My Dear Brother,

I have not come here to condemn or judge you, but your actions are offensive and unrealistic.

You seem to have been misinformed about Jesus and what He has come to do.

We are all sinners and fall short of the glory of God as it says in the Book of Romans 3:23.

When Adam and Eve were in the Garden of Eden, as you most probably have heard, Eve took a bite of the apple and tempted Adam too as well,

He did and they were both chased away from the garden as punishment since now if they ate from the tree of everlasting life they would be eternally doomed. (first point where God shows His love for us all, He would not allow them to eat from the Tree of Life as they would live forever, but would be doomed for that eternity).

Many people leave out a crucial detail in the Book of Genesis, where it tells of how God MADE clothes for them, knowing that the wilderness outside the gates was less than pleasant. (Genesis 3:21)

Eve then becomes pregnant with the brothers Cain and Abel, and as she gave birth to Cain, she said "With the help of The Lord, I have brought forth a man." (Genesis 4:1)

Abel was in charge of the livestock, mainly being the sheep and being a good shepherd which is later seen in David, Daniel and Jesus, being the good shepherd, and Cain was in charge of working the soil, mainly farming. Cain, in due time brought his offering of fruits, but Abel brought fat portions and The Lord looked upon it with favor because the fat is nutritious, is is wholesome and can be used for many things, The ground was cursed by The Lord because of Adam's unfaithfulness, and that makes Cain's offering unsuitable since the fruit was grown from the ground and therefore was cursed too, and you wouldn't want to give anything rotten or bad to your parents and he gave The Lord a cursed offering.

Then in anger and jealousy, Cain kills Abel and The Lord says "What have you done? Listen! Your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground. Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground, which opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand. When you work the ground, it will no longer yield it's crops for you. You will be a restless wanderer on the earth." (Genesis 4:10-12).

To which Cain replied "My punishment is more than I can bear. Today you are driving me from the land, and I will be hidden from your presence; I will be a restless wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me." (Genesis 4:13-14.)

But The Lord said in return, "Not so; if anyone kills Cain, he will suffer vengeance seven times over." Then the Lord put a mark on Cain so that no-one who found him would kill him. (Genesis 4:15.) That shows that Our Father in Heaven STILL loved him even though a.) He murdered his brother in cold blood, b.) Was not remorseful for his actions for he does not beg God to forgive him and c.) He still wanted to set terms with God for he was afraid of being killed himself...then, to our surprise Our Father in Heaven STILL protects him even though The Lord said he was cursed to be a restless wanderer upon the earth...

Now you tell me...which god or diety would do that? which idol or even science could still do that even through the worst of sins?

Now we skip to Jesus, whom was a.)spat in the face, b.) was struck with fists and others slapped and mocked Him saying, "Prophesy to us, Christ. Who hit you?" (Matthew 26:67-68)

and it's not the worst to come, as later on when He was carrying the cross (our sins) EVERYTHING that could ever be done to an animal, a person hated so very, very much and without even a justified cause! He only shed the Love of Our Father and spoke about the Kingdom of God which is glorious and run by love, I repeat LOVE.

So He died, knowingly and choosing to do this, He died on the cross and He bled for our sins as it says in the Book of Isaiah 53:3-5.

"He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering. Like one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed."

So you see, He STILL died for us on the cross even though we did all of the above to Him. Who else would do that for you?

But, that's not the end, He rose from the dead transformed that not even His own mother recognized Him!

Now surely as I type this to you, the Kingdom of God is fast approaching and I urge You brother, although I cannot force you. Accept Jesus Christ as Your Lord and Savior, Repent (which means change from your wicked ways and follow the path of Jesus that He set before us) and truly become His brother whom will LOVE you unconditionally, I promise you that He does for He has worked many miracles in my life story.

So I hope that you will take this to heart and meditate on it day and night.

Godbless you and your family through Christ Jesus!
