From the Heart by B.Demaere

  The Gospel must be proclaimed even by the weakest vessel among us.   We are not guaranteed positive results as if our precepts are coming from the world, but our teachings are coming from the Bible and as such we should expect persecution with it.   Do not expect friendship to come from the world when you have done your best to proclaim that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that he died for our sins because they will laugh at you and say: “What sins?” Remain faithful for faithfulness goes a long way.   Besides all this you must proclaim that Jesus is coming back soon and that means he is coming back very soon because it has been already over 2000 years that He was here the first time. But, let no one panic if you are not yet ready for His coming, all you have to do is to accept Jesus Christ in your heart and you will have eternal life if you believe He is the Son of God and your Savior.   After I had done that on March 21, 1979, I became instantly a Christ...

    We have a strong city: he sets up salvation as walls and bulwarks .   Open the gates, that the righteous nation that keeps faith may enter in.   You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you.   Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord God is an everlasting rock. (Isaiah 26:1-4)     We have a strong city because it is filled with the strength and power of the Lord. Faith is what overcomes the world and with that faith the righteous nation is validated. No fear in her since her walls and bulwarks are set up with salvation. We have no good enough reason not to trust the Lord.

It is a waste of time and resources. Trusting him is a calling on our life. It is no longer a gentle request but a calling to our life. By trusting him we mak...
