Christ is the Savior: Read and what's your view
(1) The Joy of the Lord is your strength. What do you care if the world ends in the year 5030 or above or below? What you must care about is the day you will die and leave this world because after death comes the final judgement on you which will determine where you will spend your eternity after you die? Once you die, it means the Kingdom of God in already at hand for you to be judged by God based on the way you lived your life on this earth throughout. Who, where, what and how is the way? Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. Nobody will live forever on this earth in his/her normal human flesh but God can save your body, spirit, soul etc while you are still in your normal human body here on earth/in this world. Just do well to avoid God's punishment because His punishment is hellish in nature. For instance, do you remember that there is a fiery furnace also called hell fire? Hell fire is the ultimate and final God's punishment.
According to John 3: 31-36
'HE WHO COMES FROM ABOVE IS GREATER THAN ALL. HE WHO IS FROM THE EARTH BELONGS TO THE EARTH AND SPEAKS ABOUT EARTHLY MATTERS, BUT HE WHO COMES FROM HEAVEN IS ABOVE ALL. HE TELLS WHAT HE HAS SEEN AND HEARD, YET NO ONE ACCEPTS HIS MESSAGE. BUT WHOEVER ACCEPTS HIS MESSAGE CONFIRMS BY THIS THAT GOD IS TRUTHFUL. THE ONE WHOM GOD HAS SENT SPEAKS GOD'S WORDS, BECAUSE GOD GIVES HIM THE FULLNESS OF HIS SPIRIT. THE FATHER LOVES HIS SON AND HAS PUT EVERYTHING IN HIS POWER. WHOEVER BELIEVES IN THE SON HAS ETERNAL LIFE; WHOEVER DISOBEYS THE SON WILL NOT HAVE LIFE, BUT WILL REMAIN UNDER GOD'S PUNISHMENT.'
(2) Nobody will live on this earth forever/for eternity and we all have to remember this. I am sure you know one or two persons or more that have died before now, just know that will be you one day. That's why the Heavenly race is called a personal race. Fight the good fight for your spirit, soul and body to forever belong to God Almighty. Go to where people mourn to remind you that you too will die one day no matter the level of riches you have or the level of poverty you live in now here on earth/in this world. Human wisdom, knowledge and understanding can't help you live your life in the way that is right by God. But the wisdom that comes from God can give you wisdom, knowledge and understanding that will help you live your life in the way of the Lord. The way of the Lord is Jesus Christ. Remember that: Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life.
According to Ecclesiastes 7: 1-29; 8:1
'A GOOD REPUTATION IS BETTER THAN EXPENSIVE PERFUME; AND THE DAY YOU DIE IS BETTER THAN THE DAY YOU ARE BORN. IT IS BETTER TO GO TO A HOME WHERE THERE IS MOURNING THAN TO ONE WHERE THERE IS A PARTY, BECAUSE THE LIVING SHOULD ALWAYS REMIND THEMSELVES THAT DEATH IS WAITING FOR US ALL. SORROW IS BETTER THAN LAUGHTER; IT MAY SADDEN YOUR FACE, BUT IT SHARPENS YOUR UNDERSTANDING. SOMEONE WHO IS ALWAYS THINKING ABOUT HAPPINESS IS A FOOL. A WISE PERSON THINKS ABOUT DEATH. IT IS BETTER TO HAVE WISE PEOPLE REPRIMAND YOU THAN TO HAVE STUPID PEOPLE SING YOUR PRAISES. WHEN A FOOL LAUGHS, IT IS LIKE THORNS CRACKLING IN A FIRE. IT DOESN'T MEAN A THING. YOU MAY BE WISE, BUT IF YOU CHEAT SOMEONE, YOU ARE ACTING LIKE A FOOL. IF YOU TAKE A BRIBE, YOU RUIN YOUR CHARACTER. THE END OF ANYTHING IS BETTER THAN ITS BEGINNING. PATIENCE IS BETTER THAN PRIDE. KEEP YOUR TEMPER UNDER CONTROL; IT IS FOOLISH TO HARBOUR A GRUDGE. NEVER ASK, "OH, WHY WERE THINGS SO MUCH BETTER IN THE OLD DAYS?" IT'S NOT AN INTELLIGENT QUESTION. EVERYONE WHO LIVES OUGHT TO BE WISE; IT IS AS GOOD AS RECEIVING AN INHERITANCE AND WILL GIVE YOU AS MUCH SECURITY AS MONEY CAN. WISDOM KEEPS YOU SAFE - THIS IS THE ADVANTAGE OF KNOWLEDGE. THINK ABOUT WHAT GOD HAS DONE. HOW CAN ANYONE STRAIGHTEN WHAT GOD HAS MADE CROOKED? WHEN THINGS ARE GOING WELL FOR YOU, BE GLAD, AND WHEN TROUBLE COMES, JUST REMEMBER: GOD SENDS BOTH HAPPINESS AND TROUBLE; YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT. MY LIFE HAS BEEN USELESS, BUT IN IT I HAVE SEEN EVERYTHING. SOME GOOD PEOPLE MAY DIE WHILE OTHERS LIVE ON, EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE EVIL. SO DON'T BE TOO GOOD OR TOO WISE - WHY KILL YOURSELF? BUT DON'T BE TOO WICKED OR TOO FOOLISH, EITHER - WHY DIE BEFORE YOU HAVE TO? AVOID BOTH EXTREMES. IF YOU HAVE REVERENCE FOR GOD, YOU WILL BE SUCCESSFUL ANYWAY. WISDOM DOES MORE FOR A PERSON THAN TEN RULERS CAN DO FOR A CITY. THERE IS NO ONE ON EARTH WHO DOES WHAT IS RIGHT ALL THE TIME AND NEVER MAKES A MISTAKE. DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO EVERYTHING PEOPLE SAY - YOU MAY HEAR YOUR SERVANT INSULTING YOU, AND YOU KNOW YOURSELF THAT YOU HAVE INSULTED OTHER PEOPLE MANY TIMES. I USED MY WISDOM TO TEST ALL OF THIS. I WAS DETERMINED TO BE WISE, BUT IT WAS BEYOND ME. HOW CAN ANYONE DISCOVER WHAT LIFE MEANS? IT IS TOO DEEP FOR US, TOO HARD TO UNDERSTAND. BUT I DEVOTED MYSELF TO KNOWLEDGE AND STUDY; I WAS DETERMINED TO FIND WISDOM AND THE ANSWERS TO MY QUESTIONS, AND TO LEARN HOW WICKED AND FOOLISH STUPIDITY IS. I FOUND SOMETHING MORE BITTER THAN DEATH - THE WOMAN WHO IS LIKE A TRAP. THE LOVE SHE OFFERS YOU WILL CATCH YOU LIKE A NET; AND HER ARMS ROUND YOU WILL HOLD YOU LIKE A CHAIN. A MAN WHO PLEASES GOD CAN GET AWAY, BUT SHE WILL CATCH THE SINNER. YES, SAID THE PHILOSOPHER, I FOUND THIS OUT LITTLE BY LITTLE WHILE I WAS LOOKING FOR ANSWERS. I HAVE LOOKED FOR OTHER ANSWERS BUT HAVE FOUND NONE. I FOUND ONE MAN IN A THOUSAND THAT I COULD RESPECT, BUT NOT ONE WOMAN. THIS IS ALL THAT I HAVE LEARNT: GOD MADE US PLAIN AND SIMPLE, BUT WE HAVE MADE OURSELVES VERY COMPLICATED. ONLY THE WISE KNOW WHAT THINGS REALLY MEAN. WISDOM MAKES THEM SMILE AND MAKES THEIR FROWN DISAPPEAR.'
(3) No one knows tomorrow except the things that God chooses to reveal to His chosen ones. For many are called but few are chosen.
NOTE THAT: WHETHER THE RIGHTEOUS ONE IS THE ACCUSED OR THE DEFENDANT, TALKING ABOUT SET UP IN THIS LIFE/WORLD WHERE ALL THE EVIDENCES BROUGHT AGAINST YOU HAVE BEEN TAMPERED WITH AND THERE ARE FALSE WITNESSES ("LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENS IN THE WORLD: SOMETIMES THE RIGHTEOUS GET THE PUNISHMENT OF THE WICKED, AND THE WICKED GET THE REWARD OF THE RIGHTEOUS. I SAY IT IS USELESS). REMEMBER THAT: "JESUS CHRIST IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE."
According to Ecclesiastes 8: 9-17; 9: 1-2
'I SAW ALL THIS WHEN I THOUGHT ABOUT THE THINGS THAT ARE DONE IN THIS WORLD, A WORLD WHERE SOME PEOPLE HAVE POWER AND OTHERS HAVE TO SUFFER UNDER THEM. YES, I HAVE SEEN THE WICKED BURIED AND IN THEIR GRAVES, BUT ON THE WAY BACK FROM THE CEMETERY PEOPLE PRAISE THEM IN THE VERY CITY WHERE THEY DID THEIR EVIL. IT IS USELESS. WHY DO PEOPLE COMMIT CRIMES SO READILY? BECAUSE CRIME IS NOT PUNISHED QUICKLY ENOUGH. A SINNER MAY COMMIT A HUNDRED CRIMES AND STILL LIVE. OH YES, I KNOW WHAT THEY SAY: "IF YOU OBEY GOD, EVERYTHING WILL BE ALL RIGHT, BUT IT WILL NOT GO WELL FOR THE WICKED. THEIR LIFE IS LIKE A SHADOW AND THEY WILL DIE YOUNG, BECAUSE THEY DO NOT OBEY GOD." BUT THIS IS NONSENSE. LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENS IN THE WORLD: SOMETIMES THE RIGHTEOUS GET THE PUNISHMENT OF THE WICKED, AND THE WICKED GET THE REWARD OF THE RIGHTEOUS. I SAY IT IS USELESS. SO I AM CONVINCED THAT WE SHOULD ENJOY OURSELVES, BECAUSE THE ONLY PLEASURE WE HAVE IN THIS LIFE IS EATING AND DRINKING AND ENJOYING OURSELVES. WE CAN AT LEAST DO THIS AS WE LABOUR DURING THE LIFE THAT GOD HAS GIVEN US IN THIS WORLD. WHENEVER I TRIED TO BECOME WISE AND LEARN WHAT GOES ON IN THE WORLD, I REALIZED THAT YOU COULD STAY AWAKE NIGHT AND DAY AND NEVER BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT GOD IS DOING. HOWEVER HARD YOU TRY, YOU WILL NEVER FIND OUT. THE WISE MAY CLAIM TO KNOW, BUT THEY DON'T. I THOUGHT LONG AND HARD ABOUT ALL THIS AND SAW THAT GOD CONTROLS THE ACTIONS OF WISE AND RIGHTEOUS PEOPLE, EVEN THEIR LOVE AND THEIR HATE. NO ONE KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT LIES AHEAD.'
(4) Follow Jesus Christ (God, the Son) who is the wisest of the wisest and so can detect your wrong doings and also show you the way of righteousness and cleansing for you to be put right with Him. Also, no problem/trouble/wahala is too much for God to save you from. Remember that: "Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life."
Sirach 2: 1-10
'MY CHILD, IF YOU ARE GOING TO SERVE THE LORD, BE PREPARED FOR TIMES WHEN YOU WILL BE PUT TO THE TEST. BE SINCERE AND DETERMINED. KEEP CALM WHEN TROUBLE COMES. STAY WITH THE LORD; NEVER ABANDON HIM, AND YOU WILL BE PROSPEROUS AT THE END OF YOUR DAYS. ACCEPT WHATEVER HAPPENS TO YOU. EVEN IF YOU SUFFER HUMILIATION, BE PATIENT. GOLD IS TESTED BY FIRE, AND HUMAN CHARACTER IS TESTED IN THE FURNACE OF HUMILIATION. TRUST THE LORD, AND HE WILL HELP YOU. WALK STRAIGHT IN HIS WAYS, AND PUT YOUR HOPE HIM. ALL YOU THAT FEAR THE LORD, WAIT FOR HIM TO SHOW YOU HIS MERCY. DO NOT TURN AWAY FROM HIM, OR YOU WILL FALL. ALL YOU THAT FEAR THE LORD, TRUST HIM, AND YOU WILL CERTAINLY BE REWARDED. ALL YOU THAT FEAR THE LORD, LOOK FORWARD TO HIS BLESSINGS OF MERCY AND ETERNAL HAPPINESS. THINK BACK TO THE ANCIENT GENERATIONS AND CONSIDER THIS: HAS THE LORD EVER DISAPPOINTED ANYONE WHO PUT HIS HOPE IN HIM? HAS THE LORD EVER ABANDONED ANYONE WHO HELD HIM IN CONSTANT REVERENCE? HAS THE LORD EVER IGNORED ANYONE WHO PRAYED TO HIM?'
(5) Be good to the genuinely poor people through the physical things you give to them. A hungry person can still be without resentment or anger no matter how desperate his or her situation may be so, never give a hungry man a cause for resentment or anger as we are instructed in the Holy Bible. This means that: "Not every hungry man is an angry man." Something or someone else triggers the anger, bitterness or resentment. What a hungry man may have already are troubles, distress and desperation. Showing kindness instigating the poor and the less privileged in the world paves way for your future through help from unexpected/expected places/persons to you. God created both the rich and poor alike in His own image and likeness. God can bless both the rich and the poor with the Holy Spirit of Wisdom, all you need do when they talk is listen. There are things you can do that can make God love you more than your own biological mother does (These things you can do are: Don't ignore the poor; the orphans; the widows; and those that are about to be wronged by the wicked/evil ones) and, this can only come from love. God is love and He teaches us to love too. Just remember that: "Jesus Christ (God, the Son) is the way, the truth and the life."
According to Sirach 3: 30-31; 4: 1-10
'GIVING TO THE POOR CAN MAKE UP FOR SINS, JUST AS WATER CAN PUT OUT A BLAZING FIRE. ANYONE WHO RESPONDS TO OTHERS WITH ACTS OF KINDNESS IS THINKING OF THE FUTURE, BECAUSE HE WILL FIND HELP IF HE EVER FALLS ON HARD TIMES. MY CHILD DON'T PREVENT THE POOR FROM MAKING A LIVING, OR KEEP THEM WAITING IN THEIR NEED. NEVER GIVE A HUNGRY PERSON ANY CAUSE FOR RESENTMENT OR ANGER. DON'T ADD TO THE TROUBLES OF SOMEONE WHO IS ALREADY DESPERATE. IF HE IS IN NEED, DON'T PUT OFF GIVING TO HIM. DON'T REFUSE TO HELP A BEGGAR WHO IS IN DISTRESS. DON'T TURN YOUR BACK ON A POOR PERSON OR GIVE HIM ANY REASON TO CURSE YOU. IF HE BECOMES SO BITTER THAT HE DOES CURSE YOU, HIS CREATOR WILL HEAR HIS PRAYER. MAKE YOURSELF POPULAR IN THE SYNAGOGUE. BOW YOUR HEAD TO MEN OF AUTHORITY. LISTEN TO WHAT THE POOR HAVE TO SAY, AND ANSWER THEM POLITELY. PROTECT PEOPLE FROM THOSE WHO WANT TO WRONG THEM AND BE FIRM IN YOUR JUDGEMENTS. BE LIKE A FATHER TO ORPHANS, AND PROVIDE WIDOWS WITH THE HELP THEIR HUSBANDS CAN NO LONGER GIVE THEM. THEN YOU WILL BE LIKE A CHILD OF THE MOST HIGH, AND HE WILL LOVE YOU MORE THAN YOUR OWN MOTHER DOES.'
(6) Jesus Christ asked everyone to:
THIS PARTICULAR FIRST STEP MAKES PEOPLE ENTER THE ETERNAL LIFE: Keep the commandments of God.
THIS PARTICULAR SECOND STEP MAKES PEOPLE PERFECT, MOST ESPECIALLY RICH PEOPLE: (a) Give money to the genuinely poor people gives one riches in heaven, (b) then follow Jesus Christ after starting your giving to the genuinely poor journey.
According to Matthew 19: 16-21
'ONCE A MAN CAME TO JESUS. "TEACHER," HE ASKED, "WHAT GOOD THING MUST I DO TO RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE?" "WHY DO YOU ASK ME CONCERNING WHAT IS GOOD?" ANSWERED JESUS. "THERE IS ONLY ONE WHO IS GOOD. KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS IF YOU WANT TO ENTER LIFE." "WHAT COMMAND-MENTS?" HE ASKED. JESUS ANSWERED, "DO NOT COMMIT MURDER; DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY; DO NOT STEAL; DO NOT ACCUSE ANYONE FALSELY; RESPECT YOUR FATHER AND YOUR MOTHER; AND LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOUR AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF." "I HAVE OBEYED ALL THESE COMMANDMENTS," THE YOUNG MAN REPLIED. "WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO DO?" JESUS SAID TO HIM, "IF YOU WANT TO BE PERFECT, GO AND SELL ALL YOU HAVE AND GIVE THE MONEY TO THE POOR, AND YOU WILL HAVE RICHES IN HEAVEN; THEN COME AND FOLLOW ME." WHEN THE YOUNG MAN HEARD THIS, HE WENT AWAY SAD, BECAUSE HE WAS VERY RICH.
