ON DISCIPLINE<\/strong><\/h1>\n

One cannot on discipline choose a religion for people. Religion has often resulted in fanatical tragedies. All the major religions have teachings that moderate and open up individual thinking, within the religion, from being too “locked in”. The teachings of Jesus Christ in particular provide an evangelistic and firm foundation for spiritual development. The extremist views of religion have resulted in many instances of humans committing the worst crimes in the name of God. Rather, Sdbiblestudy Church adheres to Good Thoughts, Good Words, Good Deeds, as taught from Zarathushtra’s Gathas, a precursor to the Gospels of Christ our Savior.<\/p>\n

Sdbiblestudy Church provides discipline and spiritual benefit, which can be discerned in how we live our lives on a daily basis. We don’t live as perfect beings, but we are continually being drawn closer toward perfection in Christ and God, I AM, Yahuwah.
\nThis is what we teach, but no one chooses your religion for you, for your spirituality is yours.<\/p>\n

Bible study and gaining knowledge from nature, prayer, and meditation are beneficial practices of spiritual attainment resulting from moderate discipline.<\/p>\n

Here is an important passage pertaining to discipline taught by Jesus, from the Gospel of John, Chapters 14, 15, and 16. It is really a single teaching of Jesus Christ without interruption.<\/p>\n

TEACHING ON DISCIPLINE<\/h2>\n

Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father\u2019s which sent me.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Arise, let us go hence.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Abide in me, and I in you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father\u2019s commandments, and abide in his love. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

These things I command you, that ye love one another. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

But all these things will they do unto you for my name\u2019s sake, because they know not him that sent me.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

He that hateth me hateth my Father also. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou? <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

….<\/p>\n

I pray I AM, Yahuwah, lead us and guide us in all truth, in Jesus Christ’s name, Yahushuah Ha’Mashiak, Son of God, Savior.<\/p>\n

Amen. Amen. Amen.<\/p>\n

Peace and best regards,<\/p>\n
