Positive Christianity Series Episode #132

"For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us."- Romans 8: 18

We learn from the Sacred Scriptures about the manner that even when there is persecution, tribulation, and times of difficulty, we are able to persevere practicing righteousness and fidelity to the worship of GOD Almighty. We know that the promises of GOD Almighty to the righteous are true describing Shabbath Millennium and New Jerusalem. We are able to remind ourselves of the eternal truth of the Sacred Scriptures that allows us to be encouraged amidst tribulation and persecution because of the envy of evil. We learn that righteous individuals in both Old Testament and New Testament were able to persevere trusting in GOD Almighty without practicing sin and idol worship. We learn that Abraham and Sarah persevere even when Lot is taken captive, and Abraham recues Lot. We learn that Abraham and Sarah persevere even being older than a hundred years of age with confidence in the GOD of gods, GOD Almighty. We learn that Job perseveres even amidst the envy of the accuser and does not deny GOD Almighty. We learn that Job distrusts his supposed friends and wife instead of doubting GOD Almighty. We know that David is able to persevere amidst envy from Saul in obedience to GOD Almighty. We learn that David prospers wherever he is even with envy from Saul. We learn that David is able to obey the commandments of Moses and never practices idol worship allowing David to persevere.

"If GOD is for us, who can be against us?"- Romans 8: 31

We must remember encouraging Scripture verses that remind us of the eternal fidelity of GOD Almighty amidst the times that we are living in. We can speak eternal truth to the temporary lies of evil that want individuals to doubt the Creator because evil hates when individuals have fidelity to GOD Almighty seen in the story of Job. We can have specific Scripture verses that prevent us from being discouraged by the temporary lies of evil that hates when individuals improve and choose to worship GOD Almighty with their virtues instead of practicing idol worship or self-worship. We are able to understand that we worship the Creator of the Highest Heavens, lower heavens, the universe, the earth, humanity, creation, and everything and not creation because that would be idol worship. We learn that instead of discouragements, we increase in motivation knowing that we worship the Omnipotent, Omnipresent, Omniscient, Indestructible, Infallible, Inexhaustible, Infinite, and Eternal GOD Almighty. We know that we do not know all the attributes and qualities of GOD Almighty, but we are able to understand that we worship the true GOD Almighty that created everything and do not practice idol worship.

We do not have to have negative emotions from discouragements and temporary lies, and instead we can keep persevering with motivation, encouragement, and zeal knowing that righteous individuals were able to persevere because of their fidelity to GOD Almighty. Instead of having fear, envy, anger, and negative emotions, we are able to persevere with wisdom, serenity, zeal, and fidelity in the worship of GOD Almighty. We can fear GOD Almighty and that is considered wisdom because we know that GOD Almighty judges with justice and condemns the unrepentant wicked. We can choose to forsake sin and choose King Jesus Christ. We learn that even in the Old Testament there was obstacles, times, and persecution, yet the righteous persevered with zeal in the worship of GOD Almighty. Abraham was able to rescue Lot from the hostile nations that took Lot. We know that Abraham and Sarah were able to persevere with renovated youth so much so that Abraham defeats the hostile nations and rescues Lot. Abraham is blessed by GOD Almighty and Melchizedek who is similar to King Jesus Christ being King of Righteousness of the City of Shalom meaning peace. We learn that Isaac was hated by the Philistines due to the wells that Abraham constructed after the age of a hundred for the inhabitants of the land and also for sojourners. We learn that the Philistines attempted to cover some of the wells with dirt showing their envy. We learn that the Phillistines did not want Isaac to live with them because of the improvement and abundance that exists in the worship of GOD Almighty. We learn that GOD Almighty prospers the eternal descendants of Abraham and Sarah regardless of times, obstacles, or opposition. We learn that Jacob was envied by Laban and had his wages cheated and changed ten times because Laban did not want Jacob to leave knowing Jacob was favored by GOD Almighty, and Laban practiced idolatry. 

We learn that Joseph was hated by his brothers, sent to Egypt, and obtained authority in Potiphar's house. We learn that due to the improvement and authority of Joseph given by GOD Almighty in Egypt, Potiphar's wife then tempts Joseph. Joseph rejects Potiphar's wife's invitations to practice adultery, and Potiphar's wife falsely accuses Joseph. Joseph keeps persevering having authority wherever he is and is able to rise in Egypt when he is given authority by Pharaoh to administrate. We learn that this describes the favor of GOD Almighty amidst persecution, envy, and obstacles. We learn that Job was able to trust in GOD Almighty above material resources, connections, and even above his wife. While evil hated Job for no reason, Job persevered in the worship of GOD Almighty above everything and was not forsaken by GOD Almighty amidst the temporary lies of evil. We know that Job obtained a double portion of blessings because he did not forsake GOD Almighty. We learn that Paul preached after renouncing Phariseeism, material resources, connections, and the persecution of the Church of King Jesus Christ after seeing King Jesus Christ in Eternal and Infinite Splendor and Blinding Light. Paul preached to Jewish and Gentile individuals about the need to worship GOD Almighty and accept and confess King Jesus Christ while being slandered and persecuted by false apostles and false prophets. This describes the wisdom of knowing that if GOD Almighty is all we have, GOD Almighty is all we need. We learn that we can keep persevering preaching King Jesus Christ Eternal LORD and Savior and forsaking sin and idol worship. We know that King Jesus Christ intercedes for us being Eternal High Priest and Eternal King of kings for all eternity. We are able to have motivation each day knowing we can go to the Sacred Scriptures to remind ourselves of the eternal truth when there are temporary lies that attempt to discourage. We can trust in the GOD of gods, GOD Almighty. 

"He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all, how will he not with him graciously give us all things? Who shall bring any charge against GOD's elect? It is GOD who justifies. Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died- more than that, who was raised- who is at the right hand of GOD, who indeed is interceeding for us."- Romans 8: 31-34
