當我們效法基督的生平時，總會伴隨著苦難和十字架的重擔。 正如經上所記:「凡立志在基督耶穌裡敬虔度日的也都要受逼迫」，又如耶穌所說:「若有人要跟從我，就當…背起他的十字架來跟從我」，所有為天國榮耀而活的人，其生命中必然會伴隨著短暫的苦難。 選擇天國之樂的人所傳講的基督安商洪和母親上帝的福音是什麼？ 以掃和加略人猶大隨從肉體，追求罪中的享樂，最終失去了天國的祝福。然而，摩西、雅各、但以理和他的三個朋友卻因更加珍視天國的福樂而克服了種種苦難。 同樣，上帝的教會的聖徒們將希望寄託於上帝所應許的天國的福樂，並致力於傳揚新約安息日和逾越節的祝福，正如他所吩咐的那樣。 摩西因著信，長大了就不肯稱為法老女兒之子。 他寧可和上帝的百姓同受苦害，也不願暫時享受罪中之樂。 他看為基督受的凌辱比埃及的財物更寶貴，因他想望所要得的賞賜。 希伯來書 11:24-26

The wildfires that ignited in the Los Angeles area on January 7 were reported by multiple media outlets as the most devastating wildfire disaster in California history. Being exacerbated by extremely dry conditions and up to 100 mph Santa Ana winds, various fires broke out in residential neighborhoods such as the Pacific Palisades, Altadena and Sylmar. As evacuation orders went out, the fires spread rapidly, scorching acres of land and displacing thousands of residents. Though containment of the fires continue to grow, the situation remains critical as firefighters continue to fight active blazes and suppress hot spots amidst challenging conditions. Given the devastation of the recent fires, our hearts truly go out to all whom have been affected. As those who carry out the mission of sharing Heavenly Mother’s love with the whole world, the Church of God has partnered with the LA Fire Department and other community organizations to help support first responders and members of the community who have been affected by these tragic events. These firefighters have been relentlessly battling the devastating fires and diligently working to contain their spread. The opportunity was given to serve a warm meal to these first responders who risk their lives protecting others. Mario Quintana from Los Angele County Fire Department in Agoura Hills, was really touched by the heartfelt work on the volunteers who woke up early in the morning to prepare hot meals to encourage the firefighters. The Taco truck was brought to serve them with warm meals by members of the Church. This is the worst fire in the history of California, and it has been tedious on firefighters as well. A warm meal to comfort them before they begin the day has been the motto of the Church members during this time. As Heavenly Mother never forgets even one of her children but considers all of them. As most of the weight of containing the fire has been on the firefighters, it has become the custom of the Church members to comfort them in every and all ways possible.

✈️ PATTS College of Aeronautics & Olivarez College Sa gitna ng dumaraming balita tungkol sa karahasan at krimen na kinasasangkutan ng kabataan, patuloy na nagsasagawa ang ASEZ volunteers ng makabuluhang hakbang upang magbigay ng kaalaman at pag-asa sa mga estudyante. Noong Nobyembre 13, 2025, matagumpay na isinagawa ang ASEZ Crime Prevention Seminar sa Audio Visual Room ng PATTS College of Aeronautics bilang bahagi ng ASEZ Reduce Crime Together (RCT) Project. Binuksan ang programa ni ASEZ Parañaque Branch Manager Phil Park sa pamamagitan ng kanyang opening remarks, na sinundan ng mensahe ng suporta mula kay Dr. Catherine M. Camposano, Principal ng PATTS Senior High School. Humigit-kumulang 400 estudyante at mga guro ang dumalo sa seminar. Naging tampok dito ang lecture ni PMSG Napoleon R. Mallari Jr. mula sa Investigation and Detective Management Section tungkol sa “Crime Awareness Modus Operandi,” na nagbigay ng mahalagang kaalaman ukol sa pag-iwas sa iba’t ibang uri ng krimen. Ibinahagi rin ni Angeleijh Louise T. Gardola, isang estudyante ng PATTS, ang kanyang magandang impresyon tungkol sa ASEZ. Ayon sa kanya, “Napaka-organized ng ASEZ volunteers at napakabait nila sa amin. Pinaramdam nila na kabilang kami sa seminar. Sana balang araw ay maging miyembro rin ako ng ASEZ.” Naging mas masigla ang programa sa pamamagitan ng interactive activities sa pagitan ng mga estudyante at ASEZ volunteers, na lalong nagpakita ng aktibong partisipasyon ng mga kabataan. Nagkaroon din ng support signature campaign bilang simbolo ng pagkakaisa para sa isang mas mapayapa at ligtas na lipunan. Nagpahayag naman ng taos-pusong pasasalamat si Virgilio V. Dolina, Discipline Information Officer, para sa mahalagang kontribusyon ng ASEZ sa komunidad. Samantala, matagumpay ding naisagawa ang ASEZ RCT Seminar sa Olivarez College sa parehong araw. Muling pinangunahan ni Phil Park ang pagbubukas ng programa kung saan mahigit 120 kalahok ang dumalo. Nagbigay rin ng makabuluhang mensahe sina Captain Aries Kent Comia, Head ng Community Affairs Section ng PNP–Parañaque, at Hon. Eric L. Olivarez, Vice Chairman at VP for Academic Affairs ng Olivarez College. Lalong naging makahulugan ang programa sa pamamagitan ng ASEZ RCT Lecture at musical performance ng awiting “When You Believe.” Ayon kay Hon. Eric L. Olivarez, naging napaka-informatibo at interactive ng forum. Aniya, maraming natutunan ang mga estudyante ng Olivarez College, at kapuri-puri ang adhikain ng ASEZ dahil hindi lamang crime prevention kundi pati disaster resilience ang isinusulong nito para sa kapakanan ng komunidad. Sa pamamagitan ng ASEZ Reduce Crime Together Project, patuloy na nagkakaisa ang mga kabataan upang makapaghatid ng pag-asa, kamalayan, at positibong pagbabago tungo sa isang mas ligtas at mapayapang lipunan.

要相信「上帝始終是在賜福給我們」這一根本事實，並倚靠上帝 正如以色列百姓四十年的曠野生活，最終蘊含著上帝要賜福給他們的偉大旨意一樣，今天在信仰的道路上，上帝有時也會讓每一個人經歷苦難與障礙。然而，他最終的旨意，是要使我們的靈魂達到完全，並賜給我們天國的祝福。 上帝的教會遵守新約逾越節，即赦罪的應許 地球是一座屬靈的監獄，那些犯下滔天罪行的天使被驅逐於此。因此，在這世間，痛苦和磨難遠比和平幸福來得頻繁。 為了洗淨人類的罪孽，上帝在十字架上流血，並通過新約逾越節，為我們開闢了回歸天國的道路，這條道路通往赦罪。 又在曠野將你列祖所不認識的嗎哪賜給你吃，是要苦煉你，試驗你，叫你終久享福 申命記 8:16 「人子來，為要尋找、拯救失喪的人。」 路加福音 19:10

上帝的教會是光和鹽，驅散黑暗，淨化邪惡。 當上帝的兒女按照上帝的教導成為世上的光和鹽，用善行彰顯上帝的榮耀，用新約的真理引導人類歸向上帝時，上帝必喜悅，並在他們站在上帝面前的日子賜予他們豐盛的祝福。 在我們站在上帝面前的那一天，誰將蒙受救恩的恩典，誰將接受審判。 如果我們已經在聖靈時代接受了基督安商洪和耶路撒冷天上母親，那麼從現在起，我們必須拋棄從世俗中學到的惡習，穿上基督徒的新生命。 隨著這個世界越來越失去敬虔，變得邪惡墮落，我們必須認識到，上帝的審判日臨近了，就像挪亞和羅得的時代一樣，因此我們更要過敬虔的生活。 所以，弟兄們，我以上帝的慈悲勸你們，將身體獻上，當作活祭，是聖潔的，是上帝所喜悅的；你們如此事奉乃是理所當然的。 不要效法這個世界，只要心意更新而變化，叫你們察驗何為上帝的善良、純全、可喜悅的旨意。 羅馬書 12:1-2
