My Canvas

I been thinking lately, and I come the conclusion that I am grateful to the man upstairs, that despite my foul character. I have found friends that would stood by my side. I speak the truth, when I say when people become my friends they become a part of me, and it is always pain when friends drift apart, especially when its no one's fault but your own.


In all my years, I meet friends and bros whom I enjoyed their companies and soul sharing. Those memories are still in my mind, despite my failing memories which plague me from my youth, which is hazard in my profession. Sometimes, it unfair I feel for my friends who befriend me, as though I aged, my maturity and characters have not.

It's not like I getting younger, therefore from now on I be dedicating myself to embraced and practice responsibility and maturity which is expected of people of my age.

Sometimes, I feel so disconnect with the world, I find it hard to connect with people and open up which is my biggest issues. Well for all said and done, my journey of self betterment which start recently will never end until I become a change man by having a open door policy by opening up to those matter to me and be more sensitive with friends and family

Hypocrisy

I hate a hypocrite. If I going to be scold for something by someone I rather be scold by someone who didn't do that particular thing for habit.
Someone had lecture me about credibility and keeping one's own word. But he himself never does to me . This is a small matter not worth mentioning but I mention anyway because his policy is small things matter.
Last year I had a bet with this fellow if I drank a cup of coffee with one spoonful of salt I get one free hour of CC from him. I still remember he laugh at me as if I was a joke but I tell myself never mind since this is a bet, however I was a bit angry when he didn't belanja me CC. Not that I am desperate for that free gaming just like what he said small things matter and keeping up to one own words. The same fellow lecture me about not belanja him for the bet I lose and not being able to keep due to circumstances. The word he uses is he didn't want the free food just want me to keep my word. I was annoy by this bullshit, I mean what right does he have of scolding me for not holding my words when he doesn't that annoying pest.
Furthermore, at one time on few occasion he keep throwing tissue to my coffee and provoke me somemore. He always tell me don't make joke that hurt other feeling and not funny. There are others  things but forgotWell did he think of that when he throw tissue to my drink. I bet he think it funny, well I don't I think it annoying. It old news but I mention because he seem to forgotten and think only I am at fault. The reason I didn't mention this to him is I hate to bring up old news unlike him and I hate to be the one starting argument. Asking not to say can you remember this and that when he do the same sometimes like me.

Always want his way and always prying to things he didn't belong. He may have the intention of helping and I may need help in improving my attitude and behavior but the last thing I need is excessive control on my personal life. There are reason why I don't tell certain stuff so when I said I don't feel like telling stop probing. Stop using helping me as an excuse to pry into my life. If I need help I will ask. The other day said if I didn't tell him I wouldn't know the solution to my trouble which I already ask my other friends but he insist me telling him despite the fact I told other people and made known to him the fact. stop assuming i am an idiot and dont said you dont obviously you do by trying to solve every details of my life. I do need some personal space you know. Call me a blogger warrior if you want, just know the reason i am not arguing with you now is it too late and I don't want to have any discussion with you. You always claim I have the tendancy to debate, well you have the tendency to win at all cost so no point arguing especially when I my self is full of flaws and correcting myself but that doesn't give anybody right to control me more than my father did and my father does very well with control

Feeling

In life sometimes lesson come in either hard way or the easy way. It is said that either you learn it the hard way or the easy way. Personally I don't care as long the person giving is worthy. When I mean worthy I don't mean hypocrite and attitude of same stubbornness as me. it true I may be wrong in certain things and have attitude problem, but I don't have to take it from people whom I HAD NO RESPECT. I can never respect people who done things themselves and correct other for the same stupid thing and accusing people of crimes or things they didn't do.

I have been advise by many people but only two or three of those people I take it although I may appear not to take them seriously. But you are not one of them. I remember you accuse me of a lot of small things which I don't want to mention.

 You are suppose to be the person who advice me on certain things and correct me if I show my attitude. But all you do is expecting me to follow blindly everything you said than sorry I can't take your so call advise anymore. The reason i am not taking this out with you is because I am a person who hate confrontation. Yes it true despite the talkative personality I have I hate to ex press myself in certain ways.  Not that I am afraid or anything although you may call me so I don't care. I always get angry when people accuse me of things I didn't do or refuse to listen. I may been told to learn form you but now it is impossible. However, I do realize that my attitude still there and I shall continue to correct it myself if I had too even if everyone abandon me.

As time past and age increase, it is more hard to ignore the fact there a higher authority out there and I don't mean the prime minister or the richest man in town No. I mean God.Yes, you heard me right it is God.The reason is simple when we were young, all we knows is cartoons and when is playtime or lunch time. However, as we grew older we somehow(I don't know how) think lots of stuff. Usually those stuff are things we can't control as in the origin of life, purpose of life, life after journey, the reason behind sickness and famine and more importantly the existence of God. This perhaps as we grows older we faces have worries such as ageing, uncertainty in career path, sorrow, rejection and etc. It certainly is a sad case to carried those burdens in our little soul with the idea that we just popped out of nowhere to have this burden than we were created by higher Authority for higher purpose.When there people, there is diversity of ideas. This is common especially in a community as large as city. Thus, having lots of ideology  philosophy and religion stuff to your face is common. But once a wise person(I hope he wise) said all belief are interconnected and contain some truth which upon understanding will bring us to a belief with the whole truth.


I personally is a Christian, so where I stand and believed is not hard to understand. While being Christian is a enjoying responsible as Christian we had lots of things we tend to consider when associating with one another. One of these things are the question is if people really can visit heaven or hell and can prophesize and if so how do we know which is true. Consider this, you been prophesized by numerous people saying different things and it could not all be true right since each one contradicting one another. 
I believe in prophecy but to know who is real prophet and differentiate prophecy real or fake is the problem

"Their imaginary dreams are flagrant lies that lead my people to sin. I did not send or appoint them, and they have no message at all for my people. I, the Lord have spoken! Jeremiah 23: 30-32

'The problem is, in the hands of a fruitless Christian, the prophecy will tend to get warped into something other than God’s original intention. Prophecy is meant to strengthen, encourage, and comfort, (1Co 14.3) but in the hands of a fruitless Christian, it will be used to tear down, humiliate, and manipulate.

Non-Christian “prophets” are also known as psychics, mediums, channelers, fortune-tellers, astrologers, and all sorts of things. Many of them will claim to be Christians, wear crosses, quote bible, and speak Christianese, but largely they’re just using Christian props; they have no more of a relationship with Jesus than any pagan.

These folks don’t get their information from the Holy Spirit. They get it from other spirits, or from objects: rods, stones, cards, crystals, whatever. They might use those objects as props—much like we Christians sometimes use prayer props—to help them make contact with the spirits they talk to. But there’s the problem: They’re talking to spirits. Not God.

While those spirits might be quite knowledgeable, they aren’t, like God, only interested in our good. We don’t know their motives. We only know that God told us to stay away from fortune-tellers, (Dt 18.10-14) so the spirits that work with them, knowing that God prohibited this behavior, can’t be up to anything good. Best to stay away.'

Who was in Charge?
First of all, God came to the prophet on His own terms. Sometimes, God came after earnest prayer, most often He came when he wanted to. The prophet did not have God on a string, coming at his every call. Therefore, there were relatively few visions which were spread far apart. This does not mean that a prophet cannot get a vision every day or after every earnest prayer. But frequent visions were not the pattern. 

This is different from current channellers and psychics. They call up God at will. Become possessed at will. Ask "god" stupid questions and get equally stupid answers. Often, these gods have no problems encouraging people to commit adultery or to consult with the dead. Curiously, they seem to have a big problem with "narrow minded" people who obey the word of God in the Bible.

Scope and Content of the Vision
Finally, the visions were generally of national or cosmic consequences. God definitely gave messages to individuals, especially rulers. He gave messages of comfort, warning and deliverance to His people. He sometimes sent prophets to people of other beliefs because they were in danger of coming under His judgement. 
But the vast majority of visions were not, or never about, what shoes I should buy, what dress I should wear, whom I should marry, what job I should take, what to eat for dinner and utter nonsense about decisions that people should be able to make about their own lives.

But some false prophets appear to be frequently accurate, this is possible through at least three different methods:

1. Trick or magic using either science or technology.
2. Statistics and psychology. Through their art of communication, they can extract information from you. Or, their predictions are so general they will probably fit your situation. By observing your personality, they can immediately tell how you think and what are some of the problems that you most likely have. I can do this quite easily.
3. By their direct association with agents in the The Unseen World, gain the ability to acquire some supernatural knowledge and thus become false prophets. But because they are false prophets, their accuracy is not 100% and they blatantly contradict the Bible.

There are only three known methods by which God has given messages to the prophets.

• Direct face to face communication. God spoke to Moses in this manner.
• Dreams while the prophet is asleep.
• Visions when the prophet is awake.

Therefore, reading tea leaves, palms, stars, crystal balls and other devices are not allowed. 

I read Hagin’s book less than a year after I became a Christian, and was almost taken in by it. Thankfully, toward the end of the book, another quotation of Jesus gave me second thoughts. Jesus supposedly said this to Hagin: “If you will learn to follow this inward witness, I will help you in all the affairs of your life. If my children will listen to me, I will make them wealthy.”7 Even as a new Christian, who had scarcely begun my Biblical studies, I knew something was wrong with a Jesus who told Kenneth Hagin that He would make all Christians wealthy if they just followed an “inward witness” that was supposedly the voice of God! The Jesus of the Bible taught “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God” (Luke 6:20). Maybe this “Jesus” who appeared to Kenneth Hagin and threatened to kill pastors who wouldn’t listen and promised to make Christians wealthy if they would was not the Biblical Jesus! I decided to lay Hagin’s book aside and study the Bible. Especially since on the last page of Hagin’s book, Jesus supposedly told him that Christians were in charge of their own personal angels and were to directly order them around to do things like get money for us.8
Visiting Hell

Mary Baxter, an ordained Church of God minister, claims to have received new revelations and to have been commission by Jesus himself to write these so that the “world” will know them.9 Her book is replete with first person, direct quotations from Jesus, which she claims to be true and authoritative. She quotes Jesus, “My child, I will take you into hell by My Spirit, and I will show you many things which I want the world to know. I will appear to you many times; I will take your spirit out of your body and will actually take you to hell.
Baxter claims that Jesus revealed to her that hell is shaped like a woman’s body and resides in the middle of the earth. She writes, “Jesus spoke again, ‘Hell has a body (like a human form) lying on her back in the centre of the earth. Hell is shaped like a human — body very large and with many chambers of torment.’”11 didn't He inspire the Biblical writers to include this information in the Bible? And also, why wait until the twentieth century and reveal this to an American Pentecostal?
Since hell is supposedly in the form of a human body, Jesus took Baxter on a tour, one anatomical component at a time, starting with the left leg. In this compartment of hell are many individual pits with fire and brimstone with each pit holding a lost soul in the form of a skeleton crawling with worms, with a grey mist inside.12 On their tour, Jesus would bring Mary Baxter to individual souls in torment and they would conduct what amounted to an interview. The interviews reveal how and why these people were in hell. Here and elsewhere in the book, people in hell either reveal what they had done, or Jesus would tell them what they had done. They would also cry out to Jesus for mercy, but He would tell them it was too late and they should have repented when they were alive. As a result, His presence and discussions with them added to their torment and they often cursed Him when He refused to help.13
The compartments of hell did not contain human inhabitants alone. Satan himself dwelt there with a mass of demons each having appearances such as grizzly bears, monkeys, and various grotesque forms.14However, in contrast to the tormented human souls, the demons seem to be having a good time. Essentially, they are able to go about their evil business, be it discharging the commands of Satan or tormenting the souls of the damned.
Consider this description of Satan in hell: “Satan was standing with his back to us, and he was all aflame. But he was not being burned; rather, it was he who caused the fire. Now he stood engulfed in the flames, enjoying the cries of these poor, lost souls. As Satan moved his arms, great balls of fire shot from him.”25She further describes the situation: “Satan walked through the flames, and they could not burn him.”26Contrast this with the Gospels where Jesus indicated that the fire of hell was prepared for the devil, not that he was in charge of it and not touched by the fire. For example, “Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels’” (Matthew 25:41).
The idea that Satan is in charge of hell and enjoying the process of inflicting various torments on people is a fictitious notion that comes from popular folk religion but is not taught in the Bible. Part of the problem with Baxter’s book is that it never makes a clear distinction between hades and gehnna. Hades is the Greek word in the New Testament that is used for the place where the lost go upon death, awaiting the resurrection of the body for the final judgement. Gehnna is the final abode of the lost, which is also called the “lake of fire.” In Revelation 20 we find that hades is thrown into the lake of fire: “And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead which were in them; and they were judged, every one of them according to their deeds. And death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire” (Revelation 20:13,14).

A biblical Christian might say that he would compare what they say with what is presented in the Scriptures about Heaven. If it rings true to the Word of God, then it must be true. Well, yes and no. Yes, it must be true to Scripture. What is presented certainly cannot be at odds with what the Bible teaches about Heaven; nevertheless, just because it conforms to Scripture doesn't prove that the person's declaration or experience of being in Heaven actually took place.
I know a good deal about Heaven from my study of the Bible. If I told you that I had recently visited there and only communicated what I knew was recorded in the Bible about it, you couldn't object to what I said on the basis of my being biblically inaccurate. Accuracy, however, is not the only criterion for biblical discernment. There are many other instructions and examples that we must take into consideration. For example, the Apostle Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians 12 of a "man in Christ" (no doubt Paul himself) who was caught up to Heaven. He didn't know at the time whether it was an experience in which his spirit had left his body, or a vision while his spirit remained in his body. Nevertheless, he states that what he saw and heard in paradise was not lawful for a man to utter. Paul's experience was followed by a humbling infirmity, which he states that God allowed him to suffer "lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me. And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations..." (2 Corinthians:12:6-7)

That isn't always the case in Scripture. The Apostle John obviously was given permission to declare what he witnessed in Heaven in the Book of Revelation. This would seemingly apply as well to the writer of the Book of Job."

Too many links, lazy but  to put the proper referencing system, so some will be using Ong referencing system. Anyway you all know where to look ya to double confirm what I wrote.

Our faith is different from other faith. Though we have also rules to follow like other faith but what different is that we know why we follow those rules. Not just follow blindly. Indeed, often in our walk with God, we forgot why we do the things we do and don't do the things we don't do. The things that make me do what I do is not completely the fear of punishment or wanting reward it is because LOVE.

Let us share Christ and not Christianity. Even Gandhi, father of India said Give me Jesus but take away your Christianity. Indeed, sometimes in our eagerness to do the right things that we do the wrong things instead by doing the right things. Often the right things we think is right is actually not. In our walk with God, we must always remind ourselves lets become more Christ-likeness not Christians.

A lot people are saying the things the bible said like guard your tongue as the tongue  speak so the heart manifest and etc are works since we are forgiven dy or we can do lots of stuff since we are already forgiven and others stuff. It is because we love God, that we don't do certain stuff not simply because somewhere in the bible said no. If we follow rules without understand the meaning behind them then aren't we doing the same things as other religions? People often said as new believer, we no need follow the Ten Commandment because it work we don't work for our salvation. When I heard that I always said yes we don't do it out of work we do it out of love. It is because we love our neighbor that we don't rob them  and we don't worship other God because we love Heavenly Father not just simply we told to do so.

Love- The only Commandment

The Ten Commandment, it require every christian to follow them. Most people disagree, saying that is religion, we Chirstian are no longer bound by that commanments.


My friends, religion is doing what you don't know. So if you are following the commandments without knowing why than that is religion and you might as well don't do it.

The Ten Commandment to me is commandments of love. Commands which given and must be follow not through blind obidience motivate by fear , but rather obidience motivate by love.
For all those things naturally are things we don't normally do when we them. I mean if you love God, would you worship idols?


Never put the blames on spirits and devil whenever somethings wrong happened to you. I had heard of people saying devil tempt them to do wrongs things and put the blame on the devil for the wrong things they did. Seriously, these people should know, that sometimes when you face hardship it is just because it either part of life and should be accepted in a Christian manners or it is so the glory of God can be shown.

KKKKKKK

" If you shoot me, I am going to heaven. If not, I am going to church". This simple statement changed or rather reinforce my view on my belief. Such words are words from a married women whose husband tried to stop her from going church..These are the words we all should have whenever we are obstruct from going to church. Some people went through all their life thinking the reasons they held on to their beliefs are family and the community they lived in.

I personally slightly disagreed. True those are factors that influence you in choosing your belief, but the main reason why me or anyone hold on to their belief is and should be because personal conviction. It not just because I associate with many people of certain faith, but rather because I found that the belief I hold on to is truly means something for me.

In life, there are sometimes a need and necessary to make a stand not just in your belief but in your principles as well. No matter the cost, even if you have to stand alone.

For doing the right things are the only right things a guy can do.
