QUEST FOR JOY (FOR HOPE, PEACE AND LOVE)

Have you ever known true joy? Do you have this joy in your life right now? If you are longing for fulfillment, for true joy, please read on—this tract may assist you in your quest.

1. God Created Us For His Glory

“Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the end of the earth… whom I created for my glory” (Isaiah 43:6-7).

God made us to magnify his greatness—the way telescopes magnify stars. He created us to put his goodness and truth and beauty and wisdom and justice on display. The greatest display of God’s glory comes from deep delight in all that he is. This means that God gets the praise and we get the pleasure. God created us so that he is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him.


2. Every Human Should Live For God’s Glory

“So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31).

If God made us for his glory, clearly we should live for his glory. Our duty comes from his design. So our first obligation is to show God’s value by being satisfied with all that he is for us. This is the essence of loving God (Matthew 22:37) and trusting him (1 John 5:3-4) and being thankful to him (Psalm 100:2-4). It is the root of all true obedience, especially loving others (Colossians 1:4-5).

3. All of Us Have Failed to Glorify God as We Should

“All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23).

What does it mean to “fall short of the glory of God?” It means that none of us has trusted and treasured God the way we should. We have not been satisfied with his greatness and walked in his ways. We have sought our satisfaction in other things and have treated them as more valuable than God, which is the essence of idolatry (Romans 1:21-23). Since sin came into the world, we have all been deeply resistant to having God as our all-satisfying treasure (Ephesians 2:3). This is an appalling offense to the greatness of God (Jeremiah 2:12-13).

4. All Of Us Are Subject To God’s Just Condemnation

“For the wages of sin is death…” (Romans 6:23).

We have all belittled the glory of God. How? By preferring other things above him. By our ingratitude, distrust, and disobedience. So God is just in shutting us out from the enjoyment of his glory forever. “They will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might” (2 Thessalonians 1:9).

The word “hell” is used in the New Testament twelve times—eleven times by Jesus himself. It is not a myth created by dismal and angry preachers. It is a solemn warning from the Son of God who died to deliver sinners from its curse. We ignore it at great risk.

If the Bible stopped here in its analysis of the human condition, we would be doomed to a hopeless future. However, this is not where it stops…

5. God Sent His Only Son Jesus To Provide Eternal Life and Joy

“The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners…” (1 Timothy 1:15).

The good news is that Christ died for sinners like us. And he rose physically from the dead to validate the saving power of his death and to open the gates of eternal life and joy (1 Corinthians 15:20). This means God can acquit guilty sinners and still be just (Romans 3:25-26). “For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God” (1 Peter 3:18). Coming home to God is where all deep and lasting satisfaction is found.

6. The Benefits Purchased By The Death Of Christ Belong To Those Who Repent And Trust Him

“Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out” (Acts 3:19). “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved” (Acts 16:31).

“Repent” means to turn from all the deceitful promises of sin. “Faith” means being satisfied with all that God promised to be for us in Jesus. “Whoever believes in me,” Jesus says, “shall never thirst” (John 6:35). We do not earn our salvation. We cannot merit it (Romans 4:4-5). It is by grace through faith that we are saved (Ephesians 2:8-9). It is a free gift (Romans 3:24).

We will have it if we cherish it enough to receive it and treasure it above all things (Matthew 13:44). When we do that, God’s aim in creation is accomplished: He is glorified in us and we are satisfied in him—forever.

Does This Make Sense To You?

Do you desire the kind of gladness that comes from being satisfied with all that God is for you in Jesus? If so, then God is at work in your life.

What Should You Do?

Turn from the deceitful promises of sin. Call upon Jesus to save you from the guilt and punishment and bondage. “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved” (Romans 10:13). Start banking your hope on all that God is for you in Jesus. You can break the power of sin’s promises by putting your faith in the superior satisfaction of God’s promises. Begin reading the Bible to find his precious and very great promises, which can set you free (2 Peter 1:3-4). Find a Bible-believing church, and begin to worship and grow together with other people who treasure Christ above all things (Philippians 3:7).

[James307]

Ang cellphone laging hawak ipinapakita,
Ang Bible laging nakatago at ayaw ipakita.

Ang cellphone binibili kahit libo-libong halaga,
Ang Bible ayaw bilhin, kahit isang daan ang halaga.

Ang cellphone laging pinapalitan ng case,
Ang Bible hindi man lang mabilhan ng case.

Ang cellphone ay ayaw magasgasan,
Ang Bible hinahayaang maalikabukan.

Ang cellphone bihirang makaligtaan kung saan iniwan,
Ang Bible madaling makaligtaan kung saan naiwan.

Ang cellphone mahirap ipahiram, baka masira,
Ang Bible madaling ipahiram, kahit mawala.

Ang cellphone laging binabasa kung may bagong message,
Ang Bible hindi binabasa kaya hindi makita ang message.

Ang cellphone message masarap i-share.
Ang Bible verse nakakalimutang i-share.

Ang cellphone pinapakita ang lifestyle ng tao,
Ang Bible nagpapabago ng lifestyle ng tao.

Ang cellphone mabilis maluma,
Ang Bible hindi naluluma.

Ang cellphone message kung minsan ay late,
Ang Bible laging on time ang message.

Let us show them how.

JESUS SAVES!

[James307]

When you're tired and discourage from fruitless efforts,
God knows how hard you have tried.

When you've cried so long your heart is in anguish,
God Has counted your tears.

If you feel that your life is on hold and time passed you by,
God is waiting for you.

When you're lonely and your friends are to busy even for just a phone call,
God is by your side.

When you think you've tried everything and don't know where to turn.
God Has a solution.

When nothing makes sense and you're confuse or frustrated,
God Has the answer.

If suddenly your outlook is brighter and you find traces of hope,
God has whispered to you,

When things are going well and you have much to thank for,
God Has blessed you.

When something joyful happens and you're filled with awe,
God Has smiled upon you.

When you have a purpose to follow and a dream to fulfill
God Has opens your eyes and called you by name.

Remember that wherever you are and whatever you are facing.
God Knows!

JESUS SAVES!

TUNAY NA KRISTIANO O KRISTIANO KUNO?

*Ang maging tunay na Kristiano ay maging mananampalataya at tagasunod ni Kristo.

*Subalit hindi lahat ay Kristiano at tunay na Kristiano na sumusunod kay Kristo.

*Ang tunay na Kristiano ay naligtas sa biyaya ng Diyos sa pananampalataya kay Kristo Hesus.

*Ngunit may mga nanampalataya daw sa Kanya subalit masama ang kanilang mga bunga.

*Na ang tunay na Kristiano ay nangangaral at namumuhay ayon sa kalooban ng Diyos.

*Nakakalungkot na maraming dinaya si satanas ng mga relihiyon, tradisyon mali at gawang doktrina ng tao.

*Ang tunay na Kristiano ay handang tumanggap ng pagkakamali at ituwid ito mula sa Salita ng Diyos.

*Subalit ang Kristianong mapagmataas na nasa pagkakamali ay ibabagsak ng Diyos.

-Kaibigan, saan ka sa dalawang ito? Siyasatin mo ang iyong puso at tignan mo ang buhay ng isang tunay at isang bulaang Kristiano.


MGA MALING BINTANG SA MGA KRISTIANO

*Na wala daw sa gawa at puro lang pananampalataya?
Kakain ba siya kung hindi siya gagawa? At Kristiano ba ang hindi nagpapakita nito?

*Na nagbibigay upang yumaman ang pastor? O palakihin ang gusaling sambaan?
Ang pagbibigay ay para sa gawain ng Diyos at ito ay kusang loob hindi para sa sarili kundi para sa Diyos.

*Buhay na walang hanggan na pinanghahawakan ng mga Kristiano na eternal
Ito ay biblical at pangako ng Diyos lahat at pinapatawad niya ang mga sincere na humiingi para sa unti unting pagbabago.

*Na may mga hypocrite sa Church?
Kahit saan ka magtungo mapa skwela o pamahalaan may mga hypocrite.

*Mga Kristianong bumabagsak sa Kasalanan sinasadya o hindi,
Walang taong perpekto at hindi nagkakasala, subalit ang mga Kristiano ay pilit lumalakad ayon sa katwiran dahil sa pag- ibig nila sa Diyos.

*Mga Kristiano na hindi daw rumirespeto sa paniniwala ng iba?
Ang tanong ay kung ililigtas ng respeto ang kaluluwa ng tao na patungo sa impyerno? Dahil sa kasalanan at kamalian ng paniniwala.

*Masyadong nagpapakabanal at matuwid?
Dahil lumalakad ang isang Kristiano sa tama at naayon sa ikabubuti rin nito.

*Na pagiging stranghero sa mata ng mga hindi Kristiano o iwalay sa mga makasanlibutan.
Dahil ang isang tunay na Kristiano ay lumalakad sa Spiritu at Katotohanan.

-Kristiano, nakikita ng Diyos ang mga paglilingkod mo, pagpapakasakit at luha at sa langit gagantimpalaan niya ang pagtatapat mo.

TUNAY NA KRISTIANO KUMIKILOS

*Especial ang pagkatawag sa ating mga lingkod at mga anak ng Diyos.

*Na ating sampalatayanan si Kristo tayo ay pinagkalooban ng eternal na buhay sa langit.

*Subalit atin nawang ibalita ang pagliligtas ni Hesus sa krus ng kalbaryo sa iba upang sila rin ay tumanggap sa Kanya bilang Panginoon nila at Tagapagligtas.

*Tayo ay hindi sa sanlibutan kundi tayo sa sa pamilya ng Diyos at mamamayan ng langit.

*Wag nating sayangin ang pagkakataon na ang panahon at oras ay mahalaga.

*Sinong isusugo Niya? Sinong magsusuko ng buhay para sa Panginoon?
Kung hindi ngayon kailan ka pa maglilingkod? Kapag huli na ba ang lahat?

*Malaki man o maliit na paglilingkod ito ay mahalaga sa Diyos dahil kasama at kaisa ka sa dakilang gawaing ito.

-Atin nawang gamitin ang opportunidad na makapangaral maging sa internet sa forum o sa chat man, pagka’t kailangan ka nila at ng bawat kapatiran.

ANG KASALANAN DULOT AY PARUSA

*Pagsamba sa mga diyus-diyosan- na nagbunga ng sumpa sa bawat lahi at salinlahi.

*Korupsyon- na nagdulot ng kasiraan at kawalan sa tao.

*Krimen at kaguluhan- mga pagpatay maging sa mga inosenteng tao at pananakit sa mga tao.

*Droga, Alak, Sigarilyo at Sugal- mga kalayawan na nakakasira sa kinabukasan ng isang tao.

*Prostitusyon at Pangangalunya- Bunga ay sirang pamilya at karumihan.
*Diskriminasyon- na dulot ay hindi pagkakaisa ng mga tao at panghuhusga sa kapwa.

*Maling Doktrina- Pagkaligaw ng tao at pagkapahamak ng kaluluwa sa impyerno.

*Laban sa Kalikasan ng tao- ito ay ang pagiging bakla o tomboy na ginagawang lifestyle dahil sa kalayaan subalit mali at sanhi ng ka immoralidad, pag iilusyon at pagkukunwari.

-Masdan mo ang katotohanan hanggang kailan mag bubulag bulagan? At mag bibingibingihan? Pasama ng pasama ang mga tao at dahil dito kaya siya napapahamak at mahahatulan ayon sa ginawa niya dahil ang Diyos ay matuwid upang humatol.

REPOST:

Mga kaibigan at kapwa filipino, hangad mo ba ay pagbabago?

Maaring naiisip at nakikita mo na tila wala ng pag-asa dahil sa kahirapan at mga problema,

Wag kang maging negatibo bagkus isipin ang dapat gawin bilang maka- Diyos at maka- Bayan.

Gamitin ang karunungan at lakas na pinagkaloob ng maykapal sa tama! Sa moderno at makabagong panahon.

Wag tularan ang mga tamad at masasamang tao na hindi maganda ang halimbawa sa iba,

Ang mga pulitikong “corrupt”, mga durugista, sin***ato at mga terrorista.

Walang mangyayari kung patuloy tayong mag- iilahan pababa, magsiraan at magkakaroon ng dibisyon.

Simpleng buhay, nagkakaisa, payapa at nagmamahalan kahit ano pang lahi, tradisyon.

Bangon Pilipinas! Bangon kaibigan pinoy!, harapin ang katotohanan at realidad na kailangan tayong kumilos para sa pagbabago upang iligtas ang mga kabataan at nasirang moralidad ng mga tao.

Iboto ang tamang kandidato na mamumuno sa magandang halimbawa para sa kinabukasan,

Bata, matanda, mahirap man o mayaman, mahalaga ka kahit may kapansanan o sa tingin mo ikaw ang pinaka- kawawa. Sama- sama tayo!

Tayo ay mga filipino, tayo ay malaya, ipagmalaki mo sa ibang bansa kung ano at sino ka, “Isang Kristianong Filipino…”

Lahat tayo ay binigyan ng buhay at karapatang mabuhay ng normal, lahat tayo ay binigyan ng pagkakataon para pumili.

Iba- iba man ang ating kulay at ang ating mga lenguahe, tayo ay magkakapatid at iisa sa mabuting layunin para sa ikabubuti ng ating bayan.

Kaya iwaksi natin ang anumang masasamang pag uugali at gawi, ang pangit na side meron tayo.

Pakingan ang tinig at daing ng bawat pinoy at tulungan ang bawat isa, simulan natin sa ating sarili ang tunay na pagbabago.

Kung nais mong ikaw ay mapagpala at maging matagumpay ikaw ay magsikap na ating gawin ang matuwid hanggang kamatayan…
Hindi bukas o sa susunod na araw, taon o dekada, kundi “NGAYON”,

bilang nagmamahal sa bansang ating sinilangan, “BAYANG PILIPINAS”… kaibigang OFW kahit nasaan ka man kasama ka sa misyong ito.

(Please pass this message to all of your love ones, and fellow filipinos, if you love them and pro- change!,

And if you ignore this message because your selfish and you only show your self as ignorant then you’re a coward and traitor of our mother land “P H I L I P P I N E S”…)

-T R U T H S E T U S F R E E!

“Naniniwala ako na lahat ay pantay- pantay at may karapatang malaman ang katotohanan…”
