- Romans 3:26
Believe on Jesus and He will remove all your sins away. Afterwards, follow Him doing His will. We can't do our will and His at the same time. Here the difficulty of a Christian is seen: we either obey His voice or not.
May God gives us a soft heart to always yield to Him even if it means stopping what we love to do. Amen.
#Repost @victims_of_miseducation This is intersting fact, but in reality the Orange, Grapefruit, and Tangelo are hybrids of different amounts of 2 fruits. The #Mandarin and #Pomelo. It isn't a 50-50 hybrid of the two, but it is a hybrid of the two. Infact all common cirtrus are hybrids of 4 actual species: Mandarin, Key Lime, Citron, and Pomelo. The #orange is unknown in the wild state; is assumed to have #originated in southern #China, northeastern India, and perhaps southeastern Asia, and that they were first cultivated in China around 2500 BC. In 1493, #Columbus #brought #orange #seeds #from #Spain's Canary Island to Haiti, where he grew orange orchards. An orange is a delectable pulpy fruit that belongs to the genus Citrus, the other famous members of which are #lemon, #lime, and #grapefruit. The scientific name of the sweet orange is Citrus sinensis, while the name of the bitter variety is Citrus aurantium. The #orange is considered a #hybrid, possibly between Citrus maxima (#pomelo) and Citrus reticulata (#mandarin). Many historians are of the opinion that the farmers of China established orange orchards by the beginning of the 1st century millennium, i.e., around 1000 AD. Soon, the nobility grew fond of this delightful fruit. This unleashed a competition among the cultivators to produce larger and tastier oranges, in order to please the nobility. Among Europeans, #Romans were the first to taste this juicy fruit. It reached the Roman empire around the 1st century BC. The credit for introducing this fruit to the Roman empire goes to the Persian traders, who had trade relations with India and Ceylon. So, oranges from southern India reached the Roman empire, and became quite popular among the nobility and the military #TheJourneyToAmerica⬇️ Oranges were introduced to America by Spanish explorers and conquerors. The Spanish explorers arrived in South America in the mid-15th century. They probably #initiated #orange #cultivation #in the #16thCentury in Cananeia, an island off the São Paulo coast in Brazil. In the United States, the first orange tree was believed to be planted by Ponce de Leon, a Spanish explorer. He planted the first orange tree near

Roman naming conventions
During Roman Empire, the Romans employed a system of nomenclature, consisting of a combination of personal and family names. It was called Tria Nomina (lit. three names), divided in: praenomen, the name who are normally called with; nomen, which indicated the bloodline of the family or the clan they were from; and cognomen, like surname, which indicated the household such as the modern usage. At times, they would use a third surname, called agnomen, for the ones who were adopted by the new family, but it hadn't a formal use. Between men and women, there were few differences: women usually had father's or husband's praenomen instead of one for theirselves.

Ayo this is kinda weird but I need to spread the word. In the book of revelation, in the Bible, it says we cannot know the day or the hour that Jesus will return, but I does give us a few things that need to happen first.
The Euphrates river will dry up (has happened)
Evil will increase in the earth (I'd say it is)
The nations of the world will rise up against Israel (this one makes me think we've got a few years left)
And we'll all be under one world government (I think there are more but I don't know them)
If the rapture comes and you're not ready, you're gonna go to a not-so-good place I think you know the name of, and you don't have forever. You can't get to heaven instead by being a good person. Even one sub is too many. The one and only way to get there is through Jesus. He came to Earth as a human and died for our sins on a cross, then rose again three days later and defeated death. The only way for a human to get to heaven is by deciding to trust that that really happened, that Jesus was the son of God, to accept that you're a sinner, and to accept the free gift of life and heaven from God. I know I'm not the best with words, but God is God, so maybe he can use this post. Try a local church. There's a really good Bible app called youversion and a website called gotquestions that can answer any question about the Bible. And there's also something in the Bible called the Romans road:
Romans 3:23 'for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.'
Romans 5:8 'but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.'
Romans 6:23 'for the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.'
Romans 8:1 'there is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
Romans 10:9 'that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.'
Please listen guys I don't want anybody to go to hell
