Bible References:  1 John 4:7-12; Matthew 26; Ps 12:1-8 What makes the times bad? World's perspective: Lack of money, education, war, no work... From God's point of view: 2 Tim 3:1 When righteousness goes times are bad; God lives in the praises of his people.  When the poor and needy are oppressed times are bad. God cares for the fatherless, and poor,  the needy. What answers do we have for such times for us?  We are called to confession and  repentance. Sort out problems with God. Sin - People who are evil; people who have evil intent & the proud. Go to God and praise him.  Worship and honour him.  Do what he says to do.  He will help us. No matter what our faults,  God is faithful. We are to love people and bring them to God.  God does the "work" in their lives. Scripture is about God and His people.  Not about God and this world;  it is a history of God and his people. Put your life into God's hands, he will look after you. Go to

The Bible is God's Word to us. Human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit wrote it. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because God inspires it, it is the truth without any mixture of error. John 20:30-31 1. Miracles which declare His Divinity. (1) His design of a miracle was open and graceful, not in the name of another, but in His own. “I say unto thee, Arise,” this distinguishes Him from prophets and apostles. (2) The miracles of healing He did were with His authority and just the same as God to forgive sins. (3) When He drove the buyers and sellers out of the Temple, He claimed as His own that Temple in which He often appeared as a common worshipper. (4) And when He cast out devils, they sometimes confessed Him as the Son of God. 2. The Lord appeared among men in the lowest of condition,  yet He gathered a people who were to receive Him as, “the Son of God.” There were “signs” which manifest

Galatians 1:1-5; Paul was an apostle of Jesus Christ and he was appointed by him and so by God the Father, who is one with the Son, and the Father appointed Christ as Mediator. Grace, includes God's good-will towards us, and his good work upon us and His peace. This comes from God the Father, as the source, through Jesus Christ. But observe, first grace, and then peace; there can be no true peace without grace. Christ gave himself for our sins, to make atonement for us - the justice of God required this and to this he freely submitted. The greatness of the price of sin is so great, that it could not be put away except the Son of God be given for it. Mark well the words, “for our sins.” We need to be redeemed from the wrath of God, and the curse of the law; but also to recover from wicked practices and customs, to which we are naturally a slave to. We are delivered from this present evil world by the sanctification of the Spirit and freed from its condemnation by the blood of Jesus

Mark 16:15&16 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.   Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. When we are obedient to the gospel, when we believe and are saved we are called to be baptised. Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel,  because it is the power of God  that brings salvation to everyone who believes:  first to the Jew,  then to the Gentile. What does the Bible say? 1 Cor 15:1-4 Now, brothers and sisters, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand.  By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance[a]: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,  that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, Paul was remi
