The Mystical Universe and Heaven

Science is a study that answers “what,” “why,” and “how.” Everywhere we look, science is seemingly sitting on a chair silently. Experts cannot say when science has emerged upon the soil of the earth. This field study enabled humans to finally realized ideas that were impossible at first: exchanging pleasantries between distances, cell phones/computers; traveling above the roaring sea, airplanes; traveling below the sea, submarines; traveling through waters, ferries; less traveling time, transportation; typhoon prediction, satellites hovering above the ends of the earth; studying the universe, space probes; outside earth civilization, MarsOne Project, and many more.

    Humans use science in attempt to making life easier, easier than the easiest. It is a field that for sure comes out of the blue long long time ago. It is impossible to trace back the starting point of science but it is obviously from the time when men do several activities connected to science but they do not know anything about it, they do not even know that it is science.

    Martin Cooper was the first to simplify Alexander Graham Bell’s telephone. Cooper’s customization to Bell’s telephone enabled humans on the succeeding years to enhance it even more. Cooper removed wiring attached to the telephone and in the long run, it became the first model of cell phone. Cooper’s development to the telephone has become the basic foundation to our modern cell phones. Thomas Alva Edison was the man behind all of the sophisticated types of lighting today as he was the first who invented the very first light bulb. Tycho Brahe first thought the idea of a device that would enable humans to see distant objects, and then Galileo Galilei materialized it through his telescope. Look around your room, or turn your gaze around the city, how many inventions could you count? Countless! And men literally live in a world where ideas put into reality. It is amazing how humans can overcome their endeavor to produce an invention that comes from their brain, an organ of tissues with millions of neurons doing specific tasks in the process of thinking. How is it possible for a clump of tissues to build an extraordinary civilization?

    Look how man talks, look what he is using, look what he eats, look at the environment of the city, everybody seems to ponder not the impressive outputs of human brains. The concrete grounds they step on, devices on their pockets, those engineered fluids they take in, vehicles they ride in, cosmetics they wear, substances they put on their hair, garments they use to cover their bodies, accessories, etc. The environment of our earth has changed wildly! From dusty and muddy to concrete and stable roads, green to gray, clean to polluted, and simple to demanding.

    Notice how we have changed the entire earth where we live in. Notice how we also destroy it. It is all the fault of our productive thinking, our knowledge. Let us take the passage from the Book of Genesis literally. Now why did God order Adam (and Eve) not to eat the fruit of knowledge? And I know for sure you have gotten what I am trying to convey. This is what God being scared for. Humans have gone too far from what He expects. We have exceeded the limitations bound to us. Human mind becomes unstoppable in searching knowledge down to the earth and up above the space. Humans have corroded the word impossible. Now we could go beyond the atmospheric limitations of the earth, walk on the distant Luna, examine the universe via establishing probes and sent them outside far from the earth looking for other possible life forms and possible planet that could harbor life.

    Talking about universe, how big it is! The size of the earth relative to the universe is like the size of the virus in earth terms. We are contained in a very minute planet. The earth is like the group of dusts aggregated in every corner of our room, silently existing and lonely and neglected and alone. If you try to imagine the vast size of the universe and then moved to earth with high resolution of zooming, we would have the notion ‘why and how we live and why and how we get in here’. Does the existence of life mean anything to the vast size of the universe? No wonder many of us ask, “Are we alone in the universe?” When we go deeper and ponder about the universe as well as the existence of life, the essence of God comes on our way. If we look at the universe, it is of vast space dotted by so many “particles”; planets and stars to solar systems to galaxies to group of galaxies, and nebula, black holes, comets, asteroids, and dark matter and dark energy. If we talk about earth, it is alone enormous but when we compare to other “particles” it becomes just as the speck of dust. Because of this fact, some people say that life has no meaning and that it has no purpose, existed by chance and thus the ideas we have about God is a hoax to fill human minds regarding our very existence. People above the earth do not understand the nature of life and God because at the first place, they lack wisdom. According to the Bible, wisdom belongs only to those who know and admit that god exists. The wisdom helps one to understand some issues which science and religious folk struggle to answer. When they lack wisdom, they could not understand even the very basic spiritual truths and atheists do have that lacking. We have known that God gave us everything. What about knowledge? Should we take the Book of Genesis literally or not? This book of Genesis tells us that god disallowed Adam (and Eve) not to eat the fruit of knowledge that would enable them to recognize what s right from wrong. Does it mean that God do not want them (Adam and Eve) to acquire knowledge? Sort of, am I right? It would eventually give us the conclusion that God did not give us knowledge but humans acquired knowledge through evil means. Did you get the point? It could be the reason why Pope Piux XII declared 50 years ago that the first chapters of that book in the Bible were merely creative literary writings. Surprising it may seem, the newly discovered Gospel of Judas tells us that “God gave the knowledge to Adam” contrary to the long ago story of Adam and Eve. It absolutely informs us that God precisely granted humans the needed “knowledge” for everyday living. But what is happening to the atheists? They are using their power of reasoning from the “knowledge” disproving the very existence of God. Atheists do not understand that existence (the knowledge in particular) because they do not believe that God exists which is the prerequisite of achieving wisdom. Wisdom is different from knowledge. Wisdom is something spiritual in nature but knowledge only depends on raw facts that the earth could offer. Atheists were not granted to own wisdom because they obviously are abusing their power of reasoning. It is possible that God has given the knowledge to humans later after they were able to stand with their feet. It means that He gave the knowledge not in an instant after creation. Why? When someone acquired even a bit of knowledge, he could cultivate it and make it grow. And the intelligence of men is actually abused, especially by the atheists. Humans hunger more for knowledge. But hungers not for wisdom. That is why they could not grasp the very nature of God.

    One joked, “Have you seen God?” Then someone answered, “No.” And he reasoned, “Then there is no God.” Here, the interrogator is using a schoolboy philosophy “to see is to believe.” Men are using their earthly standards to question the existence of God. In order to believe, there must be evidences. But isn’t the Bible says, “Blessed are the ones who believe in despite of not seeing Him,” and Jesus said it himself. This quote from the Bible propels us to put that schoolboy philosophy in reverse, “to believe is to see.” Atheists do not believe that is why they do not see. Humans are intelligent because their creator is intelligent. Humans talk because He talks, too. Humans do feel emotions because He also has the capability to feel different emotions. Humans can think and ponder because He does them. Humans have their figure because they were created according to the likeness of their creator (Genesis 1:26, 9:5). “Only a fool would say, ‘There is no God’” (Psalm 14:1a, CEV). We believe that there is God not because we do not want to be the recipient of that verse but because we really believe, and that He resides in Heaven.

    Some who do not believe also ask where Heaven is, and they are trying to corner the believers. Of course, we do not see Heaven. Knowing Biblical truths is the requirement to having heavenly perception, joy, and body. However, if we ask the Bible about the location of the Heaven, it says intriguing answers given by Jesus.

    “You will look for me, but you won’t find me. You cannot go where I am going.” –John 7:34 (CEV)

    Since Jesus is 100% God-like and 100% man, he is reliable for what he is uttering. He once again said the same thing:
    “I am going away, and you will look for Me, and will die in your sin. Where I go you cannot come.” –John 8:21 (NKJV)

    Why is it that we cannot come to the place where he is today? (Of course, he has already ascended in the heavens.) Is it because we are mortals and have fleshes that die, or something different? On the same chapter, we read another fascinating word s of Jesus.
    “You are from below, but I am from above. You belong to this world, but I don’t.” –John 8:25 (CEV)

    Where is that above? When we use prepositions, we need a physical reference. For example, “The bird is flying above the tree,” the tree is our reference. “The decoration was suspended above the table,” the table is our reference. We should have physical reference in pointing that something is above or below. Do not be confused that the Bible also calls the universe the Heaven. But talking about John 8:25, what reference could Jesus be using? Was it the universe? The universe is enormous, it stretches so far that men could ever imagine. Because of its size, we could not tell if it’s unending or has boundaries. One reason that disables humans to measure the size of the universe is the minuteness of humans with respect to the universe. Another factor could be the time needed to go beyond the space. For example, scientists have found out how viruses infect cells. But due to their minute sizes, they need so much time to successfully penetrate the nucleus of each cell. That which is the same for humans in penetrating the universe, however, universe is intently massive in size. Human lives shorter time than how long it would take to reach few light years across the universe. 1 light year is equal to 9,461,000,000,000 kilometers. The closest galaxy from the Milky Way galaxy is Andromeda which us about 2 million light years away. If 1 light year is 9.46 x10^12 kilometers, how long there would be in 2 million light years? This fact disables men to see what is beyond our solar system. Now, experts rely on Pioneer and Voyager space probes as one of them has reached outside Pluto’s orbit…only, knowing that it was launched several decades ago. Human tries to calculate the size of the universe although it is impossible. How is that?! If they try to measure the size then does it mean the universe has boundaries?

    If Jesus used for instance the universe as the reference to point where the Heaven is, then it also means that the universe has limits. An object has molecular boundaries making them one complete and separate object. Same is true to universe, probably. But if the universe has boundaries then what lies outside? (Additional Bible verse to ponder from Luke 11:40 (ERV): "You are foolish! The same one who made what is outside also made what is inside.") It could be the 4th dimension realm, the Heaven. Now why we could not get there? Several reasons! Humans are mortals, humans are not angels, and humans are not permitted to go to “heaven” because they have flesh, so these are the reasons for another reason why humans are tiny specks of dusts in the universe, unable to go through the edge of it. This is one of so many notions why we should believe that God exists, and that there are angels. These angels are the ones who control the heavenly bodies. In earth term, one should be high ranking in order to rule over people, and here is another schoolboy philosophy, “you should be 'tall'” to be able to control smalls. So what do we mean by this? That God and His angels are giants? Yes! In fact the disfavored Book of Enoch tells us about the height of the angels in heaven, also that Book of Enoch tells about the watchers who  impregnated women whom they lid their desire because were women are beautiful. After their rebellious acts, they begot children with extra ordinary heights. I know many do not claim that account as true and it is not literal. However, Genesis 6:4 summarizes the entire story of the watchers and beautiful women. These children who were giants are called Nephilims which when translated into general terms it means “giants.” Goliath is the very famous character in the Bible when we talk about height. Also, Enoch 9:1 says:
“And then Michael, Uriel, Raphael, Gabriel, looked down from heaven.”

    In simple logical explanation, you should be “tall” in order to “look down.” The children of the fallen angels inherited their angelic fathers’ characteristics like those rebellious acts and the physical trait which is for example the height. Search the internet and make a research about these Nephilims.

Long before this semi-theory ends, I want to ask you a question. What was happened to knowledge given by God to us humans? It was fully developed, many claim they are superior above others without even thanking the one who can recover it.

    “I will destroy the wisdom of all who claim to be wise. I will confuse those who think they know so much.” -1 Corinthians 1:19(CEV)
    “For it is written, ‘He catches the wise to their own craftiness.’” -1 Corinthians 5:196(NKJV)

    The issue has started because of knowledge. We have gone too far amassing knowledge. He granted us knowledge to satisfy our needs but we violated Him. What we, however, are clarifying here is that God is true. He is in the Heaven and heaven where men could not come. Universe is below the Heaven and heaven is above us universe. “Wait until I make them as your footstool.” This is from the Bible and it could mean that the universe is below the Heaven. They created humans just like themselves; have eyes, nose, mouth, ears, intelligence emotions, but have no flesh. Why? It is because flesh dies. However they do have Spirits that clothe them and a Spirit does not die. If we open our Bible and read Revelation 1:8, it says:
        “‘I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,’ says the LORD, ‘who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.’” (NKJV)

    It means that He is real, that He is a Spirit and that He does not have end or beginning because Spirits do not die.

    “The Spirit is the one who gives life! Human strength can do nothing. The words that I have spoken to you are from theta life-giving Spirit.” –John 6:63 (CEV)

    The Spirit Jesus is talking about in his words here is God, the Father. If you cannot grasp the essence then retry grasping through looking at the universe, a vast space with so many extraordinary particles. He is the only one who could create this amazing universe. God and His angels are powerful than what we think. They could even CRASH the universe including humankind without any warning in just on command. No wonder Jesus calmed the storm, heal the sick, raise the dead to life, multiplied loaves and fishes, turned water into wine, and a lot more. They are powerful that they could even read one’s mind, like Jesus. He always knows what the Pharisees and Scribes are thinking. Angels could in fact know what humans are thinking right at this very moment. We are hopeless but they could provide. Hence, God and His angels are true and they reside in Heaven.

Minute Change Brings Colossal Aftermath

One thing is constant on the face of the earth, it is change. Change is sometimes unexpected, enormous, and frightening. On the other hand, it occurs little by little, and not worth paying attention for. These type of changes are usually unnoticeable in the instant snap of our mysterious eyesight. Although they are supposed to be ignored, at the end they play a crucial role we do not expect. The more these changes spark a little, the more they become significant.

For example, a fraction rise of the temperature of the sea for several consecutive years contributes great effect in the emanated weather systems. Many argue about this factor and said that this is actually what contributed Super Typhoon Yolanda (Int. Name Haiyan) the devastating power which consequently took a lot of lives, ruined properties ranging up to Php 40B estimated damages (Source: NDRRMC as of January 14, 2014, ranked as the second costliest and deadliest typhoon that struck Philippines), and brought tsunami-like ocean surges with pounding, ear-piercing seething wind speed of 315 kilometers per hour (1-minute sustained). An unnoticeable very minute change indeed needs attention in preparation for the future.

What I am trying to convey stated in the second paragraph is that we are either the suspect or the victim involved in such change. We cannot deny the fact that we often blame others why a tragic change rose not considering ourselves as implied in the layman’s term “washing thy hands of committing something.”

Now here is the query, why there is so many humans who ignore Holy Scripture? This might be an awkward question for some (I am sure for that) but let us just seriously try to talk regarding that matter. So why? Why most of today’s people crave more material needs than spiritual nourishment? Why most of the youths put more focus in playing DOTA than in playing super simple maze game directing the subject to Godly standards? Why they opt to play games with violence? Why they are being hooked by those games?

I am not that imaginative about this issue, I am pretty sure that you have already encountered this one. Many of us do not exactly know what is in our way AHEAD but through little proof of changes we can foresee what might come possibly. Younger ones are becoming addicted to computer games, a very good thrill and excitement while having the game session gives them enthusiasm to crave more involvement until addiction occurs. I am pertaining to addiction that do not elevate somebody’s living, well I know not all addictions sound horrible.

I do have the mannerism of reiterating topics so please bear with me. Preoccupying your mind by anything means you do not let other items intrude your thinking, in this way, you sometimes forget other important matters. Voila! You leave them behind your back and sturdily fight against your own mind for your other cravings. Result? You do not spend care for other stuffs, the integral stuffs.

The unobvious reason why others tend to disregard the holiness of their selves is that they are so submissive for their bodily needs. So putting much focus on material needs detours you away from acquiring Godly-standards unless you are born to have the management-ability in operating your life with modulation for material desires. Since I used the term modulation, free me to speak out my insight. Even though modulation is proper utilization of something, it does not specifically mean you are entitled to do whatever you want especially those stuffs which contradict Almighty Being’s words

Do not just stick your attention to huge changes.

Generally speaking, the more a man is attached to being submissive materialistically, the more his mind is focused in the irrational thinking that he manifests. I am thinking of a new way to connect this stuff sa pagbabagong nangyayari o nangyari sa mga tao.

Men confidently say, “I do believe in God” or “I do believe that God exists” yet the practices they are believing in preaching are not suitable for what He expects from us. At first these are just simple habits until they eventually integrated these into their traditions. Sometimes the reason why they unfortunately incorporate these is because they live their lives with their own standards without the intrusion of the word of God. Integration of certain tradition must be kept serious. It should not be the way you think simple and free acquisition of belief which you do not know whether it is worth valuing for or not. So what I mean for this is that bible is really important in living our lives with the standards God is wanting for us.

I wrote this blog not be mean for those who love celebrating occasions like fiestas in tribute to the saints. These occasions do have a common denominator and that is “clothed with false words.”  These are explanations saying ‘we should do this because…’ but I am saying to you all also to please keep on knowing what the words of God are telling us. We should not just rely on our own comprehension because the best explanations can be found in the Holy Scripture and not inside the brain. So that’s it. Thank you for reading my items.

Media: Makes or Breaks?

Television (TV) viewing quite brings us fun, excitement, and seething anticipation of an upcoming program. Some of these programs drift our emotions, some of them make us laugh, some of them dishearten us, and some of them influence us. What I am going to talk about on this blog is the latter one, the influences of media to human life. Please take note that the term media used in the succeeding paragraphs pertains to television.

There is no such thing as smart viewing because it happens in the mind. Whatever warning you present, you cannot manipulate the viewers’ mind, the decision lies on individual’s understanding. If a kid heard that warning yet he did not understand or he really is curious why that warning has been presented, of course he opts to stick his nose on the television to watch the succeeding program.

Parents are of no use when it comes to TV viewing. Television is addictive in the side of children even for adults. None is really capable of manipulating one’s mind unless the power of satanic motivation is used, you know what I mean.

In the late 1960’s, Albert Bandura conducted a psychology experiment among children. He presented a film showing a man with violent actions against an inflatable doll. After the film, children stayed in a room with inflatable dolls around. The next scenario was unexpected, children who viewed the film manifested the same actions they saw from a film while those who did not watch the film never acted the same. This gives us the point that media greatly affects men’s doing particularly children. Children at young ages easily mind-controlled, what would surely happen when they grew up if they were continually exposed to the media?

The most abundant form of media today is television. If it is one of the best ways to getting knowledge (as they say), then why do TV stations present fatalistic shows and programs with adult content? Does it mean they are also giving idea how to become fierce against one another? Remember, TV is among us and everybody could now use it even by the younger ones. Many of the children mimic the brutal actions presented in the screens. They realize the movements they frequently see and make themselves violent and aggressive. Most of them adopt unpleasant manners from viewing extensively harsh film or video clips but even a simple drama program in the television would be a medium for them to acquire such behaviors (quarrelling, disrespectful manners, physical fighting, using deadly weapons, and sexual intercourse).

I am not making these all up. My nephews, aged 6-10 years old, love to watch wrestlers wrestling inside the ring every night using physical strength and other items as weapons. The following day, together with their other playmates, they are going to look for an open field and start wrestling each other. They often end up crying while telling that his playmate boxed him or kicked him. My nieces, on the other hand, play with others but prohibit them to borrow toys. I still remember the TV program that a young girl portrayer acted being selfish on her doll house.

Another story of my ex-classmate supports my views. His nephew mimics Sponge Bob’s behaviors such as banging his own head on a concrete wall several times and letting himself freely fall down on the ground with expected great impact against his head. If the impact is dramatically forceful, brain damages would occur.

Most of the time, these media air dramas portrayed by adults. Bear in mind that whatever a child sees to grownup ones, it is possible for him to imitate the actions because children incorrectly think the same for decent and offensive actions done by adults. TV and real-time situations are both belong to single category so beware of your undertakings in front of children who easily adapt things they have seen or heard.

Although the reason why I am telling these is to explain that TV sometimes does not help humans to mold themselves into better ones, I mean what I have posted. I am not exaggerating the effects of TV viewing, I am giving my perceptions enforced with the behaviors (of known children) usually observed after they watched a TV program.

Misconceptions about Education

School is where we spend our time from childhood to adulthood and almost 5% of our life is consumed. Huge number of people concretely assure their life to become more successful if they have undergone learning inside the school. So they unobviously agree that school is a crucial institution ever invented by humans.

I would not wish for anything about returning back the time for disengaging myself in school. In fact, I am glad I met friends inside the school whose influences to me pay much the worth of coming in and out of the premises. These influences are not just typical influences may acquire by friends inside a circle. It is good for everybody to adapt things that would surely change views and opinions, and that what was happened to me.

For so many years, people are seriously sending their sons and daughter in schools (public/private) equipped with the anticipation of their successful schooling at the end of the school year. How lucky are those who receive lots of merits in gold, silver, and bronze with special awards depicted by additional medals made of metals. School is really a place where we encounter different opinions. Some of them may do not accord to what you know. Although my notions are surely not the same with you, I must disperse them even if they kill many of the students’ enthusiasm (just if so).

Education is usually incorporated with school and is commonly tied with being able to surmount the years-long schooling, it is to graduate. Education is to finish course with title, a description which is the stereotypical knowledge of everybody about education. Educating means imparting (or providing) knowledge (Encarta Dictionaries, 2009), education therefore means the acquired knowledge or simply the knowledge you earned from studying enumerable lessons given by the professors. Now if your name was unfortunately not included in the “List of Graduates,” does it mean you did not obtain knowledge, does it mean you do not have the education despite of knowing that you have gained better understanding? Of course not, isn’t it? But why is it many are longing to march during the graduation ceremony? Because of several reasons. First, because many of us do not know the real meaning of education. Second, many are obsessed with the feeling of procuring degree. Third, they want the popularity. Fourth, actually…there were just two reasons: the First and Second.

Spending 5% of your life is a very long time, it is equal to 17 to 20 years or even longer. Imagine the 2 decades of burning mid-night oil, enduring pressures brought by the usual upcoming mid-term and final exams in major subjects plus the tensions imparted by the minor subjects, the fright we felt every time we meet a terror lecturer, the sudden late announcements of terrifying scheduled exams and requirements’ due dates, yet many withstand these hardships only for acquiring degree-attesting-papers. What possibly be the reason why many are obsessed in grasping these documents? Could it be the PPP or Prestige, Power, and Popularity? 

The fourth paragraph of this article tells you that education is about gaining understanding to comprehend what reigns the earth. It is about knowing things. It is about obtaining better knowledge in dealing with the society. It is about knowing agreeable from disagreeable substances. It is about having wise explanations regarding everything. Education then does not directly point to completing a certain course in a tertiary level. Recognition, plaques, credentials, medals, or anything do not fully define your education, because education chiefly and emphatically pertains to your gained knowledge and not to your gained degree. It may sound strange to you but the essence of this thing can be explained logically. Putting too much and deep description about education may complicate your life thereafter. It is quite important to seek the true meaning of education to keep ourselves away from cowardice as the consequence of misconception.

What if you stopped going to school, or you did not graduate, how your life would go? Practically speaking, we need to have better “acquired knowledge” in order to get hired in a company if ever we apply. Since they only hire applicants completed certain course, for sure your application appointment be eventually dismissed instantly. I am telling you, many prefer to comply nowadays with worldly qualifications. It actually render us the denotation that many were simultaneously captured by the orders of these unobvious controllers of human life. I featured this perception in my blog entitled Human Government: Keeps Human Life Tougher, please check that out to read the entire blog.

How do you often think or do similarly the things revealed by this blog?  Education does so much in human life, either it lessens or graves men daily living. Aggregating all the proofs, education that exists alongside with worldly deeds makes life unstable and full of uncertainties. It is mind-puzzling how to fix the prevalent incorrect belief of mankind through written ones, this is just a mere blog to others.

I constructed this blog because that is how I perceive the world as implied by the title of this blog site. The notions you read in this blog are perceptions of the content contributor. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to leave a comment below and I am willing to answer you back (if I have free time).

Biblical or Unbiblical?

Whether we like it or not, we are here on Earth to give glory to God, to study and preach His words using the bible and worship Him. What dominates these days is materialism. We must be very careful in distinguishing what is our need from unnecessary ones.

(a.) Standard Living

When the knowledge of men boomed, many of its consequences drove men away from living that complies with the ideal living the bible is endorsing. Today, many aspire to become rich but did not the bible tell us that rich men would have hard time in entering God’s kingdom? Therefore, aspiring to become a rich one does not comply with the standards set the bible for those who will going to inherit God’s kingdom. Material richness is given to mankind solely by the Earth but Jesus clearly uttered to us that we must depart from all the things that belong to the Earth. These words are the words do not want to hear by people who are engaged with the Earthly systems prevalent today. The original standards of living set by the bible is manipulated and changed by the people with unreasonable words. Once I believed this quote: If you were born poor, that is not your fault. But if you died being poor, that is your fault. This quote is straightforwardly opposing the words cited formerly. The times I do not yet know the truths stated in the bible, I always keep that very seriously in my life. But when a friend approached me and told me everything about the bible, it was the time when I started changing my views about life. That quote is invented by mere human who is obviously drifted by the materialism of the world because that motto propels us to think about accumulating money with great amount. If a person does not know the bible, he would take it as an inspiration. He would even believe that we must really become rich or enthusiastically struggle to become rich for the reason that it is our fault if we died poor. But again, Jesus the Messiah tells us that poor people will be blessed at the end. So would you believe to Jesus that being poor is not the thing that would keep you unblessed at the end? Or you would believe to that saying created by man with the influence of materialism? This gives us the concrete context that people had set another standards of living and disregarded what the bible is stating. That motto sarcastically accuses people (who are behind the entire society) the ones who did not persevere during their childhood. If you then valued that quote then you too are throwing accusations against them. Did you know that every time Jesus talks about poor people, He sees them luckier than rich men? But they are contradictorily evaluated by the said motto. Very opposing!

(b). Worshipping God

I can hardly ponder that millions of people scattered around the globe use figurines like Sto. Ñinos, statue of Mary, Jesus nailed on the literal cross, figures of saints, and many more. Most of the Christian claimants use these kind of religious paraphernalia throughout their life. They are used to kneel toward these items, asking guidance, and shortly pray. Believers believe to the power of their priests’ holy water sprinkled on the items. After presenting them to a certain priest, owners highly gain confidence that those items were really a “blessing” from God through the words spoken by the presiding man. I am sorry for being redundant guys about this issue. The bible does not tell humans about this “holy water.” You cannot find anywhere in the bible saying ‘a water which is holy.’ Another thing, priests know that using images or figurines in worshipping God is not biblical. Okay, you can read the story about Moses’ followers worshipping an idol but not because you can find it there (in the bible) then you are going to practice it. No! God hates people who use figurines in worshipping Him. God does not like idol to be worshipped by men (Exodus 20.4).

Q: But how come these millions of people do this ungodly thing? Putting too much devotion to man-made crafted figurines?

The answer is very simple. They do this against-God practice because they do not know what is inside the bible, they do not read bible. They imitate what their leaders are doing.

Q: Does that mean their leaders also do ungodly practice?

Precisely yes! Religious leaders that do not accord with the real bible teachings are called false prophets, the bible itself is telling us about these false prophets. Figurine users are happily presenting publicly their known devotion incorporated by their items unaware of the truths about true worship. It is important to read and study the bible because bible is our manual in operating our life. God gave us this book (the bible) to making out life more functional. As what I have told you in the opening paragraph of this article: We are here on Earth to give glory to God (this is our real purpose why we live on this planet) and not to do what we wanted to. Everything we do other than studying/preaching His words and worshipping Him is not what He envisions.

Human Government:Keeps Human Life Tougher

I accidentally heard this question from an unknown person, “what if there is no government that leads us and tells us what to do, to do these and those?” And the one he is talking with commented, “That is impossible. If there is no government, there will no peace and order in the land.” It is stereo-typically supposed as a logical explanation that to be able to achieve peaceful community, there should be officials that would officiate the entire group of people. These officials will entail the power of human laws that individuals should obey. They then dependent to laws that men created in maintaining neutral P&O of the community. Therefore government officials use laws to manipulate the human activity within their jurisdiction. Do you see the point? Human government complicates all human hardships and sufferings.

      We live in a world where qualifications are needed in order to accord with the rules, regulations, guidelines, and laws. How? Before having good life, you must undergo stages that steal your time, prolong your success, and consume almost a third of your life. Why? Because that is the qualification of the human government.Is that the life we are longing to attain? Could not we grab easily a good life that do not undertake difficulties? Human government forces its people to comply with the orders of their earthly systems. Some will philosophize, “you must endure first the adversities before stepping into the door of victory.” Do you believe in that? I do not think that way. Government, operated by humans imposing so many guidelines, is the cause why we live our life seemingly impossible to improve.

      Rules, Regulations, Guidelines, and Laws though explained differently, they are agreeing in one the same sentence: to preserve the image of a certain “body.” What is funny there is that human government does not just keep human life tougher, it also support the fact that human governments increase crimes. I love to put some questions here so again, how crimes are emanated by these governments? Because of too much imposing RRGLs, many of the people are unfortunately disregarded by the society particularly in job application. A company sets qualifications like: must be a graduate of any 4-year course, must have a degree of blah, must be proficient in blah, knows how to speak blah, and many more citations about what they need for an applicant. Well how about those who do not have these qualifications? Their resumes end up in a garbage bin and ignored. No source of income leads to poverty. It is hard to apply for a job, is not it? Opportunities are mushrooming yet few are hired.How it became? Because of the laziness to search for a job and idleness to apply? No. It is due to the earthly system they do implement. The result of unemployed persons is the massive increase of criminalities. We often hear from a caught criminal this reason: I have done that because of the poverty. Another opposition goes like this: If you have studied well your lessons during your schooling, you would not face poverty. Sounds reasonable to those who do not know the very detail of human government.

      Extracting all the ingredients of survival will help you understand why many experience poverty. What we usually do is looking on the shallow reasons and explaining our point to them, which is I call a hazy viewpoint. We can even pay close and talk about Satan who is said to be the root of all evil. But you cannot say in the authority, “because Satan forced me to do that, and I am not entitled with this crime. Please free me.” Do you think they will free you? No, because what they follow is there law, probably the incarceration when someone violated the human law to foster human government. Government officials think they can create a nation of literally peaceful and organize citizens via instilling their laws. Falsehood! There are sets of hundred human government RRGLs, and as a result, some of them contradict other one. Amazing or disgusting?
