Comments by Joan Boney:
After I was born again on August 5, 1975, I had a strong desire to read the Bible and to structure my life by that which God said in the New Testament Bible. I would read the Bible to see what I should do in this life. And I often found scripture which showed me what to do.
The rule book for the New Testament Church is the New Testament Bible.
By the scriptures in the New Testament Bible we see how we should treat other people.
Life is no longer just about ourselves, but also about our family, friends, neighbors and even about strangers.
Do we really care about other people? About those people who can't repay us?
Are those poor people important in our minds? Are we interested in their well being on this earth?
Luke 6:32 For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.
And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.
34 And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.
35 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.
36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
Do we pray for those who seek to take vengeance on others thinking vengeance is good and have no idea how evil their actions really are?
Or do we scorn and hate them?
Don't we want to build our house on the Word of God?
1 Timothy 2
I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
6 WHO gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

In the days of Jonah, God spared Ninevah because God said the people of Nineval didn't know their right hand from their left.
Today people in high places are very proud. Often they think themselves to be very wise and have no idea what they "preach" is evil.
God is saying to us, Pray for your rulers and those that be in charge, that you will be able to live in peace.
Jonah 4 (God said to Jonah)
10 Then said the LORD, Thou hast had pity on the gourd, for the which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night:
11 And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more than sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand; and also much cattle?
