Chris In Him

About half an hour ago complete network of Facebook (Facebook, WhatsApp & Instagram) went down. And the world is going crazy. Imagine if the internet itself is down. What would be the situation in the world? Today much of the information is stored and exchanged on internet using electronic and magnetic devices. And we are also abolishing paper usage in the name of safeguarding our trees and environment. See where we are heading? We are encouraging volatile and temporary things in the world and discouraging standard and permanent things.  This is the time for us to think about the real quality of the life we are living. We are embracing instantaneous things in place of long lasting and permanent things.  The same issue can occur with crypto currencies like BitCoin. Imagine what happens if all the money in the country just vanished in a second. Countries will go bankrupt and society will be paralyzed. Let's be cautious with internet, AI and their base, the electricity.

I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. - Ephesians 4:1-3 In the first three chapters of Ephesians, the Apostle Paul outlines the incredible spiritual blessings we have in Christ. In chapter 4, he shifts from doctrine to practice, urging believers to live out the reality of their faith. These verses provide a roadmap for maintaining the health of the church through personal character and communal commitment. 1. Walk worthy of the calling with which you were called Our "calling" is the invitation to belong to God’s family and participate in His kingdom. To walk worthy does not mean we are earning our salvation, but rather that our daily conduct should match the high status we have been given as children of God. It is a call to live a l...

Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you. - Matthew 5:11-12  

  “Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, - Ephesians 4:26 NKJV Dear brothers and sisters, We can be subject to our emotions and feelings. But the word of God commands us to keep away from sin at the same time. Many times we stay strong not to sin in our actions, but most of the times we are very weak in our reactions and go on to sin. 

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16   Few verses in Scripture capture the heart of God as clearly and powerfully as John 3:16. In a single sentence, God reveals His love, His sacrifice, His invitation, and His desire for every human being. Let’s walk through each part of this verse and uncover the depth behind every phrase. “God so loved the world” — A Love That Started Before We Did God’s love didn’t begin when we finally turned toward Him.   It didn’t begin when we prayed, repented, or changed our ways.   It didn’t even begin when we were born. God loved us before we ever loved Him. - His love is proactive  — He made the first move.   - His love is unconditional — not based on our performance.   - His love is original  — He loved us before anyone else ever could.   - His love is universal — “the world” includ...
