“I AND THE FATHER ARE ONE” “How long will you keep us waiting? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.” Jesus answered, “I did tell you. But you do not believe. The kinds of things I do in my Father’s name speak for me. But you do not believe, because you are not my sheep. “My sheep listen to my voice. I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never die. No one can steal them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than anyone. No one can steal them out of my Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.” Again the Jews picked up stones to kill him. (John.10) Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me. I came from God, and now I am here. I have not come on my own. He sent me. “Why aren’t my words clear to you? Because you can’t really hear what I say. You belong to your father, the devil. You want to obey your father’s wishes. “From the beginning, the devil was a murderer. He has never obeyed the truth. There is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his natural language. He does this because he is a liar. He is the father of lies. “But because I tell the truth, you don’t believe me! Can any of you prove I am guilty of sinning? Am I not telling the truth? Then why don’t you believe me? “Everyone who belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you don’t hear is that you don’t belong to God.” (John.8)… “ Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go and sell everything you have. Give the money to those who are poor. You will have treasure in heaven. Then come and follow me.” When the young man heard this, he went away sad. He was very rich. Then Jesus said to his disciples, “What I’m about to tell you is true. It is hard for rich people to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is hard for a camel to go through the eye of a needle. But it is even harder for the rich to enter God’s kingdom.” When the disciples heard this, they were really amazed. They asked, “Then who can be saved?” Jesus looked at them and said, “With man, that is impossible. But with God, all things are possible.” (Mat.19)… If the LORD doesn’t build a house, the work of its builders is useless. If the LORD doesn’t watch over a city, it’s useless for those on guard duty to stand watch over it. It’s useless for you to work from early morning until late at night just to get food to eat. God provides for those he loves even while they sleep. (Ps.127)
