Tongue of mercy

The way we use our tongue is an indication of whether we have the wisdom that is "full of mercy."

Sometime people due to jealousy or contentiousness we were to boast, lie, or spread harmful gossip. And how quickly these injurious talk can damage an innocent one's good reputation!

True mercy requires that we use our tongue in a chaste, peaceable and reasonable way. See how important it is that we be merciful in the use of our tongue as said by Jesus at Matthew 12:36 "I tell you that every unprofitable saying that men speak, they will render an account concerning it on Judgement Day."

Tongue of mercy is what we need to say as exactly what we want to heard from others .........

I once was blind but now I see

We have been living in this world for so long that we start taking things for granted.
We start accepting things even our conscience tell us it is wrong. We are being influenced by the world together with "unseen" society pressure, sadly, start accepting certain things which are wrong from God's standard.

Have you ever wonder where is this "unseen" pressure coming from? Created by human themselves? Or it is coming from some other more powerful spirit that control the world?

See what the bible said about this.

The unseen pressure is coming from Satan as bible said at 1 John 5:19 "We know we are originated from God, but the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked (Satan) one."

Human sometime can be so blinded as bible said at Jeremiah 8:6 ".....There was not a man repenting over his badness, saying, 'What have I done?' Each one is going back into the popular course, like a horse that is dashing into a battle."

How can we make ourselves "see" and stop being "blinded"?

Reading the bible can help us to "see" things more clearly as 2 Timothy 3:15-16 said "All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness, that the man of God may be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work."

The words of God (bible) trains us to have the ability on how to love what God love and to hate what God hate as bible said at Psalms 97:10 "O YOU lovers of Jehovah, hate what is bad......".

This precious ability is illustrated as "solid food" as stated at Hebrew 5:14 "...solid food belongs to mature people, to those who through use have their perceptive powers trained to distinguish both right and wrong."

May all of us start seeing and not being blinded again...

Comfort & Love

It has been a blessing experience for me yesterday night when I was attending the Wednesday church service at Nottingham.

The love and words of comfort from fellow Christian's brothers and sisters really overwhelmed me. It must be the grace from God Jehovah upon me. Some of them even prayed for me at their private time as I just have been laid off from my job here.

I am going to miss all of them and I will definitely carrying the love of them in my heart knowing God want us to be happy even when we are facing with tribulation by showing love towards us.

Thanks God and all the kingdom hall brothers and sisters from bottom of my heart. Praise Jehovah.

Teach us to be good....

It is true all the beliefs "teach" us to be good.

But have you ever wonder is it enough for our beliefs just "teach" us to be good?

Do we need to examine ourself what are the other teaching of our belief other than "teach" us to be good? Is it matter if the other teaching of our belief doesn't make sense to us other than the part teach us to be good?

If a person give you a glass of water with a small drop of poison inside it and say to you "don't worry, most of the content of the drink is still pure water." Will you still drink the water?
I am sure the answer is No. Nobody will.

See what the bible said about this.

2 Corinthians 11:14-15 "...Satan himself keeps transforming himself into an angel of light. It is therefore nothing great if his ministers also keep transforming themselves into ministers of righteousness...."

2 Timothy 3:5 "....having a form of godly devotion but proving false to its power.."

James 1:27 "The form of worship that is clean and undefiled from the standpoint of our God and Father is this: to look after orphans and widows in their tribulation, and to keep oneself without spot from the world."

Most of us used to say "most of the beliefs are same, teaching people to be good". But shouldn't we not putting ourselves in a situation as Jesus said at John 4-22 "YOU worship what YOU do not know."?
