Count it ALL as LOSS
This is a late edition of JUNE 11, 2011 Lesson.
We begin with Matthew 19:16-21
“Why Did he ask?”—> “Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?”.

Last week (yay it’s recent XD) Kuya Bong taught about REVERENCE!!
What is Reverence? It’s a holy fear, a respect of holiness.
In Samuel 17, David shows us what true reverence is as he takes a stand against Goliath for insulting God. But if you were in David’s position, what would you have done?
Kuya Bong teaches us 2 ways we can show holy fear to God.
1. Respect his will for us
2. Respect his...
