God loves us with His hearts, soul, and mind

God loves us with His hearts, soul, and mind


Luke 19:10 for the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.

Hebrews 2:14-15 …He too shared in their humanity so that by his death…

To seek and save His lost children God gave up all power and glory in heaven. Humbling Himself, He came as a man, being made lower than the angels (Hebrews 2:5-9), and willingly endured all kinds of pain and suffering for us.

Matthew 22:34-38  Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’  
This is the first and greatest commandment.

How can we love God with all our heart?


How can we love God fully? It may seem a little vague to us, especially since we are weak sinners who may set our minds more towards worldly desires.
In the bible, there is a good example of a man whom God acknowledged as one who loved God with all his heart, soul, and mind. He is King Josiah. (2 Kings 23:25)

 When we keep the Passover just as king Josiah did, we can also receive the same testimony from God that we love God fully. We can see that the Passover and the first commandment have an inseparable relationship. (2 King 23:21-25)

 The first commandment among the Ten Commandments is as follows:

Exodus 20:3 … You shall have no other gods before me.

Exodus 12:12 … I will bring judgment on all the gods…

When we keep the Passover God destroys other gods. 

So we can easily distinguish the true God, (there must be true God only by the law of the powerful Passover) and thereby, come to serve only God and love Him fully.

2000 years ago, Jesus came as a Passover lamb and He showed the new covenant Passover through the bread and wine. But by the lawlessness, the Passover was abolished after that we got more other gods before us.
That means it is easy to serve the other gods, not the true God.

Now, we are keeping the Passover just as Jesus taught by the bread and wine on the same day and same time in WMSCOG. 

Because God came here to give us the Passover, the way to have eternal life and show us the power of letting any disaster to pass us over. We can also see the result after keeping the Passover the other gods will disappear from us. 

When we realize the sacrificial love of God, we can come to love Him with all our hearts.

Let’s keep this precious Passover to the last days as God’s wish.

    Many people do not understand the Bible correctly and regard the Passover as something that they don't need to celebrate, however, the Passover is a gift from God to give a salvation for us.

The Bride is the church, the saints in Rev 22:17?

The Bride is the church, the saints in Rev 22:17? Some people insist like this, "Rev 22:17 says, the bride is the church,  not Heavenly Mother."   Rev 22:17     The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let the one who hears say, "Come!" Let the one who is thirsty come, and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life. Can the Church can be the Savior who gives the water of life? Are there any pieces of evidence that the saints can give the water of life?  If then, show us, please.  Bible says the all authorities to give the water of life is only depends on ONLY God Almighty. Let's see if it's right in the bible. The age of Father Jer 2:13     They have forsaken me(Jehovah), the spring of living water ... The Age of Son John 4:14     whoever drinks   the water I (Jesus) give   them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life. The Age of t...

The Spirit and the Bride

Many people believe there is only one God—God the Father.  I think you might think in the same way. But this idea is not based on the Bible. The Bible testifies that there is... “Our Father in heaven” (Mt 6:9) , and also that “The Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother” (Gal 4:26). That is, there is our Mother as well as Father in heaven. The Church of God (World Mission Society Church of God, WMSCOG) believes in God the Father and God the Mother on the basis of the Bible.  Let me add some detail explanation about this: First , “Our Father in heaven” (Mt 6:9) implies us about the relationship between God and us.         - We are the children of God. Second , just as their is both father and mother who gave me birth, there has to be God the father and God the mother who gave us spiritual life.         - It is because earthly things are the copy and shadow of what is in heaven....

You are the Christ, the Son of the living God

 You are the Christ, the Son of the living God  (Mt 16:13-19) When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, "Who do people say the Son of Man is?" They replied, "Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets."   "But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?" Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven. And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven ; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." 2000 years ago, Jesus who is the savior in the age of son came to this earth to give us etern...
