“Look at how great a love the Father gives us that we should be called God’s children. And we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it does not know my Father. We are now God’s children. The pride in one’s lifestyle is not from the Father, but is from the world.

“If you extend your soul to the hungry and satisfy the afflicted, then your light shall dawn in the darkness. Blessed is the man who meditates on the Lord’s Law day and night. The Lord is with him. The Lord shows him mercy. The Lord gives him favor. The Lord makes him prosper. Anyone who does not abide in my teaching — and hold to my Father’s words — does not have my Spirit within him. No one who is born of my Father’s Spirit sins. The one born of my Father’s Spirit and remains in his Holy Spirit, is kept safe by my Father. The evil one does not touch him. This is love for my Father: that we keep His commandments.” — Jesus
