“‘Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in  and eat with him, and he with me.'” – Revelation 3:20

“The promises of science, of education, of philosophy, of self-knowledge, self-control, self-improvement, are all futile in the face of those personal temptations which assail the learned and and the ignorant alike, which defeat all mental efforts, and overthrow all bulwarks of socalled culture.” – G. F. Dempster

All of us have an earthly father, but not everybody has a heavenly Father.

EARTHLY FATHERS

I cannot remember my earthly father at all.

OUR HEAVENLY FATHER

But I know my heavenly Father.

I know also that I am planted by my heavenly Father. You must know that too. If you don’t know you will be pulled up by the roots. You find that in Matthew 15:13.

“FORGIVEN”

I know also what my heavenly Father says about forgiveness. If I want to be forgiven, I must forgive others. Please read that in Matthew 6:14 and Matthew 18:35

I know also that my heavenly Father is looking after me. My heavenly father feeds the birds. The Bible tells me that I am much more valuable than the birds. In the Bible it says also that my heavenly Father knows what I need. My experience is that my heavenly father gives me more than I need. Praise his name. Please read what it says in Matthew 6:26 and Matthew 6:32.

I know also that I must tell others about my heavenly Father. If I acknowledge him before men he will acknowledge me before his Father in heaven, but if I disown him before men he will disown me before his Father in heaven. You find that in Matthew 10: 32,33.

I have no remembrance  of my earthly father, but I know my heavenly Father and I hope the knowledge of my heavenly Father is increasing.

My earthly father did not come back from World War 2, and I don’t even know  where he is buried.

World War 2

“‘Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and the man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.'” – Luke 16:18

THE CROSS

“So he replied to the messengers,

Luke 7:22,23

Intr.:

‘Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard:

1. The blind receive sight,
2. the lame walk,
3. those who have leprosy are cured,
4. the deaf hear,
5. the dead are raised, and
6. the good news is preached to the poor.

End:
Blessed is the man who does not fall away on account of me.'”

“Key to knowledge”

“‘Woe to you experts in the law, because you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering.'” – Luke 11:52
