We further our teaching today by learning about following God commandments and showing mercy through bro Daniel teaching.
"Proverb 12:15. Stupid people always think they are right. Wise people listen to advice."
"Titus 1:14. and no longer hold on to Jewish legends and to human commandments which come from people who have rejected the truth."
We live in the world full of many teachings and doctrine that some is even almost alike with the one in the Bible but God told us to only follow his commandments which he has given to us, any other teaching apart from God own is regarded as from men which we should not follow for us not to be sperated from God or lose our intimacy with him.
"Ecclesiastes 7:29. This is all that I have learned: God made us plain and simple, but we have made ourselves very complicated."
"John 17:17. Dedicate them to yourself by means of the truth; your word is truth."
We should always at all times follow the truth which is the word of God, God ways is not complicated but simple it is when we humans want our own will to prevail that we begin to complicate things. All that God want from us is in the holy Bible which contains his words and through personal relationships we can also know what he want from us per time and we can also request anything from him he will surely answer us if our way his pure.
"Matthew 15:9. It is no use for them to worship me, because they teach human rules as though they were my laws"
Our worship is in vain if we refuse to follow God commandments or mix his commandments with that of men or doing his commandments when it is convenient for us.
"James 3:13. Are there any of you who are wise and understanding? You are to prove it by your good life, by your good deeds performed with humility and wisdom."
"Proverbs 29:25. It is dangerous to be concerned with what others think of you, but if you trust the LORD, you are safe."
The way we can show people of the world that we are really save is by doing good at all times irrespective of what people think of us of do to us even if they don't deserve our good we should still render it to them. In anything we do we should always apply the wisdom of God and trust in him that he will always be there for us.
"Luke 6:49. But anyone who hears my words and does not obey them is like a man who built his house without laying a foundation; when the flood hit that house it fell at once---and what a terrible crash that was"
Hearing and doing God word is two different thing, as Christian it is God wish that we both hear and do his will or follow his commandments. Hearing alone without putting it in action as no meaning to God because we are not different from people that did not hear the word at all. God want is word to have impact on us.
"Matthew 5:7. *Happy are those who are merciful to others; God will be merciful to them!"
Mercy is compassion, mercy helps to raise prosocial behavior, helps in conflict resolution, cooperation and create a conducive environment for everyone to live in. God has promised those that are ready to show mercy mercy so we should always show mercy and not take advantage of people.
