The Essential Truths Of The Holy Bible

GOD’S KINGDOM ON PLANET EARTH

2011-09-01T18:28:00.000+01:00

God’s Kingdom is a universal, perfect, righteous, and everlasting government of peace and happiness that the Almighty God, JEHOVAH promised to set up in this age of the end of the world through the prophecy of holy men of ancient times in the Holy Bible for the benefit of those who are His children. The children of God are known in the scriptures as the just, the meek, the righteous, the obedient children, the children of the kingdom and so on.

God’s Kingdom (Daniel 2:44) is also known in the Holy Bible as “Mountain” (Isaiah 2:2; Zech.8:3) “the desire of all nations” (Haggai 2:7), “Jerusalem or Jerusalem from above or New Jerusalem”, “the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 13) and so on.

The heavens and the planet earth made new will make up God’s Kingdom under the sovereignty of Jesus Christ and his Apostles numbering 144,000 chosen and anointed Christians that will dwell in heaven and the angels will serve as messengers. (Psalm 2:6-8; Luke 6:12, 13; 12:32; 22:28-29; John 14:1-3; Hebrews 1:7, 14; 12:22-24; Revelation 1:6; 5:10; 14:1-5 etc). It is for this reason that Jesus Christ the appointed King of the kingdom taught his followers to pray, to wit: “Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. – Matthew 6:9-10;

Since the fall and departure of Adam and Eve (at the instance of the Devil, the old Serpent) from their glorious stay in the Garden of Eden after they have eating of the forbidding fruit, the planet Earth and all in it including humans has become in nature inglorious, filthy and defiled. This is because of man’s disobedience to the established laws and will of God. Man’s insatiable lusts out of self-will and selfishness for wealth, power, food and shelter has resulted in continuous degradation of the earth through wars, famines, pestilences, earthquakes, pollutions, tilling of the soil, explorations, mining and other activities which has great devastated the earth and its environs as at today. Thus, the earth as it is now is not how God the Creator wish it should be. That is why He promised to make the earth glorious and make it new.

This promise to make the planet earth new is of tremendous importance or significance to all peoples or nations of the world that hear or read of God’s intention. The earth will be made paradise. In other words, the planet earth and its content will be made absolutely beautiful where there will be peace and tranquility, happiness and joy unlimited without end. However, religious misleaders and false ministers of God have turned the people’s hearts, thoughts and hope to heaven without regards for the truth as stated in the Holy Bible. The Psalmist wrote, “Ye are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth. The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord's: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.” (Psalm 115:15-16; see also Isaiah 66:1). Then King Solomon stated, “One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever.” – Eccl.1:4

Isaiah, the prophet said that God has promised to make the earth glorious like Lebanon. Note that Lebanon of today is not as beautiful as it was in the olden days. It is written: “For the nation and kingdom that will not serve Thee (God and Jesus Christ) shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted. The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee (the Saints or Apostles of God), the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.” (Isa.60:12, 13). Isaiah also stated that God has promised to make man’s flesh more precious than fine gold that it will be like the “golden wedge of Ophir”. (Isa.13:12) Then, Ezekiel the prophet of God was inspired to write that the planet earth (expanse) will be made as beautiful as the Garden of Eden. He wrote concerning God’s people, thus: “Thus saith the Lord GOD; in the day that I shall have cleansed you from all your iniquities I will also cause you to dwell in the cities, and the wastes shall be builded. And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the sight of all that passed by. And they shall say, this land that was desolate is become like the Garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are become fenced, and are inhabited. Then the heathen that are left round about you shall know that I the LORD build the ruined places, and plant that that was desolate: I the LORD have spoken it, and I will do it.” – Ezekiel 36:33-36.

Concerning the new earth, Isaiah, a prophet of God, prophesied that God will create new heavens and a new earth wherein righteousness will dwell or abide. That the former earth (i.e. the content of the Planet Earth as of now) will not be remember nor come to mind. God stated further, “For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind. But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying. There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed. And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them. And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD.” – Isaiah 65:17-25; see also 2^nd Peter 3:13.

Describing further how the new earth will look like Prophet Isaiah wrote, “The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity. Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert. And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes. And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein. No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there: And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.” – Isaiah 11:6-9; 33:24; 35:5-10

On how the earth will be when made new John, an Apostle of Jesus Christ described God’s Kingdom on Earth as shown to him by Christ in a vision at the Island of Patmos. He stated, “And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal; And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof. And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the height of it are equal. And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel. And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass. And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald; The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolyte; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst. And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass. And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof. And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it. And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there. And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it. And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.” – Rev.21:1-5, 10-27

The Holy Bible is very clear that God Almighty did not create the earth planet in vain. It was created to be inhabited. For it is written: “I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded. For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; He hath established it, He created it not in vain, He formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.” – Isaiah 45:12, 18.

Those that will inhabit the new Earth in God’s Kingdom are the meek or righteous ones or the just. This is what the Psalmist King David and King Solomon scribbled in the Holt Scriptures supported by Jesus Christ. It is written: “For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be. But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off. The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever. Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it. …Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.” – Psalm 37:9-11, 22,29,34; Prov.2:21,22; 11:31; Matt.5:5

The just, meek or the righteous are the children of the Kingdom that believe in the truth brought by Jesus Christ and continue in doing the truth from the time of the first advent of Jesus till this age of the end of the world, some of whom will not die but passed from this world of sin to the new Earth in God’s purpose. To such ones Christ admonished, “Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” (John 8:31, 32) Of such ones St Paul wrote that it is the will of god that all men should come to the knowledge of the truth for salvation. He wrote, “For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.” – 1^st Timothy 2:3-4.

Also, to inhabit the new earth in God’s Kingdom are the Ancient Worthies or Faithfuls from the first righteous man Abel to John the Baptist will be on this earth. It was Jesus Christ stated that the least in heaven greater than John the Baptist. It is stated, “Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.” (Matt.11:11) And of other Faithful of old Christ said, “There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out. And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God. And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last.” – Luke 13:28-30; Matt.8:11, 12.

From the foregoing, it can be understood that God has plan for the earth. In God’s kingdom here on earth there will be no economic melt down and other woes that man experience. That is why St. Paul admonished Christians, “Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: for God is a consuming fire.” – Hebrews 12:28,29. God bless you readers of this page.

HOLY GHOST! IS IT A CHRISTIAN PHENOMENON? conclusion

Therefore, from the points already adduced it is now clear that the Holy Ghost is not a phenomenon in Christendom. It is of no relevance. The Holy Ghost is not the same as the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is an invisible force or mind of God through which He influence His Children to do or carry out His will or purpose. All those shout of Holy Ghost fire pursue them and so on are superfluous. Christ did not shout them and did not command Christian to do so. It is the hand work of false prophets. Beware. God Bless.

HOLY GHOST! IS IT A CHRISTIAN PHENOMENON? cont.

And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread. And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. And he said unto them, why are ye troubled? And why do thoughts arise in your hearts? Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. And when he had thus spoken, he showed them his hands and his feet. And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat? And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. And he took it, and did eat before them. And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.” – Luke 24:10-44.

Now, if indeed the Holy Ghost is the Holy Spirit; who is this dead person whose spirit Christ prayed that his Father should send as recorded in John 14:16, 17, 26; 15:26; etc? Or are those who believe that the Holy Ghost is the Holy Spirit saying that God is dead? Is this not the belief of Atheist that some who profess Christianity are supporting? This is ridiculous and blasphemous. The Holy Ghost is not relevant to Christians. It is not a Christian phenomenon.

What is of relevance to Christians is the Holy Spirit which is not a person. The word Spirit is derived from the Latin “Spiritus” which means air or breeze. It cannot be seen but can be sensed or felt. It is these properties of the word spirit that is of great significance in understanding what the Holy Spirit is. That there are spirit persons such as God Almighty, the Father Himself, Jesus Christ, the angels of God, Satan, the Devil and his demons (Luke 24:39; 1^st Cor.15:49-50) but the Holy Spirit is not a person.

The Holy Bible proves that the Holy Spirit is the invisible force of God by which He moves His Prophets and/or Ministers, and people to utter or do His will or purpose. God gave the Holy Spirit to His Prophets of old by which they spoke the words of God. Said King David, “The spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word was in my tongue.” (2^nd Samuel 23:2) Then, St. Peter stated, thus: “Knowing this first that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” (2^ndPeter 1:20, 21) God, the Father gave Jesus Christ the Holy Spirit without measure (John 3:34) John the Baptist, saw the Holy Spirit giving to Jesus Christ without measure as Dove (not a person) (Matt.3:16, 17). On the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came as a rushing wind, while the highest part of the Spirit that can be giving to humans came as “cloven tongues of fire” was received by the apostles. - Acts 2:1-4

If the Holy Spirit was a person the Holy Bible would have been unequivocal about it. Though the pronoun “he” was sometimes used in the Holy Scriptures; this does not in anyway make it a person. There is never a time the pronoun “it” was used for a person. It is either ‘he’ for a male or ‘she’ for a female but the pronoun he or she can be used for an inanimate thing or object. For instance the ship that sails on river is not a person but the pronoun ‘she’ is used for it. Also, a nation is not a person but the pronoun ‘her’ is used for it as recorded in Isaiah 10:11. In the Holy Bible, the pronoun ‘it’ is used for the Holy Spirit. Read Acts 2:3; Romans 8:16; 1^st John 2:27 and so on.

In short, the Holy Spirit is the mind of God that He infuses into the human mind through the words of Jesus Christ the Word of God personified - the Truth. Read Job 8:32; 1^st Cor.2:9-14.

HOLY GHOST! IS IT A CHRISTIAN PHENOMENON?
This phrase HOLY GHOST is commonly used by some Christians to be synonymous to the HOLY SPIRIT. It should be noted that the phrase Holy Ghost is only found in King James Version or Authorised Version of the Holy Bible. All other versions refer to it as Holy Spirit. There is also the belief that the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit is a person. In fact there are those who have the belief that the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead or Trinity. Yet, others belief that the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit of today is God, the Father, Jehovah (Yahweh) of the Old Testament and at the same time Jesus Christ of the New Testament. For the reason of these beliefs it is common to hear some call in their prayers “Holy Ghost----fire” or Holy Ghost fire pursue them or pursue you or Holy Ghost burn them, burn them and so on.
However, a scrutiny of these divergent beliefs against the background of the Holy Bible (the Oracle of God) present quite clearly that they are bogus, imaginary, fictitious and cannot be substantiated at all.
First, it is necessary to appreciate how the words in the phrase Holy Ghost originated. The word “holy” simply mean pure, clean, undefiled, sanctified or sanctity, chastity or inviolate. The word “Holy” as a noun is the name of God Almighty, the Father of all things, Jehovah the Originator of all things. (Isaiah 57:15) He is infinite in holiness and lives from everlasting to everlasting. Anything holy emanates from God Almighty and for the fact He is holy He requires all His Children to be holy. It is written: “But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy” - 1st Peter 1:15, 16; see also Lev.11:44; 19:2; 1st Thess.4:7.
Studies indicate that the word “ghost” in English is derived from a German root word “ghuest” meaning ‘the spirit of a dead person that appears to a living person’; which some generally refer to as Spirit. Therefore, by the above definitions it follows that Holy Ghost means “a pure, clean, sanctified, undefiled spirit of a dead person that appears to a living person. Where in the Holy Bible can someone cite to prove or support that God sends the spirit of a dead person to talk to a living person?
Some cite the case of the witch of Endor whom King Saul of Israel went to consult to bring dead Samuel to talk to him.(1st Samuel 28:7-25) But reading through the passages we find that it was not Samuel the witch saw but gods. She told Saul out of fear that she saw Samuel but when Saul told her not to be afraid, she said she saw gods and we are told that when has recognized Saul she now said she saw and old man coming covered with mantle. Then, we were told that Saul perceived it was Samuel the witch saw. It is written: “then said the woman, whom shall I bring up unto thee? And he said bring me up Samuel. And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spake to Saul, saying, why hast thou deceive me? For thou art Saul. And the king said unto her, be not afraid: for what sawest thou? And the woman said unto Saul, ‘I saw gods ascending out of the earth. and he said unto her, what form is he of? And she said, an old man cometh up; and he his covered with a mantle, and Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he stoop with his face to the ground, and bow himself.” – 1st Samuel 28:12-14.
By the way does God now speak to his people through witches and wizards? The answer is NO. Deuteronomy 15:10-15 makes it clear that God abhors witches and wizards. In ancient times, God spoke to His people through the Prophets but in this age of the end of the world He speaks by His only begotten Son Jesus Christ whom He has appointed heir of God’s Kingdom. For it is written: “God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;” – Hebrews 1:1, 2.
If it is true that it was Samuel the witch of Endor saw the Holy Scriptures is unambiguous that it is Satan, the Devil and his wicked angels or demons that can transform themselves to be like any creature dead or alive, even as Prophet Samuel or as angels of light in other to deceive. For example, it was the Devil that appeared like the serpent to deceive Eve to violate God’s law in the Garden of Eden. (Gen.3:1-5, 13) Read what St. Paul wrote concerning this attitude of the Devil, “Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me. For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.” – 2ndCor.11:1-4, 13-16.
That some people have claimed to have seen a dead person appear to them has been the general belief of many nations, even among the natural Jews before the first advent of Jesus Christ on Earth and Christianity. Thus, it was no surprise that the eleven apostles of Jesus Christ (who then have not received the anointing) could not believe the testimonies of Mary Magdalene, the other women and that of Cleopas and Simon that Jesus had resurrected. So when eventually Jesus Christ appeared unto them they thought that it was his spirit or ghost. However, Christ made them to understand that he has arisen from the dead and was alive; that he is the one speaking with them. For it is written: “It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles. And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not…. And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs. And they talked together of all these things which had happened. And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them. But their eyes were holden that they should not know him. And he said unto them, what manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad? And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him…. And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight. And they said one to another; did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures? And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them, Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon. And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread. And

Main Characteristics Of God

Four basic attributes of God Almighty has emerged from the Holy Bible. They are Wisdom, Power, Justice and Love. These characteristics He gave to mankind which she had not been able to use appropraitely for her benefit. God exhibited His wisdom and power when He made the heavens and the earth. (Job 26:27; Prov. 3:19; Jer. 10:10-12; etc) He used His power to destroy the first world with the deluge of water and delivered Noah and his familly of seven. (Gen. 6,7,8; 2 Pet. 2:5) He also used His power to destroy Pharoah and his army in the Res Sea and saved the Israelites. (Exod. 14) God Almighty also exhibited His power when He stopped the mouths of the Lions when Daniel was thrown into thier den during the reign of King Dairus in the kingdom of the Medes and Persia. - Dan. 6.

Jehovah God exhibited the attribute of justice when Adam and Eve were sentenced to death for violating His commandments in the Garden of Eden. (Gen. 3:1-19) With His attribute of love He sent His only Begotten Son Jesus Christ to this world to redeem man from the bondage of sin and its consequences including death. (John 3:16) It is written "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." - Rom 6:23.

In conclusion, the accurate knowledge of the person of God is vital for one to obtain salvation or eternal life. Jesus Christ in his prayer to his Father our God stated "And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent." (John 17:3) Therefore it is of utmost importance for a Christian to put His trust and confidence in no other god than Jehovah the ever Living God for peace, happiness and life. As it is written: "Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in. Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength."Isa 26:2-4.

The Form Of God The Father

For the reason that the Holy Bible says God is spirit, it is the belief of some people that God, the Father, JEHOVAH is a breeze, having no shape or form .This believe is erroneous. The essential proporties about a spirit is that it cannot be seen by the human eye and/or cannot be touched or handled. This does not give the impression that God is a breeze, having no shape or form. Indeed, he has shape andor form as a person or being. The Bible stated that “Because as He is, so are we in this world." Man was created in the image and likeness of God. Micaiah, the prophet: the Prophet Ezekiel and Stephen, the apostle saw the form or shape of God as a person. St. Paul told the Hebrews that Jesus Christ is the express (exact) image of God, the Father .Gen 1:26; 2 Chron.18:18 Psa 98:8-11; Ezekiel 1:26-28; Acts 7:55,56; Heb 1:1-3 and so on.

The Dwelling Place Of God

The Bible indicates that the dwelling place of God Almighty, is Mount Zion in the heaven of heavens on the sides of the North. - Psa 11:4;Psa 48:1-2; Psa 115:15,16; Psa 66:1 Matt 6:9, e.t.c.

The "LOGOS" or "WORD", the son of God, who came from heaven to this earth and is known as Jesus Christ is also called God. He is called the Mighty God (Isa. 9:6,7) Others worship animals, reptiles and other matterials such as the sun, the moon, ans stars as gods.

Names And Titles
