I Believe

I believe in God--The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit.

I believe Jesus is the Son of God.
I believe He came in the flesh to save the world.
I believe He died on the Cross and rose again on the third day.
I believe His death was to save me from my sinful nature and give me abundant and everlasting life.
I believe He ascended to heaven after His ressurection.
I believe He is alive forever more.
I believe He will come back some day,
To take everyone--who believes in Him, repents of his/her sins and asks Him to be his/her Lord and Saviour--home to be with Him forever--
This is an event we Christians call 'Rapture'.

 

I believe in the existence of heaven and hell,

I know it is not a cock and bull story nor is it a fairy tale.
I believe Jesus is the only way to the Father, the only way to making it to heaven.
I believe my good works and moral uprightness are not good enough to save me.
I believe the only righteousness God recognises in humans is the righteousness that faith in the saving grace of the Blood of Jesus bestows.
I believe Jesus lives in me, I know as well because I experience Him whether it is rainy or sunny, whether it is stormy or calm.
My claims are foolish, I understand, but the 'foolishness' of God has ever proven wiser than men.

 

I am glad I know Him personally and have a working relationship with Him.

I beseech you to seek Him today and invite Him to save you from yourself, from eternal damnation.

Are you confused about this whole Jesus thing?

Pray sincerely to God, with an open mind, to make things clear to you,
If you seek Him and do not give up, He will reveal Himself to you.
For you will seek Him (God) and find Him, when you seek Him with all your heart.
Jesus loves you and really cares.

 

HAPPY EASTER!

PUT NOT THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE

Put not the cart before the horse,

Put not sex before marriage.

Just as it is foolish to put the cart before the horse

So is it foolish to put sex before marriage.

Sex with your girlfriend/boyfriend/fiancée/fiancé might be great,

 And you might really sincerely end up marrying each other and still have no issues,

 But that doesn't make it right.

 The Divine order of things is for sex to grace marriage, to spice it up and lubricate it.

 Sex is for the married.

 And like I saw somewhere,

"Dating is not for mating."

 So, flee sexual immorality,

Sexual sins are sins against your own body which is God's temple--

 Which God is very jealous over.

 (That doesn't make other sins less than sins, though.)

 Change your ways and return to the normal order of things.

 God will forgive you if you truly repent.

He will give you a brand new story and a brand new name.

Rice and Cakes

As a little child playing with sand and clay,
I cooked sand as rice and molded clay into cakes, pots and animals.
We exchanged stones-cum-eggs for paper-cum-money
And it was pure fun.
Little did I know that I would ever be paid for playing with sand and clay,
Little did I know I'd one day work in a kitchen
Where the only things we cook and serve are sand and clay
Only that now they are consolidated into rocks.
Yes, I am a geologist, working as a mudlogger.

Like An Eagle

Like an eagle we shall rise,
When the Lord comes acalling
And the archangel the trumpet asounding.
We shall soar and go meet Him in the air.
He will be very happy to see us
And we will be so glad we make it.
I hope to see you there in the air
On that glorious day Christ comes acalling.

Easy As ABC

Backsliding is as easy as ABC.
The mode activates the moment one starts to
Walk in the counsel of the ungodly,
Stand in the way of sinners,
And sit in the midst of mockers.
It will seem quite innocuous initially,
One might even justify it with trying to win them over.
But little by little, the feet slide,
And before you know it you begin to detest what you once hold dear.
Watch it, when you think you stand, a gulf is right before you.

He won't let you

He won't let you go through more than you can bear;
He knows it won't weigh you down and so allows it.
You will see at the end it will all work out for your good.
When you look back sometime later
You will realise how God was with you through it all.
Trust Him through the darkness, He is carrying you.
He will never leave you.

A LOVE SONG

My darling,
The love I have for you,
Mouth cannot tell it all.
Even though our love was not at first sight--
Not even second or third or fourth sight--
I never imagined I could fall so hard for you,
Not for once.
But I did fall for you
And I hope to never recover,
My green green olives.
