    I was very confused about my Cultrure being that my daddy came straight from Montserrat and my mom is from Jamaica with German descent. Nobody wanted to answer my questions about where i come from on my mothers side, so i decided to learn more about my dads island. I'm so proud to have half of Montserrat blood running through my veins. Its so unique Idk if it makes sense but From these videos i feel like I can now embrace my hazel eyes and light skin color knowing half of where i come from!

    St Patrick was a Briton, not Welsh. Wales didn't exist as an entity and it's still disputed as to where in the West of Britain he came from.
    Furthermore he wasn't "chased over to Ireland". He was kidnapped by Irish slave traders. The Irish were big into invading Western Britain and taking slaves back then. He was enslaved as a swineherd and escaped back to Britain. He became Christian and went back to Ireland to convert the pagan irish. He was partially successful. czcams.com/video/VUEbVIRdhDo/video.html

    Yeshua Ha Massiach (Jesus The Messiah). Who is He?
    " For unto us a Child is born. Unto us a Son is given, and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. " Isaiah 9 : 6
    Acts Chapter 4 verse 12: " There is no salvation through anyone else, nor is there any other name under heaven given to the human race by which we are to be saved."
    Born of a virgin, Mary.
    Matthew Chapter 1 verse 20: " behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to him (Joseph), in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for that (Christ)which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
    Jesus, the Christ, is God's word made flesh. Jesus is Jehovah God's (The Creator's) Word made into flesh.
    1 John chapter 5 verse 7: " For there are three that bear a record in heaven, The Father, The Word, and the Holy Spirit: and these three are one."
    John chapter 1 verse 1: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
    John chapter 1 verse 14: " And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth."
    John chapter 1 verse 10: " He was in the world, and the world knew Him not."
    Hebrews chapter 4 verse 12: " For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."
    How beautiful and awesome is God's Word, who is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, magnificent in all His glory, is He.Amen!
    John's Vision Of Christ Seated On His Throne In Heaven:
    Revelation chapter 4 verse 2 to 3: " Immediately, I (John), was in the Spirit, and behold a throne sat in Heaven, and One sat on the throne. And He who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance, and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald."
    Why did Christ Jesus came and sacrificed His precious life for sinners like us?
    Christ (God's Word made into flesh), came because through flesh (Adam's flesh) sin entered the world, and then because of sin death entered the whole earth. Through flesh(Jesus Christ's flesh), the earth will be saved, sin is destroyed, and the curse of death shall be broken, death and the grave shall be cast into hell.
    Christ, who is God's Word made into flesh, sacrificed His life for us. He was crucified for our sins and transgressions.
    Christ died, and on the third day He resurrected in the flesh, conquering death and the grave. Now, Christ is seated in Heaven, at the right hand of Power(God). Through Christ's sacrifice we gain Salvation through God's abundant mercy and grace. We are reconciled and recompensed back to God, through the shed blood of His beloved Son Christ Jesus.
    John chapter 3 verse 16: " For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that who ever believes in Him, shall not perish, but have everlasting life."
    Romans chapter 5 verse 8: " But God demonstrates His love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
    Christ came to undo the sin and eternal death brought upon the world through the sin of Adam.
    Death in Adam, Life In Christ:
    Romans chapter 5 verse 19: " For as by one man's disobedience(Adam), many were made sinners, so also by one Man's (Jesus)obedience, many will be made righteous."
    Romans chapter 5 verse 18: " Therefore, as through one man's (Adam's) offense judgement came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even through one Man's (Christ's) righteous act, the free gift came to all men, resulting in the justification of life."
    Romans chapter 5 verse 17: " For if by the one man's offense(Adam's offense), death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in the life through the One(Jesus Christ).
    Romans chapter 5 verse 12: " Therefore, just as through one man (Adam)sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned."
    Romans chapter 5 verse 21: " "So that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
    Do you now see that through Adam, sin and death entered the world, so that is why Christ Jesus came to give life, and give it more abundantly? Yes Christ came to give eternal life through Salvation.
    Adam's flesh brought sin, death, destruction, and condemnation.
    1 Corinthians 15 : 21-22, "For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ, all shall be made alive."
    Christ's sacrifice, the crucifixtion of His flesh, brings reconciliation of sins, life, resurrection, eternal life, salvation
    Christ is coming back again, not as a sacrificial lamb. He is coming back as a roaring, waring lion, to destroy sin, death, and the grave once and for all. Amen! Halleluyah!
    Revelation chapter 22 verse 12 to 13: " And behold, I come quickly, and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. "
    Now do you see friends, Why Christ Jesus is so so Important for our Salvation? Yes.
    Now, do you understand why there is only one way to God, and that is only through Christ Jesus,only? Yes.
    Christ is Salvation. Christ is our Lord and Saviour. Christ is the only way to God. Christ is the only Mediator between God and men(us humans).
    God loves us so much, He does not want anyone to perish in hell. God wants all sinners to be saved. That is why He sent His Word to save the world. God's Word became flesh, and dwelt among us to save us.
    Will you accept Christ and be saved?
    Romans chapter 6 verse 23: " For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
    John Chapter 3 verse 16: " For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that who ever believes in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life."
    Salvation is free!
    Christ already paid the price, all you have to do is recieve salvation through acceptance of Jesus Christ, Yeshua Ha Massiach.
    So who is Christ?
    He is The Word Of God. He is the Son of God. He is God. He is the image of the unseen God. He is the Alpha and Omega. He is the beginning and the end. He is the Great I Am. He is Emmanuel. He is The Christ. He is The Messiah. He is The Creator. He is our Lord and Saviour. He is our Mediator. He is the Lion and the Lamb. He is Salvation. He is the way, the truth, and life.
    Amen!
    I love you Lord!
    God created the heavens and the earth with His spoken Word. Did you know that Jesus is that Word, through which all things were created? Yes.
    John chapter 14 verse 6: " Jesus said to him," I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
    Colassians chapter 1 verse 15 to 16:
    He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him."
    John chapter 1 verse 1 to 4:
    In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men."
    I hope that you know Christ, and understand Christ better now,to the glory of God. Amen!
    Christ is for all who will receive Him. Please pray this prayer with me.
    Lord Jesus, thank You for dying for me. Please come into my heart. I accept You as my Lord and Savor. You are the Son of God. You are the Word of God. You are God. You are The Great I Am, the One who Was, who Is, and who Is To Come. I believe that You sacrificed Your life for me and died, and on the third day, You awoke, and raised up Your body in the flesh. I believe You are coming back in the flesh (in Your resurrected body). I believe Salvation is only through You. Forgive me Lord of my sins. I renounce and repent of all my sins, past and present, this day. I will sin no more, with Your help dear Lord, now and forever more. Please Lord: keep me in Your bossom. Heal me Oh Lord, help me. Be near me, and never let me go. Write my name in Your Book of Life. Prepare a place for me in Your Father's House. Please hear my prayer dear God, in Jesus mighty name, I pray. Amen!
    May the Lord continue to be with you and strengthen you through any difficult journeys ahead.
    ***This is how our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, said we should pray.Matthew chapter 6 verse 9 to 13:
    "Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name, Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen." ***
    Now that you understand who Christ is, share Christ with others. Amen!
    Repent of your sins. Sin No More!
    Be baptized in Jesus Name.
    Submit to Jehovah-God.
    Love God with all your heart, mind, body, soul, and spirit.
    Keep God's Commandments.
    Love one another.
    Forgive one another.
    It is written, "resist the devil, submit to God, and the devil will flee from you."
    Hate sin with all your heart, mind, body, soul, and spirit.
    Spread the Gospel.
    Acts 11 vs. 15 to 16, " And as I began to speak, The Holy Spirit fell upon them, as upon us at the beginning. Then I remembered the word of the Lord, how He said, "John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit."
    Everybody go and speak the gospel with somebody today.
