Actor Ram Revilla Shot and Stabbed to Death! Life is short and we should not Waste It!

In this world, our lives can be taken anytime. We might be feeling now that we're in secure zone or situation, but without knowing it, with a blink of an eye, we're dead. That's why its very important for us to be insured, or should I say assured. What do I mean by that, you might ask?

Well, just hours ago, I've read in the news about a young actor who was killed in his house earlier this day. Ram Revilla, a 22-year old actor and a half-brother of present Senator Ramon "Bong" Revilla Jr., was shot and stabbed to death in his home in Paranaque City. He was rushed immediately to a nearby Medical Center in Paranaque but was declared dead on arrival by doctors. According to the news, a gunman entered to Ram's house in BF Homes and shot him. Her girlfriend Janelle Manahan, an actress, had also sustained a gunshot but is now under observation in the hospital. Investigators said that Ram might have been shot by a 9mm or 0.45 caliber pistol and was stabbed. No traces of robbery was seen in the scene of the crime for nothing was taken.

Senator Ramon "Bong" Revilla Jr.

After reading this news, I was saddened because of the fact that the guy was still young. Not only that he was about my age also but the thought about him still having a future as a young actor puts me in a dilemma that life is very short. Anytime, God can take it away. So it's up to us (and by His grace) on how we should spend our lives for His glory. Why do I say, "for His glory"? The answer to that my friend is found in Isaiah 43: 6-7,

⁶ I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’
   and to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’
Bring my sons from afar
   and my daughters from the ends of the earth—
⁷ everyone who is called by my name,
   whom I created for my glory,
   whom I formed and made.”

Do you see my friends? It's very clear that God made us for the glory of His name! Isn't that great? We have a purpose in this world! What do I mean when I say "glorify"? The straight answer to that is to praise God! Appreciate all that He has done! Give thanks to Him every day, every hour, and every second! So does that mean God needs us? The answer is definitely NO. We should first understand that God's glory is innate. Meaning, God is still glorious even without us giving Him the glory. By God's abundant love, He made you and me in His image. He wants us to enjoy Him. Have fellowship with Him. Isn't that great? The Creator of all things that have been made (I'm talking about things before sin entered) and ruler of the whole universe, wants to have a relationship with you! Will you not consider it?? Does it not make you excited?! Or joyful?

Image via Wikipedia

So now, I hope it's clear to all of us that we have a purpose. That is, to glorify God, and to enjoy Him forever! Now, what is the relation of that to the death of Ram Revilla? My friends, the lesson is not only that life is short, but the most important thing is, we should not waste it! Wasting it would mean enjoying other things more rather than God Himself! Do you enjoy money, fame, profession, career, power, beauty, intelligence, wisdom, entertainment, family or yourself more than God? If so, then I'm here to tell you that you are wasting your life! Its painful to hear that, but that's the truth. The real meaning of sin is enjoying and loving other things more than God. 

I hope and pray that God will open your eyes my friends! Indeed, none has ever glorified God in every second of their lives. Only by His grace and by the blood of Jesus Christ, we can glorify God! God bless!

World's Largest Ten Commandments Tablet VS God's glory revealed & magnified through His Word!

A New Record
A new Guinness World Record was awarded to Baguio City, Philippines, for having the world's largest replica of the bible's Ten Commandments tablet. Unveiling of the 152.90 square meters (1650 square feet) was done last Wednesday and inaugurated by Baguio City officials on top of the hill, which oversees the beautiful resort on the northern side of the city.

Image via Wikipedia

The Sponsor
Grace Galindez-Gupana, the sponsor behind the huge building-like structure, had also previously set the same Ten Commandments tablet in Manila way back in the year 2009. The new replica of God's law (whom God wrote using His fingers at Mount Sinai and handed down to Moses for the people of Israel to follow), toppled the previous world record being set. It was only 65 square meters. The new record  is almost two and a half times larger than the previous.

Importance?
This monument of the Ten Commandments definitely shows that Christianity is the major religion in the country. But may I ask you this, do you live accordingly to what was written by God in those two tablets? I would definitely say that you don't. And neither do I. As a matter of fact, we never loved the Lord our God with all of our mind, soul and strength in every second of our lives! And that's bad news!!! To whom? For you and for me. Why? Its simply because He is righteous and just! And we are wicked! And God is angry at the wicked everyday (Psalm 7:11)! And if He is angry, then we deserve eternal punishment in hell, for we deserve it!

So what's the importance of God's Word? Much in every way my friend! To give you some ideas, only through His Word we can know who God really is. What is His standards, rules, commandments, His entire being, His character, His glory, His magnificence, His beauty, His justice, His mercy, His grace, His love, His compassion, His power, His wisdom, His authority, His Kingdom and all the pleasures we can enjoy in being with Him!

In God's Word, we can have eternal life! Jesus Christ said in John 17:3,


"And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent." 

It means that we can enjoy eternal life by knowing God and Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour! And in His divine Word, we can be acquit, be justified and declared righteous before Him! That's good news!! Right? Yes, it is! But how can we be declared righteous before a Holy God for the bible said in Romans 3:10,

"As it is written: “None is righteous, no, not one."?


The answer is found in 1 Corinthians 5:21, it says..

"For He (God) has made Him (Jesus Christ), who knew no sin, to be sin for us; that we might become the righteousness of God in Him."


Now that's grace my friends! Pure grace from the Creator Himself! Giving to us a sacrificial lamb (Jesus Christ), who knew no sin (meaning, Jesus never sinned) that will bore or carry all His (God) wrath! (That's what we call the Doctrine of Substitutionary Atonement.) If confess and repent from all our sins, and truly believe in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour, that He died for all of our sins, then we can claim what God said in His Word. That we are now justified! Just as what Romans 8:1 says,

"There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."

So what is the importance of God's Word? It's the Glory of GOD for the salvation of the lost. =)

Miracle Baby, Saved by the grace of God!

Miracle Baby
Despite of the bad news that happened in Turkey, where a 7.2 magnitude earthquake shocked the country especially the city of Ercis which was most devastated, we could still praise and give thanks to God for the survivors who were rescued. Indeed it was a joyful and tearful moment for the family of a 2-week old baby girl who survived the tragic quake! I myself was amazed and praising the Lord after I read about this good news! God spared the lives of the baby together with her mother and grandmother who all have been trapped for three days in tons of concrete all piled up. The baby girl's name is Azra which means "purity" or "untouched" in Arabic. It was such a touching moment for rescuers and onlookers as they rescued the baby girl together with her mom and grandmother under the pouring rain. It was a miracle for everybody! And even for me! God is indeed at work! =)

How Do CAPTCHAs Separate Humans From Machines?

Have you ever wondered why every time you'd like to comment on an article, blog posts or download a file on different file sharing sites like 4shared and filesonic, CAPTCHAs always require you to enter some twisted and hard to decipher words? What's the purpose of those contorted words anyways? Well, for our own benefit and information, CAPTCHAs were invented by computer scientists to prevent spamming machines from posting such unwanted ads or links in sites. CAPTCHAs determine whether a visitor who tries to post is a human being or a computer. People who invented CAPTCHAs learned and observed that the easiest and effective way to block spamming machines is by using images of language. Spammers can be detected easily and be deceived by using such images of language that are texts in a randomly generated and uniquely constructed manner such that a human can hardly read it. But for a computer to decipher, it would be impossible.

A 7.2 Magnitude Quake Hit Turkey! Massive Devastation Resulted..

A 7.2 magnitude earthquake shaken the Eastern side of Turkey last Sunday near the border of Iran which resulted to a massive devastation of two cities. Ercis City which is located on the mountainous earthquake-prone area, was the one that acquired a lot of damages as houses and tall buildings tumbled down. More than 270 people were killed, and some survivors were dug out from the massive debris of concretes, bricks, metals and steel bars all piled up after the massive quake. Thousands of Turkish people were also injured in the tragedy. People that were blessed to survive the tragic happening were desperate in digging up their relatives and other people, who might be alive under the piles of rubble, using only their bare hands. According to the news, about 80 buildings collapsed in the city of Ercis.

More than a 100 after shocks were recorded on Monday morning according to the news, and 3 of them reached as high as 4.7 magnitude. In the US, scientist have even said that some after shocks recorded reached 6.0 magnitude. The authorities had already advised the public to stay away from buildings and houses that were damaged because due to many after shocks observed, those infrastructures might collapsed anytime. A number of 2000 and more teams were already deployed for a search-and-rescue operation, together with trained canines that may spot buried people.

Many countries around the world offered aid and assistance to Turkey. These countries include Azerbaijan, Iran, Bulgaria, Israel, Greece, Armenia and United States. Despite some conflicts of Israel and Armenia with Turkey, still the two countries gave a helping aid.
