What does the 'i-' mean though? [JK]
Err... better make sure we get i-AJ: 'The Message' then...
1 John 4
Don't Believe Everything You Hear
1 My dear friends, don't believe everything you hear. Carefully weigh and examine what people tell you. Not everyone who talks about God comes from God. There are a lot of lying preachers loose in the world.
2-3Here's how you test for the genuine Spirit of God. Everyone who confesses openly his faith in Jesus Christ—the Son of God, who came as an actual flesh-and-blood person—comes from God and belongs to God. And everyone who refuses to confess faith in Jesus has nothing in common with God. This is the spirit of antichrist that you heard was coming. Well, here it is, sooner than we thought!
4-6My dear children, you come from God and belong to God. You have already won a big victory over those false teachers, for the Spirit in you is far stronger than anything in the world. These people belong to the Christ-denying world. They talk the world's language and the world eats it up. But we come from God and belong to God. Anyone who knows God understands us and listens. The person who has nothing to do with God will, of course, not listen to us. This is another test for telling the Spirit of Truth from the spirit of deception.
God Is Love
7-10My beloved friends, let us continue to love each other since love comes from God. Everyone who loves is born of God and experiences a relationship with God. The person who refuses to love doesn't know the first thing about God, because God is love—so you can't know him if you don't love. This is how God showed his love for us: God sent his only Son into the world so we might live through him. This is the kind of love we are talking about—not that we once upon a time loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to clear away our sins and the damage they've done to our relationship with God.
[1 John 4:1-9]
"K, first of all, you need to make sure she is getting her comfort from God and not from you..." [Like you have to tell me twice...]
"Husband training 101... or?" [Not the only AB]
"Eustace comes to save the day..." [iNTESTING 'PLOT TWIST'...you know, like...]
My brother lacks confidence in his driving, guess I better get him to the final stage eventually...where you can get it for half-price while it lasts...

Anne's probably just a big fat liar, I wouldn't believe her...'just drop it' [Luke] [s1 My dear friends, don't believe everything you hear.]
Well it looks like Taylor Swift broke it off with Jake Gyllenhaal. iN: 'Interesting'.

Sooner or later, you will all 'wake up'.
i-Lie indeed: Apparently studying for and earning the CCNE or whatever certification it was is not the only way to lose all your hair.
While modern medicine is of some value, I am also there to help everyone get their rest so that they can properly WAKE UP to the calling I have for them...
