Eusebius
of Vercelli
Jesus taught
the people in his synagogue in such
a way that they were astonished and
said, "Where did the man get
His wisdom and these miraculous powers?"
Matthew
13:34
Who can overcome the world? Only the
man who believes that Jesus is the
Son of God
1 John
5:5
Happy are the pure in heart: they
shall see God
Matthew
5:8
An open, enquiring mind, a caring,
loving heart, and a spirit intent
on service to the Father and to
others - all so disposed to life
and living will come to their fulfilment
and perfection. For I have lived
on earth, died and risen from the
dead that this, the Father's will
and loving purpose, should be the
destiny and the reward of His beloved
children.
All light and life and love is
of the Father, and all are gifts
which He bestows upon the sons of
men. And as each seeks to live in
truth and love so does he grow into
that maturity which brings him to
perfection at the last. I am the
life and light and love: through
My redemption and My risen life
all who are matured and perfected
are so progressed through Me and
through Our Holy Spirit. And at
the last they shall be presented
to the Father in everlasting joy,
with angels and archangels and the
whole company of Heaven.
