Who are we?....And what is our purpose?
Our Christian heritage is based upon the Lord Jesus Christ....The word of God....The Bible...and come from a " Traditional Faith " teaching background....but it is Christ who is our teacher...and our faith...and is drawing all those who belong to Him from every denomination to Himself.... and we are here to minister to them. We are His Light in a Dark world. Though it may be a little Light, right now, we know that it will grow into a bigger Light over time as the LORD leads us in this Ministry.
We know that it is only GOD who can unite Christians making them ONE as CHRIST is ONE with GOD the FATHER. And we know there are many Churches and Ministries that fill a need for Gods people. And we believe we are just another light to fill that need as Christ said:
The Kingdom of God is like a woman who adds yeast to the flour and it fills every area of the flour until it becomes larger. Of course you have to add a little water and a pinch of sugar and maybe a little salt to make the Bread. Christ is the Yeast and we are the water and the sugar and the salt to make the Bread rise. The flour is the lost that become Saved that make up the Kingdom of GOD. So it is with the smallest of Ministries to the largest of Churches and Ministries. They all have a purpose and that is, to grow the Kingdom of GOD, to keep adding the lost to the Kingdom those that belong to CHRIST and to all those that call on HIS NAME.

HE is RISEN !!! and we are risen with Him.
JEREMIAH 9:23-24.... Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth Me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight.
1 CORINTHIANS 1: 19-31 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. For the Jew's require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jew's a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jew and Gentile, CHRIST THE POWER OF GOD AND THE WISDOM OF GOD. Because the foolishness of God is wiser then men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For ye see your CALLING, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, and not many mighty, and not many noble, are CALLED: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in HIS PRESENCE. But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, LET HIM GLORY IN THE LORD!!!!! Amen.
Think on these HIS words to lift your spirit, because HE deserves all the glory and praise for choosing us to be apart of HIS Kingdom.
EPHESIANS 5: 1-3 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and and hath given Himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savor. But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints.( May these His words encourage and help your walk with the Lord and think about what He is saying.)
This is to remind believers their walk with the Lord is walking in the Spirit, but the spirit of what? Not the flesh, the flesh will lead you away from the Lord but the Spirit will lead you to Him and help you be an over comer in this corruptible flesh that does war against us and it tries to bring us down.
But listen Christian, that is going to constantly happen to us because it is a daily fight, a daily submission to the Lord and sometimes even when doing all that the enemy will still find a way to ruin our day, our emotions, our mental attitude and our whole physical well being.
But Praise God, the Spirit of the living God lives within us to comfort us and give us His anointing PEACE and Mercy to get us through any of the darts of the enemy throws our way, as His words say: In ROMANS 8, That we are more than conquers through Him that loved us. And in PHILIPPIANS 4:7 His word says: And the PEACE of God, which passeth ALL UNDERSTANDING, shall keep your hearts and minds through CHRIST JESUS.
Gods word tells us that we can do something about it, even through the pain of our suffering, when we walk in the Spirit. So if you are in a bad situation, or living in sin, walk away from it, do something about it, get right with God and make things right in your life. Turn your life around and change your mindset, choose to walk with God and obey HIM. He promises to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness and promises to walk with us and be our God. And HE will. Amen.
PSALM 14:1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
PSALM 34:7-8 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear Him, and deliverth them. O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in Him.

We are all dealing with things in our life, there isn't a perfect person out there or where everything is perfect to our liking, and we forget that sometimes, that is why Gods word tells us to pray for one another to help us through the mountains and valleys of life. And that is what a church ministry is all about helping people get out to the other side of their problems. The saying " there is strength in numbers " is very true, and that is the purpose of meeting together in a church or other places. To receive that strength from God and His people. And we want to be that place for you.
We know that we all will have ups and downs in this life and will always need a friend to be there for us and to pray and lift us up before the LORD. We will be here for you at Greatest Love Ministries letting you know we care about you and will be praying for you.
Go to our link ( about us ) and read through our whole website and learn who we are and why God raised up our ministry, and how we are a solution to a problem in today's world and that is to speak His truth.
Let us explain what we mean by Traditional faith.
" Traditional " meaning...We are very similar to the Catholic Faith. I guess you could say we are of a Traditional Faith Church. There seems to be discrepancies in every denomination. I have always felt that the Catholic Faith was the true Faith and still do but when I studied the Faith a little more I realized it seemed it has some flaws as well as other denominations. But I am still studying the Catholic Faith and the more I study it and watch Mass the more I can see it is the true Faith along with some other Christian Churches. And Christ already knew that HE could still build HIS Church, through different denominations in spite of imperfect people in an imperfect world and with some misunderstandings and discrepancies here and there. And it wasn't going to stop HIM from having the success HE desired and would achieve.
But like ST. Paul said to do everything in good conscious or not do it at all.
We love the Catholic people and the Pope. And we feel more Catholic than any other denomination out there. We are praying to the LORD to put us where HE wants us to be, a Catholic Ministry or remain a Traditional Christian Church Ministry?
We are not of any of the Charismatic denominations that preach the sole purpose of sowing money to a Preacher is to get money back, or other beliefs they have that is contrary to Scripture, that is all they talk about asking you to send them money.
There is a big difference between the Traditional Faith and these. But we realize it cost money to run a large or small Christian organization or church. And tithing to God from your income that HE provided for you will be a blessing for you and HIS Church, that is just the laws of life in any situation.
But some of who we are speaking of even intimidating you into giving them money. And we do not believe in some of their other beliefs nor do we practice them. Because we know from Scripture that there is only one Holy Spirit not two separate Spirits, and that same Spirit which gives us new life in Christ is the same Spirit that gives gifts to those to whom He chooses to give gifts to.
But some of these people are just using you to fill their own pockets and pay for their expensive homes and cars. There whole sermon is about prosperity, they place that above God and Godly living. But they will have to face God one day and stand in His presence and give an account of their actions.
PHILIPPIANS 3:18-19...For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping that they are enemies of the cross of Christ: Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.
What is he saying? He is saying, these people found a way to get what they want by sounding like the real thing. That is just what Satan did to Eve in the Garden.
Giving to the right cause and to the right Christian Organizations and good Church Ministries is a blessing and you are helping true servants of God reach the world for Jesus while you are also being fed by Gods word. You are laying up in heaven a reward for yourself where moth and rust cannot damage.
1 CORINTHIANS 12:13....For by ONE SPIRIT we all are baptized into ONE body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into ONE Spirit. Verse 14 says: For the body is not ONE MEMBER, but many. And verse 11 says: But all these worketh that ONE and SELFSAME Spirit, dividing to every man severally as He will. As He will, As He will, As He will.
Only God PLANTS you. If you plant yourself His words tell us that you will be plucked up. In ST. MATTHEW 15:13... Jesus said every plant my heavenly Father hath not planted shall be plucked up, and verse 14..says: let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. In other words God is seeing everything and knows the thoughts of man; He knows the false from the true.
1 CORINTHIANS 12:28-31 Now ye are the body of Christ. And GOD, hath set SOME in the CHURCH, first apostles, secondarily, prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues...... Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles? Have all the gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? The Bible says, NO. And in another place it says:, some are Evangelists, and some are Missionaries. It plainly says: And GOD, hath set all this in place. It's HIS doing. Not ours.
And if we take it upon ourselves to produce our own calling, it is not a true calling from the Lord, then the blind will lead the blind.
It is God that does the choosing and picks the person that He wants to use to preach, teach, etc. and glorify Him, not us. He is the Builder not us. He has set up His Church governments and how He wants His church to operate . As the Scripture says we are not all preachers, we are not all teachers, we do not all speak in tongues, and healing today is more about ego rather than glorifying God. Have you or anyone seen a paraplegic healed? Or someone's hand or other body part restored? Of course you haven't. Now there may be a few incidents that I am not aware of that God did do the miraculous for people.
Some things are fixed and unchangeable. But is that to say God does not heal? Of course He does and God has His own reasons why He will heal someone and not someone else. But we know He is no respecter of persons and it doesn't mean He doesn't love you just because you have to go to the hospital to have an operation when you think He could have healed you instead. Suffering is apart of a Christians life here on this earth and God is already helping us as His word says, that he lets the sun fall on the just and the unjust and we are to pray for all people the Bible says. And our focus should be on God alone and His will alone. Not our will.
And in some way or another as God already knows, we are all flawed.
Even St. Paul was afflicted by a messenger of Satan to keep him humble and from getting to proud, as the Scripture says, because he saw and heard things that you and I haven't and being in a corruptible body could cause him or any of us to be puffed up with pride. But is that to say that God will not help us get out to the other side of our problems? Of course He will but keep in mind that God is over all things and trust only in His words. Read your Bible. And don't be swayed by man's words.
Some want to be God, just like Satan, but only God is God. I am not talking here about overly zealous people who love the Lord and want you healed of a disease or sickness and are praying and hoping God will heal you or themselves, but they already understand the Scripture that it all rests in Gods hands, and that is where they leave it.
Remember when Jesus was hungry in the wilderness and Satan told Jesus, if thou be the Son of God? take these stones and turn them into bread and eat, we know that Jesus could have done that and anything else HE wanted to do. But what did Jesus tell Satan? That man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Christ had a mission to complete by God and Satan knew that if he could get Christ to show that He was God for Himself while here on earth it would be to Satan's advantage to win the Throne of GOD, but Christ obeyed God. Praise HIS HOLY NAME.
Some people are tempting God just like Satan tempted Christ and want to trip you up and end up damaging your faith, but God will punish them.
You do everything you can in this life to get the help you need and then ask for Gods help, I don't mean not ask God first, but what I am saying is: if you want a glass of water you don't have to ask God first you go to the sink and turn on the cold water and fill your glass with it.
And If your child got severely injured or had a very high fever, the first thing you would do after saying, God help me, is take them to the hospital to get help immediately right? And trust the doctor's to help your child and also trust God to help you. And God will guide you and promises to be with you in any circumstance of your life. Good or bad.
Remember we are all under the elements of this world we live in and will be affected by these elements that causes sicknesses, aging, etc., you can't stop getting old. Can you? So wake up and smell reality. And if you are at a good church you will have people praying for you that God will intervene for you and help you.
But if you are at a deceived church and if things do not turn out just like they wanted, they will try and make you feel like it was your lack of faith that caused the out come and that is not true. And that is one of enemy's tricks he uses to put your light out and damage your faith in God. So don't fall for it. And the enemy knows just who to use, those who belong to him.
If Jesus used His powers on Himself even one time it would have disannulled everything He came to do. And the cross would have meant nothing and we would all still be left in our sins to face a fearful God. But praise God Jesus overcame Satan for God and us. Amen.
People today want to bypass the affliction part and get right to the ( and God delivers them out of them all ) part. When Joseph was in jail 4 years for something he didn't even do, I am sure he wanted to get out as soon as possible, but it didn't happen until God wanted him out. It was Gods call not Joseph's call or anyone else's call. Even though Joseph asked for others help. And that is the problem people want to play God and overstep God and that is what the enemy does. I don't mean any offense to them but I have to speak the truth. They put their own opinion above Gods word and run with it and they end up at a dead end road, just like the Scripture says. Broad is the way and many go there and at the end of it is death. And narrow is the way to CHRIST and only few will find it, the Bible tells us. Will you find it?
So even though they know and speak some Scripture truthfully they misunderstand some other Scripture to their own hurt. Why? It is the god of this world who is blinding them, who is the devil also called Satan. There are two seeds (two sets of people) in the world today, one belongs to God and the other belongs to Satan. You will understand all this when you go to (Our Faith) Link.
But there are those that do belong to God, but they are deceived about some Scripture. And maybe God will open their blind eyes, as HE does for those who belong to HIM if they don't resist HIM and they want to obey HIM.
PHILIPPIANS 2:13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure. God will help us to have His joy in us if we keep our faith in Him, and we will bear fruit in due time and we will reap a harvest. ECCLESIASTES 11:6...In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand; for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.
He is telling us that it is in our own power that He gave us that if we work on ourselves and on the things that will help us, using all the Spiritual, positive building blocks that are available to us; and plant His seeds, His words of life for others to hear, something good will come of it. Believe His Holy words. And as HE said, that whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with all thy might and you will have success. Meaning work hard, give it all you got, and life will usually reward you for all your efforts. And so will GOD.
And remember your own humanity, meaning we all have shortcomings and sometimes they will show us up but your not alone, you have to ask Gods forgiveness and move on.
As the song goes: He can turn the tides and calm the angry sea... He alone decides who writes a symphony... He lights every star that makes our darkness bright... He keeps watch all through each long and lonely night... He still finds the time to hear a child's first prayer... saint or sinner call they will always find Him there... though it makes Him sad to see the way we live... He'll always say, I forgive... He can grant a wish or make a dream come true... He can paint the clouds and turn them gray to blue... He alone knows where to find the rainbows end... He alone can see what lies beyond the bend... He can touch a tree and turn the leaves to gold... He knows every lie you and I have told, though it makes Him sad to see the way we live... He'll always say, I forgive.
May these words help you in your daily living and may you understand what we believe and what we do not believe. And we hope to inspire likeminded believers that share our faith.
Our study in the book of JOB tells us: at the end of it all, God will never leave us nor forsake us. And the book of JOB shows us that Job had invincible faith in God, that when everything he had was taken away in a moment of time and he had to endure the most pain and suffering a person could endure, he never lost faith in God, he simply said the "LORD giveth and the LORD taketh away, Blessed be the name of the LORD". And God never let go of Job. Satan wanted Job to focus on the suffering and evil he was experiencing, to pull him away from God. But God wanted Job to trust in Him in spite of what was happening all around him. And Job did trust God and said these words:" I know my redeemer liveth". Satan lost out and showed his true colors, how evil and destructive he was and God showed His true colors, how merciful and good He was to those who put their trust in Him. And God rescued Job from the hands of Satan and gave him a better end and God has the same thing planned out for us also, a better end than what we started with. There is so much more to this study. We are working on a free booklet on the study of JOB. May God bless the reading of His word and bless all those that hear it. Amen.
Brother David Jeremiah has the best booklet on "Job" and the best understanding of it that I ever heard.
