Radio Voice of Life, O Lord, see my loves

Dear listeners of the programme "O God, see my loves", greetings to you. I hope that in this programme, the Lord will heal the loves of your hearts and that you will have joyful and peaceful hearts. Amen. Dear listeners, I also extend my greetings to you and I hope that you are in good health and well-being in every moment of your lives. We thank the Lord for His living word, which in the Gospel of Luke, chapter 6, verse 35, says: "But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for He is kind to the unthankful and evil." Amen, amen. Truly, what a beautiful key verse it is, where the Lord Himself says that you should be kind to your enemies.

When we read our Holy Scriptures, we see how merciful the Lord Jesus Christ is to humanity. One of the greatest beauties of the Bible, dear listener, is that it paints a picture for us showing that there is no verse in the Scriptures where Jesus Christ asked someone, "What are your sins? How many sins have you committed? Are you unworthy? What circumstances were you in? Who did you kill? Who did you strike? Did you drive someone away?" Instead, we see that the Scriptures say that Jesus Christ went from one individual to another and said, "Be of good cheer, my son; be of good cheer, my daughter; your sins are forgiven." He never asked them what their sins were. The Scriptures show us, dear listeners, that it proves Jesus Christ was God Himself.

However, at this time, we see when someone commits a crime, they are brought before a judge because the judge does not understand their sins. They ask the person to confess their sins to see clearly. But with Jesus Christ, we see His divinity shows that He is aware of everything in our lives—our hearts, our thoughts—He knows everything about us, and He never puts anyone down or makes them ashamed. Even we humans, when we come face to face with someone, we often accuse them harshly.

Yes, more often than encouraging someone to show kindness, we tend to focus on negative things that cause distress, even ruining their thoughts. We say things that ultimately push one away. But Jesus Christ never puts anyone down; He simply says, "Just have faith; your sins are forgiven." Yes, and secondly, His disciples, except for John, fled. Yes, even Peter denied Jesus three times. But when Jesus rose, He came into the locked room and encouraged His disciples.

He encourages His disciples. He encourages His disciples. He encourages His disciples. He encourages His disciples. He encourages His disciples. He encourages His disciples. He encourages His disciples. He encourages His disciples. He encourages His disciples.

He encourages His disciples. In the book of Leviticus, we see that in the book of Leviticus, it states that "my sanctuary you shall keep clean." In the book of Leviticus, it is said that the sanctuary should not be defiled by any dead body because it is holy and set apart. Yes.

Also, in Numbers, chapter 19, verse 11, we see that it says, "Whoever touches a dead body shall be unclean for seven days." This may raise the question for listeners as to who should take the dead body to the cemetery. Who should bury it? Dear listener, it does not mean that you become sinful. It does not mean that you are distanced from God. This was a command that the Lord gave to Moses; it was not about being sinful or morally unclean but rather a ceremonial status that one must be clean to return to the sanctuary. The Lord Himself is a God of order. That is, the Lord loves order more.

The Bible instructs us to accompany the death of a friend or a body with respect for the appropriate ceremonies. That means the law of purification must be observed within a framework of mourning to provide comfort and solidarity to the mourners. This does not mean that we do not touch anything at all. But dear listener, as we discussed in our lesson, why is touching a dead body important? Touching the dead body brings back memories of those moments when a person looks at grief and fear.

Dear listener, each of us has witnessed the moment when one of our loved ones, our relatives, dies. It is inappropriate even to kiss the deceased. We have seen that when a child is told that their father has died, they cannot bear to see it. And that child is compelled to go and kiss their lifeless father’s body. It has been written in a book that such situations lead to severe emotional and psychological problems. Kissing the deceased. One child, aged 11, whose mother had fallen into a pit, was lifted by the child, and they had to take her out. Years passed, but the boy's face always remained stern.

He seemed distressed. Because he held a body in his arms and the people dragged him down in a way that affected his emotional and psychological state. When we see a living person, we tend to hug every one of them. We say we hit and tease them. But when that person dies, everyone becomes fearful. They distance themselves. It is shocking when that child or boy pulls their mother out of a pit, the lifeless body is terrifying. A child of 11 years old is afraid because they have pulled out their mother’s body from a pit.

And many people go into such sadness and depression. There are individuals for whom touching a dead body is distressing. Yes, that feeling is not easily forgotten. The pain lingers. This is the hardest thing in our country; when someone dies, they cannot forget quickly. Yes, it was written in a book that a person recounts how years later, the stench of decomposition from the body of a relative who was killed still haunted them.

Dear listener, do not let the body of the deceased be touched or kissed because the subsequent effects can severely harm others. I remember a person who was never free from the spirit of depression because of their grandmother. When their grandmother passed away, that spiritual burden never left them, and they remained in bondage.

They remained in bondage. They remained in bondage. They remained in bondage. They remained in bondage. They remained in bondage. They remained in bondage. This is a significant issue. Where the spirit of God is, there is freedom. Where the spirit of God is, there is life. Where the spirit of God is, there is peace. We entrust you to the Lord.

In our homeland, we see that we teach all kinds of fears. If our child makes a mistake, we frighten them. If they break something, we scare them. Some say it is not from the word of God; it is not from God. We tell them, but dear listener, try to place the truth of God in your life, the God who loves you, the God who showed His love for us humans on the cross and came from heaven for our salvation and for all humanity.

So these bodies of ours have been created for the glory of God. Death comes first to us, to our loved ones, to our families. This is a reality that we all must face. However, the word of God in 1 Corinthians, chapter 10, perhaps verse 23, says beautifully, "All things are lawful for me." Yes. "But not all things are helpful." Yes. It can be said that "all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any."

Dear listener, everything may seem lawful to us. There may be many things in our lives that are not beneficial. They may harm us. They may harm us. For example, in the Bible, we see that nowhere is it written that you should not smoke. Do not drink, do not eat. Meaning, things that harm us, that harm our bodies. But I will not allow anything to have power over me. Today we ask you not to let anything reign in your life. Anything that would distance you from the spirit of God.

So it is important to note that the Lord is a healing spirit. Wherever the spirit of God is, there is freedom. Freedom from the struggle and effort to achieve salvation. Not from performing religious rituals. Today, our dear countrymen pay much attention to such things. Many things are misunderstood. But only the Bible guides us towards the truth. That is, only in the Lord do we find joy. In the Lord, we find peace. We have health. There is salvation. Everything is about the higher salvation.

Dear listeners, we have salvation. As you listen to our programme, think about it. Make your own decision about what the truth of God is. Are we to live in this dark world filled with pain, anguish, grief, and depression, or is it that the Lord has given us a spirit of freedom? Yes. In pursuit of this, He provides you with peace, joy, and health. Indeed. But you must have faith in Jesus Christ. For the person who does not believe in Jesus Christ and does not confess with their mouth that Jesus is Lord and Saviour, the spirit of God does not dwell in them.

It is the spirit of God that reveals everything to us. It is the spirit of God that draws us away from pain, problems, anguish, and depression. It sets us free. Jesus Christ, in the Gospel of Luke, chapter 4, verse 18, says that "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed." And to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord. Amen.

The Lord touches us with His spirit. He releases us from our fears, sorrows, and grieving. Amen. If we take a step towards the Lord, yes. If we reconcile with God with all our hearts. Yes. We mentioned at the beginning that Jesus Christ never said how many sins you have. Or, "What a sinful person you are." "You have so many sins." Rather, Jesus Christ always said, "My son, my daughter, just believe in Me. Your sins are forgiven."

Today, we ask the Lord for you, dear listener, to be freed from these depressions, from these unforgivable things, from these burdens. May you be freed from the spirit of death and receive the spirit of healing, and may the spirit of healing share with you in the kingdom of God, reconcile with God, receive strength, and know that Jesus Christ is the living and eternal God. Thank you. Today, our topic was that we should not kiss the dead, and the stench of some corpses causes depression and alters our spirits.

Yes, our goal is your healing, our goal is the liberation of your loved ones, your children, your brothers and sisters who are listening. It is that you develop. Touching, kissing, having a look at the dead body, which we discussed in previous programmes, is not permissible; rather, it makes us depressed, it saddens us, especially since in our country and homeland, depression and bad states are very prevalent, and fears are abundant. That is, as much as we see, there has never been peace and joy among our people in our country.

Again, dear listeners, we hope that from our programme, you have received some insights on the topics we discussed, and you reflect on them. There are many worthless things that we overthink and see, but the word of God, which is valuable, is the living word; we should think more and more about it. As our programme comes to an end, we entrust you to the hands of the Lord.

Wherever the spirit of God is, there is freedom. Wherever the spirit of God is, there is healing. Wherever the spirit of God is, there is health. We entrust you, goodbye.
