SPEAK OUT

we were born with tounges and voices..those are meant to be used and not to be hidden..feel free to express and dont be afraid of people's opinions..coz' in the end of the day, all that matters to them is themselves..

What's the best future we can have?

       Many of us enrolled in the prestigious and excellent universities and entered on our respective courses...we do all of these because of the reason "I want to have the best future for me and my family"..no doubt,life now is getting harder and harder..food prices are hiking,gas prices are hiking,bills are hiking,everything is hiking..on my part, i can hardly imagine what my future brings..i dont have any idea how high prices are 10 or more years from now...As one of the Jehovah's witnesses, the best future that one can have is the God's kingdom..and that's we've been asking on our prayer for years based on matthew 6:9-13"You must pray then,this way: "Our Father in the heavens,let your name be sanctifed .Let your kingdom come .Let your will take place,as in heaven, also upon earth.Give us today our bread for this day; and forgive us our debts,as we also have forgiven our debtors. And do not bring us into temptation but deliver us from the wicked one." In this prayer, we mentioned in the first sentence that we shall sanctify the name of God. But how can we sanctify the name of God if we dont know His name?If you were asked, what's the name of our God?
       For sure,many will answer Jesus Christ..And that's the confusion of many..The name of God is intoduced in Psalms 83:18, " That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah, You alone are the most high over all the Earth". It is clear in the verse that the name of our one true God is Jehovah".(Let's discuss the origin,translation and evrything about the name og God on my other blogposts). If we read revelation 8:1, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, says Jehovah God, "the one who is and who was and is coming the Almighty.".Therefore, God is the Alpha and the Omega, which means that God has no beggining nor end. But the Colossians says,"He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all the creation." It is stated that Jesus Christ was the first creation or in other words he was created. Even on the existence of Jesus Christ here on Earth, he preached all the time about His Father..he humble himself under his Father in the heavens..
      I am not against Jesus,never in my whole life..I just want to explain the confusion about God and Jesus Christ..Jesus is our Saviour,he saved us from our sin..In fact,we need to praise our one true God and Jesus Christ.and if we do that, we can have the best gift ever, "the everlasting life"..John 17:3 says," This means everlasting life, their takig in knowledge of you, the only true God, and one of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ." The word of God, bible promised us that we can have the everlasting life and God never broke His promises. This is the only thing that we can assure inspite of the problems and challenges of life..:)Who doesn't want to have everlasting life?
