 Jesus is a +an 'or the 8I or) an) not in a oast'ul ay. 9e spea-s o' the rea) in the )esert, the +anna hi&h nourishe) the people in their an)erins. 9e uil)s on their elie' in a rea) 'ro+ hea(en, ut no that he hi+sel' is the rea). The rea) i(es li'e to the soul

$ur Christian 'aith is &entre) on a person, not on a oo-. The ospel is the oo- o' li'e e&ause it is the oo- o' Jesus. Jesus is our li'e e&ause he &o+es 'ro+ Go). So e &all this at ti+es the rea) o' hea(en.

 Tepora, Chrisitian Jay E. BSIT 2A li(es, Go) is (ery near in Jesus. 9e +a-es his ho+e in us as the rea) e eat e&o+es part o' us.

 The sa+e ith lo(e our 'aith lin-s alays hu+an an) )i(ine lo(e, an) hu+an lo(e o' all sorts is a share in the )i(ine li'e o' lo(e.
