Ridgewood church lends a hand(world mission society church of god)
Members of a Ridgewood church put their faith into practice this weekend — one shovelful of muck at a time — by helping Pompton Lakes residents clean up their flood-damaged homes.
More than 100 members of the Ridgewood congregation of the World Mission Society Church of God helped shovel out debris, knock down a damaged wall and bag trash removed from the basements of several homes along Washington Avenue on Monday.
Members of a Ridgewood church put their faith into practice this weekend — one shovelful of muck at a time — by helping Pompton Lakes residents clean up their flood-damaged homes.
More than 100 members of the Ridgewood congregation of the World Mission Society Church of God helped shovel out debris, knock down a damaged wall and bag trash removed from the basements of several homes along Washington Avenue on Monday.
For residents such as Satinder Bharaj, the group's arrival was a blessing.
At the height of the flooding caused by Hurricane Irene, water poured in from the front and back of the home where Bharaj and her husband, Balbir, have lived for the last eight years.
They were among the families evacuated from the area. Their son arranged for them to stay at a hotel in Parsippany. They were able to return home Saturday to inspect the damage.
"Everything is damaged," Bharaj said. "Nothing could be saved."
Her husband's injured knee complicated matters until a group of the church volunteers, whose members come from all over Bergen County, showed up to help dig out the debris from the basement.
"They are very polite and very helpful," she said.
Other neighbors who didn't need the group's help also were appreciative.
Mireille Greenberg initially invited the group to her house, but after consulting with her husband, Herb, and their son, Peter, declined the help.

♡PASSOVER♡
I attended church since childhood. Bible study was interesting. I had questions, were so. One day, I asked about problems of the soul to the pastor . He did not know. I was shocked. Teach what he do not know ...after the day, I am not sure my salvation, and faith could not do. But...
When Christians are asked, “Have you received salvation?” they reply, “Yes,” but if they are asked, “Do you celebrate the Passover?” most of them will hesitate in answering. Actually, no one can be said to be “saved” without knowing about the Passover.
The Church of God is the only church in the world that celebrates the Passover of the new covenant on the fourteenth day of the first month by sacred year as was written in the Bible (Lev. 23:4). The Church of God can celebrate the Passover because the Second Coming Christ, Ahnsahnghong, has restored the Passover that Jesus established two thousand years ago.
The Passover is one of the most important feasts that God has granted because God promised to give us the forgiveness of our sins and eternal life through the Passover.
Also, by celebrating the Passover, we can escape from all disasters. Even in the Old Testament times, there was a marked difference between the people who celebrated the Passover and the people who did not. Those who did not celebrate the Passover were always destroyed.
In other words, if we do not celebrate the Passover, we cannot have the forgiveness of our sins or eternal life, nor can we be saved from the last disasters. The Church of God, that believes in the prophecies of the Bible, celebrates the Passover the truth of the Early Church, following the teachings of Christ Ahnsahnghong.

♡THE SEAL OF GOD IS NOT THE PASSOVER BUT THE HOLY SPIRIT-WMSCOG
When we read books, we read it to end from first.
We don't read just any sentence. Like this when we read the bible, we must read to end from first.But splanders always insist through just a part of sentences. this is fabulous.

Some people insist that the seal of God in Revelation Chapter 7 does not represent the Passover and they also argue that the seal of God is not the Passover but the Holy Spirit, quoting the verses as follow,
- 2 Cor. 1:21「Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, set his seal of ownership on us, and put his Sprit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.」
- Eph. 1:13「And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit,」
In any ages, God put His seal whenever He thinks is right.
This is why bible tells that there are not only seal of apostleship(1 Cor. 9:2) and the seal of righteousness(Rom 4:11) but the Holy Spirit has been put in our heart as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come. (2 Cor. 1:22, Eph. 1:13)
- 1 Cor. 9:2「Even though I may not be an apostle to others, surely I am to you! For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.」
- Rom 4:11「And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while he was still circumcised.」
However, “the Seal of God” in Revelation Chapter 7 is the one to be put on God’s people right before the last disaster would come upon them. This is very the sign of salvation to enter the kingdom of Heaven by escaping from last disasters.
All destructive plagues had passed over for those who had painted the blood of lambs on the sides and tops of doorframes of the houses in Egypt. In the same way, only through the blood of Christ who is the reality of Passover lamb, we could get the salvation in the last judgment.
