"Why Everyone Needs Salvation" by Anatoliy Blyashuk (ENGLISH)

За версия Русский / Украинский, иди сюда: ["Почему все нуждаются в спасении?"]

This is the English version of the 2nd document Anatoliy sent me. Since this one is longer, I decided it would make more sense to publish both versions as separate posts. I tried to keep the formatting here as close to the original document as possible, but it still might look a bit strange on Blogspot.

Everything below this line is from Anatoliy, not me. Enjoy! May God give you eyes to see and ears to hear!


Why everyone need salvation?

Everyone needs salvation, no matter, what social rank or moral issues he possesses. We can see it in most known and read book – Holy Bible. Cause only in that book we can find answers about: sin, fall of man and his spiritual restoration. Just took away these subjects from Christianity – and it loose its heart and transform into ordinary religion like Islam. We should realize, what rites aren't fundament of Christian faith. It's not 'just old path, trodden by ancestors'. Fundament of our faith is Jesus Christ. Goal of our faith – to make peace between God and man and restore communication with Him. And only with this two factors everything comes on its place and everything becomes clear in life of every Christian.. Word of God told:

«Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: but your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid [his] face from you, that he will not hear». Isaiah 59:1-2.

Because sin is reason of separation between God and man, this will be first topic of our message. We'll learn about what is SIN, its origins and its influence on man..

Sin:

Origins of sin starts from the devil "He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning". 1 John 3:8. Devil is face of sin at all. If God is face of all good, so devil, being His full contrast, is face of all evil. And when God creating man, He made him in His image and likeness. Image of God in human is sinless nature, denying evil in all form and likeness became, what human is like trinity: "spirit, soul and body".

When human was created, God gave him certain authorities and powers – to rule over Earth and all creation, and most high privilege – to have straight communication with God, what implying immortality. And devil earned impossible task – to destroy this communication. And he succeed. Free will of man and his responsibility was the key to tempt our ancestors – Adam and Eve.

Main function of sin and primal goal of devil – to corrupt relationships between God and man, then finally destroy mankind.

Adam and Eve didn't pass the temptation. They lost sinless image of God FOREVER. Sin enters in Adam and Eve's nature and pervert their mind, made their divine nature dead, what lead to physical and spiritual death. God's word says:

    Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned ". Romans 5:12.

To defeat death and restore communication with God is possible only with rehabilitation of or spirit, which corrupted by sin. That's the heart of whole biblical message.

So what sin is?

«Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.».(1John 3:4).

From the words of Holy Scriptures we can see, what sin is it's violation of the law. It is crime established by God, not man, namely, God, the line between good and evil, no matter whether it is formally forbidden. Since the official authorities can not cancel God's command, they can just violate it by legalizing official. For example, there are countries where homosexuals can legally marry in the same as themselves. In many developed countries, legalized prostitution and civil unions have become our standard. But all this is an abomination in the eyes of God, and should be considered.

Ignorance of the law does not exempt a person from responsibility for his crime:

«For there is no respect of persons with God. For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law» (Rom.2:11-12).

Knowing law isn't enough – we should keep it:

«(For not the hearers of the law [are] just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified».(Rom.2:13).

Most wonderful thing – all people equally understands main principles of 10 commandments of God.. All people equally understands, what's right and what's wrong. But not all can live by these commandments and most of people just ignore them.

Jesus said: «Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide [is] the gate, and broad [is] the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.». (Matt.7:13-14).

Why so? Why human, always knowing lawful path, often walks on lawless path? Answer is simple: «But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.». (James 1:14,15).

Before every sinful act lust comes first. Lust – it's human inclination to evil. This is an irresistible desire to temporary pleasure, arising from excessive fascination object of desire is always movable selfish motive, aimed at the satisfaction of personal interests and needs in illegal way.

For lust people are: killing, raping, stealing, cheating, live immoral life etc.

We' always have a decision – to follow lawful path or lawless path. And we'll always understand, what for reaching our goals by lawful path we will use maximum time, power and sometimes sacrifice something. There always be other way. Lawless way, which offers all in one time without any efforts and sacrifices. Yep, without them for a first sight, cause for earning something we always loose something. It's law and it works, no matter, what way was chosen by man. Difference is only in size of sacrifice and lawless always pays much more than lawful. It's also law.

But man, possessed by lust, can't think normally and always always goes on about his lusts. Man carried away by the hope that the made by his sin go unnoticed, or at least unpunished, and is very easy to succumb to the temptation.

Temptation is out of time and human could be tempt for couple of seconds or even years. But only one thing is constant – result of temptation, in other words it's a sin.

Lust always leads sin. Sin is physical act of our lustful thoughts. Before we always have time for decision.

Committed sin always cause fear before punishment for acts. Fear lead to lies, means next sin, sin generated another sin and we have vicious circle. Main reason of sin and its root is malformed, distorted thinking person that we inherited from Adam.

We have to realize, what we shouldn't fight fruits – just little more time and appears new fruits, bigger and sweeter. We need to fight roots, for that we should change our mind. Man needs realization of his fallen and sinful status, but man shouldn't humble with it, but resist and live like God said.

Unwillingness to resist to sin leads to final destination: «and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death». (Jam.1:15). It means next: if God is beginnings of Life and God is Life Himself, what includes in it all good and lightened, peaceful and joyful, every good thing, what man can feel. Then resistance of it is DEATH and its origin is devil, who acting only for death and devastation. So death is antipode of life and it gives full alienation from it and all it can give.

Death permanently deletes all consciousness of goodness and joy, plunging people into eternal darkness and the void. But it doesn't means complete destruction, because "spirit and soul" are indestructible in compare with physical body and after carnal death "spirit" – source of spiritual light, departs to Giver of spirit and personality of human, his "soul", which includes in itself all feelings, attachments and being able to feel emotional shocks and being infected by sin, comes to place, where all evil is concentrated. Bible tells us about this place as place of eternal anguishes and sufferings. So, affected by sin, has not passed the biblical rehabilitation human soul goes to hell. What is really death.

Word of God said; "And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire". Revelation 20:15.

Deep inside consciousness every man has fear and tremble before God and His Judgment.

Incidentally, this fear and tremble creates systems and conceptions, what challenging existence of God, existing of sin and penalty for it. It's like a defensive reaction for coming danger. Illusive wall, built in mind of human, allows him to live without thought about responsibility for his life before Creator. But this wall will ruined, when man will face eternity and no man can escape it.

So, every man has fear before God and His Judgment, but not every man can see whole picture of our status before God and reality of punishment for our sins. People wish to see hell as place, where every sinful desire could come true, but not place of eternal anguishes and sufferings. And everyone imagines hell as his fears is. So-called heaven for sinners. But making heaven from hell – it's out of logic, unreal and contradicts every normal sense. It's like law, what doesn't punish evildoers, but encourage them to keep on that way. But law means punishment for evildoers. Hell works same.

Human will always justify his fails. He can succeed in self-justifying before people, what surrounds him. Human also can justify himself before himself. But what about God, Who knows even our thoughts, what should we say about acts? You couldn't be mature sinner for entering to hell. Though many people aren't agree with that, we won't guided by our thoughts and suggestions about this, but let we guide by Word Of God and let's see at origin of sin, to «fall of man» and 1st commandment, what established by God for man, for that time still sinless man – Adam.

«And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die». (Genesis 2:15-17).

It wasn't allegory in God's words: «for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die». God didn't tell him, what he'll die on next day or next time or next after…, no…, God says to him clearly, what Adam will die at same moment, when he transgress Lord's commandment.

Establishing commandment, God gives human sense of responsibility, what contributes to its further development and creates him as a person. Same way through commandment God gives human free will for man can decide for his future destiny by himself. Man choose death consciously: «And when the woman saw that the tree [was] good for food, and that it [was] pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make [one] wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat». (Genesis 3:6).

Death became as part of Adam's nature in moment, when he commit sin in first time, transgressing God's commandment and most pitiful thing – we haven't to sin to earn ticket to hell – we already have it. Word of God speaks: «Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned». (Romans 5:12).

We should understand, what man goes to hell not for his personal sins, but just for one, universal, what lives in every person, first sin, what we inherit from Adam, which is expressed in the inability of a person not be avoided, not to resist sin at all. So it doesn't matter, how high is morality of human or his ideals – it won't satisfy God's measure of righteousness. So it doesn't matter, how many sins person commit – everyone's doomed for hell. One conscious sin could nullify all good deeds of man.

God said: «When I shall say to the righteous, [that] he shall surely live; if he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, he shall die for it». (Ezekiel 33:13).

So, is God acts truly ? Let's think about it…

For example let's take ordinary man, who lives his life exemplary. He helps poor, support orphans and engaged in any kind of charity. He's good family man, responsible worker etc. But he has one hidden weakness. He has propensity for violence. Once upon a day he gets into situation, that favors his addiction and, realizing, what such moment couldn’t repeat once again, he decides to commit a crime and fills his thirst, after that he returns to his normal life.

Question: whether he deserves punishment, and can justify him all his right things?

God consider, what there's no justification for this man and he earns worst punishment. Cause his thought image already corrupted by sin, so where's guarantee, what he wouldn't commit same thing in same situation next time?

History and life experience confirms, what human, who taste sin once, will return to it for sure, especially when circumstance will come in hand.

Propensities could be various, but everyone has 'em. Adam has propensity to cognition good and evil. In our example – for violence. Someone will have propensity for fornication, someone for stealing, for lie etc., but all of them are just sides of one stone – diamond named SIN and it doesn't matter, what killed you, matter what you're dead already. There is no difference between big and small sin. Sin always sin, no matter, in what form it came and every sin leads to death.

 Pity, but not everyone can realize reality of punishment for sin. People always tried to earn God's favor and establish own righteousness thru Law or religious rites or good deeds. But all of their tries were without fruits, because law of condemnation is acting – death for one sin.

" For the wages of sin [is] death ". Romans 6:23.

I wonder, exists such man, who can say, what he never commits sin and always kept all commandments of God? Such man just doesn't exist. And every sane man realizes, what by law everyone is doomed for hell.

    As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: there is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. " Romans 3:10-12.

From this statement flows question: why God, knowing, what we're all sinners by nature said, what one will eternally suffers and tormenting in hell, another will be with Him in heaven? It was a bad joke from God? Is loving God can give false hope to man, giving him impossible task? But Scripture said: "God [is] not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do [it]? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? " Numbers 23:19.

Cause we can't earn salvation by our own powers, God grants us with it FREELY, outpouring His grace on us. Word of God speaks: " But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (BY GRACE YE ARE SAVED;) Ephesians 2:4-5.

Grace - gift from God to man, distributed on all men without any exception, no matter, what man did or did not. Grace – reverse side of Law, what always oppose it. If Law requires punishment for sin and death of sinner, so Grace is justify him and gives him life. Law requires, what blessings should be earned, Grace gives 'em like gift.

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast " Ephesians 2:8-9.

So, Word Of God claims, what we're already saved, and one affecting factor isn't our righteousness, but Grace of God, involved in our life through our faith. But in what we should have faith, if we want to have Grace in our life, we talk below, in second part of our message.

Salvation

So, from first part of message we had knew, what all people are sinners and cause of primordial sin we're all doomed to hell and no matter, what was in life of man. It doesn't matter, did man kept high moral standards or had none – he'll faces hell. I should notice, what this shouldn't be regarded as cruelty and callousness of God for we all doomed to hell. No, it was personal decision of man with free will and nothing changed since that day.

In first part we'd knew about justice of God, His righteous rage on sinned man and retribution for sin. In second part we'll know about Love of God to mankind, what had betrayed Him and redemptive sacrifice of Jesus Christ, what opens doors to heavens and forgave us all sins, including primordial sin.

So, Price of Salvation:

All Biblical message of New Testament consists from paradoxes for human sight. One of most weird for us is paradox of God's injustice to us. Cause God has all bases to destroy mankind, erasing it from Earth's surface. And this could be even with good deeds of mankind and it would be fair. But God's injustice to us expressed in His incomprehensible love eludes human understanding. And instead of to destroy us, God makes something reverse. Instead of deserved curse God gives us blessing. Instead of death - life. Instead of perdition - life. Mechanism of grace was activated. And God did it. But do you know, what God did to activate this mechanism? Do you know price of our salvation? But don't you think, my dear friend, what God just close His eyes on all our sins and we'll come to heaven inevitably? It's not so easy as it comes. God is righteous by nature and can't take back His Word and break His own Law. And not imputing crimes and leaving 'em without punishment, God Himself became criminal before Law, what's impossible. And for activation of Grace Mechanism, first of all fulfillment of Law was needed, and this fulfillment should ordinary human like you and me – from flesh and blood. That's why we needed service of Son of God Jesus Christ. Besides fulfillment of Law His ministry could give possibility to born again and defeat death and hope for resurrection.

All ministry of Jesus Christ consists from four parts and it's supernatural, cause fact, what God came to man to serve already supernatural event and it could be only question of faith. Each phase of His ministry exclusively important and necessary, and following one by one, they are interlacing in continuous chain, each link plays its unique role and it's very valuable for us. To break this chain, taking one link, but exclude another is impossible, cause all phases of His ministry are interrelated and become ONE whole thing: God's plan of mankind salvation. But for better understanding this plan and do not loose any detail, we'll look each phase of ministry of Jesus Christ separately: from His birth to death and following resurrection, revealing everything, what we were granted.

So, first phase – His birth. We should notice, what all requirement of Law could fulfill only man, who's free from primordial sin, pure since birth. In such human divine nature should prevail, refusing evil in all form of it, what was in Adam before Fall. Cause of Fall Adam had lost this pure image and sin infiltrate and corrupt his nature and we also have this heritage and last human too. As we can see – ordinary human cannot conceive immaculately, that's why self-salvation is impossible task for us.

Jesus' Christ birth uniqueness consist of two facts. First – He had born from woman, so He's 100% human. But impregnation from Holy Spirit gives Him nature of God, what completely exclude primordial sin from Him. He, being 100% God and 100% human, by His birth returns to human nature its pristine divine image, what could restore human spirit, corrupted by primordial sin and stop it act at all. Every human can start new life and becoming able to live in comparing with Law of God. Bible names it "born again". " Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God " John 3:3.

Necessity of new born comes from man's inability to see and enter Kingdom of God, cause its door opens only for righteous.

Holiness of God, what is in us, it's, first of all statement of our heart, then our deeds and not vice versa. All human tries to reach perfection and establish his own righteousness, always left him with same corrupted, selfish nature. The only thing to which it led, even to a greater decline, and hardened his heart so that a person becomes unable to accept the truth. History of mankind is great testimony for it.

Born again, miracle of second birth – it isn't transformation of old, physical nature. Born again – it's transformation of inner human, his entity. It's complete changing of thoughts, not only just to sin and its individual manifestations, it's changing of thoughts to whole life at all. Man should realize and accept incorrectness of his life principles and positions and on fundament of Word of God make decision to change them and life in compare with principles of Law of God.

Thru being born again, our old corrupted by sin nature became to ruin. But new one became to build, what God gives us. Then man can boldly say with Apostle Paul: " yet not I, but Christ liveth in me ". Galatians 2:20.

So, being born again, we receive the nature of Jesus Christ Himself, what gives us possibility to take right position before God in attitude of our heart. But our fails still remains. Though we've got new thought image and trying to live righteous life, nevertheless we can't execute all the Law, cause most of our life we lived, enslaved by sin. Our old nature destroyed, but its conscience still alive. Cause of spiritual instability we still can be tempt. And for that, so we do not fall under the condemnation of the Law, second phase of ministry of Jesus Christ needed.

His life. Word of God speaks: " Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled ". Matthew 5:17-18.

Since sinful human nature always resist God and His Law, this role was taken by Son of God. Only He, One, who was born by woman can possess this mission, cause Jesus hadn't primordial sin.

During His ministry on Earth Jesus Christ became blessing for many. Fulfilling noble part of the Law, He satisfies God for Divine Understanding of Righteousness. He maintains a standard of righteousness, established by God instead all of us, what gives believers in Him opportunity to be righteous, not with our own righteousness, what we try to prove with some visible deeds, but be righteous with His righteousness by faith. Scriptures said: " For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) Therefore as by the offence of one [judgment came] upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one [the free gift came] upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. ". Romans 5:17-19.

So, birth of Jesus Christ releases us from universal act of primordial sin, and His righteous life – from condemnation of the Law. But without next phase of His ministry, all it would not make any difference to us because they do not remain full of the second part of the law, less noble than the previous. And this is its curse, punishment for sin, what we're all deserve. And believers could still be under yoke of death.. Cause, despite the renewed nature and given righteousness, our past sins would be still on us. And death would have all rights to act within us. " For the wages of sin [is] death ". And in order to save us from this fate, God put it on His Son. Word of God speaks: " Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross". Philippians 2:6-8.

Fulfilling this part of the law, Jesus took sins of all word on Himself. He took our punishment for 'em. Being God, He humble Himself before the image of a slave and being a righteous man, assumes the role of criminal. And fulfilling the last requirement of the law, die for each one of us. He died instead each one of us. Only this can make us clean before God. Scripture speaks: " All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all ". Isaiah 53:6 . " For he hath made him [to be] sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him ". 2 Corinthians 5:21.

Jesus by His death not just cleanse us from our sins, but returning to mankind most high privilege, what was given since Dawn of Time, but lost in Garden of Eden by Adam. He restore our communication with God and opens free access to Him. Word of God speaks: " For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father ". Ephesians 2:18. Thanks to this, today we don't need any mediators like priests to talk with God. Thru Jesus Christ we can do this independently by praying and reading Bible.

After death of Jesus Christ for our sins, there's a time for a final, but not completed phase of His ministry to people.

Resurrection of Jesus Christ became the greatest evidence of human history, the victory of life over death. By His resurrection Jesus had proved not only powerlessness of death over Him, but also gave 100% hope for resurrection and eternal life every believer in Jesus. " Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? ". John 11:25-26.

Jesus died, took our sins on Himself, but He hasn't ANY SIN, what completely disarmed death before Him, cause " O death, where [is] thy sting? " 1 Corinthians 15:56. Death has authority only on those, who had sinned. In this case death had authority only on sins, what had taken by Son of God. When He died on the cross, He fulfilled for us last requirement of Law and, descending to hell, took or sins to death. Throwing off the burden Jesus testified to their innocence, and triumphed over death by using its own weapons . In that way, thru His death we took part in His resurrection. Word of God speaks: " For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also [in the likeness] of [his] resurrection ". Romans 6:5. So we believe, what thru death of Jesus Christ our decrepit nature, what lead us to evil deeds, also die:

«Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [him], that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin.». (Romans 6:6-7). Next step of our faith is proclamation: «Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him». (Romans 6:8-9). That's the CORE of Christian faith. We believe not in corporeal merge with faceless Absolute, but life, where we'll be alive by 100%. We'll have alive, tangible bodies, but not so fragile as now. We'll rule over creation again, like Adam was, and even tame the elements. But main thing – absence of any evil. No pain, no sufferings, no tears, but only peace and love. No one never got tired from love, but the pain is unbearable sometimes, but it won't be there.

Achieving this goal of life is the last stop and our daily struggle against sin, in which we are now helping the Son of God, interceding for us before the Father in Heaven. Once resurrecting, Jesus took His place on the throne with God-Father and keeps His ministry by interceding and justifying us, Christian, believers, but still sinners. Word of God speaks: " Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? [It is] God that justifieth. Who [is] he that condemneth? [It is] Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.». Romans 8: 33-34.

That's the way of activation of Grace Mechanism. Jesus was born for returning to us righteous thought image, by His life He made us righteous before Law, died for our freedom from old sins and resurrect to lead us in blessed Kingdom of His Father.

It's hard to believe in this and, counting on inherent characteristics of a person to believe in anything, but not in truth, it is virtually impossible. But truth is: in the Day of Last Judgement (and it will be for sure) you won't justify yourself by your own righteousness or religious rite you did, or your good deeds, that so often people hope to justify. You can justify yourself by only Faith in Son of God Jesus Christ, not like historical person, not like good doer, but like your own Savior.

    For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life;
John 3:16

He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.. "
John 3:36.

Friend, everything is easy. Now you stand before choice. Think, what do you want to see – God's Love or feel His righteous Wrath. Life, full of God's blessing or life, full of curses cause of sin. The choice is yours! If you want to accept Jesus Christ as your Savior, to get all wholeness of God's blessings and restore lost by our ancestors communication with Creator, then pray this words:

Pray:

«Heavenly Father, I thanks You what You have found me in this huge world. I thank You for chance, for possibility to change my life and live for You, as You wish, and be like You want. I thank You for Your Son, Who died for me and by this I can become righteous before You and accept Your gift – eternal life. I humble with that fact, what I am hopeless sinner by nature and I can't resist sin. I realize, what without You miraculous intervention I doomed for perdition and eternal sufferings in hell. But on fundament of Your Word, what speaks: «That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.». On this place I confess Jesus Christ as Lord and my Saviour, and believe by all my heart, what God resurrect Him from dead. And I plea you, Father, forgive me for all my conscious and unconscious sins and clean my heart from any falsehood. Help me to withstand sin at any of its form and live according to good conscience, by principles and laws of Your Kingdom. Change my heart, my mind by image of Your Son Jesus Christ. Put in my heart love to Your Word. Help me to read It every day. Give me understanding of Your Word and Your Revelation. Father, also by fundament of Your Word, what speaks: «If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? » I plea You to give me Comforter, Spirit of Truth, Which thou hast promised to them that obey Thee . Let Him guide me on any Truth. For all I give You all honor, glory, praise and greatness, my Great and Almighty God, Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Amen».
