That life NOW can be "more abundant" as we live in the love of God and our fellow humans, respecting the world around us.

Katiemygirl,
The first item on thread ARE DENOMINATIONS APPROVED BY GOD:
I believe that God does not approve of divisions in His church. The apostle Paul admonished the brethren in 1 Cor. 1:10 "That ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you."
Jesus told His Apostles that "He that hears you hears Me, and he that hears Me hears Him that sent me." Since Paul repeatedly referred to himself as being an Apostle, called by Jesus Christ, How do we justify getting so far from the words of Paul?
Best wishes to all who desire to know and DO the will of our heavenly Father,
Bob Prince

Except These--Matt 7:21-23-- Why do you think that is???? Because some teachings are but a partial piece of a whole truth. In the NT there are many things required of a mortal to get saved. Believing is but 1. Every wise mortal that has enough love for God and Jesus--learn all of Jesus' truths and apply them daily.
Here is a very serious teaching from Jesus Few do.

Man does not live by bread( sustain physical health) alone, but by every utterance from God( sustain spiritual health).--- This means--one must learn and apply every utterance from God.-- see that one is a little tougher than just belief. Takes years of study to get a deep understanding of the ot and nt( every utterance) Seems many just toss Jesus' truths to the side at their convienience--- not good.
Jesus says Many here at Matt 7:21-23-- Anyone that wants to serve Jesus, need to do the above. And this im[portant truth as well--John 4:22-24--The Father= Jehovah.

Calling on the name of the Lord requires serving the Lord in spirit and in truth. The name of the Lord is not a single noun. It is revealed to those whom the Father gives to the son of man because no one knows the son except the Father and no one knows the Father except the son and whoever the son will reveal Him.

Many think, to their own destruction, it is as man thinks but God's ways are not man's ways and my peace which I give freely is not of the world.

The Lord says this;

"I shall purify the lips of the people so they will all call upon the name of the Lord to serve Him with one accord."

Yes--truth--and where does one find that in light of Daniel 12:4)

That name mentioned in your scripture is YHWH(Jehovah) Same in the Lords prayer--Hallowed be thy name--Jehovah)Psalm 83:18--- This name belongs there instead of-LORD.
This is truth--John 4:22-24
