One time a man who called heaven's

cell phone, and this is the voice mail

that he got, "Thank you for calling

heaven. I am sorry, all our angels and

saints are busy helping other sinners

right now. However, your prayer is

very important to us, and we will

answer it in the order that it was

received. Please stay on the line.

If you would like to speak to God, press 1, for Jesus, press 2, The Holy Spirit, press 3.

If you would like to hear King David sing a

psalm while you are holding, press 4. To find

a loved one who has been assigned to

heaven, press 5, then enter his or her social

security number followed by the pound sign.

If you get a negative response please hang

up and try area code 666.

For reservations in heaven please enter

JOHN 3:16. For answers to nagging

questions about dinosaurs, the age of the

earth, life on other planets or where Noah's

arc is, please wait until you arrive. If you

are calling after hours and need

emergency assistance, please contact

your local pastor.

Finding

true love

Love is important. It can raise people up to the

heights, or send them to the pits. Is there anyone

here who doesn’t want True Love?

Love is the power to unite two beings

into one. You can see

some kind of love or attraction

throughout the universe. (e.g. man and woman,

male and female animals,

protons and electrons, etc.)

Everything exist in complementary pairs from mineral kingdom, animal kingdom, all the way up to human beings. Why is it so?

For the purpose of True Love.

Universe is designed in Complementary Pairs

But All love

is not the

same

There is the love that creates, but there is

that love that can hurt and destroy.

The right environment for the preparation of Marriage

is your pure love

That means…

• Virginity before the Marriage

• Fidelity within the Marriage

• The Marriage is an eternal relationship

Satanic Lies about Sex

• Sex lie #1:

“Sex is a four-letter word”

• Sex lie #2:

“I’m all alone”

• Sex lie #3:

“It will go away when I’m married”

Sex lie #1: “Sex is a four-letter word (Lust)”

• Fornication (sex outside of marriage)

• Carnal (Desire of the body) Resolution:

• Knowledge

• Sex is a mind, body and soul experience

• Sex is the meeting point between God and humans

• The purpose of our lives is to be God’s object of love

Sex lie #2: “I’m all alone”

• Nobody understand me

• Everyone is against me

Resolution:

• God ALWAYS loves me

• I am always with God, and God is always with me

• My parents understand me

• I am never alone

Sex lie #3: “It will go away when I’m married”

Remember:

• Bad habits don’t just disappear. • We hurt ourselves, God and the other person

when we look at someone like a sexual object instead of a child of God.

• It is a choice to continue to be attracted to someone.

• Follow your destiny, not your genes and hormones

Our Challenge!

How to become owners of the Pure Love culture and

expand it!

One Love, One Life

One Man, One Wife

Make It Sure

Keep it Pure

The Pure Love Pledge The pure relationship of love between a man and a woman is a

sacred gift from God,

to be cherished and honored, for the sake of building

a true family, a healthy society and a world of peace for future

Generations. Once that love is consummated,

it should never be broken.

Therefore, from this day forward, I commit myself to:

•Respect and honor the ideal of purity in myself and

others.

•Practice pure love as a child, friend, spouse and parent.

•Refrain from all sexual relationship before marriage.

•Dedicate myself to absolute fidelity within marriage.

•Encourage others to do the same.

GOD BLESS YOU!
