GOD PARTICLE

     

   “…In the beginning, Lord, you founded the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands;

they will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like clothing; like a cloak you will roll them
up, and like clothing they will be changed. But you are the same, and your years will never end” (Heb 1:10-12).

     The discovery of the Higgs boson particle, commonly referred to as the God Particle, on July 3rd,

2012, is considered to be one of the biggest and most ambitious scientific experiment in human history.

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is a 27-kilometre long underground experiment located on

the Swiss-French border near Geneva. It smashes subatomic particles together at vast speeds in an effort

to learn more about the fundamental building blocks that make up everything around you. Physicists

believe that this special subatomic particle allows all of the other particles in the universe to have mass

and come together to form, well, basically everything that is around us. Scientists say without these God

particles, atoms would have no integrity. That means there would be no chemical bonding, no stable

structures, no liquids or solids. That also can mean you and I would not have been.

    This great discovery strengthens our faith and increases our belief in the providence of God. We are
reminded of the Word of God, “He has made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good
pleasure that he set forth in Christ, as a plan for the fullness of time, to gather up all things in him,
things in heaven and things on earth” (Eph 1:10). God built such a tiny particle into the deepest part of
the creation. “For in him all things in heaven and on earth were created, things visible and invisible,
whether thrones or dominions or rulers or powers—all things have been created through him and for
him. He himself is before all things, and in him all things hold together” (Col 1:16-17). Is it not so

wonderful that our modern scientists have disclosed such a wonderful thing!

   Creation has a purpose: Soon after the above discovery there were many comments by intellectuals.

One of them was that this universe has come into being by chance and there is no purpose to it. When we

read the book of Ecclesiastes we come across such an ideology. “Again I saw that under the sun the race
is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the intelligent, nor
favour to the skilful; but time and chance happen to them all” (Eccl 9:11). Scientists often talk about

luck, chance, and randomness. According to Quantum indeterminancy, there is a degree of a certain

randomness is built into the whole of universe. Now the discovery of God particles makes us understand

that the whole of Universe is unified and interconnected. Higgs Boson particles delicately holds the

universe together. “For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm” (Ps 33:9).

   I know a wealthy family with a mentally challenged child. The parents take care of the child with

utmost care and love. Their other five children are well educated and well settled in various parts of the

world. Because of this particular child parents cannot travel and are house bound. I was very amazed to

hear from the parents that the handicapped child is a blessing to the family. The reason they give is that

this child has made them more God-fearing, devout and prayerful. They say that they can boast of only

taking care of this helpless little angel God has put in their charge. “We know that all things work
together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose” (Rom 8:28).

   God’s Purpose: We cannot understand God’s purpose for our life by starting with a focus on

ourselves. You see, we exist only because God wills that we exist. We were made by God and for God and

until we know that deep inside, life will never make sense. “For “In him we live and move and have our
being”; as even some of your own poets have said, “For we too are his offspring” (Acts 17:28). It is

only in a relationship with Jesus you discover who you are and purpose of our life. You may have many

achievements and accomplishments in life, but without a relationship with Jesus your life will lack

meaning and purpose. Why is that? Because your life is based on what you want to do, instead of what

God wants to do in you. Therefore listen to John the Baptist who came to welcome Jesus, “He went into
all the region around the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins, as it
is written in the book of the words of the prophet Isaiah, ‘The voice of one crying out in
the wilderness: “Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight” (Luke 3:3-4).

Pramila had a fall from her scooter. It was not a major accident yet her knee bones were severely

damaged. Doctors expressed fears about her being completely healed in her knees even after operation.

She came to Divine Call Centre with tears in her eyes. She cried out to the Lord and prayed to Jesus to

have mercy on her little children and young husband. It was a miracle that she started feeling better and

later doctors performed the complicated knee operation. Even the doctors say that it is a miracle that she

is completely healed in her knees. Praise the Lord! “All things came into being through him, and
without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being in him was life, and the life was
the light of all people” (Jn 1:3-4).

   It took hundreds of years for scientists to accept with scientific proofs and logical conclusions to know

that the universe has come into being and is sustained by tiny particles called Higgs Boson. Whereas these

tiny particles come from God who is the Eternal Spirit. Human eyes could not behold Him. “He was in
the world, and the world came into being through him; yet the world did not know him… and his own
people did not accept him” (Jn 1:9-10). Scientists may take few more years but will come to a logical
conclusion that there is God from whom all things have come into being.

   You have a purpose: If you and I are in this world, it is not by chance or luck, it is by the wise plan of
God. “For David, after he had served the purpose of God in his own generation, died, was laid beside
his ancestors, and experienced corruption” (Acts 13:36). David fulfilled the purpose of God in his own

generation, fell asleep, and was laid among his fathers and underwent decay. God has a purpose for every

generation. He chooses men and women obedient to Him to fulfill His purpose. St. Arnold Jansen,

founder of the society of the Divine Word (SVD) fulfilled the purpose of God to preach the Word of God

in places where Word of God was not preached or insufficiently preached. St. Joseph Freinandemetz the

first SVD missionary to China fulfilled the purpose of God by going to China and bringing the light of the

Word to millions of Chinese. God chose St. Thomas to proclaim the Good News to the people of Kerala

two thousand years ago. St. Francis Xavier was chosen in 16th century to preach the Kingdom of God in

Goa. The universe is not a result of chance and opportunity but rather the plan of God. In this plan of

God, you and I do have a place. That purpose is fulfill the purposes of God. St. Paul understood this plan

of God, “But when God, who had set me apart before I was born and called me through his grace, was
pleased to reveal his Son to me, so that I might proclaim him among the Gentiles…” (Gal 1:15-16).

   “Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the presence of his brothers; and the spirit
of the Lord came mightily upon David from that day forward. Samuel then set out and went to Ramah”
(1Sam 16:13). When Saul fell into sin and refused to repent, God chose a simple shepherd boy to fulfill

His purpose for that generation. When we become disobedient to fulfill God’s purpose God chooses

someone else. Though David received the anointing to be the king at the age of 17 and it was not till he

was thirty that he was made king of both Judah and Israel. In between, he went through many hardships

and difficulties. Yet yet he kept a close relationship with God. “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not
want…Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the
house of the Lord my whole life long” (Ps 23:1.6).

   A sixty year old person felt God is calling him to proclaim the Word of God. He has two grown up

sons who are settled in life. He attended many retreats and confirmed that this call is from God. Then he

approached the Archbishop of Mumbai to give him permission to be a preacher. The Archbishop prayed

over and decided to put him through three years of formation and then ordain him a permanent deacon.

Now he is attending the theology and scripture courses in the major seminary in Goregaon. You are also

called by God for a purpose. Do a retreat and ask the Holy Spirit to confirm your mission on earth. “…
He chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless before him in love.
He destined us for adoption as his children through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of his
will” (Eph 1:4-5).

Prayer: We thank you Lord for the wonderful universe you have created and for the marvelous way

you have given me a place in eternal plans. May I never cease to be in touch with You and fulfill the

mission you have entrusted to me. Amen.

Miracles of Apostles

A lame man healed by St. Peter- Jerusalem.

 

(Acts 3:1 [Net])
Now Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time for prayer, at three o’clock in the afternoon.

(Acts 3:2 [Net])
And a man lame from birth was being carried up, who was placed at the temple gate called “the Beautiful Gate” every day so he could beg for money from those going into the temple courts.

(Acts 3:3 [Net])
When he saw Peter and John about to go into the temple courts, he asked them for money.

(Acts 3:4 [Net])
Peter looked directly at him (as did John) and said, “Look at us!”

(Acts 3:5 [Net])
So the lame man paid attention to them, expecting to receive something from them.

(Acts 3:6 [Net])
But Peter said, “I have no silver or gold, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, stand up and walk!”

(Acts 3:7 [Net])
Then Peter took hold of him by the right hand and raised him up, and at once the man’s feet and ankles were made strong.

(Acts 3:8 [Net])
He jumped up, stood and began walking around, and he entered the temple courts with them, walking and leaping and praising God.

(Acts 3:9 [Net])
All the people saw him walking and praising God,

(Acts 3:10 [Net])
and they recognized him as the man who used to sit and ask for donations at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they were filled with astonishment and amazement at what had happened to him.

 Death of Ananias and Sapphira- Jerusalem.

 (Acts 5:1 [Net])
Now a man named Ananias, together with Sapphira his wife, sold a piece of property.

(Acts 5:2 [Net])
He kept back for himself part of the proceeds with his wife’s knowledge; he brought only part of it and placed it at the apostles’ feet.

(Acts 5:3 [Net])
But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back for yourself part of the proceeds from the sale of the land?

(Acts 5:4 [Net])
Before it was sold, did it not belong to you? And when it was sold, was the money not at your disposal? How have you thought up this deed in your heart? You have not lied to people but to God!”

(Acts 5:5 [Net])
When Ananias heard these words he collapsed and died, and great fear gripped all who heard about it.

(Acts 5:6 [Net])
So the young men came, wrapped him up, carried him out, and buried him.

(Acts 5:7 [Net])
After an interval of about three hours, his wife came in, but she did not know what had happened.

(Acts 5:8 [Net])
Peter said to her, “Tell me, were the two of you paid this amount for the land?” Sapphira said, “Yes, that much.”

(Acts 5:9 [Net])
Peter then told her, “Why have you agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Look! The feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out!”

(Acts 5:10 [Net])
At once she collapsed at his feet and died. So when the young men came in, they found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her beside her husband.

(Acts 5:11 [Net])
Great fear gripped the whole church and all who heard about these things.

St. Peter and St. John impart the Holy Ghost- Samaria.

 

(Acts 8:9 [Net])
Now in that city was a man named Simon, who had been practicing magic and amazing the people of Samaria, claiming to be someone great.

(Acts 8:10 [Net])
All the people, from the least to the greatest, paid close attention to him, saying, “This man is the power of God that is called ‘Great.’”

(Acts 8:11 [Net])
And they paid close attention to him because he had amazed them for a long time with his magic.

(Acts 8:12 [Net])
But when they believed Philip as he was proclaiming the good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they began to be baptized, both men and women.

(Acts 8:13 [Net])
Even Simon himself believed, and after he was baptized, he stayed close to Philip constantly, and when he saw the signs and great miracles that were occurring, he was amazed.

(Acts 8:14 [Net])
Now when the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them.

(Acts 8:15 [Net])
These two went down and prayed for them so that they would receive the Holy Spirit.

(Acts 8:16 [Net])
(For the Spirit had not yet come upon any of them, but they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)

(Acts 8:17 [Net])
Then Peter and John placed their hands on the Samaritans, and they received the Holy Spirit.
Tabitha or Dorcas liaised from the dead by St. Peter- Lydda.

 

(Acts 9:36 [Net])
Now in Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha (which in translation means Dorcas). She was continually doing good deeds and acts of charity.

(Acts 9:37 [Net])
At that time she became sick and died. When they had washed her body, they placed it in an upstairs room.

(Acts 9:38 [Net])
Because Lydda was near Joppa, when the disciples heard that Peter was there, they sent two men to him and urged him, “Come to us without delay.”

(Acts 9:39 [Net])
So Peter got up and went with them, and when he arrived they brought him to the upper room. All the widows stood beside him, crying and showing him the tunics and other clothing Dorcas used to make while she was with them.

(Acts 9:40 [Net])
But Peter sent them all outside, knelt down, and prayed. Turning to the body, he said, “Tabitha, get up.” Then she opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up.

(Acts 9:41 [Net])
He gave her his hand and helped her get up. Then he called the saints and widows and presented her alive.

(Acts 9:42 [Net])
This became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.

St. Peter rescued from prison by an angel- Jerusalem.

 

(Acts 12:6 [Net])
On that very night before Herod was going to bring him out for trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, while guards in front of the door were keeping watch over the prison.

(Acts 12:7 [Net])
Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared, and a light shone in the prison cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up, saying, “Get up quickly!” And the chains fell off Peter’s wrists.

(Acts 12:8 [Net])
The angel said to him, “Fasten your belt and put on your sandals.” Peter did so. Then the angel said to him, “Put on your cloak and follow me.”

(Acts 12:9 [Net])
Peter went out and followed him; he did not realize that what was happening through the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision.

(Acts 12:10 [Net])
After they had passed the first and second guards, they came to the iron gate leading into the city. It opened for them by itself, and they went outside and walked down one narrow street, when at once the angel left him.

(Acts 12:11 [Net])
When Peter came to himself, he said, “Now I know for certain that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from everything the Jewish people were expecting to happen.”

Elymas the sorcerer is stricken with blindness- Jerusalem.

 

(Acts 13:6 [Net])
When they had crossed over the whole island as far as Paphos, they found a magician, a Jewish false prophet named Bar-Jesus,

(Acts 13:7 [Net])
who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man. The proconsul summoned Barnabas and Saul and wanted to hear the word of God.

(Acts 13:8 [Net])
But the magician Elymas (for that is the way his name is translated) opposed them, trying to turn the proconsul away from the faith.

(Acts 13:9 [Net])
But Saul (also known as Paul), filled with the Holy Spirit, stared straight at him

(Acts 13:10 [Net])
and said, “You who are full of all deceit and all wrongdoing, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness – will you not stop making crooked the straight paths of the Lord?

(Acts 13:11 [Net])
Now look, the hand of the Lord is against you, and you will be blind, unable to see the sun for a time!” Immediately mistiness and darkness came over him, and he went around seeking people to lead him by the hand.

(Acts 13:12 [Net])
Then when the proconsul saw what had happened, he believed, because he was greatly astounded at the teaching about the Lord.

A cripple healed by St. Paul- Lystra.

 

(Acts 14:8 [Net])
In Lystra sat a man who could not use his feet, lame from birth, who had never walked.

(Acts 14:9 [Net])
This man was listening to Paul as he was speaking. When Paul stared intently at him and saw he had faith to be healed,

(Acts 14:10 [Net])
he said with a loud voice, “Stand upright on your feet.” And the man leaped up and began walking.

Spirit of divination ejected by St. Paul- Philippi.

 

(Acts 16:16 [Net])
Now as we were going to the place of prayer, a slave girl met us who had a spirit that enabled her to foretell the future by supernatural means. She brought her owners a great profit by fortune-telling.

(Acts 16:17 [Net])
She followed behind Paul and us and kept crying out, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who are proclaiming to you the way of salvation.”

(Acts 16:18 [Net])
She continued to do this for many days. But Paul became greatly annoyed, and turned and said to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her!” And it came out of her at once.

(Acts 16:19 [Net])
But when her owners saw their hope of profit was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace before the authorities.

Doors of the prison of St. Paul and Silas opened by the earthquake- Philippi.

 

(Acts 16:25 [Net])
About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the rest of the prisoners were listening to them.

(Acts 16:26 [Net])
Suddenly a great earthquake occurred, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken. Immediately all the doors flew open, and the bonds of all the prisoners came loose.

St. Paul imparts the Holy Ghost- Corinth.

 

 (Acts 19:1 [Net])
While Apollos was in Corinth, Paul went through the inland regions and came to Ephesus. He found some disciples there

(Acts 19:2 [Net])
and said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” They replied, “No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”

(Acts 19:3 [Net])
So Paul said, “Into what then were you baptized?” “Into John’s baptism,” they replied.

(Acts 19:4 [Net])
Paul said, “John baptized with a baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him, that is, in Jesus.”

(Acts 19:5 [Net])
When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus,

(Acts 19:6 [Net])
and when Paul placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they began to speak in tongues and to prophesy.

  Many persons healed by St. Paul- Corinth.

 

(Acts 19:11 [Net])
God was performing extraordinary miracles by Paul’s hands,

(Acts 19:12 [Net])
so that when even handkerchiefs or aprons that had touched his body were brought to the sick, their diseases left them and the evil spirits went out of them.
St. Paul raises Eutychus from the dead- Troas.

 

(Acts 20:7 [Net])
On the first day of the week, when we met to break bread, Paul began to speak to the people, and because he intended to leave the next day, he extended his message until midnight.

(Acts 20:8 [Net])
(Now there were many lamps in the upstairs room where we were meeting.)

(Acts 20:9 [Net])
A young man named Eutychus, who was sitting in the window, was sinking into a deep sleep while Paul continued to speak for a long time. Fast asleep, he fell down from the third story and was picked up dead.

(Acts 20:10 [Net])
But Paul went down, threw himself on the young man, put his arms around him, and said, “Do not be distressed, for he is still alive!”

(Acts 20:11 [Net])
Then Paul went back upstairs, and after he had broken bread and eaten, he talked with them a long time, until dawn. Then he left.

(Acts 20:12 [Net])
They took the boy home alive and were greatly comforted.

St. Paul renders a viper harmless- Melita.

 

(Acts 28:1 [Net])
After we had safely reached shore, we learned that the island was called Malta.

(Acts 28:2 [Net])
The local inhabitants showed us extraordinary kindness, for they built a fire and welcomed us all because it had started to rain and was cold.

(Acts 28:3 [Net])
When Paul had gathered a bundle of brushwood and was putting it on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat and fastened itself on his hand.

(Acts 28:4 [Net])
When the local people saw the creature hanging from Paul’s hand, they said to one another, “No doubt this man is a murderer! Although he has escaped from the sea, Justice herself has not allowed him to live!”

(Acts 28:5 [Net])
However, Paul shook the creature off into the fire and suffered no harm.

(Acts 28:6 [Net])But they were expecting that he was going to swell up or suddenly drop dead. So after they had waited a long time and had seen nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and said he was a god.

The Most Powerful Prayers in the Universe

Paul The Apostle didn't pray BAND-AID prayers. His were not EMERGENCY prayers, only scratching the SURFACE. His prayers were not aimed at merely putting out the brush fires in people's lives. His prayers went beyond their visible struggles and got to ROOTS, to the invisible part of them where real change and spiritual transformation was needed. He knew, that if he prayed these Holy Spirit inspired prayers instead of focusing on the outward circumstances, that Bible results were surely guaranteed. The outward problems would naturally disappear if the needs of the inner man were met.

And God thought so highly of these prayers that He had them recorded and canonized into the Bible for us to pray over ourselves, our family members, our friends, and churches.

For Best Results: Pray these prayers aloud to God and repeatedly for many days by inserting the name of the person in the blanks. Prepare for astounding results! God is bound by His own Word to answer the prayers written in His Word! As you pray these prayers, often you will feel the Holy Spirit "jump in" with you. When this happens, you should feel free to pray additional thoughts that the Spirit gives you to pray for that person. You can even intermingle praying in tongues with these prayers. (As a matter of fact, these prayers are probably Paul's interpretations of the prayers he prayed in tongues for these people.) Allow these prayers to be a launching pad of your intercession for others and even for yourself.

Want to know a secret? I have discovered that as I pray these prayers for other people, allowing my heart to pray fervently, I myself experience an incredible byproduct. Reams of revelation flood my own soul and the Spirit makes His presence real to me! Remember... when Job prayed for his friends, God turned around Job's own situation!

Below are the most powerful prayers in the universe. I have taken the liberty to convert them to fill in the blank for your praying convenience. I had to take a little extra paraphrase liberty on only really one of them: The first part of Acts Chapter Four (to make it applicable to our modern culture). Otherwise you will find these prayers almost exactly word for word from the scripture except for the "fill in the blanks."

Ten Commandments

Deut 11:26 Take note – I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse:

Deut 11:27 the blessing if you take to heart the commandments of the LORD your God that I am giving you today,
Deut 11:28 and the curse if you pay no attention to his commandments and turn from the way I am setting before you today to pursue other gods you have not known.
 
I am the Lord your God; you shall not have strange gods before me.

 

Exod 20:1 God spoke all these words:

Exod 20:2 “I, the LORD, am your God, who brought you from the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery.
Exod 20:3 “You shall have no other gods before me.
Exod 20:4 “You shall not make for yourself a carved image or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above or that is on the earth beneath or that is in the water below.
Exod 20:5 You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I, the LORD, your God, am a jealous God, responding to the transgression of fathers by dealing with children to the third and fourth generations of those who reject me,
Exod 20:6 and showing covenant faithfulness to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.

You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain.

Exod 20:7 “You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not hold guiltless anyone who takes his name in vain.

Matt 5:34 But I say to you, do not take oaths at all – not by heaven, because it is the throne of God,
Matt 5:35 not by earth, because it is his footstool, and not by Jerusalem, because it is the city of the great King.
Matt 5:36 Do not take an oath by your head, because you are not able to make one hair white or black.
Matt 5:37 Let your word be ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no.’ More than this is from the evil one.
 

 Remember to keep holy the Lord's day

 

Exod 20:8 “Remember the Sabbath day to set it apart as holy.

Exod 20:9 For six days you may labor and do all your work,
Exod 20:10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God; on it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, or your male servant, or your female servant, or your cattle, or the resident foreigner who is in your gates.
Exod 20:11 For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth and the sea and all that is in them, and he rested on the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart as holy.

 Honor your father and your mother.

 

Deut 5:16 Honor your father and your mother just as the LORD your God has commanded you to do, so that your days may be extended and that it may go well with you in the land that he is about to give you.

Eph 6:1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord for this is right.
Eph 6:2 “Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment accompanied by a promise, namely,
Eph 6:3 “that it may go well with you and that you will live a long time on the earth.”

You shall not kill.

 

Matt 5:21 “You have heard that it was said to an older generation, ‘Do not murder,’ and ‘whoever murders will be subjected to judgment.’
Matt 5:22 But I say to you that anyone who is angry with a brother will be subjected to judgment. And whoever insults a brother will be brought before the council, and whoever says ‘Fool’ will be sent to fiery hell.
Matt 5:23 So then, if you bring your gift to the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,
Matt 5:24 leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother and then come and present your gift.
Matt 5:25 Reach agreement quickly with your accuser while on the way to court, or he may hand you over to the judge, and the judge hand you over to the warden, and you will be thrown into prison.
Matt 5:26 I tell you the truth, you will never get out of there until you have paid the last penny!

You shall not commit adultery.

 

Matt 5:27 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Do not commit adultery.’
Matt 5:28 But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to desire her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
Matt 5:29 If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away! It is better to lose one of your members than to have your whole body thrown into hell.
Matt 5:30 If your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away! It is better to lose one of your members than to have your whole body go into hell.
Matt 5:31 “It was said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife must give her a legal document.’
Matt 5:32 But I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except for immorality, makes her commit adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
 

 You shall not steal
