Scientists and God..

Suddenly this story pop out in my mind as I read a book this morning. I heard this story from a sermon many years ago ( sorry, i forgot when and where).

There are a group of scientist who want to challenge God on how to create a man from the soil. So these scientist practice very hard to make a man from the soil until one day they finally successfully make a man from the soil. They a very happy of being able to prove that human also can create a man on their own..

So the day where these scientists want to show their creation has come. God ask them to show how they made their creation first. 

Scientist 1: We are very proud that we finally can prove that we also can create human from soils.
Scientist 2: Watch it out..

So the scientists took a soil then, phosphate, calcium, sodium, potassium and everything needed to create a man.
They are very careful in mixing up those component so that a perfect human can be made. 

The Lord watch and suddenly say: "Wait,wait... Is that soils? Thats is My Creation. I created it long ago when I created this world. You can't use that to create human because that is my creation. You have to create your own soil"

So the scientists confused.. How do they make soil.. Everything in this world is His.. 

Genesis 1 & 2.

Believe In Yourself

Believe that you have
the destiny, the innate ability,
to become all
you expect of life.
You may going through
some difficult time,
wondering about how things will turn out.
Find the meaning of life's
struggles and accomplishments.
Don't put away the
dreams inside you.
Be hopeful and determine
to make yourself exactly
what you want to be.
Believe in yourself....
Nothing is beyond
your reach.

A LETTER TO YOU FROM SATAN

A LETTER TO YOU FROM SATAN
I saw you yesterday as you began your daily chores. You awoke without kneeling to pray. As a matter of fact, you didn't even bless your meals, or pray before going to bed last night. You are so unthankful, I like that about you. I cannot tell you how glad I am that you have not changed your way of living, Fool, you are mine. 


Remember,you and I have been going steady for years. and I still don't love you yet. As a matter of fact, I hate you, because I hate God. I am only using you to get even with God. He kicked me out of heaven, and I'm going to use you as long as possible to pay him back. 


You see, Fool, GOD LOVES YOU and He has great plans in store for you. But you have yielded your life to me, and I'm going to make your life a living hell. That way, we'll be together twice. This will really hurt God. 
Thanks to you, I'm really showing Him who's boss in your life with all of the good times we've had. We have been watching dirty movies, cursing people out, stealing, lying, being hypocritical, fornicating, overeating, telling dirty jokes, gossiping, being judgmental, back stabbing people, disrespecting adults, and those in leadership positions, no respect for the Church, bad attitudes. 


SURELY you don't want to give all this up. Come on, Fool, let's burn together forever. I've got some hot plans for us. This is just a letter of appreciationfrom me to you. I'd like to say "THANKS" for letting me use you for most of your foolish life. 


You are so gullible, I laugh at you. When you are tempted to sin, you give in HA HA HA, you make me sick. Sin is beginning to take it's toll on your life. You look 20 years older, and now, I need new blood. So go ahead and teach some children how to sin. All you have to do is smoke, get drunk or drink while under-aged, cheat, gamble, gossip, fornicate, and live being as selfish as possible. 


Do all of this in the presence of children and they will do it too. Kids are like that. 


Well, Fool, I have to let you go for now. I'll be back in a couple of seconds to tempt you again. If you were smart, you would run somewhere, confess you sins, and live for God with what little bit of life that you have left. It's not my nature to warn anyone, but to be your age and still sinning, it's becoming a bit ridiculous. Don't get me wrong, I still hate you. 



IT'S JUST THAT YOU'D MAKE A BETTER FOOL FOR CHRIST.




Note: My friend sent this to me through email. But I can't forward it to anybody since my mail address book can be count by fingers.. So as a solution i copy paste it here in my blog..

Christmas Is Coming - Caroling

Christmas is always fun celebrated various ethnics and nations in the world. It also celebrated in various ways according their respective church leaders/movers. Christmas may have caroling, sports, home visiting, various contests, gathering of family and more importantly it is a time where we think about GOD's love where He sent His only begotten Son so that that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16).

As Christmas is coming this year I'm moved to share something about caroling.. I remember the first time i joined caroling, it was just so fun. So fun being with friends, being able to visit church members' house and it is so fun to eat foods as many as you can. I still remember the experience where we had to face the rain and flood just to go to the next village to carol there. As i think about it again, I smiled.

Now come to the topic. Why should we carol? Why should we face the obstacles? Is is just to be able being with friends? Being able to visit friends' house? Being able to eat many foods? 

Yup!! It is(hiiiiii :) - my perspective)!! But the most important thing is that we carol because we want to delivered the remembrance message that Jesus Christ is born so save us more than 2000 years ago to the people around us. More over we want to pray for that particular family/house so that the joy of celebrating christmas is there with them and many more which is related.. 

When Jesus is born more than 2000 years ago, the 1st caroling team is already been there. See Luke 2:9-14.

Luke 2:9-14
9An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. 11Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ[a] the Lord. 12This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."

 13Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,


 14"Glory to God in the highest,


      and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."


Text copy pasted from 
Indonesian Version: Click Here






See? The first caroling team is a company of angels. They say/sing "glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests". Is there any carol song like this one that you know?



What I'm trying to tell is that we have the basis "Word Of God" in doing caroling..



Thanks for reading.
