“Baptism into this Church is a serious thing. It represents a covenant made with our Heavenly Father. It is much more than a right of passage. It is a gateway to a new manner of living, and a new road on which to walk that leads to immortality and eternal life. It was never intended as a dead end. It was intended to open a glorious and wonderful way of life to all who would walk in obedience to the commandments of God.” WayMadeEndsFatherChurchWalksWonderfulSeriousEternalObedienceImmortalityGloriousHeavenlyPassagesCommandmentsEternal LifeCovenantHeavenly FatherBaptismGatewaysDead EndsSerious ThingsNew RoadsCommandments Of God Author:Gordon B.

“Though we cannot understand "the meaning of all things," we do "know that God loveth his children" because He has said, "Behold, this is my work and my glory-to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man." Heavenly Father is able to accomplish these two great goals-the immortality and eternal life of man-because He is a God of creation and compassion. Creating and being compassionate are two objectives that contribute to our Heavenly Father's perfect happiness. Creating and being compassionate are two activities that we as His spirit children can and should emulate.” KnowsMenShouldChildrenSaidTwoAbleSpiritFatherGoalPerfectCompassionCreationActivityEternalCreatingGloryAll ThingsAccomplishObjectivesGod LoveImmortalityHeavenlyCompassionateEternal LifeHeavenly FatherEmulatePerfect Happiness Author:Dieter F.

“Paradise had four rivers that watered the earth.... and howsoever neglected by many, they make glad the city of God. So Bernard sweetly: Eternal life is granted to us in election, promised in our vocation, sealed in our justification, possessed in our glorification. Conclude then, faithfully to thy own soul. I believe, therefore I am justified; I am justified, therefore I am sanctified; I am sanctified, therefore I am called; I am called, therefore I am elected; I am elected, therefore I shall be saved.

“In his (Christ's) surrender on the cross all the pain and agony of mankind was concentrated at a single point, and passed through from death to immortality, There is no pain of any creature from the beginning to the end of time which was not 'known' at this point and thus transmuted. To know all things in the Word is thus to know all the suffering of the world transfigured by the resurrection, somehow reconciled and atoned in eternal life. It was God's purpose which he set forth in Christ as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things on heaven and things on earth'.” KnowsWorldEndsEarthPainSpiritualPurposeSufferingHeavenChristKnownPlansMankindCreaturesEternalAll ThingsCrossesSurrenderImmortalityResurrectionAgonyEnd TimesFullnessEternal LifeNo Pain Author:Bede Griffiths
