace to read and study the word of God for a clean and perfect appearance before God and man.
ASSIGNMENT: REFLECTION
TOPIC: (LAYING ON OF HANDS (PART ONE)
(FOR HEALING)
The laying on of hands as discussed here had its beginning in ancient times. Many religious and traditional customs still utilize the laying on of hands for a variety of reasons. The process of an individual reaching out to touch another on the top of the head is symbolic of transferring blessing, virtue or power to another e.g kingly inauguration, healing, birthrights, blessings, rituals of transferring sin onto a scapegoat, passage, etc.
The individual who performs the laying on of hands is usually an elder, priest/prophet, or powers that be.
In the New Testament, one of the first examples of healing by laying of hands occurs in Mark 5:23, “---My little daughter is dying, please come and PUT YOUR HANDS ON HER SO THAT SHE WILL BE HEALED AND LIVE….”.
Some other examples are in Luke 11:20; Matthew12:28; John 14:12; Mark 16:18; Matthew 9:20-22; Acts 19:12; James 5:14-15.
RESPONSE TO PART ONE OF CHAPTER FIVE
The doctrine of laying on of hands for healing is not man-made but divine and should be followed meticulously. This also shows the power of God in divine touch, and prayer becomes the catalyst that propels the effectiveness of the laying on of hands for healing.
But let us remember that faith is the principal thing here also. When you do it, note that you are commanded, then have that confidence of effective answer to this effect.
PART 2 OF CHAPTER 5
LAYING OF HANDS
(FOR SPIRITUAL INFILLING)
Part two of chapter five focuses on laying of hands for the purpose of transferring blessing and or power. In the Old Testament patriarchs utilized laying on of hands for passing on blessings, birthrights (leadership power nominally belonging to the Elder, i.e, first born) and unfavourable.
Examples of some patriarchs who utilized the right of laying on of hands were Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, and perhaps many others who may not have been mentioned in holy writ.
A discussed earlier, the infilling of the spirit is the earnest seal of YHVH’s promised eternal salvation upon an individual 2 Corinthians 1:22-23; Ephesians 1:13-14; 4:30.
It is God Himself who mandates a person, His representatives to lay hands on a believer for the infilling and many portions of the Bible talk about it. Some examples are: Romans 8:11; 1 Corinthians 15:51-57; Acts 8:17-19; Acts 19:1-6; 10:31-48; Isaiah 50:2; 59:1; Matthew 16:19; john 20:22-23.
RESPONSE TO PART 2 OF CHAPTER 5
The Word of God is quick and powerful than any two edged sword. What God has ordained, let no one disdain. Laying of hands for spiritual infilling is true and still efficacious. It is good to the practice and not abuses it.
PART THREE OF CHAPTER FIVE
LAYING OF HANDS
(FOR COMMISSION)
As recorded in this chapter, commissioning ceremonies are ancient and common throughout the thread of man’s history. It can be seen in ancient Bible history as well as in much later history. The commissioning ceremony is symbolic of passing one’s authority and blessing to another.
Commissioning is a Bible doctrine and is to be administered sacredly, judiciously, and cautiously. When a patriarch blessed his son, i.e, passed on the ancestral wealth, the patriarch commissioned his son to protect, lead propagate, advance and enlarge the ancestral legacy.
It is not generally a everyday affair but as occasion demands it. Biblical records reveal this facts and occasion Genesis 27:1-4 shows Isaac and his sons, Esau and Jacob. Other records of these ceremonies can be seen in 1 Chronicles 16:22; Genesis 48:1-22; Titus 1:5; 1Timothy 5:22; Romans 11:29; Hebrew 12:16-17; Genesis 22:11-12.
RESPONSE TO PART THREE OF FIVE
Yeshua’s commission can only be accomplished through the process of delegation. And delegates must be commissioned into their calling. So, commissioning must continue, but must be done discreetly, cautiously, judiciously, sacredly and permanently.

(FOR THE SINNER)

STUDENT: REV. UNYIME .J. OBONUKUT
COURSE: THE SINCERE MILK OF THE WORD
CHAPTER OF REFLECTION: CHAPTER 6
RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD (PART ONE)
(FOR THE SINNER)
The resurrection of the dead will not be a joyous occasion. Every sinner in hell hopes this will not happen. It will initiate the eternal tormentous damnation awaiting the wicked dead. This term “death” is used for the New Testament unbeliever instead of “sleep”.
This is because “death” usually reflects a spiritual state and the spiritually dead are eventually placed into the “second death”- the lake of fire. But those who are spiritually alive will live again or shall never die. They shall live eternally in heaven, John 5:28-29; Revelation 20:14-15; Ecclesiastes 11:3; Hebrews 9:27; Luke 16:19-31; 2 Corinthians 6:2; Revelation 20:11-15; 1Thessalonians 4:16-18; 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9.
RESPONSE TO PART ONE OF CHAPTER SIX
It is worthy of note and of proclamation so that the wicked and the unconcerned should hear. People play over many things and many things become archaic in people’s ears and mentality. But every living being MUST as a matter of necessity be aware of and prepare for the final of finals-the conclusion of the whole matter-when all is over. May God help us.
Preachers must be fully aware that people MUST repent and turn away from death work and live.
PART TWO OF CHAPTER SIX
THE RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD
(FOR THE SAINT)
This chapter confirms what the Bible has put up that there is the resurrection of the dead and further shows that it is not reincarnation-coming back to life in some other non-human form, e.g, plant life or animal life.
Paul wrote to the Corinthians and showed these different bodies 1Corinthians 15:35-50. Each creation has its own “body” and remains same until it dies or disintegrates.
Prior to Judeo-Christianity Jews were divined in their view concerning the resurrection of the dead. The Pharisees believed it but the Sadducees did not. But the Bible says that God is a God of the living and not the dead, Matthew 22:31-32; Luke 24:36-43; 1Corinthians 15:51-54; 1Thessalonians 4:13-15; 1Corinthians 15:51 etc.
The resurrection of the dead as it appertained to the saints are recorded all over the New Testament and it is true.
REFLECTION TO PART TWO OF CHAPTER SIX
The doctrine of resurrection of the dead especially of the saints is overwhelming for when one considers the rigours of preparation, warning to keep oneself unspotted and cleaned by the washing of body with the word, overcoming temptations and trials etc. Then the sudden hope of resurrection of the saints with a brilliant hope comfort, satisfaction and eternal bliss with Jesus dries our tears and raises our eyebrows towards it. God bless the saints.

TOPIC: ETERNAL JUDGMENT (PART ONE)
(FOR THE SINNER)
FACILITATOR: REV. DR. USUKUMA J. UDOM
STUDENT: REV. UNYIME .J. OBONUKUT
COURSE: THE SINCERE MILK OF THE WORD
CHAPTER OF REFLECTION: CHAPTER 7
ETERNAL JUDGMENT (PART ONE)
(FOR THE SINNER)
The writer comments that this chapter is the most paradoxical doctrines discussed in YHVH’s word. It can evoke ambivalent feelings due to the subject matter and nature of the doctrine.
Contrastingly enough, it is both sad and joyous. The saddening aspect of this doctrine will be discussed in this part and the joyous aspect in the next part.
In Paul’s opening remarks to the Thessalonians he mentioned the polarity of the subject of judgment-God’s recompense of tribulation to them that trouble the Christians and to the Christians REST, 2Thessalonians 1:6-9.
The troubled believer is encouraged to “rest”, be sate, and refreshed, because “the day of judgment” and wrath is coming upon the sinner. Revelation 6:9-10; Matthew 13:42.
The portion also reveals those to be judged and how. These shall be all sinners and in the flammy fire. 1Thessalonians 1:8; Matthew 18:19; Matthew 25:46; 2Thessalonians 1:9; Matthew 3:12, 10; 13:40-42; Mark 9:43-48; Revelation 20:13-14; 14:1-11; 20:10-15; 21:1, 27.
Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men……..”. 2Cointhians 5:11.
RESPONSE TO PART ONE OF CHAPTER SEVEN
It is indeed a fearful thing to fall into the hand of the living God. It is therefore not good to fall into God’s hands in anger. Let every one pray and deliver himself from this wicket and crooked generation for God will judge all evil works.
I therefore join with the author and the Apostle Paul to proclaim “knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men……”. Let every wicked man forsake his ways and repent for the judgment will be terrible. God help us.
PART TWO OF CHAPTER SEVEN
ETERNAL JUDGMENT
(FOR THE SAINT)
The author refers this chapter to a chapter of cerebration. Eternal judgment will be a Jubilee for all true and pure believers. This chapter is one of comfort and solace for those that may be in distress, tribulation or persecution. Believers are encouraged to hold the faith for in due season they shall reap if they faint not.
All shall be eternally judged, but the saints will mostly be focused here. 2Corinthians 5:10-11. “Well done, thou good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord”. Matthew 25:14-21.
More portions confirm the good and wonderful reward to the saints: 1Corinthians 3:14-15; Matthew 6:19-21, 12:36; 20:1-10; 2Corinthians 4:2; 1Timothy 5:17.
the author then deliberate where the eternal judgment will begin, that it will begin in the house of God, 1Peter 4:17 He gives the warning for one to be careful. 1Corinthians 3:13-15; Matthew 7:21-23.
RESPONSE TO PART TWO OF CHAPTER SEVEN
The whole duty of man is to fear God and keep His commandments. A believer should continue to be faithful over a few things and YHVH will make the faithful ruler over many things and joy will be theirs throughout eternity.
It is mandatory for every believer to keep in touch with the word of God and hopeful for the GREAT reward and they turn not back. God bless every believer and save sinner in Jesus name. Amen.
With this, the believers should work hard to help the entire world to repent for the fear of eternal issues. |
