Peace be with you all,
We hope this finds you well and in good spirit.
As Christians, you are very fortunate to understand the peace that comes through believing in God and His son—our Savior—Christ-Jesus.
You are also blessed to have God’s Word in the Holy Bible available to teach you how to do His Will in your everyday lives.
Sometimes, as Christians, it is easy to focus on the New Testament and forget that we should all be living (be living...believing) under God’s Laws, which are contained in the first five books of the Old Testament.
The shining example of this for all of us was Christ-Jesus, who told us all:-
”Think not that I am come to destroy The Law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.
For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no way pass from The Law, till all be fulfilled.”
- Matthew 5:17-5:18
We know all about the 10 Commandments that were given to Moses, but did you know about the rest of the Laws, Statutes and Judgments?
Did you know about the perfect healthy diet or the perfect agricultural and economic policy that God gave us?
They are all there for each of us to read for ourselves. You just have to make the time to do it.
Is there any better use of a Christian’s time than to learn how to do God’s Will (what He wants rather than what you want), as Christ commands in The Lord’s Prayer:-
After this manner therefore pray ye:
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name.Thy Kingdom come. Thy Will be done in earth, as [it is] in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.And forgive us our debts and trespasses (if we truly repent), as we forgive our debtors and those who trespass against us (if they truly repent).
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:
For Thine is The Kingdom,
and the power,
and the glory,for ever.
Amen.

We hope each of you finds these verses spiritually enlightening and may God be with you always.
