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 Elohim Gods

There are many people, who insists to believe in GOD. However, most of them don't know much about the truth. In the book of the Hosea, it is written like this:  “…So let us know, let us press on to know the LORD . His going forth is as certain as the dawn; And He will come to us like the rain , Like the spring rain watering the earth.” Here God tells us that the knowledge of God is the condition of receiving the Holy Spirit of the latter rain. We should have correct knowledge of God, so that we may be fully armed with the Holy Spirit to fulfill the prophecy that the least of us will become a thousand, the smallest a mighty nation.

God the Mother, Life is inherited from Mother

  God eagerly wants human beings who are blinded by sin and wandering in darkness to find the way to eternal life. So, God has clearly shown them His eternal power and divine nature through all things He made, so that they can know Him. Ro 1:18~20 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. Every living organism created by God has a finite life span. Fully grown adult mayflies live for only one day. The average life span of dogs are 15 years. Elephants, the largest land animals in the world, live on average for 60 years. Sea turtles, which are well known for their exceptionally long life span, live appr

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.          (Heb 8:5) Third , that's why in
