Sons Of God

What is a Christian? The question can be answered in many ways, but the richest answer I know is that a Christian is one who has God for his Father.
But cannot this be said of every man, Christian or not? Emphatically no! The idea that all men are children of God is not found in the Bible anywhere. The Old Testament shows God as the Father, not of all men, but of His own people, the seed of Abraham, 'Israel is my son, even my firstborn: and i say into thee, Let my son go...' (Exodus 4:22).
The New Testament has a world vision, but it too shows God as the Father, not of all men, but of those who, knowing themselves to be sinners, put their trust in the Lord Jesus Christ as their divine sin-bearer and master, and so become Abraham's spiritual seed. 'Ye are all sons of God, through faith, in Christ Jesus... ye all are one man in Christ Jesus. And if yes are Christ's then are ye Abraham's seed' (Galatians 3:26).
Sonship to God is not, therefore a universal status upon which everyone enters by natural birth, but a supernatural gift which one receives through receiving Jesus. 'No man cometh unto the Father' - in other words, is acknowledged by God as son - 'but by me' (John 14:6).
The gift of sonship to God becomes ours, not through being born, but thorough being born again. 'As many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe in His name: which were born, not of blood, not of the will of flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God' (John 1:12)

Valentine's Day

How many of you people really know the meaning of Valentine's day? Is it about giving and receiving?.. that will be Christmas right? is it about love? then let me ask you this, if February the 14th is about love how bout other days? if February the 14th is about special love, how bout 31st August or 25th December or 27th July? love is a special day for everyone regardless of the number of date. Well if you still want to know the truth i can't tell you here but i can show you some website for you to read.

LATE!!

when when when?? is always the question that we ask when we needed something or to know the time. but why is it that we know it is that day and time we tend to be late or even not coming at all? I can't answer that question and the answer is in you. First of all is your habit, secondly is people's attitude, thirdly, is it important? yes 3 subject for you to think about it yourself. Why and how. WHY? is to make sure you know your problem and HOW? is to make sure you figure out a way to solve the problem. Here is the glitch WE NEVER SOLVE THE PROBLEM AT ALL. How many people can change their habit in an instance? none How many people can change their attitude in 1 day? none How many people will take every meetings important even it is not so important? less than a handful. Now think again are you those people that come late? I do and I'm trying to solve this problem it wont take an instance or a day but it is progressing even if i cant make it I will at least inform the person in charge that i cannot come.
