*I KNOW-2

*Our mission is to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ absolutely free. We do not want donation. We only want you to know the truth. 

The most important knowledge is not what others know, it is what you know. The most important knowledge is not self-knowledge. The most important knowledge is not human knowledge because human knowledge will pass away.

The most important knowledge is the knowledge that can save you from time to eternity. Do you know?

Years ago, a famous pastor of a large church, when he met me at a book store and asked the question, “What do you know?” I was shy and did not answer him. If it were today, I would answer: “I know Whom I have believed.” Now the pastor who asked the question is no more, the Lord whom I have believed still remains.

  1. )  Job 19:25, “Yet as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last, He will take His stand on the earth.

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  •  For I know] Rather, but I know. This is now something higher to which his mind rises. He desires no doubt to be vindicated before men, and would wish that all generations to come should know his claim to rectitude, when he no more lived himself to make it (Job 19:23-24); but what he desires above all things is that he might see God who now hides His face from him, and meet Him, for the meeting could not but be with joy (cf. ch. Job 23:6 seq.). Job’s problem is first of all a problem of religious life, and only in the second place a speculative one. And the speculative elements in it have no further meaning than as they aggravate the practical religious trouble. A solution of his problem, therefore, was possible in only one way, viz. by his seeing God (cf. ch. Job 42:5)—for to see God is to see Him in peace and reconciliation. And it is to grasp the assurance of this that Job’s heart now reaches forth its hand.
    my Redeemer liveth] “Liveth” means more than is, exists. Job uses the word in opposition to himself—he dies but his redeemer lives after him. The term redeemer (Heb. gô’çl) is frequently used of God as the deliverer of His people out of captivity, e.g. very often in Isaiah 40 seq. (ch. Isaiah 49:7Isaiah 49:26Isaiah 54:5Isaiah 54:8), and also as the deliverer of individuals from distress, Genesis 48:16Psalm 19:14Psalm 103:4. Among men the Goel was the nearest blood-relation, on whom it lay to perform certain offices in connexion with the deceased whose Goel he was, particularly to avenge his blood, if he had been unjustly slain (Ruth 2:20, &c.; Numbers 35:19). Job here names God his Goel. The passage stands in close relation with ch. Job 16:18-19, where he names God his “witness” and “sponsor” or representative. It is probable, therefore, that there is an allusion to the Goel among men—Job has in God a Goel who liveth. This Goel will vindicate his rights against the wrong both of men and God (Job 19:3Job 19:7). At the same time this vindication is regarded less as an avenging of him, at least on others (though cf. Job 19:28-29), than as a manifestation of his innocence. This manifestation can only be made by God’s appearing and shewing the true relation in which Job stands to Him, and by Job’s seeing God. For his distress lay in God’s hiding His face from him, and his redemption must come through his again beholding God in peace. Thus the ideas of Goel and redeemer virtually coincide.
    he shall stand at the latter day] To stand means to arise and appear, to come forward (as a witness, Deuteronomy 19:15Psalm 37:12), or to interpose (as a judge, Psalm 12:5). The word day has no place here. The expression “the latter” means either last or later. It is used of God as the first and the last (Isaiah 44:6Isaiah 48:12), but also otherwise in a comparative sense, later, to come, following (Psalm 48:13Psalm 78:4Ecclesiastes 4:16Job 18:20). Here the word is an epithet of God and can hardly describe Him as the last, for Job certainly does not contemplate his vindication being put off till the end of all things. The expression is parallel to “my Goel” in the first clause, and literally rendered, means: and he who cometh after (me) shall stand; or, and as one who cometh after (me) he shall stand. The trans., in after time he shall stand, is nearly equivalent. Ewald and other high authorities render, an afterman, i. e. a vindicator.
    upon the earth] Better, the dust. The word does not mean earth in opposition to heaven; such an antithesis did not need to be expressed; if God came forward or interposed in Job’s behalf He must do so upon the earth. The word “dust” carries rather an allusion to the earth as that wherein Job shall have been laid before God shall appear for him—the same allusion as is carried in the words “Goel” and “he who cometh after me;” cf. ch. Job 7:21Job 17:16Job 20:11Job 21:26, &c.”

This is a personal knowledge: I know my Redeemer lives.

2.)  Exo 18:11, “Now I know that the LORD is greater than all the gods; indeed, it was proven when they acted insolently against the people.”

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 11. – Now know I that the Lord is greater than all gods. It would seem that Jethro, like the generality of the heathen, believed in a plurality of gods, and had hitherto regarded the God of the Israelites as merely one among many equals. Now, he renounces this creed, and emphatically declares his belief that Jehovah is above all other gods, greater, higher, more powerful. Compare the confessions of Nebuchadnezzar (Daniel 2:47Daniel 3:26, 27) and Darius the Mede (Daniel 6:26). For in the thing wherein they dealt wickedly he was above them. There is no “he was above them” in the original, nor is the clause a distinct sentence from the preceding one. It is merely a prolongation of that clause, without any new verb; and should be translated, “Even in the very matter that they (the Egyptians) dealt proudly against them “(the Israelites). The superiority of Jehovah to other gods was shown forth even in the very matter of the proud dealing of the Egyptians, which was brought to shame and triumphed over by the might of Jehovah. The allusion is especially to the passage of the Red Sea. Exodus 18:11.”

3.)  Num 22:6, “Now, therefore, please come, curse this people for me since they are too ]mighty for me; perhaps I will be able to defeat them and drive them out of the land. For I know that he whom you bless is blessed, and he whom you curse is cursed.”

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 6. – I wot that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and he whom thou cursest is cursed. This was the language of flattery intended to secure the prophet’s services. No doubt, however, Balak, like other heathens, had a profound though capricious belief in the real effect of curses and anathemas pronounced by men who had private intercourse and influence with the unseen powers. That error, like most superstitions, was the perversion of a truth; there are both benedictions and censures which, uttered by human lips, carry with them the sanction and enforcement of Heaven. The error of antiquity lay in ignorance or forgetfulness that, as water cannot rise higher than its source, so neither blessing nor cursing can possibly take any effect beyond the will and purpose of the Father of our souls. Balaam knew this, but it was perhaps his misfortune to have been trained from childhood to maintain his position and his wealth by trading upon the superstitions of his neighbours. Numbers 22:6.”

4.)  1Ki 17:24, “Then the woman said to Elijah, “Now I know that you are a man of God, and that the Word of the LORD in your mouth is truth.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  •  Now by this] R.V. omits the last two words. The italics of A.V. shew that there is nothing in the Hebrew for ‘by,’ and the word rendered ‘this’ is only a particle to strengthen the adverb ‘now.’ The same two words are rendered in A.V. by ‘now’ simply in Ruth 2:7 and should be so translated here. In 2 Kings 5:22 they are translated ‘even now.’
    I know that thou art a man of God] She had so addressed him above in 1 Kings 17:18, but what she desires now to express is her firm assurance. The mercy of her son’s restoration spake more surely of God’s messenger than did the stroke of his death. Jewish tradition represents this boy as the servant who afterwards accompanied Elijah, and finally became the prophet Jonah. (See Jerome, Preface to Jonah.)
    the word of the Lord in thy mouth is truth] This is more than to say that the word which the prophet speaks is truth; or than that the word of the Lord is in his mouth. It expresses a conviction that the Lord Jehovah in whose name Elijah speaks is the true God. Whatever stage her religious belief had before reached, she now advances beyond it, and acknowledges Jehovah as truth itself.”

When I was a boy, I thought every preacher who claimed to be a man of God must be a man of God. Now I grow up to reflect on the past, I know a man who was the head of a mission was a false preacher who preached for his own benefits AND wanted to be served.

5.)  2Ki 5:15, “Then he returned to the man of God with all his company, and came and stood before him. And he said, “Behold now, I know that there is no God in all the earth, except in Israel; so please accept a gift 

from your servant now.”

This may be an insult to many nations.

15–19. Naaman’s gratitude. His imperfect knowledge makes his practice imperfect (Not in Chronicles)
15And he returned to the man of God] He was a stranger in Israel, like the Samaritan among the ten lepers whom our Lord cured, but like him he also manifested his thankfulness. He came back with all his company, that the thanksgiving might lose nothing of its fulness, and in the presence of them all, proclaims the new knowledge which he has gained, how he has found that ‘there is no god who can deliver after this sort’.
came, and stood before him] His feelings and attitude are alike changed, and so the prophet now shews himself to him. Naaman has begun his lesson in the school of Jehovah and Elisha is ready to encourage his weak steps.
no God in all the earth, but in Israel] He has still his notion of different gods assigned to different lands, and does not conceive that Jehovah may be the God of all the earth. He is the God of Israel only, but all that are called gods elsewhere are not to be compared to Him.
take a blessing [R.V. presentof thy servant] Because with a present there generally is given good wishes and benediction, the Hebrews frequently used ‘blessing’ as here for ‘a gift’. Thus (Genesis 33:11) Jacob calls the present which he had prepared for Esau by this name. ‘Take I pray thee, my blessing’. Cf. also Jdg 1:151 Samuel 25:271 Samuel 30:26 (with margin).”

6.)  Job 9:2, “In truth I know that this is so;

but how can a person be in the right with God?

Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible

I know it is so of a truth,…. That is, that God is just, and does not pervert justice and judgment, as Bildad had observed, Job 8:3; Job was a man of great natural parts and capacity; he had a large share of knowledge of things, natural, civil, and moral; and he was a good man, in whom the true light of grace shined; and being, enlightened by the spirit of wisdom and revelation, in the knowledge of divine things, he knew much of God, of his being and perfections, and of the methods of his grace, especially in the justification of men, as appears by various passages in this chapter; he knew that God was just and holy in all his ways and works, whether of providence or grace; and this he kept in sight amidst all his afflictions, and was ready to acknowledge it: he knew this “of a truth”; that is, most certainly; for there are some truths that are so plain and evident that a man may be assured of, and this was such an one with Job; he had no need to be instructed in this article; he was as knowing in this point, as well as in others, as Bildad or any of his friends; nor did he need to be sent to the ancients to inquire of them, or to prepare himself for the search of the fathers, in order to acquire the knowledge of this, to which Bildad had advised; yet, though this was so clear a point, about which there was no room for further contest; but then the matter is:

how should man be just with God? if not angels, if not man in his best estate, in which he was vanity when compared with God; then much less frail, feeble, mortal, sinful men, even the best of men, considered in themselves, and with respect to their own righteousness: for, to “be just” is not to be so through an infusion of righteousness and holiness into men, which in the best of men is their sanctification and not their justification; but this is a legal term, and stands opposed to condemnation, and signifies a man’s being condemned and pronounced righteous in a judiciary way; so a man cannot be adjudged, reckoned, or accounted by God upon the foot of works of righteousness done by him; since his best works are imperfect, not answerable to the law, but very defective, and so not justifying; are opposite to the grace of God, by which, in an evangelic sense, men are justified; these would encourage boasting, which is excluded in God’s way of justifying sinners; and could justification be by them, the death of Christ would be in vain, and there would have been no need of him and his justifying righteousness: especially, it is a certain thing, that a man can never be “just”, or “justified with God”, in such a way, or through any righteousness wrought out by him; that is, either he is not and cannot be just in comparison of God; for, if the inhabitants of the heavens are not pure in his sight, the holy angels; and if man, at his best estate, was altogether vanity when compared with him, what must sinful mortals be? or not be just at his bar; should he mark their iniquities, enter into judgment with them, or an action against them, summon them before him to answer to charges he has to exhibit; they could not stand before him, or go off acquitted or discharged: or in his account; for his judgment is according to truth; he can never reckon that a perfect righteousness which is an imperfect one: or in his sight; for, though men may be just in comparison of others, or at an human bar, in an human court of judicature, and in the account of men, and in their sight, to whom they may appear outwardly righteous, as well as in their own sight; yet not in the sight of God, who sees all things, the heart and all in it, every action, and the spring of it; see Psalm 143:2 Romans 3:20; in this sense, a man can only be just with God through the imputation of the righteousness of Christ, accounting that to him, putting it upon him, and clothing him with it, and so reckoning and pronouncing him righteous through it; and which is entirely consistent with the justice of God, since by it the law is fulfilled, magnified, and made honourable, and justice satisfied; so that God is just, while he is the justifier of him that believes in Jesus, Romans 3:26.”

No matter how good you are, no man is good enough in the sight of God. You can never be justified before God by your good deeds. For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.

7.)  Job 42:2, I know that You can do all things,

and that no plan is impossible for You.

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

2do every thing] Or, canst do all.
no thought can be withholden] That is, no purpose. The meaning is that there is no purpose which the Almighty cannot carry out. Though literally the words seem merely an acknowledgement of power, they are also an admission of wisdom, the plans or purposes of which may be beyond the understanding of man (Job 42:3). Job does not, as might have been expected, acknowledge the Divine righteousness. His confession corresponds to the Almighty’s address to him. That address did not insist on any one Divine attribute, but rather presented God in the whole circle of His attributes, power and wisdom but also goodness, for He refreshes the thirsty ground where no man is. He feeds the ravens, and presides over the birth-pangs of the goats of the rock; and His omnipotence goes hand in hand with His moral rule (ch. Job 40:9 seq.). The Divine nature is not a segment but a circle. Any one Divine attribute implies all others. Omnipotence cannot exist apart from righteousness. Similarly Job’s reply reflects the great, general impression of God now made on him. The exhibition of the Divine wisdom as it operates in nature has led him to feel that within his own history also there is a divine “thought” or “counsel,” though he is unable to understand it. It can hardly, however, be the Author’s purpose to teach the general principle that the “counsel” of God is incomprehensible, because he gives an explanation of it in the Prologue. He is not teaching general principles here, but shewing the position which just thoughts of God will induce a man to take, even when God’s dealings may be beyond his understanding.”

8.)  Psa 50:11, I know every bird of the mountains,

and everything that moves in the field is Mine.

This is just one example of God’s omniscience. God knows every bird of the mountains.

Barnes’ Notes on the Bible

I know all the fowls of the mountains – That is, I am fully acquainted with their numbers; their nature; their habits; their residence. I have such a knowledge of them that I could appropriate them to my own use if I were in need of them. I am not, therefore, dependent on people to offer them, for I can use them as I please.

And the wild beasts of the field are mine – Margin, “with me.” That is, they are before me. They are never out of my presence. At any time, therefore, I could use them as I might need them. The word rendered “wild beasts” – זיז zı̂yz – means any moving thing; and the idea here is, whatever moves in the field, or roams abroad. Everything is his – whether on the mountains, in the forest, or in the cultivated field.”

9.)  Psa 51:3, “For I know my wrongdoings,

and my sin is constantly before me.

This is the first most important thing for sinners to know: wrongdoings, and sin.

Benson Commentary

Psalm 51:3For I acknowledge my transgressions — With grief, and shame, and abhorrence of myself and of my sins, which hitherto I have dissembled and covered. And, being thus truly penitent, I hope and beg that I may find mercy with thee. This David had formerly found to be the only way of obtaining forgiveness and peace of conscience, Psalm 32:4-5, and he now hoped to find the same blessings in the same way. And my sin is ever before me — That sin, which I had cast behind my back, is now constantly in my view, to humble and mortify, and make me continually to blush and tremble. We see here David’s contrition for his sin was not a slight, sudden passion, but all abiding grief. He was put in mind of his crimes on all occasions; they were continually in his thoughts: and he was willing they should be so for his further abasement. Let us learn from hence, that our acts of repentance, for the same sin, ought to be often repeated, and that it is very expedient, and will be of great use for us, to have our sins ever before us, that by the remembrance of those that are past, we may be armed against temptations for the future, and may be kept humble, quickened to duty, and made patient under the cross.”

A person must first know he/she is a sinner before he/she needs the Savior.

10.)  Psa 56:9, “Then my enemies will turn back on the day when I call; This I know, that God is for me.

When I was young and poor, this knowledge that God is for me was most comforting.

Barnes’ Notes on the Bible

When I cry unto thee – This expresses strong confidence in prayer. The psalmist felt that he had only to cry unto God, to secure the overthrow of his enemies. God had all power, and his power would be put forth in answer to prayer.

Then shall mine enemies turn back – Then shall they cease to pursue and persecute me. He did not doubt that this would be the ultimate result – that this blessing would be conferred, though it might be delayed, and though his faith and patience might be greatly tried.

For God is for me – He is on my side; and he is with me in my wanderings. Compare the notes at Romans 8:31.”

11.)  Psa 119:75, “I know, LORD, that Your judgments are righteous, and that You have afflicted me in faithfulness.

Benson Commentary

Psalm 119:75-77I know, O Lord — By the convictions of my own conscience, and by experience; that thy judgments are right — That thy corrections, as the next clause explains this, are just and proper, and that thou, in faithfulness, hast afflicted me — That is, in order to the accomplishment of thy faithful promises, and for my present and eternal good. Let thy merciful kindness, &c. — Yet, in judgment, remember mercy, and give me that support in, and deliverance out of my troubles which thou hast promised. Let thy tender mercies — Thy tender compassion, and pardoning grace; come unto me — Let me have the evidence that I indeed possess them, and experience their blessed efficacy in my own heart; that I may live — That, being passed from death unto life, I may live a life of faith, hope, and love, of joy and gladness, of holiness and happiness; for thy law is my delight — And while I rely on its promises, I make it my care to obey its precepts, and thus manifest the truth of my repentance. Observe, reader, a good man cannot be satisfied or happy without evident tokens of God’s favour to him; but those that delight in God’s law shall not be left destitute of those tokens.

12.)  Psa 135:5, “For I know that the LORD is great

and that our Lord is above all gods.

Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible

For I know that the Lord is great,…. Jehovah the Father is great in his perfections; in his power, wisdom, faithfulness, grace, and goodness; and in his works of creation, providence, and grace: and so is Jehovah the Son, who seems chiefly designed, who is called “our Lord” or “Adon” in the next clause; he is great, having the same perfections his Father has; and doing the same works, besides the miracles he wrought here on earth, and the great work of our redemption: he is the great God and our Saviour, and a great Saviour he is; and indeed he is great in all his offices of Prophet, Priest, and King: and so is the blessed Spirit, who is equal to the Father and Son, and greater than he that is in the world. Now all this the psalmist could say from his own knowledge; he knew the Lord was great, from the consideration and meditation of his wondrous works; he knew the greatness of Christ, from the revelation made to him of his person, offices, and grace; he knew the greatness of the divine Spirit, from the inward experience of his upon his heart, as well as from his being divinely inspired by him; and because of this greatness of the Lord, as well as his goodness, he is to be praised; it is mentioned as a reason of it;

and that our Lord is above all gods; the Lord our righteousness; Immanuel, God with us: our Lord, not only by right of creation, but of redemption; he is above all that the Heathens called gods, even the greatest of them; not the idols their hands made only, but the heavens and all the host of them, the sun, moon, and stars; his glory is above them, being the Maker of them, as God; and he is made higher than they, as man and Mediator: he is above civil magistrates, princes, and kings of the earth, called gods, Psalm 82:5; he is King of kings, and Lord of lords, he is higher than they; by him they reign, and to him they are accountable; and he is above the angels, sometimes called “Elohim”, or gods, Psalm 8:5; he has a more excellent name and nature than they; he is the Creator of them, the object of their worship, to whom they minister, whose servants they are; and he is now exalted above them in the human nature, at the right hand of God; see Hebrews 1:4.

13.)  Psa 140:12, “I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and justice for the poor.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 12. – I know that the Lord will maintain the cause of the afflicted. The psalmist is confident, not only that the wicked will be punished, but also that the righteous, whatever sufferings may come upon them, will ultimately be delivered out of their afflictions (comp. Psalm 9:4, 9, 12, 18, etc.). And the right of the poor. It is not to be supposed that “the right” is always with “the poor;” but, when it is, God will assuredly be their champion. Psalm 140:12

14.)  Ecc 3:12, “I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice and to do good in one’s lifetime.”

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 12. – I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice; rather, I knewperceivedthat there was no good for themi.e. for men. From the facts adduced, Koheleth learned this practical result – that man had nothing in his own power (see on Ecclesiastes 2:24) which would conduce to his happiness, but to make the best of life such as he finds it. Vulgate, Cognovi quod non esset melius nisi laetari. To do good in his life; Τοῦ ποιεῖν ἀγαθόν; (Septuagint); Facere bene (Vulgate). This has been taken by many in the sense of “doing one’s self good, prospering, enjoying one’s self.” like the Greek εϋ πράττειν, and therefore nearly equivalent to “rejoice” in the former part of the verse. But the expression is best taken here, as when it occurs elsewhere (e.g. Ecclesiastes 7:20), in a moral sense, and it thus teaches the great truth that virtue is essential to happiness, that to “trust in the Lord… to depart from evil, and to do good” (Psalm 36:3, 27), will bring peace and content (see in the epilogue, Ecclesiastes 12:13, 14). There is no Epicureanism in this verse; the enjoyment spoken of is not licentiousness, but a happy appreciation of the innocent pleasures which the love of God offers to those who live in accordance with the laws of their higher nature. Ecclesiastes 3:12.”

15.)  Ecc 3:14, “I know that everything God does will remain forever; there is nothing to add to it and there is nothing to take from it. And God has 

so worked, that people will fear Him.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

14I know that, whatsoever God doeth] We ask once again whether we are brought face to face with the thought of an iron destiny immutably fixing even the seeming accidents of life, and excluding man’s volition from any share in them, or whether the writer speaks of an order which men may, in the exercise of their freedom, transgress. And the answer, as before, is that the Debater, while he recognises man’s freedom, has come to see a purpose and an order even in those accidents. So Epicurus himself taught that it was better to hold even the popular belief as to the Gods than to be in bondage to the dogma of a destiny (Diog. Laert. x. 1, § 134). The Eternal Law fulfils itself “whether men will hear or whether they will forbear.” They cannot add to it or take from it, but they retain the power of obeying or resisting it. It partakes so far of the character which was afterwards ascribed to a special revelation (Revelation 22:18-19).
God doeth it, that men should fear before him] There is a profound psychological truth in the thought thus expressed. Men may dream that they can propitiate or change an arbitrary will, but no reverential awe, no fear of God, is so deep as that which rises from the contemplation of a Righteousness that does not change. So, in like manner, the unchangeableness of the Divine Will is made a ground of confidence and hope in the midst of perturbations (Malachi 3:6).”

16.)  Ecc 8:12, “Although a sinner does evil a hundred times and may lengthen his life, still

I know that it will go well for those who fear God, who fear Him openly.”

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 12. – Though a sinner do evil a hundred times. The sentence begins again, as ver. 11, with asher, followed by a participle; and the conjunction ought to be rendered “because,” the statement made in the former verse being resumed and strengthened. The Vulgate has attamen, which our version follows. The Septuagint goes astray, translating, ο{ς ἥμαρτεν, “He that has sinned has done evil from that time.” The sinner is here supposed to have transgressed continually without cheek or punishment. The expression, “a hundred times,” is used indefinitely, as Proverbs 17:10Isaiah 65:20. And his days be prolonged; better, prolongeth his days for iti.e. in the practice of evil, with a kind of contentment and satisfaction, the pronoun being the ethic dative. Contrary to the usual course of temporal retribution, the sinner often lives to old age The Vulgate has, Et per patientiam sustentatur, which signifies that he is kept in life by God’s long-suffering. Ginsburg gives, “and is perpetuated,” i.e. in his progeny – which is a possible, but not a probable, rendering. Yet surely I know; rather, though I for my part know. He has seen sinners prosper; this experience has been forced upon him; yet he holds an inward conviction that God’s moral government will vindicate itself at some time and in some signal manner. It shall be well with them that fear God, which fear before him. This is not really tautological; it is compared to St. Paul’s expression (1 Timothy 5:3), “widows that are widows indeed” (ὄντως), implying that they are, in fact and life, what they profess to be. Delitzsch and Plumptre suggest that in Koheleth’s time “God-fearers” had become the name of a religious class, as the Chasidim, or “Assideaus,” in I Macc. 2:42; 7:13, etc. Certainly a trace of this so-named party is seen in Psalm 118:4Malachi 3:16. When this adjustment of anomalies shall take place, whether in this life or in another, the writer says not here. In spite of all contrary appearances, he holds firm to his faith that it will be welt with the righteous in the long run. The comfort and peace of a conscience at rest, and the inward feeling that his life was ordered after God’s will, would compensate a good man for much outward trouble; and if to this was added the assured hope of another life, it might indeed be said that it was well with him. The Septuagint has, “that they may fear before him,” which implies that the mercy and loving-kindness of God, manifested in his care of the righteous, lead to piety and true religion. Cheyne (‘Job and Solomon’), combining this verse with the next, produces a sense which is certainly not in the present Hebrew text, “For I know that it ever happens that a sinner does evil for a long time, and yet lives long, whilst he who fears before God is short-lived as a shadow.” Ecclesiastes 8:12”

17.)  Isa 50:7, “For the Lord GOD helps Me, therefore,

I am not disgraced; therefore, I have made My face like flint, and I know that I will not be ashamed.

When I was a boy, I used to worry about other boys who had families in better condition than mine. Now I am old man and I am not ashamed to compare their fate with mine.

Barnes’ Notes on the Bible

For the Lord God will help me – That is, he will sustain me amidst all these expressions of contempt and scorn.

Shall I not be confounded – Hebrew, ‘I shall not be ashamed;’ that is, I will bear all this with the assurance of his favor and protection, and I will not blush to be thus treated in a cause so glorious, and which must finally triumph and prevail.

Therefore have I set my face like a flint – To harden the face, the brow, the forehead, might be used either in a bad or a good sense – in the former as denoting shamelessness or haughtiness (see the note at Isaiah 48:4); in the latter denoting courage, firmness, resolution. It is used in this sense here; and it means that the Messiah would be firm and resolute amidst all the contempt and scorn which he would meet, and would not shrink from any kind or degree of suffering which should be necessary to accomplish the great work in which he was engaged. A similar expression occurs in Ezekiel 3:8-9 : ‘Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead strong against their foreheads. As an adamant, harder than a flint, have I made thy forehead; fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks.’

18.)  Jer 10:23, “I know, LORD, that a person’s way is not in himself, nor is it in a person who walks to direct his steps.

This knowledge even when I was young, so I prayed more for the mercy and compassion of the Lord.

Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible

O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself,…. Kimchi and Ben Melech interpret it of that well known man Nebuchadnezzar, whose way was not in himself, and was not master of his own resolutions, but was under the influence and direction of divine Providence: when he set out of Babylon, he thought to have gone against the Ammonites; but when he came to a place where two ways met; the one leading to the children of Ammon, the other to Jerusalem; God changed his mind, and he steered his course to Jerusalem, to chastise Zedekiah for the breach of his oath: but the words seem to have a more general meaning; and the sense to be, that the prophet knew that it was not with him, nor with any of the godly, to escape the judgments that were coming upon them; that they were entirely in the hands of the Lord, to be guided, directed, and disposed of at his pleasure. The words may be accommodated to spiritual things and the affair of salvation; and be rendered thus, “I know, O Lord, that not for man is his way” (d); his own way is not good for him; not his sinful way, for this is opposite to God’s way, and a going out of it; it is not according to his word; it is after the course of the world; and it is a dark and crooked way, and leads to, and ends in, destruction and death, if grace prevent not: nor the way of his own righteousness; this is no way of access to God, no way of acceptance with him, no way of justification before him, no way of salvation, no way to heaven, and eternal happiness; that which is the good and right way, the only way of salvation, is not of man, in him, or with him naturally; it is not of his devising and contriving, and much less of his effecting; it is not even within his knowledge; and so far as he knows anything of it, he does not approve of it: but it is of God; the scheme of it is of his forming; it is a work wrought out by Christ; it is a way of salvation revealed in the Gospel; and the thing itself is savingly made known, and applied by the Spirit of God; all which is known and owned when men are spiritually enlightened:

it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps; as not in natural and civil things, much less in religious ones; a good man is one that “walks”, which supposes life and strength, without which there can be no walking; and a progression, a going on in a way; which ways are Christ, and his ordinances the path of doctrine and of duty; yet it is not even in this good man “to direct” and order “his steps” of himself; it is the Lord that must do it, and does; he can take no step aright without him; he is guided by him and his Spirit, both in the path of truth and of obedience; and hence it is that the saints persevere unto the end; see Psalm 37:23.”

19.)  Rom 7:18, “For I know that good does not dwell in me, that is, in my flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not.”

This is the recognizance and confession of depravity of human nature.

Benson Commentary

Romans 7:18-20For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh — The corrupt and degenerate self, my animal appetites and passions, debased and enslaved as they are by sin through the fall; or in me, while I was in the flesh, chap. Romans 8:8, and not in the spirit, Romans 7:9dwelleth no good thing — Ουκ οικει αγαθονgood dwelleth not. Hence he asserts, in the place just referred to, that they who are in the flesh, whose reason and conscience are under the government of passion and appetite, or who are in their natural unrenewed state, cannot please God. For to will — To incline, desire, and even purpose; is present with me — Παρακειται μοιlies near me, or, is easy for me; but how to perform — Κατεργαζεσθαιstatedly to practise, or, habitually work, (see on Romans 7:15😉 that which is good — Καλονexcellent, I find not — Have not sufficient ability. For the good that I would, &c. — See on Romans 7:15Romans 7:17, for an explanation of this and the next verse.”

20.)  1Co 13:12, “For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will 

know fully, just as I also have been fully known.

Even with Revelation, the best knowledge is partial knowledge. When Jesus comes again, the saints will have full knowledge.

Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers

  •  For nowi.e., in this earthly life, the “for” connecting the previous statement with that which it illustrates.

Through a glass, darkly.—Better, through a mirror in a dark saying. The illustration here is from a mirror when the image appears far behind the mirror itself. If we remember the imperfect metal surfaces which formed the mirrors of those days, we can imagine how imperfect and enigmatical (the Greek word is “in an enigma”) would the image appear; so that the Apostle says, “Like that image which you see when you look at an object in a mirror far off, with blurred and undefined outline, such is our knowledge here and now; but then (i.e., when this dispensation is at an end) we shall see as you see a man when you stand before him face to face. (See Numbers 12:7-8 for a similar thought, but a different illustration of it—“mouth to mouth.”) The word for “glass” here is the same as in James 1:23, and must mean a mirror, and not, as some commentators suggest, a pane of transparent stone or horn, such as was then used, for which a quite different word would have been employed.”

21.)  Phl 4:12, “I know how to get along with little, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry, both of having abundance 

and suffering need.”

I was in abject poverty when I worked my way through college in America. You do not know what it means to be children of poor missionaries. The head of the mission used the money he raised for the mission to educate his children in America with master’s degrees; he did not share one penny with the children of  his poor missionaries. It was not easy to learn how to get along with little. For that reason, I am averse to rich pastors or preachers.

Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers

  •  Every where and in all things.—The original has no such distinction of the two words. It is, in all and everything; in life as a whole, and in all its separate incidents.

I am instructed.—The word again is a peculiar and almost technical word. It is, I have been instructed; I have learnt the secret—a phrase properly applied to men admitted into such mysteries as the Eleusinian, enshrining a secret unknown except to the initiated; secondarily, as the context would seem to suggest, to those who entered the inner circle of an exclusive philosophy, learning there what the common herd could neither understand nor care for. A Stoic might well have used these words. There is even a touch of the Stoical contempt in the word “to be full,” which properly applies to cattle, though frequently used of men in the New Testament. Perhaps, like all ascetics, they mostly knew how “to suffer need,” better than how “to abound.” But a Marcus Aurelius might have boldly claimed the knowledge of both.”

22.)  Jhn 9:25, “He then answered, “Whether He is a sinner, I do not know; one thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see.”

This is a marvelous testimony.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 25. – He therefore answered (and said), Whether he be a sinner – using the words of “the Jews” ironically – I know not. You assert it, but the facts of my experience are altogether of a different kind. I do not know, as you say that you do. The Jews reason from foregone prejudices; the healed man has no such evidence, no such grounds – he adds in immortal words, One thing I know with invincible conviction, that whereas I was blind (De Wette says there is no need to regard the ὤν as an imperfect participle, and the present suggests the whole career of the man from birth till that memorable morning), now I see. The plain consistent testimony of the man triumphs over their logic, which sought to bewilder his judgment. The language which a deeply felt experience can always bring against the a priori demonstrations of the insufficiency of the evidence of Divine revelation. I was blind; now I see the face of God in nature, the kingdom of God all around me, the fact of my own forgiveness, the dawning of a brighter day. John 9:25.”

23.)  1Co 2:2,  “For I determined to know nothing 

among you except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 2. – I determined. The unadorned simplicity of my teaching was part of a fixed design. Not to know anything. Not, that is, to depend on any human knowledge. Of course, St. Paul neither means to set aside all human knowledge nor to disparage other Christian doer, toes. His words must not be pressed out of their due context and proportion. Jesus Christ, and him crucified. Christ, in the lowest depth of his abasement and self sacrifice. He would “know” nothing else; that is, he would make this the central point and essence of all his knowledge, because he knew the “excellency” of this knowledge (Philippians 3:8) – knew it as the only knowledge which rose to the height of wisdom. Christ is the only Foundation (1 Corinthians 3:11). In the person and the work of Christ is involved the whole gospel. 1 Corinthians 2:2”

24.)  2Ti 1:12, “For this reason I also suffer these 

things; but I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am convinced that He is able to protect what I have entrusted to Him until that day.”

Every saved believer can testify, “I know whom I have believed.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  1.  For the which cause I also suffer these things] R.V. places ‘also’ after ‘suffer’ that the emphasis may belong as much to ‘these things’ as to ‘suffer’ according to the order of the Greek; and substitutes yet for ‘nevertheless,’ which is too emphatic for the Greek word.
    am not ashamed] The reference to 2 Timothy 1:8 is obvious, as ‘these things’ are the chains and dungeon of ‘the Lord’s prisoner.’ Cf. Romans 1:16.
    I know whom I have believed] Rather with R.V. him whom, because it is the relative not the interrogative pronoun that is used.
    to keep that which I have committed unto him] R.V. places in the margin the alternative sense, according to its rule when the balance of authority is nearly even, ‘that which he hath committed unto me’; and gives the literal Greek ‘my deposit.’ The genitive of the personal pronoun rendered ‘my’ may be either subjective here or objective; hence the uncertainty, which the context does not clear up entirely. On the whole, looking to the speciality of the phrase and its use in 1 Timothy 6:20, and below 2 Timothy 1:14 of Timothy’s guarding of the sound doctrine handed on to him, and here only besides,—it seems most probable that St Paul is adopting, to describe God’s commission to him, the same words in which he describes the same commission to Timothy. And by a change very characteristic of St Paul, when we might have expected the phrase to run ‘am persuaded that I shall be enabled to guard’ it is made to run ‘am persuaded that he is able to guard.’ Cf. ‘yet not I, but Christ liveth in me’ Galatians 2:20. The guarding, thus, is exactly the same, viz. God’s, in the 14th verse, ‘guard through the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us.’ Compare Romans 7:24-25 with Romans 8:9. See note on 1 Timothy 6:20, for a fuller account of the ‘deposit’ itself, as the commission to hand on sound doctrine. If at the end of the first epistle this had become the Apostle’s chief absorbing anxiety, much more is it so now, in the very hour of his departure.
    against that day] With a view to, in readiness for, that day; cf. Judges 6, ‘angels … he hath kept … unto the judgment of the great day.’

Christianity is unlike other religions, you can be sure and know Whom you have believed.

All you have to do is to repent of your sins and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as your God and Savior. You will have forgiveness of sins and receive the Holy Spirit to guide you into all truth. You can do it now.

All believers are waiting for That Day, the day of second coming of Jesus Christ. The final victory belongs to Christ, therefore belong to Christians.

You too can participate in that Day. All you need to do is to repent of your sins and believe in Jesus Christ as your God and Savior. You can do it now.

*I KNOW-2

*Our mission is to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ absolutely free. We do not want donation. We only want you to know the truth. 

The most important knowledge is not what others know, it is what you know. The most important knowledge is not self-knowledge. The most important knowledge is not human knowledge because human knowledge will pass away.

The most important knowledge is the knowledge that can save you from time to eternity. Do you know?

Years ago, a famous pastor of a large church, when he met me at a book store and asked the question, “What do you know?” I was shy and did not answer him. If it were today, I would answer: “I know Whom I have believed.” Now the pastor who asked the question is no more, the Lord whom I have believed still remains.

  1. )  Job 19:25, “Yet as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last, He will take His stand on the earth.

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  •  For I know] Rather, but I know. This is now something higher to which his mind rises. He desires no doubt to be vindicated before men, and would wish that all generations to come should know his claim to rectitude, when he no more lived himself to make it (Job 19:23-24); but what he desires above all things is that he might see God who now hides His face from him, and meet Him, for the meeting could not but be with joy (cf. ch. Job 23:6 seq.). Job’s problem is first of all a problem of religious life, and only in the second place a speculative one. And the speculative elements in it have no further meaning than as they aggravate the practical religious trouble. A solution of his problem, therefore, was possible in only one way, viz. by his seeing God (cf. ch. Job 42:5)—for to see God is to see Him in peace and reconciliation. And it is to grasp the assurance of this that Job’s heart now reaches forth its hand.
    my Redeemer liveth] “Liveth” means more than is, exists. Job uses the word in opposition to himself—he dies but his redeemer lives after him. The term redeemer (Heb. gô’çl) is frequently used of God as the deliverer of His people out of captivity, e.g. very often in Isaiah 40 seq. (ch. Isaiah 49:7Isaiah 49:26Isaiah 54:5Isaiah 54:8), and also as the deliverer of individuals from distress, Genesis 48:16Psalm 19:14Psalm 103:4. Among men the Goel was the nearest blood-relation, on whom it lay to perform certain offices in connexion with the deceased whose Goel he was, particularly to avenge his blood, if he had been unjustly slain (Ruth 2:20, &c.; Numbers 35:19). Job here names God his Goel. The passage stands in close relation with ch. Job 16:18-19, where he names God his “witness” and “sponsor” or representative. It is probable, therefore, that there is an allusion to the Goel among men—Job has in God a Goel who liveth. This Goel will vindicate his rights against the wrong both of men and God (Job 19:3Job 19:7). At the same time this vindication is regarded less as an avenging of him, at least on others (though cf. Job 19:28-29), than as a manifestation of his innocence. This manifestation can only be made by God’s appearing and shewing the true relation in which Job stands to Him, and by Job’s seeing God. For his distress lay in God’s hiding His face from him, and his redemption must come through his again beholding God in peace. Thus the ideas of Goel and redeemer virtually coincide.
    he shall stand at the latter day] To stand means to arise and appear, to come forward (as a witness, Deuteronomy 19:15Psalm 37:12), or to interpose (as a judge, Psalm 12:5). The word day has no place here. The expression “the latter” means either last or later. It is used of God as the first and the last (Isaiah 44:6Isaiah 48:12), but also otherwise in a comparative sense, later, to come, following (Psalm 48:13Psalm 78:4Ecclesiastes 4:16Job 18:20). Here the word is an epithet of God and can hardly describe Him as the last, for Job certainly does not contemplate his vindication being put off till the end of all things. The expression is parallel to “my Goel” in the first clause, and literally rendered, means: and he who cometh after (me) shall stand; or, and as one who cometh after (me) he shall stand. The trans., in after time he shall stand, is nearly equivalent. Ewald and other high authorities render, an afterman, i. e. a vindicator.
    upon the earth] Better, the dust. The word does not mean earth in opposition to heaven; such an antithesis did not need to be expressed; if God came forward or interposed in Job’s behalf He must do so upon the earth. The word “dust” carries rather an allusion to the earth as that wherein Job shall have been laid before God shall appear for him—the same allusion as is carried in the words “Goel” and “he who cometh after me;” cf. ch. Job 7:21Job 17:16Job 20:11Job 21:26, &c.”

This is a personal knowledge: I know my Redeemer lives.

2.)  Exo 18:11, “Now I know that the LORD is greater than all the gods; indeed, it was proven when they acted insolently against the people.”

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 11. – Now know I that the Lord is greater than all gods. It would seem that Jethro, like the generality of the heathen, believed in a plurality of gods, and had hitherto regarded the God of the Israelites as merely one among many equals. Now, he renounces this creed, and emphatically declares his belief that Jehovah is above all other gods, greater, higher, more powerful. Compare the confessions of Nebuchadnezzar (Daniel 2:47Daniel 3:26, 27) and Darius the Mede (Daniel 6:26). For in the thing wherein they dealt wickedly he was above them. There is no “he was above them” in the original, nor is the clause a distinct sentence from the preceding one. It is merely a prolongation of that clause, without any new verb; and should be translated, “Even in the very matter that they (the Egyptians) dealt proudly against them “(the Israelites). The superiority of Jehovah to other gods was shown forth even in the very matter of the proud dealing of the Egyptians, which was brought to shame and triumphed over by the might of Jehovah. The allusion is especially to the passage of the Red Sea. Exodus 18:11.”

3.)  Num 22:6, “Now, therefore, please come, curse this people for me since they are too ]mighty for me; perhaps I will be able to defeat them and drive them out of the land. For I know that he whom you bless is blessed, and he whom you curse is cursed.”

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 6. – I wot that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and he whom thou cursest is cursed. This was the language of flattery intended to secure the prophet’s services. No doubt, however, Balak, like other heathens, had a profound though capricious belief in the real effect of curses and anathemas pronounced by men who had private intercourse and influence with the unseen powers. That error, like most superstitions, was the perversion of a truth; there are both benedictions and censures which, uttered by human lips, carry with them the sanction and enforcement of Heaven. The error of antiquity lay in ignorance or forgetfulness that, as water cannot rise higher than its source, so neither blessing nor cursing can possibly take any effect beyond the will and purpose of the Father of our souls. Balaam knew this, but it was perhaps his misfortune to have been trained from childhood to maintain his position and his wealth by trading upon the superstitions of his neighbours. Numbers 22:6.”

4.)  1Ki 17:24, “Then the woman said to Elijah, “Now I know that you are a man of God, and that the Word of the LORD in your mouth is truth.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  •  Now by this] R.V. omits the last two words. The italics of A.V. shew that there is nothing in the Hebrew for ‘by,’ and the word rendered ‘this’ is only a particle to strengthen the adverb ‘now.’ The same two words are rendered in A.V. by ‘now’ simply in Ruth 2:7 and should be so translated here. In 2 Kings 5:22 they are translated ‘even now.’
    I know that thou art a man of God] She had so addressed him above in 1 Kings 17:18, but what she desires now to express is her firm assurance. The mercy of her son’s restoration spake more surely of God’s messenger than did the stroke of his death. Jewish tradition represents this boy as the servant who afterwards accompanied Elijah, and finally became the prophet Jonah. (See Jerome, Preface to Jonah.)
    the word of the Lord in thy mouth is truth] This is more than to say that the word which the prophet speaks is truth; or than that the word of the Lord is in his mouth. It expresses a conviction that the Lord Jehovah in whose name Elijah speaks is the true God. Whatever stage her religious belief had before reached, she now advances beyond it, and acknowledges Jehovah as truth itself.”

When I was a boy, I thought every preacher who claimed to be a man of God must be a man of God. Now I grow up to reflect on the past, I know a man who was the head of a mission was a false preacher who preached for his own benefits AND wanted to be served.

5.)  2Ki 5:15, “Then he returned to the man of God with all his company, and came and stood before him. And he said, “Behold now, I know that there is no God in all the earth, except in Israel; so please accept a gift 

from your servant now.”

This may be an insult to many nations.

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

15–19. Naaman’s gratitude. His imperfect knowledge makes his practice imperfect (Not in Chronicles)
15And he returned to the man of God] He was a stranger in Israel, like the Samaritan among the ten lepers whom our Lord cured, but like him he also manifested his thankfulness. He came back with all his company, that the thanksgiving might lose nothing of its fulness, and in the presence of them all, proclaims the new knowledge which he has gained, how he has found that ‘there is no god who can deliver after this sort’.
came, and stood before him] His feelings and attitude are alike changed, and so the prophet now shews himself to him. Naaman has begun his lesson in the school of Jehovah and Elisha is ready to encourage his weak steps.
no God in all the earth, but in Israel] He has still his notion of different gods assigned to different lands, and does not conceive that Jehovah may be the God of all the earth. He is the God of Israel only, but all that are called gods elsewhere are not to be compared to Him.
take a blessing [R.V. presentof thy servant] Because with a present there generally is given good wishes and benediction, the Hebrews frequently used ‘blessing’ as here for ‘a gift’. Thus (Genesis 33:11) Jacob calls the present which he had prepared for Esau by this name. ‘Take I pray thee, my blessing’. Cf. also Jdg 1:151 Samuel 25:271 Samuel 30:26 (with margin).”

6.)  Job 9:2, “In truth I know that this is so;

but how can a person be in the right with God?

Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible

I know it is so of a truth,…. That is, that God is just, and does not pervert justice and judgment, as Bildad had observed, Job 8:3; Job was a man of great natural parts and capacity; he had a large share of knowledge of things, natural, civil, and moral; and he was a good man, in whom the true light of grace shined; and being, enlightened by the spirit of wisdom and revelation, in the knowledge of divine things, he knew much of God, of his being and perfections, and of the methods of his grace, especially in the justification of men, as appears by various passages in this chapter; he knew that God was just and holy in all his ways and works, whether of providence or grace; and this he kept in sight amidst all his afflictions, and was ready to acknowledge it: he knew this “of a truth”; that is, most certainly; for there are some truths that are so plain and evident that a man may be assured of, and this was such an one with Job; he had no need to be instructed in this article; he was as knowing in this point, as well as in others, as Bildad or any of his friends; nor did he need to be sent to the ancients to inquire of them, or to prepare himself for the search of the fathers, in order to acquire the knowledge of this, to which Bildad had advised; yet, though this was so clear a point, about which there was no room for further contest; but then the matter is:

how should man be just with God? if not angels, if not man in his best estate, in which he was vanity when compared with God; then much less frail, feeble, mortal, sinful men, even the best of men, considered in themselves, and with respect to their own righteousness: for, to “be just” is not to be so through an infusion of righteousness and holiness into men, which in the best of men is their sanctification and not their justification; but this is a legal term, and stands opposed to condemnation, and signifies a man’s being condemned and pronounced righteous in a judiciary way; so a man cannot be adjudged, reckoned, or accounted by God upon the foot of works of righteousness done by him; since his best works are imperfect, not answerable to the law, but very defective, and so not justifying; are opposite to the grace of God, by which, in an evangelic sense, men are justified; these would encourage boasting, which is excluded in God’s way of justifying sinners; and could justification be by them, the death of Christ would be in vain, and there would have been no need of him and his justifying righteousness: especially, it is a certain thing, that a man can never be “just”, or “justified with God”, in such a way, or through any righteousness wrought out by him; that is, either he is not and cannot be just in comparison of God; for, if the inhabitants of the heavens are not pure in his sight, the holy angels; and if man, at his best estate, was altogether vanity when compared with him, what must sinful mortals be? or not be just at his bar; should he mark their iniquities, enter into judgment with them, or an action against them, summon them before him to answer to charges he has to exhibit; they could not stand before him, or go off acquitted or discharged: or in his account; for his judgment is according to truth; he can never reckon that a perfect righteousness which is an imperfect one: or in his sight; for, though men may be just in comparison of others, or at an human bar, in an human court of judicature, and in the account of men, and in their sight, to whom they may appear outwardly righteous, as well as in their own sight; yet not in the sight of God, who sees all things, the heart and all in it, every action, and the spring of it; see Psalm 143:2 Romans 3:20; in this sense, a man can only be just with God through the imputation of the righteousness of Christ, accounting that to him, putting it upon him, and clothing him with it, and so reckoning and pronouncing him righteous through it; and which is entirely consistent with the justice of God, since by it the law is fulfilled, magnified, and made honourable, and justice satisfied; so that God is just, while he is the justifier of him that believes in Jesus, Romans 3:26.”

No matter how good you are, no man is good enough in the sight of God. You can never be justified before God by your good deeds. For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.

7.)  Job 42:2, I know that You can do all things,

and that no plan is impossible for You.

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

2do every thing] Or, canst do all.
no thought can be withholden] That is, no purpose. The meaning is that there is no purpose which the Almighty cannot carry out. Though literally the words seem merely an acknowledgement of power, they are also an admission of wisdom, the plans or purposes of which may be beyond the understanding of man (Job 42:3). Job does not, as might have been expected, acknowledge the Divine righteousness. His confession corresponds to the Almighty’s address to him. That address did not insist on any one Divine attribute, but rather presented God in the whole circle of His attributes, power and wisdom but also goodness, for He refreshes the thirsty ground where no man is. He feeds the ravens, and presides over the birth-pangs of the goats of the rock; and His omnipotence goes hand in hand with His moral rule (ch. Job 40:9 seq.). The Divine nature is not a segment but a circle. Any one Divine attribute implies all others. Omnipotence cannot exist apart from righteousness. Similarly Job’s reply reflects the great, general impression of God now made on him. The exhibition of the Divine wisdom as it operates in nature has led him to feel that within his own history also there is a divine “thought” or “counsel,” though he is unable to understand it. It can hardly, however, be the Author’s purpose to teach the general principle that the “counsel” of God is incomprehensible, because he gives an explanation of it in the Prologue. He is not teaching general principles here, but shewing the position which just thoughts of God will induce a man to take, even when God’s dealings may be beyond his understanding.”

8.)  Psa 50:11, I know every bird of the mountains,

and everything that moves in the field is Mine.

This is just one example of God’s omniscience. God knows every bird of the mountains.

Barnes’ Notes on the Bible

I know all the fowls of the mountains – That is, I am fully acquainted with their numbers; their nature; their habits; their residence. I have such a knowledge of them that I could appropriate them to my own use if I were in need of them. I am not, therefore, dependent on people to offer them, for I can use them as I please.

And the wild beasts of the field are mine – Margin, “with me.” That is, they are before me. They are never out of my presence. At any time, therefore, I could use them as I might need them. The word rendered “wild beasts” – זיז zı̂yz – means any moving thing; and the idea here is, whatever moves in the field, or roams abroad. Everything is his – whether on the mountains, in the forest, or in the cultivated field.”

9.)  Psa 51:3, “For I know my wrongdoings,

and my sin is constantly before me.

This is the first most important thing for sinners to know: wrongdoings, and sin.

Benson Commentary

Psalm 51:3For I acknowledge my transgressions — With grief, and shame, and abhorrence of myself and of my sins, which hitherto I have dissembled and covered. And, being thus truly penitent, I hope and beg that I may find mercy with thee. This David had formerly found to be the only way of obtaining forgiveness and peace of conscience, Psalm 32:4-5, and he now hoped to find the same blessings in the same way. And my sin is ever before me — That sin, which I had cast behind my back, is now constantly in my view, to humble and mortify, and make me continually to blush and tremble. We see here David’s contrition for his sin was not a slight, sudden passion, but all abiding grief. He was put in mind of his crimes on all occasions; they were continually in his thoughts: and he was willing they should be so for his further abasement. Let us learn from hence, that our acts of repentance, for the same sin, ought to be often repeated, and that it is very expedient, and will be of great use for us, to have our sins ever before us, that by the remembrance of those that are past, we may be armed against temptations for the future, and may be kept humble, quickened to duty, and made patient under the cross.”

A person must first know he/she is a sinner before he/she needs the Savior.

10.)  Psa 56:9, “Then my enemies will turn back on the day when I call; This I know, that God is for me.

When I was young and poor, this knowledge that God is for me was most comforting.

Barnes’ Notes on the Bible

When I cry unto thee – This expresses strong confidence in prayer. The psalmist felt that he had only to cry unto God, to secure the overthrow of his enemies. God had all power, and his power would be put forth in answer to prayer.

Then shall mine enemies turn back – Then shall they cease to pursue and persecute me. He did not doubt that this would be the ultimate result – that this blessing would be conferred, though it might be delayed, and though his faith and patience might be greatly tried.

For God is for me – He is on my side; and he is with me in my wanderings. Compare the notes at Romans 8:31.”

11.)  Psa 119:75, “I know, LORD, that Your judgments are righteous, and that You have afflicted me in faithfulness.

Benson Commentary

Psalm 119:75-77I know, O Lord — By the convictions of my own conscience, and by experience; that thy judgments are right — That thy corrections, as the next clause explains this, are just and proper, and that thou, in faithfulness, hast afflicted me — That is, in order to the accomplishment of thy faithful promises, and for my present and eternal good. Let thy merciful kindness, &c. — Yet, in judgment, remember mercy, and give me that support in, and deliverance out of my troubles which thou hast promised. Let thy tender mercies — Thy tender compassion, and pardoning grace; come unto me — Let me have the evidence that I indeed possess them, and experience their blessed efficacy in my own heart; that I may live — That, being passed from death unto life, I may live a life of faith, hope, and love, of joy and gladness, of holiness and happiness; for thy law is my delight — And while I rely on its promises, I make it my care to obey its precepts, and thus manifest the truth of my repentance. Observe, reader, a good man cannot be satisfied or happy without evident tokens of God’s favour to him; but those that delight in God’s law shall not be left destitute of those tokens.

12.)  Psa 135:5, “For I know that the LORD is great

and that our Lord is above all gods.

Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible

For I know that the Lord is great,…. Jehovah the Father is great in his perfections; in his power, wisdom, faithfulness, grace, and goodness; and in his works of creation, providence, and grace: and so is Jehovah the Son, who seems chiefly designed, who is called “our Lord” or “Adon” in the next clause; he is great, having the same perfections his Father has; and doing the same works, besides the miracles he wrought here on earth, and the great work of our redemption: he is the great God and our Saviour, and a great Saviour he is; and indeed he is great in all his offices of Prophet, Priest, and King: and so is the blessed Spirit, who is equal to the Father and Son, and greater than he that is in the world. Now all this the psalmist could say from his own knowledge; he knew the Lord was great, from the consideration and meditation of his wondrous works; he knew the greatness of Christ, from the revelation made to him of his person, offices, and grace; he knew the greatness of the divine Spirit, from the inward experience of his upon his heart, as well as from his being divinely inspired by him; and because of this greatness of the Lord, as well as his goodness, he is to be praised; it is mentioned as a reason of it;

and that our Lord is above all gods; the Lord our righteousness; Immanuel, God with us: our Lord, not only by right of creation, but of redemption; he is above all that the Heathens called gods, even the greatest of them; not the idols their hands made only, but the heavens and all the host of them, the sun, moon, and stars; his glory is above them, being the Maker of them, as God; and he is made higher than they, as man and Mediator: he is above civil magistrates, princes, and kings of the earth, called gods, Psalm 82:5; he is King of kings, and Lord of lords, he is higher than they; by him they reign, and to him they are accountable; and he is above the angels, sometimes called “Elohim”, or gods, Psalm 8:5; he has a more excellent name and nature than they; he is the Creator of them, the object of their worship, to whom they minister, whose servants they are; and he is now exalted above them in the human nature, at the right hand of God; see Hebrews 1:4.

13.)  Psa 140:12, “I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and justice for the poor.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 12. – I know that the Lord will maintain the cause of the afflicted. The psalmist is confident, not only that the wicked will be punished, but also that the righteous, whatever sufferings may come upon them, will ultimately be delivered out of their afflictions (comp. Psalm 9:4, 9, 12, 18, etc.). And the right of the poor. It is not to be supposed that “the right” is always with “the poor;” but, when it is, God will assuredly be their champion. Psalm 140:12

14.)  Ecc 3:12, “I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice and to do good in one’s lifetime.”

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 12. – I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice; rather, I knewperceivedthat there was no good for themi.e. for men. From the facts adduced, Koheleth learned this practical result – that man had nothing in his own power (see on Ecclesiastes 2:24) which would conduce to his happiness, but to make the best of life such as he finds it. Vulgate, Cognovi quod non esset melius nisi laetari. To do good in his life; Τοῦ ποιεῖν ἀγαθόν; (Septuagint); Facere bene (Vulgate). This has been taken by many in the sense of “doing one’s self good, prospering, enjoying one’s self.” like the Greek εϋ πράττειν, and therefore nearly equivalent to “rejoice” in the former part of the verse. But the expression is best taken here, as when it occurs elsewhere (e.g. Ecclesiastes 7:20), in a moral sense, and it thus teaches the great truth that virtue is essential to happiness, that to “trust in the Lord… to depart from evil, and to do good” (Psalm 36:3, 27), will bring peace and content (see in the epilogue, Ecclesiastes 12:13, 14). There is no Epicureanism in this verse; the enjoyment spoken of is not licentiousness, but a happy appreciation of the innocent pleasures which the love of God offers to those who live in accordance with the laws of their higher nature. Ecclesiastes 3:12.”

15.)  Ecc 3:14, “I know that everything God does will remain forever; there is nothing to add to it and there is nothing to take from it. And God has 

so worked, that people will fear Him.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

14I know that, whatsoever God doeth] We ask once again whether we are brought face to face with the thought of an iron destiny immutably fixing even the seeming accidents of life, and excluding man’s volition from any share in them, or whether the writer speaks of an order which men may, in the exercise of their freedom, transgress. And the answer, as before, is that the Debater, while he recognises man’s freedom, has come to see a purpose and an order even in those accidents. So Epicurus himself taught that it was better to hold even the popular belief as to the Gods than to be in bondage to the dogma of a destiny (Diog. Laert. x. 1, § 134). The Eternal Law fulfils itself “whether men will hear or whether they will forbear.” They cannot add to it or take from it, but they retain the power of obeying or resisting it. It partakes so far of the character which was afterwards ascribed to a special revelation (Revelation 22:18-19).
God doeth it, that men should fear before him] There is a profound psychological truth in the thought thus expressed. Men may dream that they can propitiate or change an arbitrary will, but no reverential awe, no fear of God, is so deep as that which rises from the contemplation of a Righteousness that does not change. So, in like manner, the unchangeableness of the Divine Will is made a ground of confidence and hope in the midst of perturbations (Malachi 3:6).”

16.)  Ecc 8:12, “Although a sinner does evil a hundred times and may lengthen his life, still

I know that it will go well for those who fear God, who fear Him openly.”

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 12. – Though a sinner do evil a hundred times. The sentence begins again, as ver. 11, with asher, followed by a participle; and the conjunction ought to be rendered “because,” the statement made in the former verse being resumed and strengthened. The Vulgate has attamen, which our version follows. The Septuagint goes astray, translating, ο{ς ἥμαρτεν, “He that has sinned has done evil from that time.” The sinner is here supposed to have transgressed continually without cheek or punishment. The expression, “a hundred times,” is used indefinitely, as Proverbs 17:10Isaiah 65:20. And his days be prolonged; better, prolongeth his days for iti.e. in the practice of evil, with a kind of contentment and satisfaction, the pronoun being the ethic dative. Contrary to the usual course of temporal retribution, the sinner often lives to old age The Vulgate has, Et per patientiam sustentatur, which signifies that he is kept in life by God’s long-suffering. Ginsburg gives, “and is perpetuated,” i.e. in his progeny – which is a possible, but not a probable, rendering. Yet surely I know; rather, though I for my part know. He has seen sinners prosper; this experience has been forced upon him; yet he holds an inward conviction that God’s moral government will vindicate itself at some time and in some signal manner. It shall be well with them that fear God, which fear before him. This is not really tautological; it is compared to St. Paul’s expression (1 Timothy 5:3), “widows that are widows indeed” (ὄντως), implying that they are, in fact and life, what they profess to be. Delitzsch and Plumptre suggest that in Koheleth’s time “God-fearers” had become the name of a religious class, as the Chasidim, or “Assideaus,” in I Macc. 2:42; 7:13, etc. Certainly a trace of this so-named party is seen in Psalm 118:4Malachi 3:16. When this adjustment of anomalies shall take place, whether in this life or in another, the writer says not here. In spite of all contrary appearances, he holds firm to his faith that it will be welt with the righteous in the long run. The comfort and peace of a conscience at rest, and the inward feeling that his life was ordered after God’s will, would compensate a good man for much outward trouble; and if to this was added the assured hope of another life, it might indeed be said that it was well with him. The Septuagint has, “that they may fear before him,” which implies that the mercy and loving-kindness of God, manifested in his care of the righteous, lead to piety and true religion. Cheyne (‘Job and Solomon’), combining this verse with the next, produces a sense which is certainly not in the present Hebrew text, “For I know that it ever happens that a sinner does evil for a long time, and yet lives long, whilst he who fears before God is short-lived as a shadow.” Ecclesiastes 8:12”

17.)  Isa 50:7, “For the Lord GOD helps Me, therefore,

I am not disgraced; therefore, I have made My face like flint, and I know that I will not be ashamed.

When I was a boy, I used to worry about other boys who had families in better condition than mine. Now I am old man and I am not ashamed to compare their fate with mine.

Barnes’ Notes on the Bible

For the Lord God will help me – That is, he will sustain me amidst all these expressions of contempt and scorn.

Shall I not be confounded – Hebrew, ‘I shall not be ashamed;’ that is, I will bear all this with the assurance of his favor and protection, and I will not blush to be thus treated in a cause so glorious, and which must finally triumph and prevail.

Therefore have I set my face like a flint – To harden the face, the brow, the forehead, might be used either in a bad or a good sense – in the former as denoting shamelessness or haughtiness (see the note at Isaiah 48:4); in the latter denoting courage, firmness, resolution. It is used in this sense here; and it means that the Messiah would be firm and resolute amidst all the contempt and scorn which he would meet, and would not shrink from any kind or degree of suffering which should be necessary to accomplish the great work in which he was engaged. A similar expression occurs in Ezekiel 3:8-9 : ‘Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead strong against their foreheads. As an adamant, harder than a flint, have I made thy forehead; fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks.’

18.)  Jer 10:23, “I know, LORD, that a person’s way is not in himself, nor is it in a person who walks to direct his steps.

This knowledge even when I was young, so I prayed more for the mercy and compassion of the Lord.

Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible

O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself,…. Kimchi and Ben Melech interpret it of that well known man Nebuchadnezzar, whose way was not in himself, and was not master of his own resolutions, but was under the influence and direction of divine Providence: when he set out of Babylon, he thought to have gone against the Ammonites; but when he came to a place where two ways met; the one leading to the children of Ammon, the other to Jerusalem; God changed his mind, and he steered his course to Jerusalem, to chastise Zedekiah for the breach of his oath: but the words seem to have a more general meaning; and the sense to be, that the prophet knew that it was not with him, nor with any of the godly, to escape the judgments that were coming upon them; that they were entirely in the hands of the Lord, to be guided, directed, and disposed of at his pleasure. The words may be accommodated to spiritual things and the affair of salvation; and be rendered thus, “I know, O Lord, that not for man is his way” (d); his own way is not good for him; not his sinful way, for this is opposite to God’s way, and a going out of it; it is not according to his word; it is after the course of the world; and it is a dark and crooked way, and leads to, and ends in, destruction and death, if grace prevent not: nor the way of his own righteousness; this is no way of access to God, no way of acceptance with him, no way of justification before him, no way of salvation, no way to heaven, and eternal happiness; that which is the good and right way, the only way of salvation, is not of man, in him, or with him naturally; it is not of his devising and contriving, and much less of his effecting; it is not even within his knowledge; and so far as he knows anything of it, he does not approve of it: but it is of God; the scheme of it is of his forming; it is a work wrought out by Christ; it is a way of salvation revealed in the Gospel; and the thing itself is savingly made known, and applied by the Spirit of God; all which is known and owned when men are spiritually enlightened:

it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps; as not in natural and civil things, much less in religious ones; a good man is one that “walks”, which supposes life and strength, without which there can be no walking; and a progression, a going on in a way; which ways are Christ, and his ordinances the path of doctrine and of duty; yet it is not even in this good man “to direct” and order “his steps” of himself; it is the Lord that must do it, and does; he can take no step aright without him; he is guided by him and his Spirit, both in the path of truth and of obedience; and hence it is that the saints persevere unto the end; see Psalm 37:23.”

19.)  Rom 7:18, “For I know that good does not dwell in me, that is, in my flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not.”

This is the recognizance and confession of depravity of human nature.

Benson Commentary

Romans 7:18-20For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh — The corrupt and degenerate self, my animal appetites and passions, debased and enslaved as they are by sin through the fall; or in me, while I was in the flesh, chap. Romans 8:8, and not in the spirit, Romans 7:9dwelleth no good thing — Ουκ οικει αγαθονgood dwelleth not. Hence he asserts, in the place just referred to, that they who are in the flesh, whose reason and conscience are under the government of passion and appetite, or who are in their natural unrenewed state, cannot please God. For to will — To incline, desire, and even purpose; is present with me — Παρακειται μοιlies near me, or, is easy for me; but how to perform — Κατεργαζεσθαιstatedly to practise, or, habitually work, (see on Romans 7:15😉 that which is good — Καλονexcellent, I find not — Have not sufficient ability. For the good that I would, &c. — See on Romans 7:15Romans 7:17, for an explanation of this and the next verse.”

20.)  1Co 13:12, “For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will 

know fully, just as I also have been fully known.

Even with Revelation, the best knowledge is partial knowledge. When Jesus comes again, the saints will have full knowledge.

Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers

  •  For nowi.e., in this earthly life, the “for” connecting the previous statement with that which it illustrates.

Through a glass, darkly.—Better, through a mirror in a dark saying. The illustration here is from a mirror when the image appears far behind the mirror itself. If we remember the imperfect metal surfaces which formed the mirrors of those days, we can imagine how imperfect and enigmatical (the Greek word is “in an enigma”) would the image appear; so that the Apostle says, “Like that image which you see when you look at an object in a mirror far off, with blurred and undefined outline, such is our knowledge here and now; but then (i.e., when this dispensation is at an end) we shall see as you see a man when you stand before him face to face. (See Numbers 12:7-8 for a similar thought, but a different illustration of it—“mouth to mouth.”) The word for “glass” here is the same as in James 1:23, and must mean a mirror, and not, as some commentators suggest, a pane of transparent stone or horn, such as was then used, for which a quite different word would have been employed.”

21.)  Phl 4:12, “I know how to get along with little, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry, both of having abundance 

and suffering need.”

I was in abject poverty when I worked my way through college in America. You do not know what it means to be children of poor missionaries. The head of the mission used the money he raised for the mission to educate his children in America with master’s degrees; he did not share one penny with the children of  his poor missionaries. It was not easy to learn how to get along with little. For that reason, I am averse to rich pastors or preachers.

Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers

  •  Every where and in all things.—The original has no such distinction of the two words. It is, in all and everything; in life as a whole, and in all its separate incidents.

I am instructed.—The word again is a peculiar and almost technical word. It is, I have been instructed; I have learnt the secret—a phrase properly applied to men admitted into such mysteries as the Eleusinian, enshrining a secret unknown except to the initiated; secondarily, as the context would seem to suggest, to those who entered the inner circle of an exclusive philosophy, learning there what the common herd could neither understand nor care for. A Stoic might well have used these words. There is even a touch of the Stoical contempt in the word “to be full,” which properly applies to cattle, though frequently used of men in the New Testament. Perhaps, like all ascetics, they mostly knew how “to suffer need,” better than how “to abound.” But a Marcus Aurelius might have boldly claimed the knowledge of both.”

22.)  Jhn 9:25, “He then answered, “Whether He is a sinner, I do not know; one thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see.”

This is a marvelous testimony.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 25. – He therefore answered (and said), Whether he be a sinner – using the words of “the Jews” ironically – I know not. You assert it, but the facts of my experience are altogether of a different kind. I do not know, as you say that you do. The Jews reason from foregone prejudices; the healed man has no such evidence, no such grounds – he adds in immortal words, One thing I know with invincible conviction, that whereas I was blind (De Wette says there is no need to regard the ὤν as an imperfect participle, and the present suggests the whole career of the man from birth till that memorable morning), now I see. The plain consistent testimony of the man triumphs over their logic, which sought to bewilder his judgment. The language which a deeply felt experience can always bring against the a priori demonstrations of the insufficiency of the evidence of Divine revelation. I was blind; now I see the face of God in nature, the kingdom of God all around me, the fact of my own forgiveness, the dawning of a brighter day. John 9:25.”

23.)  1Co 2:2,  “For I determined to know nothing 

among you except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 2. – I determined. The unadorned simplicity of my teaching was part of a fixed design. Not to know anything. Not, that is, to depend on any human knowledge. Of course, St. Paul neither means to set aside all human knowledge nor to disparage other Christian doer, toes. His words must not be pressed out of their due context and proportion. Jesus Christ, and him crucified. Christ, in the lowest depth of his abasement and self sacrifice. He would “know” nothing else; that is, he would make this the central point and essence of all his knowledge, because he knew the “excellency” of this knowledge (Philippians 3:8) – knew it as the only knowledge which rose to the height of wisdom. Christ is the only Foundation (1 Corinthians 3:11). In the person and the work of Christ is involved the whole gospel. 1 Corinthians 2:2”

24.)  2Ti 1:12, “For this reason I also suffer these 

things; but I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am convinced that He is able to protect what I have entrusted to Him until that day.”

Every saved believer can testify, “I know whom I have believed.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  1.  For the which cause I also suffer these things] R.V. places ‘also’ after ‘suffer’ that the emphasis may belong as much to ‘these things’ as to ‘suffer’ according to the order of the Greek; and substitutes yet for ‘nevertheless,’ which is too emphatic for the Greek word.
    am not ashamed] The reference to 2 Timothy 1:8 is obvious, as ‘these things’ are the chains and dungeon of ‘the Lord’s prisoner.’ Cf. Romans 1:16.
    I know whom I have believed] Rather with R.V. him whom, because it is the relative not the interrogative pronoun that is used.
    to keep that which I have committed unto him] R.V. places in the margin the alternative sense, according to its rule when the balance of authority is nearly even, ‘that which he hath committed unto me’; and gives the literal Greek ‘my deposit.’ The genitive of the personal pronoun rendered ‘my’ may be either subjective here or objective; hence the uncertainty, which the context does not clear up entirely. On the whole, looking to the speciality of the phrase and its use in 1 Timothy 6:20, and below 2 Timothy 1:14 of Timothy’s guarding of the sound doctrine handed on to him, and here only besides,—it seems most probable that St Paul is adopting, to describe God’s commission to him, the same words in which he describes the same commission to Timothy. And by a change very characteristic of St Paul, when we might have expected the phrase to run ‘am persuaded that I shall be enabled to guard’ it is made to run ‘am persuaded that he is able to guard.’ Cf. ‘yet not I, but Christ liveth in me’ Galatians 2:20. The guarding, thus, is exactly the same, viz. God’s, in the 14th verse, ‘guard through the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us.’ Compare Romans 7:24-25 with Romans 8:9. See note on 1 Timothy 6:20, for a fuller account of the ‘deposit’ itself, as the commission to hand on sound doctrine. If at the end of the first epistle this had become the Apostle’s chief absorbing anxiety, much more is it so now, in the very hour of his departure.
    against that day] With a view to, in readiness for, that day; cf. Judges 6, ‘angels … he hath kept … unto the judgment of the great day.’

Christianity is unlike other religions, you can be sure and know Whom you have believed.

All you have to do is to repent of your sins and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as your God and Savior. You will have forgiveness of sins and receive the Holy Spirit to guide you into all truth. You can do it now.

All believers are waiting for That Day, the day of second coming of Jesus Christ. The final victory belongs to Christ, therefore belong to Christians.

You too can participate in that Day. All you need to do is to repent of your sins and believe in Jesus Christ as your God and Savior. You can do it now.

ARE DEPORTATION EFFORTS HURTING THE ECONOMY? WRONG QUESTION. RIGHT QUESTION: ARE ILLEGAL ALIENS HURTING AMERICA? Most of illegal aliens are on welfare, there are 45 million unlawful migrants already residing in America, including their children born in America who are not citizens. America needs to deport illegal aliens without further delay. To warn Mexico not to be an unlawful door for unlawful migrants to invade America, America needs to drop a few bombs on Mexico City to DETER them.

ON September 3, 2025 for China to mark 80th anniversary of victory over Japanese aggression and fascism is a historical necessity and hard-earned victory. All foreigners who heroically sacrificed their lives for China in their fight against Japanese aggression must individually be commemorated and remembered, their relatives are eternal friends of China. I  have never seen such a great parade before, the size and scope of it would overwhelm your mind; every aspect of it was systematically planned, every step of male and female soldiers was of uniform procedures, every military vehicle with all nuclear missiles and every war airplane in the sky well performed; the words such as grand, massive, superb, magnificent fail to describe the whole celebration. I wholeheartedly salute every Chinese military man and woman who participated. From 1931-1945, the brutal behavior of Japanese and its inhuman atrocities were worse than wild beasts and deserve ten atomic bombs in recompense. Even today Japanese government and leaders do not admit and repent of their war crimes, they worship executed war criminals as their national heroes and living gods. Japan never apologizes and pays compensation for killing 35 million Chinese, made hundreds of thousands sex slaves, millions of labor slaves and untold atrocities. Never again will China be oppressed. I am sure the militant Japan is deterred, but America is on the wrong side of history. Thank God it did not rain.

The mayors of Los Angeles, Washington, D.C. and Chicago are for crooks and criminals, they must be dismissed and deported. All the facts point to the need, Ukraine must be destroyed and its leader executed in order to end the war. Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis are terrorists and the countries that harbor them must be destroyed all together.

Since Gaza, West Bank, etc. are the Jewish lands, Palestinians must evacuate from all Jewish lands and flee to Arab lands where they are safe to receive international aid and build a Palestinian state of their choice.

The leader of Ukraine is corrupt and evil. Ukrainians are stupid to follow the path of destruction. He was the one who instigated war with Russia. Now he asks for security guarantees. The nincompoop should be executed to end the war.

Palestinians, Africans, and others serve as example of peoples who want to eat and do not want to work. UN, WHO, EU, etc. champion their cause. Palestinians do not want evacuate from Gaza, Jewish lands to resettle in Arab lands. Because they will lose their status as refugees where they can get their food, fuel, water, medicine and everything for free from international community. These problems multiply with the passage of time.

UN, EU, GERMANY, UK, FRANCE, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZELAND, ETC. are strange and unreasonable peoples. Who is stopping Palestinians to build a Palestinian state in an Arab land? It is wrong and illegal to build a Palestinian state in Jewish land (Gaza, West Bank, etc.). That is the cause of conflict.

The fact that National Guards have to patrol Washington, D.C. with weapons speaks loudly and badly of the capital. The mayor of Washington, D.C. should be dismissed and deported. All the more urgent the national capital should move to Lincoln, Nebraska, without delay.

The mayor of Washington, D.C. bowed to the illegal acts of street people who set up tents on public streets. She should be dismissed and deported. The National Guards are empowered to trash the tents, clear the streets and vanish street people. Los Angeles is a disgraced city because the California Governor and Los Angeles mayor failed to solve the problems of street people who not only set up tents on public streets, but also urinate and defecate. All the more urgent for the national capital to move to Lincoln, Nebraska. In the face of national debt exceeding $37 trillion, the people can save money by abolishing the House, retain the unicameral legislation of Senate to move also to Lincoln Nebraska. All this can be accomplished legally by a national referendum. America is ruined by dark and evil forces.

Heroes of all races who sacrificed their lives for China in the war against Japanese aggression should be celebrated and remembered. The descendants of them are eternal friends of China. Descendants of American Flying Tiers whose forefathers had sacrificed their lives in the war against Japanese aggression and atrocities must always be honored and remembered. The Chinese government must treat them as eternal friends, and they are welcome to China anytime. Such blood bonds must be appreciated and maintained forever.

The world wrongly marks the anniversary of dropping atomic bomb on Hiroshima while neglecting the Japanese aggression and atrocities of killing 35 million innocent Chinese without remorse or reparations. UN overappointed unqualified blacks and media have given too much coverage to unworthy black spoke-persons. It is amazing no matter how beautifully white organizations and individuals hail human rights, civil rights, democracy, development, technology, benefits, justice, etc., what they are actually after is MONEY. This can be said equally true about blacks.

Pet economy is wasted economy. Money should better be spent on nutrition and education of children and orphans. In cities all dogs must have annual license of Y5,000, cats Y4,000, and birds Y3,000. It is exempt for rural areas. If a dog defecates in public place, it shall be fined Y3,000 plus cleanup by owner or walker.

Global media highlight the number of Palestinians who have died, but fail to consider why Palestinian Authority and Palestinians do not want to evacuate from Jewish land and resettle in Arab land. Palestinians, men and women, young and old, are shameless beggars. They remain in Gaza to qualify for refugees so that they can get everything free from international community. The international community is ignorant of the fact that GAZA and related territories all belong to the Jews. Israel has every right to take back and take over Gaza and related territories. Palestinians must evacuate and relocate to Arab lands, make a living and establish its own Palestinian state without further delay.

French nincompoop Macron recognized Palestine as a state but failed to know that Palestine does not have territory and sovereignty. Leaders of UK, GERMANY, AUSTRLALIA would commit the same mistake by supporting terrorists. Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis are wicked terrorists, they should be destroyed without mercy. Leaders of Palestinian Authority are guilty for the death and malnutrition of children because they lead Palestinians to the path of destruction. They could have led Palestinians to lands of Arabs to earn a living and build their own Palestinian state. Palestinians (young & old, man & woman) are most shameless beggars for food & water, they don’t want to go to an Arab land to earn a living and build their own Palestinian state. Africa amid famine has the most fat people in the world, they are also shameless beggars. Ukrainians are shameless beggars for weapons, they do not have reason for existence. Harvard though the richest university in the world is a shameless beggar for US aid. Japan claims to practice democracy, its ruling party lost election miserably, yet its prime minister shamelessly wants to stay in power. The world must realize years of aid to Africa produced nothing, trillions of dollars went to black holes.  Africa is corrupt, unmotivated and useless. Black leaders and politicians take advantage of it; dress well, eat well, and live a luxurious life style. Black problems can be solved only by Blacks. Let Africa alone to survive on its own. Blacks create most of the problems in the world, given too much coverage and platform in world media, overappointed and given too many spokespersons and positions in UN. Any nation who shares destiny with Africa will be doomed. Nothing good comes out of Africa: primitive religion, superstition, spiritism, orgies, black magic, tribalism, voodooism.

If the Texas flooding is an act of God; Ukraine conflict, and conflicts of Hamas, Hezbollah, and Houthis must be acts of the devil.

India must coexist with China, at the same time India and South Africa must be expelled from BRICS besause they do not remain true to BRICS’ founding mission, they do not belong, must be replaced by Indonesia and Saudi Arabia. US and EU must not rearm Ukraine, let Russia destroy it, and never to be rebuilt. The leader of Ukraine must also be executed.

Palestinian Authorities are guilty for leading Palestinians to a path of death, children died and suffer malnutrition.  Palestian Authorities do not lead Palestinians (who are Arabs) to a land of Arabs to work for a living and build the Palestinian state.

American forces have successfully wiped out three Iranian nuclear sites through B-2 bombers. The “everlasting consequence” is Iran cannot be a nuclear threat anymore. I stand with the overwhelming majority of Dutch people to demolish NATO — the war machine.

The Bible says, 

Mat 10:28, “And do not be afraid of those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear 

Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell.”

Mat 16:26, “For what good will it do a person if he gains the whole world, but forfeits his soul? Or what will a person give in exchange for his soul?”

Mat 26:38, “Then He said to them, “My soul is deeply grieved, to the point of death; remain here and keep watch with Me.”

Luk 12:20, “But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your soul is demanded of you; and as for all that you have prepared, who will own it now?”

Act 3:23, “And it shall be that every soul that does not listen to that prophet shall be utterly destroyed from among the people.”

1Th 5:23, “Now may the God of peace Himself 

sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Plato however smart, he did not receive the divine Revelation that man has spirit and soul and body. It is the spirit that “is immortal and imperishable.”

I say, long dripping water becomes a force, through persistence it can hollow out stone.

The Living God does not change, it is written:

Heb 13:8, ”Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, and forever.” 

During the Flood, everything that was on the earth

perished.

Deu 28:22, “The LORD will strike you with consumption, inflammation, fever, feverish heat, and with the sword, with blight, and with mildew, and they will pursue you until you perish.”

No doubt, people perish because of consumption, inflammation, fever, feverish heat, and the sword.

Historically, the entire house of Ahab perished.

Job 8:13, “So are the paths of all who forget God;

And the hope of the godless will perish.”

Psa 1:6, “For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.

Psa 49:12, “But man in his splendor will not endure;

he is like the animals that perish.

Psa 104:29, “You hide Your face, they are terrified;

You take away their breath, they perish and return 

to their dust.

2Th 2:10, “and with all the deception of wickedness 

for those who perish, because they did not accept the love of the truth so as to be saved.”

2Pe 3:9, “The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not willing for any to perish, but for all to come to repentance.”

9.)  Someone has well said, “If you are not ready today, you will be even less so tomorrow.

It is written,  Heb 3:13, “But encourage one another 

every day, as long as it is still called “today,” so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

10.)  Someone has well said, “If you want to be loved, be lovable.

Mat 5:44, “But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you.”

Mat 5:46, “For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?”

Mat 22:37, “Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.”

Mat 22:39, “And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”

Jhn 14:15, “If you love Me, keep My commandments.”

Jhn 15:12, “This is My commandment, that you love

one another as I have loved you.”

11.)  Someone said wisely, “Make good use of your time, it flies fast.

It is written, Eph 5:16, “making the most of your time, because the days are evil.”

1Pe 1:17, “If you address as Father the One who impartially judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves in fear during the time of your stay on earth.”

1Pe 4:2, “so as to live the rest of the time in the flesh no longer for human lusts, but for the will of God.”

12.)  There is a Latin saying, “Nothing is so high and above all danger that is not below and in the power of God.

Mat 22:29, “But Jesus answered and said to them, “You are mistaken, since you do not 

understand the Scriptures nor the power of God.

According to Jesus, a person can be mistaken for not understanding the Scriptures nor the power of God.

1Co 1:24, “but to those who are the called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.”

1Co 2:5, “so that your faith would not rest on the wisdom of mankind, but on the power of God.”

The Christian faith does not rest on the wisdom of mankind, but on the power of God.

13.)  Safety lies in the middle course.
That falls within the Chinese philosophy.

In the human matters there may be a middle course.

In Christian faith there is no middle ground.

Mat 12:30, “The one who is not with Me is against Me; and the one who does not gather with Me scatters.”

14.)  Ovid said, “All things human hang by a slender thread; and that which seemed to stand strong suddenly falls and sinks in ruins.

Psa 73:18, “You indeed put them on slippery ground;

You dropped them into ruin.

Most people do not know that wealth, fortune, fame, position, power, honor, property, and the like are slippery grounds.

Pro 10:10, “He who winks the eye causes trouble,

and a babbling fool will come to ruin.

Pro 18:24, “A person of too many friends comes to 

ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

Pro 24:20-22, “For there will be no future for the evil person; the lamp of the wicked will be put out.

My son, fear the LORD and the king; do not get

involved with those of high rank, for their

disaster will rise suddenly, and who knows

the ruin that can come from both of them?

Job 21:13, “They spend their days in prosperity,

and suddenly they go down to Sheol.

15.)  The American Heritage Dictionary (Fifth Edition) says. “In Christianity, Jesus is seen as Christ and as the Son of God.” One point is missiong.

Jhn 4:42, “and they were saying to the woman, “It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves and know that this One truly is the Savior of the world.”

For me, Jesus is my God and Savior.

16.)  Ovid said, Let the poor man mind his tongue.”

It is not only the poor man, everyone should mind his tongue.

Pro 21:23, “One who guards his mouth and his tongue,

guards his soul from troubles.

Jas 1:26, “If anyone thinks himself to be religious, yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this person’s religion is worthless.

1Pe 3:10, “For,“THE ONE WHO DESIRES LIFE, TO LOVE AND

SEE GOOD DAYS, MUST KEEP HIS TONGUE FROM EVIL AND HIS LIPS FROM SPEAKING DECEIT.

1Jo 3:18, “Little children, let’s not love with word or with tongue, but in deed and truth.

17.)  Ovid said, A light breath fans the flame, a violent gust extinguishes it.

To know how much is too much, and how little is not enough makes a wise man. The goal determines the measure of activity. A little anxiety is required for one to prepare for an exam, too much anxiety may cause negative result.

Pro 25:16, “Have you found honey? Eat only what you need, so that you do not have it in excess and vomit it.

18.)  Someone said, “Each man is capable of doing one thing well.”

If that is the case, every man will be famous. Masterpiece would not require a genius. A farmer may do farming well, but farming will never make him famous. A fisherman may do fishing well, but fishing may never get him anywhere. It is not enough just doing one thing well, it is necessary to do the most important thing well. If you could paint better than all painters, if you could sculpture better than any sculptors — then and may be then you will become somebody. If you could cook better than all cooks, you may become a chef.

Mat 5:41, “Whoever forces you to go one mile, go with him two.”

You may be different, if you volunteer to go the second mile.

19.)  Plato said, “It is better to be wise, and not to seem so, than to seem wise, and not be so; yet men, for the most part, desire the contrary.

1Sa 16:7, “But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for God does not see as man sees, since man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.

Jhn 7:24, “Do not judge by the outward appearance, but judge with righteous judgment.”

Jas 1:11, “For the sun rises with its scorching 

heat and withers the grass; and its flower falls off and the beauty of its appearance is destroyed; so also the rich person, in the midst of his pursuits, will die out.”

20.)  Plato said, “The purpose of education is to give to the body and to the soul all the beauty and all the perfection of which they are capable.

Act 26:24, “While Paul was making this defense, Festus said loudly, “Paul, you are out of your mind! Your great education is turning you toward madness.”

Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible

And as he thus spake for himself,…. Asserting the integrity and innocence of his past life and conversation, in proof of which he appealed to the Jews themselves; setting forth the prejudices to the Christian religion he had been under; declaring the heavenly vision that had appeared to him, and the divine orders he had received; alleging, that in his ministry there was an entire harmony between him, and the writings of Moses, and the prophets, for which the Jews professed a veneration; as he was thus vindicating himself, ere he had well finished his apology,

Festus said with a loud voice; that all might hear, and being moved with resentment at what he had heard; and it may be, he was displeased with Paul that he took so much notice of Agrippa, and so often addressed him, and appealed to him, when he scarce ever turned to, or looked at him:

Paul, thou art beside thyself; not in thy senses, or right mind, to talk of such an appearance and vision, and especially of the resurrection of a person from the dead. This is no unusual thing for the ministers of the Gospel to be reckoned madmen, and the doctrines they preach madness and folly: our Lord himself was said to be beside himself, and to have a devil, and be mad; and so were his apostles, Mark 3:21 and it is not to be wondered at that natural men should entertain such an opinion of them, since what they deliver is quite out of their sphere and reach: Festus added,

much learning doth make thee mad; the apostle was a man of much learning, both Jewish, Greek, and Roman; and Festus perceived him to be of great reading by his making mention of Moses, and the prophets, writings which he knew nothing at all of. And as this sometimes is the case, that much reading, and hard study, do cause men to be beside themselves, he thought it was Paul’s case: so the philosopher (f) suggests, that men of great wit and learning, and who are closely engaged in study, whether in philosophy, or politics, or poetry, or in technical affairs, are inclined to be melancholy, and phrenetic.”

Act 4:13, “Now when they saw that Peter and John were without fear, though they were men of no 

education or learning, they were greatly surprised; and they took note of them that they had been with Jesus.”

Barnes’ Notes on the Bible

Boldness – This word properly denotes “openness” or “confidence in speaking.” It stands opposed to “hesitancy,” and to “equivocation” in declaring our sentiments. Here it means that, in spite of danger and opposition, they avowed their doctrines without any attempt to conceal or disguise them.

Peter and John – It was they only who had been concerned in the healing of the lame man, Acts 3:1.

And perceived – When they knew that they were unlearned. This might have been ascertained either by report or by the manner of their speaking.

Unlearned – This word properly denotes “those who were not acquainted with letters, or who had not had the benefit of an education.”

Ignorant men – ἰδιῶται idiōtai. This word properly denotes “those who live in private, in contradistinction from those who are engaged in public life or in office.” As this class of persons is commonly also supposed to be less learned, talented, and refined than those in office, it comes to denote “those who are rude and illiterate.” The idea intended to be conveyed here is, that these men had not had opportunities of education (compare Matthew 4:18-21), and had not been accustomed to public speaking, and hence, they were surprised at their boldness. This same character is uniformly attributed to the early preachers of Christianity. Compare 1 Corinthians 1:27Matthew 11:25. The Galileans were regarded by the Jews as particularly rude and uncultivated, Matthew 26:73Mark 14:17.

They marvelled – They wondered that men who had not been educated in the schools of the rabbis, and accustomed to speak in public, should declare their sentiments with so much boldness.

And they took knowledge – This expression means simply that riley knew, or that they obtained evidence that they had been with Jesus. It is not said in what way they obtained this evidence, but the connection leads us to suppose it was by the miracle which they had performed, by their firm and bold declaration of the doctrines of Jesus, and perhaps by the irresistible conviction that none would be thus bold who had not been personally with him, and who had not the firmest conviction that he was the Messiah. They had not been trained in their schools, and their boldness could not be attributed to the arts of rhetoric, but was the native, ingenuous, and manly exhibition of a deep conviction of the truth of what they spoke, and that conviction could have been obtained only by their having been with him, and having been satisfied that he was the Messiah. Such conviction is of far more value in preaching than all the mere teachings of the schools; and without such a conviction, all preaching will be frigid, hypocritical, and useless.

Had been with Jesus – Had been his followers, and had attended person ally on his ministry. They gave evidence that they had seen him, been with him, heard him, and were convinced that he was the Messiah. We may learn here:

(1) That if men wish to be successful in preaching, it must be based on deep and thorough conviction of the truth of what they deliver.

(2) they who preach should give evidence that they are acquainted with the Lord Jesus Christ; that they have imbibed his spirit, pondered his instructions, studied the evidences of his divine mission, and are thoroughly convinced that he was from God.

(3) boldness and success in the ministry, as well as in everything else, will depend far more on honest, genuine, thorough conviction of the truth than on the endowments of talent and learning, and the arts and skill of eloquence. No man should attempt to preach without such a thorough conviction of truth; and no man who has it will preach in vain.

(4) God often employs the ignorant and unlearned to confound the wise, 1 Corinthians 1:27-28. But it is not by their ignorance. It was not the ignorance of Peter and John that convinced the Sanhedrin. It was done in spite of their ignorance. It was their boldness and their honest conviction of truth. Besides, though not learned in the schools of the Jews, they had been under a far more important training, under the personal direction of Christ himself, for three years; I and now they were directly endowed by the Holy Spirit with the power of speaking with tongues. Though not taught in the schools, yet there was an important sense in which they were not unlearned and ignorant men. Their example should not, therefore, be pled in favor of an unlearned ministry. Christ himself expressed his opposition to an unlearned ministry by teaching them himself, and then by bestowing on them miraculous endowments which no learning at present can furnish. It may be remarked, further, that in the single selection which he made of an apostle after his ascension to heaven, when he came to choose one who had not been under his personal teaching, he chose a learned man, the apostle Paul, and thus evinced his purpose that there should be training or education in those who are invested with the sacred office.

(5) yet in the case before us there is a striking proof of the truth and power of religion. These men had not acquired their boldness in the schools; they were not trained for argument among the Jews; they did not meet them by cunning sophistry; but they came with the honest conviction that what they were saying was true. Were they deceived? Were they not competent to bear witness? Did they have any motive to attempt to palm a falsehood onto people? Infidelity must answer many such questions as these before the apostles can be convicted of imposture.

Act 22:3, “I am a Jew of Tarsus in Cilicia by birth, but I had my education in this town at the feet of Gamaliel, being trained in the keeping of every detail of the law of our fathers; given up to the cause of God with all my heart, as you are today.”

2Ti 3:16, “Every holy Writing which comes from God is of profit for teaching, for training, for guiding, for education in righteousness:”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

16All scripture] The word for ‘Scripture’ occurs fifty-one times in N.T., always, except 2 Peter 3:16, of the recognised Old Testament Scriptures, the Law, the Prophets, and the Hagiographa, or of one or more of them; in 2 Peter 3:16 the reference is to St Paul’s epistles and to ‘the other Scriptures.’ The A.V. of a.d. 1611 is therefore not wrong (though many printed copies have altered it) in rendering the word as ‘Scripture’ with a capital S; for it is by itself the recognised technical term.
We should translate Every Scripture probably, as is the proper rendering when there is no article. The word ‘Scripture’ is without the article also in John 19:371 Peter 2:62 Peter 1:20. Those who retain the rendering ‘All Scripture’ with A.V. would lay stress on the technical use of the word shewn above, so that it may be treated as a proper name, comparing Acts 2:36, ‘all (the) house of Israel.’ But this is unnecessary, especially as the three places where the word occurs without the article in the singular have the meaning ‘a Book or passage of Scripture’ and they are in date as late as or later than this Epistle.
given by inspiration of God] One word in the original, a passive verbal, occurring only here in N.T., and meaning ‘filled with the breath of God’ so as to be ‘living oracles,’ Acts 7:38. Cf. 2 Peter 1:21, ‘holy men of God moved by the Holy Spirit.’ Compare also the following passage written about a.d. 95, at the same time as the last N.T. book, St John’s Gospel: ‘Search the Scriptures, the true Scriptures, the Scriptures of the Holy Ghost: ye know that there is nothing unrighteous, nothing counterfeit written in them.’ Clem. Rom. ad Cor. c. 45.
There are two ways of taking this adjective, either as an attribute (so R.V.) or a predicate (so A.V.); either ‘Every Scripture, inasmuch as it is inspired of God, is also useful &c.’ or ‘Every Scripture is inspired and is profitable &c.’ In the latter case the second predicate comes in tamely. In the one case inspiration is assumed, in the other it is asserted.
profitable for doctrineFor teaching.
for reproof] The noun occurs only Hebrews 11:1, ‘the proving of things not seen.’ The corresponding verb is used five times by St Paul in these epistles, e.g. 2 Timothy 4:2.
correction] Only here in N.T. though a good classical word, cf. Dem. c. Timocr. 707, 7 ‘they shall lose their promotion to the Areopagus for putting down the amendment of the laws.’
for instruction in righteousness] Lit. discipline which is in righteousness; the verb ‘disciplining’ has occurred, 1 Timothy 1:202 Timothy 2:25, where see notes. It occurs with ‘reprove’ in the letter to the church at Laodicea, Revelation 3:19, where R.V. ‘chasten.’ ‘Which is in righteousness’ just as ‘faith which is in Christ Jesus’ above; the definite article indicates the definite sphere of exercise for the discipline and the faith. See note on 1 Timothy 1:2, where without the article the preposition and its case are shewn to be very nearly equivalent to an adjective. Ellicott well sums up the meaning ‘that Holy Scripture teaches the ignorant, convicts the evil and prejudiced, corrects the fallen and erring, and trains in righteousness all men, especially those that need bringing to fuller measures of perfection.’”

21.)  Ovid said, “At times it is folly to hasten at other times, to delay. The wise do everything in its proper time.

No one controls events. No one controls timing. It is most difficult to know the appointed time of anything.

No one knows the time of his death.

Gen 29:7, “Then he said, “Look, it is still high day; it is not time for the livestock to be gathered. Water the sheep, and go, pasture them.”

Wise is the man who know it is time or it is not time.

What you do in the time of rejoicing, you cannot do in the time of mourning. The Lord may set a definite time.

Who can pay for the loss of time? Time flies, it does not return. If you do nothing during sowing and plowing time, can you expect something in harvest time? If you do not study hard when you are young, it is no use to regret when you are old.

Mat 13:30, “Allow both to grow together until the harvest; and at the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, “First gather up the weeds and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn.”

Mat 24:45, “Who then is the faithful and sensible 

slave whom his master put in charge of his household slaves, to give them their food at the proper time?

Mar 1:15, “and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God has come near; repent and believe in the Gospel.”

Mar 13:33, “Watch out, stay alert; for you do not know when the appointed time is.

Luk 8:13, “Those on the rocky soil are the ones who, when they hear, receive the Word with joy; and yet 

these do not have a firm root; they believe for a while, and in a time of temptation they fall away.”

1Ti 6:15, “which He will bring about at the proper 

time—He who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords.”

Tit 1:3, “but at the proper time revealed His Word in the proclamation with which I was entrusted 

according to the commandment of God our Savior.”

22.)  Ovid said, The lamp burns bright when wick and oil are clean.

Psa 19:9, “The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring 

forever; the judgments of the LORD are true; they are righteous altogether.

Psa 24:4, “One who has clean hands and a pure heart,

Who has not lifted up his soul to deceit and has not

sworn deceitfully.

Psa 51:7, “Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean;

cleanse me, and I will be whiter than snow.

Jhn 15:3, “You are already clean because of the Word which I have spoken to you.”

Rev 19:8, “It was given to her to clothe herself in fine linen, bright and clean; for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.”

1Th 4:3, “For this is the will of God, your sanctification; that is, that you abstain from sexual 

Immorality.”

1Th 4:4, “that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor.”

Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers

  •  Should know.—The clause is simply parallel to the last, and, with it, explains the word “sanctification.” The Bulgarian Father, Theophylact, says pointedly in reference to the word “to know” or “understand,” “He indicates that chastity is a matter that requires self-discipline and study.” (Comp. Ephesians 5:17.)

To possess his vessel.—The word rendered “to possess” should rather be translated, to procure, win, gain possession of. The word “vessel” here has been interpreted in two ways: (1) “his wife;” (2) “his body.” In favour of (1) it is argued that (while “gaining possession of one’s own body” is unintelligible), “acquiring a wife of one’s own” is an ordinary Greek expression; that in this context, “a vessel,” or “instrument,” is an expressive and natural metaphor; that the word was familiar to Hebrew speakers in that sense (e.g., Ahasuerus says of Vashti, in one of the Targums, “My vessel which I use is neither Median nor Persian, but Chaldee”); that St. Peter (1Peter 3:7) uses the word of the wife. But it may be answered that this interpretation does not suit our context; first, because it would be laying an emphatic and binding veto upon celibacy, if “each one” is “to acquire a wife of his own;” secondly, because of the verb “to know,” it certainly being no part of a religious man’s duty “to know how to procure a wife;” thirdly, because the Greek cannot be translated “a vessel (or wife) of his own,” but “his own vessel” (or wife)—literally, the vessel of himself—and to speak of “procuring” the wife who is already one’s own seems unmeaning. Furthermore, although the quotations from the Targums are certainly to the point, that from St. Peter distinctly points the other way, inasmuch as the wife is called “the weaker vessel of the two,” evidently meaning that the husband is also “a vessel.” Thus we are driven to suppose that (2) the “vessel” is the man’s own self. This usage also is well supported. In 1Samuel 21:5, it is used in precisely this sense, and in the same context, as well as in 1Peter 3:7. The passages, however, usually quoted in support of this interpretation from 2Corinthians 4:7, Philo, Barnabas, Lucretius, &c, do not seem quite parallel; for there the word signifies a “vessel,” in the sense of a receptacle for containing something; here it is rather “an instrument” or “implement “for doing something. Hence it approaches more nearly to the use in such phrases as Acts 9:15, “a vessel of choice,” or even (though the Greek word is different) to Romans 6:13. “The vessel of himself” (the “himself” being in the Greek strongly emphasised) means, not “the vessel which is his own,” but “the vessel or instrument which consists of himself.” Thus the body, which of course is chiefly meant here, is not dissociated from the man’s personality, as in the fanciful Platonism of Philo, but almost identified with it: the Incarnation has taught us the true dignity of the body. Thus it becomes easy to understand what is meant by “knowing how to gain possession of” such an instrument as the body with its many faculties, rescuing it from its vile prostitution, and wielding it wisely for its proper uses. So the same Greek verb is used, and mistranslated in our version, in Luke 21:19, “In your patience possess ye your souls.”

In sanctification and honour.—The circumstances in which—almost the means by which—the man may acquire and keep this skilful power over his instrument:—“in a course of self-purification and of self-reverence.” The reverence due to the instrument is brought out in a passage of St. Peter evidently modelled upon this (1Peter 3:7). (Comp. also 2Timothy 2:21, “an instrument for honourable purposes, and to be honourably treated, consecrated, and handy for its owner’s use.”).”

1Th 4:5, “not in lustful passion, like the Gentiles who do not know God.”

Psa 51:10, “Create in me a clean heart, God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  •  Create in me] Rather, Create me, i.e. for me. The word is used of the creative operation of God, bringing into being what did not exist before: and so in the parallel line renew should be rather make new (Vulg. innova better than Jer. renova). It is not the restoration of what was there before that he desires, but a radical change of heart and spirit. A right spirit should rather be a stedfast or constant spirit (Psalm 57:7Psalm 78:37Psalm 112:7), fixed and resolute in its allegiance to God, unmoved by the assaults of temptation. Such a clean heart and stedfast spirit, the condition of fellowship with God (Matthew 5:8), the spring of a holy life, can only come from the creative, life-giving power of God. Cp. the prophetic promises in Jeremiah 24:7Jeremiah 31:33Jeremiah 32:39Ezekiel 11:19Ezekiel 18:31Ezekiel 36:26; and see 2 Corinthians 5:17Galatians 6:15Ephesians 2:10Ephesians 4:24.”

23.)  Pascal said, “Truth is so obscure in these times, and falsehood so established, that, unless we love the truth, we cannot know it.

Jhn 7:17, “If anyone is willing to do His will, he will 

know about the teaching, whether it is of God, or I am speaking from Myself.”

Jhn 8:32, “and you will know the truth, and the 

truth will set you free.”

Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers

  •  And ye shall know the truth.—In the great Intercessory Prayer of John 17, Jesus prays for His disciples: “Sanctify them in the truth: Thy word is truth” (John 8:17). In the answer to the question of Thomas in John 14, He declares, “I am the way, the truth, and the life” (John 8:6). It is this thought that is present in the connection between continuance in His word and knowledge of the truth here. These Jews professed to know the truth, and to be the official expounders of it. They had yet to learn that truth was not only a system, but also a power; not only something to be written or spoken, but also something to be felt and lived. If they abide in His word they will indeed be His disciples; living the life of truth, they will gain perception of truth. “Being true,” they will “in love grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ” (Ephesians 4:15).

And the truth shall make you free.—Here, as in John 17:17, truth and holiness are spoken of as correlative. The light of truth dispels the darkness in which lies the stronghold of evil. Sin is the bondage of the powers of the soul, and this bondage is willed because the soul does not see its fearful evil. When it perceives the truth, there comes to it a power which rouses it from its stupor, and strengthens it to break the fetters by which it has been bound. Freedom from the Roman rule was one of the national hopes bound up with Messiah’s Advent. There is indeed a freedom from a more crushing foe than the legions of Rome. (Comp. Mark 5:9Luke 8:30.).”

Jesus says,

Jhn 17:17, “Sanctify them in the truth; Your Word is truth.”

24.)  Pascal said, There is a God shaped vacuum in the heart of every man which cannot be filled by any created thing, but only by God, the Creator, made known through Jesus.

If Pascal had not said anything true and important before, this statement alone is more than enough to make him worthy.

Rom 3:22, “but it is the righteousness of God 

through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe; for there is no distinction.”

Rom 3:24, “being justified as a gift by His grace 

through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus.”

Rom 5:1, “Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Rom 5:11, “And not only this, but we also celebrate in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.”

Rom 5:17, “For if by the offense of the one, death reigned through the one, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.”

Rom 5:21, “so that, as sin reigned in death, so also 

grace would reign through righteousness to eternal 

life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

Rom 8:11, “But if the Spirit of Him who raised

Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised 

Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.”

Rom 16:27, “to the only wise God, through Jesus 

Christ, be the glory forever. Amen.”

1Co 8:6, “yet for us there is only one God, the Father, from whom are all things, and we exist for Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we exist through Him.”

Barnes’ Notes on the Bible

But to us – Christians. We acknowledge but one God, Whatever the pagan worship, we know that there is but one God; and he alone has a right to rule over us.

One God, the Father – Whom we acknowledge as the Father of all; Author of all things; and who sustains to all his works the relation of a father. The word “Father” here is not used as applicable to the first person of the Trinity, as distinguished from the second, but is applied to God as God; not as the Father in contradistinction from the Son, but to the divine nature as such, without reference to that distinction – the Father as distinguished from his offspring, the works that owe their origin to him. This is manifest:

  • Because the apostle does not use the correlative term” Son” when he comes to speak of the “one Lord Jesus Christ;” and,
  • Because the scope of the passage requires it. The apostle speaks of God, of the divine nature, the one infinitely holy Being, as sustaining the relation of Father “to his creatures.” He produced them, He provides for them. He protects them, as a father does his children. He regards their welfare; pities them in their sorrows; sustains them in trial; shows himself to be their friend. The name “Father” is thus given frequently to God, as applicable to the one God, the divine Being; Psalm 103:13Jeremiah 31:9Malachi 1:6Malachi 2:10Matthew 6:9Luke 11:2, etc. In other places it is applied to the first person of the Trinity as distinguished from the second; and in these instances the correlative “Son” is used, Luke 10:22Luke 22:42John 1:18John 3:35John 5:19-23John 5:26John 5:30John 5:36Hebrews 1:52 Peter 1:17, etc.

Of whom – ἐξ οὗ ex hou. From whom as a fountain and source; by whose counsel, plan, and purpose. He is the great source of all; and all depend on him. It was by his purpose and power that all things were formed, and to all he sustains the relation of a Father. The agent in producing all things, however, was the Son, Colossians 1:16; see the note at John 1:3.

Are all things – These words evidently refer to the whole work of creation, as deriving their origin from God, Genesis 1:1. Everything has thus been formed in accordance with his plan; and all things now depend on him as their Father.

And we – We Christians. We are what we are by him. We owe our existence to him; and by him we have been regenerated and saved. It is owing to his counsel, purpose, agency, that we have an existence; and owing to him that we have the hope of eternal life. The leading idea here is, probably, that to God Christians owe their hopes and happiness.

In him – (εἰς αὐτόν eis auton); or rather unto him: that is, we are formed for him, and should live to his glory. We have been made what we are, as Christians, that we may promote his honor and glory.

And one Lord … – One Lord in contradistinction from the “many lords” whom the pagans worshipped. The word “Lord” here is used in the sense of proprietor, ruler, governor, or king; and the idea is, that Christians acknowledge subjection to Him alone, and not to many sovereigns, as the pagans did. Jesus Christ is the Ruler and Lord of his people. They acknowledge their allegiance to him as their supreme Lawgiver and King. They do not acknowledge subjection to many rulers, whether imaginary gods or human beings; but receive their laws from him alone. The word “Lord” here does not imply of necessity any inferiority to God; since it is a term which is frequently applied to God himself. The idea in the passage is, that from God, the Father of all, we derive our existence, and all that we have; and that we acknowledge “immediate and direct” subjection to the Lord Jesus as our Lawgiver and Sovereign. From him Christians receive their laws, and to him they submit their lives. And this idea is so far from supposing inferiority in the Lord Jesus to God, that it rather supposes equality; since a right to give laws to people, to rule their consciences, to direct their religious opinions and their lives, can appropriately pertain only to one who has equality with God.

By whom … – δἰ οὗ di’ hou. By whose “agency;” or through whom, as the agent. The word “by” (δι ̓ di’) stands in contradistinction from “of” (ἐξ ex) in the former part of the verse; and obviously means, that, though “all things” derived their existence from God as the fountain and author, yet it was “by” the agency of the Lord Jesus. This doctrine, that the Son of God was the great agent in the creation of the world, is elsewhere abundantly taught in the Scriptures; see the note at John 1:3.

Are all things – The universe; for so the phrase τὰ πάντα ta panta properly means. No words could better express the idea of the universe than these; and the declaration is therefore explicit that the Lord Jesus created all things. Some explain this of the “new creation;” as if Paul had said that all things pertaining to our salvation were from him. But the objections to this interpretation are obvious:

(1) It is not the natural signification.

(2) the phrase “all things” naturally denotes the universe.

(3) the scope of the passage requires us so to understand it. Paul is not speaking of the new creature; but he is speaking of the question whether there is more than one God, one Creator, one Ruler over the wide universe. The pagan said there was; Christians affirmed that there was not. The scope, therefore, of the passage requires us to understand this of the vast material universe; and the obvious declaration here is, that the Lord Jesus was the Creator of all.

You have learned a lot of Bible knowledge. Knowledge requires action. To receive Jesus Christ is to receive eternal life. Would you repent of you sins and believe in the Lord Jesus as your Savior? You can do it now.

ARE DEPORTATION EFFORTS HURTING THE ECONOMY? WRONG QUESTION. RIGHT QUESTION: ARE ILLEGAL ALIENS HURTING AMERICA? Most of illegal aliens are on welfare, there are 45 million unlawful migrants already residing in America, including their children born in America who are not citizens. America needs to deport illegal aliens without further delay. To warn Mexico not to be an unlawful door for unlawful migrants to invade America, America needs to drop a few bombs on Mexico City to DETER them.

ON September 3, 2025 for China to mark 80th anniversary of victory over Japanese aggression and fascism is a historical necessity and hard-earned victory. All foreigners who heroically sacrificed their lives for China in their fight against Japanese aggression must individually be commemorated and remembered, their relatives are eternal friends of China. I  have never seen such a great parade before, the size and scope of it would overwhelm your mind; every aspect of it was systematically planned, every step of male and female soldiers was of uniform procedures, every military vehicle with all nuclear missiles and every war airplane in the sky well performed; the words such as grand, massive, superb, magnificent fail to describe the whole celebration. I wholeheartedly salute every Chinese military man and woman who participated. From 1931-1945, the brutal behavior of Japanese and its inhuman atrocities were worse than wild beasts and deserve ten atomic bombs in recompense. Even today Japanese government and leaders do not admit and repent of their war crimes, they worship executed war criminals as their national heroes and living gods. Japan never apologizes and pays compensation for killing 35 million Chinese, made hundreds of thousands sex slaves, millions of labor slaves and untold atrocities. Never again will China be oppressed. I am sure the militant Japan is deterred, but America is on the wrong side of history. Thank God it did not rain.

The mayors of Los Angeles, Washington, D.C. and Chicago are for crooks and criminals, they must be dismissed and deported. All the facts point to the need, Ukraine must be destroyed and its leader executed in order to end the war. Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis are terrorists and the countries that harbor them must be destroyed all together.

Since Gaza, West Bank, etc. are the Jewish lands, Palestinians must evacuate from all Jewish lands and flee to Arab lands where they are safe to receive international aid and build a Palestinian state of their choice.

The leader of Ukraine is corrupt and evil. Ukrainians are stupid to follow the path of destruction. He was the one who instigated war with Russia. Now he asks for security guarantees. The nincompoop should be executed to end the war.

Palestinians, Africans, and others serve as example of peoples who want to eat and do not want to work. UN, WHO, EU, etc. champion their cause. Palestinians do not want evacuate from Gaza, Jewish lands to resettle in Arab lands. Because they will lose their status as refugees where they can get their food, fuel, water, medicine and everything for free from international community. These problems multiply with the passage of time.

UN, EU, GERMANY, UK, FRANCE, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZELAND, ETC. are strange and unreasonable peoples. Who is stopping Palestinians to build a Palestinian state in an Arab land? It is wrong and illegal to build a Palestinian state in Jewish land (Gaza, West Bank, etc.). That is the cause of conflict.

The fact that National Guards have to patrol Washington, D.C. with weapons speaks loudly and badly of the capital. The mayor of Washington, D.C. should be dismissed and deported. All the more urgent the national capital should move to Lincoln, Nebraska, without delay.

The mayor of Washington, D.C. bowed to the illegal acts of street people who set up tents on public streets. She should be dismissed and deported. The National Guards are empowered to trash the tents, clear the streets and vanish street people. Los Angeles is a disgraced city because the California Governor and Los Angeles mayor failed to solve the problems of street people who not only set up tents on public streets, but also urinate and defecate. All the more urgent for the national capital to move to Lincoln, Nebraska. In the face of national debt exceeding $37 trillion, the people can save money by abolishing the House, retain the unicameral legislation of Senate to move also to Lincoln Nebraska. All this can be accomplished legally by a national referendum. America is ruined by dark and evil forces.

Heroes of all races who sacrificed their lives for China in the war against Japanese aggression should be celebrated and remembered. The descendants of them are eternal friends of China. Descendants of American Flying Tiers whose forefathers had sacrificed their lives in the war against Japanese aggression and atrocities must always be honored and remembered. The Chinese government must treat them as eternal friends, and they are welcome to China anytime. Such blood bonds must be appreciated and maintained forever.

The world wrongly marks the anniversary of dropping atomic bomb on Hiroshima while neglecting the Japanese aggression and atrocities of killing 35 million innocent Chinese without remorse or reparations. UN overappointed unqualified blacks and media have given too much coverage to unworthy black spoke-persons. It is amazing no matter how beautifully white organizations and individuals hail human rights, civil rights, democracy, development, technology, benefits, justice, etc., what they are actually after is MONEY. This can be said equally true about blacks.

Pet economy is wasted economy. Money should better be spent on nutrition and education of children and orphans. In cities all dogs must have annual license of Y5,000, cats Y4,000, and birds Y3,000. It is exempt for rural areas. If a dog defecates in public place, it shall be fined Y3,000 plus cleanup by owner or walker.

Global media highlight the number of Palestinians who have died, but fail to consider why Palestinian Authority and Palestinians do not want to evacuate from Jewish land and resettle in Arab land. Palestinians, men and women, young and old, are shameless beggars. They remain in Gaza to qualify for refugees so that they can get everything free from international community. The international community is ignorant of the fact that GAZA and related territories all belong to the Jews. Israel has every right to take back and take over Gaza and related territories. Palestinians must evacuate and relocate to Arab lands, make a living and establish its own Palestinian state without further delay.

French nincompoop Macron recognized Palestine as a state but failed to know that Palestine does not have territory and sovereignty. Leaders of UK, GERMANY, AUSTRLALIA would commit the same mistake by supporting terrorists. Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis are wicked terrorists, they should be destroyed without mercy. Leaders of Palestinian Authority are guilty for the death and malnutrition of children because they lead Palestinians to the path of destruction. They could have led Palestinians to lands of Arabs to earn a living and build their own Palestinian state. Palestinians (young & old, man & woman) are most shameless beggars for food & water, they don’t want to go to an Arab land to earn a living and build their own Palestinian state. Africa amid famine has the most fat people in the world, they are also shameless beggars. Ukrainians are shameless beggars for weapons, they do not have reason for existence. Harvard though the richest university in the world is a shameless beggar for US aid. Japan claims to practice democracy, its ruling party lost election miserably, yet its prime minister shamelessly wants to stay in power. The world must realize years of aid to Africa produced nothing, trillions of dollars went to black holes.  Africa is corrupt, unmotivated and useless. Black leaders and politicians take advantage of it; dress well, eat well, and live a luxurious life style. Black problems can be solved only by Blacks. Let Africa alone to survive on its own. Blacks create most of the problems in the world, given too much coverage and platform in world media, overappointed and given too many spokespersons and positions in UN. Any nation who shares destiny with Africa will be doomed. Nothing good comes out of Africa: primitive religion, superstition, spiritism, orgies, black magic, tribalism, voodooism.

If the Texas flooding is an act of God; Ukraine conflict, and conflicts of Hamas, Hezbollah, and Houthis must be acts of the devil.

India must coexist with China, at the same time India and South Africa must be expelled from BRICS besause they do not remain true to BRICS’ founding mission, they do not belong, must be replaced by Indonesia and Saudi Arabia. US and EU must not rearm Ukraine, let Russia destroy it, and never to be rebuilt. The leader of Ukraine must also be executed.

Palestinian Authorities are guilty for leading Palestinians to a path of death, children died and suffer malnutrition.  Palestian Authorities do not lead Palestinians (who are Arabs) to a land of Arabs to work for a living and build the Palestinian state.

American forces have successfully wiped out three Iranian nuclear sites through B-2 bombers. The “everlasting consequence” is Iran cannot be a nuclear threat anymore. I stand with the overwhelming majority of Dutch people to demolish NATO — the war machine.

EUROPEAN Nations that recognize statehood of Palestine should take Palestinians in and give them aid of all kinds free.

Ukraine nincompoop wants to use USA to fight against Russia. US must ditch Ukraine, EU and abolish NATO. EU alliance has proven meaningless. America must not guarantee security for any nation. International community, knowingly or unknowingly, is greatly mistaken. Gaza does not belong to Palestinians. Gaza belongs to Israeli. Palestinians are originally Arabs who invaded Palestine under British rule. It is good and right for Palestinians to relocate permanently in lands of Arabs to establish a Palestinian State of their own.

Hamas who killed hostages must be killed. Hamas who mistreated hostages must be punished.

Palestinians do not have homeland. Gaza, West Bank, Golan Heights, etc. belong to the Jews. It is good and right that Palestinians be resettled permanently in any Arab land to build a Palestinian State of their own.

Palestinians must be evacuated from the Jewish lands and resettle permanently in Arab lands to build their own Palestinian state.  Hamas, Hezbollah and  Houthis are terrorists to be destroyed completely. That is the only way to peace.

The world intentionally believes in a lie. Palestinians are originally Arabs who surreptitiously moved to Israel without pay under the British colony called Palestine. Arabs bred like rabbits and called themselves Palestinians. It is most reasonable for Arabs to move to lands of Arabs. For Palestinians do not have claim or resettlement right in the Jewish land of Gaza, West Bank, etc. No one would object for Palestinians to build a Palestinian state  in lands of Arabs, but Palestinians cannot build a Palestinian state in the Jewish land. Palestinians prefer to be called refugees in order to receive international aid every thing for free. Palestinians must move out or be removed from the Jewish land. TERRORISTS HAMAS, Hezbollah and Houthis MUST be destroyed completely.

Some fools believe and practice martial arts, boxing, violence, sports such as foot ball to save impoverished and backward nations. The truth is only hard work, being good farmers, herdsmen, fishermen, teachnicians, repairmen, engineers can save poor, undeveloped and backward nations.

There has been undeclared war in the southern border between Mexico and America, which has been neglected by previous American administrations. Mexico flagrantly serves as the open conduit for illegal migrants to enter California and crossing the river to enter Texas. The US must bomb Mexico City to warn them there can not be business as usual; in particular Mexico rejected American airplanes which carried deported illegal migrants to land. America must use its powerful military and National Guards to patrol the borders 24 hours. Fire and shoot at unlawful migrants who climb the wall; who try to destroy the wall; who do graffiti on the wall; who congregate within 100 feet of the wall; who cross the river; who cut the wire to deter the invasion. America declares to REJECT all asylum applicants for 100 years. No humanitarian aid shall be given to any unlawful migrants. In addition to American troops, state National guards must also be used to end the unlawful migrants invasion of America. They are despicable and deplorable peoples who fail in their countries and dream of entering America to live happily and doing nothing on welfare.  Immigration Officers must raid Los Angeles, East Los Angeles, San Bernardino,  Santa Ana, San Diego, Miami, etc. — dens of illegal aliens; the Welfare Department has their names and addressees.

Palestinians are also useless, shameless and worthless peoples to loot and rob international aid trucks. They are violent and unproductive. Leaders and politicians of Palestinian Authority lead them to the path of destruction by illegally occupying the Jewish lands. They do not want to go to the Arab lands to build their Palestinian state. They rather stay in Jewish lands in order to receive aid for nothing. No aid should enter to help Palestinians.

Hamas should be held responsible for killing hostages and be punished. The UN chief, Arab, Islamic, Black, EU nations speak and support terrorists should be gone. All UN high-paid officials should be replaced; and UN to be reformed in 100 days. It is a false peace. Gaza, West Bank, Golan Heights, Rafah, etc. are Jewish lands.  UN, WHO, Arab-Muslim-Black nations and Palestinian Authority speaks and supports terrorists Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis without making any demand. Palestinians do not have homeland in Jewish lands. They must evacuate from Jewish lands and go to lands of Arab to build a Palestinian state.  That would be true peace but they do not want peace.

China generously aided more than 100 nations, while their politicians and leaders practice corruption and looting of national treasures, their unproductive people sing and dance, drink alcohol and produce many children they cannot support.

CHINA is the most unusual nation on earth. The craftsmen or artisans of Tang, Sung, Yuan, Ming, Qing dynasties created untold and immense treasures for China.  Western nations like Britain, US, France, Germany, Italy, Russia, Austria-Hungary, and Japan (8-nation alliance) attacked, burned, robbed and stole and looted China national treasures at market value of more than US$100,000 trillion dollars. It is better to return them to China now, not wait until China makes demands by military force. Shame on Western nations who claim or pretend to be Christian. For the last 500 years, the manifest evils of the West are imperialism, colonialism and capitalism.

Today Chinese rescue workers respond to any natural disaster, the speed and service they built tents and houses unmatched by any nation. The American homeless people would rejoice just to have the Chinese tents. China must not waste its resources on the lazy people and unproductive peoples who eat and get fat, drink alcohol, sing and dance, have sex and produce many unwanted children they cannot support; like to play, enjoy games and sports but dislike hard work and discipline; cannot even produce food and basic necessities.

Xizang earthquake demonstrates what the Chinese government cares and does for its people. What does the U.S. government do for Californians in Los Angeles wildfires? The world must know the truth.

Japan intends to swallow up the United States Steel in order to control the American economy. This should be an eye-opener to the U.S. government that Japan is not a genuine ally. The US government made a  big mistake in rearming Japan. Singapore and Malaysia are wise to establish a special economic zone. Many underdeveloped nations fool China in holding one-China policy. By doing so they think they deserve China’s economic and financial aid. India has conflict of interest in Bricks, it is better to withdraw and  Indonesia is wise to join Bricks.

Leaders and politicians of Palestinians are evil and guilty because they lead Palestinians to the path of death and destruction through illegal occupation of the Jewish land and support of the terrorists. They give false hope to Palestinians in so-called “two-state solutions”. Palestinians are Arabs, no one would object to Palestinians building a Palestinian state in an Arab land. When Palestinians want to build a Palestinian state in the Jewish land, that is the cause of conflict. Palestinians speak and support terrorists Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis. Palestine leaders and politicians should evacuate all Palestinians from the land of the Jews and go to Arab lands to build a Palestinian state. That would be peace.

The Internet is a cesspool of corruption, fraud and iniquity. No nation polices and punishes their wrongdoings. Money making individuals and institutions would invade your computer to push their products even rejected. Many famous American universities and institutions are selling their fraudulent products for incurable problems. Many individuals and institutions claim to be Christian and shamelessly and aggressively ask for donations. Many sell famous works in public domain through subscriptions and purchases. Many distort and pervert the Word of God but ask for donations.

Any nation which restricts, bans, or interferes with China’s activities is illegal and unlawful. China can do anything within its sovereignty that does not violate the international law.

To appease the fury and wrath of South Koreans, the impeached Yoon and all those who blocked his arrest shall be executed once and for all.  Maybe Yoon should experience the 4-horse treatment. South Korea is the nation the world should not be: all incompetent, chaotic and useless.

Henceforth beginning 2025 all undeveloped nations must work, discipline and be responsible to produce their own food and other necessities; all international aid will be terminated beginning November 2025. Undeveloped nations cannot do as usual in dancing, singing, drinking and sporting, have sex and produce many unwanted children they cannot support. They must work hard to support and save themselves. Based on the Biblical principle, 2Th 3:10, “For even when we were with you, we used to give you this order: if anyone is not willing to work, then he is not to eat, either.

China has aided more than 100 nations costing hundreds of $ billions. Tell the truth, which nation has expressed act of gratitude? Won’t it better to spend on internal improvement or buying gold?

THE WEST (US, BRITAIN, CANADA, EU) BEING EVIL AND FOUND GUILTY OF SANCTIONING CHINA ALL BECAUSE THEY COVET XINJIANG AND XICHANG AND HONG KONG, USE TAIWAN AND SOUTH CHINA SEA TO ATTACK CHINA’S SOVEREIGNTY.

On the one hand, some White experts pretend to make good suggestions to improve China economy; they may fool many Chinese, I can see malice, envy and ill will through their awkward faces. On the other hand, Black leaders and politicians play coy and con China to support their development for nothing. China needs to stop all foreign aid for two reasons: China needs to pay down deficits and debts. China must not be fooled and must use its hard-earned meager resources wisely to do the following strategic projects:

  1.  China should have unswerving commitment only to itself. China should not waste money on useless and unworthy undeveloped countries. Not one nation is grateful. Deficits and debts are bad. China cannot save the world, China must save itself.

2 Make deserts green and reduce sand storms.

3.  Repair the Great Walls. Build sea walls around Hainan Island, Shanghai, etc. to prevent climate change that sea water will rise.

4.  Promote night markets in big cities and promote domestic travel to expand the economy. Deficits and debts are bad; fiscal surplus is good.

5.  Execute crooks and criminals who defraud through Telecom and Internet of more than ONE million yuan. IT is not known who polices the rampant international crooks and criminals who defraud the public by famous American universities and institutions who sell high-priced fake drugs such as to cure knee pain and prevent knee surgery and ear ringing, etc.  Sweep clean fraudulent commercials on TV and the Internet.

6.  Execute crooks and criminals who defraud in foreign nations and do not bring them home. Faces and names of deceivers must be published on TV to shame them and their families.

7.  Increase and strengthen the development and deployment of nuclear weapons for self-defence.

8.  Streamline and reduce national and local government debts and deficits.

9.  Train 5 million doctors, dentists, nurses, teachers, professors and MANAGERS, machinists in the next 5 years.

10.  Assist the poor Chinese in the rural areas first.

11.  Improve mechanized agriculture, and upgrade technology in every field.

12.  Streamline management of central and local governments.

13.  Enforce laws to reduce the number of criminal individuals and organizations in many areas.

14.  Execute crooks and criminals who create rumors and conduct espionage that harm national security.

15.  Reorganize personnel of CGTN and restructure its programs.

16.  Protect the environment and punish severely individuals and organizations who dump industrial waste and toxic materials on lands, soils, water ways, lakes and rivers, and seas.

17.  Remove all fraudulent commercials and fake advertisements from TV and Internet and punish the culprits severely. Violent gaming produces violent culture. Violent culture destroys any nation.

18.  Make it easy for Overseas Chinese to come to China and make their investments.

19.  Reward universities that earn and win NOBEL prizes.

20.  Conduct ditching and dredging of lakes and rivers to prevent flooding before extreme weather.

21.  Innovate and increase therapeutic and pharmaceutical capabilities to produce various vaccines and preventive medicines.

22.  Regulate foreign hospitals and clinics in China to prohibit monopoly and prevent high costs of healthcare.

23.  Bargain down whole sale price with foreign drug companies to import effective foreign drugs to benefit Chinese consumers.

24.  Subsidize elderly apartment renting by 30%, if elderly live with their children, their monthly mortgage will reduce also by 30%.

25.  Severely punish companies that manufacture fake or low quality products.

26.  The world must condemn the phony currency called Bitcoin and China should not fall into the financial trap.

27.  Execute individuals and organizations that rob ancient cemeteries or tombs to sell precious national treasures.

28. Regulate foreign hospitals and clinics in China to prohibit monopoly and prevent high costs of healthcare.

29. Bargain down whole sale price with foreign drug companies to import effective foreign drugs to benefit Chinese consumers.

30. The world must condemn the phony currency called Bitcoin and China should not fall into the financial trap.

31. Mandate providing access to elderly and invalid wheelchairs.

32.  Execute individuals and organizations that rob ancient cemeteries or tombs to sell precious national treasures.

33.  Prohibit anyone to smoke on TV or in movies. Reduce individual gun violence except in war movies.

34.  Execute Hong Kong residents who commit treason or to be exiled permanently. Hong Kong is fortunate to have food, fuel and water, etc. provided by Mainland China. Hong Kong should start de-Biritishization by changing all English street names, for example Victoria Peak should be replaced by Deng Xiaoping Peak.

35.  No one speaks Portuguese except Portugal and Brazil. Macao should not hamstring its residents, but replace Portuguese with the English language the sooner the better.

36.  Increase, innovate, and modernize public and private toilet facilities.

37.  Punish severely those who violate smoking and drinking on buildings, trains, ferries, and airplanes; the third violation deserves to be executed.

38.  China needs to make Christmas a national holiday to facilitate the big Christmas business in China.

39.  Execute leading organized criminals, attack every form of terror, and destroy vigorous lawlessness.

40.  Penalize severely those who have licenses but do not know how to drive or violate traffic rules and regulations on purpose.

41.  To deter and  destroy corruption, China needs to execute any officer who commits corruption of more than CNY one million.

42.  Execute anyone who counterfeits money and seize all his/her assets.

43.  Rebuild the Old Summer Palace, Yuanmingyuan Park ( 圆明园) which was burned down and destroyed by aggressive and intrusive 8-nation-troops; and DEMAND them reparations now through diplomacy or later by military force.

44.  Use force to liberate Taiwan and execute traitorous leaders of the People’s Progressive Party (民進黨) publicly.

How to solve global hunger and poverty? There are nations and peoples who deserve to suffer hunger and poverty. For example, Palestinians do not want to go to lands of Arab to build a Palestinian state of their own. They would rather be in the Jewish land and label as refugees so that they can receive international aid for free. There are undeveloped nations and peoples whose leaders and politicians are corrupt, and the peoples are lazy and unproductive; they eat and get fat, sing and dance, drink beer and have sex, produce many children they cannot support. They like the way of life so that they can beg and receive aid freely. These nations will remain poor and suffer  hunger in worse situation a hundred years from now!

*ANYONE & EVERYONE

*Our mission is to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ absolutely free. We do not want donation. We only want you to know the truth. 

This article is written to let you know, God does not discriminate anybody, and wants everybody to repent of their sins and believe in Jesus Christ and be saved.

I want you to know that everything I write, teach, explain and proclaim are according to the texts of Scriptures, the Word of God, not for financial gain because it is free to all. I do not disseminate my words to replace the Word of God. Theologians are different, they enjoy to transmogrify the Holy Bible, and they routinely practice to pontificate their own theories for vain glory. Examples are John Calvin, Karl Barth, etc. I do not value the faulty opinions of men. For that reason I accept only Biblical Theology — theology based on the interpretations of the Holy Bible itself. I do not want to waste my life and time to expose the errors, faults, and mistakes of many theologians. Even the greatest theologian had some flaws and faults. I only want to preach the Truth in Christ Jesus.

I agree with Roger Bacon who said, “There are in fact four very significant stumbling blocks in the way of grasping the truth, which hinder every man however learned, and scarcely allow anyone to win a clear title to wisdom, namely, the example of weak and unworthy authority, longstanding custom, the feeling of the ignorant crowd, and the hiding of our own ignorance while making a display of our apparent knowledge.

In my lifetime I have discovered many writings and works of theologians are full of “imaginations and speculations.” To my surprise Martin Luther (1524) who lived about 500 years ago had the same opinion.

  I. ANYONE

According to https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/

The definition of anyone:

anyone

pronoun

any·one | \ ˈe-nē-(ˌ)wən  \

Definition of anyone

: any person at all

Anyone=Anybody

Jdg 4:20“Stand at the door of the tent,” he told her. “If anybody comes and asks you if there is anyone here, say no.”

NOTE: Anybody in Hebrew is ‘îš which means any; whosoever; any person; some one; every one; – which occurs 2,184 times in the Old Testament.

Gen 19:12, “The men said to Lot, “Do you have anybody else here? Sons-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whoever you have in the city, bring them out of the place.”

You see the Bible interprets itself. 

Mar 1:44, “and said to him, “See you say nothing to anybody, but go show yourself to the Kohen, and offer for your cleansing the things which Moshe commanded, for a testimony to them.”

NOTE: Anybody in Greek is mēdeis which means nobody; no one; – which occurs 91 times in the New Testament.

Luk 19:8, “But Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord! Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated

anybody out of anything, I will pay back four times the amount.”

Zacchaeus serves as an example that faith brings fruits of repentance. Boy, you know how much Washington-Wall Street-Hollywood have cheated?

Do you know how much military-industrial-security complex have cheated?

Act 19:38, “If, then, Demetrius and his fellow craftsmen have a grievance against anybody, the courts are open and there are proconsuls. They can press charges.”

It appears to me the old justice is better than so many countries which claim to be democratic.

Gal 1:9, “As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God’s curse!”
If anybody is preaching another gospel, let them be under God’s curse! Do you know politico-social gospel is a false gospel? Do you know prosperity gospel is a false gospel? Do you know so-called liberation gospel is a false gospel? Do you know that anybody who denies the divinity of Jesus Christ preaches a false gospel? Do you know anybody who preaches that good work deserves salvation is a false gospel? Do you know anybody who preaches a false gospel is under God’s curse?

1Th 4:12, “so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.”

1Jo 2:1, “My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One.”

A believer who is dependent on anybody cannot win the respect of outsiders which means unbelievers.

Jesus Christ is the Savior for sinners, He is also the Mediator between God and men.

2Ti 3:7, “who will listen to anybody and can never arrive at a knowledge of the truth.

We listen to somebody so that we can arrive at a knowledge of the truth. You can listen to such men like Martin Luther, John Bunyan, Blaise Pascal.

Gen 13:16, “I will make your descendants as plentiful as the dust of the earth, so that if anyone can count

the dust of the earth, then your descendants could also be counted.”

Note: Anyone in Hebrew is ‘îš which means any man; whosoever; anybody; each; everyone; – which occurs 2,184 times in the Old Testament

Lev 4:27, “Now if anyone of the common people sins

unintentionally by doing any of the things which the LORD has commanded not to be done, and becomes

guilty.”

If anyone sins unintentionally, he becomes guilty.

Lev 24:15“You shall also speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘If anyone curses his God, then he will bear the responsibility for his sin.”

If anyone curse his God, he will bear the responsibility for his sin.

Num 35:30, “If anyone kills a person, the murderer

shall be put to death on the testimony of witnesses, but no person shall be put to death on the testimony of only one witness.”

Deu 22:8, “When you build a new house, you shall make a parapet for your roof, so that you will not bring guilt for bloodshed on your house if anyone

falls from it.”

When a company builds a structure or building that collapses, the government has responsibility to make the company liable and responsible.

Deu 32:39, “See now that I, I am He,
And there is no god besides Me;
It is I who put to death and give life.
I have wounded and it is I who heal,
And there is no one who can save anyone from My hand.”

There is no one who can save anyone from the hand of God.

Jos 2:19“And it shall come about that anyone

who goes out of the doors of your house outside will have his blood on his own head, and we will be innocent; but anyone who is with you in the house, his blood will be on our head if a hand is laid on him.”

Jos 23:7, “so that you will not associate with these nations, these which remain with you, or mention the name of their gods, or make anyone

swear by them, or serve them, or bow down to them.”

Do you know it is wrong even to mention the name of false gods?

Jdg 4:20, “And he said to her, “Stand in the doorway of the tent, and it shall be if anyone

comes and inquires of you, and says, ‘Is there anyone here?’ that you shall say, ‘No.’”

You do not have obligation to give out information to unconcerned persons. You can protect your private data.

Jdg 18:7, “So the five men departed and came to Laish, and saw the people who were in it living in security, in the way of the Sidonians, quiet and unsuspecting; for there was no oppressive ruler

humiliating them for anything in the land, and they were far from the Sidonians and had no dealings

with anyone.

Where can you find no oppressive ruler?

Jdg 18:28, “And there was no one to save them,

because it was far from Sidon and they had no

dealings with anyone, and it was in the valley which

is near Beth-rehob. So they rebuilt the city and lived in it.”

Nowadays it is impossible for a people to have no dealings with anyone. The warmonger will find you.

Jdg 21:5, “Then the sons of Israel said, “Who is there among all the tribes of Israel who did not go up to the LORD in the assembly?” For they had taken a solemn oath concerning anyone who did not

go up to the LORD at Mizpah, saying, “He shall certainly be put to death.”

Do not lightly make a solemn oath because it has consequences.

1Sa 25:29“Should anyone rise up to pursue you and to seek your life, then the life of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of the living with the LORD your God; but the lives of your enemies He will sling out

as from the hollow of a sling.

I am not a Hebrew scholar. But I believe the above two statements are Hebrew idioms: the life be bound in the bundle of the living with the Lord; and the lives of enemies He will sling out as from the hollow of a sling.

1Sa 26:12, “So David took the spear and the jug of water that were at Saul’s head, and they left; and no one saw or knew about it, nor did anyone awaken, for they were all asleep, because a deep sleep from the LORD had fallen on them.”

It is no big thing but the Lord can cause a deep sleep to fall on someone or someones.

2Sa 9:1, “Then David said, “Is there anyone still

left of the house of Saul, so that I could show him kindness for Jonathan’s sake?”

1Ki 16:4Anyone belonging to Baasha who dies in the city, the dogs will eat; and anyone belonging to him who dies in the field, the birds of the sky will eat.”

Anyone belonging to Baasha will die a horrible death whether in the city or in the field.

Ezr 7:25“And you, Ezra, according to the wisdom of your God which is in your hand, appoint magistrates and judges so that they may judge all the people who are in the province beyond the Euphrates River, that is, all those who know the laws of your God; and you may teach anyone who is ignorant of them.”

The Word of God must be taught to all, especially those who are ignorant of them. For that reason I teach the Word of God absolutely free to all.

Job 21:22“Can anyone teach God knowledge,
In that He judges those on high?”

That is the problem of the age of science, people become presumptuous to think they know more than God–they want to teach God knowledge.

The answer is no. No one can teach God knowledge. For God knows everything and remembers everything. He is the God who created innumerable (countless) stars and gives names to each star and remembers it. There is no limitation on the knowledge of God just as there is no limitation on the power of God. God is both OMNISCIENT and OMNIPOTENT.

Job 36:5“Behold, God is mighty but does not reject anyone; He is mighty in strength of understanding.”

The Mighty God does not reject anyone; so a well-known theologian was wrong in his teaching of predestination.

Psa 53:2, “God has looked down from Heaven upon the sons of mankind to see if there is anyone who

understands, who seeks after God.”

God is looking if you are seeking after God.

Eze 18:32“For I take no pleasure in the death of

anyone who dies,” declares the Lord GOD. “Therefore, repent and live!”

God is not interested in your death, God wants everyone to repent and live.

Job 25:4“How then can mankind be righteous with God? Or how can anyone who is born of woman be

pure?”

The answer is:

Gal 2:16, “nevertheless, knowing that a person is not

justified by works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by faith in Christ 

and not by works of the Law; since by works of the Law no flesh will be justified.”

Rom 5:8-9, “But God demonstrates His own love

toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him.”

Justified by His blood means because Jesus died for us, His righteousness becomes our righteousness, so that we are saved from the wrath of God through Him.  1Pe 1:2, “chosen and destined by God the Father and sanctified by the Spirit for obedience to Jesus Christ and for sprinkling with his blood: May grace and peace be multiplied to you.” A lot of believers do not know that you need the Spirit of the Lord to prove you belong to the Lord. Without the Holy Spirit in you, you cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

Rom 10:9-10, “that if you confess with your mouth

Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;

for with the heart a person believes, resulting in

righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses,

resulting in salvation.”

Even you confess with your mouth and believe in your heart, the proof of your salvation is still the Holy Spirit.  Rom 8:16, “The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God.” Do you know the Spirit testifies with your spirit that you are a child of God?

Mat 5:40, “And if anyone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak also.

Mat 11:27, “All things have been handed over to Me by My Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father; nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son determines to reveal Him.”

Except the Father, no one is higher than the Son. The Son has the power to determine to whom to reveal the Father.

Mat 13:19, “When anyone hears the Word of the Kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is the one sown with seed beside the road.”

The evil one who is the devil comes and snatches away the Word of the Kingdom which has been sown in the heart. This explains why some people simply reject the Word of God.

Mat 16:24, “Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If

anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny

himself, take up his cross, and follow Me.”

It does not cost you anything to be saved. But to come after Jesus (to be His disciple), you must deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Jesus.

Mat 22:16, “And they sent their disciples to Him, along with the Herodians, saying, “Teacher, we know that You are truthful and teach the way of God in truth, and do not care what anyone thinks; for You are not partial to anyone.”

A preacher should imitate Jesus, teaching the way of God in truth, and do not care what anyone thinks.

Mat 23:9“And do not call anyone on earth your father; for only One is your Father, He who is in Heaven.”

The Roman Catholic Church is guilty of so many fathers. We have only One Father who is in Heaven.

Mar 4:23, “If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”

The problem of the world is the fact people do not hear the Word of God. Or rather, they do not want to hear the Word of God.

Mar 8:34, “And He summoned the crowd together

with His disciples, and said to them, “If anyone wants

to come after Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me.”

To follow Jesus means to deny oneself, take up one’s cross and follow Him.

Mar 9:35, “And sitting down, He called the twelve and said to them, “If anyone wants to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all.”

If anyone wants to be the leader, he shall be last of all and servant of all. The West has a big lie to call leaders and politicians “public servants.”

Mar 11:16, “and He would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple grounds.”

Today there are many preachers who merchandise the Gospel through the churches and many more who merchandise the God through the media and the Internet.

Mar 11:25“And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father who is in Heaven will also forgive you for your offenses.”

Christians are to forgive anyone just as the Father forgives our offenses.

Luk 3:14, “And soldiers also were questioning him, saying, “What are we to do, we as well?” And he said to them, “Do not extort money from anyone, nor harass anyone, and be content with your wages.”

Not only soldiers, officials must not extort money from anyone. If all obey God, there could not be police brutality or corruption.

Luk 14:26“If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple.”

To be disciple of Jesus means to put Christ as first and supreme, more important than your own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, sisters, even your own life.

Jhn 2:25, “and because He did not need anyone to testify about mankind, for He Himself knew what was in mankind.”

Jesus knows all mankind, all our secrets and secrets of nations.

Jhn 5:22“For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son.”

Jesus is the Judge of the living and the dead.

Jhn 6:46“Not that anyone has seen the Father, except the One who is from God; He has seen the Father.”

Only Jesus Christ has seen the Father.

Jhn 7:17“If anyone is willing to do His will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is of God, or I am speaking from Myself.”

If you are willing to do the will of God, you will know about the teaching of God. Because people are unwilling, they make all kinds of excuse.

Jhn 8:51“Truly, truly I say to you, if anyone follows

My Word, he will never see death.”

If anyone follows the Word of Jesus, he will never see death.

Jhn 9:32“Since the beginning of time it has never been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a person born blind.”

Since the beginning of time, only Jesus Christ has opened the eyes of a person born blind.

Jhn 10:9“I AM the Door; if anyone enters through 

Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.”

Jesus is the Door to God. Jesus is the Door to Salvation. Jesus is inviting you to come in, anyone means everyone is welcome. If you perish, it is all your fault. If you are saved, it is the gift of God.

Jhn 14:23, “Jesus answered and said to him,

“If anyone loves Me, he will follow My Word; 

and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our dwelling with him.” 

If anyone loves Jesus, he will follow the Word of Jesus. It is not possible to love Jesus but rejects His Word.

Rom 8:9, “However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.”

It does not matter you are born white, have been baptized, participated in the Lord’s Supper, donated money to the church, belonged to a church, engaged in Christian work — if you do not have the Spirit of Christ, you do not belong to Christ. So the Spirit of Christ dwelling in you is the only proof that you have been saved.

Rom 13:8, “Owe nothing to anyone except to love one another; for the one who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the Law.”

Crystal Cathedral went bankrupt because it owed so much money. The Bible teaches to owe nothing to anyone. The one who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the Law.

1Co 3:17“If anyone destroys the temple of God, God will destroy that person; for the temple of God is holy, and that is what you are.”

The temple of God is not a building. The temple of God is holy, and that is what believers are.

1Co 3:18, “Take care that no one deceives himself. If anyone among you thinks that he is wise in this age, he must become foolish, so that he may become wise.”

If anyone among you thinks that he is wise in this age, he must become foolish, so that he may become wise. Do you know philosophers, scientists, theologians and politicians, the rich and powerful think they are wise in this age?

1Co 8:2, “If anyone thinks that he knows anything, he has not yet known as he ought to know.”

No one has known what he ought to know. What anyone ought to know is the knowledge of God, knowledge of the Gospel Truth, knowledge of the way of salvation …

1Co 8:3, “but if anyone loves God, he is known by Him.”

People are so proud because they know the US president.  If anyone loves God, he is known by God.

You maybe world leaders, are you known by God?

1Co 16:22, “If anyone does not love the Lord, he is to be accursed. Maranatha!”

Do you know many church members do not love the Lord. The worst are preachers who love money and do not love the Lord. Maranatha is Greek which means our Lord comes or will come!

2Co 5:17, “Therefore if anyone is in Christ, this person is a new creation; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.”

A new creation means born again. If anyone is in Christ, this person has a new life, a new self.

Gal 1:9, “As we have said before, even now I say again: if anyone is preaching to you a gospel

contrary to what you received, he is to be accursed!”

If anyone is preaching a false gospel, he is to be accursed. There was a famous black preacher who preached a politico-social gospel. Many blacks tried to cover up his sins, but he was an FBI certified immoral person. Even now they try to cover him up. 

Gal 6:3, “For if anyone thinks that he is something

when he is nothing, he deceives himself.” This definition of self-deception by the Word of God is sharp and penetrating. How many think they are something when they are nothing? Do you think world leaders and politicians, theologians, scientists and philosophers, the rich and powerful are nothing?

1Ti 5:8, “But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.”

God views anyone who does not provide for his own household is worse than an unbeliever.

1Ti 6:3-5, “If anyone advocates a different doctrine 

and does not agree with sound words, those of our Lord Jesus Christ, and with the doctrine conforming

to godliness, he is conceited and understands nothing; but he has a sick craving for controversial

questions and disputes about words, from which

come envy, strife, abusive language, evil suspicions,

and constant friction between people of depraved

mind and deprived of the truth, who suppose

that godliness is a means of gain.”

I often wonder why there are so many preachers or pastors who use godliness as a means of gain? People who use godliness as a means of gain are of depraved mind and deprived of the truth.

Jas 1:26, “If anyone thinks himself to be religious, yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his

own heart, this person’s religion is worthless.”

If a religious person does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this person’s religion is worthless.

Jas 3:2, “For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone

does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect

man, able to rein in the whole body as well.”

A perfect man is the one who does not stumble in what he says.

Jas 5:13, “Is anyone among you suffering? Then he must pray. Is anyone cheerful? He is to sing

praises.”

Are you suffering? Pray. Are you cheerful? Sing.

1Pe 4:16, “but if anyone suffers as a Christian, he is not to be ashamed, but is to glorify God in this name.”

Do not be ashamed if you suffer as a Christian.

1Jo 2:15, “Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.”

If anyone loves the world, he cannot love God.

1Jo 3:10, “By this the children of God and the children of the devil are obvious: anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor

the one who does not love his brother and sister.”

The children of God practice righteousness and love his brother and sister. The difference between the children of God and the children of the devil are obvious.

2Jo 1:10, “If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your

house, and do not give him a greeting.”

Do not receive anyone who does not bring this teaching into your house and do not give him a greeting, a hello or hai.

Rev 3:20, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me.”

Look, Jesus is standing at the door of your heart and knocks, if anyone hears His voice and opens the door, Jesus will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Jesus Christ.

II. EVERYONE

According to https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/

The definition of everyone:

everyone

pronoun

ev·ery·one | \ ˈev-rē-(ˌ)wən  \

Definition of everyone

: every person : EVERYBODY

Gen 21:6, “Sarah said, “God has made laughter for me; everyone who hears will laugh with me.”

Won’t you laugh with Sarah when God made a ninety years old woman to give birth to a child to her husband who was a man a hundred years old?

Gen 45:1, “Then Joseph could not control himself in front of everyone standing before him, and he shouted, “Have everyone leave me!” So there was no one with him when Joseph made himself known

to his brothers.”

After that many years of separation, Joseph could not control himself in front of everyone standing before him, so he wanted no one with him when he made himself known to his brothers.

Exo 9:20, “Everyone among the servants of Pharaoh

who feared the Word of the LORD hurried to bring

his servants and his livestock into the houses.”

Why? Because the Lord sent thunder and hail, and fire ran down to the earth. And the LORD rained

hail on the land of Egypt. So there was hail, and fire flashing intermittently in the midst of the hail,

which was very heavy, such as had not occurred in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation. The hail struck everything that was in the field through all the land of Egypt, from people to animals; the hail also struck every plant of the field, and shattered

every tree of the field.”

Those who did not fear the Word of the Lord suffered greatly.

Exo 35:21, “And everyone whose heart stirred him and everyone whose spirit moved him came and

brought the LORD’S contribution for the work of the tent of meeting and for all its service, and for the holy garments.”

In the Old Testament, the Jews freely contributed for the Lord’s work in tent, all its service, and for the holy garments. In the New Testament, Christians whose heart stirred him to contribute for the Lord’s work in preaching the Gospel, but do not make the false preachers rich.

Num 24:9, “He crouches, he lies down like a lion,
and like a lioness, who dares to rouse him?
Blessed is everyone who blesses you, and cursed is

everyone who curses you.”

The Scriptures cited above describes Israel.

Recently the wicked Australia rescinds recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. This is to bring curse to Australia, and cursed is everyone who curses Israel.

Deu 24:16“Fathers shall not be put to death

for their sons, nor shall sons be put to death

for their fathers; everyone shall be put to death for his own sin alone.”

This is absolute truth: Everyone shall be put to death for his own sin alone.

Jdg 17:6, “In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.”

There is federal law that requires every bank in America to do financial reporting and sends monthly statements to its customers. Nowadays the rich and powerful do not obey the law. A certain American bank deliberately does not send monthly statements to its customers. Why? The bank charges $5 for each monthly statement requested. I had to pay $35 for January-July monthly statements which was compulsory and free before. The paid seven-month statements were received. However, the bank withholds sending all other free monthly statement of August, September and October, etc. This is how banks can rob and steal from their customers. In this way the customer cannot know for sure how much is the balance of his bank account. Without the monthly statement, the customer has no way of knowing whether the bank has deposited his Social Security income and pensions or not. The customer complaints to the authorities, but to no avail. In these days America becomes a lawless nation, the rich and powerful do what is right in their own eyes with immunity.

Psa 128:1, “A Song of Ascents.
Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD,
who walks in His ways.”

This is an absolute truth: Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord, who walks in His ways. How do you know Western leaders and politicians do not fear the Lord? They do not walk in the way of the Lord.

Ecc 9:3, “This is an evil in everything that is done

under the sun, that there is one fate for everyone. Furthermore, the hearts of the sons of mankind are full of evil, and insanity is in their hearts throughout their lives. Afterward they go to the dead.”

The hearts of the sons of mankind are full of evil, and insanity is in their hearts throughout their lives.

Isa 1:23, “Your rulers are rebels and companions of thieves; everyone loves a bribe and chases after gifts.
They do not obtain justice for the orphan,
nor does the widow’s case come before them.”

How many leaders and politicians are rebels and companions of thieves? They love a bribe and chase after gifts. They do not practice justice.

Isa 2:12, “For the LORD of armies will have a day of reckoning against everyone who is arrogant and

haughty, and against everyone who is lifted up,
that he may be brought low.”

The Lord of armies will have a day of reckoning. When? The Day the Lord Jesus returns to judge the world, the living and the dead.

Jer 6:13“For from the least of them to the greatest of them,
Everyone is greedy for gain,
And from the prophet to the priest
Everyone deals falsely.”

The Scripture cited above aptly describes the present world. Everyone is greedy for gain. Everyone deals falsely. You know I receive so many emails of frauds and phishings and scams in the name of rich and famous.

Jer 8:6“I have listened and heard,
They have spoken what is not right;
No one repented of his wickedness,
Saying, ‘What have I done?’
Everyone turned to his own course,
Like a horse charging into the battle.”

No Western leaders and politicians repented of their wickedness, like a horse charging into the battle.

Mat 5:28, “but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”

This is an absolute truth made by the Lord. No man could pass the test of lust.

Mat 7:8, “For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.”

This is an absolute promise.

Mat 7:21“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but the one who does the will of My Father who is in Heaven will enter.

There are many who calls “Lord, Lord,” but they do not the will of God.

Mat 7:24“Therefore, everyone who hears these 

Words of Mine, and acts on them, will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.”

Wise is the man who acts according to the Words of Jesus.

Mat 7:26“And everyone who hears these Words of Mine, and does not act on them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.”

Everyone who does not act on the Words of Jesus is a foolish man.

Mar 13:13“And you will be hated by everyone

because of My name, but it is the one who has endured to the end who will be saved.”

The price of being a follower of Jesus Christ is to be hated by everyone. The one who has endured to the end will be saved.

Luk 11:4, “And forgive us our sins, for we

ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And do not lead us into temptation.’”

As we ask God to forgive our sins, so we must also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.

Luk 16:16“The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John came; since that time the Gospel of the Kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.”

There is no easy going to the Kingdom of God; everyone is forcing his way into it.

Jhn 3:8“The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know where it is coming from and where it is going; so is everyone who has been born of the Spirit.”

Note: Everyone must be born of the Spirit to qualify for entrance into the Kingdom of God.

Jhn 3:15, “so that everyone who believes will have eternal life in Him.”

Everyone who believes will have eternal life in Christ.

Jhn 3:16“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.”

This is the whole Gospel in one verse. It is clear that God wants everyone who believes in Jesus Christ will not perish. You do not need to worry about that some theologians who said God predetermines some people to go to Hell. God does not predetermine some people to go to Hell, God wants everyone who believes in Christ to have eternal life. The Word of God is clear and settles all questions.

Jhn 3:20“For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light, so that his deeds will not be exposed.”

Everyone who does evil hates the light. You can turn away from evil and come to the Light.

Jhn 6:40“For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day.”

We do not see Jesus now because He is seated at the right hand of the power of God in Heaven, but we believe in Him. This is the will of the Father that  everyone who believes in Jesus Christ will have eternal life. You see those theologians who said God predicted some people to go to Hell are absolutely wrong. This is the will of the Father that everyone who believes in Jesus will have eternal life.

Jhn 6:45“It is written in the Prophets: ‘AND THEY SHALL ALL BE TAUGHT OF GOD.’ Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father, comes to Me.”

Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Jesus Christ.

Jhn 8:34, “Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.”

This is an absolute truth. Everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin. President and prime minister, pimp and prostitute included.

Jhn 11:26, “and everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die. Do you believe this?”

Everyone who believes in Jesus will never die. Do you believe this? I do.

Jhn 18:37, “Therefore Pilate said to Him, “So You are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say correctly that I am a King. For this purpose I have been born, and for this I have come into the world: to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to My voice.”

Jesus is the King of the Jews. When Jesus returns to the earth, He will be the King of kings and Lord of lords. Everyone who is of the truth listens to the voice of Jesus. You do not listen to the voice of Jesus because you are not of the truth. So I do not have a quarrel with anyone who is not of the truth.

Act 2:21‘AND IT SHALL BE THAT EVERYONE WHO

CALLS ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED.’

Why don’t you call on the name of the Lord to save you now?

Act 10:43“All the prophets testify of Him, that through His name everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins.”

The prophets of the Old Testament testify of Jesus.

Through the name of Jesus Christ, everyone who believes in Him received forgiveness of sins. You do not need to go to a Catholic priest to receive forgiveness of sins. All Catholic priests are sinners too.

Rom 1:16, “For I am not ashamed of the Gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.”

I am also not ashamed of the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes.

Rom 10:4, “For Christ is the end of the Law for righteousness to everyone who believes.”

What we could not do in the Law, the Lord Jesus fulfilled the Law for believers. So Christ is the end of the Law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

Gal 3:8-14, “The Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the Gospel

beforehand to Abraham, saying, “ALL THE NATIONS

WILL BE BLESSED IN YOU.”

So then, those who are of faith are blessed with

Abraham, the believer.

For all who are of works of the Law are under a curse; for it is written: “CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO DOES NOT ABIDE BY ALL THE THINGS WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF THE LAW, TO DO THEM.”

Now, that no one is justified by the Law before God is evident; for, “THE RIGHTEOUS ONE WILL LIVE BY FAITH.”

However, the Law is not of faith; on the contrary, “THE PERSON WHO PERFORMS THEM WILL LIVE BY THEM.”

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us—for it is written: “CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO HANGS ON A 

TREE”— in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham would come to the Gentiles, so that we would receive the promise of the Spirit through

faith.”

No one can keep the whole Law, so everyone is cursed. Jesus bears our sins on the cross so we can live by faith.

Gal 3:22, “But the Scripture has confined everyone

under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.”

Confine in Greek is sygkleiō which means to conclude; include; shut up together; inclose; enclose; – which occurs times in the New Testament. The Scripture has included everyone under sin, so that the promise by faith is Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

1Th 5:14, “We urge you, brothers and sisters,

admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with everyone.”

Christians are urged to do four things in this Scripture:

1) . Admonish the unruly.

2) . Encourage the fainthearted.

3) . Help the weak.

4) . Be patient with everyone.

2Ti 2:19, “Nevertheless, the firm foundation of God stands, having this seal: “The Lord knows

those who are His;” and, “Everyone who names the name of the Lord is to keep away from wickedness.”

My website with the aid of Bing.com is invaded by crooks and criminals, parasites and undesirables. I used to worry there are so many fake Willie Wongs with false images. The Lord knows those who are His. Now the fake and phony Willie Wongs only upset me, they are leeches that you cannot get rid off. Whites, Blacks, Yellows, all races, males and females claim to be Willie Wongs, not to count those who try to link to Willie Wong. Everyone who names the name of the Lord is to keep away from wickedness. God will hold liars, deceivers, destroyers, falsifiers and those who make false statements accountable. This will be judgment, no joke.

Heb 2:9, “But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of His suffering death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.”

Jesus died for me, and for you, and tasted death for everyone so that whoever believes in Him may receive eternal life.

Jas 1:19, “You know this, my beloved brothers and sisters. Now everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger.”

Every Christian must be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger.

1Pe 3:15, “but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone

who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, but with gentleness and respect.”

Christians need to defend the Faith to everyone who asks. All my articles in my website can constitute the Christian Faith Library, I give away freely to all brothers and sisters in Christ.

1Jo 2:29, “If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness

also has been born of Him.”

Christians are persons who have been born of God and who practice righteousness.

1Jo 3:3, “And everyone who has this hope set on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.”

Everyone who has this blessed hope set on Jesus purifies himself, just as He is pure.

1Jo 3:4, “Everyone who practices sin also practices

lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness.”

Anyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness.

All those who invade my website practice lawlessness and they are lawless people.

1Jo 3:15, “Everyone who hates his brother or sister is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him.”

This truth many may not know. Hatred is a murder. Everyone who hates his brother or sister is a murderer. No murderer has eternal life.

1Jo 4:7, “Beloved, let’s love one another; for love is from God, and everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.”

An evil religion practices hatred by beheading Christians. Western bloc practices hatred by lying, killing and robbing many nations and peoples.

1Jo 5:1, “Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who

loves the Father loves the child born of Him.”

A Christian believes that Jesus is the Christ (His divinity) has been born of God. Too bad men like Emerson, Tolstoy, etc. did not believe in the divinity of Christ, and so they were not Christians.

Rev 13:8“All who live on the earth will worship

him, everyone whose name has not been written

since the foundation of the world in the Book of Life of the Lamb who has been slaughtered.”

The Dragon (Devil) gave his authority to the Beast,

him here refers to the Beast. Christians are those whose names have been written since the foundation of the world in the Book of Life of the Lamb.

Rev 22:15, “Outside are the dogs, the sorcerers, the sexually immoral persons, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices

lying.”

Outside the Holy City are the dogs, the sorcerers, the sexually immoral persons, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices lying. This does not mean those outside have any access to the Holy City. They are not like the homeless people in Los Angeles. Outside the Holy City refers to Hell which has no access whatsoever. There are no animal dogs or animals in the Holy City. Here the dogs refer to homosexuals, etc. Who can argue against the tons of evidence that Western leaders and politicians, including the US, EU, UK, NATO, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, Japan, etc. and Western mass media who love and practice lying?

Rev 22:18, “I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book.”

False preachers, false teachers, false prophets, theologians and philosophers are guilty of adding their imaginations and speculations to the Word of God.

Christians are insiders, unbelievers are outsiders. For a Christian to win the respect of outsiders, he must be independent.

1Jo 2:1, “My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One.”

Note: Whosoever in Hebrew is kōl  which means whoever; whatsoever; every thing; as many as; all; every one; – which occurs 5,417 times in the Old Testament.

Exo 31:14, “You shall keep the Sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whosoever does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.”

Note: This is an absolute truth for the Jews.

has sinned against Me, him will I blot out of My book.”

It is stupid and fatal to sin against Jehovah. God will blot out the wicked of His book.

This is an absolute truth for the Jews.

Deu 18:12, “for whosoever does these things is an abomination to the LORD. And because of these abominations the LORD your God is driving them out before you.”

pass through the fire, or one who practices witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead.”

Mat 10:33, “But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father who is in Heaven.”

Note: Whosoever in Greek is hostis which means whoever; who; any that; anyone who; whomsoever; as many as; no exact English equivalent; – which occurs 143 times in the New Testament. This is emphatic. No matter who you are, if you deny Jesus Christ before men, Jesus Christ will also deny you before the Father who is in Heaven. This is clear as the day, there is no misunderstanding about it.

Mat 5:32“But I say to you that whosoever divorces his wife for any reason except sexual immorality

causes her to commit adultery; and whosoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery.”

This is an absolute truth set by Jesus Christ. I talked to a white Christian lady that not a few black pastors committed adultery but their black churches covered up for them. The white Christian lady told me that white churches covered up for their white pastors who committed adultery too. No matter white or black pastors who committed adultery, they are no longer qualified to serve, they should voluntarily leave the ministry they dishonored. Or the churches should throw them out.

Mat 5:39, “But I tell you not to resist an evil person. But whosoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also.”

This is one of Jesus’ most famous teaching called Turn the other cheek.

Mat 10:42“And whosoever gives one of these little ones only a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple, assuredly, I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward.”

This is an absolute truth for Christians. Even giving one of little ones a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple shall get the reward.

Mat 12:32“Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whosoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come.”

This is an absolute truth Jesus makes. Anyone who sins against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven. For fame and fortune, a Harvard divinity school female teacher once declared that she found the wife of Jesus. I believe she had sinned against the Holy Spirit.

Mat 12:50, “For whosoever shall do the will of my Father who is in Heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.”

Jesus made this absolute truth. Notice never say Father, for we have only One Father who is in Heaven; do not call anyone father. Catholics have many fathers.
Mat 18:4, “Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.”

Funny thing about humility: if you think you are humble enough, you are just not humble at all.

Mat 23:12, “And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled; and whosoever shall humble himself shall be exalted.”

Western leaders and politicians are so arrogant and exalted that they sanction and sanction any country because they think they have money and power.

Mar 8:35, “For whosoever would save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the Gospel’s shall save it.”

Western leaders and politicians think they save their lives and countries because they dominate the world.

Whosoever loses his life for the sake of Jesus and the Gospel shall have it.

Mar 8:38, “For whosoever is ashamed of Me and My Words in this adulterous and sinful generation, 

of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels.”

This is an absolute truth. You are pitiful if you are ashamed of Jesus Christ. I am not ashamed of my Lord Jesus and His Words.

Luk 14:27“And whosoever does not bear his cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple.”

Jesus also made this absolute truth. No matter who wants to be Jesus’ disciple, he must bear his cross and follow Jesus.

Jhn 3:16, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

This one verse covers the whole Gospel. God loves you. God sent His only Son Jesus to die on the cross for sinners. Whoever includes you. No matter who believes in Jesus Christ will not perish but have everlasting life. So if you perish, it is only of your own fault.

Jhn 4:14“but whosoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”

Jesus proclaims absolute truth.

Jhn 11:26“And whosoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”

Whoever lives and believes in Jesus shall never die. Do you believe this? Yes, I do.

Jhn 12:46“I have come as Light into the world, that whosoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness.”

Jesus is the Light of the world; whoever believes in Him should not abide in darkness. The fact Western leaders and politicians abide in darkness proves that they have not come to the Light.

Act 2:21, “And it shall be, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

It is true, whoever shall call on the name of the Lord Jesus shall be saved.

Rom 10:13, “for, whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

Remember, whosoever includes you. If you call upon the name of the Lord Jesus, you shall be saved.

Jas 4:4, “Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

Christians do not belong to the world. Whoever wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

1Jo 2:23, “Whosoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

There are some religions that presume to believe in God but deny the Son. Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either.

1Jo 3:10, “In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Whosoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother.”

Western leaders and politicians do not practice righteousness, therefore they are not of God. Not only that they practice lying, killing, and robbing many nations and peoples around the world. According to the Scripture, they are manifest the children of the devil.

1Jo 4:15, “Whosoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.”

Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God has God. I do not quarrel with those who do not believe in the divinity of Christ, I just pity them.

VI.  WHOEVER

According to https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/whosoever

whosoever

pronoun

who·so·ev·er | \ ˌhü-sə-ˈwe-vər  \

Definition of whosoever

WHOEVER

WHOEVER=WHOSOEVER

WHOSOEVER=WHOEVER

Gen 4:15, “So the LORD said to him, “Therefore whoever kills Cain, vengeance will be taken on him seven times as much.” And the LORD placed a mark on Cain, so that no one finding him would kill him.”

Whoever in Hebrew is kōl  which means any one; every one; whosoever; all in the absolute sense; as many as; no matter who; – which occurs 5,417 times in the Old Testament.

Gen 9:6Whoever sheds human blood,
By man his blood shall be shed,
For in the image of God
He made mankind.”

God institutes the capital punishment. Whoever opposed death penalty opposes God. There are some European nations which abolish capital punishment, these nations claim to be Christian nations actually oppose God.

Hos 14:9, “Whoever is wise, let him understand these things;
Whoever is discerning, let him know them.
For the ways of the LORD are right,
And the righteous will walk in them,
But wrongdoers will stumble in them.”

The wise and discerning know the ways of the Lord are right, and the righteous will walk in them. You are not wise if you do not walk in the ways of the Lord.

Mat 5:19“Therefore, whoever nullifies one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least in the Kingdom of Heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.”

Note: The heretics like to quote this Scripture to mislead the people. For example, Christians are never told to keep the Sabbath like the Jews do. 

Rom 14:5-6, “One person values one day over

another, another values every day the same. Each

person must be fully convinced in his own mind. The one who observes the day, observes it for the Lord, and the one who eats, does so with regard to the

Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and the one who does not eat, it is for the Lord that he does not eat, and he gives thanks to God.”

Mat 5:32, “but I say to you that whoever who

divorces his wife, except for the reason of sexual immorality, makes her commit adultery; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.”

This is an ultimate truth that Christ forbids Christians to divorce. Whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery. A divorced man is not qualified to be a pastor.

Mat 5:39, “But I say to you, do not show opposition

against an evil person; but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other toward him also.”

This is the one and only Jesus’ famous teaching, “turn the other check.”

Mat 10:33“But whoever denies Me before people, I will also deny him before My Father who is in Heaven.”

This is an ultimate truth: Whoever denies Jesus before people, Jesus will also deny him before the Father who is in Heaven.

Mat 10:42“And whoever gives one of these little

ones just a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple, truly I say to you, he shall by no meanslose his reward.”

Whosoever gives one of these little one just a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple shall receive his reward.

Mat 16:25“For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.”

This is an absolute truth made by Jesus Christ: For whosoever wants to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for the sake of Jesus will find it.

Mat 23:12, “Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled, and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted.”

This is also an absolute truth: Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled, and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted.

Rom 10:11, “For the Scripture says, “WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE PUT

TO SHAME.”

The Scripture is always right and true: No matter who believes in God will not be put to shame.

Jas 2:10, “For whoever keeps the whole Law, yet stumbles in one point, has become guilty of all.”

For this reason, the Law cannot and does not save. There is no salvation in the Law. No one is able to keep the whole law. All mankind is guilty.

Jas 4:4, “You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.”

Whoever is a friend with the world is an adulteress. Whoever wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

1Jo 2:5, “but whoever follows His Word, in him the love of God has truly been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him.”

By following the Word of Jesus we know that we are in Him.

1Jo 2:23, “Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses the Son has the Father also.”

This is an ultimate truth: Whoever denies the Son does not have the father. There are some religions which pretend to believe in God without the Son. They are lost forever. The one who confesses that Jesus Christ is the Son of God has the Father also.

1Jo 4:15, “Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in him, and he in God.”

This is an ultimate truth: Whoever confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in him, and he is in God. So there are many religions that deny Jesus is the Son of God, they are without God and without hope — lost forever.

1Jo 5:4, “For whoever has been born of God

overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world: our faith.”

This is an ultimate truth: Whoever has been born of God overcomes the world; our faith is the victory that has overcome the world.

VII. THE IMPORTANT TRUTHS

1. “Everybody makes mistakes.”

This is the kind of mistake you cannot make.

A Western politician said, “All men make mistakes, but only wise men learn from their mistakes.

There are mistakes that even wise men cannot have a chance to learn from their mistakes. For example, you cannot learn from your mistake after you drink a glass of deadly poison.

Someone said, “Everybody makes mistakes, that’s why they put erasers on pencils.”

You may erase some mistake you wrote with pencil. There are some fatal mistakes no one can erase.

Hitler did not make mistakes; what he did was deliberate. Europe did not make mistakes, Europeans deliberately colonized and exploited and looted their colonies to enrich their respective nations. You see how many magnificent palaces, mansions, and stately buildings; they could not have been built without robbing the wealth of many nations. The US has attacked, occupied and killed millions of innocent peoples around the world since the end of World War II. You never hear American leaders and politicians apologize and make reparations for all the evil deeds they have done from the inception of the nation.

2. “No good or bad people.”

Someone was so wrong to say, “There are no completely good or bad people.” 

God of the universe holds different views. God calls the good people the righteous, bad people the wicked.

Here is the Word of God about the righteous:

Gen 18:23, “Abraham approached and said, “Will You indeed sweep away the righteous with the wicked?

Gen 18:25, “Far be it from You to do such a thing, to kill the righteous with the wicked, so that the

righteous and the wicked are treated alike. Far be it from You! Shall not the Judge of all the earth

deal justly?”

Guess what, Gen 18:32, “Then he said, “Oh may the Lord not be angry, and I shall speak only this once: suppose ten are found there?” And He said, “I will not destroy it on account of the ten.”

God destroyed Sodom because there were not even ten righteous persons there. Do you believe there are ten righteous persons in Washington, D.C., or New York, or London, or Paris, etc.?

The name of Nigeria has been discredited for years; the first country that invented using fake and empty millions to fish real money through Internet phishing and scam, no fool shall use it again to fool others? If the person claims below has the real money $1.5 million, it would be better donate to the Nigeria cholera breakout to save the victims of his own people. Crooks and criminals are so pathetic.

“I want to acknowledged you that we have finally succeeded in getting your package worth of $1.5 million out from Central Bank of Nigeria with the help of Mr. James George Attorney General of Federal High Court of Justice Federal Republic of Nigeria which act as your foreign Attorney representative here in Nigeria. So every necessary arrangement has been made successfully with the Agent Thomas Brocksopp for the delivery of your Consignment Box and every Documents guiding your delivery is well updated so you are advised to reconfirm your full delivery information to the Agent right now as he is currently at J F KENNEDY International Airport (JFK) with your Consignment Box, As he called me this morning to inform me that he misplaced your delivery address which he has due to CUSTOMS /FBI/ CIA and POLICE searching and scanning on the Box as if he is a terrorist there in your country but finally I thank God that they have confirmed that his movement is clear and legit with out any suspicious intentions to your country only to deliver this Consignment Box to you and the documents are updated as I earlier told you.

SECURITY CODE EYTU/3055WEZ/263/ TRANSACTION CODE 7126/JLFS/7138/17305/ CERTIFICATE DEPOSIT CODE MCBS/PQLE/2-6/41”

IN CONCLUSION

Mark Twain said, “Everybody lies…every day, every hour, awake, asleep, in his dreams, in his joy, in his mourning. If he keeps his tongue still his hands, his feet, his eyes, his attitude will convey deception.

Rom 3:4“Far from it! Rather, God must prove to

be true, though every person be found a liar, as it is written:
“SO THAT YOU ARE JUSTIFIED IN YOUR WORDS,
AND PREVAIL WHEN YOU ARE JUDGED.”

Lies cannot protect you. When God judges, lies cannot cover you up. Confess your sins and seek the salvation of God.

Epictetus said, “Liars are the cause of all the sins and crimes in the world.

3. The glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ is for anyone and everyone, for anybody and everybody, for whoever and whosoever, — this means including you.

This is not about taking chances, you have no chances to take. This is not the mistake you can laugh at yourself. There is no other way of doing things. This is the mistake you cannot recover from it. You cannot try again in a different way. There is no stepping stone. This is the fall you cannot get up again. This is not the choice that you can make it again. This is not the mistake you can erase. This is not a forgivable mistake. What mistake?

Mar 12:24, “Jesus replied, “Your mistake is that you don’t know the Scriptures, and you don’t know the power of God.”

Mat 10:28“And do not be afraid of those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul;

but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell.”

Jde 1:7, “as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example,suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.”

Hell fire is eternal fire, suffering in Hell is also eternal.

Rom 5:9, “Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him.”

Jesus Christ is the only ONE WHO can save you and me from the wrath of God, from Hell eternal fire.

You have learned that Act 4:12, “And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under Heaven that has been given among mankind by which we must be saved.”

There is no other salvation, Jesus is the only Savior. There is no other name, only Jesus can save you and me.

Jhn 3:16“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.”

Everyone means anyone, including you.

Jhn 6:37, “All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away.”

Whoever means anyone, including you. If you come to Jesus, He will never kick you out.

So the decision is yours.

Someone was so wrong in saying, “England expects that every man will do his duty.” For more than 500 years, England has not done its duty to apologize to its colonial victims and make reparations. It took a Chinese Iron Gentleman to melt the British Iron Lady in order to get Hong Kong back to China. Since the Opium Wars, England and others have not returned the priceless Chinese national treasures they had looted and robbed from China.

I agree with Blaise Pascal who said, “There is a God shaped vacuum in the heart of every man which cannot be filled by any created thing, but only by God, the Creator, made known through Jesus.

Anyone and everyone means whoever. Whoever is whosoever and means anybody and everybody. Anybody and everybody includes you. The greatest mistake of any person is to miss the salvation of God. 

Will you come now to repent of your sins and believe in the Son of God, the Savior of mankind to be your Lord and Savior? This is an opportunity once in a lifetime. This is the moment for you to decide. Every person saved is a Christian.

You can do it now!

EUROPEAN Nations that foolishly recognize statehood of Palestine should take Palestinians in and give them aid of all kinds free. What is the use of recognizing the state of Palestine when Palestine does not have territory or sovereignty?

Ukraine nincompoop wants to use USA to fight against Russia. US must ditch Ukraine, EU and abolish NATO. EU alliance has proven meaningless. America must not guarantee security for any nation. International community, knowingly or unknowingly, is greatly mistaken. Gaza does not belong to Palestinians. Gaza belongs to Israeli. Palestinians are originally Arabs who invaded Palestine under British rule. It is good and right for Palestinians to relocate permanently in lands of Arabs to establish a Palestinian State of their own.

Hamas who killed hostages must be killed. Hamas who mistreated hostages must be punished.

Palestinians do not have homeland. Gaza, West Bank, Golan Heights, etc. belong to the Jews. It is good and right that Palestinians be resettled permanently in any Arab land to build a Palestinian State of their own.

Palestinians must be evacuated from the Jewish lands and resettle permanently in Arab lands to build their own Palestinian state.  Hamas, Hezbollah and  Houthis are terrorists to be destroyed completely. That is the only way to peace.

The world intentionally believes in a lie. Palestinians are originally Arabs who surreptitiously moved to Israel without pay under the British colony called Palestine. Arabs bred like rabbits and called themselves Palestinians. It is most reasonable for Arabs to move to lands of Arabs. For Palestinians do not have claim or resettlement right in the Jewish land of Gaza, West Bank, etc. No one would object for Palestinians to build a Palestinian state  in lands of Arabs, but Palestinians cannot build a Palestinian state in the Jewish land. Palestinians prefer to be called refugees in order to receive international aid every thing for free. Palestinians must move out or be removed from the Jewish land. TERRORISTS HAMAS, Hezbollah and Houthis MUST be destroyed completely.

Some fools believe and practice martial arts, boxing, violence, sports such as foot ball to save impoverished and backward nations. The truth is only hard work, being good farmers, herdsmen, fishermen, teachnicians, repairmen, engineers can save poor, undeveloped and backward nations.

There has been undeclared war in the southern border between Mexico and America, which has been neglected by previous American administrations. Mexico flagrantly serves as the open conduit for illegal migrants to enter California and crossing the river to enter Texas. The US must bomb Mexico City to warn them there can not be business as usual; in particular Mexico rejected American airplanes which carried deported illegal migrants to land. America must use its powerful military and National Guards to patrol the borders 24 hours. Fire and shoot at unlawful migrants who climb the wall; who try to destroy the wall; who do graffiti on the wall; who congregate within 100 feet of the wall; who cross the river; who cut the wire to deter the invasion. America declares to REJECT all asylum applicants for 100 years. No humanitarian aid shall be given to any unlawful migrants. In addition to American troops, state National guards must also be used to end the unlawful migrants invasion of America. They are despicable and deplorable peoples who fail in their countries and dream of entering America to live happily and doing nothing on welfare.  Immigration Officers must raid Los Angeles, East Los Angeles, San Bernardino,  Santa Ana, San Diego, Miami, etc. — dens of illegal aliens; the Welfare Department has their names and addressees.

Palestinians are also useless, shameless and worthless peoples to loot and rob international aid trucks. They are violent and unproductive. Leaders and politicians of Palestinian Authority lead them to the path of destruction by illegally occupying the Jewish lands. They do not want to go to the Arab lands to build their Palestinian state. They rather stay in Jewish lands in order to receive aid for nothing. No aid should enter to help Palestinians.

Hamas should be held responsible for killing hostages and be punished. The UN chief, Arab, Islamic, Black, EU nations speak and support terrorists should be gone. All UN high-paid officials should be replaced; and UN to be reformed in 100 days. It is a false peace. Gaza, West Bank, Golan Heights, Rafah, etc. are Jewish lands.  UN, WHO, Arab-Muslim-Black nations and Palestinian Authority speaks and supports terrorists Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis without making any demand. Palestinians do not have homeland in Jewish lands. They must evacuate from Jewish lands and go to lands of Arab to build a Palestinian state.  That would be true peace but they do not want peace.

China generously aided more than 100 nations, while their politicians and leaders practice corruption and looting of national treasures, their unproductive people sing and dance, drink alcohol and produce many children they cannot support.

CHINA is the most unusual nation on earth. The craftsmen or artisans of Tang, Sung, Yuan, Ming, Qing dynasties created untold and immense treasures for China.  Western nations like Britain, US, France, Germany, Italy, Russia, Austria-Hungary, and Japan (8-nation alliance) attacked, burned, robbed and stole and looted China national treasures at market value of more than US$100,000 trillion dollars. It is better to return them to China now, not wait until China makes demands by military force. Shame on Western nations who claim or pretend to be Christian. For the last 500 years, the manifest evils of the West are imperialism, colonialism and capitalism.

Today Chinese rescue workers respond to any natural disaster, the speed and service they built tents and houses unmatched by any nation. The American homeless people would rejoice just to have the Chinese tents. China must not waste its resources on the lazy people and unproductive peoples who eat and get fat, drink alcohol, sing and dance, have sex and produce many unwanted children they cannot support; like to play, enjoy games and sports but dislike hard work and discipline; cannot even produce food and basic necessities.

Xizang earthquake demonstrates what the Chinese government cares and does for its people. What does the U.S. government do for Californians in Los Angeles wildfires? The world must know the truth.

Japan intends to swallow up the United States Steel in order to control the American economy. This should be an eye-opener to the U.S. government that Japan is not a genuine ally. The US government made a  big mistake in rearming Japan. Singapore and Malaysia are wise to establish a special economic zone. Many underdeveloped nations fool China in holding one-China policy. By doing so they think they deserve China’s economic and financial aid. India has conflict of interest in Bricks, it is better to withdraw and  Indonesia is wise to join Bricks.

Leaders and politicians of Palestinians are evil and guilty because they lead Palestinians to the path of death and destruction through illegal occupation of the Jewish land and support of the terrorists. They give false hope to Palestinians in so-called “two-state solutions”. Palestinians are Arabs, no one would object to Palestinians building a Palestinian state in an Arab land. When Palestinians want to build a Palestinian state in the Jewish land, that is the cause of conflict. Palestinians speak and support terrorists Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis. Palestine leaders and politicians should evacuate all Palestinians from the land of the Jews and go to Arab lands to build a Palestinian state. That would be peace.

The Internet is a cesspool of corruption, fraud and iniquity. No nation polices and punishes their wrongdoings. Money making individuals and institutions would invade your computer to push their products even rejected. Many famous American universities and institutions are selling their fraudulent products for incurable problems. Many individuals and institutions claim to be Christian and shamelessly and aggressively ask for donations. Many sell famous works in public domain through subscriptions and purchases. Many distort and pervert the Word of God but ask for donations.

Any nation which restricts, bans, or interferes with China’s activities is illegal and unlawful. China can do anything within its sovereignty that does not violate the international law.

To appease the fury and wrath of South Koreans, the impeached Yoon and all those who blocked his arrest shall be executed once and for all.  Maybe Yoon should experience the 4-horse treatment. South Korea is the nation the world should not be: all incompetent, chaotic and useless.

Henceforth beginning 2025 all undeveloped nations must work, discipline and be responsible to produce their own food and other necessities; all international aid will be terminated beginning November 2025. Undeveloped nations cannot do as usual in dancing, singing, drinking and sporting, have sex and produce many unwanted children they cannot support. They must work hard to support and save themselves. Based on the Biblical principle, 2Th 3:10, “For even when we were with you, we used to give you this order: if anyone is not willing to work, then he is not to eat, either.

How can we be suspicious since we never ask for money, we only tell the truth absolutely free.

China has aided more than 100 nations costing hundreds of $ billions. Tell the truth, which nation has expressed act of gratitude? Won’t it better to spend on internal improvement or buying gold?

THE WEST (US, BRITAIN, CANADA, EU) BEING EVIL AND FOUND GUILTY OF SANCTIONING CHINA ALL BECAUSE THEY COVET XINJIANG AND XICHANG AND HONG KONG, USE TAIWAN AND SOUTH CHINA SEA TO ATTACK CHINA’S SOVEREIGNTY.

On the one hand, some White experts pretend to make good suggestions to improve China economy; they may fool many Chinese, I can see malice, envy and ill will through their awkward faces. On the other hand, Black leaders and politicians play coy and con China to support their development for nothing. China needs to stop all foreign aid for two reasons: China needs to pay down deficits and debts. China must not be fooled and must use its hard-earned meager resources wisely to do the following strategic projects:

  1.  China should have unswerving commitment only to itself. China should not waste money on useless and unworthy undeveloped countries. Not one nation is grateful. Deficits and debts are bad. China cannot save the world, China must save itself.

2 Make deserts green and reduce sand storms.

3.  Repair the Great Walls. Build sea walls around Hainan Island, Shanghai, etc. to prevent climate change that sea water will rise.

4.  Promote night markets in big cities and promote domestic travel to expand the economy. Deficits and debts are bad; fiscal surplus is good.

5.  Execute crooks and criminals who defraud through Telecom and Internet of more than ONE million yuan. IT is not known who polices the rampant international crooks and criminals who defraud the public by famous American universities and institutions who sell high-priced fake drugs such as to cure knee pain and prevent knee surgery and ear ringing, etc.  Sweep clean fraudulent commercials on TV and the Internet.

6.  Execute crooks and criminals who defraud in foreign nations and do not bring them home. Faces and names of deceivers must be published on TV to shame them and their families.

7.  Increase and strengthen the development and deployment of nuclear weapons for self-defence.

8.  Streamline and reduce national and local government debts and deficits.

9.  Train 5 million doctors, dentists, nurses, teachers, professors and MANAGERS, machinists in the next 5 years.

10.  Assist the poor Chinese in the rural areas first.

11.  Improve mechanized agriculture, and upgrade technology in every field.

How to solve global hunger and poverty? There are nations and peoples who deserve to suffer hunger and poverty. For example, Palestinians do not want to go to lands of Arab to build a Palestinian state of their own. They would rather be in the Jewish land and label as refugees so that they can receive international aid for free. There are undeveloped nations and peoples whose leaders and politicians are corrupt, and the peoples are lazy and unproductive; they eat and get fat, sing and dance, drink beer and have sex, produce many children they cannot support. They like the way of life so that they can beg and receive aid freely. These nations will remain poor and suffer  hunger in worse situation a hundred years from now!

ON September 3, 2025 for China to mark 80th anniversary of victory over Japanese aggression and fascism is a historical necessity and hard-earned victory. I have never seen such a great parade before, the size and scope of it would overwhelm your mind; every aspect of it was systematically planned, every step of male and female soldiers was of uniform procedures, every military vehicle with all nuclear missiles and every war airplane in the sky well performed; the words such as grand, massive, superb, magnificent fail to describe the whole celebration. I wholeheartedly salute every Chinese military man and woman who participated. Never again will China be oppressed. I am sure the militant Japan is deterred, and no nation on earth would dare to attack China again. Thank God it did not rain.

The mayors of Los Angeles, Washington, D.C. and Chicago are for crooks and criminals, they must be dismissed and deported. All the facts point to the need, Ukraine must be destroyed and its leader executed in order to end the war. Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis are terrorists and the countries that harbor them must be destroyed all together.

Since Gaza, West Bank, etc. are the Jewish lands, Palestinians must evacuate from all Jewish lands and flee to Arab lands where they are safe to receive international aid and build a Palestinian state of their choice.

The leader of Ukraine is corrupt and evil. Ukrainians are stupid to follow the path of destruction. He was the one who instigated war with Russia. Now he asks for security guarantees. The nincompoop should be executed to end the war.

Palestinians, Africans, and others serve as example of peoples who want to eat and do not want to work. UN, WHO, EU, etc. champion their cause. Palestinians do not want evacuate from Gaza, Jewish lands to resettle in Arab lands. Because they will lose their status as refugees where they can get their food, fuel, water, medicine and everything for free from international community. These problems multiply with the passage of time.

UN, EU, GERMANY, UK, FRANCE, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZELAND, ETC. are strange and unreasonable peoples. Who is stopping Palestinians to build a Palestinian state in an Arab land? It is wrong and illegal to build a Palestinian state in Jewish land (Gaza, West Bank, etc.). That is the cause of conflict.

The fact that National Guards have to patrol Washington, D.C. with weapons speaks loudly and badly of the capital. The mayor of Washington, D.C. should be dismissed and deported. All the more urgent the national capital should move to Lincoln, Nebraska, without delay.

The mayor of Washington, D.C. bowed to the illegal acts of street people who set up tents on public streets. She should be dismissed and deported. The National Guards are empowered to trash the tents, clear the streets and vanish street people. Los Angeles is a disgraced city because the California Governor and Los Angeles mayor failed to solve the problems of street people who not only set up tents on public streets, but also urinate and defecate. All the more urgent for the national capital to move to Lincoln, Nebraska. In the face of national debt exceeding $37 trillion, the people can save money by abolishing the House, retain the unicameral legislation of Senate to move also to Lincoln Nebraska. All this can be accomplished legally by a national refrerendum. America is ruined by dark and evil forces.

Heroes of all races who sacrified their lives for China in the war against Japanese aggression should be celebrated and remembered. The descendants of them are eternal friends of China. Descendants of American Flying Tiers whose forefathers had sacrified their lives in the war against Japanese aggression and atrocities must always be honored and remembered. The Chinse government must treat them as eternal friends, and they are welcome to China anytime. Such blood bonds must be appreciated and maintained forever.

The world wrongly marks the anniversary of dropping atomic bomb on Hiroshima while neglecting the Japanese aggression and atrocities of killing 35 million innocent Chinese without remorse or reparations. UN overappointed unqualified blacks and media have given too much coverage to unworthy black spoke-persons. It is amazing no matter how beautifully white organizations and individuals hail human rights, civil rights, democracy, development, technology, benefits, justice, etc., what they are actually after is MONEY. This can be said equally true about blacks.

Pet economy is wasted economy. Money should better be spent on nutrition and education of children and orphans. In cities all dogs must have annual license of Y5,000, cats Y4,000, and birds Y3,000. It is exempt for rural areas. If a dog defecates in public place, it shall be fined Y3,000 plus cleanup by owner or walker.

Global media highlight the number of Palestinians who have died, but fail to consider why Palestinian Authority and Palestinians do not want to evacuate from Jewish land and resettle in Arab land. Palestinians, men and women, young and old, are shameless beggars. They remain in Gaza to qualify for refugees so that they can get everything free from international community. The international community is ignorant of the fact that GAZA and related territories all belong to the Jews. Israel has every right to take back and take over Gaza and related territories. Palestinians must evacuate and relocate to Arab lands, make a living and establish its own Palestinian state without further delay.

French nincompoop Macron recognized Palestine as a state but failed to know that Palestine does not have territory and sovereignty. Leaders of UK, GERMANY, AUSTRLALIA would commit the same mistake by supporting terrorists. Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis are wicked terrorists, they should be destroyed without mercy. Leaders of Palestinian Authority are guilty for the death and malnutrition of children because they lead Palestinians to the path of destruction. They could have led Palestinians to lands of Arabs to earn a living and build their own Palestinian state. Palestinians (young & old, man & woman) are most shameless beggars for food & water, they don’t want to go to an Arab land to earn a living and build their own Palestinian state. Africa amid famine has the most fat people in the world, they are also shameless beggars. Ukrainians are shameless beggars for weapons, they do not have reason for existence. Harvard though the richest university in the world is a shameless beggar for US aid. Japan claims to practice democracy, its ruling party lost election miserably, yet its prime minister shamelessly wants to stay in power. The world must realize years of aid to Africa produced nothing, trillions of dollars went to black holes.  Africa is corrupt, unmotivated and useless. Black leaders and politicians take advantage of it; dress well, eat well, and live a luxurious life style. Black problems can be solved only by Blacks. Let Africa alone to survive on its own. Blacks create most of the problems in the world, given too much coverage and platform in world media, overappointed and given too many spokespersons and positions in UN. Any nation who shares destiny with Africa will be doomed. Nothing good comes out of Africa: primitive religion, superstition, spiritism, orgies, black magic, tribalism, voodooism.

If the Texas flooding is an act of God; Ukraine conflict, and conflicts of Hamas, Hezbollah, and Houthis must be acts of the devil.

India must coexist with China, at the same time India and South Africa must be expelled from BRICS besause they do not remain true to BRICS’ founding mission, they do not belong, must be replaced by Indonesia and Saudi Arabia. US and EU must not rearm Ukraine, let Russia destroy it, and never to be rebuilt. The leader of Ukraine must also be executed.

Palestinian Authorities are guilty for leading Palestinians to a path of death, children died and suffer malnutrition.  Palestian Authorities do not lead Palestinians (who are Arabs) to a land of Arabs to work for a living and build the Palestinian state.

American forces have successfully wiped out three Iranian nuclear sites through B-2 bombers. The “everlasting consequence” is Iran cannot be a nuclear threat anymore. I stand with the overwhelming majority of Dutch people to demolish NATO — the war machine.

*THE ETERNAL

*Our mission is to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ absolutely free. We do not want donation. We only want you to know the truth.

What is ETERNAL? Can the temporary understand what is eternal? There is nothing eternal in this world.

What is eternal is everlasting. What is everlasting is eternal. Eternity is both eternal and everlasting.

On the day a typhoon was fiercely attacking Fujian, I was observing the sky in Shanghai. Below the blue sky there were a bunch of white clouds fleeting and flying across the sky; but the blue sky remained. This kept me thinking what is eternal. The things of the world like money, power, and sex are passing away like clouds. The truth, justice, and love are forever. The Bible says righteousness dwells in the Kingdom of Heaven. Do you know righteousness includes truth and justice?

2Co 4:18, “while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

THE ETERNAL GOD DETERMINES THERE ARE TWO ETERNALS, OR TWO ETERNITIES.

What is eternity? The best definition is whether derived directly or indirectly:  “time without end” or “without end.”

Definition is important because it defines knowledge.

  1.  The Good Eternal

1.)  The Eternal God.

Deu 33:27, “The Eternal God is a hiding place,

and underneath are the everlasting arms; and He

drove out the enemy from you, and said, ‘Destroy!’

Eternal in Hebrew is qeḏem which means everlasting; that which has no beginning; — which occurs 87 times in the Old Testament.

You cannot help to laugh when you know and think of false gods made of paper, wood, stone, and mineral.

Psa 93:2, ”Your throne is established from of old;

You are from eternity.

God existed before time and space.

Benson Commentary

Deuteronomy 33:27The eternal God — He who was before all worlds, and will be when time shall be no more; is thy refuge — Or, thy habitation, or mansion-house, (so the word signifies,) in whom thou art safe, and easy, and at rest, as a man in his own house. Every true Israelite is at home in God: the soul returns to him, and reposes in him. And they that make him their habitation shall have all the comforts and benefits of a habitation in him. And underneath are the everlasting arms — The almighty power and infinite goodness of God, which protects and comforts all that trust in him, in their greatest straits and distresses. He shall thrust out the enemy from before thee — He shall expel the Canaanites, and make room for you in their country. And shall say, Destroy them — That is, shall give you power, as well as authority, to root them out. For to say is to command, and what he commands he gives power to execute. And has he not commanded believers to destroy, in themselves, all sin; all evil tempers and corrupt inclinations, as well as all sinful words and actions; and will he not give them power so to do, if they apply to him for it?”

Rom 16:26, “but now has been disclosed, and through the Scriptures of the prophets, in accordance with the commandment of the Eternal God, has been made known to all the nations, leading to obedience of faith.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  •  now] In the days of Messiah, and in Him as the Propitiation. Cp. Colossians 1:26.
    by the scriptures, &c.] Lit. by means of (the) prophetic scriptures. This Epistle, and e.g. Acts 13, are the best commentary on these words. The O. T., as the great prediction of Messiah and preparation for Him, was the text and the warrant of His Apostles wherever they went, and that for Gentiles as much as for Jews. When the Gentiles previously knew nothing of the O. T. the preaching would, of course, not take the O. T. as its starting-point; (see St Paul’s discourse at Athens;) but even in such cases it would bring forward the Prophecies as soon as possible, both as its credentials and its text.—We have heard this verse unintentionally illustrated by a distinguished Hindoo convert, of great intellectual power; who attributed his ultimate escape from the maze of Brahminic pantheism to the attentive study of the Messianic prophecies side by side with the Gospel history.
    the everlasting God] The Gr. word (aionios) rendered everlasting perhaps refers back to the “æons” or “ages” of Romans 16:25. Q. d., “The Gospel is now revealed and proclaimed according to the will of Him who appoints and adjusts all the developements of His providence, alike past, present and to come.” He who rules all duration knows when to keep silence and when to break it.—This adjective is nowhere else in the N. T. attached to the word God.—On the adjective, see further on Romans 2:7.
    to all nations] Lit. to (or perhaps better, forall the nations. The special reference is, of course, to the Gentiles.
    for the obedience of faith] i.e. to invite that obedience which, in fact, faith implies; that trustful acceptance of the terms of Salvation which may be described, in one aspect, as “submission to the righteousness of God.” (See note on Romans 10:3.) The thought is not so much of the course of moral obedience to which faith leads, as of the element of submission in the act of faith.
    In this brief phrase the great Theme of the Epistle is heard for the last time.”

Isa 43:13, “Even from eternity I am He, and there is 

no one who can rescue from My hand; I act, and who

can reverse it?”

Barnes’ Notes on the Bible

Yea, before the day was – Before the first day, or before the beginning of time; from eternity. The Septuagint renders it correctly, Ἀπ ̓ ἀρχης Ap’ archēs, and the Vulgate (Ab initio), ‘From the beginning.’

I am he – I am the same Isaiah 43:10.

I will work – I will accomplish my designs.

And who shall let it? – Margin, as Hebrew, ‘Turn it back.’ The meaning is, ‘Who can hinder it?’ And the doctrine taught here is:

  1. That God is from everlasting, for if he was before time, he must have been eternal.
  2. That he is unchangeably the same – a doctrine which is, as it is here designed to be used, the only sure foundation for the security of his people – for who can trust a being who is fickle, changing, vacillating?
  3. That he can deliver his people always, no matter what are their circumstances.
  4. That he will accomplish all his plans; no matter whether to save his people, or to destroy his foes.
  5. That no one – man or devil – can hinder him. How can the feeble arm of a creature resist God?
  6. That opposition to him is as fruitless as it is wicked. If people wish for happiness, they must fall in with his plans, and aid in the furtherance of his designs.”
  • )  Eternal Father.

Isa 9:6, “For a Child will be born to us, a Son will be given to us; and the government will rest on His shoulders; and His name will be called Wonderful 

Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  •  unto us] the survivors of the judgment. Cf. “Immanuel,” “God with us.”
    the government] This word is found only here and in Isaiah 9:7, and is of uncertain interpretation, perhaps “princedom.”
    his name shall be called] The name of the Messiah consists of a series of honorific titles, pertaining to Him in His kingly capacity and expressing mainly the qualities displayed in His government. We may compare, with Guthe and others, the high-sounding titles assumed by Egyptian and Babylonian monarchs in their inscriptions, such as, “Giver of Life in perpetuity,” “Ever Living,” “Lord of Life,” “Lord of Eternity and Infinity” &c.
    Wonderful, Counseller] Since each of the other names is compounded of two words, these expressions are also to be taken together as forming a single designation—Wonder-Counseller. The construction is either construct followed by genitive—“a wonder of a Counseller” (cf. Genesis 16:12), or acc. governed by participle—“one who counsels wonderful things.” Cf. “wonderful in counsel” (of Jehovah) in ch. Isaiah 28:29. On counsel as the function of a king, see Micah 4:9.
    The mighty God] (’êl Gibbôr) either “God-like Hero” or Hero-God. The second is to be preferred, because the title is applied to Jehovah in ch. Isaiah 10:21 (cf. Deuteronomy 10:17Jeremiah 32:18). These two titles ascribe to the Messiah the two fundamental virtues of a ruler, wisdom and strength (cf. ch. Isaiah 11:2), both in superhuman measure. The predicate of divinity (like that of eternity in the next name) is not to be understood in the absolute metaphysical sense; it means that the divine energy works through him and is displayed in his rule (cf. Isaiah 11:2 ff.; Mi. Isaiah 5:4Zechariah 12:8). In the fulfilment the words receive a larger sense.
    The remaining two titles describe the character of the Messiah’s government, as (a) paternal, and (b) peaceful.
    The everlasting Father] lit. Father of Eternity. The translation “Father of booty” is grammatically unimpeachable (see ch. Isaiah 33:23Genesis 49:27), but the ideas of fatherhood and booty form an unnatural association. “Father of Eternity” describes the king, not as “possessor of the attribute of eternity” but as one who continually acts as a father to his people.
    Prince of Peace] Cf. ch. Isaiah 2:2-4Isaiah 11:4 ff.; Micah 5:5Zechariah 9:10.
    6, 7. The last and greatest cause of joy is the birth of the Messiah and his wonderful character and government. When Isaiah expected the event to take place, cannot be gathered from this prophecy. There is no reason for supposing that the reference is to a child already born; the perfect tense is used, as throughout the passage, from the ideal standpoint of the writer, which is within the Messianic age. The birth of the child is most naturally conceived as taking place in the age of miracle which succeeds the overthrow of the Assyrian; hence no part is assigned to him in effecting the national emancipation.”

3.)  The King Eternal, Immortal, Invisible, the Only God.

1Ti 1:17, “Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.”

Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers

  •  Now unto the King.—The wonderful chain of thoughts (1Timothy 1:12-16) which so well illustrate the great assertion of 1Timothy 1:15—“that Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners”—St. Paul closes with a noble ascription of praise and thankfulness to the great God.

This doxology is addressed to no one Person of the ever blessed Trinity, but is—as has been said with great truth—“a grand testimony to the monotheism of St. Paul: the Godhead, the Trinity of his worship, is a sublime unity. To this Eternal, Incorruptible One be glory and honour unto the ages of the ages. Amen.”

Eternal.—More accurately rendered, (to the King) of the ages. The King of the Ages is the sovereign dispenser and disposer of the ages of the world. There is no reference at all here to the Gnostic æons.

Immortal (or incorruptible).—This epithet and the following one—“invisible”—are connected with “God,” not, with the preceding clause, “to the King of the Ages.” God is immortal, in contrast with the beings of earth, and—

Invisible, in contrast with the visible creation.

The only wise God.The only God, the most ancient authorities omitting “wise.” “Only,” as in 1Timothy 6:15 : “the blessed and only potentate.” “The only God,” a contrast to the multitude of created spirits, angels, principalities, powers, &c. (See 1Corinthians 8:5-6.)

For ever and ever.—Literally, to the ages of the ages, to all eternity—a Hebraistic expression for a duration of time superlatively (infinitely) long.

4.)  The Eternal Spirit.

Heb 9:14, “how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the Eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  1.  how much more] Again we have the characteristic word—the key-note as it were—of the Epistle.
    the blood of Christ] which is typified by “the fountain opened for sin and for uncleanness” (Zechariah 13:1).
    who through the eternal Spirit] If this be the right rendering the reference must be to the fact that Christ was “quickened by the Spirit” (1 Peter 3:18); that “God gave not the Spirit by measure unto Him” (John 3:34); that “the Spirit of the Lord was upon Him” (Luke 4:18); that He “by the Spirit of God” cast out devils (Matthew 12:28). For this view of the meaning see Pearson on the Creed, Art. iii., and it is represented by the reading “Holy” for Eternal in some cursive mss. and some versions. It may however be rendered “by an Eternal Spirit,” namely by His own Spirit—by that burning love which proceeded from His own Spirit—and not by a mere “ordinance of the flesh” (Hebrews 9:10). In the Levitic sacrifices involuntary victims bled; but Christ’s sacrifice was offered by the will of His own Eternal Spirit.
    without spot] Christ had that sinless perfection which was dimly foreshadowed by the unblemished victims which could alone be offered under the Levitic law (1 Peter 1:19).
    from dead works] See Hebrews 6:1. If sinful works are meant, they are represented as affixing a stain to the conscience; they pollute as the touching of a dead thing polluted ceremonially under the Old Law (Numbers 19:11-16). But all works are “dead” which are done without love. It is to be observed that the writer—true to the Alexandrian training which instilled an awful reverence respecting Divine things—attempts even less than St Paul to explain the modus operandi. He tells us that the Blood of Christ redeems and purifies us as the old sacrifices could not do. Sacrifices removed ceremonial defilement—they thus “purified the flesh:” but the Blood of Christ perfects and purifies the conscience (Hebrews 10:22) and so admits us into the Presence of God. The “how can this be?” belongs to the secret things which God has not revealed; we only know and believe that so it is.
    to serve the living God] Not to serve “dead works” or a mere material tabernacle, or fleshly ordinances, but to serve the Living God who can only be truly served by those who are “alive from the dead” (Romans 6:13).”

5.)  The Eternal Covenant.

Heb 13:20, “Now may the God of peace, who brought up from the dead the great Shepherd of the sheep through the blood of the eternal covenant, that is, Jesus our Lord.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

20the God of peace. The phrase is frequent in St Paul (1 Thessalonians 5:23 : 2 Thessalonians 3:16Romans 15:33Romans 16:20Php 4:9).
that brought again from the dead] Among many allusions to the Ascension and Glorification of Christ this is the only direct allusion in the Epistle to His Resurrection (but comp. Hebrews 6:2Hebrews 11:35). The verb ἀνήγαγεν may be “raised again” rather than “brought up,” though there may be a reminiscence of “the shepherd” (Moses) who “brought up” his people from the sea in Isaiah 63:11.
through the blood of the everlasting covenant] Rather, “by virtue of (lit. “in”) the blood of an eternal covenant.” The expression finds its full explanation in Hebrews 9:15-18. Others connect it with “the Great Shepherd.” He became the Great Shepherd by means of His blood. So in Acts 20:28 we have “to shepherd the Church of God, which He purchased for Himself by means of His own blood.” A similar phrase occurs in Zechariah 9:11, “By (or “because of”) the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit.”

6.)  Eternal Power.

Rom 1:20, “For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, that is, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, being understood by what has been made, so that they are without excuse.”

Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers

  • For, though there were parts of God’s being into which the eye could not penetrate, still they were easily to be inferred from the character of His visible creation, which bore throughout the stamp of Omnipotence and Divinity.

The invisible things of him.—His invisible attributes, afterwards explained as “His eternal power and Godhead.”

Are clearly seen . . . by the things that are made.—There is something of a play upon words here. “The unseen is seen—discerned by the eye of the mind—being inferred or perceived by the help of that which is made,” i.e., as we should say, by the phenomena of external nature.

Even His eternal power and Godhead.—A summary expression for those attributes which, apart from revelation, were embodied in the idea of God. Of these “power” is the most obvious. St. Paul does not go into the questions that have been raised in recent times as to the other qualities which are to be inferred as existing in the Author of nature; but he sums them up under a name that might be used as well by a Pagan philosopher as by a Christian—the attributes included in the one term “Godhead.” Divinity would be, perhaps, a more correct translation of the expression. What is meant is “divine nature,” rather than “divine personality.”

So that they are without excuse.—They could not plead ignorance.”

7.)  Eternal Dominion.

1Ti 6:16, “who alone possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To Him be honor and eternal 

dominion! Amen.”

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 16. – Light unapproachable for the light which no man can approach unto, A.V.; eternal for everlasting, A.V. Unapproachable (ἀπρόσιτον); only here in the New Testament, but found occasionally in. the later classics, corresponding to the more common ἄβατος. Whom no man hath seen, nor can see (comp. 1 Timothy 1:17 (where see note) and Exodus 33:20-23). The appearance of the “God of Israel” to Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, related in Exodus 34:9-11, was that of the Son in anticipation of the Incarnation. The invisibility of the essential Godhead is also predicated in our Lord’s saying, “God is a Spirit” (John 4:24). This whole passage is a magnificent embodiment of the attributes of the living God, supreme blessedness and almighty power, universal dominion, and unchangeable being, inscrutable majesty, radiant holiness, and glory inaccessible and unapproachable by his creatures, save through the mediation of his only begotten Son. 1 Timothy 6:16.”

8.)  Eternal Gospel.

Rev 14:6, “And I saw another angel flying in midheaven with an eternal Gospel to preach to those who live on the earth, and to every nation, tribe, language, and people.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

The Angel with the Everlasting Gospel, Revelation 14:6-76another angel] Different from the many mentioned before, perhaps especially distinguished from the one who appears in ch. 10, but see Revelation 14:17Revelation 18:1, where such a reference is hardly possible.
in the midst of heaven] See on Revelation 8:13.
the everlasting gospel] Strictly speaking, these words have not the article, but neither has “[the] Gospel of God” in Romans 1:1. Even if, therefore, the grammatical usage of this Book were more regular than it is, it would be needless to translate “an eternal piece of good news,” in which, moreover, it would be hard to find a sense for the epithet. No doubt “gospel” is used in its constant N. T. sense; and the gospel is called “everlasting,” as declaring the eternal truth of God. The preaching of the Gospel here stands in the same relation to God’s Judgement as in St Matthew 24:14. But notice, that the name is applied to the whole truth of God, not to what was revealed by Christ only: for the substance of the angel’s message is pure natural theism.”

9.)  Eternal Salvation.

Mar 16:20, “And they went out and preached 

everywhere, while the Lord worked with them, and confirmed the word by the signs that followed.

And they promptly reported all these instructions to Peter and his companions. And after that, Jesus Himself also sent out through them from east to west the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation.

Heb 5:9, “And having been perfected, He became the source of Eternal Salvation for all those who obey Him.”

Bengel’s Gnomen

Hebrews 5:9Καὶ τελειωθεὶςand being made perfect) by sufferings, ch. Hebrews 2:10.—τοῖς ὑπακούουσιν αὐτῷto them that obey Him2 Corinthians 10:5. We must obey likewise through sufferings and death [as Christ obeyed the Father.—V. g.] and chiefly by faith, ch. Hebrews 11:8.—πᾶσινto all) Great power, ch. Hebrews 2:10-11Hebrews 2:15.—αἴτιος σωτηρίας αἰωνίουthe author of eternal salvationDessen habe der liebe Herr Jesu Dank von uns in Ewigkeit. “For which the beloved Lord Jesus may have thanks from us in eternity.” E. Schmidius, piously. Moreover αἴτιος is a word extremely worthy of Him and (comp. 1 Samuel 22:22αἴτιος ψυχῶν) one by which it is intimated, that Christ, being made perfect, pleads the cause of the brethren, from this circumstance, because it now evidently belongs to Him to accomplish [to make good] their salvation; for He is able: comp. δυνάμενονwho was ableHebrews 5:7, ch. Hebrews 7:25 : and ought (it behoved Him) to do so, comp. ὤφειλεHe ought, ch. Hebrews 2:17. [Der für Etwas stehet, an der man sich halten kann. He stands for something to which one can cling.—V. g.] We must also observe the epithet, eternal salvation, which is opposed to the shortness of the days of Jesus’ flesh, and flows (is derived) from Hebrews 5:6for ever. Concerning this salvation, look back to ch. Hebrews 2:10Hebrews 2:14, etc. The eternity of salvation is mentioned, Isaiah 45:17Ἰσραήλ σώζεται ὑπὸ Κυρὶου σωτηρίαν αἰώνιονIsrael is saved by the Lord with an eternal salvation.”

9.)  Eternal Redemption.

Heb 9:12, “and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, He entered the holy place once for all time, having obtained 

eternal redemption.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  1.  neither] “Nor yet.”
    by the blood of goats and calves] “by means of the blood of goats and calves,” (this is the order of the words in the best mss.). It is not meant that the sacrifices of the Old Covenant were useless, but only that when they were regarded as meritorious in themselves—apart from the faith, and the grace of God, by which they could be blessed to sincere and humble worshippers—they could neither purge the conscience, nor give access to God. When the Prophets speak of sacrifices with such stern disparagement they are only denouncing the superstition which regarded the mere opus operatum as sufficient apart from repentance and holiness (Hosea 6:6Isaiah 1:10-17, &c.).
    by his own blood] His own blood was the offering by which He was admitted as our High Priest and Eternal Redeemer into the Holy of Holies of God’s immediate presence (Hebrews 13:20Revelation 5:6).
    once] “once for all.”
    into the holy place] i.e. into the Holiest, as in Leviticus 16:3Leviticus 16:9.
    eternal redemption] i.e. “the forgiveness of sins” (Ephesians 1:7), and ransom from sinful lives (1 Peter 1:18-19) to the service of God (Revelation 5:9). It should always be borne in mind that the Scriptural metaphors of Ransom and Propitiation describe the Atonement by its blessed effects as regards man. All speculation as to its bearing on the counsels of God, all attempts to frame a scholastic scheme out of metaphors only intended to indicate a transcendent mystery, by its results for us have led to heresy and error. To whom was the ransom paid? The question is idle, because “ransom” is only a metaphor of our deliverance from slavery. For nearly a thousand years the Church was content with the most erroneous, and almost blasphemous notion that the ransom was paid by God to the devil, which led to still more grievous aberrations. Anselm who exploded this error substituted for it another—the hard forensic notion of indispensable satisfaction. Such terms, like those of “substitution,” “vicarious punishment,” “reconciliation of God to us” (for “of us to God”), have no sanction in Scripture, which only reveals what is necessary for man, and what man can understand, viz. that the love of God in Christ has provided for him a way of escape from ruin, and the forgiveness of sins.
    having obtained … for us] The “for us” is rightly supplied; but the middle voice of the verb shews that Christ in His love to us also regarded the redemption as dear to Himself.”

10.)  Eternal Glory.

2Ti 2:10, “For this reason I endure all things for the sake of those who are chosen, so that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus and 

with it eternal glory.”

Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible

Therefore I endure all things for the elects’ sakes,…. There is a certain number of persons whom God has chosen in Christ from everlasting unto salvation, who shall certainly be saved; for these Jesus Christ suffered and died; and on their account is the Gospel sent, preached, and published to the world; for their sakes are ministers fitted and qualified for their work, and have their mission and commission to perform it, and suffer what they do in the execution of it; and since it was for the sake of such, whom God had loved and chosen, that the apostle endured all his reproaches, afflictions, and persecutions, he was the more cheerful under them; and the consideration of it was a support unto him:

that they may also obtain; as well as himself, and other chosen vessels of salvation, who were called by grace already; for the apostle is speaking of such of the elect, who were, as yet, in a state of nature:

the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory; salvation is only by Christ Jesus, and in him; and this is only for the elect of God; and it is published in the Gospel, that they might obtain it; and in all ages they do obtain it, or enjoy it: the thing itself is obtained by Christ for them, through his obedience, sufferings, and death; and it is published in the everlasting Gospel, that they might come to the knowledge of it; and in the effectual calling it is brought near by the Spirit of God, and applied unto them; and they have now both a meetness for it, and a right unto it, and shall fully enjoy it in heaven; for it has “eternal glory”, or “heavenly glory”, as the Vulgate Latin and Ethiopic versions read, “annexed to it”; or rather the full enjoyment of it will consist in an eternal and heavenly glory, which will be put upon the saints, both in soul and body, and remain to all eternity.”

1Pe 5:10, “After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen, and 

establish you.”

Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers

  •  Who hath called us unto his eternal glory.—The true reading is, who called you, not “us.” The moment of the call was that when St. Paul and the others first preached there. (See 1Peter 1:121Peter 1:25, and Notes.) The God who now bestows all grace, by the giving of that grace calls us into glory.

The men of grace have found

Glory begun below.”

By Christ Jesus.—On the whole it seems best, with Tischendorf, to drop the name of Jesus out of the text: the title “Christ” will then stand between “the eternal glory,” which we possess “in Him” (not “by Christ Jesus,” as our version has it, but by virtue of our union with the Christ)and the immediate mention of suffering. In Him the two are drawn inseparably together.

Suffered a while.—The Greek says distinctly, “a little while,” as in 1Peter 1:6. All time is short in comparison of what comes after. The original looks as if St. Peter meant not only “after that ye have suffered,” but also “by the fact of your having suffered.”

Make you perfect.—Strictly these are futures, “shall (or, will) make you perfect” &c. This verb occurs again in 1Thessalonians 3:10, and elsewhere. It implies the reduction to order and fitness for work of what is disordered or broken. The others, which are all very similar in meaning, are heaped up after St. Peter’s manner. Bengel thus explains them: “Make you perfect, that there remain no defect in you. Stablish, that nothing shake you. Strengthen, that you may overcome all force brought against you.” The word for “to settle” means “to found,” to give a solid foundation. All this is to take place at the close of the short spell of suffering which is the means to it. St. Peter seems, therefore, to contemplate the passing off of the persecution before the end of the world; for these verbs could hardly be so naturally used to express our education in the world to come.”

11.)  Eternal Comfort.

2Th 2:16, “Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself 

and God our Father, who has loved us and given us 

eternal comfort and good hope by grace.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  1.  Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father] This remarkable invocation corresponds both in form and place in the Epistle to that of 1 Thessalonians 3:11 (see note). But here Christ’s name comes first, a circumstance indicating the Divinity with which the writer invests it: “Where now are those who would lower the Son of God?” (Chrysostom). Comp. 2 Corinthians 13:14.—Again the Subjects are united by the singular number of the following verbs (comfort, &c., 2 Thessalonians 2:17).
    As in 1 Thessalonians 3:11, we prefer to render the particle of transition But (rather than Nowmay our Lord Jesus Christ and God our Father. On “Lord Jesus Christ,” see note to 1 Thessalonians 1:1. St Paul invokes our Lord Jesus Christ Himself as their stablisher, with God our Father, in contrast with the efforts on their own part to which he has exhorted his readers (2 Thessalonians 2:15); comp. the transition in 1 Thessalonians 5:22-23 (see note).
    St Paul prays with confidence for his emperilled brethren at Thessalonica, because of the grace which Christ and God had already bestowed both on them and him: Who loved us and gave us eternal comfort (or encouragementand good hope.
    “God our Father, Who loved us and gave,” &c. There is the tenderest connection of thought in these words. God’s Fatherly love prompts His great gifts. See the words of Christ in Matthew 7:11Luke 12:32 : “Your Father who is in heaven shall give (you) good things,” &c.; comp. John 3:161 John 3:1; also Romans 5:8. While the Thessalonians are “beloved of God” (1 Thessalonians 1:4), they are also “beloved by the Lord” (2 Thessalonians 2:13); and this clause, though singular, may include Christ in its reference, He and the Father being one in love as in comfort (2 Thessalonians 2:17).
    In His love the Father had already given the readers gladness of heart in trouble (ch. 2 Thessalonians 1:41 Thessalonians 1:6), such as the Apostle often acknowledges in his own case (e.g. in 2 Corinthians 1:4-6)—an “eternal comfort,” which the sorrows of time will never waste. To know that God loves us is in itself a comfort infinitely rich. “Consolation” (A.V.) represents the Greek noun corresponding to the verb “comfort” of 2 Thessalonians 2:17. It is comfort in its older sense of heartening, encouragement, rather than consolation: see note on “comfort,” 1 Thessalonians 3:2.
    A “good hope” is such a hope as it is good to have, that gives worth and joy to life. See note on “hope,” 1 Thessalonians 1:3.
    These kindred blessings flowing from the love of God, are given in grace—not out of merit, and as to the worthy; but in the way of bounty to the undeserving. See notes on “grace,” ch. 2 Thessalonians 1:12 and 1 Thessalonians 1:1.”

The eternal comfort and good hope of believers include the Kingdom of Heaven as described in Revelation Chapter 21.

12.)  The Eternal Purpose.

Eph 3:11, “This was in accordance with the eternal purpose which He carried out in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers

(11) The eternal purpose.—Properly, the purpose of the ages; but the sense clearly is, of the purpose of God (see Ephesians 1:11), conceived before the ages of His dispensation, and fulfilled through them. Hence the rendering of our version is substantially correct.

Which he purposed.—It should be, which He wrought, or made, for the word is quite distinct from the substantive “purpose,” and is in itself ambiguous, capable of meaning either ordained or worked out. Either sense will suit the passage; but the latter perhaps better, since the idea is throughout of the completion and manifestation of the mystery of God’s purpose in the Lord Jesus Christ.”

13.)  Eternal Life.

Mar 10:17, “As He was setting out on a journey, a man ran up to Him and knelt before Him, and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do so that I may inherit eternal life?”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

17–31. The Rich Young Ruler
17when he was gone forth] Literally, when He was going forth. He was just starting, it would seem, on His last journey towards Bethany.
one] He was young (Matthew 19:22), of great wealth, and a ruler of a local synagogue (Luke 18:18).
running] Running up to Him, apparently from behind, eager and breathless. Then he knelt before Him, as was usual before a venerated Rabbi.
what shall I do] He had probably observed our Lord’s gracious reception of little children, and he desired to have part in the Kingdom promised to them. But his question betrays his fundamental error. Not by doing, but by being, was an entrance into it to be obtained.”

Jhn 10:28, “and I give them eternal life, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.”

Luk 10:25, “And behold, a lawyer stood up and put Him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

Even a lawyer did not know how to have eternal life. He thought by doing one get eternal life. He did not know, eternal life is a gift of God. No one deserves it. No matter how good you are you are not good enough. No matter what you do you cannot inherit the eternal life.

Jhn 3:15, “so that everyone who believes will have eternal life in Him.”

Jhn 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  1.  For] Explaining how God wills eternal life to every one that believeth.
    loved the world] The whole human race: see on John 1:10. This would be a revelation to the exclusive Pharisee, brought up to believe that God loved only the chosen people. The word for ‘love,’ agapân, is very frequent both in this Gospel and in the First Epistle, and may be considered characteristic of S. John.
    that he gave his only begotten] This would be likely to remind Nicodemus of the offering of Isaac. Comp. 1 John 4:9Hebrews 11:17Romans 8:32. See note on John 1:14.
    everlasting life] The Greek is the same as in the previous verse, and the translation should be the same, eternal life. ‘Eternal life’ is one of the phrases of which S. John is fond. It occurs 17 times in the Gospel (only eight in the Synoptics) and six times in the First Epistle. In neither Gospel nor Epistle is ‘eternal’ (aiônios) applied to anything but ‘life.’ On aiônios, which of itself does not necessarily mean ‘everlasting’ or ‘unending,’ see note on Matthew 25:46.
    16–21. It is much disputed whether what follows is a continuation of Christ’s discourse, or the comment of the Evangelist upon it. The fact that terms characteristic of S. John’s theology are put into the mouth of Christ, e.g. ‘only-begotten’ and ‘the Light,’ cannot settle the question: the substance may still be our Lord’s, though the wording is S. John’s. It seems unlikely that S. John would give us no indication of the change from Christ’s words to his own, if the discourse with Nicodemus really came to a full stop in John 3:15. See on John 3:31-36.”

Jhn 4:14, “but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never be thirsty; but the water that I will give him will become in him a fountain of water 

springing up to eternal life.”

Barnes’ Notes on the Bible

The water that I shall give him – Jesus here refers, without doubt, to his own teaching, his “grace,” his “spirit,” and to the benefits which come into the soul that embraces his gospel. It is a striking image, and especially in Eastern countries, where there are vast deserts, and often a great want of water. The soul by nature is like such a desert, or like a traveler wandering through such a desert. It is thirsting for happiness, and seeking it everywhere, and finds it not. It looks in all directions and tries all objects, but in vain. Nothing meets its desires. Though a sinner seeks for joy in wealth and pleasures, yet he is not satisfied. He still thirsts for more, and seeks still for happiness in some new enjoyment. To such a weary and unsatisfied sinner the grace of Christ is “as cold waters to a thirsty soul.”

Shall never thirst – He shall be “satisfied” with this, and will not have a sense of want, a distressing feeling that it is not adapted to him. He who drinks this will not wish to seek for happiness in other objects. “Satisfied” with the grace of Christ, he will not desire the pleasures and amusements of this world. And this will be forever – in this world and the world to come. “Whosoever” drinketh of this all who partake of the gospel – shall be “forever” satisfied with its pure and rich joys.

Shall be in him – The grace of Christ shall be in his heart; or the principles of religion shall abide with him.

A well of water – There shall be a constant supply, an unfailing fountain; or religion shall live constantly with him.

Springing up – This is a beautiful image, It shall bubble or spring up like a fountain. It is not like a stagnant pool – not like a deep well, but like an ever-living fountain, that flows at all seasons of the year, in heat and cold, and in all external circumstances of weather, whether foul or fair, wet or dry. So religion always lives; and, amid all changes of external circumstances – in heat and cold, hunger and thirst, prosperity and adversity, life, persecution, contempt, or death – it still lives on, and refreshes and cheers the soul.

Into everlasting life – It is not temporary, like the supply of our natural wants; it is not changing in its nature; it is not like a natural fountain or spring of water, to play a While and then die away, as all natural springs will at the end of the world. It is eternal in its nature and supply, and will continue to live on forever. We may learn here:

  1. that the Christian has a never-failing source of consolation adapted to all times and circumstances.
  2. that religion has its seat in the heart, and that it should constantly live there.
  3. that it sheds its blessings on a world of sin, and is manifest by a continual life of piety, like a constant flowing spring.
  4. 4. that its end is everlasting life. It will continue forever; and “whosoever drinks of this shall never thirst, but his piety shall be in his heart a pure fountain “springing up to eternal joy.”

Jhn 5:24, “Truly, truly, I say to you, the one who hears My Word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  •  He that heareth] We see from this that ‘whom He will’ (John 5:21) implies no arbitrary selection. It is each individual who decides for himself whether he will hear and believe.
    believeth on him that sent me] Omit ‘on;’ there is no preposition in the Greek.
    hath everlasting life] Or, hath eternal life: see on John 3:16. Note the tense; he hath it already, it is not a reward to be bestowed hereafter: see on John 3:36.
    shall not come into condemnation] Better, cometh not into judgment.
    is passed from death into life] Or, is passed over out of death into life (comp. John 13:11 John 3:14). This is evidently equivalent to escaping judgment and attaining eternal life, clearly shewing that death is spiritual death, and the resurrection from it spiritual also. This cannot refer to the resurrection of the body.”

Jhn 3:36, The one who believes in the Son has 

eternal life; but the one who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  •  hath everlasting life] Or, eternal life (see on John 3:16). Note the tense; ‘hath’ not ‘shall have.’ Believers are already in possession of eternal life. Christians often think of eternal life as something yet to be won. It has been already given to them; the question is whether they will lose it again or not. The struggle is not to gain but to retain. Comp. John 17:3.
    he that believeth not] This may also mean he that obeyeth not, and this is better, for it is not the same word as ‘he that believeth’ with the negative added. The same correction seems to be needed, Acts 14:2Acts 19:9Romans 11:30 (see margin). Comp. Hebrews 4:6Hebrews 4:111 Peter 4:17.
    shall not see] Not only has not beheld, but has no prospect of beholding.
    the wrath of God] This phrase occurs nowhere else in the Gospels. It is the necessary complement of the love of God. If there is love for those who believe, there must be wrath for those who refuse to believe. Comp. Matthew 3:7Luke 3:7Romans 1:18Romans 9:22Romans 12:19.
    abideth] Not ‘shall come to him:’ this is his portion already. He is under a ban until he believes, and he refuses to believe: therefore the ban remains. He, like the believer, not only will have but has his portion; it rests with him also, whether the portion continues his. He has to struggle, not to avert a sentence, but to be freed from it.”

Jhn 17:3, “And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ 

whom You have sent.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

3And this is life eternal] More exactly, But the life eternal is this. ‘The life eternal’ means that which has just been mentioned; and ‘is this’ means ‘this is what it consists in:’ comp. John 3:19John 15:12.
that they might know] Literally, in order that they may recognise; comp. John 6:29John 15:121 John 3:111 John 3:231 John 5:32 John 1:6. The eternal life is spoken of as already present (see on John 3:36John 5:24John 6:47John 6:54); hence ‘may,’ not ‘might.’ Moreover it is the appropriation of the knowledge that is specially emphasized; hence ‘recognise’ rather than simply ‘know.’ Comp. Wis 15:3.
thee the only true God] i.e. ‘Thee as the only true God.’ For ‘true’ see note on John 1:9 and comp. John 4:23John 6:32John 15:1 : ‘the only true God’ is directed against the many false, spurious gods of the heathen. This portion of the truth was what the Gentiles so signally failed to recognise.
Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent] Better, Him whom Thou didst send—Jesus Christ; or, Jesus as Christ. This portion of the truth the Jews failed to recognise. But the words are not without difficulty, even when, we insert the ‘as;’ and the run of the Greek words is rather against the insertion of ‘as.’ If ‘Christ’ were a predicate and not part of the proper name we should expect ‘Jesus, whom Thou didst send, as Christ.’ Probably in this verse we have the substance and not the exact words of Christ’s utterance. That He should use the name ‘Jesus’ here is perhaps improbable; that He should anticipate the use of ‘Jesus Christ’ as a proper name is very improbable; and the expression ‘the true God’ is not used elsewhere by Christ and is used by S. John (1 John 5:20), We conclude, therefore, that the wording here is the Evangelist’s, perhaps abbreviated from the actual words.”

Jhn 17:2, “just as You gave Him authority over all mankind, so that to all whom You have given Him, He may give eternal life.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

2As thou hast given him power] Better, Even as Thou gavest Him authority. The authority was given once for all, and is the reason for the petition in John 17:1. Comp. John 5:27.
all flesh] A Hebraism not used elsewhere in this Gospel. Comp. Matthew 24:22Luke 3:6Acts 2:17Romans 3:20, &c. Fallen man, man in his frailty, is specially meant; but the Second Adam has dominion also over ‘all sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field, the fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea.’ Psalm 8:7-8. In the following texts ‘all flesh’ includes the brute creation; Genesis 6:19Genesis 7:15-16Genesis 7:21Genesis 8:17Genesis 9:11Genesis 9:15-17Psalm 136:25Jeremiah 32:27Jeremiah 45:5. Once more, therefore, Jewish enclusiveness is condemned. The Messiah is King of ‘all flesh,’ not of the Jews only.
that he should give, &c.] Literally, in order that all that Thou hast given Him, He should give to them eternal life. ‘All that’ is neuter singular; ‘to them’ is masculine plural. Believers are given to Christ as a united whole; they earn eternal life as individuals. Comp. John 1:11John 6:37.”

Rom 5:21, “so that, as sin reigned in death, so also grace would reign through righteousness to 

eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

21that as sin, &c.] More lit. that as the sin reigned in death, so also may the grace reign through righteousness, &c.—“The sin reigned in death:”—i.e., death was the expression of its power. Cp. Romans 5:12-14 and notes.—“May grace reign:”—such is the exact rendering, which should be kept, though Gr. idiom makes E. V. (“might”) grammatically possible. St Paul is still thinking of the succession of future believers.
through righteousness] i.e. “through the gift of righteousness,” (Romans 5:17,) Justification. Grace provides the Method of the justification of the ungodly; it gives them a position of acceptance in the eye of the sacred Law; constitutes them, for the purposes of that Law, righteous persons.—We do not for a moment here forget that a moral change is intended, and effected, in the subjects of grace; but the argument, up to this point, has in view not this yet, but the judicial acceptance which is the prior condition of it;—Justification, not yet Sanctification.
unto eternal life] The final issue of the “reign of grace.” See Romans 6:22Romans 8:32, and note on Romans 2:7.
by Jesus Christ our Lord] Well do these holy words close that great section of the argument which specially explains the Way of Pardon. Jesus Christ is the one Cause and Means of Pardon, and therefore indeed also the “Lord” of those who through Him are accepted and glorified.”

Rom 6:22, “But now having been freed from sin and enslaved to God, you derive your benefit, resulting in 

sanctification, and the outcome, eternal life.

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

22now] i.e. as things are, by Divine mercy.
to God] The real Master of the justified. The figures, “Obedience,” “Righteousness,” “Rule of Doctrine,” &c., are now laid aside, that He to whom they refer may at last appear in the Divine simplicity of His ownership over the soul.
ye have your fruit] The verb, by position, is emphatic. “You now have, what you then lacked, namely fruit; ‘your’ fruit, a real and happy profit and result from your new principle.”
unto holinessunto sanctification; see on Romans 6:19. The “fruit” amounted to, consisted in, a steady course of self-denial and conflict against sin.
everlasting life] i.e. in this context, the bliss of the life to come; the “sight of the Lord” which is attained only by the path of “sanctification” (Hebrews 12:14); being, as it is, the issue and crown of the process.—Here, as in many other cases, note the varying reference of a single phrase. “Eternal life” is sometimes viewed as present (John 3:36John 5:24😉 sometimes, and more often, as future (e.g. John 4:36). In the first case it is the grace of regeneration, in the second, the developement of this in the glory to come.”

Rom 6:23, “For the wages of sin is death, but the gracious gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  •  For] The “for” refers to the last statement. The verse may be paraphrased, “For whereas the wages of sin is death, the gift of God is, as we have now said, eternal life.”
    wages] The Gr. is same word as Luke 3:141 Corinthians 9:72 Corinthians 11:8. It strictly denotes pay for military service; and the metaphor here therefore points not to slavery so much as to the warfare of Romans 6:13 (where see note on weapons). The word is full of pregnant truth. Death, in its most awful sense, is no more than the reward and result of sin; and sin is nothing less than a conflict against God.
    gift] The Gr. is same word as free gift, ch. Romans 5:15.—This word here is, so to speak, a paradox. We should have expected one which would have represented life eternal as the issue of holiness, to balance the truth that death is the issue of sin. And in respect of holiness being the necessary preliminary to the future bliss, this would have been entirely true. But St Paul here all the more forcibly presses the thought that salvation is a gift wholly apart from human merit. The eternal Design, the meritorious Sacrifice, the life-giving and love-imparting Spirit, all alike are a Gift absolutely free. The works of sin are the procuring cause of Death; the course of sanctification is not the procuring cause of Life Eternal, but only the training for the enjoyment of what is essentially a Divine gift “in Jesus Christ our Lord.”
    through] Lit., and better, in. The “life eternal” is to be found only “in Him,” by those who “come to Him.” His work is the one meritorious cause; and in His hands also is the actual gift. (John 17:2-3).”

14.)  Eternal Inheritance

Heb 9:15, “For this reason He is the mediator of a new covenant, so that, since a death has taken place for the redemption of the violations that were committed under the first covenant, those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

Matthew Poole’s Commentary

And for this cause he is the Mediator of the new testament: as Christ’s priesthood and service, his sacrifice and purifying, so the testamental covenant, and his administration of it, did incomparably exceed all those of Aaron’s; so that for what was spoken, Hebrews 9:14, even the effects of his sacrifice, the justification and sanctification of sinners, is he the great gospel High Priest, the mediating person between God and sinners, confirming and making effectual by his death God’s testamental covenant to them, which isfor the administration of it the very best and last, in which God bequeatheth pardon, reconciliation, righteousness, holiness, adoption, and heirship to an eternal inheritance to penitent, believing sinners.
That by means of death; the death of Christ himself, God-man, the most excellent sacrifice, without which there could be no remission, Hebrews 9:22, nor the testament of God about it put in force; for which cause he was the Mediator of it, that they should value him so much the more for his death, fulfilling therein all his types, and reach that which was unattainable by these, both for their fathers and themselves.
For the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament; for the satisfying the justice of God for the wrong their sins had done it, paying that price without which they could not be expiated, by which they were remissible, and to the duty qualified, actually forgiven, even the sins of those who were under the Mosaical administration of the covenant. Aaron, Samuel, David, and the saints, believers in that time, had their transgressions pardoned by virtue of the death of Christ to come, shadowed by these sacrifices typifying him and his death in their own times. What the death of beasts or birds could do for them, his did, delivering them from the guilt and punishment of their transgressions, under which otherwise they must have perished for ever: this Peter publisheth, Acts 15:11. This virtue of Christ’s death is not mentioned exclusive of New Testament sins being remitted by it; but if it did expiate those old ones, reaching so much backward, even to Aaron, it will much more expiate those under the New Testament to penitent, believing, praying sinners for it, as those Old Testament transgressors were.
They which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance: such as on God’s call repent and believe on the Lord Jesus, that Angel of the covenant then revealed to them, and enter into covenant with him, Exodus 23:20-23; compare 1 Corinthians 10:3,4,9 Joh 5:45-47; such as by it have sins expiated, consciences purged, so as to have a title to and fitness by the work of the Spirit for the heavenly Canaan, Romans 4:16,24,25; may be put into the possession of that eternal inheritance made over to them by promise, and which the Spirit gave them an earnest of here, Hebrews 12:10,14,16; compare Ephesians 1:13,14 1 Peter 1:3,4. All this is confirmed to these by Christ’s death.”

15.)  The Eternal Kingdom.

2Pe 1:11, “for in this way the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior 

Jesus Christ will be abundantly supplied to you.”

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 11. – For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly; rather, as in the Revised Version, for thus shall be richly supplied unto you the entrance. The verb ἐπ῞ιχορηγηθήσεται looks back to ἐπιχορηγήσατε in verse 5, and “richly” to “abound” in verse 8. If we do our poor best in supplying the graces mentioned above, the entrance shall be richly supplied. St. Peter seems to imply that there will be degrees of glory hereafter proportioned to our faithfulness in the use of God’s gifts here. The adverb “richly” is fitly joined with the verb ἐπιχορηγεῖν, which signifies properly to provide the expenses for a chorus. The article defines the entrance as the great object of the Christian’s hope. Into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; rather, the eternal kingdom. Notice the exact correspondence of the Greek words here, τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν καὶ Σωτῆρος Ἰησοῦ Ξριστοῦ, with these in verse 2, τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν καὶ Σωτῆρος Ἰησοῦ Ξριστοῦ, as a strong argument in favour of the translation, “Our God and Saviour Jesus Christ,” in that verse. 2 Peter 1:11”

The cited above are benefits and blessings of believers in Christ Jesus. The below are the calamities and sufferings for unbelievers. There are two eternities for you to choose.

  1.  The Bad Eternal.

16.)  Eternal Judgment.

Heb 6:2, “of instruction about washings and laying on of hands, and about the resurrection of the dead and eternal judgment.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

2of the doctrine of baptisms] Perhaps rather, “of ablutions” (Hebrews 9:10Mark 7:3-4), both (1) from the use of the plural (which cannot be explained either physically of “triple immersion,” or spiritually of the baptisms of “water, spirit, blood”); and (2) because baptismos is never used of Christian baptism, but only baptisma. If, as we believe, the writer of this Epistle was Apollos, he, as an original adherent “of John’s baptism,” might feel all the more strongly that the doctrine of “ablutions” belonged, even in its highest forms, to the elements of Christianity. Perhaps he, like Josephus (Antt. xviii. 5, § 2), would have used the word baptismos, and not baptisma, even of John’s baptism. But the word probably implies the teaching which enable Christian catechumens to discriminate beween Jewish washings and Christian baptism.
of laying on of hands] For ordination (Numbers 8:10-11Acts 6:6Acts 13:2-3Acts 19:6, &c.), confirmation (Acts 8:17), healings (Mark 16:18), &c. Dr Mill observes that the order of doctrines here enumerated corresponds with the system of teaching respecting them in the Acts of the Apostles—Repentance, Faith, Baptism, Confirmation, Resurrection, Judgment.
and of resurrection of the dead] These topics had been severally prominent in the early Apostolic teaching (Acts 2:38Acts 3:19-21Acts 26:20). Even the doctrine of the resurrection belonged to Judaism (Luke 20:37-38Daniel 12:2Acts 23:8).
and of eternal judgment] The doctrine respecting that sentence (krima, “doom”), whether of the good or of the evil, which shall follow the judgment (krisis) in the future life. This was also known under the Old Covenant, Daniel 7:9-10.—The surprise with which we first read this passage only arises from our not realising the Author’s meaning, which is this,—your Christian maturity (τελείοτηςHebrews 6:1) demands that you should rise far above your present vacillating condition. You would have no hankering after Judaism if you understood the more advanced teaching about the Melchisedek Priesthood—that is the Eternal Priesthood—of Christ which I am going to set before you. It is then needless that we should dwell together on the topics which form the training of neophytes and catechumens, the elements of religious teaching which even belonged to your old position as Jews; but let us enter upon topics which belong to the instruction of Christian manhood. The verse has its value for those who think that “Gospel” teaching consists exclusively in the iteration of threadbare shibboleths. We may observe that of these six elements of catechetical instruction two are spiritual qualities—repentance, faith; two are significant and symbolic acts—washings and laying on of hands; two are eschatological truths—resurrection and judgment.

17.)  Eternal Fire.

Mat 18:8, “And if your hand or your foot is causing you to sin, cut it off and throw it away from you; it is better for you to enter life maimed or

without a foot, than to have two hands or two 

feet and be thrown into the eternal fire.

Bengel’s Gnomen

Matthew 18:8Εἰ δὲκ.τ.λ., but if, etc.) He who is not careful to avoid offence to himself, will cause offence to others, and vice versa.—χεὶρποὺςhand—foot) In the impulse of sinning, acting ill, going where we ought not, the hands or other members are urged on by the animal spirits rushing together into them: and there is great propriety in the expressions employed by our Lord: for the imperative ἔκκοψον (cut off), holds good with regard to the hand, in as far as it is thus affected, and so on with the rest.—ζωὴνlife) opposed to eternal fire.—κωλὸνκ.τ.λ., lame, etc.) The godly, forsooth, in this world are lame, deaf, dumb, etc., both to themselves and others;[812] see Psalm 38:14. This must be taken of the time of mortification, not that of glorification; for those members which have been most mortified will shine the most in glory; see Galatians 6:17.—ΑἸΏΝΙΟΝeternal) The word, eternal, signifies sometimes in the Old Testament a finite eternity more clearly than it does in the New.
[812] Comp. Revelation 3:171 Corinthians 4:8-13.—ED.”

Mat 25:41, “Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, you accursed people, into the

eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels.”

18.)  Eternal Restraints.

Jde 1:6, “And angels who did not keep their own 

domain but abandoned their proper dwelling place, 

these He has kept in eternal restraints under 

darkness for the judgment of the great day.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

6And the angels which kept not their first estate] The two last words answer to a Greek term which may either mean “beginning,” i.e. their original constitution, the meaning adopted in the English version, or “sovereignty.” The latter sense may mean either that they rejected the sovereignty of God, or that they abandoned the position of power and dignity which He had assigned them. Looking to the fact that the term is used in the New Testament, as by Jewish writers, as describing a class of angels (the “principalities” of Ephesians 1:21Ephesians 3:10Ephesians 6:12Colossians 1:16Colossians 2:15), the latter explanation is probably the true one. On the nature of the sin referred to, see notes on 2 Peter 2:4.
but left their own habitation] As this is named as the sin, not as the punishment, it seems to imply a descent from the region of heaven to that of earth, like that implied in the language of Genesis 6:2.
he hath reserved in everlasting chains …] The words, like those of 2 Peter 2:4, seem to indicate a distinction between the angels who were thus punished, and the “demons” or “unclean spirits” with Satan at their head, who exercise a permitted power as the tempters, accusers, and destroyers of mankind, the “world-rulers of this darkness” of Ephesians 6:12, who even “in heavenly places” carry on their warfare against the souls of men. It is possible that St Jude recognised such a distinction. His language, like that of St Peter, follows the traditions of the Book of Enoch, which speaks of fallen angels as kept in their prison-house till the day of judgment (xxii. 4), and those which are represented by the Midrasch Ruth in the Book of Zohar, “After that the sons of God had begotten sons, God took them and brought them to the mount of darkness and bound them in chains of darkness which reach to the middle of the great abyss.” A fuller form of the Rabbinic legend relates that the angels Asa and Asael charged God with folly in having created man who so soon provoked Him, and that He answered that if they had been on earth they would have sinned as man had done. “And thereupon He allowed them to descend to earth, and they sinned with the daughters of men. And when they would have returned to Heaven they could not, for they were banished from their former habitation and brought into the dark mountains of the earth” (Nischmath Chaim in Nork’s Rabbinische Quellen und Parallelen). The resemblance between this tradition and that of the Zoroastrian legend of the fall of Ahriman and his angels, and again of the punishment of the Titans by Zeus in the mythology of Hesiod (Theogon. 729), shews the wide-spread currency of the belief referred to. How far this allusive reference to a tradition which the writers accepted stamps it with a Divine authority as an article of faith is a question the answer to which depends on external considerations as to the nature of the inspiration by which the writers who so referred were guided. The office of the interpreter is limited to stating what, as far as can be gathered, was actually in the thoughts of the writer.

19.)  Eternal Punishment.

Mat 25:46, “These will go away into eternal 

punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

46. The same Greek word (aiônios) is translated everlasting (punishment) and (life) eternal; also in each case the adjective in the Greek text follows the noun—the place of emphasis. The adjective aiônios (eternal) = of or belonging to (1) an aiôn or period, (a) past, (b) present, (c) future, or (2) to a succession of aiôns or periods. It does not, therefore, in itself=“unending.” But life eternal, which is “to know the true God and Jesus Christ” (John 17:3), can only be conceived of as unending and infinite; cp. “Art thou not from everlasting, O Lord my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die” (Habakkuk 1:12).
punishment] (Greek, kolasis), not “vengeance,” but punishment that checks or reforms.”

God is not willing any should perish because Hell is eternal punishment. There is no way out.

Mat 25:31-46, “But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne. And all the nations will be gathered before Him; and He will separate them from one another, just as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats; and He will put the sheep on His right, but the goats on the left. Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared 

for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.” Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink?

And when did we see You as a stranger, and invite 

You in, or naked, and clothe You? And when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’

And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it for one of the least of these brothers or sisters of Mine, you did it for Me.’ Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, you accursed people, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink; I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.’

Then they themselves also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or as a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not take care of You?’ Then He will answer them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it for one of the least of these, you did not do it for Me, either.’ These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

20.)  Eternal Damnation.

Mar 3:29, “but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal damnation”—

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges

  •  but he that shall blaspheme] The sin, against which these words are a terrible but merciful warning, is not so much an act, as a state of sin, on the part of one, who in defiance of light and knowledge, of set purpose rejects, and not only rejects but perseveres in rejecting, the warnings of conscience, and the Grace of the Holy Spirit, who blinded by religious bigotry rather than ascribe a good work to the Spirit of Good prefer to ascribe it to the Spirit of Evil, and thus wilfully put “bitter for sweet” and “sweet for bitter,” “darkness for light” and “light for darkness.” Such a state if persevered in and not repented of excludes from pardon, for it is the sin unto death spoken of in 1 John 5:16.”

21.)  Eternal Destruction.

2Th 1:9, “These people will pay the penalty of 

eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power.”

Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers

  •  Punished with everlasting destruction specifies the “vengeance” to be taken. But the word “destruction” does not stand absolutely and alone as a synonym for “annihilation.” This passage, in itself, gives us no reason to suppose that the lost will be “destroyed” in the ordinary sense of the word. They are to be destroyed from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of His power”—i.e., cut off from it for ever. The “presence”—or, more literally here, ”the face—of the Lord,” as well as “the glory of His power,” is a metaphor from the courts of Oriental kings, where only honoured courtiers are admitted to spend their time in the immediate and familiar presence of the sovereign. Familiar contact with Christ hereafter, which will be accorded to all the saved, was God’s ideal intention for the lost as well, therefore it is a positive “destruction” to be banished from it. But to the Jews, who looked for a Messiah who should keep regal state, the punishment was peculiarly appropriate. The word is used besides in 1Corinthians 5:51Thessalonians 5:31Timothy 6:9. As for the word rendered “everlasting” (or eternal, for it is the same which is used, e.g., Hebrews 6:2), it would certainly convey to St. Paul’s readers the notion of incessant duration in time; it is, of course, only an adaptation to human language to speak of time at all in such a case, as we cannot tell what may take the place of time in the next dispensation; however, so far as the actual words go, there is nothing in these passages (Matthew 18:8Matthew 25:41Matthew 25:46Mark 3:29Hebrews 6:2Jude 1:7) to suggest any future alteration in the state of the lost. In this, as in some other doctrines, there seem to be two distinct sets of passages, the logical reconciliation of which in our present state seems almost impossible.”

You have been confronted with the eternals, the good vs. the bad. God does not want you to be destroyed. You can make the right choice by repent of your sins and believe in the Lord Jesus as your God and Savior.

You can do it now.

The mayors of Los Angeles, Washington, D.C. and Chicago are for crooks and criminals, they must be dismissed and deported. All the facts point to the need, Ukraine must be destroyed and its leader executed in order to end the war. Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis are terrorists and the countries that harbor them must be destroyed all together.

Since Gaza, West Bank, etc. are the Jewish lands, Palestinians must evacuate from all Jewish lands and flee to Arab lands where they are safe to receive international aid and build a Palestinian state of their choice.

The leader of Ukraine is corrupt and evil. Ukrainians are stupid to follow the path of destruction. He was the one who instigated war with Russia. Now he asks for security guarantees. The nincompoop should be executed to end the war.

Palestinians, Africans, and others serve as example of peoples who want to eat and do not want to work. UN, WHO, EU, etc. champion their cause. Palestinians do not want evacuate from Gaza, Jewish lands to resettle in Arab lands. Because they will lose their status as refugees where they can get their food, fuel, water, medicine and everything for free from international community. These problems multiply with the passage of time.

UN, EU, GERMANY, UK, FRANCE, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZELAND, ETC. are strange and unreasonable peoples. Who is stopping Palestinians to build a Palestinian state in an Arab land? It is wrong and illegal to build a Palestinian state in Jewish land (Gaza, West Bank, etc.). That is the cause of conflict.

The fact that National Guards have to patrol Washington, D.C. with weapons speaks loudly and badly of the capital. The mayor of Washington, D.C. should be dismissed and deported. All the more urgent the national capital should move to Lincoln, Nebraska, without delay.

The mayor of Washington, D.C. bowed to the illegal acts of street people who set up tents on public streets. She should be dismissed and deported. The National Guards are empowered to trash the tents, clear the streets and vanish street people. Los Angeles is a disgraced city because the California Governor and Los Angeles mayor failed to solve the problems of street people who not only set up tents on public streets, but also urinate and defecate. All the more urgent for the national capital to move to Lincoln, Nebraska. In the face of national debt exceeding $37 trillion, the people can save money by abolishing the House, retain the unicameral legislation of Senate to move also to Lincoln Nebraska. All this can be accomplished legally by a national refrerendum. America is ruined by dark and evil forces.

Heroes of all races who sacrified their lives for China in the war against Japanese aggression should be celebrated and remembered. The descendants of them are eternal friends of China. Descendants of American Flying Tiers whose forefathers had sacrified their lives in the war against Japanese aggression and atrocities must always be honored and remembered. The Chinse government must treat them as eternal friends, and they are welcome to China anytime. Such blood bonds must be appreciated and maintained forever.

The world wrongly marks the anniversary of dropping atomic bomb on Hiroshima while neglecting the Japanse aggression and atrocities of killing 35 million innocent Chinese without remorse or reparations. UN overappointed unqualified blacks and media have given too much covergage to unworthy black spoke-persons. It is amazing no matter how beautifully white organizations and individuals hail human rights, civil rights, democracy, development, technology, benefits, justice, etc., what they are actually after is MONEY. This can be said equally true about blacks.

Pet economy is wasted economy. Money should better be spent on nutrition and education of children and orphanes. In cities all dogs must have annual license of Y5,000, cats Y4,000, and birds Y3,000. It is exempt for rural areas. If a dog defecates in public place, it shall be fined Y3,000 plus cleanup by owner or walker.

Global media highlight the number of Palestinians who have died, but fail to consider why Palestinian Authority and Palestinians do not want to evacuate from Jewish land and resettle in Arab land. Palestinians, men and women, young and old, are shameless beggars. They remain in Gaza to qualify for refugees so that they can get everything free from international community. The international community is ignorant of the fact that GAZA and related territories all belong to the Jews. Israel has every right to take back and take over Gaza and related territories. Palestinians must evacuate and relocate to Arab lands, make a living and establish its own Palestinian state without further delay.

French nincompoop Macron reognized Palestine as a state but failed to know that Palestine does not have territory and sovereignty. Leaders of UK, GERMANY, AUSTRLALIA would commit the same mistake by supporting terrorists. Hamas, Hezebolla, Houthis are wicked terrorists, they should be destroyed without mercy. Leaders of Palestinian Authority are guilty for the death and malnutrition of children because they lead Palestinians to the path of destruction. They could have led Palestinians to lands of Arabs to earn a living and build their own Palestinian state. Palestinians (young & old, man & woman) are most shameless beggars for food & water, they don’t want to go to an Arab land to earn a living and build their own Palestinian state. Africa amid famine has the most fat people in the world, they are also shameless beggars. Ukranians are shameless beggars for weapons, they do not have reason for existence. Harvard though the richest university in the world is a shameless beggar for US aid. Japan claims to practice democracy, its ruling party lost election miserably, yet its prime minister shamelessly wants to stay in power. The world must realize years of aid to Africa produced nothing, trillions of dollars went to black holes.  Africa is corrupt, unmotivated and useless. Black leaders and politicians take advantage of it; dress well, eat well, and live a luxurious life style. Black problems can be solved only by Blacks. Let Africa alone to survive on its own. Blacks create most of the problems in the world, given too much coverage and platform in world media, overappointed and given too many spokespersons and positions in UN. Any nation who shares destiny with Africa will be doomed. Nothing good comes out of Africa: primitive religion, superstition, spiritism, orgies, black magic, tribalism, voordoism.

If the Texas flooding is an act of God; Ukraine conflict, and conflicts of Hamas, Hezbollah, and Houthis must be acts of the devil.

India must coexist with China, at the same time India and South Africa must be expelled from BRICS besause they do not remain true to BRICS’ founding mission, they do not belong, must be replaced by Indonesia and Saudi Arabia. US and EU must not rearm Ukraine, let Russia destroy it, and never to be rebuilt. The leader of Ukraine must also be executed.

Palestinian Authorities are guilty for leading Palestinians to a path of death, children died and suffer malnutrition.  Palestian Authorities do not lead Palestinians (who are Arabs) to a land of Arabs to work for a living and build the Palestinian state.

American forces have successfully wiped out three Iranian nuclear sites through B-2 bombers. The “everlasting consequence” is Iran cannot be a nuclear threat anymore. I stand with the overwhelming majority of Dutch people to demolish NATO — the war machine.

ON September 3, 2025 for China to mark 80th anniversary of victory over Japanese aggression and fascism is a historical necessity and hard-earned victory.

The mayors of Los Angeles, Washington, D.C. and Chicago are for crooks and criminals, they must be dismissed and deported. All the facts point to the need, Ukraine must be destroyed and its leader executed in order to end the war. Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis are terrorists and the countries that harbor them must be destroyed all together.

Since Gaza, West Bank, etc. are the Jewish lands, Palestinians must evacuate from all Jewish lands and flee to Arab lands where they are safe to receive international aid and build a Palestinian state of their choice.

The leader of Ukraine is corrupt and evil. Ukrainians are stupid to follow the path of destruction. He was the one who instigated war with Russia. Now he asks for security guarantees. The nincompoop should be executed to end the war.

Palestinians, Africans, and others serve as example of peoples who want to eat and do not want to work. UN, WHO, EU, etc. champion their cause. Palestinians do not want evacuate from Gaza, Jewish lands to resettle in Arab lands. Because they will lose their status as refugees where they can get their food, fuel, water, medicine and everything for free from international community. These problems multiply with the passage of time.

UN, EU, GERMANY, UK, FRANCE, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZELAND, ETC. are strange and unreasonable peoples. Who is stopping Palestinians to build a Palestinian state in an Arab land? It is wrong and illegal to build a Palestinian state in Jewish land (Gaza, West Bank, etc.). That is the cause of conflict.

The fact that National Guards have to patrol Washington, D.C. with weapons speaks loudly and badly of the capital. The mayor of Washington, D.C. should be dismissed and deported. All the more urgent the national capital should move to Lincoln, Nebraska, without delay.

The mayor of Washington, D.C. bowed to the illegal acts of street people who set up tents on public streets. She should be dismissed and deported. The National Guards are empowered to trash the tents, clear the streets and vanish street people. Los Angeles is a disgraced city because the California Governor and Los Angeles mayor failed to solve the problems of street people who not only set up tents on public streets, but also urinate and defecate. All the more urgent for the national capital to move to Lincoln, Nebraska. In the face of national debt exceeding $37 trillion, the people can save money by abolishing the House, retain the unicameral legislation of Senate to move also to Lincoln Nebraska. All this can be accomplished legally by a national refrerendum. America is ruined by dark and evil forces.

Heroes of all races who sacrified their lives for China in the war against Japanese aggression should be celebrated and remembered. The descendants of them are eternal friends of China. Descendants of American Flying Tiers whose forefathers had sacrified their lives in the war against Japanese aggression and atrocities must always be honored and remembered. The Chinse government must treat them as eternal friends, and they are welcome to China anytime. Such blood bonds must be appreciated and maintained forever.

The world wrongly marks the anniversary of dropping atomic bomb on Hiroshima while neglecting the Japanse aggression and atrocities of killing 35 million innocent Chinese without remorse or reparations. UN overappointed unqualified blacks and media have given too much covergage to unworthy black spoke-persons. It is amazing no matter how beautifully white organizations and individuals hail human rights, civil rights, democracy, development, technology, benefits, justice, etc., what they are actually after is MONEY. This can be said equally true about blacks.

Pet economy is wasted economy. Money should better be spent on nutrition and education of children and orphanes. In cities all dogs must have annual license of Y5,000, cats Y4,000, and birds Y3,000. It is exempt for rural areas. If a dog defecates in public place, it shall be fined Y3,000 plus cleanup by owner or walker.

Global media highlight the number of Palestinians who have died, but fail to consider why Palestinian Authority and Palestinians do not want to evacuate from Jewish land and resettle in Arab land. Palestinians, men and women, young and old, are shameless beggars. They remain in Gaza to qualify for refugees so that they can get everything free from international community. The international community is ignorant of the fact that GAZA and related territories all belong to the Jews. Israel has every right to take back and take over Gaza and related territories. Palestinians must evacuate and relocate to Arab lands, make a living and establish its own Palestinian state without further delay.

French nincompoop Macron reognized Palestine as a state but failed to know that Palestine does not have territory and sovereignty. Leaders of UK, GERMANY, AUSTRLALIA would commit the same mistake by supporting terrorists. Hamas, Hezebolla, Houthis are wicked terrorists, they should be destroyed without mercy. Leaders of Palestinian Authority are guilty for the death and malnutrition of children because they lead Palestinians to the path of destruction. They could have led Palestinians to lands of Arabs to earn a living and build their own Palestinian state. Palestinians (young & old, man & woman) are most shameless beggars for food & water, they don’t want to go to an Arab land to earn a living and build their own Palestinian state. Africa amid famine has the most fat people in the world, they are also shameless beggars. Ukranians are shameless beggars for weapons, they do not have reason for existence. Harvard though the richest university in the world is a shameless beggar for US aid. Japan claims to practice democracy, its ruling party lost election miserably, yet its prime minister shamelessly wants to stay in power. The world must realize years of aid to Africa produced nothing, trillions of dollars went to black holes.  Africa is corrupt, unmotivated and useless. Black leaders and politicians take advantage of it; dress well, eat well, and live a luxurious life style. Black problems can be solved only by Blacks. Let Africa alone to survive on its own. Blacks create most of the problems in the world, given too much coverage and platform in world media, overappointed and given too many spokespersons and positions in UN. Any nation who shares destiny with Africa will be doomed. Nothing good comes out of Africa: primitive religion, superstition, spiritism, orgies, black magic, tribalism, voordoism.

If the Texas flooding is an act of God; Ukraine conflict, and conflicts of Hamas, Hezbollah, and Houthis must be acts of the devil.

India must coexist with China, at the same time India and South Africa must be expelled from BRICS besause they do not remain true to BRICS’ founding mission, they do not belong, must be replaced by Indonesia and Saudi Arabia. US and EU must not rearm Ukraine, let Russia destroy it, and never to be rebuilt. The leader of Ukraine must also be executed.

Palestinian Authorities are guilty for leading Palestinians to a path of death, children died and suffer malnutrition.  Palestian Authorities do not lead Palestinians (who are Arabs) to a land of Arabs to work for a living and build the Palestinian state.

American forces have successfully wiped out three Iranian nuclear sites through B-2 bombers. The “everlasting consequence” is Iran cannot be a nuclear threat anymore. I stand with the overwhelming majority of Dutch people to demolish NATO — the war machine.

EUROPEAN Nations that recognize statehood of Palestine should take Palestinians in and give them aid of all kinds free. What is the use of recognizing the state of Palestine when Palestine does not have territory or sovereignty.

Ukraine nincompoop wants to use USA to fight against Russia. US must ditch Ukraine, EU and abolish NATO. EU alliance has proven meaningless. America must not guarantee security for any nation. International community, knowingly or unknowingly, is greatly mistaken. Gaza does not belong to Palestinians. Gaza belongs to Israeli. Palestinians are originally Arabs who invaded Palestine under British rule. It is good and right for Palestinians to relocate permanently in lands of Arabs to establish a Palestinian State of their own.

Hamas who killed hostages must be killed. Hamas who mistreated hostages must be punished.

Palestinians do not have homeland. Gaza, West Bank, Golan Heights, etc. belong to the Jews. It is good and right that Palestinians be resettled permanently in any Arab land to build a Palestinian State of their own.

Palestinians must be evacuated from the Jewish lands and resettle permanently in Arab lands to build their own Palestinian state.  Hamas, Hezbollah and  Houthis are terrorists to be destroyed completely. That is the only way to peace.

The world intentionally believes in a lie. Palestinians are originally Arabs who surreptitiously moved to Israel without pay under the British colony called Palestine. Arabs bred like rabbits and called themselves Palestinians. It is most reasonable for Arabs to move to lands of Arabs. For Palestinians do not have claim or resettlement right in the Jewish land of Gaza, West Bank, etc. No one would object for Palestinians to build a Palestinian state  in lands of Arabs, but Palestinians cannot build a Palestinian state in the Jewish land. Palestinians prefer to be called refugees in order to receive international aid every thing for free. Palestinians must move out or be removed from the Jewish land. TERRORISTS HAMAS, Hezbollah and Houthis MUST be destroyed completely.

Some fools believe and practice martial arts, boxing, violence, sports such as foot ball to save impoverished and backward nations. The truth is only hard work, being good farmers, herdsmen, fishermen, teachnicians, repairmen, engineers can save poor, undeveloped and backward nations.

There has been undeclared war in the southern border between Mexico and America, which has been neglected by previous American administrations. Mexico flagrantly serves as the open conduit for illegal migrants to enter California and crossing the river to enter Texas. The US must bomb Mexico City to warn them there can not be business as usual; in particular Mexico rejected American airplanes which carried deported illegal migrants to land. America must use its powerful military and National Guards to patrol the borders 24 hours. Fire and shoot at unlawful migrants who climb the wall; who try to destroy the wall; who do graffiti on the wall; who congregate within 100 feet of the wall; who cross the river; who cut the wire to deter the invasion. America declares to REJECT all asylum applicants for 100 years. No humanitarian aid shall be given to any unlawful migrants. In addition to American troops, state National guards must also be used to end the unlawful migrants invasion of America. They are despicable and deplorable peoples who fail in their countries and dream of entering America to live happily and doing nothing on welfare.  Immigration Officers must raid Los Angeles, East Los Angeles, San Bernardino,  Santa Ana, San Diego, Miami, etc. — dens of illegal aliens; the Welfare Department has their names and addressees.

Palestinians are also useless, shameless and worthless peoples to loot and rob international aid trucks. They are violent and unproductive. Leaders and politicians of Palestinian Authority lead them to the path of destruction by illegally occupying the Jewish lands. They do not want to go to the Arab lands to build their Palestinian state. They rather stay in Jewish lands in order to receive aid for nothing. No aid should enter to help Palestinians.

Hamas should be held responsible for killing hostages and be punished. The UN chief, Arab, Islamic, Black, EU nations speak and support terrorists should be gone. All UN high-paid officials should be replaced; and UN to be reformed in 100 days. It is a false peace. Gaza, West Bank, Golan Heights, Rafah, etc. are Jewish lands.  UN, WHO, Arab-Muslim-Black nations and Palestinian Authority speaks and supports terrorists Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis without making any demand. Palestinians do not have homeland in Jewish lands. They must evacuate from Jewish lands and go to lands of Arab to build a Palestinian state.  That would be true peace but they do not want peace.

China generously aided more than 100 nations, while their politicians and leaders practice corruption and looting of national treasures, their unproductive people sing and dance, drink alcohol and produce many children they cannot support.

CHINA is the most unusual nation on earth. The craftsmen or artisans of Tang, Sung, Yuan, Ming, Qing dynasties created untold and immense treasures for China.  Western nations like Britain, US, France, Germany, Italy, Russia, Austria-Hungary, and Japan (8-nation alliance) attacked, burned, robbed and stole and looted China national treasures at market value of more than US$100,000 trillion dollars. It is better to return them to China now, not wait until China makes demands by military force. Shame on Western nations who claim or pretend to be Christian. For the last 500 years, the manifest evils of the West are imperialism, colonialism and capitalism.

Today Chinese rescue workers respond to any natural disaster, the speed and service they built tents and houses unmatched by any nation. The American homeless people would rejoice just to have the Chinese tents. China must not waste its resources on the lazy people and unproductive peoples who eat and get fat, drink alcohol, sing and dance, have sex and produce many unwanted children they cannot support; like to play, enjoy games and sports but dislike hard work and discipline; cannot even produce food and basic necessities.

Xizang earthquake demonstrates what the Chinese government cares and does for its people. What does the U.S. government do for Californians in Los Angeles wildfires? The world must know the truth.

Japan intends to swallow up the United States Steel in order to control the American economy. This should be an eye-opener to the U.S. government that Japan is not a genuine ally. The US government made a  big mistake in rearming Japan. Singapore and Malaysia are wise to establish a special economic zone. Many underdeveloped nations fool China in holding one-China policy. By doing so they think they deserve China’s economic and financial aid. India has conflict of interest in Bricks, it is better to withdraw and  Indonesia is wise to join Bricks.

Leaders and politicians of Palestinians are evil and guilty because they lead Palestinians to the path of death and destruction through illegal occupation of the Jewish land and support of the terrorists. They give false hope to Palestinians in so-called “two-state solutions”. Palestinians are Arabs, no one would object to Palestinians building a Palestinian state in an Arab land. When Palestinians want to build a Palestinian state in the Jewish land, that is the cause of conflict. Palestinians speak and support terrorists Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis. Palestine leaders and politicians should evacuate all Palestinians from the land of the Jews and go to Arab lands to build a Palestinian state. That would be peace.

The Internet is a cesspool of corruption, fraud and iniquity. No nation polices and punishes their wrongdoings. Money making individuals and institutions would invade your computer to push their products even rejected. Many famous American universities and institutions are selling their fraudulent products for incurable problems. Many individuals and institutions claim to be Christian and shamelessly and aggressively ask for donations. Many sell famous works in public domain through subscriptions and purchases. Many distort and pervert the Word of God but ask for donations.

Any nation which restricts, bans, or interferes with China’s activities is illegal and unlawful. China can do anything within its sovereignty that does not violate the international law.

To appease the fury and wrath of South Koreans, the impeached Yoon and all those who blocked his arrest shall be executed once and for all.  Maybe Yoon should experience the 4-horse treatment. South Korea is the nation the world should not be: all incompetent, chaotic and useless.

Henceforth beginning 2025 all undeveloped nations must work, discipline and be responsible to produce their own food and other necessities; all international aid will be terminated beginning November 2025. Undeveloped nations cannot do as usual in dancing, singing, drinking and sporting, have sex and produce many unwanted children they cannot support. They must work hard to support and save themselves. Based on the Biblical principle, 2Th 3:10, “For even when we were with you, we used to give you this order: if anyone is not willing to work, then he is not to eat, either.

According to https://rankchart.org/site/williewongthought.hpage.com/

“In accordance with Web of Trust williewongthought.hpage.com is a suspicious domain.”

According to https://www.pcmag.com/news/web-of-trust-browser-extension-cannot-be-trusted.”

How can we be suspicious since we never ask for money, we only tell the truth absolutely free.

China has aided more than 100 nations costing hundreds of $ billions. Tell the truth, which nation has expressed act of gratitude? Won’t it better to spend on internal improvement or buying gold?

THE WEST (US, BRITAIN, CANADA, EU) BEING EVIL AND FOUND GUILTY OF SANCTIONING CHINA ALL BECAUSE THEY COVET XINJIANG AND XICHANG AND HONG KONG, USE TAIWAN AND SOUTH CHINA SEA TO ATTACK CHINA’S SOVEREIGNTY.

On the one hand, some White experts pretend to make good suggestions to improve China economy; they may fool many Chinese, I can see malice, envy and ill will through their awkward faces. On the other hand, Black leaders and politicians play coy and con China to support their development for nothing. China needs to stop all foreign aid for two reasons: China needs to pay down deficits and debts. China must not be fooled and must use its hard-earned meager resources wisely to do the following strategic projects:

  1.  China should have unswerving commitment only to itself. China should not waste money on useless and unworthy undeveloped countries. Not one nation is grateful. Deficits and debts are bad. China cannot save the world, China must save itself.

2 Make deserts green and reduce sand storms.

3.  Repair the Great Walls. Build sea walls around Hainan Island, Shanghai, etc. to prevent climate change that sea water will rise.

4.  Promote night markets in big cities and promote domestic travel to expand the economy. Deficits and debts are bad; fiscal surplus is good.

5.  Execute crooks and criminals who defraud through Telecom and Internet of more than ONE million yuan. IT is not known who polices the rampant international crooks and criminals who defraud the public by famous American universities and institutions who sell high-priced fake drugs such as to cure knee pain and prevent knee surgery and ear ringing, etc.  Sweep clean fraudulent commercials on TV and the Internet.

6.  Execute crooks and criminals who defraud in foreign nations and do not bring them home. Faces and names of deceivers must be published on TV to shame them and their families.

7.  Increase and strengthen the development and deployment of nuclear weapons for self-defence.

8.  Streamline and reduce national and local government debts and deficits.

9.  Train 5 million doctors, dentists, nurses, teachers, professors and MANAGERS, machinists in the next 5 years.

10.  Assist the poor Chinese in the rural areas first.

11.  Improve mechanized agriculture, and upgrade technology in every field.

12.  Streamline management of central and local governments.

13.  Enforce laws to reduce the number of criminal individuals and organizations in many areas.

14.  Execute crooks and criminals who create rumors and conduct espionage that harm national security.

15.  Reorganize personnel of CGTN and restructure its programs.

16.  Protect the environment and punish severely individuals and organizations who dump industrial waste and toxic materials on lands, soils, water ways, lakes and rivers, and seas.

17.  Remove all fraudulent commercials and fake advertisements from TV and Internet and punish the culprits severely. Violent gaming produces violent culture. Violent culture destroys any nation.

18.  Make it easy for Overseas Chinese to come to China and make their investments.

19.  Reward universities that earn and win NOBEL prizes.

20.  Conduct ditching and dredging of lakes and rivers to prevent flooding before extreme weather.

21.  Innovate and increase therapeutic and pharmaceutical capabilities to produce various vaccines and preventive medicines.

22.  Regulate foreign hospitals and clinics in China to prohibit monopoly and prevent high costs of healthcare.

23.  Bargain down whole sale price with foreign drug companies to import effective foreign drugs to benefit Chinese consumers.

24.  Subsidize elderly apartment renting by 30%, if elderly live with their children, their monthly mortgage will reduce also by 30%.

25.  Severely punish companies that manufacture fake or low quality products.

26.  The world must condemn the phony currency called Bitcoin and China should not fall into the financial trap.

27.  Execute individuals and organizations that rob ancient cemeteries or tombs to sell precious national treasures.

28. Regulate foreign hospitals and clinics in China to prohibit monopoly and prevent high costs of healthcare.

29. Bargain down whole sale price with foreign drug companies to import effective foreign drugs to benefit Chinese consumers.

30. The world must condemn the phony currency called Bitcoin and China should not fall into the financial trap.

31. Mandate providing access to elderly and invalid wheelchairs.

32.  Execute individuals and organizations that rob ancient cemeteries or tombs to sell precious national treasures.

33.  Prohibit anyone to smoke on TV or in movies. Reduce individual gun violence except in war movies.

34.  Execute Hong Kong residents who commit treason or to be exiled permanently. Hong Kong is fortunate to have food, fuel and water, etc. provided by Mainland China. Hong Kong should start de-Biritishization by changing all English street names, for example Victoria Peak should be replaced by Deng Xiaoping Peak.

35.  No one speaks Portuguese except Portugal and Brazil. Macao should not hamstring its residents, but replace Portuguese with the English language the sooner the better.

36.  Increase, innovate, and modernize public and private toilet facilities.

37.  Punish severely those who violate smoking and drinking on buildings, trains, ferries, and airplanes; the third violation deserves to be executed.

38.  China needs to make Christmas a national holiday to facilitate the big Christmas business in China.

39.  Execute leading organized criminals, attack every form of terror, and destroy vigorous lawlessness.

40.  Penalize severely those who have licenses but do not know how to drive or violate traffic rules and regulations on purpose.

41.  To deter and  destroy corruption, China needs to execute any officer who commits corruption of more than CNY one million.

42.  Execute anyone who counterfeits money and seize all his/her assets.

43.  Rebuild the Old Summer Palace, Yuanmingyuan Park ( 圆明园) which was burned down and destroyed by aggressive and intrusive 8-nation-troops; and DEMAND them reparations now through diplomacy or later by military force.

44.  Use force to liberate Taiwan and execute traitorous leaders of the People’s Progressive Party (民進黨) publicly.

How to solve global hunger and poverty? There are nations and peoples who deserve to suffer hunger and poverty. For example, Palestinians do not want to go to lands of Arab to build a Palestinian state of their own. They would rather be in the Jewish land and label as refugees so that they can receive international aid for free. There are undeveloped nations and peoples whose leaders and politicians are corrupt, and the peoples are lazy and unproductive; they eat and get fat, sing and dance, drink beer and have sex, produce many children they cannot support. They like the way of life so that they can beg and receive aid freely. These nations will remain poor and suffer  hunger in worse situation a hundred years from now!
