"Take this rule: whatever weakens your reason, impairs the tenderness of your conscience, obscurs your sense of God, or takes off the relish of Spiritual things; in short, whatever increasesye strength and authority of your body over your mind, that thing is sin to you, however innocent it may be itself" - John Wesley's mother answering a question on what counts as sin.

John Wesley Later on in his Life became the founder of Methodist Church.

Have your way o God, Please release me from my pain. Have mercy upon my soul according to your grace and mercy. Please o Lord cleanse me from my doubts. Work your faith in me I plead. You are the God of wonders, only to you I lift up my Soul. For your sake I give up my Life. Test me O God, please test my heart and soul, answer to my cry O Lord I beg. I mourn because of my failures, please take me to your self, let me dwell on your Holy mountain.

You are the potter and I am the clay, with covering of my feat I acknowledge that I am only a creature. Mould me O Lord to the image of your son.
Let me never fall away, that I may forever dwell with Christ Jesus -My Lord and Saviour.

Let me worship you with a pure heart and a right spirit. Let me live and fulfill the purpose of my Life. Change me O Lord and I plead that I may be used to bring healing to the broken hearted. Let my mouth forever declare your praise and give you Glory. Let me not get into any godless discussions, but may I be set apart and not participate in any quarelling, but may I be thought of wisdom from inside out of my inward being. That the fire of your spirit may blow upon the hardened hearts who's lives were never nailed to the cross. May your love shatter them like glass. For the sake of your Glory I pray. In Jesus name Amen.

Lord what is the point of life if I can't be Holy. For it is you who makes all things new. By the Blood of Christ you see me Holy. The ways of the Lord are pure and rigteous, for the Lord is Holy. I shall persue the Holiness of the Lord because I want to stand on mount Zion and dwell with him.

That any desires and otemptations of the flesh may be cast away. Please rip out my heart and place a heart that will be obiedient to your will and obsessed with your Love. Renew my mind o Lord, that I may speak word approved by the spirit in truth and wisdom, encouraging and Loving, for I pray that through my Life the fruit of thy spirit will shine. To know you! To be close to you I crave, To Soar with you I crave. In the name of Jesus Amen.

The following sermon jam was presented by john piper from his message entitled Sex and Supremacy of Christ Part 2.

Here is the list of things that Piper says that Christ is reigning over them with total sovereignty
and supremacy:

If there is anything admirable, if there is anything worthy of praise anywhere in the universe, it is summed up supremely in Jesus Christ.

He is supreme in every admirable way over everything:

• over galaxies and endless reaches of space;

• over the earth from the top of Mount Everest 29,000 feet up, to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean 36,000 feet down into the Mariana Trench;

• He is supreme over all plants and animals, from the peaceful Blue Whale to the microscopic killer viruses;

• over all weather and movements of the earth: hurricanes, tornadoes, monsoons, earthquakes, avalanches, floods, snow, rain, sleet;

• over all chemical processes that heal and destroy: cancer, AIDS, malaria, flu, and all the workings of antibiotics and a thousand healing medicines.

• He is supreme over all countries and all governments and all armies;

• over Al Qaeda and all terrorists and kidnappings and suicide bombings and beheadings;

• over bin Ladin and al-Zarqawi;

• over all nuclear threats from Iran or Russia or North Korea.

• He is supreme over all politics and elections;

• over all media and news and entertainment and sports and leisure;

• and over all education and universities and scholarship and science and research;

• and over all business and finance and industry and manufacturing and transportation;

• and over all the internet and information systems.

As Abraham Kuyper used to say, “there is not a square inch in the whole domain of our human existence over which Christ, who is Sovereign over all, does not cry, ‘Mine!’”[1] And rule with absolute supremacy. And though it may not seem so now, it is only a matter of time until he is revealed from heaven in flaming fire to give relief to those who trust him and righteous vengeance on those who don’t.

Scripture: Hebrews 11:10


"there is nothing you can want, there is nothing you can ask for, there is nothing you can need in time or in eternity, there is nothing living, nothing dying, there is nothing in this world, nothing in the next world, there is nothing now, nothing at the resurrection-morning, nothing in heaven which is not contained in this text-I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee" -C. H. Spurgeon

...Supremacy Love and Holiness my soul awaits, thy goodness shall re-affirm me in your Glory. Lord have mercy on me as I prove to fail your trials. You are the hope to which my heavy body longs to find comfort and rest in. Show me the way I should go!

Lord I am hungry to hear your
word which is sharper than double edged sword, sweeter than honey and more loving than the common phrase "I love you"; peacful like rustling of the leaves and fearful like a hurracaine. Speak o Lord for you make all thing good

"I speak but you would not listen you hear but you do not take in"
So I shall listen to your word and treasure it in my heart. The Lord is my shield, he shall struck down my oppressors. shame will cover him who tried to draw me away from my one true Love. For when I was born again I was moulded with the Longing For Jesus; hunger and first after him.

The Almighty Lord is my deliverer, by his spirit i will walk In holiness and righteous humility. I will shout a victory cry as I see the fulfilling of your promises of Grace. Thank you Lord and praise be to you king of Glory and mighty in Battle Halleluia AMEN!

The Glory of God shall overflow all the earth. In his sanctuary there is splendour and our inheritances, as we are the heirs of God. King of Kings, lion and the lamb, servant and Lord, maker and desroyer, in chains and free, dead and alive, conquered and conquror, God and man, sinless and counted as sin, innocent and guilty, wrath giver and wrath taker.
The King of Glory, my king King Jesus --the Christ.

Awesome are your deeds, please enforce your will upon me, let me experience the fact that you Love me -a sinner, which you made a new creation. What amazing grace that is! I am no longer condemned but I am concerned to save the ones which are still in chains.

When we often share the Gospel with somebody in a group or just simply one-on-one, we cannot make someone a Christian we also cannot talk mean or talk about hell in the sense of scaring people into conversion. One time I remember we had a guy at our bible study, we have laid down the Gospel to him he accepted it, prayed etc but after a while we started to see that he started to fade away proving it with his actions and words he called himself an 'agnostic Cristian' which doesn't exsist because you either are a Christian or you not, there is no middle ground.

After a while it got worse he mocked me and what I believe he Mocked Christianity and God. This has proved that what happened on the day he accepted the Gospel was just mere emotion although w still love him and he still is our friend the seed has been planted. Maybe after a while or couple of years he will realise that what we have talked about was true and he will be saved. We can now pray and hope that these seeds one day will bring some fruit.

So no matter what happens when you share the Gospel don't excpect immidiate results if you preached with the spirit you have planted a seed and keep on praying and have faith that one day the seed will grow to a tree that brings forth lots of fruit sonetimes it takes time and patiance. I remember one time when I was at my friends baptism there was a guy for which people were praying for more that 15 years to be saved. Sometimes seeds take time to germinate.

Don't be discouraged, with blessings Damian ;)

It is great and most beutiful thing to dwell in your presence, to feel your voice and know that I am your beloved. Your love it's so much sweeter than honey, overflowing like milk; the most beutiful and void filling is to know that I am eternally and most beutifuly loved. I am his precious child, he is jealous for me therefore I shall not fall, because of your love there are tears of gladness in my eyes I cannot imagine to live without thee.

THIS REAL! My king has conquered the grave, he clothes me in royal robes that I don't deserve o the chosen ones sing! Rejoice in that he is always faithul and good! He's love nether fails

By Damian Gaslawski

I pray that your name will be blessed and your son famous throughout the whole earth. Your Glory shall shine like the sun in the spring melting the hardness of ice that surround the peoples hearts, and your children shall rejoice at what thy hands have made.

For the miracles that would not have happened unless we as saints would pray, because of your Promise we Know that the great El shaddai shall not abandon us in these times of hardships and by his his comforting spirit we shall find great Joy that will be our strength in your courts.

Can the Lord be trusted? Who has made the universe? Lord isn't it amazing that I am still loved by you, despite my sin. You're uttermost good to me, thy mercies shine in the seasons of my trouble. Thy cleansing mercy, exalting, glorious, humble poured on the cross at which is the most horrible death following the wrath of thy father!

O how outragious is your Love! the king of Glory there he lies dying for me; raising up like fenix he destroys death and subjects it under his feet. When ascended to heaven he cries knocking on the doors of heavnly gates while the angels marvel astonished at something that no man has accomplished. It is finished the holy saviour, the Glory of Zion has won the heirs for himself. Now these depraved creatures have turned into beitiful new creations by the mercies of God, bought with the ultimate sacrifice, his own blood. This is Love beyond imagination! That one would lay down his life for those rebelious haters of his will and reforming them in the image and the likeness of his own all by the horrible yet glorious death on the cross. Slained by the wrath of the most high God. Jesus you are my high priest, thank you. Let the whole creation praise you all the more!

O how greatful I am that though I fail you never fail me, that when I sit in darkness you bring me into life. Beutiful king of Kings you do not punish me for my iniquity but you take it upon yourself. With your death comes life; death has no hold on me anymore as you've opened the gates of life and tore the veil. Now anyone who hears your message and lays down their life gor yor sake finds life. May all the universe hear your message, thank you that from my iniquity you've set me apart as far as east is from the west.

Lord as I approach the unknown dephs of the dark oceans,
please be with me lead me may your spirit never abandon me.
I love you and I am desperate to turn my cry of guilt into A cry of Victory please hold me tight as I approach the unknown vallies may the light of the truth light my path and the sandals of the gospel comfort me on my rocky path.

Then my Soul shall rejoice at your faithulness at the seeds that have ben planted and the Gospel proclaimed, a victory over sin, a victory over wrong attitudes; like with Gideon so be with me. For you get Glory for yourself even with a handful of men you give me a strength like of Samson's and wisdom like of Solomon and a heart like of Christs and passion of. Paul.

You provide and I serve, I am willing to fight on my knees with tears and desire, please strengthen me on this path and please help my carry my cross bcause with you all my burdens are light. Then the humble will rejoice and your people will be encouraged and heaven shall be joyful at your wonders performed, in the midst of the blind and heart broken your healing shall pour down on earth and strike the hearts of the unbeliving. Halleluia! God is great!

Lord I hate when my heart isn't fully gripped for you, although you manifest to me your graceful wonders of your love that is infinate and unchanhing my love is up and down it is unstable. Lord please, through the flames of your spirit reveal yourself who you really are, let the great revelation of your love strike me to the floor and aweken me from my sleep this amazing glory will lead my passion all the more and strengthen me to press on. O Triune God come please attend to my pleas, you are the one the truth and the life, the gateway of Righteousness through your cross that, aweful death that I embraced. By your spirirt you said your yoke is easy so please come and help me to carry your cross your stretched out hands o Holy spirit gives me strength and I have no bounds to what can I do. Rejoicingly I can enjoy and run and chase after these beutiful delivering and peacful sandals of my risen love of my soul -Jesus Christ who's wisdom love and peace know no bounds.

Beutiful is he that sits on the throne, help me insert your passion onto my heart o Lord don't let my heart become more corrupted heal me by the revelation of your love. This hunger and my half heartedness causes me great distress but it is my God who shapes me and it is he who delivers me and makes all things new. Therfore I shall press on and wait for him, his Love will never fail me but will cleanse my by his pure touch of his blood and clothe me in royal robes in his courts I shall dwell for all eternity.

Halleluia and praise be to the triune God who is supreme over all the universe and in whom all things hold together. He's worthy of all praise and glory for his wonders that he performs; though we do not deserve any of them how great and amazing is your grace Amen. He's love is real! He never let's down his children he makes his church look beutiful and pure and accepts her as his bride. praise this God of Glory! For he reigns on his throne with righteousness, the earth is his footstool and heaven is his throne the rain of his spirit falls on earth. See his love see his glory and grace the king longs to reveal himself to his creation so seek his face o you beloved seek his face you saints he's face is beutiful more than the colours of the sky and the beuty of the sunrise. The bells ring and so hurry run to his altar enter through the gate of thanksgiving and praise.
