Network of Glory
Our Mission Statement
Network of Glory is committed to obeying the Holy Bible and continuing the mission of Christ Jesus by inviting ALL people to love, obey, and honor the LORD God while seeking the Kingdom of God FIRST (see e.g., Exodus 20:3; Deuteronomy 6:4-6; Deuteronomy 10:12; Proverbs 1:7; Matthew 22:37-38). The LORD God stands as the everlasting King, Judge, and Creator of the universe, having bestowed all authority upon His Son, Christ Jesus (see e.g., Genesis 1:1; Deuteronomy 4:39; 2 Chronicles 20:6; Daniel 4:17, 34-37; Matthew 28:18-20; John 1:1-3). The love and care of the LORD God and His Son Jesus for us is profound and eternal, as God embodies eternal love (see e.g., John 3:16; John 13:1; Romans 8:35-39; 1 John 4:8).
In addition, the Network of Glory strives for a better world by urging all people to love and care for one another, fostering good in the world rather than evil (see e.g., Jeremiah 25:5-6; Micah 6:6-8; Matthew 22:39-40; John 15:12; Romans 12:9, 21; Romans 13:8-10). Each individual is called to bring glory to the LORD God through our words and good deeds (see e.g., Isaiah 43:7; Matthew 5:14-16; 1 Corinthians 10:31; Colossians 3:17).
Praise and worship of the LORD God, accompanied by thanksgiving, is an everlasting requirement for everyone (see e.g., Deuteronomy 10:21; Psalm 57:5; Psalm 100:1-5; Psalm 105:1; Ephesians 5:19-20; Colossians 3:16; Hebrews 13:15; James 5:13).
With unity of mind, heart, and voice, people around the globe are called to glorify and worship the LORD God and His Son, Christ Jesus (see e.g., 1 Chronicles 16:28-29; Psalm 8:9; Romans 15:5-7; 1 Corinthians 10:31; Colossians 3:17). The entire earth is filled with the glory of the LORD God (see e.g., Isaiah 6:3).
Through singing and music, let all honor and praise the LORD (see e.g., Psalm 95:1-7; Psalm 135:1-3; Psalm 145:3; Psalm 150:1-6). All glory and honor are due to the LORD God and His Son Christ Jesus FOREVER (see e.g., Romans 11:36; Ephesians 3:21; Philippians 4:20; 1 Peter 4:11).
Hallelujah!
Who Is God?
The Bible teaches us that the Lord God is 'the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever' (1 Timothy 1:17, NIV). He is omnipotent (all powerful), omnipresent (everywhere), and omniscient (all knowing), as highlighted in Psalm 147:5, Proverbs 15:3, and Genesis 1:1. The Lord God is also described as a 'compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished . . .' (Exodus 34:6-7, NIV).
What God Requires
The Bible teaches us that the LORD has clearly communicated to humanity what is good. He has expressed His desires for us: to act justly towards others, to love kindness, and to walk humbly while obeying our God, as stated in Micah 6:8 (NCV).
There Is Hope and New Life In Jesus
God's Easy Rules
There is a curious passage in the Talmud (the body of Jewish civil and religious law) which states that Moses provided six hundred laws to the ancient Israelites. As these laws or commands proved too numerous to commit to memory, King David summarized them down to eleven in Psalm 15. The prophet Isaiah further condensed these eleven laws to six at Isaiah 33:15. The prophet Micah then reduced the commands to three at Micah 6:8. Following this, the prophet Isaiah again simplified them to two at Isaiah 56:1. Finally, the prophet Amos distilled these two commands into one (Amos 5:4). However, to clarify that God is not found solely in the fulfillment of the Law, the prophet Habakkuk proclaimed, “The just shall live by his faith” (Habakkuk 2:4). This historical interpretation is reflected in William H. Saulez's work, The Romance of the Hebrew Language (originally published in 1913 and reprinted in 2012). In the New Testament, at Matthew 22:34-40, a religious leader inquired of Jesus which commandments are the most significant in the Law of Moses. Jesus responded: “You must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: Love your neighbor as yourself. The entire Law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments.” (Matthew 22:34-40, NLT). An ancient writer, Jerome (A.D. 374-419), recounts the frail and elderly apostle John urging his congregation to “Love one another.” When asked why he emphasized this alone, the apostle John replied, “Because it is the Lord’s command, and if this is done, it is enough” (see John 13:34-35). Jesus stated: "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets." Matthew 7:12 (NIV). He also said: "I give you a new command: Love each other. You must love each other as I have loved you. All people will know that you are My followers if you love each other." John 13:34-35 (NCV). For the entire Law can be encapsulated in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Galatians 5:14 (NLT). What is love? The Apostle Paul teaches that "Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends... So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love." 1 Corinthians 13:4-8, 13 (ESV). The Apostle Paul also instructs: "So brothers and sisters, since God has shown us great mercy, I urge you to offer your lives as a living sacrifice to Him. Your offering must be only for God and pleasing to Him, which is the spiritual way for you to worship. Do not conform to the patterns of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to discern what God wants for you; you will know what is good and acceptable and perfect." Romans 12:1-2 (NCV). God desires everyone to love and obey Him, living righteous lives filled with goodness and kindness towards others (see Matthew 6:33; 2 Peter 1:5-9). The Prophet Micah teaches: "The LORD has told you, human, what is good; He has told you what He wants from you: to do what is right for other people, love kindness, and walk humbly, obeying your God." Micah 6:8 (NCV).
