THE WAY - 16th SEPTEMBER 2008
Chapter One
True scientists have found, and proved through scientific tests, that everything in this universe is inter-connected as one. They call it the holographic universe and that branch of science is called Quantum Physics.
When Albert Einstein found out about quantum physics, he said it was like the rug has been pulled out from beneath one’s feet. Albert Einstein also said, “Science without religion is lame, and religion without science is blind.”
Charles Darwin knows that he based his theory of evolution on the limited knowledge of the single living cell being just a lump of jelly[1]. Today’s scientists have found that the theory of evolution doesn’t work anymore as they stand in awe at the complexity of a single-celled animal which propels itself by a tail which spins by a little electric motor at 10,000rpm, stops within a quarter of a turn and spins in the other direction[2]. The information rich of a one-celled animal disproves the theory of evolution, and they call it the intelligent universe.
So what is truth?
Chapter Two
The way of the truth is paved with sharing truths so as to receive more truths but truth is useless without love. A seeker of truth must always tell the truth so as to testify to it. Speaking truth liberates us, while knowing the truth sets us free. Free to love. New truths embraced with simplicity fills one with joy. Knowing the truth also gives us peace.
Yet there is no greater peace than knowing that Almighty God, who creates the heavens and the Earth, personally cares for each one of us and loves us more than we could ever love ourselves. In return for His great love He asks us to totally surrender ourselves, our whole being, our whole life to Him who is our one and only true love for eternity. Eternal life is knowing God Almighty personally and also knowing His Son Jesus Christ. For the Lord (God), Jesus (the man) and Christ (Christos, the power) is the way, the truth and the life. For this world was created by Him for His personal pleasure because He explicitly and always does the will of His Heavenly Father, our Heavenly Father.
Jesus died for us a terrible death on the cross so as to reconcile us to His Father. And when everything has been made subject to Him excluding His Father, then together we shall be called His brother so that God may be all in all, and we become sons of God. The God Head is not a closed family of three i.e. made up of God the Father, His Son Jesus Christ and God the Holy Spirit. The God Head is inclusive of all who do His Will and obey Him even to death. The Lord God is one. For there is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for others. Just like Jesus did, He freely laid down his life for us all. As the Son of God, He could have called a Legion of Angels who would have saved Him and stopped His crucifixion. But instead he did it freely, 2000 years ago, in obedience to His Father and for the love He has for every one of us who have ever been born or yet to be born on this planet Earth. He suffered the second death which means He was separated from His Father, with whom he has been for eternity while he was taking suffering on Himself, the sins of mankind and its consequence i.e. the death penalty so that we may have eternal life. But God raised Him up on the third day and He lives forever more.
As we realise that our life is a real mess in trying to sort out our own problems. And that we have failed miserably, we are to make a turn around, a “U” turn from the ways of flesh and give ourselves entirely into His hands. Love casts out all fears, especially when making a life-changing decision. By accepting that we are sinners and that we accept the free gift of salvation, through Jesus Christ who paid the price with His own blood, and second death. He was raised from the dead and lives again. He, as the living God, can enter into our hearts to renew our minds so as to make our souls a fit habitation for Almighty God. God is light and in Him there is no darkness. Eternal God is love and He loves you personally.
