So that He may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all His saints. 1 Thessalonians 3:13

There is a blessing that Christians should never let go: to grow in the love of God with one another and with unbelievers. There is nothing stronger than love, for it is God’s own nature. It is more powerful than death, the devil’s essence. As we grow in this gift, we will help to save the lost. 

We must grow in the divine love, in order to comfort the hearts of the afflicted and downcast. Now, to comfort is to bring solution to the most varied problems people may have, leading them to live their lives according to the Word. Then, they will become irreproachable before God and before any court that operates with just laws. This is how the born-again Christians should live.

The coming of the Lord is closer, and it will happen when people are not even thinking about it. Those who are prepared and approved in the faith will rise with Him, but the reproved will experience the horrors of deception, for they loved it. Therefore, we must preach the true Gospel, in the power of the Holy Spirit, with wonders, prodigies, and signs. While this doesn’t happen, the Master will not come.

Everyone will have the opportunity to know the Truth, where demons are unmasked and cast out; where sicknesses are healed; and where the gifts of the Holy Spirit are distributed amongst members of the congregation. Then, under the direction of God, we will carry the message of Jesus, and those who love it will be converted to serve the Most High, as should be everyone’s duty. 

When the Gospel is preached in its totality, without any omission of doctrine and facts – as Jesus taught – the lost are converted. Great sinners are set free and from night to day, they become examples for society. The congregation is transformed in a great group of people that are blameless in holiness before the Father. May this day come soon!

Enough of “water with sugar”, of fantastic stories of people who became saints or intermediates before God and man. As we read in the Scriptures, Jesus is our only Mediator between God and humanity. These inventions are evil and have the power to destroy the faith that the Holy Spirit is planting in the hearts. 

God’s work must be done as the Master initiated, and as He ordered us to continue. We cannot accept this evil invention of cults to dead people, something that was made up to dominate people, for the wrath of God comes to those who accept these things. Be obedient only to the Lord!

In Christ, with love,
