James 1:2-21 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Here the actual Greek word has meaning of trial also. And the context also shows it. When you long for marriage and you pray for it and God does not give it to you, it is your trial. You will never find out what you’re made of until you push yourself to the edge. Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

Luke 22:35-37 And he said to them, When I sent you without purse, and money, and shoes, lacked you any thing? And they said, Nothing. Then said he to them, But now, he that has a purse, let him take it, and likewise his money: and he that has no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. For I say to you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.

“But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:” (2Ti 1:10, KJVA) Everything in this world is headed towards death. Once a beautiful and energetic child grows old and eventually dies and turns into bones and ashes. Once a tall tree falls to the ground and mixes with soil of forest. Once a bright star runs out of its fuel and turns into darkness.

If you have been in a Catholic church you might have something called Creed. Paragraphs of text that church attendances know by heart: We believe in One God, the Father Almighty, Creator of all things visible and invisible; and in One Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, begotten as the only-begotten of the Father, this is, from the essence (ousia) of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not created, consubstantial (homo-ousios) with the Father, through Whom all things were made, both in heaven and earth; Who for us men and for our salvation came down and was Incarnate, was made Man; Who suffered and rose again on the third day, ascended into heaven, and shall come again to judge the living and the dead; and in the Holy Spirit.

Revelation of John 9:6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. Using word to word translation from Koine Greek bible, above can be translated to: Revelation of John 9:6 And in those days they shall seek death of humans, and shall not find it; and people shall feel like dying and death shall flee from them.

Matthew 7:6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. Here holy is you and pearls is your body and your talents. Dogs and swine is demons. Do not give/devote yourself to demons lest they degrade you, humiliate you and destroy you. Following your temptations is a way of giving yourself to Satan.

Matthew 17:24-27 And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute? Perhaps Capernaum was a religious city and these men asking for tribute to the house of God. He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute?

You must be tolerable to people about your own benefits if you want God to be tolerable about you in heaven. If you say for example, I never forgive someone who takes my place in a queue, or I never forgive someone who talks behind my back, or I never allow someone to borrow something and not return it to me, then expect God to treat you the same in heaven.

You must have heard that love is based on chemistry. That love just happens. That there are some molecules in body that cause love to happen between two people even at first sight! So what are these molecules that scientists are talking about? Where can you get the Love Pill?! Is this another empty promise of the secular world? Read what our lord tells us about love: Matthew 22:37-40 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
