"Let us hope to fully understand...
Repentance is the activity of reviewing one's actions and feeling contrition or regret
for past wrongs, which is accompanied by commitment to change for the better.
Today, it is generally seen as involving a commitment to personal change and the
resolve to live a more responsible and humane life. In other words, being sorry for one's misdeeds.
A promise or resolve not to repeat the offense; ; an attempt
to make restitution for the wrong, or in some way to reverse the harmful effects
of the wrong where possible...A Renewing of one's overall behavior for a better quality of life."
'Praise God'

'Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.'

Anti-social behaviour is any activity that impacts on other people in a negative way, and the key to categorising behaviour as anti-social must be consideration of its impact on others.

Anti-social behaviour - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-social_behaviour
(April 2013) Anti-social behaviours are actions that harm or lack consideration for the well-being of others. It has also been defined as any type of conduct that violates the basic rights of another person and any behaviour that is considered to be disruptive to others in society.

Antisocial behavior is not being withdraw or minding ones own business. It is being a menace. Being humble or contrite is usually a good thing and comes through spiritual growth.(Bob.)

'Know this, and know it well. Anything under the sun, whatsover, that
of any act or form displayed which dilutes or pollutes the Spirit of God,
by attitude or behavior to make Christianity more compatible with intellectual
'thinking' for self knowledge or self acclaim to attract attention...shall be considered
an attribute of contempt...and in violation of God's spiritual nature."

Carrying the message; Before Jesus returned to the Father. He commissioned us to carry the message. “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (Matt 28: vs 19 & 20)

Isn't it refreshing, he will always be with us. Note; he didn't say, 'will you please' but he chose us to be ambassador for him! Also note the bible wasn't written to the disciples but by them to us. Not only does he love us he trusts us to carry on in his stead and promises to stay with us through it all till the bitter/sweet end. What a vow, from the Lord himself! Truly we are blessed.

"Our physical eyes look out and away from us. Our spiritual eyes look in and toward
Christ in us. Our spiritual eyes discern the flesh at work in us. Our spiritual eyes
look toward who we are or can be in Christ. Seeing the spiritual in the midst of the
physical involves responding to the Holy Spirit...that works to improve our spiritual
vision and spiritual hearing...to help us let Christ live through us by helping us
discern the spiritual goings on in our lives, while at the same time living in the
physical world. Discerning the Spiritual in Midst of the Physical Requires Connecting
Biblical Concepts to Real-Life."
"Jesus Himself is represented by one of God's Keys to understanding life. Jesus'
message describes and demonstrates how important it is to be able to interact with
the invisible, spiritual world. Jesus' message also speaks to how important it is to
be able to discern spiritual dynamics that affect us as they unfold and occur in the
midst of real world situations and external circumstances."
.........................................................................................
"The Bible must be read carefully, with appropriate attention paid to each detail of
the context, because God has a purpose for what is said, who says it, where it is
said, when it is said, how it is said, to whom it is said and why it is said. Logic
demands that words and verses must not be wrested out of context and made to
mean something foreign to the original meaning of the text."
..........................................................................................
"Let us pray to understand, our physical eyes look out and away from us...
and our spiritual eyes look in and toward Christ in us. Our spiritual eyes
discern the flesh at work in us. Let us pray to understand, our spiritual
eyes look toward who we are or can be in Christ. Seeing the spiritual in
the midst of the physical involves responding to the Holy Spirit...within us."
'Amen'
'Praise God'

"Religious doctrines, dogmas, ideologies, philosophies, world-models, value systems, ethics,
moralities, and all the like, will stand or fall depending on the kinds of answers that are
revealed to the collective mind of mankind. It all comes together in the mind of each
individual, and becomes his reality, and to that extent only... Each is unique."

"Rather, the (Father's) kingdom is within you and it is outside you. When you know
yourselves, then you will be known, and you will understand that you are children of the
living Father. But if you do not know yourselves, then you live in poverty, and you are the poverty."

Today I will be free.
Today I will follow the plan left before me.
Today I will strive for the goal set for me.
If I do not reach the goal today, the point is that I made the effort.

"Let us be reminded...A flexible attitude prevents assumptions from clouding your judgment.
A rigid personality hinders spiritual growth, a serious problem with
grave consequences...and stubbornness doubles the liability."
