We Shall Love The Lord Our God

  We Shall Love The Lord Our God!               This is an essay that consists of Bible verses from the Book of Deuteronomy.  The first Bible verse that I would like to talk about is in Deuteronomy 6:5: It says you shall love the Lord your God with all of your heart, with all of your soul, and with all of your strength.  I love the Lord God so much that I have dedicated my life to Him; by not listening to rap music.  I have dedicated my life to Him by sharing with others about what the Lord has done for me.           Next, when you love the Lord your God; you are putting to an end the physical, mental, and social self by submitting to His will.  Deuteronomy 8:6 says: Therefore, you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, to walk in His ways and fear Him.  Second, we do this by obeying His word, and placing our hearts, mind, and soul to H...

Romans 11:27: And What It Means to All People. By Anthony Joseph Hopkins June 25, 2022

  Romans 11:27: And What it Means to all people.  By Anthony Joseph Hopkins June 25, 2022         Romans 11:27 says; For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.  This means that we are operating under a brand-new covenant.  A covenant is an agreement between God and mankind.  He shall take away their sins.  Only God and Jesus Christ, the son who died for the sins of all mankind.  Only God shall forgive all of our sins.  I thank God for allowing me to see my 57 th Birthday yesterday.  Although I was sick earlier in this week, I thank God for allowing me to feel better from constipation.  I also want to thank God for allowing my baby brother to live after suffering from a heart attack yesterday as well.  I thank you Lord Jesus for saying the serenity prayer to a young lady, who was grieving over the death of her Uncle as well.  I thank you Lord Jesus for allowing me to...

Proverbs 22:24-25 And What is the Meaning of the two Bible verses!!

  Proverbs 22:24-25, and the meaning of the two Bible verses: By Anthony Joseph Hopkins.   June 24, 2022 Proverbs 22:24 says: Make no friendship with an angry man and do not go, (25) Lest you learn his ways and set a snare for your soul.   Next, what these two Bible verses are saying is do not affiliate with people who are angry and furious.   This is because man and women behave differently.   People who are furious and angry are a negative influence. Further, people who are angry and furious have a negative self esteem.   It can rub off on others because it sets a snare for your soul, if you follow them.   If you learn their ways it can get you into a lot of trouble. Moreover, there are times when we are around other people that we do not know.   You never know what is happening from one day to the next.   When it comes to snares; it is only a trap.   It is a trap that that can get you into trouble.   In some cases, they...

Deuteronomy 16:17 and What it means to Tithing!!

  Deuteronomy 16:17: And What it Means to All People!! By Anthony Joseph Hopkins June 16, 2022         Deuteronomy 16:17 states that every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord thy God which he hath given thee.  This particular Bible verse is in the Mosaic Laws.  However, I want to inform everyone that God is being very flexible when it comes to paying tithes and offerings.  I did not know that tithes are supposed to be added to the household budget.  For example, if a person is earning $1,026.00 per month, this means that we will have to pay $126.00 per month in tithes and offerings.         Next, I want to say that this particular Bible verse is no longer emphasized.  This is simply because we are under the New Covenant.  Although this Bible verse is very nice and generous.  I know that everyone has to pay according as he wishes.  B...

Luke 6:35

  Luke 6:35-36 and what does it mean to all people!!         This is an essay that asks one very important question.  What does Luke 6:35-36 mean to all people?  First, I want to say that I used to have a problem with this particular Bible verse because people have done me so wrong that I felt humiliated in my own hometown.  I will admit that my life during the past 30 years consisted of ups and downs behaviorally speaking.  I will also admit that I used to be the type of person who used to retaliate on other people; especially when they did wrong to me.  However, during the past 30 years, my life has truly changed for the better.  I also will admit that I have done so many things in my personal life.  For example, I have lent so much money to other people, and just like the Bible verse states that we do not ask for our money back.  Next, I want to inform everyone that I had to completely humble myself in fr...

What is the difference between honesty and being just?

  What is the Difference Between Honesty, and being Just?   By Anthony Joseph Hopkins   What is honesty according to Bible? Being honest means  choosing not to lie, steal, cheat, or deceive in any way . When we are honest, we build strength of character that will allow us to be of great service to God and to others. We are blessed with peace of mind and self-respect and will be trusted by the Lord and others.   Definition of honesty the quality or fact of being honest; uprightness and fairness . truthfulness, sincerity, or frankness. freedom from deceit or fraud.     What does it mean to be a just man in the Bible? Calling Joseph, a “just man”, then, is so much more than his observance of Jewish dietary laws and Sabbath practices.  Joseph was a man of “righteousness” (tzedekah) and “justice” (mishpat), being attuned to the right thing and actually doing it .     What does it mean to be an honest man? If you de...
