Matthew 10:36 and How it Pertains to All People!!

By: Anthony Joseph Hopkins February 3, 2023

        Praise The Lord Saints!! Praise The Lord!! How are all of you doing tonight?  Fine, I hope.  I would like to start things off by asking everyone a very important question.  What does Matthew 10:36 really mean to all of us?  The answer is simple.  A Man’s enemies will be those of his own household.  What is the definition of the word foe?  A foe is a chief or principle enemy.  This can become in a form of principalities, powers, and demonic spirits. 

Therefore, I want to inform all of you that I am powerless over people, places, and things.  However, when it comes to the institution of the family, things can breakdown very easily.  There can be disagreements over comments and other issues.  It is that the very first family in the Bible was Adam and Eve.  They had two children named Cain and Abel.  I am focusing on these two individuals because God favored one over the other.  Eventually, Cain killed Abel over the simple fact that Abel was favored by God. 

Next, I want to inform all of you that in my family, I had 5 brothers and 3 sisters.  My mother had me out of wedlock.     I am saying this because my siblings and I do not get along with each other.  I want to say that it is not very easy to have brothers and sisters by different parents.  My Father’s name is Joseph Webb.  He was married at the time that I was conceived.  My mother made a conscious decision to take me to my grandmother’s house because she suffered from Post-Partum Depression.  I ended up staying with my grandparents for the first seven years of my life.

Further, I can relate with this Bible verse because all of our hairs on top of our head are all numbered.  When it comes to the subject at hand, I was subjected to having my name changed to Anthony Joseph Russell.  This is simply because my mother got married as soon as my sister was born.  My mother did this out of false pretense.  I did not understand why my mother had changed my name just to affiliate with a man.  That does not make any sense.  To me personally, I attended Edison Elementary School in Dayton, Ohio from 1971 -1976.  My mother changed my name to appease her husband Mr. Willie Andrew Russell Sr.

Moreover, I want to inform all of you that my mother had 8 consecutive children by Willie Andrew Russell Sr. This has taken place from 1967 to 1980.  I am simply saying all of this because this man tried his best to kill me by putting my head inside of a very hot stove back on May 30, 1972.  I will admit that I was staying with my mother at the time.  I came home from school hungry and I decided to get something to eat.  This man grabbed me and slapped me a few times on my face.  He put my head inside of a hot stove because he did not know how to properly discipline children.  He was not my father in the first place. 

In Addition, I want to say that this man was very abusive both physically and verbally.  My mother shot him at the time because what he had done to me.  My half siblings and I really do not get along because we have never learned how to really relate well with one another.  I also will admit that I became the Man of The House at the time because my mother and stepfather used to leave the house for a long period of time.  I also understand that I am not supposed to say things that are against God in any way.  This means that God is taking an account of what we actually say out of our mouths.  We will be held accountable for our actions.

Finally, this is the reason why I do not believe in men and women having children out of wedlock to begin with.  Anytime that men and women get together, it is best to start things off by being friends; instead of having sex with each other.  This is simply because it makes things worse.  When it comes to Matthew 10:36, my own family members and I do not get along with each other.  I know that this pertains to those who live inside of our household.  I know that it is not very easy for me to really relate well with people who are very contentious.

In Conclusion, I know that when I was a child, I stayed with my grandparents for safety sake.  This is simply because I was around someone who really did not like me as a person.  My baby brothers and I relate a whole lot better than the middle children.  I can really say that: there is also a lot of division inside of all of the members of the family.  There is also a lot of use of vulgarity and a lack of love in the first place.  My family members tend to group with one another and forsake those who are older than them.

        In Summary, I want to inform all of you that I am in serious need of all of your prayers.  This is simply because there are members of my family, who are really against me personally.  Matthew 10:36 is very serious to me because I am not accustomed to drama.  I cannot stand anyone who goes against the truth.  I am not supposed to fellowship with darkness in any form.   

Even when it has a whole lot to do with this world.  Favoritism also exist in my own family.  This is a complete shame.  Favoritism also goes against God’s principles.  My family members really choose these things.  I am saying all of this because I am not used to this form of behavior.  Please pray for me and the rest of my family.  Thank You very much!!

Leviticus 19^th Chapter by Anthony Joseph Hopkins April 12, 2022

Leviticus 19

King James Version

19 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy: for I the Lord your God am holy.

3 Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I am the Lord your God.

4 Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am the Lord your God.

5 And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the Lord, ye shall offer it at your own will.

6 It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if ought remain until the third day, it shall be burnt in the fire.

7 And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is abominable; it shall not be accepted.

8 Therefore every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the hallowed thing of the Lord: and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.

9 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy harvest.

10 And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather every grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I am the Lord your God.

11 Ye shall not steal, neither deal falsely, neither lie one to another.

12 And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the Lord.

13 Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbour, neither rob him: the wages of him that is hired shall not abide with thee all night until the morning.

14 Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind, but shalt fear thy God: I am the Lord.

15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.

16 Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour; I am the Lord.

17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him.

18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the Lord.

19 Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee.

20 And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid, betrothed to a husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; she shall be scourged; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.

21 And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the Lord, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, even a ram for a trespass offering.

22 And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the Lord for his sin which he hath done: and the sin which he hath done shall be forgiven him.

23 And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as uncircumcised: three years shall it be as uncircumcised unto you: it shall not be eaten of.

24 But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy to praise the Lord withal.

25 And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof, that it may yield unto you the increase thereof: I am the Lord your God.

26 Ye shall not eat any thing with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantment, nor observe times.

27 Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.

28 Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the Lord.

29 Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.

30 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the Lord.

31 Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God.

32 Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old man, and fear thy God: I am the Lord.

33 And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him.

34 But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

35 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard, in weight, or in measure.

36 Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye have: I am the Lord your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt.

37 Therefore shall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: I am the Lord.

      I am going to focus on a Bible verse from Leviticus 19^th Chapter.  Ye shall keep my Sabbath, and reverence my sanctuary, I am the Lord.  The Lord God wants us to keep His sabbath and keep it holy.  There are so many Bible verses from the book of Leviticus that I can talk about.  I am doing my very best to pay my tithes and offerings to the church.

 I read my Bible every single day of the week.  I know that I have only Him to depend on right now.  I want to inform all of you that I do not get any tattoos on my body because in Leviticus 19:28 says: Ye shall not make any marks or cutting on your body for the dead, nor have any marks on you.  I am the Lord.  I have marks on my body from getting injured in street fights from the 1970s and 1980s. 

Next, I want to inform all of you that I am not supposed to consult with mediums or psychics as well as persons who has a familiar spirit.  We are not supposed to consult with wizards as well.  This is in Leviticus 19:31: I want to inform all of you that I used to consult with mediums and psychics on a daily basis.  I do apologize and say that I am very sorry for consulting with these people; just to get defiled by them.

Further, I want to inform all of you that I used to consult with people who have a familiar spirit.  What is the definition of a familiar spirit?  A familiar spirit is a demon supposedly attending and obeying a witch, often said to assume the form of an animal.  A close friend or an associate.  This is the definition of a familiar spirit.  What is the definition of the word defiled?  Defile means to desecrate or profane (something sacred). Defile also means to sully, mar, or spoil.  Defilement is a very serious thing because it affects a person as well as those who they are associated with.

Finally, I am placing emphasis on this subject because there are a lot of mediums who work for California Psychics and other places.  They charge you $1.00 per minute to consult with you for a minimum of 20 minutes for $20.00.  This is a fact because there are people, who are being trained by a medium or psychic every single day of the week.

  I will admit that I consulted with a psychic with California Psychics in the past.  I want to inform all of you that a medium or psychic charge $60.00 per 30-minute session.  There are not telling the truth when they are talking to you.  They keep saying that my spirit is saying all of the time.  You have to lookout for repetition in their speech.  This is a giveaway.  Please read this information because it is happening in front of our eyes right now.  Please be very careful of those who have familiar spirits.

The End Times vs The Last Days of The Bible

By: Anthony Joseph Hopkins

        Good Day Everyone!! This is a comparison and contrast paper that is based on the End of Times vs The Last Days.  I would like to start things off by asking everyone a very important question.

 What do we mean by the End Times and the Last Days?  The first thing that comes to mind is the end of the world.  It literally scares me because I would not want all of this to come to an end.  I know that the Son of Man, who is Jesus Christ is coming soon.  We have to be patient and wait on Him.  I am doing just that right now.  I am waiting on the Lord.

        Next, I am patiently waiting on Him by maintaining my faith in the Lord.  My name is Anthony Joseph Hopkins and I am from Dayton, Ohio.  I am placing emphasis on the End Times vs The Last Days.  When it comes to the End Times, Jesus was talking to His Disciples by letting them know that the end is not here.  When it comes to Matthew’s Interpretation of the End of Times, his account is very specific.  There are Greek and Hebrew interpretations when it comes to the very end.  At least, for me, I am looking for additional insight when it comes to the very end of the system of things.  Every time I read the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, my thinking tends to change.  This is because Matthew was very specific about the things that Jesus Christ has said to the Disciples that they must do these things. 

        Further, I want to say that I am utilizing all four Gospels so that I can receive a dialogue among my colleagues and members of the General Public.  Honestly, what is being said by the Disciples has made me more aware of my surroundings and the people that is inside of it.  I also have to pay real attention to my behavior.  I know that I am trying to explain some things that are happening right now, and the things to come.

I have to become fully aware of the things that in the above image.  I know that there will be false Christs, False Prophets, Earthquakes, Wars, Rumors of Wars, Nation vs Nation, and Kingdoms vs Kingdoms.  I am aware of earthquakes in the State of Ohio this year as well as 15 Tornadoes in the Dayton, Ohio Area.  These are the things that are happening right now, and the Last Days are forthcoming.  To be frank with everyone, both of these events are happening simultaneously.

        The image that I have posted right now is from The Rapture.  I have seen things that have occurred in my 54 years of existence, and it has changed tremendously since 1980. 

This information itself has also been talked about in the Old Testament.  I want to say that every time I read the Book of Isaiah, Daniel, and Micah, it has been talked about in advance.  I am very apprehensive not about the present, but the future.  I get the impression that this is going to get worse before it gets better.

        Moreover, I only wish that I can see the Lord for myself.  I do not have any doubts about my faith in the Lord.  Like they say, nothing last forever.  I realize that this is a very long paper, but I feel confident in my attempts to come to a swift conclusion.  When it comes to the End Times, family members will kill family members as well.  Brother will go against brother; whereas sisters will go against each other as well.  I know that I have to do my very best to live for the Lord Jesus Christ.  I am not perfect, but I will say that I am living for Him. 

In Addition, I want to say that Mark 13^th Chapter is a repeat of what Jesus Christ told His Disciples regarding the End of Times.  There will be random acts of violence everywhere worldwide.  Mark 13^th Chapter is written differently.  I get the impression that the audience that this is written for is different. 

For False Christs and False Prophets shall rise and show signs and wonders to try to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.  Members of the Church will be confused by these people who claim to be Prophets and a Christ that is fake.  This is the reason why I am reading the Bible and observing the things with my eyes to see for myself. 

        Finally, I want to mention the Last Days because I have spent too much time on the End of Times.  The Last Days are going to be much worse than the End Times.  This means that everything that is mentioned inside of the Bible will take place.  I know that for me personally, I want to see the Lord for myself.

 It really scares me to see creatures that are dwelling among the people of the earth to destroy them.  I am very apprehensive because if I see a creature that is abnormal dwelling inside of this earth, it would really frighten me.  If it is inside of the Bible, God will have to allow me to survive all of these things.

        In Conclusion, I am praying that I will survive all of this.  I know for myself that the second coming of Jesus Christ will be a glorious appearance.  My prayer is that I can see the Lord for myself.  All of what I have been reading as of late has completely changed me for the better.  When it comes to the Last Days, things are going to be so bad that the safest place to be at is inside of the Church.  There are times when people lock the doors of the Church.  There is a profound fear that people are going to change for the worse.

Hi        In Summary, I want to inform all of you that we are living inside of a changing society.  I want to say that Jesus Presence is apparent to me and for everyone.  In reference to the End Times and the Last Days, I have to watch and be very careful of people, places, and things. 

What is The Importance of Salvation in All of Us?

By: Anthony Joseph Hopkins

Praise The Lord Saints!! Praise The Lord!! How are all of you doing today?  Fine, I hope.  I have a very important question to ask all of you.  What is the importance of salvation in all of us?  I would like to start things off by asking everyone the definition of the word salvation.  The word salvation means preservation or deliverance from harm, ruin, or loss:   “they try to sell it to us as economic salvation” deliverance from sin and its consequences, believed by Christians to be brought about by faith in Christ.

        The Biblical Definition is as follows: Salvation in Christianity, also called deliverance, or redemption, is the “saving [of] human beings from death and separation from God” by Christ’s death and resurrection, and the justification following this salvation.

        Next, I want to inform all of you that I am very happy to have God in my life.  Salvation is very important to all of us.  I believe in what God says to me.  I want to say that I am made right through Jesus Christ, who is my Personal Savior. 

Further, I want to inform all of you that God loves you.  He dwells inside of you.  I know for me personally, I have come a very long way in my Christian Walk.  I am very happy to have Jesus Christ in my personal life because it is very important for me as a Christian to have an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ.  What does “salvation” really mean? If you don’t know that answer, you won’t be able to experience the fullness of your salvation. So let’s clarify the truth of salvation.

A good place to begin is by learning the meaning of the word. Most believers think the word salvation simply means “to be saved from eternal damnation.” But it means much more than that. Let’s look at three things the word salvation refers to:

1.Salvation Includes Deliverance From Evil—Both Temporal and Eternal

Salvation refers to spiritual and material preservation, deliverance from the fear of danger as well as pardon, restoration, healing, wholeness and soundness in spirit, soul and body. It’s true that when you make Jesus your Lord you are saved from the penalty of sin (Romans 5:9). You’ve been delivered from hell and you’re headed for heaven!

2.Salvation Includes a Life of Freedom

Salvation provides deliverance from the dominion of sin in this life (Romans 6:14). Thank God, you don’t have to sin anymore! You have been born of God and you have the power to live a holy life—a life of freedom.

3.Salvation Protects You from Earthly Dangers

Psalm 91 tells you that you will be delivered from pestilence, which includes serious sickness and disease, famine, earthquakes and other calamities. It says you’ll be protected from sudden death that comes by the weapons of men. It promises you a long, satisfying life and deliverance from every kind of trouble that comes your way.

All these are wonderful promises, but they aren’t automatic. These promises operate under specific conditions, and Psalm 91:1-2 tells you what those conditions are: “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand]. I will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and rely, and in Him I [confidently] trust!”

If you want to experience the fullness of this great salvation Jesus purchased for you, exert consistent effort. Don’t give up, and don’t give in. Stand up for everything salvation has afforded you. Focus on the Lord and His Word. Stay in constant communication with Him through prayer. Experience all that is available to you through Jesus Christ!

Finally, please keep me in your prayers because I have to learn how to be as I am through Jesus Christ.  I want to inform all of you that I really love all of you because all of us are Children of the Most High God.  I am very happy because God is working inside of me.  He loves all of us that He died for all of us.  I am going to imitate God!!  We should imitate God!!

The Meaning of James 5:19-20, and how it applies to others.

        First, I want to say that I have been losing friends as of late simply because of what I have been writing lately.  I sure did not realize that what is inside of the Bible really offends others.  There are certain subjects that I am trying to discuss with the general public, and suddenly I end of getting the worse end of things.

        Second, I would like to expound on the meaning of James 5:19-20.  I want to inform all of you that if anyone of my fellow colleagues and family members err from the truth, I am supposed to help them in a spirit of gentleness.  However, I have to say that we all sin.  There are times when I get hurt in one way or another.  I want to be frank that I am supposed to help everyone that is in need.  I try not to get tripped up in any way by others.  It is that I am trying to make an impact for Jesus Christ.

        Galatians 6:1 and James 5:19-20 goes hand in hand to me personally because it all about helping my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus.  I know that I am not perfect, but I am imitating Jesus Christ with my behavior.

        Third, I want to say that it is about restoring lives and improving our communities.  I want to apologize for my actions if I have offended anyone with the information that I am sharing with people.  I am very sorry if I have hurt you with sharing the truth.  The message that I am conveying is coming right out of the Bible. 

        I am only saying that everything is right out of the Bible.  I am realizing that our communities are inundated with many forms of immorality that it is a shame.  I am making a difference because I am doing my very best to stop using vulgarity and getting upset over things that are trivial to me.  If I am losing friends, then, these individuals did not know me or love me in any way.  I am not going to stop loving others.  Whatever the Lord put inside of my heart through the use of the Holy Spirit, I have to share it with the public.

I would like to say that I am not better than the next person because I have faults and weaknesses just like everyone else.  At least, I can admit when I am wrong.  I can apologize for my mistakes because there are many mistakes that I have made in my life.  When it comes to these Bible verses, I can say that I am trying to clean up my side of the street.  I would like for everyone to meditate on these Bible verses because it is obtained right out of the Good Book. 

Fourth, I would like to read the Bible verses because this is the truth.  I am supposed to love everyone until I pass away.  I know that even though James 5:19-20 specifically states that I am look out for anyone who errs from the truth and help them in the name of Jesus Christ.  I am striving for spiritual progress rather than spiritual perfection.  If any of you are in need, please do not be afraid to speak to me.  If I can help you that is fine.  Therefore, I do not have anything to hide from anyone on earth.  If I cannot hide from God, why should I hide from anyone else?  I am calling a spade a spade and it is coming right out of the Bible.  I love you very much.  Even if a person does not love me back, I am doing my job for Christ Jesus.  Thank You Very Much!!

What Does The Bible Say About Doctrine?

        Praise The Lord Saints!!  Praise The Lord!!  How are all of you doing today?  Fine, I hope.  What does the Bible say about the word doctrine?  What is an example of doctrine? An example of doctrine is the Truman Doctrine that said the US would work to contain the Soviet Union. Doctrine is defined as a principle or group of principles which are taught by a religion or political party. An example of doctrine is the teaching of the Ten Commandments in Christianity. 

Doctrine (from Latin: doctrina, meaning “teaching” or “instruction”) is a codification of beliefs or a body of teachings or instructions, taught principles or positions, as the essence of teachings in a given branch of knowledge or in a belief system. The etymological Greek analogue is “catechism”.  What is the true doctrine?

Celsus’s own beliefs, the “true doctrine” referenced in his title, is that of Platonism which from a modern materialist perspective has its own issues of supernatural and thus unproved claims and assumptions. Yet this Platonism is not central to his critique of early Christianity.

Doctrine. … Doctrine (from Latin: doctrina, meaning “teaching”, “instruction” or “doctrine”) is a codification of beliefs or a body of teachings or instructions, taught principles or positions, as the essence of teachings in a given branch of knowledge or in a belief system.

This doctrine states that there is one God, a singular divine Spirit, who manifests himself in many ways, including as Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. This stands in sharp contrast to the doctrine of three distinct and eternal persons posited by Trinitarian theology.

Celsus

Celsus was either a Greek or a Roman who wrote during the latter half of the 2nd century AD. Very little is known about his origins or life. The work in its original form has been lost and the True Word survives only as excerpts from a work by the Christian scholar Origen, who quoted Celsus to rebut him.

What is sound doctrine KJV?

The term is found only once in the Bible, in 2 Timothy 4. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. — 2 Timothy 4:3-4 KJV.

Where does the Trinity doctrine come from?

The Christian doctrine of the Trinity (Latin: Trinitas, lit. ‘triad’, from Latin: trinus “threefold”) holds that God is one God, but three coeternal consubstantial persons or hypostases—the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit—as “one God in three Divine persons”.

Did the early church fathers believe in the Trinity?

Whether the earliest Church Fathers believed in the Trinity is a subject for debate. Some of the evidence used to support an early belief in the Trinity are triadic statements (referring to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit) from the New Testament and the Church Fathers.

Proverbs 23: 13-14: And What it means to All People!! By Anthony Joseph Hopkins November 4, 2021

       Are we supposed to use a rod to punish a child?  A rod is a metal object that is used in construction.  A rod is a thin straight bar especially that is made up of wood or metal.  When it comes to disciplining a child, a belt is used.  According to WHIO TV Channel 7 in Dayton, Ohio.  On Thursday October 28. 2021, a father of a ten-year-old child was sentenced to 51 years in prison for killing his son. 

The mother and friend of the family received prison sentences for participating in the crime.  Recently, another child was beaten 200 times with a belt in Springfield, Ohio.  A Biblical example comes from Proverbs 23:13. This Bible verse says Do not withhold correction from a child for if you beat him with a rod he will not die.  I guess the two examples of the incidents in the State of Ohio proves that the parents took things too far. 

Next, when it comes to these Bible verses, the parents did not exercise better judgment.  Another example of violence took place in Hamilton, Ohio.  A parent of a 6-year-old boy killed her son by dragging him with her car.  She attempted to give the child to the authorities prior to killing him, and throwing his body inside of the Ohio River.  Proverbs 23:14 says You shall beat him or her with a rod because you are delivering his or her soul from hell.  Is this a true statement?  Some parents are taking his too far. 

Proverbs 20:11 says Even a child is known by his deeds, whether what he does is pure and right.  This Bible verse is true.  I say this because a child learns how to sin from watching their parents.  When it comes to Proverbs 23:13-14, parents will have to exercise self-control.  In 2021 standards, some parents considers their children as their best friend. 

Are we sticking to a script in our daily lives?

        I have a very important question to ask everyone.  Are we sticking to a script in our daily lives?  When it comes to a parenting relationship, an average mother and father stick to their roles as parents of children.  This is because a person is trying to guide another person in the right direction.  When it comes to a script, it is a set of behaviors that are designed to gain an advantage or changing the behavior of another. Do not let anyone laugh you out of doing God’s work.

 John 10:10 says the thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.  This is because Satan and demonic spirits are sticking to a script.                  Its purpose is to annihilate everyone on earth.  They also have a program of destruction with the use of mind games. Therefore, Satan is the master deceiver. 

Currently, there are a very small number of individuals who are incarcerated or are sent to institutions to serve a sentence for crimes that they have committed. Satan is the accuser of the brethren.

 There are those who are deemed as mentally ill or have a psychosis.  Let’s look at the definition of the word psychosis.  The definition of the word psychosis is when someone who has lost touch with reality.  Some would say that the behavior fits the crime.  However, if a person exhibits a specific behavior, in some cases, it does not mean that they are unfit to be in society.

The Beatitudes by Anthony Joseph Hopkins

        Good Day Everyone!!  My name is Anthony Joseph Hopkins and I am discussing the Beatitudes in the Book of Matthew 5:3-10.  First, I want to inform all of you that the Beatitudes are great for the soul.  I want to say that the Beatitudes are an excellent source in the Bible.  Starting with the first Beatitude is Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.  When it comes to this Beatitude, it means that the poor in spirit shall inherit the kingdom of heaven.  What does it mean to be poor in spirit?  The answer to this question is as follows:

 The poor in spirit is ‘Poor in spirit’ is an odd phrase to modern ears, outside religious circles anyway. The traditional explanation, especially among evangelicals, is that it means people who recognize their own spiritual poverty, their need for God. Blessed are those who mourn is taken to mean people who repent and mourn for their sins.

Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted.  This means that whenever we mourn over our love ones, we are being comforted by God.  The word mourn means to become sorrowful or crying.  Feel or show deep sorrow or regret for (someone or their death), typically by following conventions such as the wearing of black clothes.

• feel regret or sadness about (the loss or disappearance of something).

“publishers mourned declining sales of hardback fiction”

        Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.  The word meek means humble.  What does Jesus mean by Meek? We now come to the third Beatitude:

Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Meekness is not a word typically seen in your average Facebook status or Twitter post. When people do use this word, they generally mean submissive, easily lead, or impressionable.  The word meek means quiet, gentle, and easily imposed on; submissive.

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness sake, for they will be filled.  The phrase for righteousness sake means to endure persecution for the sake of righteousness requires uncompromising faithfulness to God despite every threat and pressure.

Blessed are the merciful for they shall receive mercy.  The work mercy means compassion or forgiveness shown toward someone whom it is within one’s power to punish or harm.  So, to me, mercy is a “love that responds to human need in an unexpected or unmerited way.” At its core, mercy is forgiveness. The Bible speaks of God’s love for sinners – that is, for all of us. But the Bible also relates mercy to other qualities beyond love and forgiveness.

Blessed are the pure in heart for they will see God.  The Pure in Heart Means to “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God” (Matthew 5:8). “This verse means people that go all out, not halfway, will see God,” says Matthew, age 9. … “If your heart is good and doesn’t think bad things, you shall see God,” says William, 10. 

A pure heart is a heart that has warmth and comfort, that will make others feel cared for and in safe hands. This heart does not have a limit in giving, it does not limit welcoming others, and its doors will always be open for those who are in need.  Blessed are the peacemakers for Peacemakers‘ Mean?

Hill notes that persecuted is a participle in the perfect tense which indicates that Jesus’ followers had already been persecuted for their righteousness. This verse has often been cited as an argument for Christian toleration and acceptance.

1 Peter 3:14 says But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed.  Do not fear their threats, do not be frightened.  There is a gentleman, who is afraid himself.  He has a weapon and doesn’t know how to use it.  This young man is angry with me because he lost his job over a misunderstanding.  All this is a misunderstanding between two people that are going in different places in life.  The first person is myself.  The second is one of my accusers.  At least he had a job and a promising future.  Me, myself, I have written two books in one year.  My books are not selling right now.  Perhaps, I should have put more effort into it.  Whereas, the other person feels depressed right now.  Mom always told me to never allowed a monkey to stop my show.  I say that, just to say this if a man doesn’t work, he doesn’t eat. 2 Thessalonians 3:10.  Meanwhile, I was truthful in my matters.  All I am saying is never allow a misunderstanding to get worse.  It’s a sore that doesn’t heal.  The sore itself gets infected. The battle is not yours but God’s.

The Battle has already been won, long before we all were born.  Frankly, I have been shot before.  When a man looks directly at his accusers, he has already been identified by God.  It looks like I am taking a little trip.  It happened before, on October 19, 1979, I was a freshman in high school when my closes friend shot me in the right leg.  At least I have something to remember it by.  I had surgery to repair a problem that is 40 years old.  I remember on Monday October 30, 2006, I had jaw surgery on my right side of my face.  I didn’t know that my right mandible was fractured.  I guess if I didn’t go to the dentist, I would have bled to death.  My bone marrow was leaking from my jaw.  What makes this situation different is that we are two African American Men, who are going through different paths of life.  Frankly, I took advantage of what the US Government has given all of us.  That is called Stimulus Money.  I decided to use my money to publish two books.  I got into trouble for fraud, but My charges were dropped because I used my stimulus money to publish two books.  The first one is called Essays and the second one is called My Grace is Sufficient for Me.  It was a present for myself.  The battle is not yours but God’s.  I have my tax documents to prove that I have earned money from selling my Intellectual property.  I didn’t earn very much money.  I guess it was the thought that counts.

Today is a brand new day for all of us.  It is an opportunity to make things happen in a positive way.  Lord God, I want to thank you for waking me up this morning.  I thank you for keeping it real with me.  Lord God I laugh right now because life itself is precious.  Life is really what you make out of it.  Life is a course that we choose to make.  At least for me, I have had it all.  To lose it it is a choice that I make for myself.  Right Now, I prefer to share my love and wealth.  This is an opportunity for two men to make a life for themselves.  All that we have is today.  Tomorrow is not promised to anyone.  If you read Proverbs 27:1 it states that do not boast about tomorrow for you never know what a day may bring forth.
