Zoom with Brother Eli Soriano and Brother Daniel Razon. 7th September 2023 meeting: Love one another.

I bring Greetings to my dear Brothers and Sisters in the Lord in the name of Jesus Christ. Today I want to start by thanking Sister Ruth for always giving us a great translation for us to understand what exactly Brother Eli Soriano and Brother Daniel Razon always teaches us. May God bless her.

My dear family , today was on another level, as we we blessed yet again by the teaching's of our dear Brothers.

We look particular at these things:

1. It is the truth that sets us free from deception
2. The company you keep.
3. What the bible says about Gossips
4. Everything we do must be accompanied with love

Let's have a brief Discussion.

Brother Daniel Razon began teaching from yesterday on how we can tell between the deceivers and the true prophets of God, and know whom we should follow. Today he made us to understand that the only thing that can set us free is the true word of our Lord Jesus Christ.

John 8:32 KJV
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

Free from what he said? Deception.

This is why it's so important for us to keep listening to the word of God that MCGI keeps giving to us daily, because our dear Brothers do well to teach us the pure words of our Lord Jesus Christ which is intended to set us free.

John 8:33-34 KJV
[33] They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free? [34] Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.

We learnt that sin is basically transgression against the law of God. Therefore it is important for us to know they truth so we dont transgress against them, and become slaves to sin.

I realized that we can be slaves without knowing. Ignorance of God's word is true bondage.

John 6:63 KJV - 63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

We saw from this scripture also that it is the words of our Lord Jesus Christ that gives us life. If want to receive the he has promised us we need to seek his word.
Therefore we ought to seek the commandments of our Lord Jesus Christ and not follow the words and traditions of men. Whatever men tells us to do, we must check it with the word if life to know whether we should do or not, because it is only the word that will bring life and give us a successful life.

Bro Daniel Razon also made us to understand today that we must be careful of who we follow because your friends can influence what you do and become. Let see this scripture:

1 Corinthians 15:33 KJV
Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
Sometimes we think we have a mind of our own and no one can influence has. But you must understand that, gradually we become those we listen to more often. We begin to think like them and soon we act like them.
See how Jesus Christ prayed before selecting his disciples. We must be lead by God in selecting friends, so we don't choose anyone who will lead us astray.
I recommend MCGI to you all, because they have shown all the signs of true followers of the gospel of Christ, you are safe with them.

Brother Eli Soriano:

Our dear Brother took over from here and began to share with us on what the bible says if Gossipers and those who spread rumors and bad information about people.

Proverbs 18:8 KJV
The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

---

You will see from this scripture that, Gossipers cause pain to others as the bible puts it. Remember the bible says a good name is better than great riches.
What Gossip does is that it destroy the name of others.

Proverbs 16:28 KJV
A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends.

You see another terrible thing about Gossip, it causes separation amongst people, and God frowns on that.

We saw from a video as scientist began to show us how frequent people talk about others in a day. It somes to be a tendency in man to do so. So therefore we must discipline ourselves not to do so since it's against the laws of our God.

Finally, Brother Eli Soriano thought us to always do things with love .

1 Corinthians 13:2-4 KJV
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. [4] Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

You see, if we do everything without love, it is to no end and not of value before God. Dear Brothers and sisters, let us learn to love one another, let's learn to forgive and let's reflect the beauty of our Lord Jesus Christ to the entire world to see the Light of God.

I sincerely thank you for taking time to read my reflection on today's zoom meeting. I thank MCGI and all the Brothers and Sisters of this Church of Christ for helping us understand the words of God which will bring us life.

God richly bless you and have a wonderful Day
