is it? It just calls us to be obedient and obedient to God and to live a hard life.
are you ren? Some people teach that way, but that's not right. God
It is not for God's good that we are called, but for our good.

Are you very rich, but want to be taller and richer? I am God
All. But do you just want your children to thrive and your business to thrive? they are idols
All. Everything where God exists is an idol.
So does that mean that you don't want anything good? just make it dry
Are you saying you only want me? A person who gets rid of everything and loves like the monks of old
Does this mean that we should quit and go into the mountains to serve God only? That's not it. that's one
It's not the way you want it either. All that God wants is in God
It teaches us to come out and know that God is all things.

He had nothing to be proud of. just praising God.
So said. "David is a good singer." That was his major.
Purple. What boasted David in his lifetime! No pride at all.
