The indwelling Spirit of God works in us in pray to cry out “Abba,” “Father, Daddy.” He helps us to endure sufferings so that we may patiently look forward to the final redemption of our bodies when we will see Jesus “with glory that is burst upon us” at His coming.
We are commanded in the Scriptures to “pray continually” (1 Thess. 5:17). When we pray we are petitioning the sovereign Creator of the universe and speaking to Him personally as we present our adoration, confessions, thanksgivings, and supplications to Him. He patiently listens to us and responds to us consistently out of His infinite wisdom.

True Christianity “sets its affection on things which are above, not on things which are on the earth.”
True Christianity is filled with hope. The second coming is “our blessed hope” (Titus 2:13), and “the hope of glory” (Col. 1:27). It is a “sure and certain hope” because of its specific content concerns the return of Jesus Christ.

Life is full of pain, suffering and death. Each of us has our share of heartaches and hurts. Sometimes we groan under the load of suffering. In my daily ministry I see hundreds of poor people facing pain, poverty and suffering in Latin America.
The word for groaning is found only six times in the New Testament. In Romans 8:22, 23, 26 the word stenazo and its variants refer to three different things: creation groans (vv. 18-22), believers groan (vv. 23-25), and the Holy Spirit groans (vv. 25-30).

Tongues, prophesy, knowledge, absolute faith, philanthropy, martyrdom without God’s love in Christ results in nothing—absolute zero.
Go back and read again the greatest essay ever written on love. First Corinthians 13 always reminds me of the highest priority in the Christian’s life. “But now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love” (v. 13).
Why is this chapter so important for the growing Christian? It is an awesome portrait of Jesus Christ. Read through this chapter again substituting the name Jesus Christ in place of the word “love” or “charity.” It is marvelous portrait of Christ who models for us perfect love.

Why is anger considered bad? Everybody must have wondered about this at one time or another.
So, what are the reasons?
- Anger causes loss of self-control; actions done in anger may be regretted deeply once the angry phase has ended.
- It causes us to breathe faster - thus shortening our lifespan… as the lifespan granted to us for this lifetime during our last Day of Reckoning in the Court is measured in the number of times we breathe (and not in years or days).
- It causes heat generation in the body (along with faster breathing) - frequent anger can be linked to certain ailments like hypertension and heart disease…
So, how to decrease one’s anger?
- The best way is meditation… done in the proper way…
- One of the main sources of anger is lust and the non-fulfillment of this desire… if one can get contended on this front, anger will automatically decrease…
- Eating proper foods… not eating stale and non-veg food is a no-brainer… but even some types of vegetarian foods are considered “hot”… However, one should not worry too much about this provided one eats vegetarian food… keeping moderation in mind while eating the “hot” foods…
- Company of “cool” and like-minded spiritual people… spiritual talk/discussion.

Our hope as Christians is our future glory. We will have a new body patterned after the glorified body of Jesus Christ (Phil. 3:21). Our “hope of glory” is guaranteed by the present dwelling of Christ within the believer (Col. 1:27).
At the parousia, the second coming of Christ, those who died in Christ and the living believers will be given the final and full “redemption of our body” (Romans 8:23). That body will be prepared for and suited to the final state of the Christian believer (1 Cor. 15:23, 26, 54). “When Christ, who is our life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory” (Colossians 3:4).

The witness of the Holy Spirit gives evidence that if we are God’s “children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him in order that we may also be glorified with Him” (Romans 8:17).
The blessings of this great inheritance are reserved for us in heaven. It is being prepared for us now in heaven (John 14:1-3). It is a special place in the presence of God. There we will no longer be in a spiritual warfare with sin and the devil. We will be in the likeness of Jesus (1 John 3:1-3).

The King of kings was on a cross.
Let that statement sink in. The King of kings was hanging on a cross.
The troubling question for the Roman governor Pilate was, “Are You the King of the Jews?” (Matthew 27:11).
Pilate wanted to be neutral before the king. People want to be neutral today, but Jesus Christ does not give us that freedom of choice. To be “neutral” is to automatically decide to crucify Jesus.

Our possession of the Holy Spirit is the very essence of what it means to be a Christian. “If anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ” (Romans 8:9). Those who belong to Christ have the Holy Spirit living within them. Moreover, if you have Him indwelling you, you will live like Him (vv. 10-13).
We know that we are true Christians because of the Holy Spirit’s presence in us, and because our lives have been changed by His indwelling presence.

It seems in God’s will that in approximately 150-300 years from today, there will be a holy place located in ……….., that will be famous all over the world - there will be long waiting lists to visit this holy place…
That’s all that can be written openly here for now…
