I am happy about the new lesson i made today, June 29, 2017. It is entitled, THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RELATIONSHIP AND FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD. I was able to improve on the format of the lesson. The name of creation is at the bottom. It also has subtopics emphasized. It has 30 questions. — Edwin Jardinel
===================================
When we or other people experience sufferings, we cannot avoid asking a question, “Why does God allow sufferings?” We cannot blame God for all the sufferings in this world. When Adam and Eve sinned, the result was suffering.
Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
-Genesis 3:16-17
Since the fall of Adam and Eve, every human being always commits sins. The reason is because all men are born with a sinful nature. We sin because we are sinners by nature and choice.
Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: -Romans 5:12
Sin brings various consequences in the lives of many people. Many children may not have done worst things, but they were affected and they suffer due to the mistakes and sinful deeds of their parents.
Another reason for the sufferings of many people is due to the work of the Devil. He is always looking for opportunity to destroy lives.
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: -1 Peter 5:8
What about the righteous people? What I mean with the righteous people are those who have accepted Jesus by faith and were made righteous by the cleansing of Christ’s blood. It does not mean that believers can no longer commit sin. Christians are not perfect but are forgiven.
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. -1 John 1:8-10
Do Christians still experience sufferings? Here is a passage:
Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all. -Psalms 34:19
Yes Christians still can experience sufferings as no one is exempted from the troubles in this world, but there is deliverance from God.
Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward.
-Job 5:7
Why would God allow Christians to suffer? To know more please answer the quiz below:
Here is a link to the lesson, “Why does God allow people to suffer”.
This is a common question asked by many Christians, “How can I know God’s will?”. It is hard to make wise decisions when we encounter difficulties. We believe that God’s will is always best, and if we would follow His will we will experience God’s plan for our lives. This lesson was created November 4, 2016 and was done at about 12 noon.

I would like to share to you two new lessons I made entitled, “THE WAGES OF SIN” and “WHY EVE FELL TO SIN”. I had a hard time coloring the latter because when i put a color to a certain area, the color would spread to other areas. I think its because after I’ve drawn it, I just took a picture of it from my cellphone and the quality of the picture is not good. So that early morning, I decided to post it without color. I finished the lesson about 1 am of October 11. Here is how the drawings look like without a color.
In the morning about 11 am, I scanned the drawing and colored it through windows paint. I got satisfied of the result. Here is the result:

The term, “Born Again” has become so common today and many religious groups are using the words to name themselves. Oftentimes, it is thought of as a religion or a name of a group. However, born again has reference to having a relationship with Christ, not a name of a religious group. Everyone is spiritually dead until he is born of the Spirit. Not all who uses the name “born again” are truly born again. Continue reading
