100 Points to Heaven

A man dies and goes to heaven.
As usual, St. Peter meets him at the pearly gates.

St. Peter says, “Here’s how it works.
You need 100 points to make it into heaven.
You tell me all the good things you’ve done, and I give you a certain number of points for each item, depending on how good it was. When you reach 100 points, you get in.”

“Okay” the man says, “I attended church every Sunday”
“That’s good, says St. Peter, “that’s worth two points”

“Two points?” he says.
“Well, I gave 10% of all my earnings to the church”
“Well, let’s see,” answers St. Peter, “that’s worth another 2 points. Did you do anything else?”

“Two points? Golly. How about this: I started a soup kitchen in my city and worked in a shelter for homeless veterans.”

“Fantastic, that’s certainly worth a point, ” St. Peter says.

“Hmmm…,” the man says, “I was married to the same woman for 50 years and never cheated on her, even in my heart.”

“That’s wonderful,” says St. Peter, “that’s worth three points!”

“THREE POINTS!!” the man cries,
“At this rate the only way I get into heaven is by the grace of God!”

St. Peter replies with a smile:
“Now you may come on in!”

Jesus is watching you

Here's a funny story that you should get a laugh out of =)

A burglar broke into a house one night. He shined his flashlight around, looking for valuables, and when he picked up a CD player to place in his sack, a strange, disembodied voice echoed from the dark saying, "Jesus is watching you."

He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his flashlight out, and froze. When he heard nothing more after a bit, he shook his head, promised himself a vacation after the next big score, then clicked the light on and began searching for more valuables.

Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires, clear as a bell he heard, "Jesus is watching you."

Freaked out, he shone his light around frantically, looking for the source of the voice. Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight beam came to rest on a parrot.

"Did you say that?" He hissed at the parrot.

"Yep," the parrot confessed, then squawked, "I'm just trying to warn you."

The burglar relaxed. "Warn me, huh? Who in the world are you?"

"Moses," replied the bird.

"Moses?" the burglar laughed. "What kind of people would name a bird Moses?"

"The kind of people that would name a Rottweiler, Jesus."

Tension

The moment you are in tension
You will lose your attention,
Then you are in total confusion
and u'll feel irritation

This may spoil your personal relation
Ultimately, you won't get Co-operation
And get things into complication
Then your BP may raise Caution
And you may have to take medication

Why not try understanding the situation????
And try to think about the solution
Many problem will be solved by Discussion
Which will work out in better profession

Don't think it's my free suggestion
It is only for your prevention
If you understand my intention
You'll never come again into tension!!!!!

WE BELIEVE

WE BELIEVE…the entire Bible is inspired by God, without error and the authority on which we base our faith, conduct and doctrine.

WE BELIEVE… We believe in the universal sinfulness of all men since the Fall, rendering man subject to God's wrath and condemnation.

WE BELIEVE…in one God who exists in three distinct persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God who came to this earth as Savior of the world.

WE BELIEVE…Jesus died on the cross and shed His blood for our sins. We believe Jesus rose from the dead and is coming again. We believe that eternal salvation is found only by placing our faith in Jesus Christ and what He did for us on the cross.

WE BELIEVE…water baptism is a symbol of the cleansing power of the blood of Christ and an outward testimony to our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. We believe in the baptism of believers in water in obedience to the command of Christ

WE BELIEVE…in the regular taking of Communion as an act of remembering what the Lord Jesus did for us on the cross.

WE BELIEVE…that the Gospel embraces the needs of the whole man and that the Church is therefore commissioned to preach the gospel to the world and to fulfill a ministry of healing and deliverance to the spiritual and physical needs of mankind.

WE BELIEVE…every believer should be in a growing relationship with Jesus by obeying God’s Word, yielding to the Holy Spirit and by being conformed to the image of Christ.

WE BELIEVE…as children of God, we are overcomers and more than conquerors and God intends for each of us to experience the abundant life He has in store for us.

WE BELIEVE… in the personal, physical and visible return of the Lord Jesus Christ to reign in power and glory.

WE BELIEVE…in the resurrection of the dead and in the final judgment of the world, the eternal conscious bliss of the righteous and the eternal conscious punishment of the wicked.

The God of Peace

"Now the God of Peace be with you all."-- Rom_15:33.
"Having made peace through the blood of His Cross."-- Col_1:20.

WE ALL need Peace! There are sources of Peace which are common to all men. The peace of a happy home; of an increasing business and enlarging influence; of the respect and love of our fellows. As a man is conscious of these, he is inclined to say with Job, "I shall die in my nest." We can all understand a peace like that; but there is a "peace that passed understanding." It is too deep for words. It is like the pillowed depths of the ocean, which are undisturbed by the passing storm.

Here is a sufferer, almost always in acute pain, and needing constant attention, and yet so happy. Joy and Peace, like guardian angels, sit by that bedside; and Hope, not blindfolded, touches all the strings of the lyre, and sheds sunshine, --how do you account for it? Let the sceptic and the scoffer answer! Here is a peace that passes understanding which comes from the God of Peace.
For the Christian soul there is a silver lining in every cloud; a blue patch in the darkest sky; a turn in the longest lane; a mountain view which shall compensate the steepest ascent. Wait on the Lord, and keep His way, and He shall exalt thee to inherit the land. 

 

The thing impossible shall be; because all things are possible to God.
The peace of God is the peace of the Divine Nature---the very tranquillity which prevails in the heart of the God of Peace. It was of this that Jesus spoke when He said, "My peace I give unto you"; for His own being was filled and blessed with it during His earthly career. "The Lord of Peace Himself give you peace always."
There are three things against which we must ever be on our guard lest they rob us of our peace. First, unconfessed sin; second, worry; third, the permission of an unrebuked selfish principle. The Apostle says, "Let the Peace of God rule in your hearts." The Greek word means arbitrate. Let God's Peace act as umpire.
We shall not escape life's discipline. We may expect to abound here, and to be abased there. But amid all, God's Peace, like a white-winged sentinel angel, shall come down to garrison our heart with its affections, and our mind with its thoughts.

PRAYER
I humbly ask, O God, that Thy Peace may be the garrison of my heart and mind; that it may ever rule within me, asserting itself over the tumultuous passions that arise within. And out of this Peace may I arise to serve Thee. AMEN.

Place in Heaven (Joke)

A minister dies and, resplendent in his clerical collar and colorful robes, is waiting in line at the Pearly Gates.
Just ahead of him is a guy dressed in sunglasses, a loud shirt, leather jacket, and jeans.
Saint Peter addresses this guy, “Who are you, so that I may know whether or not to admit you to the Kingdom of Heaven?”
The guy replies, “I’m Joe Green, taxi driver, of New York City!”
Saint Peter consults his list.
He smiles and says to the taxi driver, “Take this silken robe and golden staff, and enter into the Kingdom.”
The taxi driver goes into Heaven with his robe and staff.

And now the minister is at the first of the line.
He stands erect and, without being asked, proclaims, “I am Joseph Snow, head pastor of Saint Mary’s for the last forty-three years!”
Saint Peter consults his list.
Looking up, he says to the minister, “Take this cotton robe and wooden staff and enter the Kingdom of Heaven.”
“Just a minute,” says the minister. “That man was a taxi driver, and you issued him a silken robe and golden staff, but I get wood and cotton. How can this be?”

“Up here, we work by results,” says Saint Peter.
“While you preached, people slept; while he drove, people prayed.”

KNOCKED DOWN, BUT NOT OUT!

We admired the boxer who was knocked down during the fight, yet got up and in the end still won by knocking out the opponent!

Actually, every child of God suffered knocked down in his life, even many knockdowns -- both physical and spiritual.

As Paul wrote:

"We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed" (2 Cor. 4:8-9, ESV).

During our time, the sons of light may even suffer more afflictions than the "sons of disobedience" (Eph. 2:2).

But those who believe in the Light, who put their trust in Jesus -- who "become sons of light" (John 12:36) -- though they would suffer affliction, perplexity, persecution, or many knockdowns, they would never be knocked out!

Notice what Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 4:1, "...we do not lose heart." Again, in verse 16, "So we do not lose heart..."

They do not lose heart, because the "surpassing power" that prevented them to be crushed, or driven to despair, or be forsaken, or be destroyed "belongs to God" and not to them (verse 7)!

You could knock them down, but the Sovereign Referee will never count them out!

HIS ENDLESS LOVE

I abled to wrote my poem for you
But all words let go
I tried to sung our love song
But the lyrics is hurt me so

My Poem say" Only REminds Me of you"
MY Song Melody's is hard, Your the first note i'll never reached,
And now i found me, reaching out to you,
that things so so oh'h hard me so..

The heart beat of mine poems you
My mind it's Tuned you
My soul is longs for you
cause my strenght is only you

Now you say you Loved me so
and makes mylife music
In my poem That never fade away,
Unto God song endless love is true

THE PAST

I must been loved
and must been hurts
felt lots of happiness
after all so painful, painfulness

I wished all i could be
And became nothing
Promises fly like a bee
Don't know what Direction I'll rathered be

Indeed only to always
think of you
In imagination can see you through
For mind it's closed to you
somewhat i Moved on too.

and LET that my God
Lead me to LOVE another You.

"TAKE JOY IN THE GOD OF MY SALVATION"

We read in Habakkuk 3:18, "...yet I will rejoice in the LORD; I will take joy in the God of my salvation" (ESV).

When I was a kid, I got joy in my toys. I got joy from games and playmates. I was thrilled also by some magic tricks of my father.

There was also gladness in my heart when my parents would brought me to the movies.

As years went by, I found enjoyment also in various ways. I enjoyed reading comics, eating fried fish, listening to the stories of my parents, especially of my father.

I got joy also when I received high grades in class, when I was in the company of my friends, or when my first writing was published.

When I started to become interested in the Bible, there was also joy in my heart. I got joy, then, in trying to know what the Book would say about the future.

Unfortunately, I reached the point in my life that I took joy in some beliefs, like the punishment in hell would end, though the Bible clearly states, "They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever" (Rev. 20:10, NIV).

Where do you take also your joy?

In material or physical possessions? In such beliefs, which clearly contradicted by the Scripture, as: everyone is going to be saved, all are children of God, or the punishment in hell is not eternal?

Should we not imitate Habakkuk -- "take joy in... God"? Should we not rejoice in the Lord, instead?

As we also read in Isaiah 61:10 --

"I delight greatly in the LORD;
my soul rejoices in my God.
For he has clothed me with garments of salvation
and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness,
as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest,
and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels" (NIV).

Hope

Your not who you think you are
you look down upon yourself,
You always fall before the sun rises
you fight in the dark, You always try,
but you always fall before you hit the sun.

I am your guardian angel the one who wants to
see you rise, see you shine with the sun
see who you really are in the light.

How can you judge yourself in the dark
if you never see yourself in the sun,
Then how can you know who you really are.

All the time your so hard upon yourself,
You beat yourself down because you think
your a failure but i got news for you,
you got it in you and i believe in you.

"... THE LORD KNOWS HOW TO RESCUE..."

"...the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment" (2 Peter 2:9, ESV).

That's wonderful assurance for the godly -- those who are clothed with the righteousness of Christ. God knows how to rescue them from trials. The situation could be apparently hopeless. But God knows how to save them.

However, notice also the last part: "...to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment."

God knows also how to keep the unbelievers "under punishment until the day of judgment." Notice that it does not say, "God will reform or purify the unrighteous..." Contrary to those who teach that everyone will be saved, the unrighteous will be punished! And nowhere in God's Word we could read that their punishment is temporary. "...For them the gloom of utter darkness has been reserved," as we read in the last part of verse 17.

Really, we need to have faith in the Son, so we be clothed with His righteousness.
