JESUS CHRIST: 
 JOHN 3: [16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
[17] For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
[18] He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
[19] And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
[20] For every one that doeth evil hates the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
[21] But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
[31] He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaks of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.
[32] And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifies; and no man receives his testimony.
[33] He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.
[34] For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God: for God gives not the Spirit by measure unto him.
[35] The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.
[36] He that believeth on the Son has everlasting life: and he that believes not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abide on him.

I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. If you had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth you know him, and have seen him   John 14: 6

JESUS' COMMANDMENTS  

THERE IS HOPE FOR THOSE WHO ARE ILL OR UNHAPPY AND HAVE BECOME DISEASED or who have been INJURED, LACK OF LOVE, A HARM DONE TO THEM, LOSS OF HOPE, MISFORTUNE, or A MORTAL SIN or HEDONISM, ADDICTION AND MATERIALISM OR WHO HAVE LOST HOPE IN GOD

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. ³ For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: ⁴ That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

WHAT IS the most important virtue ?  
"Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. ² And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. ³ And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. ⁴Charity suffers long, and is kind; charity envies not; charity desores not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seek not her own, is not easily provoked, thinks  no evil; Rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; Bears all things, believeth all things, hopes all things, endures all things  Charity never fails: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.  For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.  And now abides faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity."  
1 Corinthians 13

And you have done worse than your fathers; for, behold, you walk every one after the imagination of his evil heart, that they may not listen to me:  Therefore will I cast you out of this land into a land that ye know not, neither ye nor your fathers; and there shall you serve other gods day and night;
where I will not give you peace and prosperity.

AVOID TEMPTATION

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads you to destruction, and many there be which go in that way: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads you unto life, and few there be that find it.

"Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men. Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away. For they sleep not, except they have done mischief; and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall."  Prov. 4:14-15
“He that walks with wise men shall become wise but he that is a companion to fools shall perish like a fool.” Prov.13:20

HAVE HUMILITY

Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
 Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.
Prov. 16:18

Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.
Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.
Prov. 27:1-2

He who humbles himself will be exalted
 Luke 18:14

PRACTICE CHARITY 
 "FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD" James

We love him, because he first loved us.
1 John 4:19

"Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profits me nothing." 
 1 Corinthians: 13 

SEE EVERYBODY AND THE EARTH AS BEING MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD YOUR CREATOR, YOUR FATHER!

God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.  
Genesis 1:27

SINCE WE ARE ALL MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD WE ARE ALL BROTHERS AND SISTERS.
TREAT ALL PEOPLE THE WAY YOU WANT THEM TO TREAT YOU.  REMEMBER WHAT WE DO TO OTHERS WILL BE DONE TO US.

"What you do to others will be done unto you" MATHEW 7:2 

GIVE LOVE AND YOU WILL RECEIVE LOVE. GIVE HATE AND YOU WILL RECEIVE HATE. GIVE MERCY AND YOU WILL RECEIVE MERCY. GIVE FRIENDSHIP AND YOU WILL RECEIVE FRIENDSHIP. WHATEVER YOU GIVE TO OTHERS THE LORD WILL PAY YOU BACK 10 TIMES IN THE LIKE MANNER!

 

GIVE TO THE POOR, HELP THOSE WHO SUFFER AND ARE WORSE OFF THAN YOU AND DO GOOD TO THOSE WHO ARE LESS THAN YOU: 
GIVE TO THE HUNGRY, THE POOR, 
THE IMPRISONED, THE LONELY 

BECAUSE I was hungered and you gave me meat;  I was thirsty and you gave me drink;
I was a stranger, and you took me in;
I was naked and you clothed me;
I was sick and you visited me;
I was in prison and you came unto me.
Therefore you will endure forever  
Whatever you do to the least of your brothers, you do unto me! 
said Jesus in Mathew 25 

"He who gives to the poor 
the Lord will pay back again." Proverbs 19

KNOW GOD KNOW JESUS CHRIST 
 LOVE YOUR FELLOW MAN
 1 John: Chapter 4

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
He that loves not does not know God; for God is love.
9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
19 We love him, because he first loved us.
20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

    Live in Christ
Colossians Chapter 3   
1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Our Mission in Jesus Christ
If any one hears my sayings and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world. ⁴⁸ He who rejects me and does not receive my sayings has a judge; the word that I have spoken will be his judge on the last day. ⁴⁹ For I have not spoken on my own authority; the Father who sent me has himself given me commandment what to say and what to speak. ⁵⁰ And I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I say, therefore, I say as the Father has bidden me." John 12: 47


And whoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when you depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet.
In truth I say this to you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorra in the day of judgment, than for that city which refused you.
Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: therefore be wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues.  And you shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what you shall say: for it shall be given you in that same hour what you shall say.
For it is not you that shall speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaks in you. 
And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death.
And you shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endures to the end shall be saved.
But when they persecute you in this city, flee you to another: for in truth, I say this. You shall not have gone over the cities until the Son of man be come.  Mathew 10: 7-23

TO BE BORN AGAIN IN SPIRIT:

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 
John 3:3

“Whosoever shall not receive the Kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.” 
Luke 18:17

 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Nicodemus asked him ~  How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
Jesus answered ~ Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.  
John 3: 3-7

"No one comes unto the Father, but by me. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world;
but that the world through him might be saved." 
JOHN 3: 16-17

"He that overcomes himself shall inherit all things and I will be his God and he shall be my son.” 
Rev. 21:7  

  "GOD SHALL deliver him from going down to the pit:  His flesh shall be fresher than a child's: he shall return to the days of his youth.   He shall pray unto God, and he will be favorable unto him: and he shall see GOD’S face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness. GOD looks upon men, and if anyone say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not; GOD will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light. Lo, all these things God oftentimes works in man. To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living."  
JOB 33: 25-30

"O Give thanks to the Lord for He is good and his mercy endures forever." 
Psalm 118
