In Christ Alone

Praise Report

One night, my stomach was upset. And I just utter a simple prayer. So, I need to get out of bed and drink something. Lo and behold, after 30mins my stomach pain has completely gone.

I really do believe the power of the Holy Spirit living inside of us which Christ Jesus has told us as our helper in times of need. John 14:15

Praise be to God.

Warning Against Stealing

Nowadays, we are groaning because our investment are plundered through scams, they borrow goods and money with no intention to pay, high price of commodities, educational and pension plans declared bankcruptcy and so on. All of these are in conjuction with corruption.

People are aware of God's commandment: Do not steal. That is one of the immortal sin mentioned many times in the bible.

The thief was required to pay restitution, often being required to return double and seven fold the amount he had stolen (Exodus 22:1-15 Proverbs 6:30-31).

The consequenses of theft, if they do not serve their sentence for the crime they committed could have serious repercussions that affect the rest of their life.

Psalm 12:5 ‘Because the poor are plundered and the needy groan, I will now arise,’ says the Lord. ‘I will protect them from those who malign them.’

In Matthew 15:19, theft - robbery, scams, corruption - are all categorized as evil or serious crime.

Proverbs 3:7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. 8 This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.

GOD as Holy and Just

Jude 1:7
In a similar way, S***m and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion (tagalog kabaluktutan). They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.

Fire is a powerful symbol in the Bible and is often associated with God's presence and power. It is often used to represent
God's judgment and purification.

Jeremiah 23:29
‘Is not my word like fire,’ declares the Lord, ‘and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?

Fire represents as the most difficult circumstances that may result to either be destroyed from it or comes out of it purified from impure way of living like refined gold and silver. It is for the purpose of knowing and living in godliness.

There are literal fire that is happening nowadays everywhere in our country, which maybe accidentally happened and or maybe planned by sinful minds.
2 Peter 3:16
He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

God is holy and just but that does not mean He is pleased that people will perish.

2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

May we all know and grow in the grace and the knowledge of our LORD GOD our savior..

A Godly Leadership

Mark 10:42 Jesus called them together and said, ‘You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. 43 Not so with you (we as believers of God).

God, the Father Almighty is the LORD of Moses and gave him the Ten Commandments carved in stone. That Golden Rule is to be obeyed by the Israelites. It is also used in any government leaders to be followed by the people so that there will be peace, unity and harmony amongst us all.

A great leader is a follower of God first and foremost. He must love God above all and serve the people by that kind of love.

Therefore, when the LORD of lords, King of kings, Father of all fathers is your GOD and LORD, things will be in the right accord.

When God is our LORD, we follow His laws, decrees and stipulations and by doing that, we ourselves follow the laws of this world. We highly esteemed and respect the rulers of this world but not to the extent of compromising what is JUST.

God is our only Sovereign LORD and His dominion and kingdom endures forever.
