Listen, World of Mortals…
GOD SPEAKS!
The age of the horse and buggy is no more, and yet people pine
and yearn for that bygone era. Life was slower. Or was it an
illusion too. Life was laidback in the rural areas. There was
excitement and life it seemed in the urban areas, or the cities of
every generation and age. More so in our day and time. The
computer information age.
And people all the time yearn with nostalgia about the good old
days!

Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII - PREFACE ‘’YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE
ABUNDANT LIFE’’
All of these happened in the last 600 years. How swift events
and ages have come. And now intermingle and interplay with
one another.
Has there ever been a time like this in mankind’s 6000 years of
recorded history?
What has happened to the bedrock on which the foundation of
life on earth was founded?
Where has all the premier parts that comprised that bedrock
gone?
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII - PREFACE ‘’YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE
ABUNDANT LIFE’’
Remember:
We remain fundamentally the same. In need of food. And
shelter. Of clothing. Of space and time to truly be alive and live
and breathe in the open air.
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII - PREFACE ‘’YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE
ABUNDANT LIFE’’
Ask those who had ascended Mount Everest after it was all over,
were they more immortal afterwards?
Ask the astronauts who finally stepped on the moon and got
back. Were they still human when it was done?
Ask those whose pockets and bank accounts were lined with
innumerable dollar notes and 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 figures and
rising. Were they better than most? Were they more healthy
and impervious to common cold? How many heart by-pass
have they had?
Ask those whose private libraries and dugouts are lined with
multiple trophies galore. Were they now immortals?
Ask those who walk the streets of London every so many weeks
or months with their shining medals they have been awarded
for their deeds of valor in wars gone by when the British Empire
was at its zenith. Were they heroes in their own eyes really?
Or have they grown weary and really tired of it all?
Ask the celebrities and men of fame, fortune, and distinction
after they sit by themselves when it was all over. Have these
idols and icons found true happiness after so many divorces
and broken families left tattered behind? Were they on drugs
and booze after all?
Ask them who have done this. Done that. Were there. Gone up.
Gone down.
Ask all the men and women who have done them when it was all
over and they are by themselves. Retired, worn and used, and
feeling the onset of mortality with arthritis and faulty heartbeats.
19
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII - PREFACE ‘’YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE
ABUNDANT LIFE’’
Ask them how it was and how it might have been and how it is
now?
Ask those who spoke the greatest oration. The most eloquent,
most applauded speech.
All these men so soon forgot in the rush of other new men on
the ascendant. Did they remain on the pedestal after 30 to 1
hour moments of ephemeral fame?
Ask those who wrote the most profound books, it seemed then.
And were later placed in the dustbins, or in some insignificant
corner in libraries and bookshelves. Do they have doubts of
what they have written?
‘’Vanity of vanities’’, wrote and lamented the preacher of the
book of Ecclesiastes, he who was dubbed the wisest of all men.
‘’All is vanity’’, (Ecclesiastes, Chapters 1,2,3).
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII - PREFACE ‘’YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE
ABUNDANT LIFE’’
They are dead. And long dead who say there is no God. Or
God is dead. And the eternal Creator God of the whole vast
universe and who is present forever, laughs at all these mortals
whose fleeting moments on earth are but the brief trajectory of
a falling star. And have since long returned to the dust from
where they came from.
Of course, there are. And they are the ones that really matter.
The true reality. The ones that endure thru every passing tide
of man-invented theories and counterfeit verities. They are
true reality. When all the self-created illusions and delusions of
self-importance and grandeur in men’s hearts are finished and
gone, perished into the nothingness of nothing from where they
spung.

Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
What about the story of the rich man who must sell all of his
goods in order to follow Christ?
Why did mankind miss out on the true meaning of life which
consequently made them to miss out on living the truly abundant life?
25
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Part I
YOU WERE BORN TO BE HAPPY!
You were placed on earth for a purpose. Every human being that has
ever lived and ever died have their special destiny to fulfill. You have a
heritage prepared for you just as much as the nearest person next to
you. The greatest, the strongest, or the most cunning of anyone in any
generation who seem to have too much of everything and anything,
seem to have taken all of that which everybody ought to have and then
they lord it over everybody as overlords and benefactors. They made
servants of others and placed themselves atop to be served, instead of
being servants for the sake and welfare of others, (Luke 22:25):
Yes, all men are created equal although it may appear sometimes
that some are more equal than others. So, as life goes on, this seems
to be the way things are, and consequently, true!
26
This is Satan's Big Lie to establish the satanic, devilish, wicked and
perverted way on Earth!
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
You were born to live in abundance. Yes, you were born to have, and
to know, THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Why, then, that nobody seems to know how to live the abundant life?
What is this strange universal malady that has disabled, albeit crippled,
the human race as to deprive them of the ability to live abundantly?
Once upon a time many, many hundreds of years ago, someone,
somewhere in the Orient, sat under a tree. He vowed that he would
never rise up until he has found the answer to all the problems of
human life. One day he finished his contemplation. And surely he rose
for he felt that he had found enlightenment! And illumination!
We look at the fruits of the lives of those who have professed to have
eliminated desire. We can see that they have not really known
satisfaction afterwards. Consequently, they are not really truly happy.
They have not found happiness.
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
The same teaching has only caused able-bodied men and women to
spend the best years of their youth and lives living in self-styled poverty.
As a matter of fact they, especially the men or the male sector, spend
much time on the streets barefooted, barely clad, head shaven, with a
begging bowl. The practitioners of this way of life and thinking believe
that it will bring them to their goal of perfection.
than one fifth of the population of the world. That is nearly one billion
five hundred million peoples on planet Earth!
What then must you do? Logically, you must step out of such a
confused world!
For why must you allow yourself to be deprived of what has been
allotted for you?
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Part II
HOW CAN YOU RECLAIM YOUR
HERITAGE?
For the last two thousand years there has arisen a Way of Life that
seemed new and novel when it started. It aroused and stirred people
from their complacency. It also brought terrible persecution before it
could even take root, (Acts 19:23; 22:4, 14,24):
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Yes, it is new, and yet strangely, it is not. For this way of life is new in
a sense, and yet it is truly ancient. As a matter of fact, it is the most
ancient of all because it started at the very beginning of mankind's
history. Right there in the Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve had first
lived.
There in that most beautiful Garden of all, the Way of how to have an
abundant life was revealed to them. They rejected that supreme and
wonderful knowledge. They lost it through the sin of disobedience
against their Creator God.
And so, therefore, how can we reclaim that which was lost from the
human race?
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Part III
WHO GAVE THE ASSURANCE THAT
WE CAN TRUST UPON?
Now, two thousand years ago, the great Creator GOD, descended
upon the Earth and dwelt among His creation in human flesh.
Yes, Jesus, the Christ of GOD, the Son of man, the Son of GOD, dwelt
among us, (John 1:1-12):
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Now let us listen to what He said. Let us turn to the Holy Bible, in the
book of John 10:9,10:
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
This astonishing truth has been twisted and warped by the blind self-
professing leaders of religion throughout the ages.
34
It is so good to hear the truth from Christ Himself. Yes, the founder of
Christianity declared from the beginning that to live in the Christian
way of life is to live the abundant life!
Why then, that those who say they live in the Christian way of life
seem forever unable to attain what the Founder of the True Way of Life
declared from the beginning? They would have, IF THEY BELIEVED IN
THAT WAY OF LIFE!
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Part IV
''By Their Fruits You Shall Know Them!''
36
How astonishing and how typical of human beings and human nature!
Today, they will use such words as : ''The Bible says . . .''
And they quote so-called scriptures and you look into the Bible
yourself to verify and then you find that the Bible does not say what they
say it says.
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Compare now these Scriptures to what the religious leaders say. For
they immediately contradict Him and say: ''He nailed the
Law to His Cross already. Therefore, the
Law is done away.'' And they further say,
the end of the Law is Christ.'' And they
say it to mean that Christ's crucifixion and
sacrifice ended the Law.''
And this is what Jesus Christ did to the Law. He filled it to the full. He
came to magnify the Law and made it glorious.
They have also used the word ''end'' to mean the Law is ended
after Christ' sacrifice. Again, the correct, actual and proper meaning
and interpretation of that word ''end'' is: PURPOSE, OR
OBJECTIVE, OR GOAL.
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
38
They have contradicted the very Savior Jesus Christ who is the LORD
GOD of the Old Testament, Jehovah (YHVH), (1 Cor. 10:4):
Sunday is the day of the sun. This day is observed as a day of worship
of those who believe in the sun god, an abominable heathen practice
condemned by the True Creator GOD.
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
However, The Creator GOD Himself declared that the Sabbath day of
rest is a day of delight. Turn to Isaiah 58:13:
For truly all that the Creator God had commanded man to do was
never for God's own good.
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
It is all for the good of man. That if man should do them, he may live
and be truly blessed, and have the abundant life!
There is none and absolutely nothing that man can do that will add to
God or subtract from Him. And yet, strange as it may seem, the so
called followers of the Christian Way of Life have locked on and latched
in to the twigs and not to the main trunk of the tree. And therefore, they
have turned their back away from the bedrock principles of true and
original Christianity. And they invented their own, and called each of
them with Christian sounding names.
41
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Part V
THE LOVE OF GOD IS THE KEY
Is this true?
42
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
One who reads this should really look into his or her own Bible and
read through verses 1 - 11. These all important verses of Holy Scripture
reveals to us HOW TO LOVE GOD. It details to us how, exactly, to love
God with all our heart, with all our soul, and with all our mind. We are
counseled to remember to hold the LOVE OF GOD, and FOR GOD,
dearest and most precious of all in our whole being and life itself.
There could be no other.
Exodus 20:1-11
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
And yet, like stated above, the followers of Christianity have been
misled to depart from this by all kinds of reasoning and interpretations.
All that one has to do is read the above Scriptures and believe them
and follow them.
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
The Almighty God indicts the false shepherds and pastors of His flock.
They will not escape the judgment of God, even by their very Savior
Jesus Christ. They have devoured the people. Even as they have
deceived them.
Listen to what the Eternal God says to them in Jeremiah 23:1-2; 11-

WHAT OF THOSE WHO FOLLOW THE
FALSE PROPHETS?
Even as the Eternal God indicts and condemns the false shepherds,
does He hold guiltless those who follow them?
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Part VII
THE PROMISE OF THE ABUNDANT
LIFE TO THOSE WHO SEEK GOD
Listen again to God make a Divine Promise to those who seek Him
and love Him. Let us go back to Jeremiah 3:19, 22:
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Never truly knowing it. It is truly sad to realize that all along, the simple
way is so uncomplicated, it has been declared by Christ Himself to
those who would follow Him. He made it known to those who would
believe in Him. To those who would repose their faith in Him. And in the
end, as they paid lip service to their Savior, they were doing the
opposite. Following wrong shepherds. Wrong pastors. Even wrong
prophets whom God the Father and Jesus Christ has neither sent nor
chosen.

Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Part VIII
THE TRUE SEEKER MUST LOOK TO
CHRIST
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
60
Part IX
SEEK GOD'S KINGDOM FIRST
To proceed from there, our first step is to acknowledge that our life,
even as the modern life is our life, is overburdened and over laden with
spiritual error and darkness.
And then we must ask God to help us be liberated from this darkness.
Subsequently God will reveal the answer and point the way.
With that set in your mind irrevocably, then look for the Way.
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
61
Yes, Jesus Christ the Son of God, our Savior, is the ANSWER and the
WAY. As well as He is the TRUTH. If we will seek Him and believe in Him,
then we will know the truth and the truth will make us free, (John 8:32):
And the truth will liberate us and lead us out of bondage from sin and
death.
Yes, you are blessed today who, by the will and mercy of God, has
miraculously, allowed you to hear or read these words.
62
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
For it is not given to all in our day and time. To each and everyone the
calling from God must come. And to each and every one through whom
the calling comes, God the Father looks into the heart and chooses
whom He chooses according to His will.
Jesus Christ is the only Way. As He is the Truth. And as He is the only
Way to the true abundant life.
And what of the rich man? Could a rich man become a true Christian?
This has become a paradox to many. As a matter of fact it has become
a stumbling block. For the story is told in Mark 10:21 of the encounter
of the rich young man and Jesus Christ. In a face to face meeting, the
wealthy young man asked Christ what to him was the most crucial
personal question:
After he had told Christ that he had kept the commandments from
his youth, Jesus looked at him and said to him:
The account in Mark 10 tells us that the young man went away
sorrowful for he had great possessions. And Christ said to His disciples:
63
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
When we die, we have nothing but ourselves to take into the grave.
While this is true, this has stuck into the minds of most in a very
negative way.
Is this what Jesus Christ said to the young man and to His disciples?
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
So, the difference is in the attitude. Like they say, ''It is all in the
mind.'' How true! The difference is in the attitude inside of the mind
and heart. Not in the possession of wealth and riches. Again in the
case of the rich young man, let us review Mark 10:21:
Jesus Christ would have picked him out to work with Him. And give
him the blessing and privilege to be a part of His team. And He put him
to the test by asking him to go and do what He said in the same verse:
The rich young man failed the test. Those today who are called by
God the Father to work with Christ, who would have riches and
65
possessions are not called upon to sell everything they have. Rather to
look at all of this with the right sound mind and balance. Today the
work of the preaching and the publishing of the Gospel, requires wise
stewards of financial resources. He would require a true Christian who
is blessed with possessions to contribute to His Great Work through
wise management of his assets and resources. To multiply them in
their value and allocate a portion of his increase to the Work in
heartfelt and cheerful offering. Then Almighty God will be pleased to
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
bless him with more. This is the answer to the modern rich Christian of
our day.
The Scriptures condemn laziness and sloth because they bring man
to poverty, (Prov. 6:9-11; 14:23).
Prov. 6:9-12:
9How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when
wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?
Prov. 14:23:
23In all labour there is profit: but the
talk of the lips tendeth only to penury.
For an enlightening example of how the Bible has been twisted about
money itself, it has been widely accepted that money is the root of all
evil.
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
And it has been bruited about that the Bible says it is. Let us look
into the Scriptures and see what the Bible really says. Read I Timothy
6:10:
This fact of life is even more true in our present modern society.
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
The Lord God Almighty loves the poor. Of those and among those who
have chosen to obey Him. And love Him. Even in the midst of their lack.
And it is even true that in many cases the poor of those who believe in
Christ are always prayerful and looking to God for help.
Often times they are more humble and teachable and manifest
strong faith. They tend to be more cooperative and yielded than those
who have much in material goods.
It does not mean however that God loves the rich less. It only shows
that those with possessions and riches have more to overcome in the
attitude of acquisitiveness and materialism. It becomes a test of faith.
If however they overcome and depend on God all the more, then God
can truly bless them and they become a blessing to their less fortunate
fellow believers and brothers in Christ. If they do, then truly they shall
know the deeper meaning of the spiritually abundant life. For their lives,
with their assets, become valuable instruments to fulfill the Will, Work
and Way of God on this earth, by His Word.
Sacred Golden Scroll Series XXII – YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE THE ABUNDANT LIFE!
Part X
THE ABUNDANT LIFE NOW IN THIS
TIME
So, now let us listen to what Jesus Christ told His disciples two
thousand years ago.
It is that point in time when like anything else even as they were the
disciples of Christ, they wanted to know the bottom line.
Yes, they have given up everything for Christ and followed Him.
There! You have the answer from the LORD and Savior Himself.
Now that you have it, He tells you finally with iron clad assurance.
Listen to Him tell this to you Himself. Read the book of John 13:13-17:

terrestrial ground, the heavenly correspondence and connection of His mortal
being, in the flesh for 33 1/2 years. He was totally committed, completely
absorbed, to finish His Father's Work, To His last seconds of His dying breath,
His consciousness was on God’s Work. He had a job to do.. . And
that,
HE DID!
When that Phase of God's Work for which purpose He was sent to earth and
manifest in mortal, human, flesh and blood, form was over, He cried on the
upright crude stake, at the very exact moment before He literally died, He said on
that wooden stake, “IT IS FINISHED” (John 19:30). Has anybody ever really
understood the immensity, the unfathomable depth of that moment of total
sacrifice of the Son of God for the forgiveness of all the sins of all mankind? Of
the total, collective SIN of everyone who was ever born, lived, died, and those
presently alive, which He bore and took upon Himself on that crucifixion?. Has
anyone ever shared the agony and pain when He was pierced by a Roman
soldier’s spear, and given bitter vinegar to wet His thirsting lips? When He
looked up into Heaven, and exclaimed, as it were, as He had prayed with great
agony earlier with His disciples: “Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from
me: nevertheless, not MY WILL, BUT THINE BE DONE,”(Luke 22:42). When He
willingly shed His precious Blood, THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB OF GOD, for the
redemption from the penalty of death for sin hanging over ALL mankind? Has
anybody thought of God the Father’s unscalable sorrow as He witnessed from
Heaven the unspeakable brutal tortures inflicted by good-for-nothing picky, petty,
power-crazed, puny mortals, clumps of clay, those “whitened sepulchres”, and
ultimately, the actual, literal death of the incarnated into human flesh other
member of the GODHEAD? In grief, God the Father could just have pulled out
the Holy Spirit of power holding the entire created universe together. It would
have been , like a blink on the screen, that the visible, physical, material universe
could have disappeared! Faster than the twinkling of an eye, all the physical,
material creation, visible and invisible, could just have evaporated.
The LORD was absolutely certain He had done that appointed job.
Before He returned to heaven, He prayed in the true Lord's Prayer in the 17th
chapter of the Gospel Book of John in the New Testament Scriptures:
IF YOU DO the Work of God, be it so little your part and participation, if you
do it with cheer, humility, appreciation, enthusiasm, and zeal being full of faith,
you can then hold God to redeem, to remembrance, and lay claim to, His
wonderful promises on your behalf! Christ did. And God the Father gave it to His
Son in whom He was well pleased. ASK AFTER, and He will give it to you.
76
Listen to God's RECOGNITION of you, your effort: ‘’How beautiful upon the
mountains are the feet of them that bringeth glad tidings, that publisheth peace;
that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that
saith unto Zion, thy God reigneth!" (Isaiah 52:7).
You become part and parcel, not a fence-sitter on the fringes of skepticism, an
integral constituent, a chosen fabric interwoven with, and of the foremost,
unparalleled company: "The LORD gave the word; great was the
company that published it." (Psalms 68:11).
The Lord Jesus Christ, the Divine Captain of Salvation (Hebrews 2:10), the
Author and Finisher of the Faith (Hebrews 12:2), The LORD of hosts (John 17:5),
The returning Messiah (John 1:41; 4:25; Daniel 9:25;9:26);the awaited Great God
and our Saviour (Titus 2:13) gave the 2,000 year-edict: "GO, Preach and
publish the GOSPEL of the KINGDOM OF GOD into ALL NATIONS,
GO INTO ALL THE WORLD, Teach EVERY CREATURE to
OBSERVE ALL THINGS I have commanded you, (Matthew 28:19; Mark
16:15; Luke 24:47). Be witnesses unto Him to the utmost part of the earth (Acts
1:8).
As loyal soldiers of Christ, the Prince of Peace, we look at all these inventions,
techniques and methods, systems and equipments, and we know how they came
to be from GOD! He placed it all in the minds of geniuses, inventors, designers
and engineers, manufacturers and craftsmen to conceive, design, and fabricate
them. For us to understand how to use and master them to accomplish and
zealously perform our individual part and role in our most interesting task, our
incomparable job, our thrilling assignment, in the Great Work of God.
77
So we, the soldiers of Christ, the Captain of Salvation, the Apostle and High
Priest of our profession, joyfully go forward. To zealously march onward at His
divine direction, to fulfill The Greatest Commission in all the world.
