We Should Not Oppress One Another

Is It True That We Should Not Oppress One Another?

        By: Anthony Joseph Hopkins

        Praise The Lord!! Praise The Lord Saints!!  How are you doing today?  Fine, I hope.  Happy New Year Jesus, and all of the Saints of the world.  Let me start things off by asking everyone a question.  Is it true that we should not oppress one another?  The answer to this question is yes.  The Lord will pray for you through all storms, trials, and tribulations.  What is the definition of the word oppress?

        The definition of the word oppress means to take advantage of: Or to gain an advantage over another financially, mentally, physically, or psychologically.  Another definition of the word oppress is keep (someone) in subservience and hardship, especially by the unjust exercise of authority. Causes (someone) to feel distressed, anxious, or uncomfortable. “He was oppressed by some secret worry”.  Oppression leads to depression and suppression.

Next, I want to say that oppression leads to jealousy and envy.  The word oppress means to gain an advantage, or an opportunity to do so.  The factors of being oppressed are as follows: For Example, one of the most important feelings of being oppressed is fear, trepidation, and apprehension that we have never been through before.  Another factor of being oppressed is a complete sense of embarrassment and shame.  It also leads to pain and sadness.  For Instance, I got taken advantage of by a 19 year old female that I met on Mocospace Websites.  I got scammed because I thought that the young lady was going to sell me some pictures of herself.  She advertised that she was selling 60 nude pictures for $15.00 dollars.  This same young lady is selling nude videos of herself for $20.00 dollars.

        Another Example is when I got scammed by a British National Female who wanted to marry me, but it was a scam.  This young lady scammed me for $1,550 dollars.  I got scammed yesterday January 3, 2020, while I was paying my bills online at the Dayton Metro Library.  Another thing is that I have downloaded 3 cash apps on my phone.  They are called Cashapp, PayPal, and another Cashapp.  I was downtown paying my bills online and suddenly, I received a phone call from my Bank stating that I have been scammed by a couple.  This is an unknown man and woman that I sent money to using Cashapps. 

        Further, one of the reasons why I have bought up this very important topic is simply because I got scammed for the first time in over two and a half years.  Yesterday, this young lady scammed me for only $30.00 dollars.  There are women who are selling themselves sexually on Mocospace, Facebook, and WhatsApp.  Therefore, this young lady lied to me and said that she did not get the money.  I am not at the liberty of mentioning her name because I do not want to accuse her without Just Cause.  Right now, I have a specific case because I am a victim of wire fraud.  Mocospace is a non- secure Social Networking Website.  Any person who use this website is using this website at their own risk.

        Moreover, anytime a woman who sells herself online for money is a harlot.  Anytime a female who sells her pictures and videos of herself being nude for personal financial gain is a prostitute.  This applies to men as well.  My main objective for being online is to spread the Gospel of Peace with everyone worldwide.  I am supposed to lead lost souls to Jesus Christ.  I have started a ministry to save people for themselves.  The internet is the devil’s playground because it consists of sexual images and lust.  These images are online, and these images are retained inside of the subconscious mind.  There are millions of people who have a platform to deceive many people.

        Also, I want to say that I got scammed out of $16,977 dollars by several people while online from March 8, 2008 to February 21, 2010.  I met these women on Black planet, Yahoo, and Hangout Websites. One of the reasons why I am not mentioning these individual’s names is because I got into trouble by my Bank again.  Currently, I am writing about my personal experiences because I do not want anyone else to get scammed like I did recently, and in the past.

        Finally, when it comes to the topic of being oppressed is a very sinking feeling.  Leviticus 19:11 says: You shall not steal, nor deal falsely, nor lie to another.  I am the type of person who has been lonely and without companionship for the past 12 years now.  This is because I got scammed and hurt by people that I did not know.  From henceforth, I am going to serve the Lord!! My household and I are going to serve the Lord.  My money belongs to God.  I am having an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ.  My mission from here on out; is to win people to Jesus Christ.  Even though I am hurting right now, but God is with me in Spirit and in Truth.  God Bless You All!!  May the Lord God be with your Spirit?  Thank You for reading my essay.

        In Conclusion, I want to say that not every woman is out there selling themselves sexually online.  Please let me set the record straight.  There are some very honest people out there who have common sense.  There are people who really want to do God’s Work!!  I am going to be very careful online for the rest of my entire life.  Before my mother died, she told me to my face that I should be married with children.  I am not able to have children because of an injury to my testes; that I have sustained while playing sports.  Please keep me in your prayers because I am mortally wounded because my lack of trust in women.  I have a desire to hear God’s Voice for the rest of my entire life.

Job 14:16

Job 14:16 and how it relates to all People?

Good Evening and God Bless You!! I have a question for everyone. Does God number our steps? The answer to this question is being brought forth because I am very concerned. I know that God knows all things. It is that God knows even our thoughts.


        He even understand what is inside of our heart. The question is do you think all of our steps are all numbered? I really think that our steps as well as our breath are all numbered. The reason why I am really asking this question is because I would like to receive a dialogue on this Bible verse from Job.

 I know that Job is the oldest Book inside of the Bible. It has a lot of insight and knowledge that is derived from the Old Testament. This particular Book inside of the Bible is rarely talked about by Theologians.

        Next, I am bring this up because I would like for someone to converse with me about the Book of Job. I have another question. Does God watch over our sins?

        To be honest with everyone, God even knows exactly what we are going to do in advance. The answer to this question is yes; God watches our sins and everything else. He even knows exactly how long we are going to live. According to Jeremiah 1:5 says: Before I formed thee inside of the womb, I knew thee, I ordained thee, and sanctified thee as a prophet unto the nations.

        Moreover, I want to say that God knows so much about us that we hardly give Him the credit for the things that He has done for us in our personal lives. I praise Him, and rejoice Him for all that He has done for me in my life. It is not even my Will anymore, it is His will. It is his breath of life that He gives us on a daily basis. I am acknowledging Him for all that He has done for me all of my entire life. Everything that I have right now belongs to God.


        To be perfectly frank with everyone, my day yesterday was truly great. I might now have eaten any Thanksgiving meals, but I am content with what I have eaten because I am grateful for the Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches that I had received from Meals on Wheels; the day before. If it wasn’t for the Lord providing me with my Government Meals, I would not survive. I thank the Lord for providing me with all of my daily essentials. I am grateful as well for my health and strength.


        In Addition, I want to say that I am a person, who is content with the small things. I am content with all of my basic necessities. I am simply saying that God knows all that we need. He knows the things that we need of; long before we ask Him. I appreciate everything that the Lord has done for me.

        Finally, I want to inform everyone that God knows our feelings.  I know that I might have expressed this before, but I feel energized and excited to serve the Lord.  I will admit that He already know all of my plans, and personal goals in advanced.  I have to say that it is my job to trust in the Lord.  I say this because I am trying my best not to lean not unto my own understanding.  I trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding: Proverbs 3:5.  I might not be perfect when it comes to quoting scripture, but I sure can tell you where it is located inside of the Bible.

Proverbs 23:2

What does the Bible says about obesity?  I am a person who does not like to eat as a means of comfort.  I will admit to taking 28 prescription medications per day.  The medication that is causing me some problems is Zyprexa because it is an anti psychotic medication.  I take this medication because I hear voices that other people don’t hear.  I see things that other people do not see.  Therefore, I am having visual and auditory hallucinations.  The medication increases my appetite.  I have gained a total of 38 pounds within a three month period.  I will admit that I eat more at night than during the day.  The voices are more active at night than during the day.  I can control what goes inside of my mouth.  I will admit that I suffer from low testosterone levels.  My sluggishness is causing me to sleep a lot. I sleep over 12 hours per day.  It is better to take the medicine rather than hearing voices all night long.  This is the reason why I have everyone that I know to please pray for me.  I take 14 pills in the morning and another 14 pills at night.

I want to inform all of you that I am not giving to an appetite.  I do not put a knife on my throat every single day of the week.  My problem is medicine and nothing else.  If I feel like eating then I will eat.  Eating foods are not my motivation to become an obese man.  I have been hearing voices for 13 years now.  I have been clean and sober for 32 years now.  I have been suffering from Schizoid Affective Disorder for 27 years now.  I also suffer from Schizophrenia for 26 years now.  I have been hospitalized with a mental illness for 27 years now.  This is the reason why I am telling everyone to please pray for me.  Like they say prayer changes things.  Although I am still hearing voices, but it is not as bad as it used to be.  Thank you for keeping it real with me.  I want to say God Bless You All!!  I love you for you.  Please continue to pray for my family members and friends.  

Be Strong and of Good Courage

Joshua 1:6-8 Bible Verses:. Be Strong and courageous, for you are the one who will lead these people to possess all the land I swore to their ancestors I would give them.  Be strong and very courageous.  Be careful to obey all the instructions Moses gave you.  Do not deviate from them, turning either to the right or to the left.  Then you will be successful in everything you do.

This is the truth because Moses died and God has appointed a leader in Joshua.  God told him that he will lead the people to the Promise Land.  Joshua lead all of the Israelites to the land that He had promised the ancestors in advance.  I love this story in the Bible because when God you something, He means it.  The Lord’s People are here in America right now.  God is coming back to earth and He will bring back everyone whose name is in the Lambs Book of Life.  God will allow His Son Jesus Christ to reign on earth just to bring everyone to heaven 

Moreover, God will bring every work into Judgement.  All work will be burned to determine it’s value.  If it is burnt up, then He will save you anyway.

Finally, I want all of you to know that God will test all of our works.  God is giving all of us another chance to correct our own behavior.  Lord Jesus Christ I am very sorry for what I have done wrong inside of my life right now.  I am very sorry for hurting and misleading Your Creation myself.  I am apologizing for all that I have done in my entire life.  Please forgive me of all of my iniquities and transgressions and sins.  I am very sorry for my false communication in the past.  I am calling you because I am in need of a Savior Jesus Christ.

Trusting God’s Plan in Uncertain Times

Trusting God’s Plan in Uncertain Times

by ORBC Family | Aug 11, 2023 | Faith

Welcome to Oak Ridge Baptist Church’s blog! We’re excited to embark on a topic close to our hearts: trust. In a world of uncertainties, trust plays a pivotal role in our faith journey. Join us as we delve into the power of trusting God’s plan, especially during life’s unexpected twists and turns.

Understanding Trust and Faith

Trust is the cornerstone of our relationship with God, akin to believing that a loyal friend keeps their promises. As the book of Hebrews reminds us, “Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” (Hebrews 11:1, NIV) Our trust and faith work in tandem, guiding us through life’s ebb and flow.

Navigating Uncertain Seasons

Throughout life’s rollercoaster filled with highs and lows, our trust in God may waver. It’s normal to encounter doubts and fears but remember, we’re never alone. The fellowship of our ORBC community supports and uplifts each other during these uncertain moments.

Biblical Examples of Trusting God’s Plan

The Bible brims with accounts of individuals who placed unwavering trust in God’s plan, even when circumstances seemed insurmountable. Consider Noah, who faithfully constructed an ark despite the absence of rain. His trust in God’s guidance led to the salvation of his family and myriad animals. Like Noah, Abraham, Joseph, and David faced daunting challenges, yet their steadfast trust yielded remarkable blessings.

The Power of Trust in Prayer

Prayer is our direct line of communication with God, embodying our trust in His divine plan. Think of it as engaging in a heart-to-heart conversation with the One who knows us best. At ORBC, we’ve witnessed the remarkable potency of prayer. Our members’ stories of answered prayers underscore God’s unwavering faithfulness. We urge you to trust in prayer for your own life.

Steps to Strengthen Trust in God’s Plan

Reflect on God’s Faithfulness

Glimpsing into our past, we discern God’s faithfulness in action. Recall the moments when challenges loomed large, yet a path emerged. Reflecting on these instances reaffirms that we’re never solitary in our struggles.

Seeking Wisdom and Understanding

Scripture, our guidebook for wisdom, offers insights into God’s character and His impeccable plan. As we delve into the Word and dedicate time to prayer, we deepen our comprehension of the One in whom we place our trust.

Surrendering Control

Releasing control is no easy feat, yet it stands as a pivotal step in trusting God’s plan. Though we may harbor our own visions, God’s plan often surpasses our imagination. By surrendering our aspirations to Him, we pave the way for His abundant blessings.

Trust in the Lord

As we conclude our exploration of trusting God’s plan amidst uncertainties, let’s engrain trust as the bedrock of our faith. Anchoring ourselves in God’s promises, seeking His wisdom, and relinquishing our plans bestows upon us hope, serenity, and fortitude. Oak Ridge Baptist Church stands united on this journey of trust. Despite life’s ambiguities, rest assured that God’s plan unfolds, and His presence is unwavering.

Remember this Psalm when you need encouragement: Psalm 62:8 (NIV): “Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.” If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us to learn more.

Non Secure Websites

Non Secure Websites

This is a very important blog about non secure websites. What are non secure websites? A non secure website is a website that a person will have to use or enter at their own risk. This means that a person will be taking a chance of getting hacked online or their information might be illegally transferred onto another website. An example of a non secure websites is as follows: Face Book, Moco Space, MySpace, Yahoo, Black Planet or Match. Although these websites are very stimulating to the mind, curiosity, and excitement, there are risk behind it. A person who is online does not really know who they are really talking to. It is important that anyone who is online really need to be extremely careful.

Next, I have been hacked on a non secure website before and I really got my feeling hurt. It is because I was only trying to establish a relationship or relationships with friends that I did not know. Most people who are using these websites are genuinely happy, excited, elated, and enthusiastic about entering into the website. The expectations are quite high as soon as a person enters the website. Non secure websites really need to be carefully monitored, so that each person who has an account can have a sense of security and satisfaction that their accounts are protected.

To be perfectly honest, each person really do not know who they are talking to online because there are computer hackers, scammers, and data thieves online waiting for you. At least on Face Book, a person can chat with their friends as long as their friends recognize them. Anyone can exercise their first Amendment Rights on any website as long as it is not threatening to National Security. Anyone can post their pictures, blogs, and make comments online about any subject. On Moco Space and MySpace, anyone who has an account can chat with their friends; send blogs as well as pictures. I have read some very interesting blogs on each non secure website. A secure website such as Twitter, anyone who has an account can send pictures, and make short statements.

Further, there is an age limit on certain non secure websites. The average age of a person is 18. However, there are people who are younger than 18 who open accounts on Moco Space, MySpace, Tagged, Yahoo, Face Book, and Black Planet. Anyone under the age of 18 is definitely putting themselves at risk whenever they open up an account of this magnitude. This is the reason why they have to receive their parent’s permission before opening up an account. There are children who are under the age of 14 who have Moco Space, Yahoo, Face Book, and Black Planet accounts. These are adult only websites. The security goes lacking because there are so many people who have accounts such as Face Book; who has over 1,000,000,000 users.

There are many accounts that hackers and scammers are using to communicate with their online victims. There are millions of fraud cases that are filed each year because of the simple fact that there are too many people online using the website. This is really serious because a child does not need to observe any adult materials. The reason why there are security issues is because the accounts themselves are false. There are accounts that are made online by hackers and they are called clones. This is because some of them are used by computer hackers and scammers as well as data thieves. This is very dangerous because too many people worldwide have a Face Book and this includes all of the stars on Hollywood. There are more non secure websites than secure websites. This is because of a fact that most people are looking for entertainment. It is very important to make sure that you check and examine all of your information very carefully before using your homepage or website.

Men, Who Leave Their Phone Numbers On Non Secure Websites!!

Men, who leave their phone numbers on a Non Secure Website

This blog is very serious and it really pertains to billions of people. It is called men and the reason why they leave their phone numbers on a Non Secure Website. Men who leave their phone numbers to women are usually desperate and they are always eager to consult with women. The reason why men leave their phone numbers on Non Secure websites is simply because of the fact that; they would like for each woman to call them immediately. It is not that women will call them; even though they might appear to become interested in the men who leave them their phone numbers. What these men do not realize is that Non Secure websites are hacked all of the time.

If men continue to give their phone numbers to women on these websites, they are taking a chance of not only getting hacked, but they will become victims of telephone harassment. This means that a man will become harassed to the point that he would have to get his phone number changed. A lot of men do not know that there are women who possess strange personalities, or in some cases, do not want to be bothered anyway. Men who leave their phone numbers to the women most of the time, they will not receive a reply. If they are lucky, they might get lucky and get a phone call. Moco Space, MySpace, Black Planet, and Face Book are non secure websites that all of will have to be very careful. The websites itself have a lot of users. It is not very easy for a man to leave his phone number for each woman that he sees on each website. A man in today’s society would like to become happy before he dies.

I know that single men who tend to make this mistake of leaving their phone numbers online are putting themselves at risk of having his phone number cloned, hacked, and illegally retrieved by computer hackers, data thieves, and scammers. I will admit that I have made this mistake of leaving my phone number online for a woman to give me a phone call. This is because at the time, I got hacked, I was not aware of it. I thought that things were okay, and I was talking to real people. I was talking to real people all right; these individuals were talking to me from out of the country. I became a victim of fraud and I was devastated!! I lost $16,977 dollars in Western Union Funds. I got scammed by 18 people within a 2 year period.

This is because the men that I was online with were using women’s profiles on Black Planet.Com and Yahoo. The email addresses as well as the phone numbers that these men and women were using did not belong to them. I had to check this entire website and information out for myself. All of the profiles and email addresses were hacked and fake. I was also a victim of a romance scam. I thought that I was going to marry someone from another country, and it turned out to be a complete scam. Whenever a man leaves his phone number on a non secure website, he is definitely putting himself at risk of getting himself caught up in a deceptive scheme or a trap. Why do men leave their personal information online on a non secure website? The answer to this question is very simple. They are desperate for female attention. They want a woman to respond to them so bad that they will do everything to seek her attention. There are more women who live on this planet than men.
The men who are remaining; will go all out and try to appeal to the needs of each woman that he see online. It is preferred that a man should exercise self control and only pray to God for a female in their life. I do not understand why men are leaving their phone numbers online for anyone to obtain them. In some cases, a woman might give a man the wrong number just to shut them up. They give a man the wrong number because they really do not like him. However, a man will not give up on finding someone online to talk to. They will acquire a lot of female friends and still he is not satisfied. A man is not satisfied with what he has online until he loses it. When a man loses everything that he has online, a profound sadness takes place.

A man will start crying and he would eventually start over and get another account or accounts. There is not a concrete answer to this question. It is that a man’s satisfaction level is pretty low and high in most cases. Men who are self confident and know exactly what goes on online will not leave his phone number online for anyone to obtain it. Men who usually leave their phone numbers online are insecure and need a woman to help them to heal. A woman is flesh to a man. She is a bone from the bone of a man and flesh of his flesh; according to the Holy Bible.

There are a lot of younger men who usually leave their cell phones numbers online all of the time. There are at least 70% of men between the ages of 18 to 40 who are leaving their phone numbers online. This statistic is based on the United States Department of the Census.

Understanding Online Scamming, Hackers, and The Criminal Element!!

Understanding Online Scammers, Hackers, and the Criminal Element

This is a very serious problem in our society. The problem that I am talking about is computer hacking, scammers, and the criminal element. First, let’s start off by explaining the characteristics of a computer hacker. A computer hacker is a person who is a loner. This is a person who is excellent when it comes to working technology. A computer hacker is also a person who enjoys computers, women, and other things. A computer hacker is also highly intelligent, educated, and in some cases, also has a computer background. This is a person who possesses an above average IQ and he or she also usually is all by himself. This person is also a professional liar and he tends to demoralize an innocent person with words, symbols, or statements that do not make sense. This person uses a computer to cut and paste pictures of women and transfer them into his own personal database. This person also confuses everyone just like Satan with his statements, and to tell you the truth, his location is unknown to the public and not to God.

A scammer is a person who also takes advantage of other people by deceiving them with his or her words. They also make promises that they do not keep. A scammer is also a person who uses a computer at times to gain money from innocent people. A computer scammer and hacker are two different people. Scammers and Hackers are online using women’s profiles to lure men into starting a conversation with them. Most of them wait until each woman is completely logged off their computers or their smartphones. Scammers do not really need a computer to take advantage of another person. They can use their sense of charm, wit, and intelligence to gain anything from another person. What makes it very dangerous is that most of the women who are victims are women. They have to prove in a court of law that they are not involved in any illegal activities. The scammers and hackers who are online right now are active 24 hours per day. Most of the activity occurs between the hours of Midnight to 6:00 AM.

The criminal element that is associated with this operation consists of individuals that are in a hierarchy system. There is a system of people who are high and low ranking officials when it comes to the online scamming criminal element. This is extremely serious because an average hacker and scammers who are involved in this operation and crime usually earn an average of $100,000 per week. This money comes from online fraud victims who really do not know that they are being taken advantage of until the last minute. There are an average of 25,000 reports each year to law enforcement of wire fraud, and social security fraud. This is because the victims themselves are being used and their information online is being used by scammers and hackers. Their email accounts and homepages are also used by hackers as soon as they log off their personal computers or cell phones.

The equipment that computer hackers and scammers use is thermal scanners, printers, laptops, computers, cell phones, and printers. The crimes that are committed are identity theft and fraud. Also, another crime that is reported by victims is having their email accounts and homepages illegally used by these types of criminals. For instance, on Moco-Space, there is a hacker who is using women’s profiles to talk to men. This hacker is a man. This hacker also uses short words and statements to confuse innocent people. This hacker also tells lies whenever he/she states that; they have done something for the person they are talking to. Most of the accounts and information is illegally transferred to their accounts. There are also cloned accounts. There are accounts that do not exist and it is really up to the people who are in charge of the website to check this information out for authenticity.

Matthew 19:26 and what it mean to all people!!Good Day Everyone!! I would like to ask everyone a very important question. What does this Bible verse Matthew 19:26 mean to all of you? For me personally, I have to change my expectations and allow God to work things out for me. Matthew 19:26 in the King James Version states 26.) But Jesus beheld them and said unto them, with men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Next, this means that I will have to deny myself and follow Him. I say this because I am guilty of saying something is going to happen. When it does not happen for me, this means that God did not want me to have anything at man’s convenience and expense. It is the Lord who will provide.Matthew’s Bible verse is very interesting. In actuality, it is Jesus who is talking to His disciples and letting them know that man cannot tell God what to do. It is the Lord who will bless you when the time is right. It does not mean that we have to stop having faith in God and obtain the things that we need on our own accord. One of our biggest problems is that some of us do not have patience. We have to exercise patience and self-control when it comes to maintaining good behavior inside of a changing society.Mark 9:23 King James Version indicates; 23.) Jesus said unto him, if thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. Mark’s gospel is different because Jesus is saying that as long as a person believe in Him; as well as have faith, all things are possible for him who believes. However, the disciples were trying to cast out a mute spirit from a little boy, and they were not successful at casting the spirit out. It was also the father of the little boy who had disbelieved. Further, he pleaded with Jesus to help him with his unbelief because Jesus had healed the unbelieving man’s son. Jesus commanded the deaf and dumb spirit to leave the child. In addition, Jesus stated that this type of spirit can come out by prayer and fasting. Mark 9:23 goes hand in hand with Matthew 19:26 because it has a whole lot to do with our belief in Him. Both of these Bible verses would give anyone who does not believe in Jesus Christ to immediately believe. Also, I want to say that I believe in Jesus Christ even though I sin from time to time. According to Romans 3:23; it says: For all have sinned and has fallen short of the glory of God. I will always believe in God. I would like for all of you to please pray for me because I suffer from multiple health problems. Therefore, I am taking a total of 23 prescription medications on a daily basis. I am a member of Fort McKinley United Methodist Church in Dayton, Ohio. Luke 18:27 in the King James Bible says: And he said: The things which are impossible with men are possible with God. Honestly, Luke’s gospel Bible verse is different, but similar. It is simply saying that with man, it is impossible, but it is definitely possible with God. I am placing emphasis on these three Bible verses because I will admit that I am working the 12 Steps of recovery on a daily basis. Do you know that the 12 Steps are inside of the Bible? In Summary, these three Bible verses should give anyone hope. I will admit that I used to have an anger management problem for 8 years. When I was living in Charlotte, NC; I used to attend a group called Double Trouble in Recovery. This class was held on Tuesday and Thursday from 6:30pm to 8:15pm. It helped me to manage my troubled emotions because I also have a mental illness. Furthermore, I am trying to put things in perspective and allow God to work inside of me with the Holy Spirit. I feel at this time that I am getting better at managing my behavior. My belief in the Lord right now is very strong. Finally, I can say that I read the Bible and pray every single day because it enables me to stay strong. The Gospels that are inside of the Bible helps everyone to read and listen to the verses. Listen to yourself read out loud. Please pray before you read the Bible. Please ask God to talk to you. My name is Anthony Hopkins and I love all of you. I believe in God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. God Bless all of you. Remember to please pray for me. Remember that the Lord will always make it possible for anyone to believe in Him.

What Does Reading the Holy Bible Means to Me? By Anthony Joseph Hopkins August 26, 2022A.jpgWhat does Reading the Holy Bible Means to me? It means that God is talking directly to me. God’s Words absorbs inside of my brain like a sponge. It gives me the knowledge and the special action words that I need to listen to each day.Next, God’s Word gives me the confidence to do what is necessary for me to survive on earth. Every single time I read His Word, it helps me to grow as a human being. I want you to know that I really love reading God’s Word. His Word helps me to mature as an adult male; living on planet earth.Further, I want to inform all of you that I am willing to share God’s Word to everyone who is willing to hear it. I want to inform all of you that 2nd Timothy 3:16-17 says All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, That the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. Moreover, I want to say that if I need someone to talk to each day, I can always read God’s Word and it will calm me completely down if I am under a lot of stress. However, I know that God hears my prayers each and every single day of the week. I want to say that I am not a perfect person. I am a person who makes a lot of mistakes. I am a person who apologizes to God and other people if I have done something to offend them.B.jpgIn Addition, I want to inform all of you that my life has been filled with ups and downs during the past 56 years. I know that I have disappointed my parents numerous of times by my actions. My emotions during the past 56 years have been filled with angry feelings. I cried every single time my parents argued in front of me and my siblings.Furthermore, my parents were alcoholics. There were times when they did not know how to control their liquor. God talks to me all of the time. I want to inform all of you that God listens to all of my cries. I remember the very day that I had quit drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana. On Wednesday May 2, 1990, I have decided to give up the high cost to low living. This means I stopped drinking alcohol and stopped smoking marijuana on that special day. I want to inform all of you that this day is very special to me because two days later, I had a hernia operation on May 4, 1990.C.jpgAlso, I want to inform all of you that was with me even throughout my College Career. From Monday April 1, 1991 through Saturday June 14, 1996. I graduated from college twice. I earned my Associates Degree on Saturday June 12, 1993 from the University of Toledo Community and Technical College. I had a lot of fun during that special day. My Supervisor gave me a job two days later. After I completed my internship, I earned an A+ Grade for the work that I had done at the Jerusalem Outreach Center in Toledo, Ohio. Finally, God was with me again as soon as I graduated with my Bachelors Degree in Interdisciplinary Studies on Saturday June 17, 1995. God was with me because my behavior was not the best because I was acting like a crying baby at times. He heard all of my cries and concerns. I thought I was not going to make it through College. He did all of the work. The only thing I did was show up for class each day. I will admit that my behavior during class was not the best. This is the reason why God stepped in and helpedD.webpme to resolve all of my problems.———- Forwarded message ———From: Anthony Hopkins hopkinsanthony33@gmail.comDate: Fri, Aug 26, 2022, 4:44 PMSubject: What Does The Holy Bible Means to Me?To: Anthony Hopkins hopkinsanthony33@gmail.comWhat Does Reading the Holy Bible Means to Me?
