John 3: 16 For God so loved the
world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him
shall not perish but have eternal life. Do you think Jesus died just like that? And why should you even care if
someone 2000 years ago died? This movie illustrates the sorrow of a
father, who saved the train full of passengers, and sacrificed his son, just as Jesus died for us, most of us who do not know the meaning of the death of Jesus.
Do you even want to know why you are alive? Do we just live in this world, to enjoy ourselves or to fight for what we believe is true? Is what you believe even true, or you just choose not to believe the truth?
PETA spent all their efforts on animal rights, but what is the basis of their fight? Is it purely to stop animal cruelty? Then why even try to have porn website to raise awareness? I used to support their cause to stop animal cruelty until I noticed they have gone to the extreme of disregarding our own morality. God asked Adam and Eve to take care of the world and the creatures within, not abuse them; so God is asking us to manage our environment, as the environment and everything within it is not ours to begin with.
What is the basis of what you believe? Why do you fight for humanity values? Why do you fight against cruelties? Are we free to do whatever we feel it is right to do? Is there a strange voice in you which tell you to stop inequality in society? Have you seen the children in the orphanages? Have you seen the broken-up bodies of aborted infants? Have you seen the lives of those infected with AIDS? Have you met those who struggled to love because they were hurt? Have you met those who struggled to live on because they were thought as weird or anti-social?
We are not meant to do what we feel is right to do, as we just purely could not face the consequences of our selfish actions. We need care from others, we need love unconditionally, we need the warmth of a family, we need a guide for our conscience. The truth is there, even if you do not want to face it.
Yes, God and sin do not mix. Sin is why the society is breaking apart today, but God does not want us to be judgmental of the people we met, God sent His son Jesus to come and live among us, to show us the way to the meaning of life. Jesus called for us to not love the sins but to love every single person in this world, to care for every single person, yes, that includes every beggar on the street, every thief who broke into your house, every evil bosses that you have; His way is of the radical love so that every single person can be saved, are you ready?
This, is what being a Christian is about; to follow in His footsteps. It is hard, as we have natural tendency to be selfish since sin entered the world, that's why Christ sent the Holy Spirit to be the companion on the way, to walk with us within us. I am not perfect, I do not tick all the right boxes, I am prone to sins, but Abba Father loves me, and that's how I found that path for my life, the path that is intended for me as He leads me in His will. A Christian is always a growing Christian but never a perfect Christian.
