FAITH IN JESUS

I am happy and thanking God that He let me born in my family that i have now. I know, why He let me born there, because in my life He had planned the best thing for me, even the time i haven't created. He let me born in a family that know Him close. I also happy and proud to have Him in my life. Such a precious that i will never let go. He makes me the best thing in Him, no matter who i really am, no matter how bad i am. But He keep loving me and always strengthen me.

I know i am a sinful person who do not deserve to get a heaven and live with Him there. But, because He loves me that much. He sacrificed Himself on a cross, let people did bad thing and even i called it a very dishonorable thing to Him, who is actually a God. Everytime i watch "The Passion of Christ" i always realize, about how bad i am, what the good thing i ever do for Him, i am nothing in this world. As human that created by Him, i realize that i am nothing and i always need Him on my way.

A Christianity is not just a religion. But it is more than that. It is a picture of such a True Love that God has for us. In Bible written that "He came in this world to look for the lost sheep to rescue them".

It is not just we say "we believe in Jesus" but never pray and never love to read His words. Then, how can we believe without we listen and have communication with Him. All impossible. I already experienced it. I used to said "i believe in Him and all His words", but i rarely pray or even just read His words in Bible.

One day, God let me have a trouble in my life. And then what ? Did i just feel it calmly ? Did i feel all okay and never be afraid ? No. I felt so much afraid, i felt so worried about my life. Although that time i tried to convince myself that "hey you said you believe in Jesus, let everything happen and you just gonna be okay". But what i got ? No, i didn't feel alright at all when i was in that problem. I started to pray to Jesus, i cried, i asked Him to let me get through in that problem with Him beside me.

And then what, i felt better after i talked to Him, felt like someone had just took away my burden. I was still in that problem, but i felt inside was just a calm feeling, no more afraid, no more tears. All i let it passed, because i already believe and God looked like just talked to me to be just okay. I know that i have A Living Lord. My Lord, is not just a name. But He is here, He lives and always see every single things that i do in my life. Even i am alone like now in my room. But i believe His eyes are still on me. He is looking at me, and gives me so much love that even the closest person in my life, never gonna able to give me.

So read it, read all His words in Bible. Then you gonna be just okay. I feel it, sometimes i don't understand what Bible said to me when i read it, how it could be related to my life and what the words means. But then my Clergyman suggested me to just read, read even you don't know what Bible saying. Because the Holy Spirit will help you to understand every words there. And i always believe that "Everything i do in His name won't be just a waste".

"Kris, where will you go after you die ? Hell or Heaven ?" a friend of mine ever asked me this.
"There, to Heaven", i answered him.
"How could you answered that in so surely?", he asked me again.
"Of course i believe, you know what. I have no longer debt that can tied me in an eternal hell. Because my Father in heaven had paid fully for me since i haven't created in this world, but just only if you believe your life in Him then you are saved", i answered.

I wrote this all not try to made an arrogant thing to myself. Because i also realize that i am not a good person at all. If i have all in my life, then it is not because of me. But God made it for me. I hope you will live more in a way closer to Jesus. Try and you will find what actually a joy is. Joy that world gives is totally different with God gives. Joy that the world gives, last soon. But what about the Joy that God gives, it is eternal. Even if you are in such a big problem, you will always can feel the joy, and you won't get to know the reason why.

JESUS AS A BRIDGE

GOD created us to be with Him.
OUR sins seperate us from God.
SINS cannot be removed by good deeds.
PAYING the price for sin, Jesus died and rose again.
EVERYONE who trusts in Him alone has eternal life.
LIFE with Jesus starts now and last forever.

"He who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgement, but has passed from death into life." John 5:24

Jesus as a bridge to Heaven. Never means that Christian has 3 gods. No, never.
Christian has only a God.
Jesus Christ, God and Holy Spirit >> is God. Known in many names we called but the only 1 Lord we have.

I am asking You with all my heart
What is Your plan for me?
Why everything has to be like this
What i want, is not that hard for You

I know it You can do everything with Your power
I know it that You know my heart screams for it
You give chance to most people
But i beg You, give me that too

I am addicted and crazy for it
Please just for one time
Let me feel it and have it real
I lay my hope on Your hands

EASTER DAY. WHY HAVE TO BE HIM ?

Hey guys, Easter Day is here. :) In this Easter Day i want to share you something that i know.

You know what, i miss my hometown Church every Christmas and Easter come :D

Yeah, just last year i moved to this city and live alone.

I used to have party at Church with my Church kids :D. Hehehehe..

Well i was an "Guru Sekolah Minggu" that's what Indonesia says :D

I used to teach my students at Church every Sunday morning at 9am till 11.30am in the morning :D

I will be at Church at that time, played with them, told them about God, gave them some games & gifts, etc.

I miss them so much now. Well in this new city i am no longer become a Church teacher.

That is just what about me. So that's why  also write this for you all..

Easter day is here.. What is Easter ? Well Easter is a Glory for all people who believe in Him. In every Easter day, we celebrate His big and great love to us. That He gave us His love and life and died for us, to pay us for our sin. Who should die there ? It is us, not Him. because the bible wrote in Romans 6:23a.

Well here i will write the simple English, so that you all can understand it simply. "For the wages which sin pays is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Look at the bold sentences. There is written that because of our sin, we have to died. Died here talks about the time after our life is end, died here means Hell. So, what we have to pay of our sin is hell, died and hell.

But don't worry, He who is almighty already paid us for that. It is also written in Bible in Hebrews 9:22 "under the Law (Law of Jews) almost everything is purified by means of blood, and without the shedding of blood there is neither release from sin and its guilt nor the remission of the due and merited punishment for sins." >>>Without blood, there is no forgiveness.

And the question is "why Jesus's blood? why not other people's blood?"

And the answer is, Ecclesiastes 7:20 "Surely there is not a righteous man upon earth who does good and never sins." There is no people in this earth never do a sin. Even a new born baby, they already inherited with their paretns sin (because they are made from a contact body between man and woman). A sinfull blood can not pay a sin.

And a new question "then if a new born baby is already sinfull, what about Jesus ? He was also a baby before He became adults, and why He is not a sinfull person?"

And the answer is, Jesus was not made from a body contact between Joseph and Mary. Matthew 1:18 "Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place under these circumstances: When His mother Mary had been promised in marriage to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the power of the Holy Spirit." so Mary still virgin and got pregnant by the power from The Holy Spirit, not because a contact body. In Matthew 1:19, there at first after knowing it, Joseph planned to divorce quietly from Mary because he knew it that Mary was pregnant secretly behind him and he was not willing to expose Mary publicly into a shame and disgrace. What a good man. He even still cared with Mary's name and reputation.

And in the Matthew 1:20 again was saying "But as he (Joseph) was thinking this over, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, 'Joseph, descendant of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of  from the Holy Spirit" So this is the answer why have to be Jesus died for us, because He is pure. He was 100% man, but He is also 100% God, not made from a way like husband and wife do.

Jesus is 100% man, He lived in this earth 2000 thousands ago. And He really need food, feeling sad and hurt just like a pure human. Even at the beginning of His arrest, He also felt afraid. He cried and prayed at the Gethsemane. Hoping to passed all of those pain and suffering. But what He prayed ? Matthew 26:39 "And going a little farther, He threw Himself upon the ground on His face and prayed saying, My Father, if it is possible, let this cup (pain and suffering) pass away from Me, nevertheless, not what I will, not what I desire, but as You will and desire." See? How stong and obey. He became obedient unto death just because of us. And Matthew 17:23A "And they will kill Him, and He will be raised again on the third day." This is why i said about Easter is a Glory for us. Jesus who is God, the death could not take Him, and He showed it that He was the winner of the Death. He made the devil feel ashamed and defeated

He is Almighty, if He wanted to, He also could cancell all those suffering and pain, but because He loves us too much, He wants to be our saviour. And wants us to be with Him forever. Romans 3;24 "All are justified and made upright and in right standing with God, freely and gratuitously by His grace (His unmerited favor and mercy), through the redemption which is provided in Christ Jesus".

So now, do you believe in Him ? Romans 5:1A there are written "We are right because of our faith to Him". We are saved beacuse we believe in Him, we are right not because what we done in this life, not because how many kindness we did along life. But we saved only if we believed in His name and do all He wants. John 14:6 "Jesus said to him, I am the Way and the Truth and the Life, no one comes to the Father except by Me."
