We only live one day at a time - and today I can stand victorious over everything that wants to hold me down.

Do you want to stay at the foot of the cross - and do you wanna get up on the cross and be crucified with Jesus?

The Gospel of God | Foreword
app.hiddentreasures.org/en/b…
It is on my heart to expose the terrible deception that the spirit of Antichrist has succeeded in introducing among the millions of people who call on the name of God. This spirit has explained away the obedience of faith—and with it, the whole gospel.
The spirit of Antichrist has also falsified grace, with the result that most of these people believe they are God’s children, when in fact they are not. In order to shed light on this deception—and thereby reveal true grace and the gospel as well—I have arranged the subject matter in a series of brief chapters, each containing this subject as the recurring theme. This way you will be able to read them separately and gain an understanding of the deception in the specific area you are interested in. This deception has had an effect on every aspect of life.
It is amazing how this deception had already taken hold so firmly in the time of the apostles. When you read their epistles, you will see how earnestly the apostles warn against this deception, exhorting us to be on guard against it. Now if this was the state of affairs in the time of the apostles, what about in our own day and age!
It is my hope that, after reading these chapters, you will have gained a thorough understanding of this deception.
This book is intended for those who want to be disciples, for those who are seeking true godliness.
Your happy brother in grace and salvation,
Sigurd Bratlie

Hi @zabirauf,
Not sure, but it would seem as though the previous improvement that was made has been undone, and we're currently sitting with the messed up version of unorderly emoticons all over the place - and Microsoft seemingly trying to mess with its clients' minds...
Any idea how that might have happened?
Am I maybe doing something wrong?

Zohaib, hope you're doing well! 🙂
Just noticed that things are looking better already.
Thank you very much to you and your team for that!
You'll notice, though, that there's no more "hands" tab, so we can't give anyone a thumbs-up anymore.🫤

For direct comparison, these are the equivalent Smileys, Hand gestures and People sections in Microsoft Teams.
The difference is immediately visible: Teams provides a proper Recent section, commonly used emoji first, coherent groupings and related variants kept behind base options rather than overwhelming the main view.
Search exists in both products, but Teams does not force users to rely on it. Its categories are organised well enough to browse naturally and quickly.
Microsoft already has a substantially better solution. Please bring that structure and usability to New Outlook. 🙏
ALT Screenshot of Microsoft Teams’ emoji picker. A Recent control is visible. The Smileys section begins with orderly rows of common happy, laughing, affectionate, kissing and playful facial expressions.
ALT Screenshot of Microsoft Teams’ Hand gestures category. Hand gestures are arranged together in a predictable sequence, with small indicators for available variants. The Recent control remains available.
ALT Screenshot of Microsoft Teams’ People category. Individual faces are arranged in coherent rows by appearance and age, followed by basic emotions. The Recent control remains visible.

@Microsoft @Microsoft365 @Outlook @zabirauf
New Outlook’s emoji picker is a serious UX and productivity regression.
As a paying Microsoft 365 customer, I use Outlook primarily as a productivity tool. Yet inserting one ordinary emoji can take 30-60 seconds because the categories have no clear ordering and there is no obvious Recent or Frequently Used section.
New Outlook does have a search function, but that does not solve the underlying problem. Users should not have to stop writing, determine the correct keyword and type it into a search bar whenever they want a common emoji. Search should be an optional shortcut, not compensation for categories that are difficult to browse.
The three attached New Outlook screenshots show the problem:
• “Smileys” mixes faces almost randomly with hearts, cats, a bomb, skull, speech bubble and other unrelated symbols, rather than beginning with commonly used expressions in a predictable progression.
• “Hand gestures” intersperses hands with a bone, tongue, eye, tooth, anatomical heart, brain, nose, lips, ear, limbs, lungs and mechanical body parts.
• “People” begins with a scattered mix of family and relationship variants, pregnancy, kneeling, breastfeeding, fantasy figures, clowns, professions and activities instead of following any logical hierarchy.
The direct comparison with Teams, shown in my first reply, makes this particularly difficult to justify. Teams begins with commonly used emoji and provides coherent categories, predictable ordering and a proper Recent section. Variations remain available without overwhelming the main picker. Why has New Outlook been given a substantially less usable browsing experience than another Microsoft product?
I have no objection to Microsoft including the full range of demographic, family and relationship variants. However, they should be organised neutrally beneath base emoji, as expandable variations or within clearly defined subcategories. Their current prominence creates an avoidable impression that representational priorities have taken precedence over neutral, frequency-based organisation and everyday usability. Inclusion does not require poor hierarchy.
Please bring the Teams structure to New Outlook or, at minimum, introduce a proper Recent or Frequently Used section, standard Unicode/CLDR ordering, logical subcategories and expandable variants.
An emoji picker should let someone find an ordinary emoji within a second or two by browsing the appropriate section. It should not interrupt the flow of writing an email or force users to search because the categories themselves are disordered. This implementation is unacceptable in a paid productivity product.
@zabirauf, I realise this may fall outside your Compose Copilot area. Could you please help route this to Caitlin Hart, Margie Clinton or whoever currently owns New Outlook’s compose and emoji experience?

To love Jesus = To love His judgments! 💡
We're free to accept Jesus or not, i.e. to accept being judged or not.
Those who love the truth come to the Light, and they get saved from all darkness.

Jesus offered Himself (His own will) once (and) for all (since the time He could distinguish between milk and honey), in complete obedience to God - which ongoing, daily obedience finally led to (or culminated in) Him sacrificing Himself physically on the cross of a Calvary.
Through His offering (up of His own will) He opened permanent access to God and made sanctification possible.
We can now follow Him by sacrificing own will on the altar (of our heart) and keeping it sacrificed there, rather choosing God’s will each time our flesh pulls in another direction.
A person can therefore be “perfect” in the sense of having a wholehearted, undivided disposition toward God:
“Here I am to do Your will.”
At the same time, that person is still “being sanctified,” because the actual contents of their flesh are revealed and put to death gradually.
💡 Quick quiz:
If Jesus's obedience to God's will led to Him being nailed to (sacrificed on) the cross of Calvary, what will our obedience to God's will lead us to?
💡 Quick clue: there are no more crosses of Calvary to be nailed to...

Here's a much better (life-changing) movie to spend your time on. Not necessarily for small children, but for teenagers and adults who'd like to flip their current way of seeing life and Chistianity on its head:

Fast, flashy videos, emotional hooks, dopamine hits, celebrity credibility, and a product to buy in the end can make “Christian” content feel powerful and plausible.
Yet, Jesus did not come to become content. He came in flesh, lived the life, overcame, and called people to follow Him in His footsteps (to live the same life He did).
Are we still looking to do that or are we looking for our next religious high?
“So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple.” Luke 14v33 NKJV
“But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. 8 Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ.” Philippians 3v7–8 NKJV
ALT Split-screen illustration contrasting public celebrity and quiet everyday life. On the left, a long-haired celebrity-style man in flashy clothing stands in the spotlight with cameras, reporters, and bright stage lights around him, suggesting fame, image, and attention. On the right, a normal man in an apron stands at the kitchen sink washing dishes and looking toward the viewer, while his wife sits in the background and their child plays nearby. The image highlights the contrast between commercialized, attention-driven religion and a simple, humble life of service at home.

Anyone who believes they're no longer in darkness in any area of their life has lost connection with the Source of Light and no longer needs Him.
An "all-enlightened" person no longer needs anymore light, so will be left in their darkness which they thought was all light.
For God, though, on the contrary, even the darkness of night is as the bright noonday sun.
I'd rather acknowledge that the rest of the way through my flesh will be through utter darkness, so that I can remain in desperate need of a Saviour until my last, dying breath.
The way backwards is to rest on my laurels (the light I've already received), which soon leads to pride and high-mindedness, and an offputting spirit to anyone who is poor in spirit.
True revelation is that the way forward is through the flesh (through my corrupt human nature) - through darkness into more and more of God's glorious light over how much I still admire myself.
I choose true revelation. What do you choose?

The scene symbolizes hidden self-worship, pride, and inner darkness being exposed by light.
