What is WRONG
with those churches who refuse to do ASH WEDNESDAY Services . . . simply because civil authorities SUGGEST that Christians NOT do an ASH WEDNESDAY service because of the COVID risk ?
Worthy is the LAMB+... worthy is the LAMB+... worthy is the LAMB+ that was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and blessing! Blessing and honor and glory and power be unto HIM that sitteth on the throne and unto The LAMB+ for ever and ever. Amen.

Does the BIBLE DIRECTLY tell us WHO owns our body and spirit ?
YES, but ONLY
IF our BIBLE follows the Byzantine Greek mss.
UNFORTUNATELY, we have more than 61 modern English Bibles which DO NOT TELL US directly “who” owns our Body and Spirit.
Let us hear the WORD of GOD IN 1 Corinthians 6: 19 - 20.
What ? know ye not . . .
that your body is the temple of the HOLY SPIRIT Which is in you, Which ye have of GOD, and ye are not your own?
For ye are bought with a price:
therefore glorify GOD in your body,
and in your spirit, Which are GOD’S.
1 Corinthians 6:19-20
+ + +
In 1 Corinthians 6:20 , hundreds of Byzantine manuscripts speak with one voice, telling us WHO owns both our body and our spirit.
. . . and in your spirit, Which are GOD’S.
But of the 61 English version Bibles listed on Bible Gateway’s website
only 12 included the last seven words.
The SEASON of the anti-Christ
No-one following JESUS CHRIST is confused about this current season: THE SEASON OF THE ANTI-CHRIST.
Even the worldlings know something terribly evil is afoot. FEAR is everywhere, from academics to business to health facilities.
Align yourself with My+ PURPOSES.
Why was HE+ born ?
The LORD JESUS CHRIST was born to deliver us and bring many sons to Glory !
ZACHARIAS and ELISABETH
Three persons received the HOLY SPIRIT just before The LORD came:
They NEEDED the HOLY SPIRIT, for times were evil.
And she brought forth her FIRSTBORN SON+,
and wrapped HIM+ in swaddling clothes, and laid HIM+ in a manger;
because there was no room for them in the inn.

Colossians 1:15
Who+ is the image of the invisible GOD,
THE FIRSTBORN of every creature:
[ literal Greek: begotten before all of creation ] *

EXACTLY Who is this FIRSTBORN Son of the Hebrew virgin Mariam ?
Luke 2:7
And she brought forth her FIRSTBORN SON+,
and wrapped HIM+ in swaddling clothes,and laid HIM+ in a manger;
because there was no room for them in the inn.

Colossians 1:15
Who+ is the image of the invisible GOD,

Behold the handmaid of The LORD;
be it unto me
according to Thy Word.
And the angel departed from her.

Joseph and Joseph , the fruitful boughs of a Tree, bore good fruit in their lives because of OBEDIENCE. Mary tells Joseph.
Myrrh, the bitter herb, is from the same Hebrew root as "Mary" or "Maryam" or "Mariam" . The root of this Hebrew word , of course, means BITTER.
