Then why do i hear christian leaders talk about the bible consfication issue? about cannot use a certain Wallahaha word?

They also criticize certain powers to be in the nation what.

Its about love your enemies but that doesn't mean you accept what they are doing.

Yeah, I think every Church will criticize that, but the difference is, they don't hold any grudge against any single person and there's closure.

Jesus was mistreated by those who beat him and scarred him physically, yet He asked the Father not to hold these against them.

The very same spirit that the Apostle Stephen had and He uttered it from his mouth before his last breath, before the the last stone hit him.

It's really up to you, bro. It's still a spirit of unforgiveness. The Christians life is really of such high calling.

Listen, my dear brothers: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom he promised those who love him? But you have insulted the poor. Is it not the rich who are exploiting you? Are they not the ones who are dragging you into court? Are they not the ones who are slandering the noble name of him to whom you belong?

If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself,’ you are doing right. But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers.”

tell me, how the fcuk for the poor can help the poor? if u have no $$, help the poor? love others ? help ass? what a joke? just compare the great rich people, and those poor Christians, has nothing, only have so called "holy spirit" and bible, what can they do to save the world, help people for their salvation, and other thing and so on. except from using marketing and brainwashing skill to market this religions and generate more revenue income for their own church.
FACE THE f***ING REALITY dudes, from what i learn from those pastors and bible, EVERYDAY IS END OF THE WORLD, i learn how to self-destructing in a godly way.
eg. for example, i know some people (but not me , i am not so stupid to commit such silly action) destroy certificate , pay so much times and money and parents hard earn money and just waste like that without any responsibility. "and said we must love our parents", by doing these is freaking irresponsible to parents, such decision is so hurtful for parents.
if we cant serve the world, who the hell to feed us in everyday lives? using marketing  strategy and brainwashing method to lure unbeliever to come to church and expect to feed us by giving so called tithe and claim will get blessed by GOD o.0?  be a monk Christians ?( become Buddhist better ) it makes the leader become more incompetent, become good in talking instead of action to solve problems, the cycle keep repeat itself until everyday is the end of world. look at how outsider look down on this religions and they are afraid to tell what their heart felt becoz scare get judgement and punishment by these "face-thicking entities" which failed to admit their fault all the times. and many people left it,
i thought satan control the world according to bible? there are many companies and government manage to take control for all the resources. is jesus want us to starve to death ? why so contradict itself?
depart from world, yes i know if anything related to sinful is harmful.
everything depends on god or angels, THEN? failed to think properly, failed to solve problem for themselves and help others it is suppose to be a light fro the world? end up be what?
everyday living in a delusion and magical world, think like in a dreamworld , any magical thing can happen to their live.
whats the point we have the brain, anything and everything depends on these 'miracles and prayers'. can these entities solve the problems? it solve shiits problems. failed then blame the people. so irony
LOOK at the world, how they create and solve the problems. how they think.
if the churches have problem, what those Christians do ? pray lol, so simple. have fun and eat some 'antidote' to calm down their worries, and escape from the harsh reality and continue sleep, hoping for 'alibaba djinn' to save them, when next day wake up, problem still there, whats the points?
why dont learn to solve itself instead on 100% relying on these spirits, what if suddenly they no response to our situation, die right? (i know got bible quotes that "you must depend on god , by man cant do and this and that and will failed," oh really? look at the reality, now this is the modern times, not ancient time with no much information access and available at that time, thats why the can boost their power proudly)
i personal saw these situation in countless times. i know these "holy spirits' chose people to help according to their criteria so called 'faith' LOL
in real case, those people blindly faith and blindly believe really killed themselves by having these thought.
*
You forgot, there's a New Earth coming together with New Heaven.
That is why there will be end of the world judgement day, every living spirit will be judge, not 1 single person will be spared.

God will create everything new.

You only see such short term. There is eternity in the plan of God.

There are many things I can see you don't understand, the power of God.

I see it.

OK..

Then they want to suggest to meet up and discuss further with me about this issue. I said its not an issue because I'm going to get it remove. I just told them to stop judging me and leave me alone.

Then I got another text message telling me that I am not welcome for next week CG.  mad.gif

Its just a stupid tattoo.

When I saw them in church yesterday, they (CG Elder) would not even smile or even greet me, it is as if I was a total stranger. The others are not so bad.

I would not let this bad experience spoil my love for God. I will still attend this church, just not the CG. hehe..

Not all Christian leaders are like that.

God looks look first at the heart of the person not at what tattoo you have. These external things matters very little.

I use to attend a smaller Church, one of my good friend, Worship leader had tattoo on upper half of his body. He's from East Malaysia.

That was because of his younger day I think he was involve in gangsters, didn't remove it but God used Him and today He's sort of like a leader of leaders of worship leader.

IMO, Whenever Christians lives a powerless Salvation life, they have nothing much but to depend on God's law as way to guide and that produces legalism.

Because If He knew Jesus, Jesus would never condemn even the ungodly.

Glad you have a higher perspective. We go to Church to meet God, not lookup to Man who has flaws.

there is no such thing as "end of the world", it is "end of humanization".
Christ can never return to earth for 1 shot, it is only when a person time is end or has done the job in human life. some people pass early and go to heaven, some not, some need to wait until the time is over.
eg, if u having an exam, some exam rules state that once u finish the answer u may go early, some must stay back in exact time. if u pass , congrats, if fail then gg.com

say byebye to humanity, it is already reached in almost perfect hopeless state in city and development area/counties. and it is almost impossible for Christ to save these people anymore. ( i guess) and Buddhist (maybe still tiny hopes).
the argument and discussion about churches, Christ and all related histories in bible and all form of unclear and parallel vague verses meaning in bible is never ending.
continue to keep wasting time since the beginning. good luck

I beg to differ. Though I don't claim to know everything there is in the Bible but I think I know enough to say you're wrong.

God is graceful enough to let me witness the length and breath of life in this world to understand what is going on.

I've seen and tasted powers beyond your understanding.

I've seen the impossible made possible.

I know God.

I know Him as a Father more than anything.

If you tell me it's hopeless, I can tell you don't know God well enough.

Then how to forgive? To not utter a word when you see them doing somethng wrong?

Yes Jesus was mistreated, and he ask God to forgive them but those who tortured him are going to hell, because they never repented their sins and accepted Jesus as saviour.

Even after Jesus was crucified, the Apostles continued to address the people who tortured Jesus as those who are doing the wrong way in their epistles.

I knew of a very staunch brother got one time, he was very enthusiastic, he asked his brothers to come for a club he wanted to set up. So i asked if I can join in, then at the table, i was criticized by his friends because they dislike my request. I continued to ignore what they said and still talk like normal even though i was criticised. After that he realised he did something wrong, he later apologised to me. But again, he still not invite me when he organized those club stuff. Not that I have anything against him, I forgave him too but I wonder how honest was his apology?

Even if you went to a certain brother to say sorry, later your actions don't reflect that at all.

So what constitutes a 100% forgiveness?
*
Let them go and don't hold it against them.

Freely you have receive from God forgiveness then freely you should give towards your enemies the same forgiveness. biggrin.gif

You criticizing and being being bitter about is not going to change them.

Even if you make a mission to tell 100 people about it, won't change them.
Not everyone is going to listen to you say , some may even think you have something against them, may backfire.

Whatever it is, my point is, You can't change or control people.

Only Love can and even that by the works/power of the Holy Spirit.

The body of Christ belongs to God and only God alone has the power to change people and Bible is very clear, of all the virtues, even Faith, Love is the strongest and the greatest.

FYI, I'm not trying anything here, not trying to win argument but trying to help you, like I said, it's up to you really. If you don't accept this, then lets close this.

How about Hebrews 9:27
Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment
if you know how the universe/nature law/god of law work, we do not die once, only the memory swap away if the time is up
the hebrew claim this because of the human memory, there is a time frame for everything, even in heaven, the difference is long or short,
unknown warrior, i saw many miracles too,  healing, cast out demons, solve many human life problems, however, the deep root problems still failed and always failed to get resolved due to many factors,
again, there is no such thing as "christ die for our sin". it is a trap.nvm
*
You see, but I've tasted.

And through my teachings, I have imparted that taste of grace to others by God's grace.

Of course you will see many factors, even problems can never be solved, very simple conclusion, You don't know God well enough.

Even as ex-Buddhist, I know for a fact many people live their live in fear of the future, fear of the unknown, fear of the supernatural.
Worse of all, Fear of lack of money. That is an established fact for all religions.

If Christ didn't die for our sins, I would not testify to you of the powers of God.

Only when you are reconciled to God, you can then access into God's resources.

I used to be a bitter and selfish Christian before too. I only think of myself and could not care less about others.

I used to think why God let so much sufferings in this world. Why so much evil in the world? Why does He let the good people die? But then today, I realized that God gave us free will to decide. To repent require us to take that leap of faith into the unknown.

To fully trust the Lord and to accept Him as Our Eternal Saviour.

Yes, God let all things happened, good and bad, so that He can come to save us, but not all of us are going to repent and be saved.

God is good, all the time, and all the time, God is good.

Thank you God for giving me a second chance in life, to glorify your Name and to be your servant.

My perspective of life truly changed for the past month. I felt that God truly lifted my burdens off my shoulders. Its really unbearable at times.

All the booze and casual sex is so pathetic indeed. I felt dirty, unloved and I regretted over what I have done.

I really need God to forgive my sins again and He forgave me. And I feel new and I can look into the mirror, and I promised to God that I want to live a righteous life again.

No more booze, party, clubbing, sex, tattoos, etc..

I live for God now.

Salvation is about resting in God.
Your Trust/Faith is in God so much so that you are at rest, because you know He is the one who save you.

It's not about struggling in your effort to obey God (Righteous Life) that gives you salvation.
If you think about it, that is the works that the Bible speaks about.

This foundational truth must be firmly establish before God works in your life to make you obedient.

Salvation is about the work of Jesus, nothing about us or from us.

de1929, up to you. i dont need to argue with you.

unknow warrior,  Fear of lack of money and Fear of death are the main concern.

in bible it state, 'christ die for our sin' is not equal to 'testify the power', from what i know, no such thing happens. yea he resurrect, because he done the job according to the law, and went to heaven.
the way to heaven can be 'patterned' in creative manner religiously, still all creatures have to follow the same rule in order to go there.

not all chosen one receive the taste will 100% succeed go up.

By God's grace, many Christians don't have those concerns.
They've learn to depend on God, to be less paranoid or concern, some even peaceful about it.

No that's not what I mean by power.

God answers and move on behalf of our prayers as many Christians who understand the principal as how God outlined it.

No, not the same rule.

Your religion teaches, you must work for your Nirvana. Same with all other religions, you name it all based on works of Man.

Ours is given by God because of HIS work. Our part is to believe.

unknown warrior,from your reply, this is one of the example i called as 'trap'. it is not as easy as u think, and it is not as simple as they said too.

Yan,

If you try to reach God by the Laws of God, you will be right. It will be a trap for you and difficult. (do good, get good, do bad, get bad)
That is what I've been preaching since day 1.
That is why you have problems.

But the ways of God under the New Covenant is different.
God made it easy through Faith and Grace (Receiving good without effort)
You are trying to reach God under the New Covenant using the Old Covenant way.

That is why you are always at war with yourself and with God.
The Old Covenant way is exactly what all the religion in this world is based on, even Buddhism.

That is why you don't understand Christianity, this is where you missed it.

Indonesian capital gets a Christian governor


http://news.yahoo.com/indonesian-capital-g...-074852615.html


JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) — The first Christian governor of the Indonesian capital in 50 years was sworn in Wednesday despite loud protests from Islamic hard-liners who insisted Jakarta's top political job go to a Muslim.

Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, a Protestant who is also the first ethnic Chinese to become an Indonesian governor, had gained a reputation as deputy governor for being outspoken and combatting corruption and cutting red tape. He is better known by Chinese nickname "Ahok."

Indonesia is the world's most populous Muslim nation, where 87 percent of its 250 million people are Muslim. Christians make up about 10 percent.

Purnama, 48, took the oath of office in a ceremony presided over by President Joko Widodo — the city's previous leader before he became president last month — at the state palace in Jakarta, where 10,000 police and soldiers were deployed for security. Purnama's term runs until 2017.

Islamic hard-liners have held street protests against Purnama's installment as governor of the city of 12 million. The Islamic Defenders Front, a hard-line group known by its Indonesian acronym FPI, has vowed to stage weekly protests against him. FPI has a long record of vandalizing nightspots, hurling stones at Western embassies and attacking rival religious groups.

Jakarta's first Christian governor was Henk Ngantung from 1964 to 1965. Christians are spread out unevenly across the Indonesian archipelago, with larger concentrations in northern Sulawesi island and some other eastern islands.

Born as Zhong Wan Xie off of Sumatra island, Purnama was elected to Indonesia's legislature in 2009, and was installed as Jakarta deputy governor three years later.

Ethnic Chinese make about 15 percent of the country, and were subject to government discrimination during the dictatorship of Suharto that ended in 1998.

Ok I get it. I know that doing good works does not guarantee us free trip to heaven.

Ephesians 2:8-9

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

*
Tina I need to tell you that the devil will fight very hard to make you forget this truth.

He will subconsciously plant in deceiving thoughts and doctrine to try and make you go back through works. You may not realize it but everytime you have difficulty being close to God, THAT is the time you must remember this truth. That is the signal to know you have been deceived.
I pray the HS will remind you everytime.

And works here is not about good works. It's not Church works. In the Greek, the word for works is Ergon meaning, anything that is of yourself, as outlines in

Ephesians 2:8 (NIV): For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God

So you need to ask yourself this question: What it means that is not of myself? Answer: Anything that you do.

Something like this: I must walk in line with God's command, to be obedient in order to be saved.......That is Ergon.

Not to say walking in line and obedience is something we should not do. It is something we cannot use to justify before God for Salvation.
That is the difference.

Those 2 will come in naturally when your first base foundation is properly established. Which is Faith and Grace.

Faith in God will make you say, even umgok is subjected to the sovereign power of God.

That's why I share this good news from Indonesia. If it works there, it's not that hard for God to break open here.
Nothing is impossible for God not even umnghok.

Don't confess with your tongues, death type of confession, confess with your tongue the power of God according to scripture.

I give you one verse, I hope you will meditate on it

Proverbs 21:1 (KJV) - The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.

Ephesians 2:8 (NIV): For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God.

What does it says in the red?

And what is a gift?

These 2 questions will help you understand what ergon is all about.

I guess it is easier to follow outward ordinances or throw verses ... than to see the inward need. Not easy.

I like this verse, Acts 15:9, "He made no distinction at all between us and them, cleansing their hearts by faith."

Peter's word about the cleansing of our hearts by faith indicates that God does not care for outward legalistic ordinances which cannot cleanse man’s inner being; rather, He cares for the inward cleansing of man’s heart.

We should be more concerned on the inward "tattoo wearing" in man's heart ...
*
As what has happened to Tina,

The stone throwers at the temple wanted the prostitute to be condemned for the things she did.
That's how some people in the Church operate, today. Very old school. Very Judicial. Very legalistic.

You're doing wrong, repent first before we accept you. The train of thought is the same.
They saw her as something of filth, dirty and unclean, they forgotten the grace given to them.

Jesus defended her from the Church of that day, gave her no condemnation first. ( John 8:11 - neither do I condemn you ).
Then He asked to leave her life of sin.

The Church wants you to be condemn first, then repent.
Weird isn't it?

It's like everything is reverse. Many old school Christian do not practise the truth you've just outlined above.

Those who have the right type of Believe/Faith will end up obeying more (unconsciously) than those who try to put themselves under the Law being very conscious of what they do everyday.


Obedience is not an effort. It is the fruit that comes from right believing. If it is more of effort, that means you're not doing it according to scripture.

Right understanding of God and Salvation (knowing that you're secured apart from your "ergon") will produced Right Living.

The Holy Spirit only operates apart from your striving or "ergon".

Think about it. wink.gif
