About this ebook
It is our desire to help as many people as possible learn how to be happy, and have the assurance of their salvation. There is no reason for people to not be happy, have guilt, or not have the assurance of their salvation, if they want it, and are willing to learn what God wants from them and desire to please Him. It is our desire that everyone who wants it, would find ‘the Pearl of Great price’, and that they would have a well of water springing up in them, unto eternal life!
On this blog you will read many inspiring articles that will help you to know where you stand with God, so you can have life and peace, if you want it, and not be oblivious to your true need. It is our desire that you would see how easy it is to get these wonderful gifts from God and much more! We will show you the secrets of how to get all the peace, love, joy, faith and happiness you were meant to have, and have the power to live a righteous life.
In this book you will see all of the articles that have been written so far in this blog from January 2017 to December 2017. As the year progresses, at several points, we hope to offer updates to this volume, to add the newer articles.
May God bless you as you read these articles and let His Spirit touch your heart!
This book has been edited in such a way as to make it work as best as possible for audio readers in the eBook versions, to be able to listen to it being read. This opens up this book for people who are blind, or have trouble reading, or for busy people who want to just listen to it while driving, walking, jogging, or working around home, etc. Sometimes you just want to relax, and not have to think too much, and just listen to an inspirational book being read. I recommend that you get a good text-to-speech Book Reader App, so that you can enjoy the full experience of this book.
John Foll
I was raised a Christian, born the son of a minister and a theology college professor. For many years, I was trying my best to do what God wanted, but not being consistent spiritually; I had problems with worldliness in my life. I believed that I 'knew the truth', as some people would say, but there was something big lacking in my life. I wanted to have the power to live a righteous life, but this was beyond my best efforts. I was missing the personal knowledge of how much God loved me! I thought I knew what this was before, but I didn’t. I hadn’t given my heart to God all the way, even though I thought I had, when baptized as a boy. By the end of 2013 or later, a wonderful change took place in my life, after I was listening to an inspirational audio book many times, that was written in the Late 1800’s, and my life will never be the same! The truth was so inspirational, I wanted to hear it again and again, hoping that I could absorb it, it was so wonderful to my heart! I decided to give my heart to God all the way! I thought I had done this years before, but I had not given it to Him all the way. But I didn’t know then that I needed to give my heart to God every day! Then God filled my heart with great peace, love, joy and faith! This was what I had been searching for and wanting all of my life! I never knew such love and joy existed! God’s love for you will help you to love and trust Him too, like He did for me. If you confess all of your sins, and give your heart to Him, there is nothing to fear for your future. This will give you great peace. Your salvation is secure as long as you keep confessing your sins to Him, and keep giving your heart to Him: no one can take this away from you! “For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38-39 NASB. “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” Romans 8:1 KJV. It is my desire to help as many people as possible become as happy as I am, and even more so, if that is possible! It is also my desire to help as many people as possible to have the power to please God, and the assurance of their own salvation with Him! God want’s everyone to know, that if they will, He will help them and bless them, and give them a new life with Him. I endeavor to show in my books, how to get to know God, and how to get this everlasting peace, love, joy, faith, and happiness, that He wants to give to everyone who would have it. And that we don’t have to wait until we get to Heaven to have peace, joy, love and faith. It is God’s desire to give it to us now! And these gifts from God will enable those who receive it to have everlasting life! It is my prayer, dear reader, that you would desire, and get these blessings from God for yourself!

"And He [Jesus] also told this parable to some people who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and viewed others with contempt:" Luke 18:9 NASB. Have you met individuals who think that they are good and view others with contempt? Have you heard individuals who are quick to talk about others behind their back and hurt their reputation? Then you know those whom Jesus is addressing. Do you think that you are good? Do you have trouble protecting the feelings and reputations of others? Do people who break God’s Law or do not believe the Truth
get you all fired up? We hope that you will keep reading this message, if any of these points hit home. Jesus’ message wasn’t just to rebuke the self-righteous, He loved these people and wanted to help them before it was too late! Can you see the love in His message here? The problem that Jesus is addressing is a very common problem in humanity. Many people have had this problem in their life at one time or another. Jesus was telling some people here that they needed to make a change if they wanted to be saved.
We took a pause from finishing this passage in Luke to contemplate Jesus’ message here. People read that Jesus was speaking to the Pharisees, then think that this message doesn’t apply to them, and say ‘I am glad I am not a sinner like that Pharisee’. Many people are OK with hearing a message, if they think that it applies to someone else. So think about this message, and not just jump to the conclusion that it doesn’t apply to you. Often people just read a passage, and run with what they think it means, and skip over some of what has been said. So it is beneficial to read the whole passage, and read every word of it, not skipping over parts of it, to get the whole truth, especially for parts that are often ignored. It is good to hear a startling message to help you wake up, or to hear a message stated from a different perspective, so you can be at peace.
Jesus continues:
""Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood and was praying this to himself: 'God, I thank You that I am not like other people: swindlers, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. 'I fast twice a week; I pay tithes of all that I get.' But the tax collector, standing some distance away, was even unwilling to lift up his eyes to heaven, but was beating his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me, the sinner!' I tell you, this man went to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted. Luke 18:10-14 NASB.
Why was the tax collector justified before God, and not the Pharisee in this account? Because he humbled himself before God and begged for His mercy! The Pharisee didn’t. ‘There is no one who does good, not even one.’ Psalm 14:3 NASB. So why wasn’t this Pharisee justified before God?
