Christians are not only followers of Christ, but Christ lives in them. He founded the Church to guide
and unite Christians so that they live holy lives which are pleasing to God. However, Satan deceives
many Christians who continue to profess Christianity but their lives are in agreement with
the powers of darkness. The following is a guide on how Christians should live their lives
and as outlined in the Gospel and Scripture as a whole guide by the Magisterium.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MARRIAGE
A man and a woman agrees to live together Amos 3:3-11. Marriage is an agreement / contract.
You officially marry to have a legal right over each other. However, one comes to Church to
get the Sacrament of Matrimony so that God enables you to love each other the way Christ
loves the Church and sacrifices for it. And the wedding party is just a celebration to eat and
drink, please others and show off.

THE KINGDOM OF THE DEVIL
It is a spiritual truth which all human beings should know and believe that God exists and that the Devil who
is the main adversary of God and of human beings also exists. The Devil and his collaborators are also
alive and actively engaged in deceiving human beings to follow the Devil and to neglect the only true God
and Creator of all things visible and invisible.
