February 01, 2008 Why does Jesus call "Love One Another" a "New" commandment?
Jesus called "Love One Another" a "New" Commandment becaused He first showed us that He loved us by his crucifixation on the Cross for our sins so that we may be saved and become heirs of the kingdom of God. He gave us this new commandement because He loved us and he wanted us to love all men in return and he wanted us to prove that we all His disciples just by loving one another no matter who we are, whether black or white, rich or poor, handicapped or whole as by this only we can tryly be called children of God. By loving one another Jesus said that this is the greatest commandment for it is difficult to love those who hurt and took everything from us. Even if somebody borrowed from us we should not expect anything in return if the person can not repay us as we must truly believe that our reward in heaven is great. This is the promise of our Lord Jesu Christ the only begooten son of God our Father.

January 30, 2008 How does being forgiven increase ones love for God? Note: According to Jesus, God`s forgiveness is motivated by love.
When we confess sincerely to the Lord from our hearts without any barriers and with true repentancethen the Lord truly forgives our sins and we feel so much lighter. For as it goes "Cast your burdens upon Jesus for he cares for you" and once we have cast our burdens on the Lord we experience true love flowing within us and we start looking at people in a new way with much love and no hatred left with us. If we believe in God's love for us then we firmly believe in everything that God has created. For God our loving father has sent his only begotten son Jesus into this world so that we may be saved from the fires of hell and have everlasting life.

January 25, 2008 What is the Kingdom of God?
The Kingdom of God is what the Lord Jesus promises us as eternal life. Being God's only son Jesus himself came into the world to proclaim about the place where God our loving Father dwells and wants all of us even if we are sinners, to dwell forever and ever. It is for this purpose that God sent his beloved son Jesus into this world to assure us that there is eternal life in the Kingdom of God. Therefore we have to live good and peaceful life doing all that the father wants us to do in this life so that then only we can enter eternal life. For it is said it easier for a camel to pass through the eye of the needle than for anyone to pass through the Kingdom of Heaven

January 22, 2008 What type of life would you want to keep living for eternity?
The soil of goodness and being close to Our Lord Jesus Christ represents the soil for me. As I know that if we keep close to the Lord Jesus and our Heavenly father we will alwyas know when we are wrong and never think of hurting people and we always look at everything in the right way and do things with the love of God our father through his son Jesus Christ. We are walking on good soil when we feel safe and secure in the arms of our Lord Jesus knowing and trusting that He alone is there for us.
